The screening will feature the first two episodes of the anime series, which is based on the Paradox Live music project.

Taku Iwasaki (Bungo Stray Dogs, The Irregular at Magic High School) composed the music for the anime.
A synopsis for the show reads:
Paradox Live THE ANIMATION is directed by Naoya Ando and features animation production by PINE JAM. The story of the series follows the contestants in a near-future competition that pits young rap and hip-hop artists against each other for fame and fortune, in a Japan where hip-hop and rap culture became the dominant form of pop culture and expression. The performers in each group bear a piece of "phantometal"—an accessory that reacts with their DNA to create brilliant illusions as they perform to excite the crowd and drive more attention to their respective groups.
