Welcome to Mars, We hope you enjoy your stay...

MARS: B e y o n d  2 1 0 0
'Mars: Beyond 2100' is a roughly 22-minute AI-generated anime short film that was released on X (formerly Twitter) around May 17, 2026 (local time).

The director is Aiden Guo (@aidenguoai). He is a professional animator who has worked on commercial anime such as 'ONE PIECE' episode 1024 and 'Dandadan' episode 4, and is planning the 'Mars Series.' The producer is Jason W.

The voice actors are human Japanese cast members (Penya Beatrice Hoshino: @jiena_gaim, Yuan Shuai: @Teru_Ikuta, etc.), and the sound mixing is also professionally done, but most of the visuals and animation were generated using AI tools.
