Where it came from
Shangri-La was originally published in 2005 by Kadokawa Shoten as a science fiction light novel written by Eiichi Ikegami. Set in a near-future Tokyo transformed into a massive carbon-neutral forest city following global warming, the narrative explores themes of environmentalism, urban politics, and the tension between traditional society and counter-culture movements.
The work is noted for its imaginative world-building, which blends cyberpunk aesthetics with radical ecological concepts. Its success as a novel led to a manga adaptation and a prominent 2009 anime series by studio Gonzo. The design and stylistic direction throughout these iterations emphasize a contrast between the organic, vine-covered ruins of the city and the high-tech, bureaucratic layers of state control.
