Anime based on Kōichi Kusano's online manga to premiere next month
Starchild Records, the anime label of the music company King Records, began streaming a television commercial for the Oniichan no Koto Nanka Zenzen Suki Janain Dakara ne—!! anime series on Tuesday. http://www.starchild.co.jp/special/oniichan/
The anime adapts Kōichi Kusano's online manga of the same name, which centers around the "slightly dangerous relationship" between Shūsuke (Toshiyuki Toyonaga), a boy who likes risque books and DVDs, and Nao (Eri Kitamura), Shūsuke's younger sister. The anime will premiere in Japan next month.
This Ugly Yet Beautiful World
DVD 3: Red Swarm
Boring on-disc extras for this outing: clean opening and closing, a Japanese advertisement, and ADV previews. Interesting extras: informative translator's notes that explain some of the hairier translation problems and cultural references, and an always-welcome half-hour Japanese television interview with director Shouji Saeki.
