White Manju Bun · 2007-08-21, 11:36

hmmmm two guys handcuffed together...holding a gun...got my attn. Wonder what this is gonna be about.

Kouji · 2007-08-21, 11:42

Well, we'll see soon enough

. Though, it'll be a OVA (at the moment).

White Manju Bun · 2007-08-21, 11:58

Well according to mangaupdates this is the summary for the manga

"In the big city, drug crimes run rampant. Eto Kai and Kurabayashi Haru are two newcomer investigators who fight against them. In order to save people from modern society; poisoned with drugs, the two turn to face an invisible enemy..."

Its 10+ vols. I wonder how many epis the OVA is gonna be.

Kouji · 2007-08-21, 19:15

Well, an OVA series can go as much as 13 (Max). And a minimum count of 6.

Monkey D. Luffy · 2007-08-26, 12:58

-KarumA- · 2008-08-29, 06:59

YEH SWITCH! and Junjun as Kai OMGISH! XD
When I was reading this I was already hoping that it would be an anime!

LKK · 2008-09-18, 11:09

ANN has an article with links to a Switch trailer that shows some of the animation. (The first trailer had still images only.) No voice acting samples though, just the OP song. (Rats.

)

LKK · 2008-10-03, 14:38

ANN has an article with links to a streaming site that's showing the opening sequence for the first OVA.

LKK · 2008-10-17, 10:59

ANN has a new article with links to a new promo of the upcoming OVA. This promo includes sample dialogue.

Mei19 · 2008-10-17, 17:21

Is this Yaoi or shounen ai? >__<

LKK · 2008-10-17, 17:58

No, it's a cop show about narcotics investigators. Some readers who are inclined to slash see some shounen-ai undertones in the manga. However, I don't. (I'm not opposed to slash, yaoi, or shounen-ai. I simply don't see it in Switch.)

its because Naked Ape draws a lot of yaoi doujinshi's and even made one for Switch XD ha ha

Nervous Venus · 2008-10-23, 16:46

That picture is a bit weird. The artwork was amazing for the comic though. I wonder how it'll translate on screen. (Yes, I know there are trailers. I just can't view them at work.)

I knew Naked Ape had done yaoi manga & doujinshi, but I wasn't aware that they'd done one for their Switch series. I may have to look into that.

LKK · 2008-10-24, 11:01

Another new streaming link from ANN. This time, it's the first 13 minutes of the first half of the first volume that released today in Japan.
