Nagasarete Airantou
Genre: Comedy, Romance Expected Release Date: April 2007 Website: http://www.starchild.co.jp/special/airantou/ The series is based on a manga by Fujishiro Takeshi which is serialised in Monthly Shounen Gangan. What has me interested in the series is the synopsis, rather, the last line of the synopsis. The synopsis is taken from AniDB: Ikuto Touhohin just had a fight with his old man, one that led him to make a rash decision to run away from home. He boards a ship, deciding to take a vacation, but the ship is suddenly hit by a huge storm - one that sends Ikuto overboard! When he regains consciousness, he realizes he is still alive… on some island. An isolated island. An isolated island with nothing but girls. Beautiful girls. Stranded on an island with only girls, no electricity, gas, radio, television… like he was back in the stone age. Last edited by monir; 2007-01-30 at 11:58. Reason: updated website url |

One thing about Suzu in the manga is that her hair is canonically brown, but it's shown white (typically represents blonde) within the actual black and white story pages, so it always disorients me a little when I've constantly been seeing Suzu as blonde-ish, and then remember that she's actually a brunette.
But that said, the manga is daaaamn good. The plot and premise is an over-the-top take on a well-known cliche and it's all been comedy and fanservice (sooo much lovely fanservice ) for now, but the characters are what really makes the manga worthwhile, and they are all so lovable!

Well they are running out of series to animate, but this?....
(I've the manga series) Does this series even have a plot? I have 8 volumes of it, and the story is still going nowhere... At least the characters are moe...Which is why I am still buying the manga...

Well, that is enough for me. Official site opened today as NeoSam said, and there is some scetches of the characters. Looks cute and fanservicy, and I don't expect nothing more.
First series on my winter season anime list. |

Is from the same guys that are animating OtoBoku, so the fanservice is going to be left intact (and hopefully enhanced ). If people expect some plot in this one, they'll miss all the fun. ... And Machi is mine! |

Looking at what sparse material there is on the official site and I like what I see so far.
The character designs were pretty simple to begin with so the faces all look good. And I said the character designs were simple, and they're suited toward a cute comedy-oriented theme, but daaaaammmn, the girls of Nagasarete Airantou are somehow some of the sexiest I've seen in any manga. I seriously applaud the mangaka's skill, and it looks like the anime team's keeping true to this. (Suzu. ) And from the front page, looks like the characters are all "in-character" so far. (We all love you Ayane! )

I'm also having the 'hair problem' with Suzu, I can only think of her as a blond after the manga... |

Suzu: Horie Yui (Drama CD: Horie Yui) Machi: Takahashi Mikako (Asano Masumi) Ayane: Chiba Saeko (Tamura Yukari) Rin: Shiraishi Ryouko (Asakawa Yuu) Chikage: Itou Shizuka (Nonaka Ai) Yukino: Hasegawa Shizuka (Kugimiya Rie) Ikuto: Shimono Hiro (Hoshi Souichirou) Considering this is a Starchild production, I was surprised to see the cast changed from the Starchild incumbent line up of the drama CD, an improvement if I may say so. Slated for 26 episodes, can't wait until spring.

Nagasarete Airantou has the most practical use for a nosebleed that I've seen so far, however. Spoiler for manga:

I don't see any indication this is actually going to go this January, either on the official site or on MoonPhase or Shoboi Calendar. Anybody know for sure?
I saw a combined event video for He is My Master and for the drama CD for this, a year ago or so, with a very shy-seeming Nonaka Ai and Kugimiya Rie, especially in contrast to the confident Asano Msumi, Shimizu Ai and Ueda Kana for the other show. The cast lineups for both the drama CD and the anime look great to me.
