Kuragehime (TV)
 

NeoSam and Haohmaru announced this anime adaptation a while ago.

Covers:


This show is going to fill the Noitamina slot for the 2010 Fall Season.

Animation Production : Brains Base
Director : Takahiro Omori (大森貴弘)
Series Composition : Jukki Hanada (花田十輝)
Original creator : Akiko Higashimura (東村アキコ)
Character Design : Kenji Hayama (羽山賢二)

The art there looks interesting. And yes, josei. Will watch.

Not really something I'd watch but, it's Brains Base and Takahiro Omori so maybe I will.

We've still got a pretty long way to go before Kuragehime starts, but here's a glimpse of what the anime will look like:

If the anime looks anything like that, it'll look fantastic. The summary sounds good, like I said before. Definitely watching out for this one

I like the art but the plot seems uninteresting.

Sarai-ya Goyou and Yojou-han Shinwa Taikei have made me fall in love with noitaminA anime, so this one is a definite watch for me. Even if it is a josei. Even if it does have mature men in drag. I'm going to watch it.

VAs annouced

Tsukimi Kurashita：Kana Hanazawa :D
Mayaya：Ake Okamura
Chieko：Kimiko Saitou
Banba：Motoko Kumai
JiJi：Mamiko Noto :D

This should be fun.

Shit, Mamiko Noto in my NoitaminA. Might skip this even if it is NoitanimA.

Sounds kinda interesting, and I was disappointed with myself for Tatami Galaxy(because I watched all the eps at once, which lessened the experience), so I'd like to give the noitamina slot another chance.

The heck!?!? Why the hate at Maminoto?

Yeah, Mamiko Noto is a very lame choice. Not really happy about it.

Tsukimi's voice will also Fumika's voice from Seikon no Qwaser. Chieko voiced always in Seikon no Qwaser Nikuma's voice. Kumai was also voiced Koganei from Flame of Recca and Ginta from MÄR (both are created by Nobuyuki Anzai). Mamiko Noto also voiced Nodoka from Negima!, Nogizaka Haruka and Oshizu from To Love-ru.

The official site is up-

No trailer yet but I like the character design. It also has the same director as Natsume Yuujinchou, Alice Academy and Baccano!! So it is in good hands as well.

I don't know if this is from the anime or a fan thing-

Haha, I see they've announced the rest of the cast... and who did they get to play the man in drag? Saigar, DUH. :heh:

The video definitely seems to be official, since the voices are the anime cast. I guess the studio's already giving us trailers of some sorts - nice find!

I can not open the Kuragehime in Noitamina's website because the URL does not work for me

Works perfectly fine for me. :confused:

The images on the main site looks crisper, which makes me wonder if the video might be an early cut that got leaked and not the final product.

They're most likely videos made for "fun" to introduce the characters and get us looking forward to the series, thus they aren't going to spend too much money on them and made them simple-looking. The actual series will look different for sure. I really like the effort of animating scenes just as promo material, in any case.

New vids apparently keep being posted every week:





I'm sure we're in for a fun ride.

Going by those two short trailers, yes i have to agree. :D

The artstyle is a bit different from what I expected. This certainly looks like fun. The second vid is awesome :heh:
