Back Street Girls is getting a TV anime.

Plot:

Quote:

A group of 3 yakuza failed their boss for the last time. After messing up an important job, the boss gave them 2 choices: Honorably committing suicide, or go to Thailand to get a sex reassignment surgery in order to become "female" idols. After a gruesome year long training to become idols, they successfully debut, with overwhelming popularity, much to their dismay. This is where their tragedy truly begins.

New key visual

bastek66 · 2018-07-03, 13:33

I expected shorts with zero animation but it's actually 24 minutes long slideshow.

If you go to Thailand your dreams will become true.

Spoiler for ep1:

ScrewySquirrel · 2018-07-04, 08:41

This is Clutch Cargo levels of not-animation.

pervypig · 2018-07-04, 10:42

OMFG!!! TRANNIEZ IN ANIME!!! How many years had it been since the last Non-hentai anime featured one of those?!? I think I can't count the number of tranny animes in mainstream with 1 hand.

Oh, but even with current tech, it takes definitely >>> 1yr to get from a manly yakuza man to an idol, but since they are cute, i'd late it slide.

Liddo-kun · 2018-07-04, 18:50

This reminds me of Pretty Face manga.

Stark700 · 2018-07-05, 09:10

Is it just me or does the art style look a little similar to Prison School?

Assman got enough of Kangaku Gakuen shit and decided to climb up in the business world.

Nope just Yazuka Boss is equal principal assman, like Kirihara of code geass looks the same as Zouken Matou...a design trait but coincidence

Yeah i saw what you call limited animation...could be worse, was a literal manga in movement..and not good way but the humor is intact, so the series will be a trainwreck in the good way

James Rye · 2018-07-08, 08:51

I bet the Yakuza Boss is like the brother or cousin of Assman principal of Prison School. Man, those guys really went to hell. Thailand is the land of the trap and in this case good enough to turn three Yakuzas into cute Idols. Loved how their nemesis who was responsible for this Idol disaster got thrown into prison and made them even more popular. xD

Yu Ominae · 2018-07-11, 03:02

I can't have but have the line "Back Streets Girls all right!" instead of "Back Street Backs all right!" in my head.

The Principal and the Yakuza boss are even both voiced by Keiji Fujiwara. The staff was most likely aware of the resemblance.

Kuroageha · 2018-07-11, 17:42

An empty victory in various ways.

Nivek von Beldo · 2018-07-12, 14:35

Poor Mari-Chan, slowly becoming an idol in the inside too.

Chiaki-chan her old aniki is her fan and that underwear

This anime is a perfect manga adaptation, more animation would work but seeing the jokes in motion is so good too

Kanon · 2018-07-12, 17:41

The voices are what makes this anime adaptation worth it.

serenade_beta そのおっぱいで13才 Join Date: Dec 2006	Spoiler for ep1: Outside of the obviously low budget and un-animation anime-ness of the entire thing, the first episode was funny enough. Yeah, if you could somehow so perfectly turn into a female, that wouldn't be so bad. Now the only problem is if they have the material and ability to remain entertaining or if the gimmick will wear off quickly... __________________ -Blog --> http://tdnshumi.blogspot.com/ (Mainly about video games) -R.I.P.
