News Ōkami-san to Shichinin no Nakama-tachi TV Anime Reportedly Green-Lit
posted on 2009-12-22 23:00 EST
A wraparound jacket band for books has reportedly announced that a television anime adaptation of Masashi Okita's Ōkami-san to Shichinin no Nakama-tachi (Ōkami-san and the Seven Friends) romantic comedy light novel series has been green-lit.
The story centers around Ryōko Ōkami, a high school freshman girl known for her fierce looks, unusual canine teeth when she smiles, and wild demeanor. (Her family name is homonymous with the Japanese word for "wolf.") Ringo Akai is a short high school freshman girl with seemingly cute, angelic looks but a dark demeanor. (Her name is a Japanese wordplay on "apple" and "Red Riding Hood.") Together with their odd friends, the two fight to change the world, one issue at a time.
Okita has published nine volumes in the light novel series since 2006.

Ouran High School Host Club GN 17There is but one volume remaining to Ouran High School Host Club, and it has been a fun ride. While this book doesn't quite live up the earlier ones in terms of pure, lighthearted enjoyment, it is still solidly entertaining.
Cage of Eden has all of the elements of a classic survival epic – monsters, diseases, an unfriendly wilderness with no perceived escape, and our own ability as humans to lie. While it can be laid on a bit thick at times, and the fanservice or treatment of the adult female characters may be objectionable to some, Yamada's story is an engrossing one.
Nothing here shakes up the series the way parts of the last volume did, but it's consummate entertainment nonetheless: slick and effortlessly propulsive, yet still respectful of its audience and characters.
