9-nine- Ruler's Crown (TV) Source: Visual Novel (developed and published by Palette) Demographic: Seinen Animation Studio: PRA Genres: drama, mystery, supernatural, thriller Themes: serial killer, small town, superpowers Plot Summary: Shiromitsugawa is a run-of-the-mill college town that has launched several failed attempts to drum up tourism and revitalize itself, including sponsoring a high-budget-but-poorly-written anime based on local folklore. A storm is about to descend on this sleepy town. Kakeru Niimi is a man who can be a bit curt at times but who has a strong sense of responsibility and a kind heart. Kakeru's ordinary life is thrown into chaos after the local shrine's sacred relic shatters. In the wake of this event, several young men and women awaken to superhuman abilities. What was once a run-of-the-mill life in a run-of-the-mill town soon turns into a quest to track down a superpowered serial killer before they can strike again. Air Date & Platform: July 05, 2025 (Saturday) Available on: Pending Episode Count / Runtime: Pending [EDIT: Fancy opener stuff edited. -TK] |

So I've done something I've never done before: I watched the first two episodes of this with Japanese audio... and no subs. Why would I do such a crazy thing? Well, I had no choice, actually. This show has not got a NA release but it can be *cough* found. Where I found it included the first two episodes but without subs. The third episode and the ones subsequent, did. I was interested enough that I sat through the unsubbed episodes just to get a sense of the story and characters. I did a little bit of internet research so I had a rough idea of the premise.
Look, it's not great, but I've watched the first 7 episodes and plan to finish the show. And it was sort of an interesting exercise watching a couple of episodes without understanding (much) of the dialogue. Definitely wouldn't want to make it a habit, though. |

If I were HIDIVE or Netflix or Hulu or Amazon Prime, I'd be snapping anime like this up to compete with CR's volume of anime releases. I imagine the purchasing price to streaming rights are probably a bit lower, and there are people like me who'd love to see some of the shows from the Island of Lost Anime on a legal streaming platform.
