News Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun Shōjo Anime's New Promo Streamed
posted on 2012-09-03 07:25 EDT by Egan Loo
Robico's romantic comedy starring Haruka Tomatsu, Tatsuhisa Suzuki to debut in October
The official website for the Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun (The Monster Seated Next to You) shōjo anime began streaming the latest tongue-in-cheek promotional video on Monday.
The anime adapts Robico's romantic comedy manga about Shizuku Mizutani, a girl (played by Haruka Tomatsu) who has absolutely no interests except for school and her plans for the future. A boy named Haru Yoshida (Tatsuhisa Suzuki) would be seated next to her in class, but he has been constantly absent for one reason or another since the first day of school. By chance, she is sent to deliver class printouts to him, and that leads Yoshida to believe they are friends.
The anime will premiere on October 1 with theme songs by Tomatsu and the female group 9nine. Robico launched the manga in 2008, and Kodansha published the 10th compiled book volume last month.

My-Otome Complete Series BD/DVD
anime
This sequel to My-HiME isn't as beloved as its predecessor, but it still has plenty of its own charm to offer. Theron Martin has the details.
― My-Otome is the 2005 follow-up to 2004's My-HiME. For most of its run, it appears to be an alternate-world version of My-HiME, where the original cast is transplanted into a new setting but with different lesser roles, but details later in the series' run sug...

Queen's Quality GN 1
manga
Supernatural shenanigans abound in this renamed continuation of Kyosuke Motomi's QQ Sweeper. Rebecca Silverman sums it up.
