MVM has confirmed that it has acquired the 12-part series Super Sonico The Animation. It will be released in the summer, format TBA.
In the series, Super Sonico is an 18-year-old girl who keeps busy as a college student, a part-time photoshoot model, and a musician. She even works at her grandmother's bar.
"Super Sonico," the mascot girl of the "Nitro Super Sonic" events held by Nitroplus, is credited with playing herself in the Japanese version and performing the opening theme song "Beat goes on!" The English dub of the series features professional cosplayer Jessica Nigri as Sonico.
The Super Sonico character already inspired her own line of games, as well as figures including a giant 1/2-scale statue.
