Etotama Anime's Trailer Introduces Full Main Cast
posted on by Karen Ressler
The official website for animation studio Shirogumi Inc. (Moyashimon, Antique Bakery, Friends: Mononoke Shima no Naki) and Tablier Communications' original television anime Etotama began streaming a "2D Part edition" promotional video last week. The video introduces the main characters in their "adult modes," as opposed to the super-deformed CGI "pretty modes," which were introduced in an earlier trailer.
Pony Canyon USA will host the anime's English-subtitled premiere at Sakura-Con in Seattle, Washington on April 3. Producers Tetsuya Kinoshita and Ryōsuke Tsuboi will be in attendance.
The cast so far includes:
Murakawa is performing the opening theme "Retry☆Rendez-vous." Soruraru BOB, a vocal unit consisting of the main voice actresses, is performing the ending theme.
Kadokawa's Dengeki Daioh magazine launched a manga version of the series in the January 2014 issue. Shirogumi and Tablier Communications are credited with the original work, Takashi Hoshi (Schäferhund) and Tōru Zekū (Trinity x Venus) are credited with the manga's original story, and Hiroma Hino is drawing the manga.
The manga's story revolves around Nya-tan, the cat of Chinese astrology who wants to become a member of the Chinese zodiac. Nya-tan is simple and suffers from memory loss, and she tries various foolish ways to become a member. She meets Takeru Tendo, a high school student who lives alone in Akihabara, and becomes a freeloader at his house. Little by little, she gets closer to her goal
