Touhou Anime Project Dōjin DVD at Comiket This Month (Updated)

The dōjin (self-published works) circle Maikaze will be selling the first DVD episode of its Touhou Anime Project at the Comic Market (Comiket) 75 convention at the end of this month in Tokyo. The "Musō Kakyō" anime episode adapts the characters from the popular Touhou Project shooter game series. One developer, ZUN, has been creating these games all by himself, and they have already spawned official manga. The limited initial edition of the anime DVD will include a soundtrack CD, a full-color art collection, postcard(s), and other items in a deluxe box. Pre-ordered copies will include a script with reproductions of the voice cast's signatures. The official website for the project will launch on December 15.

The cast is as follows:
Mai Nakahara: Reimu Hakurei
Miyuki Sawashiro: Marisa Kirisame
Ayumi Fujimura: Aya Shameimaru
Mikako Takahashi: Patchouli Knowledge
Rie Tanaka: Sakuya Izayoi
Ayumi Tsuji: Remilia Scarlet
Aki Toyosaki: Suika Ibuki
Kikuko Inoue: Narration
