Oda Nobuna no Yabō Slated for Summer
posted on by Ko Ransom
The official Twitter account for the Oda Nobuna no Yabō television series tweeted an image from the April issue of Kadokawa Shoten's Comp Ace magazine on Wednesday that announces a summer broadcast for the anime. A manga adaptation of the same series has been running in the magazine since July 2011.
Originally a light novel by Miyage Kasuga, the historical romantic comedy follows a modern-day high school boy named Yoshiharu Sagara who is transported to Japan's Sengoku Jidai (Era of the Warring States) — except the well-known warriors of the era are female. Oda Nobuna, a cute girl who happens to be a warlord, nicknames Yoshiharu "Monkey" and takes him under her wing.
The anime will be directed by Yuuji Kumazawa, and Masashi Suzuki (Shuffle!, Minami-ke: Okawari) will be responsible for series composition. Yuka Takashina will be the anime's character designer, and Madhouse Studios and Studio Gokumi will animate the series.
