posted on by Egan Loo
The first promotional video for The "Hentai" Prince and the Stony Cat. (Hentai Ōji to Warawanai Neko.) television anime debuted during a streamed event from Anime Festival Asia 2012 on Sunday. The video revealed that the anime will premiere next spring.
The event also announced the staff of the anime. Youhei Suzuki (episode director on Karin, Kimikiss pure rouge, Nodame Cantabile: Finale) is making his debut as the director of a full series at J.C. Staff. Haruko Iizuka (Little Busters!, Inu X Boku Secret Service, Tamayura) is adapting Kantoku's original character illustrations from Sou Sagara's light novel series for the anime. Michiko Itou (Ōkami-san & Her Seven Companions, Ro-Kyu-Bu!, Twin Angel: Twinkle Paradise) is in charge of the series scripts.
The staff plans to announce the cast next month at Comic Market 83.
The light novels center around a second-year high school boy named Yōto Yokodera. Yōto is always thinking about his "carnal desires," but no one acknowledges him as a pervert. He learns about a cat statue that supposedly grants wishes. The boy goes to pray that he will be able to express his lustful thoughts whenever and wherever he wants. At the statue, Yōto encounters Tsukiko Tsutsukakushi, a girl from his high school with her own wish — that she would not display her "real intentions" so readily.
Digital Manga is publishing the first volume of Okomeken's manga adaptation in North America this month.
