They should use that cover art as their town mascot.

The lead guy's Japanese voice is the live-action Armin Arlert and Joichiro Nishi (Gantz character), so he has experience playing survival horror series. Another interesting fact is the Japanese Himiko VA is the same year but 2 days younger than the dubbed Himiko voice.

I know Junya Inoue does art for events in his hometown but ambassador of tourism now eh? That's wicked. Nice to see the legendary Cave artist moving up even more.

Now please animate Otogi Matsuri lol.

Congrats. Unfortunately, season 2 will take forever.

At least it got an anime, compared to many manga that probably will never get an anime (Paste, in particular).

The anime wasn't far behind the manga when it finished and I think the author said it'd be a few more volumes until the end. Plus it didn't sell well, so I don't think there'll be a season 2 unfortunately.

Haha, Kouchi's pretty cool. They also named seiyuu Ono Daisuke as a tourism ambassador back in 2010.
