posted on by Andrew Osmond
Anime on Demand announced the following in a press release.
Anime on Demand is very excited to announce that for the first time ever, Fuji Television's popular Noitamina block will kick off for legal streaming in the UK via our website. We are pleased as a starting point to announce the simulcast of C – Control – The Money and Soul of Possibility starting on April 21st, one week after its Japanese broadcast debut.“C” is an ongoing original series produced by Tatsunoko Production and directed by Kenji Nakamura ("Welcome to Irabu's Office :)", “Mononoke“). Noboru Takagi (“Durarara!!”, “Baccano!”) is scripting it and mebae (“Cencoroll” and “Black Rock Shooter”) will be doing the character designs.
"C" is set in a world where the Japanese government was rescued from the brink of financial collapse by the Sovereign Wealth Fund. For its citizens, however, life has not improved, and unemployment, crime, suicide, and despair are rampant.
kimimaro, raised by his maternal grandmother after the disappearance of his father and the death of his mother, is a scholarship student whose only dream is to avoid all this and live a stable life. One day, however, he meets a man who offers him a large sum of money if he'll agree to pay it back. From then on his fate is radically altered as he's drawn into a mysterious realm known as "The Financial District."
"C" will be available throughout its broadcast a week after its Japanese debut, exclusively on Anime on Demand for the UK at 17:45 every Thursday, starting on the 21st.
More information about other ways to watch will be announced shortly via this site, our twitter feed (animeondemand) and our Facebook (Anime on Demand).
