The special edition of the eighth volume of the manga, which shipped on Monday, is bundling an original anime DVD. The ninth volume will also bundle a second anime DVD when it ships in July.
The story imagines if Buddha (voiced by actor Gen Hoshino) and Jesus (SAKEROCK band leader Mirai Moriyama) shared a low-rent apartment in Tokyo. Noriko Takao (episode director on Clannad, K-ON!, Lucky Star) is directing at A-1 Pictures off a screenplay by Rika Nezu (live-action Kimi ni Todoke, live-action Absolute Boyfriend). The film will open in Japan on May 10, 2013.
