Creator Sakuraba expands 200th manga chapter for original story; 4th season staff animates
Kodansha confirmed on Tuesday that the 11th volume of Coharu Sakuraba's Minami-ke manga is bundling an original animation DVD. The DVD anime will have an original story based on the 200th manga chapter, with Sakuraba adding material to the script.
The DVD will have most of the same staff and cast as the upcoming fourth television season. Keiichiro Kawaguchi (Mayo Chiki!, Moetan Sket Dance) is directing the anime DVD at the anime studio feel, and Momoko Murakami (Minami-ke Tadaima, Kimi no Iru Machi) wrote the script. Gō Suzuki (chief animation director on Kanamemo, Kiss×sis) designed the characters, and Starchild Records is producing the music.
The bundle will retail for 3,700 yen (about US$37) on August 6.
