posted on by Andre Pappas
The crowdfunding and streaming service Anime Sols announced last week that it is taking pledges for the third and final DVD set of the classic shoujo television anime Dear Brother (Oniisama E...).
AnimeSols set a goal of US$13,000 to release episodes 27-39 on home video. The set has until May 2 to reach its goal.
Based on Riyoko Ikeda's (The Rose of Versailles) original manga, the Dear Brother anime follows Nanako Misono after she enters an all-girls private school. Nanako writes letters about her day-to-day life to her "oniisama," a previous teacher from her cram school. A middle-class girl, Nanako encounters hardships and drama at the prestigious school of female elites.
The series ran for 39 episodes and is also available for streaming on Hulu, Viki, and the Anime Sols website. It has not previously been released on home video in North America.
The first and second box sets for the series both reached their funding goals of US$13,000 per box set in November.
