Invaders of the Rokujyōma!? Anime's 2nd Promo Previews Opening Theme
posted on by Karen Ressler
The official website for the anime of Takehaya's Rokujyōma no Shinryakusha!? (Invaders of the Rokujyōma!?) light novel series began streaming the second promotional video, which premiered at Tokyo University's May Day Festival, on Sunday. The video features the opening theme song "Kōkan win-win Mujōken" by Heart Invader, a group made up of four of the lead voice actresses Eri Suzuki, Hikari Omori, Masumi Tazawa, and Maria Naganawa.
The video introduces the cast:
The "apartment comedy" centers around Kōtarō Satōmi, a boy who started to live by himself to attend a high school. He fortunately discovered a very cheap, tiny (six-mat or rokujyōma) room for 5,000 yen (about US$50) a month, and began his new life there. However, when he moved into that room 106 in the Korona complex, some unexpected "roommates" began appearing one by one.
Shin Oonuma (Baka and Test - Summon the Beasts, Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya, ef: a tale of melodies) will direct the anime at animation Studio Silver Link (Dusk maiden of Amnesia, Kokoro Connect), and original creator Takehaya will serve as series director. Poko provided the original character designs, and Hideki Furukawa will adapt the character designs for the anime, and will also act as storyboard director. Shogo Yasukawa will handle series composition, Ryosuke Nakanishi will score the soundtrack, and Zero-A will produce the music. Yūki and Taketatsu's musical unit petit milady is contributing their third single as the anime's ending theme song.
Takehaya launched the light novel series with illustrations by Poco in 2009, and Hobby Japan will publish the 16th volume in July. Tomosane Ariike started a manga adaptation on Hobby Japan's Comic Dangan website last December. The light novels already inspired an original promotional movie with some animated footage by director Shinichi Watanabe and SILVER LINK in 2010.
The anime series will premiere in July.
