Anime "Shijohan Mythology Taikaikei" starts special broadcast! Opening and ending images changed to new versions

A special broadcast of the TV anime "Shijohan Shinwa Taikei " will begin in January 2017.



Based on a novel by Tomihiko Morimi, "Shijohan Shinwa Taikei" is a TV animation series that aired in the Noitamina slot in 2010. The story depicts a "barren and foolish coming-of-age tale" that unfolds in four parallel worlds under the assumption that "if I had chosen another path instead of joining the XX circle in front of the clock tower of doom 、、、、," the main character is "me" who has entered her third year of school without having achieved anything despite dreaming of a rosy campus life. The highlights of the film are the moratorium-like lifestyle of the protagonist who, despite all his claims, cannot leave the "four and a half tatami mats," the cityscape of Kyoto that expresses the peculiarities of the local climate, and the various worlds depicted in live-action, 3D, bold colors and bold forms. The series featured a total of 11 complete episodes, including a tennis circle version, a movie circle version, a cycling circle version, a softball circle version, and so on.
