Expected Release Date: Fall 2010
Genre: Romance
This is going to be a one episode OVA and the focus is romance. Okay, I'm not an avid follower of Sunrise, so I was obviously interested when I saw this title from Sunrise. It also seems from reading the synopsis that there is a good chance no mecha will spring forth from its hiding. I was very interested by then. The following synopsis is posted by ANN:
The story is set in 2710 in the city of Nara, where the national capital has been relocated. For historical preservation and tourism, the country's cultural treasures — including entire buildings — have been moved en masse and assembled inside a humongous building. A second-year high school student named Shinichi (Kensho Ono) is visiting Nara on a field trip. No matter where he looks, there are deer everywhere. Shinichi is getting bored when suddenly, a deer (Kappei Yamaguchi) takes off with his bag, leading to a mad chase through the streets of Nara. In the middle of the chaos, Shinichi helps a mysterious, beautiful girl named Toto (Minako Kotobuki) who is being chased by unknown followers. Because of these odd circumstances, the two ended up in on a sight-seeing date throughout the locales of Nara.See what I mean? :heh: Too bad it's slated to be just a one episode OVA. I also hope the Sunrise-fans won't take any offense at my obvious ignorance as far as Sunrise and non-mecha romance series are concerned. I don't think I've watched any non-mecha romance show by Sunrise yet.
