Let’s start with the four new titles that were hand picked for our most recent Anime Arvo screening this April. If I can dare to recommend Shadows House and Ranking of Kings in particular, as two of my favourite new series of recent times. They really stood out as being quite unique and interesting. Both have a second part/season and are slated for further seasons. I can’t wait!
“You have 30 days to live. What do you do next? Yata had a future until Hina declares the world will end in 30 days. Though skeptical, he wonders of her divinity upon seeing her abilities at work. Is it true? Is it really the end? More importantly, why did she pick him to spend her final moments with?”
“High atop a cliff sits the mansion known as Shadows House, home to a faceless clan that pretends to live like nobles. They express their emotions through living dolls that also endlessly clean the home of soot. One such servant, Emilico, aids her master Kate as they learn more about themselves and the mysteries of the house.”
“Deaf, non-speaking, and unable to wield a sword, Prince Bojji doesn’t seem like a typical heir to the throne, and his kingdom agrees. As his brother plots to take over, Bojji allies with an outcast creature named Kage — who believes in him like no one has before.”
“Moments from death, Sorawo is saved by the mysterious Toriko in the Otherside. Discovering a beautiful but monster-filled dimension, they set out to explore this nightmare realm together. What they encounter could bring enlightenment, or drive them mad!”
