posted on by Karen Ressler
Mystery series began streaming on Crunchyroll Thursday

North American anime distributor Sentai Filmworks announced on Thursday that it has licensed the anime The Perfect Insider (Subete ga F ni Naru) and plans to release the series on home video.

Crunchyroll is streaming the series in some territories as it airs in Japan. The first episode debuted on Thursday.

Mamoru Kanbe (Elfen Lied, I''s Pure) is directing the anime at A-1 Pictures (The IDOLM@STER, Persona 4 the Golden Animation). Toshiya Ono (Gatchaman Crowds, tsuritama) is in charge of series composition. Kenji Kawai (Patlabor, Fate/stay night) is composing the music and Inio Asano (Solanin, Nijigahara Holograph) is drawing the original character designs.

The story of the original Subete ga F ni Naru novel revolves around Sōhei Saikawa, a member of the Saikawa Research Lab. He goes on a vacation held by the lab, and Moe Nishinosono, the daughter of his mentor, joins the group on their vacation despite not being a part of the lab. There, the two end up finding a corpse. The two work together to solve the mysteries of what becomes a serial murder case.

The 1996 novel is the first installment in Hiroshi Mori's S&M series of novels. A live-action television drama adaptation of the novel aired from October to December last year on the Fuji TV channel.
