ADV ANNOUNCES JANUARY 30 RELEASES
HOUSTON, November 30, 2006—ADV Films, the number one producer-distributor of anime outside of Japan, is pleased to announce the first volume of Moeyo Ken TV, scheduled to arrive on January 30!
MOEYO KEN TV: SHINSENGUMI ON THE PROWL
Three Girls Protect Japan from Supernatural Threats and Talking Cats
ADV is proud to bring you a supernatural series with three sexy Shinsengumi! The first volume of Moeyo Ken TV hits the streets on January 30.
Produced by Marvelous Entertainment (Air Gear, School Rumble) with original character sketches by Rumiko Takahashi (the original creator of the Inu Yasha series), Moeyo Ken TV is the story of three daughters of the Shinsengumi who decide to follow in their fathers footsteps to protect Japan. Unfortunately for the girls, most of the threats they face are of the paranormal variety (not to mention hilarious!)
Synopsis: Yuuko Kondou, Toshie Hijikata, and Kaoru Okita are the daughters of the legendary and honorable Mobile Shinsengumi team. They have been passed the torch to carry on in the noble tradition of their samurai fathers. Their task is to defend Kyoto from a hoard of outlawed and unlicensed beasts! But along with crazy monster cat Nekomaru, wacky inventor Gennai, and silly-boy Ryuunosuke, these danger-prone damsels stir up more trouble than they can shake their swords at when madcap match-matching and money-woes trump any danger the monsters can conjure! Prepare for a zany ride as the Mobile Shinsengumi usher in a new era of magical mayhem! With heroes like these, who needs enemies?
Moeyo Ken TV: Shinsengumi on the Prowl (SRP $29.98 DVD) is an anamorphic DVD-only release including the first five episodes, presented in both English 2.0 and Japanese 2.0 with English subtitles. Extras include episode one commentary Edwin Neal (Nekomaru) and Charles Campbell (ADR Director), story boards, plus clean opening animation, clean closing animation and previews of upcoming ADV Films releases.
