Natsuiro Kiseki 1st Anime PV

The official website of the upcoming anime Natsuiro Kiseki has just streamed the first 5 minutes of the promotional video yesterday. The current information is that the series will start in April, it will be 12 episodes long, and a CD of the OP and ED will be released on 25 April. Seiji Mizushima (first Fullmetal Alchemist anime, Gundam 00, Un-Go) is directing this anime with assistant director Ryuichi Kimura(Hanamaru Kindergarten). Tatsuhiko Urahata (Saki, Ichigo 100%, Monster) is editing the series scripts, and Hidari (Fractale) created the original character designs that Yuichi Tanaka (Toaru Majutsu no Index, Toaru Kagaku no Railgun, Last Exile) adapted for animation.

View the promotional video here. The PV reminds me of Tamayura, except theres no cameras and everyone has impossibly colored hair. Nonetheless, the photo-referenced backgrounds are suitably sexy, and all the Sphere girls are using a different kind of voice. Character designs are nice animated too(the Haruka Tomatsu girl looks like Railgun’s Saten, right down to the JC Staff eyes). I thought Sunrise would’ve had problems with coloring, but looks like they did alright. The story about this anime is still unknown for now. We will update you when there is news about it soon.
