Sentai Filmworks Acquire Rights to Outbreak Company

-

Sentai Filmworks continue increasing their anime license haul, with their latest acquisition announcement being for Outbreak Company (アウトブレイク・カンパニー). Outbreak Company is a 12-episode anime series currently airing in Japan which features direction by Kei Oikawa, character designs by Takashi Mamezuka, composition by Naruhisa Arakawa, sound direction by Takahiro Enomoto and last but not least, music by Keiji Inai.

The series is now available through select digital outlets as a simulcast title, with a home video release planned for 2014.

Shinichi Kanou’s father writes novels and his mother illustrates erotic video games, so perhaps it’s not unexpected that he’d end up as a fan of comics and science fiction.  However, rather than channeling his efforts into creating like his parents, he has instead become one of the world’s foremost experts on “moe”, with a staggeringly encyclopedic knowledge of all things cute and adorable in every conceivable form of animation and media.  This sort of explains Shinichi’s recruitment as an ambassador for moe to the Holy Eldant Kingdom, a parallel world where things that previously only existed in anime actually exist! 

So how will a hot blooded young otaku react when dropped into a world with actual cute and adorable elf maids and dragons?  More importantly, how will THEY react to this drooling devotee with diplomatic credentials?  And even more to the point, exactly WHY does the Japanese government feel that sending someone to represent Japan’s moe interests is a good idea in the first place?  Sorry, no spoilers!  If you want to learn more, you’ll have to come along for the adventure as the ultimate anime fans’ fanboy fantasy unfurls in OUTBREAK COMPANY!
