Making their eighth announcement during the “12 Announcements of Christmas” event, Australian anime publisher Madman Entertainment have confirmed they now hold the rights to Good Librarian Like a Good Shepherd. Also known as Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai (大図書館の羊飼い) in Japan, this is an all-ages anime adaptation of August’s 2013 erotic visual novel.
Madman have confirmed that it will begin streaming via AnimeLab in 2015, with a home video release to be published at a later date.
Kyotaro Kakei is a shy student at a prestigious academy known for its massive library. The sole member of the school’s library club, Kyotaro’s always been better with books than girls – until a text message from the mysterious “Shepherd” hints that his fate will soon be changing. Life gets wild in a hurry after a vision allows Kyotaro to rescue Tsugumi, a beautiful girl who also received a text message from the “Shepherd.” Soon, Tsugumi announces her intentions to join the Library Club and, with Kyotaro’s help, make school life much more interesting! It doesn’t take long for a host of other pretty girls to follow Tsugumi’s lead and join the club in the hopes of spicing up their boring academy lives. But just who is this “Shepherd,” what does he or she have to do with the Library Club’s sudden popularity, and how in the world will Kyotaro survive being surrounded by all these girls!?
