35. MURDER PRINCESS (Anime Predictions)

Raw image by Tatsuhiko Urahata, BEE TRAIN, no infringement intended.

Blurb:
This is a short OVA series (6 episodes in total), releasing one episode a month (more or less), on DVD. The name, again, is Very Very Very catchy, much to my liking. MURDER PRINCESS! The title suggests something relating to feudal times and gore. The series summary is basically that, and some small twists here and there ---

The princess ARITA fled her country, seeking help from an assassin/bounty hunter, FARIS/Pharis (?), only to meet each other on her journey. They fall off a cliff, and their souls somehow were exchanged. ARITA is now the MURDER PRINCESS, the strongest assassin in the country.

The story goes on from there. What could be interesting factors of the show are the colors and action sequences. The official website has a character page that introduces a wide mix of anime cliché characters.. all with full outfits and different colors. This OVA series will, no doubt, be a very colorful and exciting show to watch. And with the cool name, who wouldn't take a look at the first episode?!

1st DVD releases on March 28th, 2007. Wait for subs patiently. (Just a reminder.. BEE TRAIN was the company that did Tsubasa Chronicles and Noir)
