The manga was nice, just hoping this doesn't end up being similar to some of the other God+love anime >.>

reminds me of Bimbougami, which was an utter failure, but at least this sounds very interesting, nice cast also and good art.

Yay, another high school title! Talk about originality!

You know what would be rad? Since Jojo and Sailor Moon are getting reboots, why not have a TV series of... say, Sanctuary or Banana Fish, you know, spice things up?

Gender bender. Guess I won't be watching this since I ain't a fan. It seems like people are going into the God/Kami crap.

Oh... Oh ! An anime adaptation !
So much wins.
@Klonoa79H :Does Inari take entirely places in High School ? NO. Of course no. It's more original that you think it is.

Are you saying this from knowledge of the manga, or just assuming? All I have to go on is the synopsis, as I have not read the maga, but I don't see anything about gender bending in it. It says "she blurts out that she wants to be Sumizome" and Sumizome Akemi is another girl.

Edit: Unless you're spoiling something from later in the manga... if so please don't.


Look at the genres.

Awesome news! Haven't finished the available chapters of the manga, so far it's a nice story. But it's kinda ironic when she transforms into Sumizome for her crush's sake. =__=;

The main character have the power to transform into an other person, and use that power to try to help them. But these transformations are short. No need to be afraid about the gender bender tag.

A fan of what?

As for God/Kami "crap", don't forget in Japan Shintoism there are hundreds if not thousands of deities, and it is easy to expect there will be some manga that will use the Shinto theme.

Wonder how you deduce that the cast looks all female except for that guy? Just by the synopsis?

Anyway, be careful when you use information from MAL which is sometimes not detailed enough, perhaps because of the limitation of the format (for example, there is no way to explain in more details how important each category under the "genres" section plays in the manga/anime), which may lead to misconception. As far as I know, the heroine indeed changes into a male sometimes but she changes into a female more often than not. So it is NOT as if "gender bending" is the key theme for this manga.

Anyway, the manga is drawn by a female so it has a bit of shoujo touch in the art and style but the manga is serialized in a shounen magazine (Young Ace) so I guess it can be called a manga that is more gender-neutral than the standard shounen.

One thing I particularly like about this manga is how much attention it pays to portray the surroundings and neighborhood of the Fushimi town which is in the suburb of Kyoto. You can check how the manga compares with the real sceneries in this blog by a fan: http://d.hatena.ne.jp/BMCSSX/20110719/1311094606
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Just the other day. I was thinking about how it would be like if Inari turned into an anime. FU- ASKLDFAS WHY DOES THE ANIME INDUSTRY MAKE ME SO HAPPY. aSDKLASdf The same thing happened with Kuro to Kin, Sukitte Ii na Yo and Kamisama Hajimemashita, and Amnesia. aKFASDKF

There are two 'main' guys. And it's not a harem so don't worry about that. It's far from that, you'll see. There's not even annoying love triangles (as far as I've read at least) This is more pure love.

This could be really good. Given the situation and the involved characters, something fairly interesting might be the result. I'll be watching it.
