As a part of Rejet's New Work Announcement 2015 event Snow Virgin Road held today, an original anime project titled Dance with Devils was announced for 2015. The anime is a collaboration with the musical composer group Elements Garden and the keyword is "song." A game for the project is also planned, to be released in 2015 or later. The anime's staff and cast have been announced, along with a PV for the project.

"Das ich erkenne, was die Welt im Innersten zusammenhalt, schau' alle Wirkenskraft und Samen und thu' nicht mehr in Worten kramen."
("That I realize what keeps the world together at heart, look at all effectualness and seeds and don't rummage in words anymore.")

At a street that looks nostalgic, in Shikou Village.
Ritsuka Tachibana, a second year high schooler who attends Shikou Gakuen.
She spends a peaceful school life with her mother Maria, but the balance will collapse one day—.
Is that a person or a devil?

Devils and fallen angels in a library, perfect in my book ♥
I can recognize Maeda-sensei's art hundreds miles away.
This Rejet announcement got me even more excited.
Looks like the story revolves around magic?

O~h, here it is!
Even if I cannot stand the art, maybe I can expect something from the music...
Although I do like that they seem to use different seiyuu from usually.

It looked interesting until I saw the PV... now it looks like a reverse harem full of sadists ( I'm thinking of "Diabolik Lovers" ) this gets the "nope, just nope " seal from me .

Man. Dark harem crap like this is exactly why anime is so bad.. It's a shame, since some of those names are pretty good.

The one I like most is her brother...please at least still be a route since most often the people end up not being blood related by plot.

Tsuki is second favorite there.

Everything looks great, the staff looks great, the seiyuu look great. Now the only thing is, please don't be full of Do-S guys like Dialovers?

I mean, for fans of Dialovers, great, but is it wrong to hope...?

It was announced at the same time as Dialovers sequel so I'm going in presuming its full of sadistic men and a doormat self insert heroine.

Yeah, but Rejet makes stuff other than Dialovers. Like Ken ga Kimi, Lip on my Prince...

And the synopsis says she'll be 'loved' so...hopefully? D:

So many errors a short Faust quote. 20 seconds on Google would have been enough to fix it. Let's hope they will refrain from using any more German in the show.

The last time I watched a Reverse harem was Diabolik lovers... And that turned out to be trash tier. Will give it a try, though.

Thats good. I hope it is at least as dark as diabolic lovers.

At least it it should be more entertaining than watching generic reverse harem like Kamigami no Asobi and Brothers Conflict

Your usual reverse harem cast:

Guy with long hair showcasing skin: Rebel one who thinks he has so much sex appeal he's going to make sexual jokes to dat girl but the other guys think he's just a pushover so they bully him.

Red hair-kun: The sadistic very jealous possessive type.

Purple hair-san: The smart guy who spends his time on his computer. He has done the best studies ever but for some reason he's not working. He loves dat girl but will always prioritize her happiness before his.

Look, I'm normal-kun: The first one who sees dat girl and has an instant crush on her "She's mine!" No particular feature, but dat girl will fall in love with him first because he has an habit to grab her by the chin.

Orange hair-san: That rich one who always has girls on his ass. Wakes up at 4 in the morning to do his hair and make-up.

Dat-girl chan: Walks around with her dog Pipi-chan. Gets startled easily and blushes whenever she sees a guy, even when he's at the other side of the room. Always has deep and existential thoughts when she's in her bed, clutching Pipi-chan against her chest "Why does he like me?!... I don't know what do...." Dat girl-chan always wants the best for everyone, she doesn't care if she dies, as long as that guy she doesn't even know survives.

LOOK, NO 8 YEARS LOOKING BLONDIE WHO ALWAYS WALKS AROUND WITH A TEDDY BEAR AND CANDIES, ISNT THAT WONDERFUL?

I see what you did there.

No, but seriously, are megane-kuns a declining trope amongst the Japanese fangirls or something? Oh come on, Japan! So girls these days like to be closed in cages and sucked by vampires but they can't appreciate bookworm types in classy glasses? WHAT HAS THE WORLD CAME TO

Watching for music, Faust quote and TOP POMERANIAN. I'm pretty sure he has a dog tag (I mean the military one), he's one badass pomeranian in my book. And also the red hair-kun made me wonder if that jerk Ayato from Diabolik Lovers didn't get a spin-off in another dimension, those guys are practically the same.

Same. And the art sometimes. The staff does look pretty good too. The last reverse harem that I actually enjoyed was Kamigami no Asobi. Not all hope is lost yet for me and reverse harems.

No surprise that this reminded me of the play by the same name about a woman who was raped.

Well at least it isn't an otome adaptation so I'll give it a look if the heroine has a noteworthy personality.

Seeing how the last chara update is on Mar 18, I want this for Spring.

From DengekiGirl'sStyle new issue, what I could quickly gather:
Older brother is cool, student president is a cruel devil.
One devil is an incubus, dangerously popular with girls.
We do have a sadist devil and the fallen angel is a yandere.

Shadow-Chan said:
Looks like the story revolves around magic?

PV has magic circles, wonder whether those are for summoning devils!
Brother is an exorcist, what type of devils he has to exorcise?
All this makes me think the school could be haunted.
