North American anime distributor Sentai Filmworks announced on Wednesday that it has licensed anime of Nippon Ichi Software and Broccoli's female-oriented dating simulation game Kamigami no Asobi, and plans to release the series on home video.
Crunchyroll is currently streaming the series as it airs in Japan.
Tomoyuki Kawamura (Good Luck Girl! chief director) is directing the series at animation studio Brains Base (Blood Lad, Penguindrum, Natsume's Book of Friends). Tomoko Konparu (Sunday Without God, UtaPri, Kimi ni Todoke - From Me to You) is writing the scripts and Minako Shiba (RDG Red Data Girl, Tegami Bachi: Letter Bee) is designing the characters. Elements Garden is providing the music.
The original "Weaving of fates - Love is pain" adventure game for the PSP system was released in Japan last year. The story revolves around heroine Yui Kusanagi, who is ordered by Zeus (Houchu Ohtsuka), a god and the headmaster of a school he created, to teach the meaning of love to young and handsome gods. The reason he has for doing this is to cancel the negative effects of the weakening bond between the world of the divine and the world of the humans.
