AnimeSuki forum member domino declares that at “a related event” yesterday, an anime adaptation of the PS2 dating sim/adventure game Harukanaru Toki no Naka de 3 is in the works. Since they didn’t offer a source link or even say what the event was, and I have yet to see any other posts about it, I can’t confirm, but it’s perfectly likely.

In HaruToki 3 a girl from modern-day Japan gets tossed into an AU Heian-era Kyoto (8th century to 12th century) and she turns out to be Hakuryu no Miko, the Priestess of the White Dragon. And she meets a half dozen or so attractive eligible bachelors, natch.

Happy though I am at the idea of another reverse harem anime– I think the last ones that saw TV were Ouran High School Host Club and Saiunkoku Monogatari, the former ending in Sept. ‘06 and the latter ending in February ‘07 and being completely vapid), this one seems decidedly along the lines of the cute but dumb Fushigi Yuugi and Saiunkoku than the remarkably clever Host Club.

Okay, I finished the last damn Harry Potter book, so let’s get back to business.

Japanator, if you hadn’t noticed, is my source of choice. (Bias because of Professor Oak, a.k.a. Dale North, a.k.a. former animeOnline coworker? Probably!)

Aaaand next up on their roster is the Geneon panel. Apparently everyone was so busy wanting to drink that no one announced anything new, but they have some good pics of the Saiunkoku Monogatari box, which is considerably more attractive than the actual series.

Since that’s fairly unexciting, here: lesbian smut!
