Sentai Filmworks has announced the licensing of KURENAI, the 12 episode series
that pits a seven-year-old heiress and her teenage bodyguard against her
own family. Based on the light novels by Kentaro Katayama with
illustrations by Yamoto Yamamoto, the series features direction and
script supervision by Kou Matsuo (Rozen Maiden, Yozakura Quartet) and
character designs by Kumi Ishii (Rozen Maiden, Oreimo).
KURENAI will be available digitally soon, with a home video release on subtitled DVD scheduled for later this year.
Synopsis: He’s
only a teenager, but Kurenai Shinkurou is already both a master of an
arcane martial art and an experienced professional mediator with a long
track record of resolving disputes. Not bad for someone who’s just
sixteen and still in school, but everyone has their limits and Kurenai
may have met his when his boss and role model, Benika, responds to his
request for a more challenging assignment by giving him the task of
protecting young Murasaki Kuhoin. Never mind that she’s only seven, the
fact that the people Kurenai’s supposed to protect her from are her own
very rich and extremely powerful family is guaranteed to take this job
into the danger zone. Now the heat is on and Kurenai’s scrambling to
put out as many fires as he can, even as the secrets surrounding his
young charge bring everything else to a flashpoint in KURENAI.
