Nippon Television released the first promotional video for the comedy-style anime Barakamon , the ad features the opening theme song “ Rashisa” by SUPER BEAVER . The premiere takes place on July 5th.
The comedy revolves around Handa Seishuu , a young Calligrapher, who is sent to an island west of Japan after a certain incident. On the first day of his new life in the countryside, Sensei, as he began to be called, meets the simple and innocent Naru, a child from the island.
Yoshino launched the manga in 2009, and Square Enix released the compiled volume in September. The volumes sold more than 1.8 million copies. Yoshino will launch a spinoff manga, titled “Handa-kun,” in the monthly magazine Shonen Gangan. The spinoff manga will take place six years before Barakamon, and will follow Seishu when he was still in school.
The company Kinema Citrus (Yuyushiki, Code:Breaker) will take over the animation.
