TOKKO To Be Animated
Date: 1/25/2006
Scheduled for broadcast on WOWOW beginning in April, 2006, Fujisawa Tohru's manga "TOKKO" has been confirmed as being adapted to an anime TV series. The seinen work has been serialized in Kodansha's Afternoon Magazine. The plotline centers around a police theme which Anime Waves describes in the following way: "Shindou just became a new investigator for Tokki: The Special Mobile Investigation Force. On the day of his graduation, he finally saw the half-naked girl that he had always saw in his dream in real life and finds out that she's part of Tokko: The Special Public Safety Task Force. Shindou ends up joining Tokko to revenge his parents' death who's bodies were ripped into pieces." Reports had first circulated around last summer surrounding the adaptation and WOWOW's involvement although now the timetable has been made official.
