MVM Listings For OreImo Discovered!

At MCM London Comic Con this past weekend, MVM Entertainment announced a number of new anime license acquisitions, such as Hanamonogatari and Monster Musume: Everyday Life With Monster Girls. According to listings discovered in their Anime-On-Line website however, it appears that they have more up their sleeves for the new year!

The most notable discovery are listings for both seasons of Aniplex’s controversial romantic comedy series OreImo (My Little Sister Can’t Be This Cute!). The first season is currently slated to be released on 25th January 2016, with the second following a week later on 1st February. The lack of product pages for a blu-ray release indicates that the series will only be available on DVD, while the description of the second season omits any mention of the OVAs that conclude the narrative. MVM’s official synopsis for the series is as follows:

For the past seven years, Kyousuke Kousaka’s relationship with his younger sister Kirino has been nothing but cold. It’s gotten the the point where the only talking the siblings do is to exchange greetings with each other. But one day, Kyousuke finds a moe anime DVD lying in the entrance hall of his house. His interest piqued, Kyousuke looks for the owner – only to discover it belongs to his very own sister Kirino. Shocked as Kyousuke was, this is just the beginning of the surprises that lie ahead…

In addition to being smart, pretty, and popular, Kirino Kousaka is also an obsessive consumer of anime and eroge. After Kyousuke promies not to mock her and keep this concealed from their parents, she starts to share a bit of her world with him. Kirino faces several problems as she tries to keep up appearances and balance her exemplary school life with her hobbies. Her brother becomes a crucial ally while dealing with all the difficulties that lie ahead.
