Kenji Kamiyama’s Napping Princess to broadcast on VICELAND UK
VICELAND released another stealth announcement a week ago and today we now have confirmation!
Kenji Kamiyama’s latest film Napping Princess will be broadcast on UK television channel VICELAND UK starting Tuesday 27th March 2018 at 9:00pm (British Standard Time) in English audio. This is also one of the latest releases from UK distributor Anime Limited which is available to own on Blu-ray and DVD.
Kokone should be diligently studying for her university entrance exams, but she just can’t seem to stay awake. Aside from stealing precious study time, her napping is even more distracting, as it brings on strange dreams with warring machines that hint at family secrets that have been dormant for years.
She can’t ask her father, a hipster mechanic more talented and artful than his job requires, as he’s always busy modifying motorcycles and cars in flights of fancy. What are these visions that lead Kokone at once closer to and farther away from her family?
