As you may already know, fanservicey Weekly Jump action-comedy Medaka Box is getting the anime treatment from Gainax with the very popular Aki Toyosaki (K-ON!'s Yui) voicing the titular Medaka, and directed by Shouji Saeki, no stranger to titillating comedies as he's previously helmed He is My Master and the more low-key and dramatic This Ugly Yet Beautiful World.

The opening and ending theme artists have been announced for the series, featuring Minami Kuribayashi (Chrono Crusade and Kimi ga Nozomu Eien/Rumbling Hearts) handling the opening, with series lead character Medaka Kurokami herself being credited for the ending--meaning that Aki Toyosaki will be singing the ending theme as her (kinda scary) character.

So far the cast list includes:

Aki Toyosaki as Medaka Kurokami

Yuuki Ono as Zenkichi Hitoyoshi

Emiri Kato as Hansode Shiranui

Daisuke Namikawa as Kouki Akune

Ai Kayano as Mogana Kikajima

Not bad at all! Who else is looking forward to this goofy, action-filled romp that occasionally gets kinda dark? Anyone hoping it makes its way here to CR?
