Kometokaita Meter's story of narcissistic Hagito, masochistic Kei, other colorful characters

The wraparound jacket band on Kometokaite Meter's first Narudoma manga volume is announcing on Friday that a television anime has been green-lit for this year.

The "unorthodox hard surreal gag" comedy centers around the narcissistic (narushi na) Hagito and the masochistic (domazo na) Kei. Together they are "Narudoma."

Hagito is a handsome yet pitiful man with a loli complex. Anytime, anywhere, a mirror is his constant companion. Surrounding him are a host of highly idiosyncratic characters: the diehard masochist Kei, the unnaturally strong yet girlish Totono, the exceedingly stylish working stiff Saitō, and the extraordinarily negative Roku. Even the one normal guy has his own issues.

The manga runs on the free manga app comico, where it has garnered 7.5 million downloads.
