After being seen through secondary sources, Pony Canyon has brought out the promo for the manga bundled anime for Kamisama Kiss, which has a slightly shorter run time to it. The project took a fun turn recently when it was split into two parts. The arc is intent on covering the past-arc segment of the series, which ran through about four volumes of the manga and covered a lot of material.The first installment of it will be shipping with the 22nd volume of the manga on August 20th, 2014. The second episode will be done with the 23rd volume of the series that’s schedhuled for a December 18th, 2015 release date. The episodes are currently titled with God, Leaps into the Past and Fox, Falls in Love. The project will be using the same team as the TV series that ran this past winter with Akitaro Daichi directing at TMS Entertainment once more while Junko Yamanaka is on board again as the character designer as well as chief animation director.

Plot concept: Nanami was just a normal high school girl down on her luck until a stranger’s lips marked her as the new Land God and turned her world upside down. Now, she’s figuring out the duties of a deity with the help of Tomoe, a reformed fox demon who reluctantly becomes her familiar in a contract sealed with a kiss. The new responsibilities—and boys—are a lot to handle, like the crow demon masquerading as a gorgeous pop idol and the adorable snake spirit who’s chosen the newly minted god to be his bride. As the headstrong Tomoe tries to whip her into shape, Nanami finds that love just might have cute, pointed fox ears. With romance in the air, will the human deity be able to prove herself worthy of her new title?
