We learned back in December 2017 that Jasmine Gyuh’s manga series Back Street Girls is getting an anime TV series produced for it. Set for the summer 2018 season in July, the official site has gone live and we’ve got a new key visual and the main staff for it. The series has Chiako Kon directing it based on the series composition by Susumu Yamakawa. JC Staff is on board to produce the animation.
The book kicked off back in 2015 and has ten volumes out as of this month.
Check out the official site and Twitter.
Plot Concept: A group of 3 yakuza failed their boss for the last time. After messing up an important job, the boss gives them 2 choices: Honorably committing suicide, or go to Thailand to get a sex reassignment surgery in order to become “female” idols. After a gruesome year-long training to become idols, they successfully debut, with overwhelming popularity, much to their dismay. This is where their tragedy truly begins.
