One of the series that will be starting later in the spring 2012 anime season is that of Hyouka, the new work fromX that is based on the novel series by Honobu Yonezawa. With animation by Kyoto Animation, the series is one that is getting attention from there alone, but it has other reasons to be intriguing based on the production team and voice cast that was announced previously. The series has had some stills and basic information come out so far but today has seen the release of the first and lengthy three minute promotional video that gives us a good look at what it’s going to be like.
Plot Concept: The series is based on the first novel in the series by Honobu Yonezaw and involves a young man named Houtarou Oreki. Like many series he’s a high school student that doesn’t get involved but ends up joining the Koten-bu and finds himself involved with solving everyday mysteries.
