We don’t normally see to many limited run anime programs come up, but they do from time to time and seemingly more often than not for more girls oriented properties. Such is the case with the anime adaptation of Sugar Soldier from Mayu Sakai. The manga has been running since 2011 with the sixth installment due out in January and that times well to the anime adaptation as TV Tokyo will be running it as part of the Oha-Suta children’s show on the network rather than its own series. The potential for it to become its own is obviously there if it does well enough of course. The specials will run as a part of that morning program on January 14th, 21st and 28th.
Plot concept: The show revolves around Makoto Kisaragi, a 15-year-old girl whose special ability”is her persecution complex. She was raised well but in relative obscurity compared to her big sister, a famous model. Despite her negative personality, Makoto vowed to become popular when she entered high school, but things did not turn out quite so well for her. One day, she meets Iriya, Mr. Popular in their class, and they become friends.
