With Isuca set to premiere in just a couple of weeks, Kadokawa has now set the release plans for the show in Japan. It looks like it’ll be another Kadokawa series that’s only going to go for ten episodes as we have five volumes solicited for it with two episodes per disc. The series begins its release on February 13th, 2015 with new volumes landing monthly starting in April. The Blu-ray releases, which are limited editions only, are priced at 7,600 yen each. The limited edition DVDs are priced at 6,600 yen each while the regular edition DVDs are priced at 5,600 yen each.
The first limited edition comes with a soundtrack and booklet with manga in it while on disc extras include a clean opening sequence.
The series comes from the manga by Osamu Takahashi which started in 2009 in Young Ace and has a few volumes to its name so far with the fifth volume released this summer. With the project set to be a TV series rather than OVA series as first speculated, there’s a lot of curiosity as to how the copious amount of nudity will be handled. The series is being produced by ARMS with Akira Iwanaga directing it based on scripts by Masashi Suzuki. The theme song for the series is set to be performed by Afilia Saga.
The series cast includes Ayumi Fujimura as Isuca, Saeko Zogo as Nadeshiko, Akane Kohinata as Matsuri, Yumeha Koda as Fumizuki, Sarah Emi Bridcutt as Kanae, Ibuki Kido as Sakuya Shimazu, Keisuke Koumoto as Shinichiro Asano, M.A.O as Suseri Shimazu and Kaori Sadohara as Tamako.
Plot concept: Shinichirou decides to look for a job in order to pay his rent, and his teacher suggests that he work for someone at their house,doing housekeeping. However, the person who hired him was Sakuya, a girl who is the 37th head of the Shimazu family, and her job is to exorcise and eliminate unwanted creatures. Shinichirou accidentally releases one of the creatures that Sakuya captures and they cooperate to catch it. A story of comedic creature hunting begins!
