Plot concept: A high school senior Murakami Ryota had a childhood friend called Kuroneko who died in an accident. Ryota had made a promise with Kuroneko that he will prove there are aliens in the universe. In order to fulfill his promise, he joined the astronomy club at the school as its only member and kept observing the stars almost every night. One day, a girl who looks like Kuroneko transferred into his class. To his surprise, the girl’s name is Kuroha Neko which is really similar to his childhood friend’s name. However it seems that there is something unusual about her. It turns out that she is a witch who actually escaped from a research laboratory.
Jamie Marchi…I don’t think I have ever seen her in a Sentai dub. This is going to be interesting.
I’m with Garrett here. It’s going to be interesting to see Funimation regular Jamie Marchi take a stab working on a Sentai dub.
