The casting train continues for the upcoming Servamp anime series, something that will definitely boost the sales of the manga and all other products. THe latest issue of Monthly Comic Gene has arrived and within it they confirm that Yuuki Ono and Ayumu Murase firmly on board for the project. Ono is set to play Tetsu in the show while Murase will handle Hugh the Dark Algernon.
The show will star Takuma Terashima as Mahiru Shirota, Yuuki Kaji as Kuro, Hiro Shimono as Misono Arisuin, Tatsuhisa Suzuki as Tsubaki, Kazuma Horie as Snow Lily, Ryohei Kimura as Lawless and Nobunaga Shimazaki as Todoroki. This basically brings the cast from the drama CDs into the anime adaptation for the primary characters.
The work from Strike Tanaka began back in the summer of 2011 and has seven volumes to its name with Seven Seas Entertainment releasing them in North America. Now the newest cover for Monthly Comic Gene is revealing that the property will be getting an anime adaptation.
Plot concept: The story revolves around a 16-year-old boy (15 at the beginning of the story) named Mahiru Shirota who likes simple things and dislikes difficult things. One day, he picks up a stray black cat he finds in the middle of the road and gives it the name Kuro (which literally translates into “black”). From this moment on, a contract between the servamp Sleepy Ash and Mahiru is formed, and Mahiru is pulled into the Servamp war between the seven deadly Servamps and their eighth sibling Tsubaki.
