FUNimation brought out the complete run of Wallflower on Hulu last summer before it disappeared for a bit. This came after it had been a few years since the show saw its last S.A.V.E. DVD release back in 2010. Now the show has gotten its twenty-five episode run streaming back on Hulu in its English language adaptation only. We’re still hoping for the original Japanese language version to get the nod at some point as well.
The series was originally released back in the 2000′s by ADV Films, who did the dub work on it, and it ended up with FUNimation in the later part of the decade. The manga itself ended earlier this year after 36 volumes.
Plot concept: After years of sponging off a fabulously wealthy older woman, four ridiculously beautiful boys are confronted with the most horrifying challenge ever: they must use their bishie skills to turn their benefactor’s socially challenged niece into a beautiful young lady or start paying rent! And this isn’t just any ugly duckling they’re facing; she’s a psycho, paranoid, neurotic horror movie obsessed goth chick with a fetish for anatomical dummies, bad skin and a total ignorance of all things feminine! (And those are her better points!)
But hey, rent’s expensive and job openings for pretty boys are scarce, so our poor heroes are going to have to suck it up and attempt the ultimate combined exorcism/spa/makeover from hell!
