The winter 2018 anime season series Saiki Kusou no Sainan has its home video release being handled by pony Canyon and they’ve set a familiar plan for it. Set to be like the first season, the hsow is scheduled for four volumes beginning on April 18th, 2018. The release is priced at 9,400 yen for both of the separate DVD and Blu-ray releases.
The show was directed by Hiroaki Sakurai based on the series composition from Michiko Yokote. Masayuki Onji served as the character designs while JC Staff and Egg Firm will be handled the animation production for it.
The Japanese cast includes Hiroshi Kamiya as Kusuo Saiki, Mitsuo Iwata as Kuniharu Saiki, Rikako Aikawa as Kurumi Saiki, Nobunaga Shimazaki as Shun Kaidou, Daisuke Ono as Riki Nendou, Yukari Tamura as Chiyo Yumehara, Ai Kayano as Kokomi Teruhashi, Satoshi Hino as Kenishi Hairo, Natsuki Hanae as Reita Toritsuka, Tomoaki Maeno as Makoyo Terukyo, Maaya Uchida as Chisato Meyro, Showtaro Morikubo as Uryoku Chouno and Yoshimasa Hosoya as Aren Kubayasu.
The manga comes from creator Shuichi Asou which began back in 2012 and has seventeen volumes published so far. It’s not been picked up for release outside of Japan (yet). A flash anime short-form series was produced in 2013 for it, which has a different cast than what this series will have. A light novel was also produced in 2013.
Plot concept: Saiki Kusuo has a wide array of superpowers at his command, including telepathy and telekinesis. This might sound awesome, but, in Kusuo’s experience, superpowers are not all they’re cracked up to be. He tries to live a normal life, despite his annoying abilities.
