HIDIVE to Launch “Super Dimension Century ORGUSS”

HOUSTON, TX — July 30, 2022 — HIDIVE announced today that it will add Super Dimension Century ORGUSS, the classic sci-fi anime series created by Big West (Macross series, The Irresponsible Captain Tylor, Floral Magician Mary Bell) and TMS Entertainment (LUPIN THE 3rd series, Dr. STONE, MEGALOBOX), to its immense retro anime lineup. The series will begin streaming on HIDIVE in Summer 2022.

In 2062, two technologically advanced regimes engage in brutal, all-out war. Desperate to put an end to the bloody standstill, pilot Kei Katsuragi launches a final attempt to destroy the weapon at the heart of the conflict: the dreaded Space/Time Oscillation Bomb. But Kei’s actions wreak unforeseen consequences and plunge his world into a maelstrom of intersecting alternate realities and timelines. Now he must try to reverse the effects of the detonated Space/Time Oscillation Bomb, but restoring the world to normal may be beyond his reach…

Super Dimension Century ORGUSS is directed by Noboru Ishiguro (Astro Boy (1980), Legend of the Galactic Heroes Gaiden, Star Blazers: The Quest for Iscandar) and Yasumi Mikamoto (Naruto: Shippūden, LUPIN THE 3rd PART 4, Bakugan Battle Brawlers) with script and series composition from Kenichi Matsuzaki (Space Runaway Ideon, Mobile Suit Gundam, Bubblegum Crisis).

The series stars Show Hayami (Ascendance of a Bookworm, Trigun, Bleach) as Kei Katsuragi, Run Sasaki (Mobile Fighter G Gundam, Crusher Joe, Violence Jack: Hell’s Wind) as Mimsy Laaz, Arihiro Hase (Macross, Macross 7, Lily C.A.T.) as Badei, Koichi Kitamura (Yu Yu Hakusho, One Piece, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex) as Govu and Masako Katsuki (Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Sailor Moon, Naruto: Shippuden) as Athena Henderson.

COULDN’T SEE REVUE STARLIGHT: THE MOVIE IN THEATERS? HIDIVE GIVES YOU A SECOND CHANCE THIS AUGUST

Revue Starlight: The Movie (Shoujo☆Kageki Revue Starlight Movie) had a limited theatrical run this summer, and we understand that not everyone got the chance to watch it. That’s why we talked to our pals at Sentai and made plans for a streaming debut on HIDIVE! Make Wednesday, August 24, 2022 a movie night because you can watch the movie as early as 1:00 PM ET (17:00 UTC)!

Trailer

Synopsis

The stage emulates life and compresses it, setting free skills learned over lifetimes in brief but dazzling displays for the amusement and judgment of others. For the performers, it is the ultimate risk, and some will rise while others must fall. Nowhere is this truer than at the Seisho Music Academy, where music, dance and real weapons all come into play in the creation of the next great Star. Karen and Hikari’s destinies have been linked since a childhood promise, but their journeys here have taken very different paths. Now, after Hikari leaves, Karen must discover who she is without her opposite, while Hikari must rediscover her own course. Nor are they the only girls who must reassess and change if they want to achieve their dreams, as the dance, magic, and swordplay continue in REVUE STARLIGHT: THE MOVIE!

Rather than take a more sensible approach to salvaging his grades in time for graduation, Alto summons a bit of otherworldly help. Only after does he learn he’s bound the legendary she-devil Vermeil into service as his familiar! But while Vermeil is a powerful ally sure to turn his grades around, only a kiss can replenish her magic, and that makes everything go to hell with Alto’s jealous childhood friend, Lilia.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

HIDIVE ENSNARES “THE EMINENCE IN SHADOW” FOR FALL 2022

HOUSTON, TX — SEPTEMBER 13, 2022 — HIDIVE announced today that it acquired exclusive rights to The Eminence in Shadow, the anime adaptation of Daisuke Aizawa’s hilarious isekai light novel series of the same name that has sold over 1.5 million copies since its publication. The series will premiere on HIDIVE this fall.

Some people just aren’t suited to playing the part of the flashy, in-your-face hero or the dastardly, mustache-twirling villain with larger-than-life panache. Instead, they operate in the shadows and pull the strings of society through wit and cleverness. That’s the role Cid wants to play when he’s transported to another world. Cid spins a yarn or three and becomes the unlikely leader of the underground Shadow Garden organization that fights against a menacing cult (which he totally made up). However, there’s a catch even his wild imagination didn’t see coming: the cult he concocted actually exists, and they’re beyond displeased that his power fantasy just got in the way of their evil plans!

The series is produced by studio Nexus (Granbelm, Chivalry of a Failed Knight) with Kazuya Nakanishi (animation director of Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World) serving as series director. Makoto Iino (Suppose a Kid from the Last Dungeon Boonies Moved to a Starter Town) handles character design while Kanichi Kato (Black Clover) provides series composition. The light novel is published in English by Yen Press.

The series stars Seiichiro Yamashita (Gatsby Colbert in How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom) as Cid Kagenou/Shadow, Kana Hanazawa (Seiryu Ubiquitous in Akame ga Kill!) as Alexia Midgar, Yoko Hikasa (Farnese in Berserk) as Iris Midgar, Asami Seto (Nobara Kugisaki in Jujutsu Kaisen) as Alpha, Inori Minase (Jeanne in The Case Study of Vanitas) as Beta, Suzuko Mimori (Hikari Kagura in Revue Starlight) as Gamma, Fairouz Ai (Jolyne Kujo in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean) as Delta, Hisako Kanemoto (Hinano Kurahashi in Assassination Classroom) as Epsilon, Ayaka Asai (Lisa Isaribi in Fire Force) as Zeta, and Reina Kondo (Ronie Arabel in Sword Art Online: Alicization) as Eta.

HIDIVE Acquires “Management of a Novice Alchemist” for Fall 2022

HOUSTON, TX — SEPTEMBER 21, 2022 — HIDIVE announced today that it acquired exclusive rights to Management of a Novice Alchemist, the heartfelt fantasy anime series based on the light novel of the same name by Mizuho Itsuki. The series will premiere exclusively on HIDIVE this fall.

Orphaned Sarasa just graduated from the Royal Alchemist Academy, and that means her longed-for life of elegance and riches is close at hand! As a graduation gift, her teacher gifts her a house to set up shop — but Sarasa’s dilapidated new digs are beyond far-flung. What’s a novice alchemist to do when they’re stuck in the middle of nowhere with a business to run and supplies to gather from a very dangerous natural world? Whether it’s facing down frightening fantasy creatures or finding creative ways to attract customers, Sarasa has her work cut out for her as she achieves her dream of becoming the greatest alchemist around!

Studio ENGI (A Certain Scientific Railgun T) handles animation production for this charming series. The series is directed Hiroshi Ikehata (episode director in Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood) with series composition from Shigeru Murakoshi (I’m Quitting Heroing, Zombie Land Saga). Yosuke Ito (The Detective is Already Dead, Key Animation for Pokémon XY) provides character design and serves as chief animation director.

The series stars Kanon Takao (Yuri in Encouragement of Climb Season 3) as Sarasa Feed, Hina Kino (Kaede Kurushima in Steins;Gate 0) as Lorea, Saori Ōnishi (Aiz Wallenstein in Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?) as Iris Lotze and Nanaka Suwa (Yui in BOFURI: I Don’t Want to Get Hurt, so I’ll Max Out My Defense.) as Kate Starven.

HIDIVE Acquires “My Master Has No Tail”

HOUSTON, TX — SEPTEMB ER 21, 2022 — HIDIVE announced today that it acquired exclusive rights to My Master Has No Tail, the anime adaptation of the manga serialized in Kodansha’s good! Afternoon magazine. The series will premiere exclusively on HIDIVE this fall.

Throughout time, supernatural, shapeshifting tanuki loved playing tricks on humankind. One plucky tanuki, Mameda, is no different. But there’s one big problem. She wasn’t born in the days of yore — she was born in modern, more cynical times! How can she fulfill her mischievous tanuki destiny when supernatural hijinks are a thing of the past? She finds an angle when she meets Bunko, a master of the Japanese art of rakugo, which uses storytelling to beguile its audience. Mameda is determined to use rakugo to cast a spell on humanity, but first this tanuki trickster must convince the no-nonsense Bunko to take her on as an apprentice.

The colorful world of My Master Has No Tail has been brought to life by animation studio LIDENFILMS (Call of the Night). It is directed by Hideyo Yamamoto (Cells at Work Code Black) with series composition from Touko Machida (Lucky Star). The series stars Hibiku Yamamura (Nanami Kuon in Ya Boy Kongming!) as Bunko and M.A.O (Yukari in Teasing Master Takagi-san) as Mameda.

The future home video release of My Master Has No Tail will be distributed by and available from Sentai.
