Sentai Filmworks continues its recent string of anime series acquisitions with the futuristic thriller NO. 6. The broadcast and digital distributor Anime Network will add the 11 episode series to their Online Streaming Service starting this Sunday, August 7th. The entire series will be available to watch online for free (registration is required), with new episodes released online weekly on Sundays at 12:15 PM Central. Based on the manga written by Atsuko Asano and illustrated by Hinoki Kino, the post-apocalyptic mystery anime is the first series directed by storyboard and opening animation master Kenji Nagasaki (KIBA, MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM 00) with series script duties being handled by Seishi Minakami (HEAVEN`S MEMO PAD, LIVING FOR THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW) and character designs by Satoshi Ishino (EXCEL SAGA, PUNI PUNI POEMY). In a near-future world, after the last great war, most of mankind now lives in a handful of city-states. There, for the privileged elite, life should be perfect. But for young Shion, the only thing perfect has been the nightmare his life has become since letting a strange boy named Nezumi spend the night in his apartment. Banished to the outskirts of the city and stripped of all privileges for helping the mysterious stranger who has since disappeared, Shion now finds himself in even worse danger as his inquiry into a new series of mysterious deaths results in his being arrested on suspicion of murder! But even as Shion is being sent to the city’s Correctional Institute, the long missing Nezumi reappears to rescue him! Now, on the run, the two young men have only one chance at survival: uncover the mysterious secrets that lie at the sinister heart of City Number 6! NO. 6 is currently airing digitally on Crunchyroll, with a home video release of the series to follow next year.
