Kaichou wa Maid sama

First announced earlier this year, two series are finally having some details revealed via magazine articles. First up, Anime Nation linked to a report that the January premiere of Chu Bra will have animation produced by ZEXCS (who are also doing Onamori Himari this winter) and be directed by Hiro Yukina (Gakuen Heaven). I’d like it noted right now that this is a comedy about junior high schools in a fancy underwear club. It will also be airing on the Satellite network AT-X which made news earlier this year for refusing to censor the hentai disguised as action series Queen’s Blade. Once again I am reminded of the quote from Futabasha when the announcement was first made called this series a “slightly H girls comedy” and wonder exactly how slightly are we talking here?

Meanwhile, there’s no release date yet but the first crew members for Kaichou wa Maid-sama has hit the net as well. Animation is going to be handled by J.C. Staff (Karin, Honey and Clover, Nodame Cantabile), Hiroaki Sakurai (lots of Di Gi Charat but Nanaka 6/17 and Kodocha as well) will be directing and Yuki Imoto will be doing character designs.
