HOUSTON, January 11, 2012— Sentai Filmworks is pleased to announce the acquisition of MOTTO TO LOVE RU,
the sequel series to the company’s previous hit TO LOVE RU. Based as
before on the manga by Kintaro Yabuki (BLACK CAT) and Saki Hasemi
(MOETAN,) the new 12 episode series is helmed by Atsushi Otsuki, (who
directed the final episode of the original series as well as episodes of
FULL METAL ALCHEMIST, the second season of WAGNERIA and LADIES VS.
BUTLERS,) working from series composition by SLAYERS and VENUS VS. VIRUS
vet Yasutomo Yamada, while Yuichi Ouka once again adapts Yabuki’s
original character designs for animation.
The
insanity that began when a very naked (and very female) alien
teleported into Rito Yuki’s bathtub (while he was in it) continues, and
even though Princess Lala has finally started to admit her true feelings
about the young man she’s inexplicably engaged to marry (as a result of
what happened in said bathtub and Develuke customs,) her sometimes
erratic technology and the snags and snarls of intergalatic politics and
intrigue are still causing major problems. That transporter, for
example? Still has the nasty habit of leaving the clothes behind.
Those alien bounty hunters? Yep, even more of them and they’re even
more devious. Add body switches, alien skunks, a bathroom that changes
size and shape, the inevitable sleepover that you just know is going to
go horribly, horribly wrong (spoiler: it does,) and worst of all,
Valentine’s Day, and even in space you’ll be able to hear Rito scream!
Love takes a quantum shift into the wrong gear and the star brakes are
broken in the extra-special, extra-crazy extraterrestrial romance to end
them all, MOTTO TO LOVE RU – The Complete Collection!
