The team behind the upcoming dark flick has revealed first poster, trailer (subbed) and stills from the set. Enjoy!
What to expect: kick-ass fighting scenes, aesthetics, flawless hair flapping, shounen ai
What to look forward to: conspiracy, bishounen (pretty boys) everywhere you look, costumes
Equipment: An eyepatch. You VS Shiori. Patient enough to watch the whole movie wearing one?
Excitometer: ★★★★★ Kuroshitsuji? Already a good enough reason to watch it. Gothic and mysterious enough to grab our attention. And with the author Yana Toboso on set it's pretty obvious - this won't go the wrong way.
