sengoku basara

It seems some anime characters are involved in Japan politics!

The administration of the election for Miyagi Prefecture Governor made a PR poster featuring a character of Sengoku BASARA, Date Masamune. Seiyuu Nakai Kazuya will play Date in the TV and radio advertisements. Miyagi Prefecture printed 10,200 copies of the poster and 890,000 copies of the handbill. The election administrators expect Date to encourage the young people to vote.

For fans of Sengoku Basara, there are good news. A full length version of the OP animation of  Sengoku BASARA  was announced to be released. It's called "Ashigaru Dance" and will be included in a special DVD distributed to those who complete the limited editions of the BASARA DVDs.

The real thing that scares me are MAD Videos...Can you imagine this with Haruhi's ED song?...I wonder if it will reach Hare Hare Yukai Legendary status...Probably!
