SANTA MONICA, CA (March 4, 2013) – Following its recent release of the Oreimo Blu-ray Disc Set last month, Aniplex of America Inc. announced the acquisition of the second season of Oreimo and that the series will be streaming online. Oreimo's highly anticipated sequel will be available streaming just hours after its initial airing in Japan. After Kyosuke and the others overcome the crisis of Kirino suddenly leaving to study abroad, what kind of craziness will her "life counseling" cause next? In addition to their streaming plans, Aniplex of America is also planning on a home release version of Oreimo 2 on disc. Details about the physical release will be announced on a later date.

ClariS' seventh single "reunion" has been announced! Debuting with "irony" in 2010, the musical duo will be singing for the second season of Ore no Imōto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai, airing in April 2013. The new opening "reunion" is composed and arranged once again by livetune's kz, made in a sparkling pop style.

When I first heard of Oreimo, I thought to myself, "yet another series that I must keep from watching in front of family and friends because it's borderline super ecchi (sexually suggestive)." [Editor's note: Aniplex licensed the series as Oreimo, a shortened version of the original Japanese: Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai, which translates to, My Little Sister Can't Possibly Be This Cute.] I was surprised to discover that the title was misleading, and the series has deeper themes like: acceptance, understanding, family bonds, and of course love for anime, manga, doujinshi (fan-made comics), and eroge (adult computer games).

Japanese pop music idol duo ClariS has caused a huge stir in Japan and has caught the attention of mainstream media for starting their career when they were only in junior high school. While the pair have not revealed their true identities, they are best recognized through their illustrations drawn by popular artists often from the anime titles they are involved in. Their music has appeared in popular anime series such as Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, and Nisemonogatari. Learn more about the duo and find out how they feel to have their first album "Birthday," released in the United States (iTunes, Amazon)!

Alice and Clara are definitely special. Being the popular junior high idol unit known as ClariS, they have been made famous by singing the opening songs for popular anime series such as Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai and Puella Magi Madoka Magica. In tandem with their recent single release, Good Smile Company has created the vessel for their Nendoroid debut.
