By the creators of festival darling and Reel Anime 2008’s breakaway hit, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, this is a lively action-comedy with amazingly creative visuals from studio Madhouse. Timid math genius Kenji has been asked away for a summer job with Natsuki, but his crush gets complicated when he finds out he’s to pretend to be her boyfriend! Meanwhile, what can Kenji and his new family do about the bizarre hacks in the online world of “OZ”, which are bringing real life to a halt?!
