Detroit Metal City (DVD) (English Subtitled) (Ep.7-12) (End) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region 3

Wakasugi Kiminori's comedic manga Detroit Metal City is getting both an anime series and a live-action film in the summer of 2008. While Matsuyama Kenichi (Death Note) is busy shooting the big screen adaptation, Studio 4C - the animation house behind Tekkon Kinkreet, Memories, and Genius Party - is producing the OVA. Chockful of winking humor, straight-faced parodies, and thrashing music, Detroit Metal City follows the unlikely evolution of shy guy Soichi who moves from the countryside to Tokyo. His dream is to become a folk singer, but somehow he ends up the lead singer of the death metal band Detroit Metal City. Quiet and mild-mannered by day, Soichi turns loud and vulgar by night when his alter-ego "Johannes Krauser II" takes stage in goth face paint. Leading a strange double life, Soichi and band climb the ladders of the J-rock indie scene. Ueda Yuji voices main character Soichi. The film's stars Matsuyama Kenichi and Kato Rosa will also lend their voices to the anime series in other roles.

Soichi Negishi is a boy (still a virgin) who loves trendy easy-listening pop music like Swedish Pop. He left his mother and his hometown for Tokyo, dreaming to make a debut as a professional singer with the music he loves. However, instead, he ends up being hired by "Death-records" with a slave-like contract, being forced to sing "not trendy", not pop "but truly" satanical' Death-Metals. Being set up as the lead guitar-vocalist "Johannes Krauser LL" of the Death-Metal band "Detroit Metal City" (aka DMC), he ends up making an indie-record debut. Contrary to his sentiment and intention, his inner self and hidden gift as a metal artist flowers at a staggering speed. And the band becomes a smash hit overnight. DMC crazes the world by its radical performance and hilarious Iyrics. What upsets him more is that his dream girl met in college, Yuri, now works for a "Trendy" music magazine, hates DMC's music and style. In order to win her heart, Soichi has to hide his identity of "Krauser II". Swapping between the roles of the bastard "Krauser II". Soichi drives him mad and his stupid lies turn out to be funny jokes!
