Seems like pretty hardcore set there. Looking forward to this, although first chances of actually seeing this fansubbed is like ~9 months after the theater premiere due to DVD sales starting not until then.
So 2010 winter-spring here we come!
Something.

The title of the anime gives an impression that it would be something like Sakura Wars and "Seto no Hanayome. However, based on the synopsis.. It definitely sounds like something else, something either odd or features lots of surprises and twists.

Oh! I just realize that it is in the form of a 2 hour long movie. Not expecting much from it..
