THERMAE ROMAE

Another in our noitaminA range, this short historical comedy series comes with extra weird-sauce. A time travelling Roman architect stuck for ideas ends up in a modern-day Japanese bath-house and learns a lot about male hygiene. Better believe it!

Totally obscure and oddball in practically every sense, Thermae Romae is another exclusive Region 4-only noitaminA release from Siren and will be released along with a slew of extras in July.

Due to issues with the licensor, we've unfortunately had to reschedule Thermae Romae - more news later today.

Well whenever it comes out , assuming it isn't announced for an american release in the meantime , i'll be picking this up. One of the funnier series i saw recently despite its short nature. It reminded me (like so many noitamina shows do) of something you might see on Adult Swim, just with a Japanese style.
