Date: Wednesday, April 23, 2008

Anime director Tetsuya Nakajima---best known for his work on Kamikaze Girls---is about to oversee a series of anime shorts called Itsumo Wagamama Gama �ji (The Always Selfish Prince Gama). The shorts, which premiered in Japan on April 21, are based off the director's upcoming live-action file Paco and The Magical Book.

The film centers on a girl named Paco (Ayaka Wilson) who is recuperating from a car accident that left her unable to remember more than a day's worth of memories. She finds happiness in a picture book she reads every day by the lake near her hospital. The Itsumo Wagamama Gama �ji television series will recreate selected stories from that picture book.

Many of Kamikaze Girls' voice actors will be featured in the shorts and film, which includes; Anna Tsuchiya (Ichigo, Hiroyuki Miyasako (Momoko's father, Casshern's Akubon), Eiko Koike (Akimi), and Sadao Abe. DLE is handling the animation.

The 6-minute shorts will air every Monday from April to September
