~ update details ~

Band Kinniku Shōjo Tai (King-Show) formed in 1982 and was active through 1999 before inner turmoil and agency bankruptcy lead the group to suspending activities. They restarted the band in 2006 and released single Nakanaori no Theme (Theme of Reconciliation) along with original album Shinjin (Rookie) on September 5th 2007 – their first releases in nearly 10 years.

Anime Ushio & Tora (うしおととら) adapted from super-natural battle manga by Fujita Kazuhiro published from 1990 to 1996. The story follows Ushio who dismissed stories of an ancestor who defeated a strong demon terrorizing their town. But he finds the monster Tora impaled with the legendary spear in his basement. Now other evil spirits have evaded their town and Ushio must choose to gain the power of the legendary spear to protect his family and friends but release Tora which may be a bigger problem.
