Eccentric Family Series Collector's Edition Blu Ray

| Blu Ray

In modern day Kyoto, humans live in the city, tengus take to the sky, and tanukis roam the earth. One such tanuki is Yasaburo, the third son of Soichiro Shimogamo, famed tanuki leader who met his end far too early at the hands of a group of humans and their year-end banquet hot pot. Yasaburo has since embraced his "fool's blood" and strives for a happy, carefree life. But between taking care of his old tengu master Akadama-sensei, avoiding the life-threatening advances of the beautiful human Benten, dealing with his dangerously stupid twin cousins, and avoiding becoming... a hot pot himself in the next year-end banquet, the young tanuki has his proverbial work cut out for him! Contains episodes 1-13 plus a full-colour 64-page hardcover art book with episode guides, character info, and illustrations. [show more]

All 13 episodes from the Japanese anime based on the novel by Tomihiko Morimi. The plot is centred around the Shimogamo family - brothers Yasaburo (voice of Takahiro Sakurai), Yaichiro (Junichi Suwabe), Yajiro (Hiroyuki Yoshino), Yashiro (Mai Nakahara) and their mother (Kikuko Inoue), who are all tanuki, beings who can transform into humans, animals or objects. The boys' father was killed and cooked in a hot pot by the Friday Fellows, a social group of tengu, creatures who roam the sky. When Yasaburo meets Benten (Mamiko Noto), a human who was raised as a tengu, he is taken with her despite her association with the club. Elsewhere, Yaichiro, who hopes to be elected as the next tanuki leader, discovers one of his brothers may have been involved in his father's death. The episodes are: 'Goddess of the Noryo-Yuka', 'Mother and Raijin, God of Thunder', 'Yakushibo's Inner Parlour', 'Daimonji Leisure Cruiser Battle', 'The Friday Fellows Club', 'Autumn Leaf Viewing', 'Bath House Rules', 'The Day That Dad Left', 'Daughter of the Ebisugawas - Kaisei', 'Behind the Scenes of Soun Ebisugawa', 'Try Again Even Harder', 'The Fake Eizan Electric Car' and 'The Eccentric Family'.
