Love Stage!!
We haven’t heard much of anything about the anime adaptation of the boys-love manga series Love Stage!! since it was announced back in May 2013, but that’s changing this week. JC Staff has been set to adapt the work that will premiere in 2014 that’s based off of the manga by Eiki Eiki and Taishi Zao. The news came as the teaser site has opened for it that provides the first key visual for the show itself in terms of character designs. Serialized in Asuka Ciel, the title has been running since the summer of 2010 and has also had a spinoff called Back Stage!! as well. The series has three volumes to its name so far and continues to be ongoing.

Plot Concept: With a father who’s a singer, a mother who’s a movie star, and an older brother Shougo who’s the lead vocalist for the super-popular band ‘The Crusherz’, Sena Izumi–an otaku college student–is the only dull one born into this super famous and talented family. He loves “Magical Girl LalaLulu” and is working hard to become a mangaka, but one day he winds up appearing in a TV commercial he just can’t turn down. There, he’s reunited with Ichijou Ryouma, the super-popular young actor he costarred with on a project ten years prior.
