Darkroom, a video streaming platform specializing in independent, foreign, arthouse, and cult classic genre benders, delivers an intriguing new anime release to audiences as it announces the addition of Angel Densetsu.

The 2-episode OVA produced by Toei is based on an acclaimed manga by Norihiro Yagi (who also created Claymore) and depicts the misadventures of a kind and naive boy named Seiichiro Kitano who has the heart of an angel, but the sinister looks of a devil. Time and time again, he tries and fails to prove that he is not a demon, and he hopes to one day be able to have friends who look beyond his scary disposition.

The Darkroom platform is available as an app from all major platforms including Google and Apple stores and via the web at www.darkroom.film. Monthly memberships are only $2.99.

Upon transferring to Hekikuu High School, Kitano soon discovers that his pale skin, sharp features, and awkward social skills make everyone assume he is a vicious delinquent or drug addict. This is compounded by his horrible luck and awkward social skills, which only cause more hijinks. Polite attempts to be friendly or helpful are constantly misinterpreted as threats or brutal acts of violence by students and local thugs.

Through pure coincidence, Kitano accidentally knocks out the school’s top fighters and is crowned the supreme head thug and “School Guardian,” despite remaining completely oblivious to his terrifying reputation. The comedic situations intensify as he tries to reconcile his fierce erroneous reputation with his true self.
