New Anime "Un-Go"

[dsojourn]

Greetings. Almost never come over to this section, but thought you guys might want a heads up. Studio Bones' new anime this season, "Un-Go", might be something to keep your eyes on. It's essentially a murder/mystery series with a unique detective and his associates that involves some supernatural flair here and there.

The object of interest is the main character's 'assistant', a creepy, peculiar young boy who goes around in a panda themed outfit. In reality, the same young lad is also the detective's boss, who is really a very tall, very, shall we say, well-developed panda-colored woman. It seems like s/he'll be shifting between these forms every episode, though the first episode kept the process off-screen for the sake of surprise I would imagine.
