[Anime]/Sparrow's Hotel - Checking in April 9th

Well, this is definitely nice to see for once. The website for the adaptation of Yuka Santoh's, Sparrow's Hotel manga decided to announce everything all at once; cast, crew, premiere date and times in one shot! Definitely not the norm, but considering that this is a Takeshobo short, it does make a little bit of sense.

Each 5 minute episode will chronicle the working life of Sayuri Satō, who works at the Sparrow hotel’s front desk; this hotel is known for being the closest of its kind to heaven. Known for her assets and assassination skills, she uses her training to take down troublemakers in the hotel. However, she is in fact very unskilled when talking to the male hotel manager, and often bites her tongue.

All said, it sounds like it'll be amusing as hell. That and personally knowing a few folks who have worked in hotels, this could prove to be some kind of cathartic outlet for them..trust me, they need it.

The show premieres April 9th at 20:25 on AT-X.
