Kyousogiga
A one shot, original net animation that premiered December 2011, Kyousogiga (Capital Craze Comic) takes place in an alternate version of Kyoto where Koto and her two brothers are trying to track down a black rabbit so they can return home.
It has recently been announced that there will be more of this anime to come, though if it will be a full TV anime or another OVA is still unknown at this point.
Tropes used in Kyousogiga include:
- Action Girl: Koto
- Alice Allusion: Kyousogiga is supposed to be based off Through the Looking-Glass, though you'd have a hard time knowing it if not for the whole "finding the rabbit" gig, chess imagery, and quotes from the books.
- Badass Labcoat: Shouko
- Bash Brothers: A and Un
- Conspicuous CG
- Dirty Old Monk: Myoe to a degree.
