Souichi Negishi is a shy young man who came from the rural Ota Prefecture to Tokyo for college and wished to become a kindergarten teacher. However, for some reason he became the singer and songwriter of a metal band named "Detroit Metal City," with a stage name "Johannes Krauser II." Whenever he wears the heavy makeup, Negishi becomes a completely different person, shouting the most vulgar profanities beyond anyone's imagination. With the popularity of DMC increases, Negishi starts worrying his double personalities can have negative effects on his (romantic) life off stage.

(Each EP will laep your time for 13-mins) Although this animu has "different quality" than any other animu. (When I posted "different", that means it's really different) You may not find any loli/moe/bishounen/bishoujo chara here. But it's awwright. The important point here is those Comedy thingy that will lead you to madness. There's a live-action movie for this animu too with [url=http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Matsuyama_Kenichi][b]L[/b][/url] as the Krauser lol. You can check [url=http://www.go-to-dmc.jp]the official site[/url] for moar info. And /o I recommend this for +17. IMO : A good animu for stress-reliever. [b]Go To DMC!!! Go To DMC!!! Go To DMC!!! Go To DMC!!! Go To DMC!!! Go To DMC!!! Go To DMC!!![/b] [i]*I wrote this review after watched EP3. And it brought me to madness.[/i][/quote]
