Title Synopses:

KALEIDO STAR
Sora Naegino is an ordinary girl in every way except that she has a big
dream. She loves the Kaleido Stage - an extravagant circus show that’s
comparable to lavish Broadway entertainment. Her dream is to become the top
star of the Kaleido Stage known as the Kaleido Star. Sora’s life takes a
dramatic turn when the owner of Kaleido Stage recognizes her potential and
lets her join the troupe full of beautiful and unique performers.

Brace yourself as Sora plunges into the dazzling world of Show Biz. Sora’s
single-minded pursuit of her dream comes alive not only with acrobatic
stunts and showy costumes but also with romance, rivalry and friendship.

PEACEMAKER KUROGANE
Welcome to the days of ancient Edo-period Japan ­ a time of social chaos and
constant sword battle. PEACEMAKER KUROGANE follows the life of a young kid
named ‘TETSU,’ as he is driven to join the SHINSENGUMI ­ a sort of samurai
S.W.A.T. force ­ in search of power to avenge his father¹s murder. TETSU
dreams of learning their renowned fighting prowess in order to be strong
enough one day to face the shadowy figure who cut down his father. But along
the way, he faces the complexities of the SHINSENGUMI; he rarely obeys the
protective advice of his older brother ‘TATSU,’ and learns that perhaps his
destiny is as his father once told him: to be the PEACEMAKER!

It’s a world of war that desperately needs peace. And to achieve peace, a
peacemaker is needed…
