It has an interesting and colorful animation.

A shut-in spies on her caretaker brother with her “onii-chan surveillance tool.”

The premise is about a stalker? LOL

More concept art!

The art an animation looks pretty great and very fateful to the original art, with that watercolor feel. In other hand the plot leaves me apprehensive, i hope Shaft can bring in a enjoyable story, because the art is already in good hands.

Here is the opening theme!

Sentai Film Works has licensed this anime for 12 episodes. It will soon be available for home release sometime this year.

Summary by Sentai Film Works:

The Japanese call them hikikomori - people who’ve become so withdrawn socially that they refuse to leave their homes for weeks and even months at a time. For Sasami Tsukuyomi, who’s attempting to pass her first year of high school despite being a shut in, it’s more than just a word. Fortunately though, she lives with her older brother Kamiomi, who just happens to be a teacher at the school Sasami is supposed to attend. Not to mention, her “Brother Surveillance Tool” which lets her view the outside world via her computer and will, theoretically, allow her to readjust to interfacing with people again. What it mainly does, however, is let her view her brother’s interactions with the three very odd Yagami sisters, who inexplicably seem to have had their ages reversed and have various types of “interest” in Kamiomi. And then things start to get really weird… Magical powers? Everything turning into chocolate? Is life via the web warping Sasami’s brain, or is it the universe that’s going crazy? It looks Sasami will have to take off her pajamas and go out into the “real” world to set things straight in Sasami-san@Ganabaranai!

@Acura_Max:

Bumped

The Anime Network has announced that they will stream this series every Friday starting on January 18 at 11:30 a.m. EST.

Summary by Anime News Network:

The story follows a hikikomori (shut-in) named Sasami Tsukuyomi (voiced by Kana Asumi) who is unmotivated about even changing clothes or eating. Her brother Kamiomi (Houchu Ohtsuka) takes care of her, even though she despises his slave-like nature. Sasami spends her days viewing the outside world via a "Brother Surveillance Tool" on her computer. In the outside world, the three beautiful Yagami sisters (played by Chiwa Saito, Kana Hanazawa, and Ai Nonaka) and Sasami's brother are in the middle of relationships worthy of a romantic comedy.

@takashichea: Thanks.

@Acura_Max:

Oh yeah, I forgot about the Anime Network. I haven't heard word from Funimation and their simulcasts. I'll check it out.
