Pied Piper, Inc. Relaunches US Release of Skip Beat on Kickstarter! - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

Pied Piper, Inc. announces its acquisition of the North American home video license for the anime series Skip Beat! with a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign in March to produce the release. In the 25-episode shojo series, 16-year-old Kyoko Mogami is devastated to learn that her long-time crush Sho Fuwa has been using her as a servant while he waltzes to stardom. She vows to beat him at his own game and joins a rival talent agency, and in the process transforms from a docile people-pleaser to ingenious creative talent. The anime’s riveting story arcs include Kyoko’s discovery of friendship with fellow actress Kanae (“Moko”) Kotonami and her tumultuous relationship with romance-challenged star Ren Tsuruga, who slowly leads her away from revenge and returns her to the path of love.

The Kickstarter campaign will run from March 17th through April 16th.

The English dub will have Mela Lee (Rin Tohsaka in Fate/Stay: Night, Yuuki Cross in Vampire Knight, Shinku in Rozen Maiden) acting as executive producer along with Cristina Vee (Sailor Mars in Sailor Moon, Homura Akemi in Madoka Magica, Mio Akiyama in K-ON!) and Jason Charles Miller (Avatar: The Last Airbender, Final Fantasy XIV, World of Warcraft, Hellsing, and owner of Central Command Studios).

The $100 and $150 tiers were upgraded to DVD/Blu-ray combo sets after reaching the $185K stretch goal to produce the Blu-ray.
