CATDOLL: A lot of information about "Pure Maria" is released, and you can take a sneak peek at the trailer PV

"Pure Maria" (純潔のマリア) is an anime based on the manga of the same name by Japanese manga artist Masayuki Ishikawa. It was also released in January 2015. Recently, the official released a lot of new information about the work, including promotional visuals, PV trailers, voice actor information, and OP and ED information. Judging from the pictures, it is many times better than the manga version. I just don't know if the storyline after the adaptation can be as good as the manga *hehehe*.

The first trailer of "Pure Maria":

As for the theme song, the OP "Philosophy of Dear World" is sung by ZAQ, who sang two OPs in the "Chuunibyou ga Koi ga Shirai!" series and the ED of "TRINITY SEVEN", while the ED is sung by TRUE (Miho Karasawa), a female singer who sang the OP of the OVA "Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet ~Distant Tour~". The OP and ED singles will be released on January 21 and February 11 next year respectively.

"Pure Maria" is a manga created by Masayuki Ishikawa, the author of "Bean Sprouts", and serialized in the magazine "good!AFTERNOON" published by Kodansha. The work was serialized in July last year, and all 3 volumes of the single volume have been released.
