A synopsis of Oreshura: Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru – or ORESHURA for short – is an adaptation of a Japanese light novel.

"The protagonist, Eita Kidou, is a high school freshman with excellent grades and a disdain for love. He used to live a regular school life with his childhood friend, Chiwa Harusaki, a girl who's nearly a sister to him, but then one day the school's most beautiful girl, Masuzu Natsukawa, confesses to him. However, her true desire is only to fool the eyes of others and pretend to be a couple. With a certain secret of his in Masuzu's hands, Eita is forced to play along... But a fierce battle over Eita begins as his ex-girlfriend, Himeka, and his fiancé, Ai, join the fray!!" More information about Oreshura can be found at: www.AniplexUSA.com/oreshura

"We're happy to see that fans in several different countries will be able to watch Oreshura immediately after its airing in Japan" says Hideki Goto, the president of Animation Business of Aniplex of America. "Oreshura is another example how we continue to strive to provide fans with access to more anime content immediately as possible. 2013 will be a good year for new animated titles"
