About [C]
The Japanese government was rescued from the brink of financial collapse by the Sovereign Wealth Fund. For its citizens, however, life has not improved, and unemployment, crime, suicide, and despair are rampant. Kimimaro, raised by his maternal grandmother after the disappearance of his father and the death of his mother, is a scholarship student whose only dream is to avoid all this and live a stable life. One day, however, he meets a man who offers him a large sum of money if he'll agree to pay it back. From then on his fate is radically altered as he's drawn into a mysterious realm known as "The Financial District."
Just watched th eFirst ep today. Its crasy and very interesting. If you ask me scociety lives for money anyway. If they don't have cash they use their credit cards like no tomarrow. Will be intersting to see how this story turnes out.
I reject your reality and replace it with my own.
I have watched both of the first two episodes and so far I am enjoying this much more than I had expected. Time will tell if this show stays this good but right now I am optimistic.
Has anyone noticed the video player used here is Hulu but when you look on their site you can not find this show?
You probably have to use the search feature to find it:

Eat well.
Soymilk Purin,
You are right the show is under the animation / cartoons category. I was just looking under the anime sub category.
