“Detroit Metal City” cast photo and trailer online

Anime News Network has the teaser trailer and first cast photo for Kiminori Wakasugi’s “Detroit Metal City”, and let me tell you, Marilyn Manson has nothing on these guys. Along with Kenichi Matsuyama as Sōichi, a.k.a. “Johannes Krauser II” and the man himself Gene Simmons as “Jack Ill Dark, The Emperor of Truth” as he’s now being billed, we’re introduced to Masayuki “Alexander Jagi” Wada (Yoshihiko Hosoda) and Terumichi "Camus" Nishida (Ryūji Akiyama). Move over Twiggy Ramirez, someone’s got a stage name that’s superior to yours!

The trailer looks fun. Here’s hoping that this makes the midnight screening circuit of the festivals here in North America after it opens in Japan.

Check out the story at Anime News Network and follow the link to the trailer: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-04-21/detroit-metal-city-teaser-posted-with-death-note-matsuyama
