ODDTAXI

An original TV anime co-produced by P.I.C.S. and OLM. Written by Kazuya Konomoto (author of Seto Utsumi).

Hundreds of millions in cash, the semi-yakuza group "Yano & Dobu," idol group "Mystery Kiss," a charismatic college student, nurse Shirakawa, comedy duo "Homo Sapiens" — seemingly unrelated characters' stories interweave through Odokawa's taxi in this ensemble mystery. 13 episodes. Directed by Baku Kinoshita, music by PUNPEE, VaVa, OMSB. Main cast: Natsuki Hanae as Odokawa, Kappei Yamaguchi as Kakihana, Riho Iida as Shirakawa. Comedians Miki and Diane among the voice cast.
