Sepertinya dari kemarin banyak yang sudah bisa menebak acara simulcast Ponimu di awal tahun 2019 ini. Jawabannya adalah:⠀ ⠀ MEIJI TOKYO RENKA⠀ ⠀ Anime yang satu ini pastinya punya rasa 'berbeda' dibandingkan dengan anime-anime yang Ponimu bawakan sebelumnya. Saya rasa juga anime ini mungkin bisa jadi 'kejutan' bagi yang sudah menunggu-nunggu acara simulcast Ponimu berikutnya.⠀ ⠀ Acara yang satu ini memang berbeda, karena fokusnya lebih ke acara romansa dan saya yakin yang suka drama-drama seperti HanaKimi atau Atashinchi no Danshi pasti suka yang tipe-tipe begini. (Horikita Maki FTW). Berikut adalah sinopsisdari Meiji Tokyo Renka.⠀ ⠀ SINOPSIS⠀ ⠀ Meiji Tokyo Renka bercerita mengenai kisah Mei Ayazuki, seorang gadis SMA biasa. Namun suatu malam dengan bulan purnama berwarna merah, dia terlempar kembali ke era Meiji oleh Charlie, seseorang yang mengaku kalau dirinya adalah seorang penyihir.⠀ ⠀ Dia terdampar di era Meiji di Tokyo yang aneh, di mana keberadaan hantu sudah diakui. Mei kemudian diajak Charlie pergi ke Rokumeikan, di mana tokoh-tokoh bersejarah Ougai Mori, Shunsou Hishida, Otojirou Kawakami, Kyouka Izumi, Gorou Fujita, Yakumo Koizumi, dan Tousuke Iwasaki sudah menunggunya.⠀ ⠀ Ternyata Mei memiliki kemampuan melihat hantu yang disebut Tamayori, kemampuan ini sangat dihargai pada era tersebut. Namun karena kemampuan inilah hubungan Mei dengan para pria ganteng era Meiji ini juga akna bergejolak.⠀ ⠀ Apakah Mei bisa pulang ke era-nya sendiri, ataukah dia harus tinggal bersama belahan dirinya yang dicintai di era yang menembus ruang dan waktu ini? ⠀ ⠀ Ayo nonton Meiji Tokyo Renka, simulcast hanya di Ponimu.⠀ ⠀ #ponimu #ponimuid #meijitokyorenka #meitokyo #anime #streaming #simulcast
