Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken Volume 8

It was the trailer they made for Clutch That Machete With Strength! that convinced Sowande, the strong-willed secretary of the Student Council, to approve Eizouken as a campus club at Shibahama High. But Sowande has warned Eizouken all along that if they try to win an audience for their anime outside the school, they risk a collision between their creative freedom as amateur students, and the grown-up world of media and politicians. Now that clash has finally come, as the committee of TV anime pros judging their full-length version of Clutch That Machete With Strength! want its length to be just a bit shorter... meaning, they want the blood cut out of the battle scenes. If their experienced elders in the industry are trapped in a cosy image of what young people''s anime should be, what can Eizouken do to free their minds? There s more than the three million yen in prize money at stake for Eizouken - if nevertheless they persist, they may find their club disbanded!
