Carnival Phantasm

Well, any anime that can make me laugh this much and dance along with the music.. And it's just the commercial.

Basically it's an anime made to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the visual novel company Type Moon. Their most famous games (and derivative anime) are Tsukihime and Fate/Stay Night.
Both of these visual novels/anime are set in a modern setting with strong supernatural themes. (Fate/Stay Night is pretty much a war between wizard competing to get the Holy Grail, while Tsukihime is mostly about vampires.)
Both are also rather dark settings.
The thing is, though. Type Moon loves to throw these curve balls with bonus content or just "stand-alone expansions" (closest descriptions I can think of) to the games that is completely ridiculous and just funny as hell.
This is one of those things.
Most characters in this anime would kill each other on sight. Many of them are complete monsters. Some literally.
And this entire thing is just...
Basically, my feelings for this anime can be summed up in four words:
I. MUST. HAVE. THIS.
It's just so incredibly, wonderfully, silly to see some of those characters in the situations they're in in that commercial.

STOP THE PRESS!
I figured I'd check if I could find any subs for it, just for fun. I mean, there won't be any out yet, it was released just a few days ago, but it couldn't hur--Episode one is already out.
MINE!
