Summary:
Sōichi Negishi is a shy young man who came from the rural Ota Prefecture to Tokyo for college and wished to become a kindergarten teacher. However, for some reason he became the singer and songwriter of a metal band named "Detroit Metal City," with a stage name "Johannes Krauser II." Whenever he wears the heavy makeup, Negishi becomes a completely different person, shouting the most vulgar profanities beyond anyone's imagination. With the popularity of DMC increases, Negishi starts worrying his double personalities can have negative effects on his (romantic) life off stage.
To be honest, I wasnt expecting much when I watched this anime. I expected a terrible, KISS inspired piece of rubbish to entertain me for an hour or so. Well, I wasnt far off but regardless it was very good, if you have some time to kill. Heh, I even enjoyed the references to Kiss (even the name is a reference to the song "Detroit Rock City") and I dont even like KISS.
The best part is, it was captivating but at the end I was satisfied and not dying for a sequal that will never come. After all, that is the worst part of a good anime.
