Tokyo Delta Jetlag D is an action/drama animé series watched by Unwinder.[1] His main reaction to it was speculating on slash pairings. Barbecue Sauce is a big fan of the anime and the manga, and he dresses up as Jaded Lament for Harvest Festival, complete with Katagun made out of sculpey.[2]
Unwinder illegally downloaded Delta Tokyo Jetlag D after an online quiz recommended it. In keeping with his anti-subtitle attitude[3], Unwinder chose to watch the English dub of the series.
The anime is set in alternate-universe New Zealand. However in the manga it's kind of different. [4]
