What is C3?
C³ is a twelve-episode action comedy series that aired in fall 2011, adapting Minase Hazuki's light novel into an eclectic mix of supernatural action and comedic moments. The story follows Yachi Haruaki, a high school student with natural curse resistance who receives a mysterious black cube from his father—only to discover it transforms into Fear, a girl who is herself a cursed torture instrument. Together they battle other cursed objects and their wielders, with Fear's unique abilities proving essential to their victories.
The series balances its action sequences with plenty of humor and fanservice, making it suited for viewers who enjoy supernatural shonen elements without taking themselves too seriously. With its completed twelve-episode run, C³ offers a full narrative arc without cliffhangers, though it remains adapted material that condenses its source material. The premise of cursed instruments as both antagonists and allies gives the show a distinctive angle on the magical action genre, distinguishing it from more traditional battle-focused anime of its era.
From the light novel series written by Minase Hazuki, comes a story of love, action, and comedy. Yachi Haruaki is a high school boy who is naturally resistant to curses. After his father sends him a mysterious black cube, Haruaki awakes to find a nude girl named Fear standing in his kitchen. She’s the human form of the cursed black cube – and an instrument of torture! Utilizing her special abilities, Fear fights alongside Haruaki to defeat other cursed instruments and their owners.
