With scant details available, it's been revealed Yasutaka Tsutsui's 1972 juvenile sci-fi novel Toki Wo Kakeru Shoujo (The Girl Who Conquered Time) will be adapted to animation in 2006. The work has a long and interesting history of past adaptation to live action, although this will be the first animation. Just after the original book's debut, NHK made the plot the basis of the first shonen drama series on it's network in 1972. A live action movie version directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi and staring Tomoyo Harada became a big hit in 1983. Various dramas and films followed through 2002 when TBS produced the last adaptation, a made for TV movie. J-Pop Idol Namie Amuro has a credit in a 1994 live action version. Kadokawa Shoten released a manga illustrated by Tsuga Nogaku in 2004.
A Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo manga started serializing in the shounen manga magazine Shounen Ace.
There are 2 volumes released of this manga (its finished).
Here are the covers:

Man, I just love Sadamoto´s artwork. It´s looking great, and I´m really looking forward to it.

Don´t forget to checkout the trailer people:

Thanks for the trailer link :)

Yeah, it does look great. now I'm looking forward for this even more :D

Sonhex 2006-05-23 15:05

Ah, so this is what that is. I keep seeing this in Newtype JP. The trailer looks very promising indeed. I like the character designs. I'm getting a sort of Earth Girl Arjuna vibe off of it and maybe a little Mimi Wo Sumaseba especially in the little details like the ladybird and the the wooden clock/chimes.

Madhouse seem to be pretty busy at the moment with this, Kiba, Yume Tsukai, Black Lagoon and others...

NeoSam 2006-07-14 18:02

I added the cover of the new shounen manga to the first post :P (it will be released on 26/7/2006)

Just saw the movie that just came out last saturday.
I didn't know about the manga, but let me tell you it's awesome. Perfect sets, cute heroin, great plot, great music, and of course good animation and good voices. I'm not sure this would never be licenced for a theater release in Europe or the US but why not in DVD?

Right now I feel like reading the novel. :D

Everyone in Japan, don't even hesitate to have a look at it, this is more than "juvenile", it's moving and funny, nostalgic in a way. Ok, I loved it. I guess it's because I had a real shitty day I wish I could take back. :heh:

It was published in France under the title "La Traversée du Temps" (roughly translated as "Cross through Time"), I had the novel from my school when I was ten. I fucking enjoyed it, the ending was kind of bittersweet.
I learnt about its adaptation as animated movie just today, but I didn't know it was that until I saw the name of the author of the original work and figured out I had the book in my belongings all along.

I am so wanting to watch it. Time travel being one of my favorite themes in the science-fiction genre.

So I am hoping that the french import the movie in their ground because of the past publishing of the book here.

raphaël 2006-07-25 01:28

I checked that after posting. Now I remember my college teacher quoting Tsutsui in a lecture. I'll definitely read it when i have the chance.

And as I said, this is a really good movie, you won't regret it. I'm just wondering if it hasn't been a bit "simplified" to fit in 100 mins format. :confused:

Haohmaru 2006-08-03 21:41

I read that this got 4.7 out of 5 :D so it must be good. Gedo Senki on the other hand only got 3.2 or something like that (I remember it getting an average point).
You can find a summary for the movie here: http://www.designchronicle.com/memen...mpression.html

Does anyone know when the DVD is coming out?

April 20.

We (Saizen) are going to sub it.

Kaoru Chujo 2007-02-11 16:32

I have the novella. It's good. It's fairly short, and the Japanese is pretty easy. The story was atmospheric and interesting. It's no wonder it has been adapted so many times. I'm looking forward to seeing it animated. I haven't seen the live-action movie, but it's around.

I love you.

Now where can I get my hands on the novel in a language I can read, hmm... (Oh, Amazon.fr has the french version... arr, but shipping is so costly.)

Jazzrat 2007-03-22 07:12

I stumble upon this anime when i was browsing about for information on Okami and found out it won the 2006 Japan Media Arts Festival award for the animation category. No idea how acclaim this award is but it beats anime like

a) GITS SAC: Solid State Society
b) Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi
c) Mushishi

so it must be something to watch for.

April 20th?! Wow that's only 10 days from now! (I know that it'll take a while to sub it after it's released, but even so....) Let the countdown begin! :heh:

Haohmaru 2007-04-10 15:31

Yeah, I know. I hope Saizen subs it fast. Can't believe how long I've waited for this to come out.

Haohmaru 2007-04-21 18:09

Well the raw has been out in tokyo (*Hint, Hint*). Anyway, anyone got a chance to watch it? I downloaded it just because I'm really curious and exited to watch this. I won't watch the whole thing, I'll probably just skim through it.

Anyone know who's subbing this besides Saizen?

I decided not to get that because I'm running low on drive space. :( So I hope Saizen will keep the AC3.

I've read plenty of rave reviews about this movie on Japanese blogs. Lots of voices saying it was the best anime of 2006.

Maceart 2007-04-22 04:20

It is the best anime movie of 2006 in my humble opinion. I give it a 9.6 out of 10 awesome anime points.
