So, has anyone posted about this yet? (Here's the Mainichi article.)

Kawamori Shouji's new "multidimensional" project with Satelight, "The Fool." It's multidimensional because apparently it's going to mix various media such as live action, animation, novels, etc. It's sci-fi and it features historical people such as Oda Nobunaga, Leonardo da Vinci, Jeanne d'Arc, etc.

The title of the first episode is "Nobunaga the Fool" - a character drama fusing eastern and western history, a historical sci-fi live entertainment with fight scenes we've never seen before. Apparently it's going to be robot battles with Oda Nobunaga & other historical people on a planet where eastern type and western type worlds are at war with each other. Character designs by Kazuki Yone (yay!). It's set to be released this winter.

Official site, currently featuring info and Kazuki Yone's art for Nobunaga the Fool: http://the-fool-project.jp/

So apparently Kawamori didn't use up all the "good stuff" in Aquarion Evol... xD This is something I would've imagined good old Gonzo doing.
