So is this movie a Japanese and Korean production or just Japanese?

Monkey D. Luffy · 2007-05-09, 23:08

Since it's Bones this should be something to look out for.

I donno, but does it matter?

All recent anime,s are created with the help of Korean animators.
As some Japanese producers say: we want Anime to become Universal.

But, I am against the Japanese soul in Anime,s to be sold of course...

To clear up possible confusion, Its not the movie DVD actually, but a DVD featuring a preview of the movie, staff interviews and all that usual stuff,

JohnnyD · 2007-05-15, 14:53

Any idea of where to watch the trailer?

It was removed from youtube.

Haohmaru · 2007-05-15, 16:33

Official site http://www.stranja.jp/ has it as a flash movie

Iwanihana · 2007-06-08, 21:29

Here is a plot summary in case anyone is interested.

Haohmaru · 2007-06-22, 07:10

http://www.stranja.jp/ official site has a new small clip. Check under movies in the side bar.

MrProphet · 2007-06-29, 21:07

Another small clip on the website. And boy is it bloody.

The whole "jump and swing" style of fencing is ludicrous, but very impressive. It allows BONES to show off everything they've got as far as animation goes.

I fight compared this to a less trashy version of Kawajiri's Ninja Scroll, but it looks like this could be a very cool ronin film indeed.

Haohmaru · 2007-06-30, 12:21

The animation is good, but it still got nothing on Rurouni Kenshin OVA IMO. I have to see more detailed fights to get a picture how big fights are going to be like.

Monkey D. Luffy · 2007-06-30, 16:45

Yeah the trailer looks good, Bones should not dissapoint with this one. The animation looks great.

GriS · 2007-06-30, 20:10

impressive... love the fluid fighting sequences... but i thought it's abit strange that there is not even a single warning here given the extreme gore in the short clips.

Haohmaru · 2007-07-03, 05:40

3rd clip is up http://www.stranja.jp/

SassyRobot · 2007-07-16, 23:59

The full trailer (now on the official site) was impressive. It only makes me want to see it sooner! I've got high hopes for this movie.

Looks great. I wonder whether, if/when it gets licensed, it mightn't be shown in theatres here in the States, marketed on the success of Fullmetal and Eureka. That'd be awesome; this definitely looks like the type of movie you have to see on the big screen.

I wish, but they companies are probably afraid that it'll flop and most likely, it will, due to the fact that people will bitch and complain and lots of people see anime as crap. We are the few that would enjoy it.

Here's a heads up on a sneak peak coming up:

http://character.biglobe.ne.jp/special/stranja/
