Well this is just my perspective, but I would consider Eureka Seven as an example of a good Bones series and Star Driver as an example of a poor one.

Oh wow, I missed that announcement.

RahXephon
Wolf's Rain
Fullmetal Alchemist
Ouran High School Host Club
Darker than Black

I may be missing some more

EDIT: A friend of mine just corrected me that Rebuild is produced by Studio Khara, Anno's studio. Sorry for misinfo. Looks like Gainax sucks now then

hmm ... Fma series? Wolf's Rain? RahXephon? DTB? And Eureka7 was also pretty decent actually. There's also movies like Cowboy Bebop KOHD or Sword of the stranger.

Oh, I still feel bad for them, but that's better than anything.

maximilianjenus · 2012-08-10, 17:12

thanks for the bones recomendations, though I guess it's kinda offtopic; but yeah, I am kinda anonyed that I never considered that this might be only an ova.

Actually, Anno has maneuvered those into the hands of his vanity studio, Khara, as main producer and distributor. GAINAX is barely getting a sniff of the revenue.

Kirarakim · 2012-08-10, 19:36

I guess I will give this a shot because of the staff involved but the PV didn't exactly peak my interest at all.

Gainax has Gurren Lagann & Gunbuster, they don't really need anything else from personal perspective. So they aren't the same studio that made NGE, things change. I am sure this same discussion will happen about Kyoani & Shaft in the future.

redgrnbluylw · 2012-08-10, 22:14

I wonder why Shaft isn't revealing the format of this animation or when it will air. Like said before, it may only turn out to be a series of shorts or OVAs, but I really want it to turn out to be a series. Anyway, what is the possibility that this will air in the fall? Seriously, think about it. There is already quite a bit of animation that has been done, and the trailer seems to have two pieces of theme music. Two! OP & ED, anyone?

On the other hand, the Nendoroids are pretty suspicious. Another theory I have is that these Nendoroids were created first, and then Shaft was hired to make an anime out of them. Or OVAs, at least. I don't know how likely that is, but if it's true, I'll be kind of disappointed.

I'm pretty sure we'll have all the info in a couple days when comiket is over...at least I hope so.

sirn · 2012-08-11, 02:06

Since they put "reference exhibition" in sculptor credit, I'm sure those Nendoroids are printed from 3D printer. The way GSC's staff put it make me think it's not for Nendoroid promotion ("we're producing figurines for much anticipated Kantoku x SHAFT works!").

I didn't know the PV mentioned this. Maybe we do have a "surprise" factor here after all.

BaKaBaKaOtaKu · 2012-08-11, 06:06

It's official I like the green-ranger. And I hate the blue-ranger loli uugh. With the colors, I'm very much reminded of Magic Knight Rayearth. LOL. It's like Fuu, Umi and Hikaru.

ivari · 2012-08-11, 08:48

Kotone = Splash Nana
Itaru = Heat Nana
Asuka = Earth Nana

Nana is the "ranger" term equivalent in this show.

I'm positive that Kotone is voiced by Kitamura Eri.

Most of this already in the PV, with an exception of extended character profile and the city name (七葉市 Nanaha-shi? I'm not sure if this is the correct reading.)

You sure?

Depressed ghost girl on the trailer

sirn · 2012-08-11, 12:15

I'm sure she's pretty much alive. Likely Itaru's little sister.

The third one sounded like Imai Asami to me so it's probably her or some new voice actor who has a similar voice to hers.

Dark Wing · 2012-08-11, 13:10

Okay after watching the preview I don't know what to think. For something that's following in the foot steps of madoka it seems plain but I know its going to work because magical girl stuff sells. However I will wait for the show to air before I hold my final judgement after all madoka had us going for a minute as well before the WAM! Episode.

dark998 · 2012-08-11, 13:14

Damn, a flashy PV almost always wins me over easily. If this becomes a real series I will check it out for sure.
