(CR) Terraformars

The domain name Terraformars.tv has been registered and Young Jump is having a big announcement for the series next week so I think it's fairly safe to say it;s getting an anime adaption. If not feel free to delete this thread.



Since it's a pretty big manga in Japan I'm curious to see if it'll end up being another Attack on Titan in terms of scale (though hopefully the animation budget is handled better). Also curious who'll animate it and if they'll tone down the roaches a bit.

Hoping Sunrise does it.

Official confirmation for the anime: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...nd-video-anime

Looks like we'll be getting both a TV series and OVA's. My guess is the TV series will be based off Bugs III since that's where the story really starts and the OVA's will cover the Bugs I & II prequel arcs.

First episode's up now. Pretty alright start though it looks like they'll most likely be rearranging some stuff from the manga so not sure how that'll go. Direction's pretty good though as expected.

The animation budget though...looks like we're in for another AoT like scenario though this time they aren't hiding it through stills

Spoiler for plot:

Hizamaru Akari vs a bear in a cage fight?!
Damn, that was just insane.
His drama wasn't that original, but was painful for him.
At least it explains how he got recruited.
Guess the point of first half was to get to know Hizamaru better.
But they are getting there slowly.
Still, the second half started to involve the Mars mission.
Team members were gathered,briefed & shipped off to Mars.
The adventure begins with episode 2.

Solid start.

How many episodes? Possible anime ending is likely from the looks of the manga.

Adolf and Eva? Seriously???

Well, I'll probably give it a few more episodes for the story to kick off, but so far while it had some good parts I'm not won over.

Episode had simply atrocious censorship. Visuals are not impressive either.

[MisaoFan]

Spoiler for Episode 1:

I did watch the OVA before that. The only thing I hate is the terrible censorship in the early minutes but then since the level of gore was so extreme, I guess that's understandable, I just hope they lessen it as it goes on. The visuals look boring and trite (even though it's drawn realistically), there was too much dark colors and not enough rainbows to lighten it up. The story was okay, I did like the concept involving evolved superhumans fighting against cockroaches, I wanna see more of it, I even found the fights decent. Will give more episodes, since it did show some promise of being entertaining at best.

The censoring was awful, on Tokyo Ghoul levels. Eh, it was an underwhelming episode imo but hopefully will get better.

Meh. Story seems interesting, but the censorship is far too extended. There is no point watching this on air, same as Tokyo Ghoul.
Guess I'm gonna put it in PTW like TG and watch it when it's released in BD.

I just can't let it go..

1. Looks like EVERYTHING hasn't advanced at all in 600 years, they're still using rockets to launch people to space, ROCKETS! and people still get rich because of OIL! an oil tycoon is still a valid occupation, 600 years into the future even when scientists nowadays aren't even sure we have sufficient supply of oil to last us 50 years!!! they're even using microphones that have been phased out years ago! yep, they even have our present day cleavage revealing business suits!!

2. Yes, looks like they've fixed global warming though, because north america's coastlines are still the same 600 years in the future.

3. Sure, I can understand why algae was the first organism from earth that was sent to mars, but where did all those water come from? AND WHY SEND COCKROACHES THERE? are they purposely trying to keep everyone off mars? most people don't even want to enter a room with a single cockroach in it, but they fill an entire planet with them? AND THEY MUTATED INTO SUPER MACHO HUMANOID COCKROACHES?!

aside from that, the premise is interesting, and we all know that we'll eventually see some pest extermination action on mars!

Mars has water, just in ice form. As for why send the cockroaches, I have an idea, but maybe someone can clarify it better than me(ex. Fertilizer, warms the planet).
