Blood-C Theatrical Movie: The Last Dark (CLAMP/Production IG)
Official Site: http://blood-c-movie.jp/index.html Official Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3l3-aVf5CEE Continues right after the TV series, set in Tokyo. Director: Naoyoshi Shiotani Original Character Design: CLAMP Character Design/Chief Animation Director: Kazuchika Kise Script: Nanase Ohkawa (CLAMP), Junichi Fujisaku Animation Production: Production IG The movie started production at the same time as the TV series with a different core staff at Production IG. It will open in Japan on July 2nd 2012. Spoiler for Key Visual:
Here's a translation of the movie plot summary from the site: Tokyo, Winter. Despite the use of the Youth Ordinance Bill to enforce curfews for minors and regulate the use of the internet, young people continue to fight for their own freedom through underground methods. One such group calls themselves Surat. They have decided to take on Fumito Nanahara, a man who has great influence on the political world, and basically controls Tokyo with an iron fist. While using the internet as a weapon to discover more information about Fumito, they learn about "Tower", the secret organization behind Fumito which engages in human experimentation. When members of Surat attempt to set up an ambush in the subway to expose the truth behind "Tower", mysterious creatures suddenly appear and attack the passengers. During this crisis, Saya appears - a young girl who uses a Japanese blade to slay the Old Ones. The same Saya who lost everything dear to her in that horrifying incident in Ukishima Province. What sort of "experiment" is Fumito and "Tower" trying to conduct using the Old Ones? And can Saya finally deliver vengeance to Fumito? Now, the final battle begins...

Blood-C is a must watch show if you're any kind of anime fan. And by watch, I mean watch just episodes 9 and 12. Or just episode 12 by itself. Otherwise, you'd miss out on the most signature anime show of either 2011 or of all time.

So Shiotani really is the director. Brilliant news! The trailer looks gorgeous. I have a good feeling about this movie.
The synopsis is hilarious considering who's sponsoring the movie. Either they are not as stuck-up as I thought, or they had no idea what they signed up for.

Damn, this movie looks great.
The series was slow for the first 5 episodes, then things picked up aftert that and got more interesting, so i'm glad I stuck around and watched the entire thing, because now I get to anticipate this movie and willingly wait to watch it.

Edit: Just watched the trailer. Now THAT looks like a proper Blood story. It's what I expected the show to be when I first heard of it, but alas. And the animation quality looks even more amazing than the show, which I guess is understandable. Although I don't see why Saya is back in a schoolgirl uniform. I know it's a staple of the franchise, but still, wasn't this Saya never really a student? Plus it doesn't even look like her fake school's uniform. |

Keeping with the series' trademark items is an okay-ish excuse, but it would be just that -- an excuse. I could possibly agree if both Fumito and Saya's hands and Saya's head didn't fail to be proportionate with the rest of their bodies...

Ohh i think that part of Saya losing her eye, seems to be a reference to Clamp's Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle. Last edited by dvd-rmg; 2012-01-03 at 03:59. Reason: I made a reference mistake. |
