Makai Senki Disgaea

Wtf? Could someone please translate this? I can't read everything there...

Didn't hear of an anime coming up oO
(hope that thread doesn't exist, couldn't find it)

It did exist before the wipe. Yup. Disgaea anime.

Oh, and for anyone that doesn't know, Moon-Phase seems to be listing it as starting in Spring 2006 :D Finally a more concrete date, I've been looking forward to this since it was first announced a while back.

That's good to hear. I too have been waiting for quite a while now. :D

Disgaea
 

The anime is soon coming, I can't read Japanese so I don't exactly know when.
I see January 20th on the main page but I don't know what thats for.

Disgaea Anime site

Trailer

It looks about as good as an anime representation could be, which fills me with Joy.
I can't wait for the time at which my eyes will explode from my head.

Seems like it is broadcasting on January 20th
I used http://www.worldlingo.com/en/product...ranslator.html to translate the site into english =]

I have but one wish. Flonne shoots somebody. I worked very hard to make Flonne a handgun master in that game and I wanna see it animated out, even if it's just in a dream sequence or comedic moment.

20th January? =o That's... sudden.

*celebrates*

*left her in the base panel >.>*

It appears that date refers to the next episode of Makai he Youkosou!!, the little podcast thingy they're doing, rather than the series itself.

Noooooooooo :( Oh well, I thought it was kind of fast.

In other news, Moonphase now has Disgaea as 2006/04 (i.e. April). 3 months to go :D

By the way, judging from the way the picture is stretched, I'm assuming the person didn't add letterboxing to when they uploaded the video.

Flonne with a gun. heh heh I just gave her a bow. Then I spent most of my time in the item world so I could get the bow to give her just as much int as a wand. :heh:

As for the series, I'm looking foward to it. I hope they handle it well. Video games don't really have that great a history of quality anime adaptions...:uhoh: Unfortunately, Disgaea seems like it would be easy to screw up.

Disgaea anime teaser 2.

It seems they modified animation a bit from the first one. Honestly, it looks awesome

超魔王Baal = win!
This series is destined to have it's own subforum, mark my words :D

That preview was pretty cool. Hope the series is just as good. :)

I wanna see Ninja Flonne...............Nin-Nin :heh:



EDIT: Oh yeah, before anyone that hasn't played the game freaks out; The whole thing about Ninja Flonne is not a spoiler from the game, Is just a side joke with no importance whatsoever to the main storyline.

This is so awesome! I just watched the teaser trailer and the art and animation look pretty good, looks like they got a pretty good budget for this one. Damnit now I'm dying to see this!

Please let this be good, please let this be good, please let this be good...

I mean, it's Disgaea. It deserves to be awesome.

On another note...



Very much looking forward to this anime.

EDIT: It's been a while since I've played the game, but a few things I'd love to see included:

Did anyone actually buy this production DVD that was used for the fansub material? If so, is there anything resembling a list of production staff (that is more comprehensive than the one on the site)? If anyone has this and can screen shot it or scan and post it or anything, please do. Currently trying to find anything more to substantiate a 3rd hand comment that Geneon USA is involved in the creation of the show.

Geneon Entertainment JAPAN is involved.

Correct. The only actual mention in the anime was Geneon JAPAN, and I believe this was during the interview. (NOT the one at GameSpot. There was one on the anime dvd) There's been all sorts of confusion in regards to geneon's involvement. I won't be exactly surprised if Geneon brings it over (considering Geneon Japan is working on this).
