(L) No Guns Life Anticipation

[ramlaen]

Rule of cool combined with something very few Japanese have first hand knowledge of.

News Info



Apparently the series main channel will be TBS. It reminds me a bit of Megalo Box.

The character designs look almost DavidPro-ish, and the theme song slaps hard.
But what is this all about? I'm always cautious about original anime because you might end up with a waste of time.

Original anime?

Sorry, I probably got it wrong. But this anime is based on a manga from Ultra Jump magazine.

[Marcus H.]

Oh, I saw Madhouse and immediately assumed that it's anime original.
Or maybe it's the guy with a gun for a head that made me assume so.

I thought some of the characters might not look out of place in JoJo .

No matter how often I come upon this thread, I still read it as No Guns, No Life

Hideo Kojima is a fan of the series: https://natalie.mu/comic/pp/nogunslife01/page/4 <----eng version

──I'm sure they'll be using it (CG) for certain segments, but the show will also be using backgrounds that were created in the Unreal Engine, which is a game development engine. That's probably a first for anime, I'm told.


Kojima - I see. So something that was used in the gaming industry is now being used at anime studios. The Unreal Engine is capable of putting out almost complete video in real time, so it should cut a lot of time off the process. Not too long ago, a lot of places used the Unreal Engine to do tests for video just before it was sent off to final rendering.

Interesting.

Yoshiaki Kawajiri will also be involved in making storyboarding for several episodes of the anime.

This was really cool.

We got Juuzo, a dude wearing a trench coat and having a gun as a head. He makes a living taking care of problems in the city and honestly, I wouldn't mess with someone like him. The fictional world of this show also looks pretty interesting. It looks realistic and there's social problems that needs to be solved, especially someone like Juuzo.

I love the animation quality by Madhouse. Looks fluid and this also has some catchy OST/theme songs.

Very impressed from what I see here!

Was the animation good? I saw people complaining about it in other forums.

And I saw a news on a site that the anime will have two cour, with the second part debuting in April, you confirm?

[Tenzen12]

Wow so we got hardboiled tsundere revolver. I don't think I seen this before

Also Jinzo have to have not just steel head but also lungs, there is no way he wouldn't have cancer otherwise. It was perfect first episode in every possible way (including animation). I might drop it though as I do with many animes that make me instantly pick manga...

[Kanon]

That was a pretty nice first episode. I like Juuzo a lot already.

I'm not sure about the 2 cour part but the animation looks fluid and pretty consistent.

[Applehell]

Enjoyed this a lot as well. MC is fun and love the neo-noir atmosphere and dystopian-like setting.

[Wandering Soul]

I really enjoyed it. Juuzo is so far a nice mature protagonist that also has a softer/comedic side to him.

[thundrakkon]

I was a bit skeptical when I saw the original description for this series, but now I'm a firm believer that this could be one of the best animes this season. It has that old school feeling, and it reminds me a bit of Battle Angel Alita, Appleseed, and Ghost in the Shell in a cyper-punk way. The story seems solid, and the animation is fine. This is definitely a keeper.


It's also nice to know that this will have 12 episodes this season, and with its split cours, it will have another 12 episodes starting in April of 2020. 24 episodes it really nice for series that looks like it will be really, really good.

[serenade_beta]

Huh, that was pretty cool. Came in without any knowledge of what the show is about, but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise.
But it is a manga adaption, so the anime won't finish the story?
