So any news about this series? I'm craving Abe characters.

ArrowSmith · 2011-05-31, 16:33

I can't wait! Anything ABe does is gold.

BaKaBaKaOtaKu · 2011-06-01, 00:46

i'm waiting for this show since i like SEL.

It seems all Abe seems to be doing is freelance work. Personally, I dig Abe's character designs and I wish there were more opportunities for Abe to have the involvement in anime. I even love it when he writes the script because his work always have that down-to-earth vibe. It doesn't try to be anything but be personal, introspective and quirky. I'm hoping this series have that atmosphere and have 2 cour if it's possible. You can rarely see Abe's style of drawing in anime now.

Yes its stalled by now, this thread should be locked by mods or something.

Well, I'll just express my sadness that we lost what looked like it would be a great show.

Reckoner · 2012-01-29, 02:40

I don't suppose anyone knows anything more about Nakamura's health issues? It's been quite a while.

Serial Experiments Lain Director Ryutaro Nakamura Passes Away

Despera confirmed for vaporware.

Kanon · 2013-07-25, 09:11

This is very sad news. He was one of my favorite director and I was eagerly anticipating Despera. RIP.

omimon · 2013-07-25, 09:16

I'm out..... I'm so out. ಥ_ಥ

Reckoner · 2013-07-25, 10:51

Wow. It seems all my favorite directors are going to die from pancreatic cancer. First it was Satoshi Kon, now this?

This is really, really sad.

Fevvers · 2013-07-27, 12:08

Another great director gone too soon. Sad day for anime indeed.. RIP

Dextro · 2013-07-28, 04:39

And to think that I just found out about this show with the news of it's directors death. It's a real shame, it looked absolutely bloody fantastic in a way that I haven't seen since Lain. Damn it. If there is any kind of god-like entity he/she must be a real bastard to take someone like Director Ryutaro Nakamura away from us so soon.

Stark700 · 2015-01-10, 15:37

OMG. New update! It's getting a new director.

But really, that's great, never thought it'd happen, it's a late christmas miracle.

Now we just need someone to finance satoshi Kon's dream machine

RRW · 2015-01-10, 16:07

the question who can replace the director

Reckoner · 2015-01-10, 16:17

Best anime news I've heard in like 8 years. Being completely serious too. True cyberpunk is returning at last.

Easy. Hamasaki Horishi would be an ideal candidate. Director of Texhnolyze, another Yoshitoshi Abe /chiaki konaka anime, that is also a cyberpunk and in my opinion even better than Serial Experiments Lain.

cleo · 2015-01-10, 18:52

Wow! that's great news indeed. But I keep my expectations in check until we learn more about the staff.

**Solace** · 2015-01-12, 11:18

At first I thought this was a troll bump. Then I read the news! I hope this project finally gets off the ground. It's been too long since we've had a ABe anime project.
