This seems to have slipped under the radar... Yasuhiro Yoshiura of Time of Eve fame is back with a new film project to be released sometime during 2012. Here's an ANN article, and here's the official Web site.

That world is beyond anything we ever imagined.

The tunnels run everywhere in this underground world. But even in these narrow, dark spaces, where they must cover themselves in protective clothing, people lead bright and happy, if humble, lives.

The princess of the underground villages, Patema, is consumed with thoughts of a world she hasn't yet seen, and today she's gone exploring through the tunnels once again. She's been particularly interested in one place, the "danger zone" to which entry is forbidden by village code. Fantastic scenery stretches across this wide-open space that no one else has seen. Mayor Ji may get mad at her for going there, but she can't hold back her curiosity.

As she stands looking into the danger zone, just like she always has, she encounters something unexpected. After all, nobody told her what exactly was "dangerous" about this place.

When she is touched by this hidden secret, our story begins...

Hmm ... looks interesting....

Looking at the ANN article there is an addition that the story will be a "boy meets girl" but that it will also be very strange.

Kismet-chan · 2012-02-17, 23:51

Sounds interesting, and the tiny bit of art there is looks very solid. Will keep this on my radar.

Haak · 2012-02-18, 10:27

Reminds me of Pale Cocoon but looks to go in a different direction. I'm definitely interested.

MeoTwister5 · 2012-02-18, 11:22

Yeah my first impression was that he was doing a different version of his Pale Cocoon.

Kakkou · 2012-02-24, 12:03

Aaaand we have a trailer!

vaden · 2012-02-24, 15:47

To clarify, this is actually a PV for a short prologue called "Beginning of the Day" that's getting released on Nico Nico and GyaO! over the weekend. It does show a lot of the setting and animation, though. Thumbs up from me.

When I saw this, I thought that the Pale Coccon colony had forgotten that they were on the moon.

RRW · 2012-02-25, 11:58

interesting. time of eve is good but kinda boring IMOi will probably watch this

Kakkou · 2012-02-26, 04:59

First episode of Beginning of the Day has begun streaming. It's only about 6mins long, so not much was revealed that isn't in the synopsis, though it is hinted that the reason Patema isn't allowed near the danger zone

Spoiler for prologue ep1:

The production is certainly good looking. We have the director's usual active camera moving here and there and switching to first person POV. Voices are okay.

vaden · 2012-03-16, 02:32

"Beginning of the Day" episode 2 is scheduled to begin streaming on March 25, a little over a week from now.

vaden · 2012-03-26, 21:33

And episode 2 is out.

Spoiler for ep2:

It is. Those are previews

ars89 · 2012-05-01, 16:57

saw the 2 beginning of the day eps, it definitely is intriguing. Obviously her guardians are keeping something important from her. That's quite a fall though. Has the release date been fixed yet?

Kakkou · 2012-05-24, 10:28

Beginning of the Day PV 2nd version focusing on the other protagonist, Eiji, is up!

RRW · 2012-05-26, 13:44

interesting to see how will this 2 world clash

vaden · 2012-06-20, 20:11

"Beginning of the Day" episode 3 is scheduled to begin streaming this weekend.

There's also mention of someone who probably was part of their village. I'm assuming that's the boy she will encounter later. The production is certainly good looking. We have the director's usual active camera moving here and there and switching to first person POV. Voices are okay.

Spoiler for ep2: From what I can gather, it looks like we have two different worlds: Patema's sakasama (upside-down) world, and the surface world that we all know and love where our scheming royal and grassy hill boy reside. Patema used to know someone who journeyed to the surface world, but he left on an expedition and never returned, leaving only the photo that falls up and a few other trinkets as a keepsake. I think the word Patema and the cloaked man used to refer to each other was koumori ningen, or "bat person". Someone feel free to correct me on this if I'm wrong.
