I admit the trailers we have been getting have been kinda meh in terms of content. I still say ppl should wait and see before they jump off the boat. I'm only speculating here, but there will probably be a third and better one closer to air date.
As far as the artwork, yea, I hate it too. But, if the animation is clean(which it seems to be), I tend to look over odd artwork(like Gankutsuou), so it isn't really a problem for me. |

Yeah, some of the characters do look really "bug-eyed" which I don't care for, and other than the character designs you can't really tell much from the trailer. I have not written it off yet, but on the other hand nothing I have seen so far is causing me to especially look forward to this series, either.

Dont say that until you hear anything by Godspeed You Black Emperor or any instrumental track by Ulver. On-topic: My interest raised a lot. Mostly because I looooooove supernatural genre, Production IG is one of my top 3 favorite animation studio, and then there are the involvement of Masamune Shirow, so here more reasons for my peak in interest for this project. |

Production I.G. and MASAMUNE SHIROW and MULTIPLE PEOPLE FROM LAIN???
Ohmigodohmigodohmigod.... :: runs around his house screaming like a little girl :: Okay, taking deep breaths now... can't believe I didn't notice this show until now. Not too late though, not out for another month. Web site kinda interesting, only trouble is I can't read any of it besides the word for "characters". Would someone who can read Japanese be willing to translate any more interesting tidbits off of there? "Details requested!" I totally agree that there's been a dearth of cyberpunk and occultish stuff lately. Horror doesn't equal spiritual/mystery at all. Looking down my list of what I've liked in the last year, there's been a heavy drift towards comedy. Coil and Mushiuta are the only interesting "serious" shows this season, and sola from last season. And this show looks like it'll be noticeably higher quality than Mushiuta and sola. Coil's great, but it's aimed at a youngish audience. I seriously doubt Ghost Hound will be.

There's a second trailer here (not sure if it's new or old, I haven't seen it before). The website's been updated; ep one is called 'Lucid Dream' and episode two is called 'E.M.D.R Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing', taken from terminology relating to states of consciousness, memory, dream etc...
I like the character designs, they remind me an awful lot of Kamichu! or more recently Gigantic Formula... Last edited by Sonhex; 2007-09-18 at 14:02. |

The name of the eps don't surprise me considering that the backdrop of the anime has to do something with an electronic brain iirc. |

Good gods, I am burning in anticipation just with hearing the words MASAMUNE SHIROW and LAIN'S DIRECTOR. Although I would have liked me some more cyberpunk-ish series, I wouldn't say I'm disappointed when the aforementioned people above are involved. I don't mind the character designs either; it's all about the execution for me.

As some of you may or may not know, Ghost Hound is also going to be adapted into a manga. Here's the magazine's official site, http://www.mag-garden.co.jp/comic-blade/top.html
There's nothing really about the manga yet, but I did manage to scrounge up this pic. |

I was just checking out the forums on the Genjo-Subs website when I noticed that they had translated both the Characters and Keywords section of http://www.ghosthound.tv/
It definitely got me interested: http://genjo-deadlock.net/forums/index.php?showforum=69 Just a small warning: there are minor spoilers concerning the background of the characters, but no plot spoilers. Last edited by Adonimus; 2007-10-01 at 01:32. |
