Eden of the East generic discussion

[keikakudoori]

I watched the first ep the other day. It's on my watching list now.

[Fishin]

Has a lot of potential, I'll definitely be keeping up with it.

Mmmh, this guy could be actually the Morita-san from Honey and Clover.

In this series, Morita-san is absend for a while(kinda long time) and then comes back with a lot money, but nobody knows, how and where he earns it.

And for those, who have seen Honey and Clover: Do you remember, how Morita-san´s room looks like?

where did he get his cash from?....err, uhh, maybe its because of his "space titanic" movies,

& the hacking of morita's "super computer" part was just a parody joke.....

i still don't get it on why people starting to nickname this series's title, "Eden of the p***s"

.......

It's nearly a week since the first episode aired. Let's let the Morita comparisons rest.

Likely having to do with the showing on one's 'Johnny'. I haven't watched H&C yet so the comparisons are going over my head. Could care less even if I had.

Im just wondering but the OP song, is it kinda famous or something?

Realy not sure but today was that song on the radio, german radio channel, Einslive.

Does someone know more about it?

It's by the British band Oasis. I'm sure you've heard of them.

Thanks for the info.

It is called "Falling Down" and was on an album released in October 2008, called "Dig Out Your Soul." It was released as a single on March 9 of this year, so that is probably why it was on German radio.

[SageGaiGar]

There's a video for it on a couple sites.

[Elvanvitar]

Falling Down is a great song

[DidCart]

This series has a good plot and great art (well draw scenario).
It's on my list.

[Kaoru Chujo]

I've done a characters and seiyuus page for this show.

It shows pics of the characters and their seiyuus, with info about the seiyuu.

It also includes info about the characters, including several new characters that will probably show up in ep2. There is some slightly spoilerish info that we will probably learn in the next couple of eps. But the new info is very interesting.

Spoiler for info from ep2?:

There are several characters from Saki's college, including people involved in a club called "Higashi no Eden" ("Eastern Eden" is my preferred translation) that has a mobile-phone site. And the person she mentioned in ep1 might call her if she had her mobile on is a boy her age who has has an unrequited crush on her since high school. There also also more selecao-numbered people.

The Koharubi sub that has shown up gives a whole different spin on Juiz's words about a "savior." It translates them as being something like, "Don't try to be a savior," or "Don't overdo it." I'm not sure which version is most accurate, but I like that idea, and I do like some other things they've done in their translation.

Yay! More characters 8D ( nice work too )

And for one episode, there sure is alot of speculation arising in this thread...and I like it. Makes the show seem more interesting and fun. Though waiting for the second episode is killing me.

At least this thread keeps my mind occupied from reading everyone's share of thoughts and theories ^__^

[Kaoru Chujo]

Here is the info given on the official site about episode two, which airs in less than 48 hours (thanks for the correction: I thought it was Wednesday already, lol):

Spoiler for ep2 preview:

Saki and "naked guy Takizawa" arrive back in japan. The airport is in turmoil because of the missile strike [they arrive at Haneda airport, not Narita]. Takizawa leaves the airport with only his mobile phone -- which has access to ¥8 billion (US$80 million) in it. A detective has the same phone, and uses it to track Akira. But the detective's phone only has ¥7000 ($70) in it.

The NicoNico page with the radio broadcast refers to Akira as "the Naked Prince." I like it. There's also a page with an mp3 version of the radio show, which is 48 minutes long. New episodes will appear every two weeks. Although Hayamin is only 17 and Kimura is 24, he has no experience as a radio host, whereas she does. So he refers to her as "Hayami Onee-san."

Less than 24 hours? o_O I thought this aired Thursdays at 24:45... in other words about 40 hours from now (just checked, current JST is 7:49 AM on Wednesday).

[ChocaPik]

Yes in Japan, so it depends were you live to know when it really air in your time.

[Starry Dust]

It airs/appears Friday according to my time :'D
At least it gives my weekends a good head start, ha ha.

Well, yeah, that's why I checked it against the current JST. It's because Kaoru said that the next episode would air in less than 24 hours...
