Zombie Land Saga Revenge~ 2nd season confirmed!

nice, I hope they develop the backstory of the prostitute zombi

Japanese figure company MegaHouse has listed two new 1/8 scale figures of Spike Spiegel and Faye Valentine from the Cowboy Bebop anime franchise for release in December 2019. Both figures are inspired by the two's gun action scenes in the story.



Pre-orders for the 16,280 yen items and their 30,800 yen two-figure set are accepted exclusively on Premium Bandai, MegaTrea Shop, AmiAmi, Digitamin, Volks, and Yellow Submarine.

Joshiraku is being licensed by Maiden Japan and will receive official english subs. A very strange decision since this is quite a niche show. I'm quite interested to see how they're going to pull it off given the highly contextual humor and wordplay.

From what I recall, no one wanted to sub the anime when it came out due to how complicated the humor and dialog is. This was back when fansubs were still a thing.

>>33390
GG ended up being the only ones to sub it, and each episode was accompanied by pages full of TL notes. For some the GG-subbed version is an abomination because a lot of the Japanese contextual jokes are replaced entirely with Western-understandable counterparts ("Four heavenly kings" -> "Kanto elite four"). To me the replacements at least made sense in context (which is better than the current state of official subbing [>>/an/33121]), so I didn't generally mind too much though.

It's time for The Rising of the Shield Hero franchise to take the inevitable next step: A stage play adaptation! Stage performances have been announced for next spring, starting with COOL JAPAN PARK OSAKA TT Hall in Osaka in March 2020 before moving over to Tokyo Theater Sun Mall in April.

If you're interested someone ripped the subs from the official version: https://mega.nz/#!EggkxCqY!mclFdnrTCLqrUpNNFwraiTLqHXHerwaNy-8Vj3TNdOo

But honestly I think GG's were fine and are better than the official. For instance, in episode 6 (the "four"s scene) the original dialogue is "Kisetsu wa shunkashūtō". GG's version has "The seasons are spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Four again." Official version has "The beatles had four members. They were pretty popular." And when jokes needed to be rewritten for both the GG version matches the spirit of the original more closely.

Will give the Joshiraku subtitles a look.

Apparently Black Fox was intended to be a tv series that ran into production issues and got salvaged into an anime:

Shouldn't it be Isekai Quintet now?

>>33525
Can't finish a 1 cour tv anime in time? Turn it to a movie! Brillant marketing?

>>33532
Maybe it's just thoughtfulness on the part of the Japanese. They already have a TV Show with a particular name. What if someone else decides to make a different show with the name "Isekai Quintet" but that name was taken?
Also, what if, as the series progresses, the Quintet returns to being a Quartet. What do they call it now?

Great, more uninspired lowest common denominator shows.

>>33730
Too bad for netflix that they don't seem to understand your average person doesn't actually watch anime. "weebs" of today are all secondary and are only interested in meme and emoji derived from anime, they care little for the source material itself.

>>33731
Then all they need to do is fund and present such works.

>>33732
Except they probably wont just fund them.

>>33732
How do you 'fund' meme and emoji?

>>33734
Sorry, I meant they'll fund stuff that's "meme-able" or whatever.

>>33734
Not sure about funding, but it's probably possible to influence social media and make it seem organic. The fact that the phrase "netflix and chill" has entered into current lexicon is certainly evidence of this. I'm not sure how the other poster wanted to apply this to "memes and emoji" in the context of anime, however. I suppose it's possible to create a show that's intentionally manufactured to be "memeable" (á la Neo Yokio), but that alone might not result in sufficient viewership to offset the costs.

>>33736
Anime doesn't cost much at all to make.

How does this make you feel /an/?

>>34128
I don't really have an interest in any of those so it doesn't bother me. Whoever makes it, it's still being made for a western audience in the end but I prefer they produce originals for themself and the west than try to interact too much with the Japanese market. In theory, worst case scenario they make something awful and I just will not watch it, best case scenario they make something watchable. Who knows, maybe making it for a western audience will introduce some novel elements that could be interesting(although I doubt it).

Strangest collaboration ever?

Damn it, it's the anime I'm enjoying the most so far besides Kakushigoto.

>>34269
Me too, I'm irrationally upset that it's happening to anime I like now.

>>34270
So what, not like there aren't also a million and a half other things to watch in the mean time.

>>34271
Sure, it's not a huge inconvenience objectively speaking, but I liked that series.

I'm devastated.

I don't know how many of us have been holding on, for years, just hoping to watch this movie. Now, with thousands dying everyday and more death hunting us at every corner, I thought: 'come what may, I might at least make it to see the very end of Eva; I want nothing more'; but this compromises even that last wish. I guess I do deserve it, but others don't.

>>34275
I've been a fan of Eva for like 20 years and I haven't even watched 3.0, it's like I'm perpetually afraid and I can't get into it.

>>34275
>>34276
is there even the slighhtest chance that its gonna be better than the 2 old endings that we already have?
You are mistaking cashgrab remakes for quality movies.
I m not saying they are THAT bad, but cmon.

>>34276
3.00 is when Rebuild actually started to shine (a bit).

>>34277
It's more about getting full closure, at this point.

>>34278
You're assuming some other studio wont make a remake or spin-off or something after this.

>>34278
>It's more about getting full closure
Fair enough
personally i havent seen them yet for that reason
I ll give them a go when the last one comes out but i dont have high hopes.

The third season of Non Non Biyori has finally been given an official date, scheduled to air on Winter/January 2021. It will be titled Non Non Biyori Non-stop. With Gochiusa also scheduled to air on Fall 2020, there is a lot to look forward to at the end of the year.

>>34376
Coincidentally I just started the first season one week ago, somehow I missed this series while I'm really into SOL, kinda weird.
It makes me think about how the japanese country must be, it seems like it's few people, probably living from the government and having shops, vending machines or good roads even in the middle of nowhere. Thanks to google maps I also know there's really decadent places but there's something beautiful about it too.

Yeah, he's been hospitalized for his own burns.

Ahiru no Sora drama over anime adaption of the basketball anime

>Ahiru no Sora drama over anime adaption of the basketball anime
The 'eye tracings' greatly annoyed me, but I read the (TL'd, of course) manga up to a point, and the adaption doesn't seem all that different. The biggest thing that changed, for me, is that the hoodlums were more brutal to the MC in the beginning. The fact that this anime can be a glorified powerpoint presentation for a good chunk of a game is more irritating. But then again, perhaps I haven't read enough of the source material.
