there's just no pleasing some people.
what they said is true though
This short animation was awesome. It was surreal with the bunnies and camels but rendered quite realistically. Im not sure if it was meant to be as hilarious as it ended up being.
What do you mean real?
Real as in why is this not a real piece of merchandise that I can buy.
Well I came across the page by complete accident. Here's the person's blog post with more photos:

Unfortunately, I don't recall seeing one in the OP so
Robot design looks gorgeous.
Looks like something similar to 'Spanish Fridays' wasn't going to take-off in here... right?
If 7Th hasn't responded, I'll try.
He only acted as animation character designer on those projects, as far as I know. Since he became a GAiNAX 'protégé' early on his career and after a bigger role, along with many "youngsters" of the studio, on Aim for the Top 2! Diebuster, his real breakthrough from key-animator related posts was as a close associate of Mr. Imaishi on Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann. Precious first original hit from GORIPON, because later he adapted the conceptual character designs from Mr. Yoshinari on P&SwG and the previous designs made for the games by Mr. Kuboota on THE IDOLM@STER.
There have been conjectures and discussions (for example, in here between 7Th and duckroll) that precisely mentioned his possible involvement in MAGI (マギ
as character designer, but it doesn't seems that he is.The noitaminA's TV block related rumors from time ago continue to be spot-on (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=36493597&postcount=3362)! I hope there will still be a continuous source of early and juicy information.

Moyashimon Returns 1
Hmm, I can't say I'm a fan of the changed art style but I didn't really notice it all that much at times. Oh well, it's more Moyashimon so I can't really complain. The new OP sucks but the ED's pretty good even if it isn't as great and quirky as the first one was.

It wasn't easy, but I just can't convince myself to skip an episode.
Actually, Nishgori was been in Gainax longer than that. He even directed and storyboarded the OP of KonoMini.

Instead of catching up on E7AO (it's coming up next), I decided to tackle this, since it's over tomorrow. I expected more to be honest, not more in terms of quality, but in terms of fun definitely. It's not bad, but it definitely takes itself more seriously than it should. I expected more idol vs. mecha battles and quirky jokes but got too much drama. Oh well, at least the backgrounds are nice, I think the entire setting looks great actually.

I'm guessing that it probably bombed, despite being somewhat progressive about their release schedule.
Yeah, that is right. It figures on his '作画@wiki' page (http://www18.atwiki.jp/sakuga/pages/967.html).
But I didn't say he wasn't at GAiNAX before that, I probably should have said "Since he became a GAiNAX 'protégé' early on his career and later after a bigger role...". The "bigger" implied something more important compared to his previous roles also at GAiNAX.
Might be. Wikipedia has it listed as 12 episodes planned but it seems like the gimmick would get old after a while even if it did maintain the quality of the first episode.
They're mixing up the visuals too. There was a quick sequence focusing on Lan in ep 14 in the ED.

I'm assuming that doing decent looking CG OVAs is a pretty expensive endeavour, so they probably cut their loses. Knowing nothing beyond the fact that the original was set in Vietnam, it could have been an interesting war anthology if it was grungy like Generation Kill or something like that.
Talking about those GAiNAX "youngsters" earlier and seeing Mr. Kubota on the staff for ROBOTICS;NOTES reminds me of the situation in which the studio was and it is right now; exporting such immense talent while waiting for the next ones to come. Look at this article that includes interviews with those GAiNAX young rising stars at that time (http://www.style.fm/log/01_talk/gaina01.html, http://www.style.fm/log/01_talk/gaina02.html and http://www.style.fm/log/01_talk/gaina03.html), on 2003... they are all everywhere else now except for Mr. Saeki!
Will we see in the future more of those Tatsurō Kawano, Kuga Moeka and more promising people they are teaching? I hope so, for the good going of the studio's well earned reputation.

Lord (El Cantare) knows I'll need some here and there!
Reposting /XX/'s news share for a new page.
Thanks, Ultimadrago! Although more than news that can be better called as 'exposing again the sad situation of GAiNAX'.
We will just have to keep it to ourselves, but this oppression will not stop us!

Okay, so Time Jam 22 just did the old science fiction thing of
.
This really is a show after my heart. Although I suppose my nostalgia for simple science fiction will die off soon enough after I watch the TNG S1 episodes in a week or so. lol
travelling back in time to meet an old famous author and inspire their stories

Twilight of the Dark Master
Here's another blast from the past I'd evidently watched but forgotten. 1997 OVA adaptation of a manga of the same named directed by Akiyuki Shinbo, it's an interesting little piece. The story starts off with a young couple together in privacy. Since this is anime, of course the guy turns into a demon and rips her arm off before running off. She recovers, receives a prosthesis, but still bears mental scars and, by chance, is introduced to a man, Tsunami Shijo, that not only believes her story but is willing to hunt the demon down for her. There's more nonsense about Tsunami's past and the drug research resulting in a person turning into a demon that I didn't find particularly engaging.
The highlights of this OVA end up being the fast forceful action with nice effects which, in turn, is thankfully used sparingly which gives the few bits we do get that much more weight. The other is the backdrop of Neo Shinjuku. This is set in 2089 so there's this wonderful cyberpunk future feel to everything about it which is particularly highlighted in the introduction to the Crystal Box sex club scene. Sensual audio and graphic stills present it as a place to truly indulge one's senses.

As I said, I really enjoyed the world. Thought the cityscape backgrounds were pretty good as well.
Stylish action shot just because.
You have quite the nice tail.
I want to get back to this but I was waiting for the comics to arrive. I think they're lost in the mail... forever.

noticeable animation dip. Wonder what happens after they finish up all the cast.
