I hear there's a special press conference tomorrow too, other than the second Q&A.

lolololol I thought I was being sneaky and was hoping he was going to slip up and confirm Sato was working on Dandy.

Wizard Barristers

Concept/Director: Yasuomi Umetsu
Animation Production: ARMS

Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3sIxFTDBMQ

Look like Umetsu doing what Umetsu does e.g. girls, fanservice and action. Now, that's hardly an unexplored niche but at least Umetsu does it with a certain flair. I can't say that I'm wild about his designs though.

I don't think I was supposed to know about Dandy as one of the Japanese staffer's asked how did I know.

lol

Give it a chance, man. The LWA one by hamanasu from his hamanasu chaya (はまなす茶&#23627 circle, that some might remember from a certain 'dōjin' about the Demon Sisters, even appears to have cameos of Madoka, Cure Heart & the Sorceress from Dragon's Crown!

Not recommended for cnet128, though... ;-)

I actually read this one a few days ago

I was about to say, they haven't announced it yet? If they haven't, it's pretty much the worst kept secret ever.

it's happening

 

[Jarmel]

Sato and Keiko confirmed. Ito character design. Director is Natsume. Watanabe is General director. Romain is spaceship design. Okamura is doing theme song.

Also Kimiko Ueno as well. Sato has top billing.

 

[BluWacky]

gotta be the worst kept anime secret.

It's hardly a poorly kept secret. One trademark announcement, and Watanabe himself saying he was working on a space comedy, is all the Internet needed to work it out - that doesn't mean they've been leaking things left right and centre.

Keiko Nobumoto!!!

*commences frothing at the mouth*

 

[BluWacky]

Keiko Nobumoto lives!

I've never heard of Yasuyuki Okamura - does he have any big hit songs? I've Youtubed him and I'm enjoying this very cheesy "Super Girl" single but it's obviously, like, 20 years old.

 

[Articalys]

Unbelievably, it actually doesn't have a North American licensor yet.

 

[Jarmel]

Fuck. January 2014.

[Kurita]

The character design is... underwhelming to say the least.

 

[duckroll]

The main character is Dandy. He has a talking cat and robot. The show starts in Jan 2014 in Japan.

 

[KirbYuuYuu]

Fuck. January 2014.

Fall of Sakuga was a lie afterall.

 

[Pooya]

Is that a penguin robot?

Is Desperate Dan in it?

 

[Shergal]

January? What the hell Watanabe? Didn't you hear you were supposed to feature in the sakuga Fall?

Space Bros 69

My god this fast pacing, is this the same show? It feels like they just skipped through what would be 10s of episodes at their normal pace. Are they trying to wrap this up soon?

 

[Jarmel]

Lol we got Twileks.

The dream is dead.
It will probably have CG spaceships anyway.

“There are similar restaurants to Hooter’s in space.”

There’s going to be new space aliens every week. They already have 100 designs.

The hype train for this is going to be insane.

 

[Dead]

Keiko Nobumoto... Oh my god. About to have a heart attack... ;_;

Why isn't there a thread about this yet?

Trying to decide who's the least laziest amongst us.

 

[Dresden]

Duckroll is putting one up.

 

[KirbYuuYuu]

Why isn't there a thread about this yet?

We're working something out like a bunch of monkeys at a typewriter.

EDIT: Well there you go!

 

[Jarmel]

Aired first PV.

So dandy.
