Angel Beats had a full page ad on the Yomiuri newspaper today. It’s apparently only for the kantou region. Using the ad cost calculator by Yomiuri, this means the ad cost about 33 million yen (US$356,438) if they paid at full price without discounts.

There has to be something more than just a one season TV anime if they’re spending that kind of money on it. Either that or they really are thinking it’ll be huge hit.

Also without colors it just looks even more like Haruhi.

From the French Bread blog

I’ll be announcing this on the homepage over the next days, but we’ll be recruiting people that can help with art for our next project.

We’ll be looking for anybody that likes 2D fighting games and likes drawing, and plans to go into the industry in the future or is already currently working in the industry. The character size will be pretty big, so it pretty much doesn’t feel like pixel art anymore, but it’s not done and coloured in photoshop either, I’m not sure how to explain it.

We’ll welcome people that are able to draw to a reasonably well and are motivated, even if they don’t have any prior experience. We’re currently aiming to have the game released in the arcades first (as opposed to release as doujin game before hitting arcades). People who are interested please send an email to French Bread ;; Somebody help us! Lets beat that hateful Blazblue together!

Looks like they really are going into high res sprites now!

They’re actually going to sell this as a full priced game at 7,329 yen (US$79). There will be a limited edition version of the game that comes with a nendoroid and will sell for 11,529 yen (US$124).

Soranowoto animation director Akai Toshifumi on the anime’s ending
You guys aren’t going to be moved or be satisfied unless somebody dies. Is there nothing touching about having survived. It’s going to be easy for people making war related anime in the future… Also, if ex-comrades killed each other the anime would be more popular!

Toei has announced that there will be an all-night screening event for Precure on the 3rd of April in commemoration of the new Precure all-stars DX2 movie. The event will start at 17:30 and they’ll watch a bunch of Precure movies and end at 05:00 the next day.

However for this event, no children under the age of 18 are allowed to attend, not even if they have a guardian with them.

I guess they’re not even going to pretend that this is supposed to be a children’s show anymore!
