"ATTACK ON TITAN" - Man-Eating Giants Invade Japan!

[MekaGojira3k]

Awesome, and its got Production I.G. behind it which explain how good it looks.

[Gargantuan Gargantua]

Holy "OH GODZILLA! WHAT TERRIBLE LANGUAGE!" that looks good. Spot on from the Manga too. Pacific Rim and this. What a good day!

First Episode is up. Don't know how long until it gets pulled.
I am reading the Manga's now (saving some of them for a rainy day).

I gotta say, I am a tad bit disappointed in the animation consistency. For a Production IG anime, there sure were a lot of still scenes and bizarre wooshing crap flying by the side of a scene. My guess is this anime series might of had a short production side. However it LOOKS like the scenes with the Giants will be amazing. We will see, I am a picky a-hole when it comes to animation.

I do like the way they handled Eren's mothers death. It was a lot more artistically done and not so cut and dry like the manga.

The live-action film adaption now has a new director and starts filming this year! You'll never guess who's directing!:

Awesome news!

[MekaGojira3k]

I've been super excited for this already, but having Higuchi attached is even better.

[Hybrid Gojira]

Awesome.

I have not read the manga but am a fan of the anime..and of course the Director news is fantastic.

[kiryugoji04]

I didn't really care before but knowing now that Higuchi is attached?



Given his and Anno's recent promotional blitz for the tokusatsu industry and how annoyed he apparently was with Pacific Rim's CG-laden approach to giant monsters, hopefully Higuchi will stick to his guns and give us a largely practical kaiju film. I'll be sorely disappointed if not.

[MouthForWar]

After seeing some of the awful CG in Lorelei and Sinking of Japan, Higuchi really has no place to talk smack about Pacific Rim's CG.

Anyway, I just hope this is better than his previous directorial efforts. I like Higuchi a lot, but he hasn't shown himself to be a very good director. His films suck... That being said, I really hope he pulls through on this one cuz done well it could be flat out amazing.

[angilas]

When it comes to spfx Higuchi is the man...at least when he can focus on spfx like on the Gamera trilogy (and even his underlings work for GMK was pretty good). Though the writers for the fim have me a bit worried with films not living up to their manga counterparts in 20CB, Gantz, and from what I hear (though I missed the last screening in Japan for Battle of the Gods) DBZ [though it wasnt live action]. Still waiting for season 2 to return to the small screen.

I saw the trailer this morning.

I'd like to see more obviously to see if Higuchi pulled off the semi-impossible feat of making special effects that are scary. I knew the only way to do it would be with real actors not CGI and from what I understand he has gone that route.

I have to give him a ton of credit if he pulls it off.
