W....WRRRRRRYYYYYYYY!



Jemand scanlated Katteni Kaizo wieder! Ist wie Zetsubo Sensei, nur so bösartig, dass Shounen Jump es gerüchteweise loswerden wollte.

Darker than Black 2, nun aber echt.

Nett, genug zu verbessern gibts auch noch.
Bleibt abzuwarten, was gezeigt wird. Ich hätte mir ja noch mehr von der "Vergangenheit" gewünscht... aber nicht mal die Ova hat da irgendwas gebracht. (Gott war die lächerlich^^)

Also: Sequel? Prequel? Oder ganz andre Chars? Mal abwarten.

und einige leute vom experiment lain team sind ebenfalls beteiligt. bin mehr als gespannt

Yoshitoshi Abe & Lain Staff’s “Despera” Debuts as Manga

The debut of the upcoming anime project Despera, from the creators of famed psychological thriller Serial Experiments Lain, will be coming in the next issue of Animage as a “graphic novel”, with art by Yoshitoshi ABe and written by Chiaki J. Konaka.


The new project by ABe, Konaka and Ryutaro Nakamura (the three main creators of Lain) was revealed earlier this year during a panel at U.S. anime convention Sakuracon, but the release date of the anime is still set in the indeterminate future, making this manga serialization our first taste of the story.

Details on Despera are scant, but it has already been revealed that the setting will be Tokyo in 1922, set during the tail-end of the Taisho Era, and will feature a 14-year old girl named Ain who has a penchant for building odd mechanical devices, despite her lack of any scientific training.

Konaka writes on his blog that the manga (he refers to it as a グラフィック・ノヴェル / graphic novel) is planned for a one year run, and that a follow-up containing more information is likely planned on the Animage website.

Animage, which incidentally will be celebrating its 31st Anniversary next issue, is of course primarily an anime news magazine ala Newtype, and does not often house manga serializations, although it has serialized titles such as Miyazaki’s Nausicaa in the past.

Thus, its presence in Animage might suggest a more atypical form of serialization compared to most manga, with differences such as shorter page-counts, an unusual amount of colorized pages, or more infrequent publication dates all being things that lie in the realm of possibility, although we will likely need to wait for the next issue of Animage to find out for sure.

In any case, the project looks to be something to keep an eye on, as the trio’s 1998 Lain series is highly regarded as a psychological and philosophical “cyber-horror” story, and fans of ABe’s art, Lain, or darker anime are all likely to be most excited.

Ich bezweifle, dass man nach 11 Jahren qualitativ nochmal an Lain anknöpfnen können wird.
Den selben Fehler hab ich schon bei Tytania begangen.

Viel wichtiger (weil lustiger): Eikichi Onizuka kehrt in GTO Shonan 14 Days zurück, und zwar in der am 10ten erscheinenden Ausgabe vom Shonen Magazine.
Nice Cresta

Lain war u.A. so gut, weil das Projekt auch zum Trollen gemacht wurde.

Erinnert mich daran, dass Abe zumindest einen guten Doujinshi gemacht hat, in dem er Texnolyze mit Vanilla-Coke und Space Adventure Cobra-Anspielungen troll...vielleicht machen sie ja sowas und trollen die Heisei-Ära im Stile von: "Die Showa-Periode ist nicht vorbei! OLOL!"

Norn has announced in their online newsletter that the Norn games that are currently in development cannot be delivered into the hands of their fans without any modifications.

The character settings, situations, and the game title are against regulation, and a lot of problems have popped up.

The developers are trying their best right now to be able to provide a game that the fans want with the minimum amount of modifications.

A lot is happening in the industry right now because of the regulations this time around, but Norn will try their best to make a game that will satisfy their users.

Norn also reports that the various sides are still having negotiations right now, but there is currently a possibility that games featuring non-human heroines (robots, elves, cat girls, vampires etc) may no longer be accepted for sale.

Games featuring Impregnation or having babies may also get the same treatment.

However, Norn staff says that even if something like that happens, they will try their best to do whatever they can to get their games to their fan.

Der Track im Hintergrund hört sich nach Shikata Akiko an. Macht sie Opening, Soundtrack o.ä. für die Serie?

llpalace’s Online shop dejipare (NSFW) which deals in downloadable doujin and downloadable eroge has announced that adult works belonging to the following genres or have any content that have something to do with the keywords will be restricted, as according to the directions from an unnamed regulation body. (most probably EOCS)

• Rape
• Loli
• Gang Rape
• Sexual violence (陵辱)
• Cruel sexual play (鬼畜)
• Reverse rape
• Shoujo
• Forbidden sex (相姦)
• Reverse sexual violence (逆陵辱)
• Forced (強要)
• Group sex (複数プレイ)
• School council (生徒会)
• Bestiality (not catgirls or vampires etc)
• Bondage
• Coercion
• Train groping (車内わいせつ)
• Enjo Kousai (wikipedia link)
• Incest
• Torture
• Bind tightly (緊縛)
• Pregnant
• Rape (強姦) (another way to refer to rape)
• Slave
• Pregnant woman
• Imprisonment
• Impregnation

Aside from the above keywords, words that attempt to make references to the above words such as (JC / JK / U18 / U15 etc) are also included. There may still be more words that will be added to the list.

The list does not only cover written information (including scenario, speech, hidden meanings, circle name, brand name), but images and CG (both art and real life images) are also covered in the new restrictions.

The date that the new restrictions will take effect and exact criteria on how affected media will be judged is still being decided, but will be announced soon.

Also I couldn’t think of a good English equivalent for many of the keywords, so if anybody has better suggestions for some of the keywords it’ll be great.

Sauce for the goose

Im Gegenzug dazu kommt aber die zweite Queen's Blade Season schon im Oktober. \o/

Aber der Bann ist wirklich extrem übertrieben und hirnrissig. xD
