News for the week.
Just a few items I thought were interesting.
Another version of Grave of the Fireflies to be made.
While most of us will be familiar with the Miyazaki work, there has already been a live action version made for TV. The movie has been beset with problems, such as the death of the original director earlier this year. It’s scheduled for 2008 release.
It’s an incredible, though very sad, story. If you haven’t seen the Studio Ghibli version, you really should. Prepare yourself though, it’s a heartbreakingly sad film.
It’s official, Gunslinger Girl second season on it’s way.
I’m very happy to hear about this. I loved the first season of this show. I saw the manga at the store, but decided to postpone my purchase in favor of something entirely new to me. After hearing about this, I wish I’d gotten it.
If you haven’t seen Gunslinger Girl, do so A.S.A.P.. It’s completely and totally worth it. You will thank me.
Bleach DS game coming this fall.
According to N-Philes, the Nintendo DS game Bleach: The Blade of Fate will be timed to release with the new season of Bleach on Cartoon Network. Sounds pretty cool to me. Check their site, they have video of the game in action. The video of the game reminds me of some really good old school 2d fighters. I can’t wait to try that one out.
