New Tiger & Bunny Anime Project Announced

The official Tiger & Bunny twitter page has updated with an announcement that a new anime project is in the works.

Can y’all believe Chou no Doku Hana no Kusari will be available in English on the Switch next month?! According to Prototype’s twitter post, we can expect a free (according to the tweet) update on the Nintendo eShop that will add English to the Japanese game!

There are a few things to note, however: We all know this was originally a R-18 game but since it’ll be on the Switch, they edited the content to make it slightly less adult. It’s also worth mentioning that it hasn’t been confirmed if the translation for this version will be using the same machine translation from the mobile version that was released in English a few years back. If you check the tweet, you’ll see there’s a few screenshots with English text and the wording doesn’t look too bad but, it’s hard to tell.

Synopsis from VNDB:

Yuriko, a noblewoman in the Taisho Era, has a big party on her birthday. She then discovers her father is trying to find her a rich husband at the party, but she doesn't want to have that fate. Suddenly, some rogues break into her place and start trashing the place. She grabs a wooden sword so she can fight them, but a man saves her...

Now for the cast!!

^Wealthy trader, 28 yrs old, Shiba Junichi cv. Katou Masayuki^

^Heroine’s older brother, 22 yrs old, Nomiya Mizuhito cv. Hirakawa Daisuke^ you already know his route is gonna be effed up XD

^Nomiya family servant, age 25, Majima Yoshiki cv. Kondou Takashi^

^Nomiya family butler, 37 yrs old, Fujita Hitoshi cv. Yasumoto Hiroki^

^Army lieutenant and oldest son of a baron, 24 yrs old, Ozaki Hideo cv. Majima Junji^

I’m super excited for more games with Hirarin being localized! With my backlog, I just got around to playing Pyschedelica of the Ashen Hawk on Steam but, this will be moved up the listed because I can’t wait haha! An interesting thing mentioned on the Japanese website is that the original game on pc was made in 4:3 aspect ration but the Switch version is 16:9. This means you won’t be able to see some parts of the CG’s but you’ll be able to scroll around using the left analog or d-pad to view the entire image.

I did a quick search on ebay for used physical copies of the game and the cheapest I could find at the time of posting this was $90 usd (including shipping)! I’d suggest grabbing a digital copy from the Japanese eShop for just under $40 usd although the digital version will be released worldwide according to Prototype!

Netflix's Live-Action Cowboy Bebop Series Reveals First Photos, Premiere Date

  A release date has finally arrived for Netflix's live-action Cowboy Bebop series along with a batch of first-look photos. The show starring John Cho as Spike Spiegel, Mustafa Shakir as Jet Black, and Daniella Pineda as Faye Valentine is officially set to debut globally on November 19.

  Check out the cast as they appear in the show below.

    Netflix describes Cowboy Bebop:

  COWBOY BEBOP is an action-packed space Western about three bounty hunters, aka “cowboys,” all trying to outrun the past. As different as they are deadly, Spike Spiegel (John Cho), Jet Black (Mustafa Shakir), and Faye Valentine (Daniella Pineda) form a scrappy, snarky crew ready to hunt down the solar system’s most dangerous criminals — for the right price. But they can only kick and quip their way out of so many scuffles before their pasts finally catch up with them.

  Based on the beloved anime series, COWBOY BEBOP is executive produced by André Nemec, Jeff Pinkner, Josh Appelbaum and Scott Rosenberg of Midnight Radio, Marty Adelstein and Becky Clements of Tomorrow Studios, Makoto Asanuma, Shin Sasaki and Masayuki Ozaki of Sunrise Inc., Tim Coddington, Tetsu Fujimura, Michael Katleman, Matthew Weinberg, and Christopher Yost. Nemec serves as showrunner. Original anime series director Shinichirō Watanabe is a consultant on the series, and original composer Yoko Kanno returns for the live-action adaptation. The series also stars Alex Hassell and Elena Satine.

Cowboy Bebop, Elena Satine si aggiunge al cast della serie Netflix

Uno dei registi dietro all’adattamento live action sarà Alex Garcia Lopez.

Netflix ha annunciato che l’attrice Elena Satine (Maggie Donovan in Strange Angel) reciterà nel live action ispirato all’anime cult “Cowboy Bebop” nel ruolo di Julia. È inoltre emerso che i primi due episodi della serie, realizzata assieme a Tomorrow Studios, saranno diretti da Alex Garcia Lopez, regista che ha già partecipato ad altre produzioni della piattaforma come “Daredevil”, “The Punisher” e all’attesa serie di “The Witcher”.

Gli altri membri del cast rivelati finora sono i seguenti:

Spike Spiegel sarà interpretato da John Cho (Hikaru sulu in Star Trek Beyond).

Nei panni di Faye Valentine ci sarà Daniella Pineda (Zia Rodriguez in Jurassic World: Il regno distrutto).

Jet Black avrà invece il volto di Mustafa Shakir (Bushmaster in Luke Cage).

Il ruolo di Vicious è invece stato affidato a Alex Hassell (Translucent in The Boys).

Al momento, non si sa ancora chi interpreterà Radical Ed, visto che il processo di casting è ancora in corso per il personaggio. Il progetto è in lavorazione per un totale di 10 episodi, il primo dei quali scritto da Chris Yost (Thor: The Dark World, Thor: Ragnarok). Un periodo di debutto non è ancora stato specificato per la serie.

Shinichiro Watanabe (Terror in Resonance, Carole & Tuesday), l’ideatore e regista dell’anime originale, sta partecipando in qualità di consulente, assieme ad altri membri di Sunrise che lavorarono alla serie, come Yasuo Miyakawa, Masayuki Ozaki e Shin Sasaki, che invece hanno preso posto fra i produttori esecutivi.

Andre Nemec, Josh Appelbaum, Jeff Pinkner e Scott Rosenberg di Midnight Radio, anche loro produttori, saranno gli showrunner della serie. Altri produttori accreditati sono Marty Adelstein e Becky Clements di Tomorrow Studios,oltre a Tetsu Fujimura e Matthew Weinberg.

Acclamato da critica e pubblico, Cowboy Bebop narra le avventure di una squadra di cacciatori di taglie nell’anno 2071, in un universo sospeso tra passato e futuro. L'ex mafioso Spike, l’ex poliziotto Jet, la sensuale truffatrice Faye e la geniale hacker Ed, tutti con un passato misterioso alle spalle, viaggiano tra i pianeti a bordo del Bebop. Ambientazioni tra il western e il futuristico, citazioni dal mondo cinematografico e musicale, un’alchimia di generi dal noir alla fantascienza, dall’hard boiled alla commedia, dal thriller al pulp, oltre a un’eccezionale colonna sonora, fanno di questa opera un capolavoro dell’animazione degli anni ’90.

La serie originale di 26 episodi, animata da Sunrise nel 1998, è distribuita in Italia da Dynit e disponibile in streaming su VVVVID.
