Cover of Anime Busience magazine, Volume 14, April 2018 featuring Yasuomi Umetsu's take on Noa Izumi from "Patlabor". The title "Busience" is apparently a portmanteau of business and science according to the magazine's publisher, Genco, who proclaimed it as a "Animation Business and Science Magazine". The above issue was the magazine's last published issue to date.

I wanna give a quick shout out to the upcoming anime Virgin Punk

Very special for being the return of Director Umetsu Yasuomi who in charge of Kite and Mezzo Forte.

Both famous for their hardcore 90's anime pulp feel aaaaaaand the fact that they both have hardcore sex scenes.

Allegedly the only reason both of them (or at least Mezzo Forte) even got made was because the only people who would take his pitch were companies in the hentai biz, so he had to add those scenes in. It might actually be true in Mezzo Forte's case as those scenes as far as I know have no plot significance, hell, one of them was just a damn dream.

Anyways for someone who possibly hasn't directed in nearly 30 years he seems to have not missed a step

There's just that particular style where you wouldn't even have to be told who it was to know exactly who made it because if you came up during a certain period of time you would be very familiar. Thanks, Newgrounds.

That man has a clear vision in mind and ain't nobody gonna tell him anything.
