That trailer's region locked. Here's one you can actually view: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1ioyu0

Looks like Watanabe is doing something different again (which is probably going to make all the people who want another Bebop angry again) but it looks pretty cool.

Wonder how many people are gonna start asking for a simuldub out of the gate? (not gonna happen with Aniplex producing this)

Those two burning skyscrapers in the background look a tad familiar, I just can't quite put my finger on where I've seen them before....

Seriously though, I'm on board with this. Music sounds great, character designs look great, and a serious-looking thriller from Watanabe? Yes please.

The entire Aniplex youtube channel has been region locked since... always?

Noitamina stuff almost always gets posted on their official channel albeit sometimes with a delay. Anyhow all the PVs from the presentation are up, including the 10th anniversary one by studio Colorido.

Holy shit that looks cool!Too bad it will only have 11 episodes,but then again that is more than enough of time to develop a good and intriguing story.I do remember Watanabe mentioning his new show airing this fall,seeing how now it is moved to summer I wonder if the schedule will still be okay.

That's the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building. It's pretty iconic of the city and shows up in anime and the like all the time.

NoitaminA has been giving us great anime lately and this looks amazing.

Hopefully this actually SELLS for NoitaminA though. Crying or Very sad

This looks interesting and I like the designs for the characters. I haven't watched the trailer yet, but it still sounds interesting enough from premise alone for me to give it a shot when it airs.

Eden of the East managed to be awesome in 11 episodes (putting the films aside) and from the cast I have no doubt in my mind this is going to be something interesting.

Though I just know people are going to groan about highschoolers being the leads Laughing

That description and tagline make me very, very nervous about this anime - the stuff about pulling a trigger on the world and the framing of these high schoolers' terrorist bomb waking a complacent Japan from its slumber. We know this is the start of some plot to change society. One possibility here is a Death Note kind of story except the lead characters responsible are portrayed significantly less badly than Light Yagami from that title.

I'm not writing it off just yet, but if this were anyone other than Watanabe at the helm...yeah.

Looks awesome. This summer should be interesting with this new series added to the lineup from Noitamina. I know I'll be watching it for sure!
