Fantastic. Nakamura is exactly the kind of talented young director who needs to be given the opportunity to work.

Oh god this is going to be awesome. I loved Kuchu Buranko, and for whatever reason, this has such an Eden of the East feel. SOOOO excited,

Oooh... that's a nice tagline: "C -- the world that will burn the future." And of course it's by former noitaminA staffers, so this goes on my "want to watch" list.

Agreed! Anything noitaminA automatically goes on my "To Watch" list, but since it's staff from shows I've watched and liked, even more so. And yeah, intriguing tagline looks promising!

Well if it's noitaminA I'm going to try it out at least and this sounds pretty cool (although I agree, the promo image gives off an Eden of the East vibe which is a bit odd).

Hmm, excellent. I really enjoyed Trapeze and Mononoke.

Are you by any chance obsessed with Eden of the East?
Oh, sorry, wrong person.

Nah, I'd rather have the Trapeze and Mononoke' craziness than Eden's. Eden of the East is okay, but what's exciting about it is the outcome, while for Mononoke and Trapeze it's the very moment.

Erm, no? Sure I like the show but I don't recall ever going on and on about it outside of the "what are you watching now?" thread. No, the image there simply reminded me of what the early ads for EoE looked like (obviously CGI-ed object on a black background with text which stuck out to me since it's odd to see an add for an animated series without any actual art from the series). Also, the line about the world burning in the future reminded me of how the goal in EoE was to save Japan, honestly it was just a few little things in there that reminded me of it and I wasn't the first one to bring it up in the thread.

Hopeless for liking a good show? Yeah, okay there buddy.

Yeah, buddy. That smiley represents myself laughing at your foolishness for enjoying a show that you consider good.

Some mighty fine trolling you got there. Or some mighty bad taste in shows. Regardless, calling me hopeless wasn't at all neccesary.

Oh, dear. Go learn what friendly joke, sarcasm, and troll mean.
First of all, I was asking about obsession. I've also seen Eden of the West, and I enjoyed it, but I think people are a bit too sensitive whenever anything reminds them of Eden of the East... like, the only thing we know of it so far is the director, block, and promo image.

If this isn't about wacky Japanese wrestlers I'll be greatly disappointed. Razz

There's a lot of potential here of course, just based on the staff and being noitaminA alone, but it's too little info to get super excited over this. I'll reserve my excitement until we get something a little more substantial.

Nothing on noitaminA has disappointed me so far. Let's see if we can keep it up.

The C anime sounds really interesting.

All I said was it reminded me of Eden of the East. The promo image is pretty reminiscent in the sense of it's obscurity much like Eden's was.
