They'd better be clones being made to kill each other for PMCs, or something equally Oshii. Otherwise, I declare anime officially over.

I can envisage the title now: Urusei Yatsura 2-2: Innocent Dreamer.

So is this a hybrid live action animated film?(I read all of it since I keep getting yelled at by other forum users)

"The March 29 filming is seeking 10 female cast members aged 15-25 to play students, and three male cast members aged 25-60 to play teachers."

Oshii is clearly branching out into yuri.

It is early days to be speculating on what this is. Regardless, three scenes are not enough to make a movie, much less a TV series. It should be interesting to see where this goes in the future.

So, Chimera's synopsis definitely sounded like you could describe it as a school fantasy, so I would assume that's what this is.

But that's animated, and this is live-action.

So I guess it's going to be an experimental hybrid or something. I love Oshii
