That is some impressive looking CGI animation. Here's hoping this is more of a success then Shin Mazinger.

Awesome. I can accept CGI mecha when they're integrated well with the 2D, and they definitely seem to be doing that!

I'm liking how the trailer looks, can't wait to see this if not in theaters in the US then on DVD/BD

Finally, a sequel to the series I get into. The other ones had such weird art styles since the original batch of tv/movies came out in 70/80s.

This looks like it will be excellent film. I just hope it appeals to more than long time fans though.

Technically speaking there IS already a tentative release for Europe, at least in Italy it's expected to be released this October, as this poster shows:

I can't accept this CGI mech's in anime, every time I see a CG mech, it seems perverted to me. My personal rule to make good mech anime is, the mech has to be 2d animated, second it has to take place in a sci fi setting or cyber punk setting, and this movie did the first rule wrong.
