Extremely interesting. These studio tours are probably my favorite thing on ANN.

Watching the Tiger & Bunny section makes me realize how big of a gamble it was. CG + older protagonist + western-style group of heroes + ads implemented into the outfits. With so many titles only going for the safe choices lately, the high DVD sales of T&B are probably a blessing and hopefully and encouragement for other studios to try something different once in a while.

This tour also reminded me of a Gintama episode making fun of Sunrise with photos of the studio.

Not only DVD sales, but merchandising and fan popularity is through the roof; barely is it halfway through its run, and already has over 1,000 circles in the T&B Tokyo doujin event for July 18th, to illustrate its crazy popularity.

The payoff for this series is turning out to be phenomenal, and is really setting my hopes high for a sequel series with A-team development; there's just so much you can do with this universe. Still, the greatest success of this show has been its unconventional and infinitely likable characters, and if they change that in a sequel series, then its success is likely to plummet.

No, it should be open to everybody. Try again, is all I can say.

Australian reporting in just to say that I can't see anything either Crying or Very sad
Literally all I can see is the heading and the 'discuss in forum' link right under it.

You think you're irritated, I worked on this for MONTHS!

Can someone please tell me, in detail, what is happening exactly? Because I can't reproduce the problem at all.

It just won't load when you try to play it under every setting (720, 480, or 360). I'm not running an ad-blocker, I've had Javascript running (even got an update) and I have the latest flash player installed. I'm running a pretty powerful PC on a great internet connection, so it has to be the website (sorry). I didn't mean to come off rude earlier, I just really want to see what is said about Gundam UC.

Has this site ever talked about making a Youtube channel for those that aren't fortunate enough to stream the videos directly from the site?
