Director Takashi Miike (Crows Zero, Ichi the Killer, The Great Yokai War) is overseeing Production I.G's first live-action project, the 51-episode Keitai Sōsakan 7


I know he's gone straight lately, but I'm surprised they feel so comfortable with him being involved. Still, it makes me wonder why they don't hire him to direct more mature anime like Gantz. (I hope the Golgo show's next for him.) Anyway, I hope this one's fun, and not some Transformers-like cash-in.

This sounds/looks so stupid. How the hell did they get Oshii involved in this?

It better be a comedy, but I doubt it.

I suppose this counts as one of those "only in Japan" concepts. Laughing
