Japanese people are very tradition and the reason why i say their culture is very close to gajin is because for example xbox 360 which is an american product did not sold well. playstation 4 which is Japanese -Chinese product sold well here
we Amerindian aren't soo close culture mostly because usa is filled with asian and white and even Africans
in japan their mostly asian and some white people that why all people in anime look Asian but some look white like naruto from naruto

Looks cool. Anyone who's read the manga have thoughts to share?

Its basically about a squad of 3 girls (IIRC they are also called "coppelia") who go around rescuing folks and taking requests for those who are unable to move around in radiation. There is also some action which shows off Naruse and co.'s badassery, there is one "FUCK YEAH!" scene in particular that I am looking forward to seeing animated. I'm sure manga readers know which one I'm talking about.

In once sentence: A cool action/Sci-fi manga with a little fanservice thrown in for fun.

you seem smart too bad your wrong and I'm right
Blanket statement without argument does not do anything to help you look convincing and only make you look boneheaded and, yes, trolling. And the broken English in your next post does not help you at all - Even if XBox not selling in Japan shows that Japan is more closed to the west, so what? We have already past the stage of whether Japan is more closed, because I already said that Japan being more closed is not the reason to explain why anime is set mostly in Japan (because by the same logic since American movies are set mostly in America then American culture is closed?)
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Kill la Kill is an unknown but being an original carries quite a bit of risk - it can be big hit and it can also become big bomb. As for Magi 2 given the precipitous drop in sales for Magi's later BD/DVD volumes I will definitely take it away from any consideration of the top anime in fall season.

Does the story or characters have any depth or is it really just action + fanservice? I've been kind of looking for something with this sort of premise but was hoping for a little more than what you just described...

I just finished the first volume and it is very seinen. There's tons of scientific/pseudo-scientific jargon and wordy reflections. The plot and characters are decently interesting. There is action, but it's still primarily drama. Excellently drawn post-apocalyptic landscapes, which hopefully the anime does a good job of depicting. Not a hint of fan-service (the girls' clothes are fully intact, lol), so I'm assuming that isn't a major player.

Also, more cast are announced, so what we know now are:

Naruse Ibara: Tomatsu Haruka
Nomura Taeko: Akesaka Satomi
Fukasaku Aoi: Hanazawa Kana

Kurosawa Haruto: Suzumura Kenichi
Ozu Kanon: Horie Yui
Ozu Shion: Sakamoto Maaya

So we have a seiyuu couple voice-acting in the same show.. Interesting...

I think it might have been at a licensing meeting. You can hear English speakers in the background. The monitor is small so it can't be at an anime convention but rather at a private meeting.

The anime has already been in post-production in back in 2011 so the appearance of English subtitles is not surprising.

Actually that would make it something really to be concerned. This means some people, presumably westerners, who were in business licensing the anime, watched this private viewing but they also filmed it and then proceeded to leak the footage to the internet. What kind of business people are they? Where is their professionalism regarding handling of copyrighted material?

Just because Westerners were present doesn't mean they were the ones filming. Besides, I wouldn't be surprised if some of these leaks are intentional. It builds hype and people love the word "leaked" because it gives it an "exclusive" and elicit air. I'm not saying this was done intentionally but you never know these days.

OK, just give it a thought, shall we? If it is indeed a licencing meeting, and there are English speakers in the background, isn't it most likely that it is about a licencing deal for some English-speaking countries? And it is very unlikely that the Japanese who represent the side which owns the contents would film the contents themselves. So who filmed the contents besides the westerners?

You think I did not think about that?? But that is pretty bullshit because copyright owners never would want contents "leaked" in such crappy video quality. To them such leaks would not do their well crafted works justice. If they wanted to leak something to elicit interests, rough design sketches or screen cuts would have been so much better.
