| Not too interested. |
| A mecha by Bones... *thinks back to Eureka 7* Sure, why not? =D |
AlexSadist-sama said: Not too interested. Well, I'm interested! |
| I was interested until I saw digimon in the scan o.O |
| I thought they were making a new season of Digimon again. Looks like Digimon Tamer's Guilmon. Even his evolution person beside it looks like Gallantmon. |
 |
| Eh don't really care for the look, but you never know. |

| Something cool to be placed here in the near future. |
| Darn you mecha-ish Digimon. |

| Weird mecha, not too much to my liking but character design looks promising, and more importantly its Bones. There's potential. |
 |
| Hopefully this will be as awesome as Eureka 7 |
  |
| The mech looks pretty boss to me, I don't see how in the hell it looks like a Digimon. But its neck is pretty looooooooooooooooong. |

| if this will be 2nd Heroman. Do not Want. But if this is like Diebuster or Xam'd, Hell Yeah. |
 |
| brilliant staff working on it + bones = potential cool |
| Bones sucks at adapting big time but original series... why not. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Bones = definitely watch |
| My first thought on the scan: Char The Mecha?..... Pass. |
 |
| Ohh, so the rumor was true after all. Fantastic staff list, Igarashi alone is enough to make me look forward to it. |

| Also, I think it's wearing sunglasses. An anime-original BONES anime is never a bad thing. |

| Bones need to stop messing around with mecha series ... they're never that great at it ... Eureka 7 is overrated -.- and this new mecha look like crap (according to the official site) on a 2nd look... the script writer does have a very nice resume (NGE, RahXephon, etc. for those that are mecha related) ... may have to hold my breath on this one |

| It has been a while since I've seen a new mecha design, I like. Every single mecha show I've seen by bones was great, definitely watching this. |

ringoo4 said: I see galaxy on the centre of that roboto. lol you know what I'm talking about. Screw mechas. Animated GOSICK already, god damn it. Actually BONES has 4 sub-studio to animate different titles,much like Sunrise & Production I.G did to their anime. Studio A:Heroman Studio B:GOSICK (probably) Studio C:Star Driver (cue Igarashi directing this) Studio D:Fullmetal Alchemist:Brotherhood My bet is GOSICK & Star Driver will be aired next Fall season (but the latter maybe aired in Winter if they planned for 24+ episode). Since Igarashi (Director of Ouran) & Enokido(Script-writer of NGE,FLCL&RahXephon) involved,i'm sure this will be good. |
| Go Bones and Character Design!! Hope the plot is good though; it sounds pretty weak. |
 |
| not intrested |
| Oh, "Tact", yeah. At least it's not "Fact" or "Fart". Anyway, looks like Bones are up to more crap. Nice job guys. |
seishi-sama said: Oh, "Tact", yeah. At least it's not "Fact" or "Fart". Actually his name is Takuto.How on earth they spelled as Tact is beyond me. seishi-sama said: fufufu~Anyway, looks like Bones are up to more crap. Nice job guys. |
| Star Driver = Heroman? Pass. |
| Interesting ;D |

Yeah, "Shining Tact" doesn't really make any sense. Sounds like a weapon in Pretty Cure :P I'm sure it's supposed to be Takuto. Not true. It's written with katakana, thus it's supposed to be a non-Japanese name. Yes it would be pronounced as "Takuto", but still romanized as "Tact". |
| Looks quite generic at first sight but it may be an interesting experience. |

seishi-sama said: That's speculation at best. Until they come out with a proper romanised name, I think we'll keep Takuto, since there are plenty of other possibilities, Tacto, Takt, Takto, Tacuto, and probably some others.garfield15 said: Not true. It's written with katakana, thus it's supposed to be a non-Japanese name. Yes it would be pronounced as "Takuto", but still romanized as "Tact".I'm sure it's supposed to be Takuto. And no, katakana does not necessarily mean the name is supposed to be non-Japanese, Haruhi's name is written in katakana and she's as Japanese as they come. Sometimes it's just used to be different or cool. Of course, I may have missed something very obvious but that's ok, this won't be coming out for a while so we have time to fix. |

| I hope its not another heroman. |
kuroshiroi said: And don't even expect the 'official' romanization to be constant. See Real Mayer: リアル (I think) has been transliterated Real, Re-l, or Rill Mayar or Mayer. Then there's those really weird official spellings, mostly R/L relted (Kallen/Karen, see).seishi-sama said: That's speculation at best.

| This... looks... Interesting.... |

JadeMatrix said: Apparently it's リル・メイヤー, and the Re-l romanisation is based on an anime episode which has both Re-l and Real on-screen, go figure.As for Kallen, I like to believe both names are acceptable, Kallen Stadtfeld vs. Kouzuki Karen. I still call her Kallen but... Worst case scenario, we wait for a license ^^ |

| BONES + new original story + mecha? I'm in! ='D |
kaminakun said: Bones need to stop messing around with mecha series ... they're never that great at it ... Eureka 7 is overrated -.- I was going to respond "someone needs to watch RahXephon", and then I checked your list and saw that you gave it a 10. Clearly they're capable of making a mecha show you like, then. (Admittedly, this doesn't look very RahXephon-like, but we've barely seen anything yet.) Anyway, I'd normally say "it's BONES, so it'll obviously be good", but after Heroman I'm not so sure anymore. Still, I'll definitely be checking this out. |

| Seems original, kid + mecha. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
