| Setting images Kill la Kill setting: Honnouji and Honnouji Academy -Set in the far-off future; most of the world has been reduced to a wasteland; the location of the action is Honnouji, one of the largest cities remaining in the world. -Honnouji Academy sits at the top of Honnouji, it is a school that holds the power of the Extreme Uniform; the Student Council President, also know as the Steel Queen, controls not only the Academy but also over the city itself. -In Honnouji, power and talent is everything. Those who are talented rule over the powerless, who are forced into miserable slums and have their existance reduced to working for the sake of the powerful. -The lives of the powerless are made worse by the fact that even the slums are ruled by the law of the jungle; the city is extremely wild and filled with desperate people willing to do anything to survive. -The Extreme Uniform is the power to trascend humanity; it enhances the latent talents of the individual and grants her or him super-human abiltiies; its origins are a mystery, but the only one supposed to have the authority to grant them in this world is the Student Council President... -A single transfer student armed with a half-scissor sword and an Extreme Uniform of unknown origins crosses the gates of Honnouji; thus begins the burning story of Matoi Ryuuko. |

The setting sounds pretty awesome. |
Atemues said: Trigger staff having a talk for Kill la Kill on USP’s stream for Wonfest 2013. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm21467104 Translated info by Sushiobunny - http://sushiobunny.tumblr.com/post/56728312569/otsuka-did-a-short-hype-talk-for-kill-la-kill-on Otsuka did a short hype talk for Kill la Kill on USP’s stream for Wonfest 2013. He mentioned the key points people should look forward to in Trigger’s upcoming work: -"Script": Kill la Kill feels like the anime-version of a Gekidan Shinkansen play Nakashima’s script is very ambitious and the staff constantly wondered “is doing this fine?" but they didn’t back down because they wanted the work to be as interesting as possible; Otsuka “feels like a movie". As for the VA cast: “it won’t lose to Gurren-Lagann’s" but Otsuka felt sad to announce that “Hideaki Anno isn’t voice acting in KLK". -"Direction and Storyboard": The production staff won’t lose to the ambitous script; Otsuka has a lot of faith in Imaishi and his team’s storyboards/direction. -"Sakuga: Animation and Drawing": they want the show to have a lot of visual personality and a hand-drawn, human-look; Sushio and the rest of the animation staff is working as hard as possible. As for LWA 2, they won’t start working on it until production on KLK is over. When production on LWA’s first episode ended 6 months ago, Yoshinari and his team started working on KLK and since they don’t want to sacrifice quality for either work they will all be working only on KLK until it ends. as if we needed any more confirmation that this is going to be anime of the season. |

| The The girl with the katana looks tight. Hyped for this series and I hope it's good considering the amount of effort and great animation I'm seeing. Hope those characters are great also. |
Atemues said: As for the VA cast: “it won’t lose to Gurren-Lagann’s" Good, I'm expecting some big name seiyuus, some newcommers wouldn't hurt either. Atemues said: -"Sakuga: Animation and Drawing": they want the show to have a lot of visual personality and a hand-drawn, human-look; Sushio and the rest of the animation staff is working as hard as possible. Can't wait for those fight sequences. Atemues said: As for LWA 2, they won’t start working on it until production on KLK is over.

Well that's good they aren't splitting the workload and are going to give each show the undivided attention it deserves. Thanks for the info Atemues! |

| Seiyuu for the two main characters revealed: Matoi Ryuuko - Koshimizu Ami (Kallen in Code Geass, Holo in Spice and wolf) Can we expect FukuJun now? Kiryuuin Satsuki - Yuzuki Ryoka (Arcueid in Carnival Phantasm, Ino in Naruto) http://polyphonicar2010.blog51.fc2.com/blog-entry-14651.html |

Also, another staff names revealed: Assistant Director: Akira Amemiya Set Designer: You Yoshinari Art Director: Koyama Shigeto Creative Supervisor: Hiromi Wakabayashi And new Kill La Kill scans from NewType: Stylish women glimmer in this world, just as stars twinkle in the night sky. Beautiful women, sexy women, moe women. But that doesn’t mean just anyone can. Love isn’t everyone’s theme. What you’re striving for. What your withered heart is longing for. An extreme passion that clenches your heart. A sentiment carried by only ONE person in the world. A determination singularly unique in this world. Her eyes are sharp, her words are daggers. Chaos and paradigm roil where she treads. Matoi Ryuuko, a woman who brings storms. If it’s her, she can do it. The wind is blowing. It’s a cold wind. It ruffles the girl’s hair, and brings forth visions of a radically different future. It’s the calm before the upcoming storm. -> http://sushiobunny.tumblr.com/post/57779566687/stylish-women-glimmer-in-this-world-just-as-stars I wish we had more Satsuki profile pics. =/ But I'm glad to see the voice artists finally being revealed. Now we have to wait for the 4 Kings' VAs. :) As for the VAs for Ryuuko and Satsuki - I guess they're very fitting. I think Satsuki's voice will sound more like Oriana Thomson from "To Aru Majutsu No Index II", but more serious and definitely not that seductive. |
| Man I just love that quote about hot blooded women and burning passion. I didn't need any more convincing that I'm going to love this show, but that's a nice treat to read. Only 6 more weeks and anime will return together with the oath sworn through courage. Also is it me or does that one guy in the 2nd promo scan bottom middle look like the spitting image of a younger Dozle Zabi from Mobile Suit Gundam. Gotta be a reference. |

If it’s her, she can do it. Gaaaah please stop trying to make me hype more than I already am dammit. Also http://www.kill-la-kill.jp/character/ Character concept art colored in and another character added besides the fabulous guy mentioned above.  |

Atemues said: The 2 new characters look intriguing. Hope we'll get some translated info for them soon. Mako (bowlcut girl): part of the loser class, she is Ryuuko's classmate. She is a quirky, unpredictable girl. She fell for Ryuuko when they meet and instantly forced herself on her, calling herself "Ryuuko's new best friend". Aikurou (bishounen) is called a mystery man with a searing gaze. Will he be an ally to Ryuuko, or...? It seems he holds some kind of secret relating to Ryuuko's past. |

| They kinda remind me of Wakaba and Akio from Utena which would make Ryuuko someone like Utena. |

| Ahh, I see. That's probably what they meant. I just want to see some animation. Even 5-10 seconds worth. |

| I wonder if its gonna be awesome? XD |
Atemues said: The full album with pics from the Kill La Kill Starter Book http://imgur.com/a/uuxlD Thanks to - http://cammadanar.tumblr.com/ These pictures give us a pretty good insight on the character's personalities/roles: Ryuuko - Hotblooded/passionate/friendly(?) Satsuki - Is serious when she needs to be but also has a sadistic side Mako - Ryuuko fangirl (most likely offers residence to her) Yamauzu - Full of himself, most likely a playboy (I'd be extremely surprised if he doesn't hit on any of the female cast members) Nonon - Playful and probably sadistic as well Ira - Serious macho man Hoka - Cunning genius These are just my assumptions though. And from what I hear we still have more characters to go! Atemues said: This freaking picture man, I need the anime now! |

| ^ This too http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=556111&pages=3&show=40#msg24386319 Basically the new student, the ruthless student council president, the 4 core members of the student council, a naive looking girl who befriends the new student and a guy who seems to know a lot of things including the past of the new student. |
| 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. |
| I'm listening to the Gurren Lagann OST and crying tears of Kill la Kill hype. |
LoneWolf said: @Josh makes me sad to call myself Canadian. |
  So, it’s pretty much confirmed that Hiroyuki Sawano (Attack on Titan, Sengoku Basara, Ao no Exorcist) will compose the OST for Kill la Kill: a) The official Twitter account for KLK said “we’re announcing the composer for the show in September 10!”; Sawano tweeted last week: “I’m doing a show that be airing in October, the name will be announced in September!” b) The pictures of the recording studio Sawano has been working on look the exact same as the recording studio in KLK’s account picture. c) The guy in KLK’s tweet’s picture is “Mitsunori Aizawa, who engineers all of Sawano’s soundtracks” (journalism courtesy of /a/). https://twitter.com/kill_la_kill/status/368735907995602944 https://twitter.com/sawano_nZk/status/364371784411258881 https://twitter.com/sawano_nZk/status/365073003458994177 Thanks to Sushiobunny - http://sushiobunny.tumblr.com/post/58513754159/so-its-pretty-much-confirmed-that-hiroyuki |
| Oh Me, you guys will probably hate this, let's be serious, everything that is "OMFG, THEY HAVE THE BEST WRITERS AND ANIMATORS EVER" will have a shitload of MAL haters for no apparent reason. You guys are your own nemesis. Anyway, I'll be happy to watch this. |
