hmm

sounds corny but it might be a quick and fun one to watch. maybe there is a sub group out there whos done this one.

The subbed episode is being streamed on the jumpland site:

http://www.jumpland.com/animetour/lb/index_en.html

you have to install their browser and then open the .sva file with it =)

and yeah, nice art, corny story, just like the manga =P

Lol, the subs are hilarious when they spell Gauche as "goos." rofl. I never like 3D mushi, but Fukiyama Jun as Gauche is <3333. Lag's voice is quite girly. No wonder the people at the beginning thought he was a girl (or that could just be one of the other silly parts of the subs).

The funny thing is that it even says on the site's own character profiles that Lag is a boy.

because he IS a boy o_o

Anyway.. Some Animes could just be so great if there wouldn't be any CG. In Letter Bee it's misplaced as hell, that's the only thing what I didn't like about this special.
The begin could be a little bit confusing for those who didn't read the manga, since they seem to started at the second volume. but at least they brought in some 'important' fragments of the first volume (parts of the story about lag and Goosh... err, Gauche).
++ Niches clothes are way too... pink/rose/whatever, wtf 0__o'

Blah.. Overall it's 8/10, the soundtrack sounds very good imo, this dreaming-like athmosphere is the same as in the manga, VA roles aren't bad, and... I hope there will be no CG in the TV series ~

Will there indeed be a TV-series? :O

This series needs an anime series and I can smell one coming about Fall 2009. The manga is great and beautiful, this one-episode OVA JUMP Special was done very well. I want to give this an 9/10....but I think 8/10 is better judgement because the art wasn't as great as the manga. ;)

WAIT........NEWS: -

"A television anime series was subsequently hinted to start airing in 2009, according to comments made on TV by Shueisha's Jump Square magazine editor-in-chief, Masahiko Ibaragi."

This was good, never read the manga, and I knew that the lead was a boy, why did it say a girl, sort of a reverse J-decker was my guess.

This was indeed pretty good, 7/10. I will be looking forward to the tv series.

Seconded!

wow that was beautiful.

After several weeks, I have finally watched it. The animation is good, but the story seems to be lacking.. 2 kids delivering letters with the help of a pet cat or..



....

It ended?

There should be a tv series focusing on the journeys of Gauche Suede, the original owner of that Cordial Gun, a weapon that fires one's own soul fragments at robotic monsters. (^_^)

There sould be more anime of this 'cause the soundtrack is too awesome to just be used in just this special episode.
I liked this special, it's Interesting, touching and has that "dream-like atmosphere". Overall, it's great except for the awful CG.

I really enjoyed it and hope there will be a TV series in the future. Now it's time to read the manga~

i love that it has that slice of life feel to it, even though it has all that action and stuff <3

Aww, I was tearing up. Would make a nice little series as long as it focuses on the people and not the bug fighting.

Niche remind me so much of Eve from Black Cat x.x

Those cute loli girls <3

So I take it DATS screwed the pooch on this one? Then should I assume the magical measurement units of distance "keels" was actually "kilos", as in kilometers?

Story was pretty sweet, even though we still basically know nothing about the show.

Ugh, can't find it anywhere and I don't want to install their browser. Crapzorz

SubsFuckingWhere have subbed this now, so you now download it via torrent from their site.
