- "Cowboy Bebop: Knockin' on Heaven's Door" (2001): an action-packed all-new story of the band of bounty-hunting misfits from the fan-favourite anime TV series, "Cowboy Bebop". Action, with style.
- "A Tree of Palme" (2002): a fantasy-adventure written and directed by Takashi Nakamura, whose earlier credits include the wonderfully imaginative "Catnapped!", as well as the anime TV series "Peter Pan" and the "Nightmare" segment of "Robot Carnival." Mr. Nakamura was also the chief animator for the classic anime film "Akira."
Additional titles will be announced shortly.
