I'll watch it. It's interesting to see puppet theater. Also, Gen's at the help, and TM's doing the OP. And hey... it's one show where people won't have to worry about fanservice, right?

Team America has scarred me. I'm kind of scared. And Being John Malkovich. That did not help either.
Ganbatte. (To everyone else.) |

If you slow it down, maybe. Still nope for me, though. I also forgot the Nsync music video, and now I am showing my age. Not for me, tx. |

Of all the people to handle the music for this they had to choose Aniplex so that they could just do the obvious and put Sawano on it after not even getting 10 days from his last soundtrack gig for a disappointing show they did the music for. Blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah such a terrible bland safe and uninspired decision
 Just why?
I don't know I just associate Hiroyuki Sawano with really bloody bad anime nowadays (how could I not really given what he's scored for of late and how it's all turned out) and might have checked this out for the whole stop motion animation technique thing but I can't stand that guys music now that it just reminds me of countless bad experiences and just kind of always sounds like the music from those shows too. It might just be the way I'm wired but after getting exposed to the same thing for years it tends to just inspire ambivalence until I get a decent break from it. Like a year or maybe even two, good for the people that can still get amped up over his music, I too wish I could travel back to a 2011 mindset when these sorts of things were still fresh. Now that I think of it Gen Urobuchi hasn't been all that hot in a while either. I think the last show he did that didn't just come across as kind of mediocre at best or too short too really leave much of an impression might have been the first Psycho-Pass season way back in 2012. I just don't see him nor have I ever really seen as anything to get particularly excited about nor do I consider him a necessarily a bad writer, just kind of a writer with his own sets of ideas and motifs that he likes to use across various formats. That just kind of leaves the puppet show guys whom I hope achieve whatever goals they might have in mind for promoting their art with this project. To my knowledge it's not very well known outside of Taiwan and parts of Southeast Asia. |

Yes! YES!
I could care less if Gen Urobuchi's name is attached to this. All I care about is that we're finally getting a decent English version of one of these Taiwanese puppet shows. Hopefully, this is a success and it leads to more. |

EEEEEEEE! I wasn't expecting anyone to bring this over to the English world, so I am super jazzed about this news. I am totally ready for some awesome puppets.

I grew up on old episodes of Thunderbirds. I think I can give this a shot.

That Alabaster guy is really getting on my nerve these days. If you got something to complaint about the industry all the time, then maybe you should get a new hobby, old man. I find it uneasy to see someone that is far older than me that kept muttering up shits and mud.
