Good for him - a way to try to make lemonade out of lemons! Though it'll be tough in this economy...

I hope he does well and with this. I'm glad he got back on his feet so fast. Not just because of how bad things were with Gonzo but because it's been a while since a new animation company started and everyone else is so caught up in their old tricks to try something new.
When the new season started I tried to guess which animation company was doing what show just by looking at summaries and I was right about 75% of the time.

With any entertainment company you always have to restart. Over the years they pick up baggage. With Gonzo basically out of his hands the only thing he'd end up being there is a figurehead if he stayed.

If he knows what he's doing, then he'll probably start out small with this, and expand. Not too much output at first that way they'll be able to at least recuperate funds and expand. See how things go from there.

Looking at the photo, I hope Toshiro got approved by the Lambda Lambda Lambda president. Laughing

Hey, I just had a great idea for their first project:


Half Life - The Anime!

It could be their namesake, flagship, international breakthrough title. Half-life would make a great anime Smile.

"Looking at the photo, I hope Toshiro got approved by the Lambda Lambda Lambda president." -enurtsol

wait, he's a tri-lam? does that mean he's he's the photo-guy? "Takashi: Oh Hair pie! Hair pie! "

elsewise? a little revolution, now and again, is a good thing...

Sort of... I was just playing off their name "Lambda Films". You know, how lambda is the half life logo and all.
