Madhouse is gearing up to make an anime called Tenjho Tenge. If you don't know what that is, its based off of the Manga by Oh Great! Twisted Evil I'm a big fan. Laughing Its got the typical highschool fighting theme but with a very interesting plot and great characters. Check it out.

Slick. Madhouse is probably my favorite studio. I've yet to really be disappointed by their work.

It'll be interesting to see how they work around such a tired premise.

Nah, Tenjou Tenge is awesome. Neat characters, neat fights, all that good stuff.

I know Zac is a huge fan, so he might rail you for that particular comment later. Wee!

YES! I was totally ecstatic when I heard about this. I just hope they don't tone it down too much for TV, which is usually what happens to manga. They really don't pull punches in Tenjou Tenge; characters die, etc and so on.

Anyway, I can't wait.

Just better hope it doesn't get treated like Real Bout High School.
I can see that conversation now:

Kadokawa Shoten: "Hey Gonzo, we want you to make Real Bout High School into an anime for us"
Gonzo: "Sure! We'd love to do a remake of Battle Royal High School!"
KS: Uh, no, I said Real Bout High School, it's a manga about this girl who does organized sword fighting at school against a bunch of rivals"
Gonzo: Yeah, like I said, Battle Royal High School, with all thos mosters and stuff trying to take over earth!"
KS: ...
