Classic SF satire scripted by Katsuhiro Ōtomo released on June 11.
Manga UK has streamed a 66-second trailer for the DVD/Blu-ray release of Roujin Z. The classic 1991 feature-length OAV Roujin Z will be released by Kaze through Manga UK on June 11.
The film is an SF satire about an elderly man at the mercy of his robot bed, which suddenly escapes and causes havoc in Japan. The script was by Katsuhiro Ōtomo, who also co-created the mechanical design. In addition, Roujin Z had art design by future director Satoshi Kon.
The film was released to British cinemas in 1994, and came out as a videotape from Manga Entertainment the same year. However, the videotape has been long deleted.
