Appleseed Sequel: EX Machina!

[Marcus Dublin]

Here's small teaser: http://www.exmachina.jp/ to the Appleseed sequel "EX Machina". I was a huge fan of the books, 80's film and the remake and I can't wait to see what they have in store for the sequel!:D

I'm not holding my breath for this one. Looks better than the last, but can't tell about the animation and dialogue much from just the trailer.

[shadowbreeze]

man i'm so looking forward to this yeah i,m a big fan of appleseed and just about any other anime, although some are just a little to umm er wrong sometimes.

[Marcus Dublin]

Yeah the art style is a bit more cohesive and a bit more realistic than the first film. It looks like the art staff got used to the technology and the trailer reflects that so far.

I really liked the buildings in the first 1(especially the destroyed stuff), the explosions, smoke ect. where not so nice tho, i hope this more realistic flavour helps blend the smoke and other particles into it better as the arcitecture looks the same kick assness

Wondering if i can get a fansub of the Japanese version now.. MMMM i heard it was out in japan last month mmmm

One of my favorite animated films, I am very much looking forward to the sequels. I'm glad they kept the hyper real environment with cell shaded characters, can't wait to get it in the US

[-JL-]

I quite enjoyed the remake.. so I'm looking forward to this one.

By the way have you seen the figures they made for this?

Looks awesome. Can't wait for it =)

What type of render are the doing? some sort of cell shading hybrid type of thing??? I mean the visuals look great...

[Masakari]

Yep, looks really great! I like the art style very much, i always wonder how to get good cel shading like that.

[Marcus Dublin]

They showed how they did much of the sweet CG in the first film on the DVD extras. If you don't already own it I would highly recommend the two disk collectors set, I think anyone making games should have this in there reference collection!:)

[Masakari]

Cool Marcus, i'll have to track that down! Thanks :)

[YdoUwant2know]

yeah, the two disk set rocks!! i have had it for a while, i just wish they showed some more of the models in the making of. if i remember, only one good wire shot in the thing, a lot of concept art though, still very, very cool.
