Yay! the rumours of a sequel were true!

Enjoy!
Sounds like Shinji Aramaki (bubblegum cirisis production designer) is back as director!
Just did a quick wiki and it sounds like (could be rumour) that there might be a 26 episode 2D series in the pipeline Shirow must be making a fortune! _________________ Subtitles only!? If I wanted to read I would've bought a book!  |

| Looks good but I'm I wrong or have they changed the look a little more 3D looking then 3D/2D look like the first one |

hee hee landmate induced madness! I'm in!
I see what you mean about the toon shading being in decline, hopefully the look will be a bit more polished
John Woo is producer aparently so expect lots of doves flying out of nowhere! hopefully Mr Aramaki will keep him in check
I really hope this time around they get a proper orchestra to do the score, the tunes were great but you could so tell that the orchestral stuff was done on a synthesiser!  _________________ Subtitles only!? If I wanted to read I would've bought a book!  |

If you hadn't said that I might have guessed from watching the trailer, I do note it says "ps2" on the youtube title.
And why oh why does it have to be called "ex machina" it's such a cleche, even Angelic Layer managed a volume title of "deus ex machina".
No matter how good applessed gets it will always be GitS:SAC's little lesser brother. _________________ ...

Now that's interesting, because Shirow always considers Appleseed to be his crowning achievment not suprising since theres about 4 200/300 page books - and he still says it's unfinished!
I guess it's early days yet as to wether this is from the game or the film, either way theres some more appleseed on the way _________________ Subtitles only!? If I wanted to read I would've bought a book!  |

As far as manga goes I'd agree with you, but anime appleseed gets teh raw deal, teh last movie was good but nothing overly special. _________________ ...
