Genres: action, horror, supernatural Themes: demons Objectionable content: Intense Plot Summary: The anime re-imagining of the original live-action series follows the Winchester brothers Sam and Dean as they hunt creatures and other supernatural phenomena across the American landscape. The anime will be a 22-episode season that will cover the storyline of the live-action version’s first two seasons. The anime project will not only remake the best episodes from the live-action version, but also depict original episodes not seen in the live-action version. Those original episodes will include prologues of the Winchester brothers’ childhood, anime-only enemies, and episodes featuring secondary characters from the live-action version. Number of episodes: 22 Vintage: 2011-02-23
Yeah, I am definitely getting this when it comes over (if it comes over.) Considering it’s launching in Japan, and looking at the little bit of artwork available, I’d say this is probably Japanese animation.
It’s not anime, but there is a Star Trek animated series, a sequel to the original live action series, out on dvd, featuring most of the original cast voicing their characters.
Gilligan’s Island/Planet anime. Now THAT would be epic.
Yeah, I’ve seen the Star Trek animation. Poor, poor Filmation…
I could go for Gilligan’s Planet as well…lol Or how about an anime reimagining of Captain Planet? Imagine how much better that would have been with more violence, blood and ninjas!
It has been confirmed that MadHouse will be animating this, so I’m very hopeful for it. Given it’s content, they should be able to make a great show out of it.
I’m most looking forward to the Impala being animated its the best part of the show. The story is second. I like cars. Also wonder if they will add in a bad ass occasional soundtrack. AC/DC would probably do it and work fine.
Edit: I hope they Animate the Supernatural convention episode that was one of my favorites.
Meant to post this a while back, but completely forgot. Warner released a new trailer for Supernatural. You have to listen to the Japanese cover of “Carry On My Wayward Son”…lol
On the bright side, it seems like they ditched the Japanese version of “Carry On My Wayward Son”, and instead are using the classic Kansas version. I’m very glad to see that. However, all the clips with Dean are from the final two episodes, so we don’t get much of an idea how his stand-in sounds. That I’m curious to find out.
