![]() She lives alone, but receives her orders from her “guardian” Akai, and his best bruh Kanie. So this girl Sawa is some orphan girl who goes to school by day, and works as an assassin on the side. The show is a 60 minute roller coaster of somber scenes, interspersed with edge-of-seat action, nudity and sex. Quite a bit so that when we were introduced to the crowd, there were immediate shouts of “manyak!” directed at us, but probably me in particular. Although the show isn’t quite as popular as more mainstream chics-with-guns shows like Gunslinger Girl or Ghost in the Shell, many enthusiasts have watched it. Remember when I wrote about a band I formed for one of the Toycons back in the mid-00’s? This was the show that I took the name of the band from. It was made by Green Bunny Studios, under the direction of one Yasuomi Umetsu, who had worked on Megazone 23, Sol Bianca : The Legacy, Cool Devices and many others.

The first anime I’ll make a review on would be one that I’d first watched a very long time ago. anime, animated explicit sex, teenage assassin, sexual abuse - She may be cute. I’ll do my best to avoid spoilers for my “Thoughts” entries, it’d be best if you see the show yourself. I may or may not be doing much of a review, rather than just totally talking about it. Most Western cartoons are geared toward children, whereas anime often has content reserved in the realm of adults. While it is of course generally agreed upon that anime is a cartoon, not all anime is for children. A lot of people my age may frown at the fact that I watch anime, and quite a bit of it at that. Most of you know me would know about my penchant for watching anime. Still, with Jackson and Ellis on board, it looks like it's actually, genuinely, definitely going to happen, which should herald the start of hundreds of thousands of anime aficionados crying into their chawan.Today I’m gonna try my hand at doing something that I have never done before in any of my blogs – write an anime review.

Helping her are the two corrupt detectives on the case of the double homicide, Akai and Kanie, who take her in as guardians, and, um. Released in two parts before being edited together as a 60-minute piece for the US market, the 1998 anime told the tale of an orphaned schoolgirl called Sawa who sets about finding the killer who murdered her parents. "I'll be doing a live-action version of that in Johannesburg." "After, I'm going to do this live-action version of Kite, the Japanese anime," he said. Jackson announced his involvement with the project while on promotional duties for Django Unchained, where he mentioned to what he had on his slate after the RoboCop remake wraps. Jackson, who previously worked with Ellis on Snakes On A Plane back in 2006. ![]() Ellis has helmed** Final Destination 2**, Cellular, Shark Night and, um, Homeward Bound II: Lost in San Francisco, but now he's got the toughest challenge of his career ahead of him: adapting the furiously violent and much-loved anime Kite into a live-action Hollywood thriller.Īiding him in his quest is Samuel L. ![]()
