Director Hiromasa Yonebayashi, who is considered one of Studio Ghibli's successors, recently attended a special animation announcement and symposium event for the movie "Marnie in Memories" held in Tokyo, and publicly announced his retirement from Studio Ghibli at the end of last year.

During a conversation with Daisuke Takahashi, a huge fan of Studio Ghibli's work, the host asked him what he thought of the next film, to which director Yallin said, "I'm not a Ghibli guy anymore. I resigned from the company at the end of the year, and now I am not a member of the firm. ”

However, he then expressed his confidence in the future production of animation: "I talked a lot with Yoshiaki Nishimura about the production of zuò, and although I don't know what form it will take yet, I hope to continue to produce zuò works. When asked about the type of work, he also looked forward: "For example, a work that is completely opposite to this work and is full of fast-moving works, and I also want to try fantasy works. ”

Director Yonebayashi added, "I still wanted to make a work with Zuò, and being able to work with Mr. Takahashi, who is taking him to the next level, gave me courage. However, in the face of Mirin's thanks, Takahashi sighed with wide eyes: "The news is amazing. But he still sent a blessing: "I will look forward to it." ”

This time, to commemorate the release of Blu-ray & DVD, this video was projected on ice, and Takahashi accompanied the theme song "FineOnTheOutside" to show a special animation of xiàn's acting. The video is currently available on the official website, and an advertisement will be broadcast on Nippon TV.

And for this big news, Japanese netizens have also sparked various discussions: "Ghibli is really finished", "Mirin has been fired", "In the end, Ghibli is just Miyazaki and Takahata Sakumi, it's better for young people to ask for another home." As for the follow-up dynamics of director Mirin and Studio Ghibli, Tencent Animation will also continue to pay attention.

The poster of the finale of the "Mobile Police" movie "The Decisive Battle in the Capital".

The finale of the classic anime "Mobile Police" series of live-action films, the feature-length film "THENEX**ENERATION Mobile Police Capital Decisive Battle" will be released in Japan on May 1. Now the poster of this work has been announced.

The poster is set against the backdrop of the battle-torn Metropolitan Hall and the Rainbow Bridge, and the two INGRAMs, who are sworn to protect the capital, have all taken up arms and entered a state of imminent battle. AT THE BOTTOM OF THE INGRAM, IN ADDITION TO THE FAMILIAR MEMBERS OF THE SPECIAL CAR SECOND CLASS SUCH AS JILIFU AND MAYANO ERINA, THERE IS ALSO KOTARO YOSHIDA, AN OLD DRAMA BONE WHO HAS PLAYED MANY CLASSIC SUPPORTING ROLES. The slogan at the top right of the poster is a shocking phrase: "Japan has become a battlefield". How will the second class of special vehicles defeat the terrorist group with camouflage fighters? Let's wait and see.

The live-action series "THENEX**ACTIVATION Mobile Police", which was produced at a huge expense, was supervised by Mamoru Oshii, and realistically reproduced the 8-meter-long Type 98 INGRAM and the Special Car Second Division in the anime. The series consists of a short film with all 7 chapters and a feature-length film. Now that all the short films have been released, the final feature-length film, "Battle in the Capital", will be released in Japan on May 1.

If it's a man, put a shockwave! 10,000 people voted for the most wanted nirvana

Charapedia, a Japanese website that conducts rankings for a variety of years, has released its latest findings. In this survey, we'll look at the skills you're most likely to dream of, so let's take a look at the skills you're all dreaming of.

The first place with a large advantage is the "Turtle School Qigong" used by the actor Monkey King of "Dragon Ball". Probably for countless boys, when they were young, they would shout into the air after watching "Dragon Ball", "Turtle School Qigong!" "Right? A simple action can trigger a magical effect in the anime, and it's also a nirvana that Goku first mastered, so it's almost impossible to be at the top of the list, right?

And Mikoto Misaka's super electromagnetic cannon ranked second. Although every time it comes to the strength ranking of the "Some" series, many magic forbidden kitchens will jump out and complain about Sister Cannon's battle against the five scum. Indeed, although it is one of the only 7 LV5 superpowers in the school city, Sister Cannon's strength is not only far from the first two, but it is not on the same level as the demon gods flying all over the sky in the current demon forbidden world. But it must be admitted that the picture of Sister Cannon flicking a coin and releasing her power accompanied by electric light is too handsome, so not only many male viewers like Sister Cannon, but also a large number of girls shout "Sister" all day long, and you can feel the mood of **sunspot from it.

And the Miracle Generation Captain Seishiro Akaji is in third place. His ability is "the eye of the emperor" in the terminology of the original work, but there are also many fans who directly understand it as "the spirit of the king". The phrase "no one can look down on me" is enough to make many big men paralyzed in fright. Even if such a skill is not used on the basketball court, it is a good choice for heroes to save the United States.

The ability to pass on one side and the ability to pass on one side ranked fourth. If you just watch "The Super Electromagnetic Cannon of Science", then one party fully shows what it means to be cool and crazy when facing Sister Cannon and her sisters. THE ABILITY TO CHANGE VECTORS IS A STANDARD BUG IN MANY CASES. Although one party is still not an absolute powerhouse in the Forbidden World, even if the white wings are exploded, it is still not an absolute powerhouse, but like Sister Cannon's super electromagnetic cannon, sometimes handsomeness is the reason why everyone is thirsty.

In addition, Kuroko Tetsuya's "sight induction" ranked fifth. This skill got 434 votes, and I believe that the vast majority of people chose this not to play basketball, but to have the sense of zero existence of Kuroko, so as to do something they want to do, right? Of course, if you really have this skill, I believe that the door of the NBA is open for you at any time~

In addition, Kirito's Starburst Air Flow Slash, Ryota Kise's perfect imitation, Lelouch's "Chicken and Duck Death", Monkey King's teleportation, and Shirai Kuroko's spatial movement are also in the top ten.

[10,000 people selection: the special move and ability you want to use the most once]

In July, the list of voice actors of "A Loving Family" was announced

The TV anime "A Family with Love", adapted from Kazusa's original four-panel manga, has recently been officially announced by the official list of 5 main voice actors. Including Satomi Akisaka, Mikako Komatsu, Tokui Aoku, and Saya Horino are extremely popular female voice actors. The only male voice actor is Atsushi Abe, who has been an outstanding performer in works such as "Catalogue of Forbidden Books of Magic" (Kamijo Dangma). I believe that with the start of the animation, we can see the complaint of "when the hemp crosses the set opens", right?

In addition, in terms of production personnel, the director of the work is Hiroshi Kimura, and the studio is CreatorsinPack.

"A Family with Love" tells the daily story of the 5 Nakano brothers and sisters. Although the parents are alive, they remain "busy", "on business" and "traveling" all year round, which is basically a standard setting of "having a sister and a house". However, unlike some **-oriented works, what stands out in "A Loving Family" is family affection, which may make everyone feel different when watching.

Yumetsuki: Satomi Akasaka

The official trailer of the movie version of "Sea Street Diary" was announced

Based on Akio Yoshida's popular manga, the live-action film version of "Sea Street Diary", directed by Hirokazu Kore-eda of "Like Father, Like Son", has recently revealed the official trailer and new promotional poster.

The original work of "Kaigai Diary" was serialized irregularly in the "Monthly Flowers" (Shogakukan) by Akio Yoshida since the summer of 2006. Set in Kamakura, it tells the story of four half-sisters living together. In the 1 minute and 31 second trailer exposed this time, the most touching part is the eldest daughter Yuki played by Haruka Ayase, the second daughter Kanno played by Masami Nagasawa, the third daughter Chika played by Xia Fan, and the fourth sister Suzu who is half-sister with the three sisters played by Suzu Hirose, and the picture of the four sisters sitting around a low table laughing together.

Of course, in addition to the heartwarming scenes, you can also see the verbal dispute between the biological mother of the three sisters played by Shinobu Otake and the eldest daughter Yuki, and the picture of the tearful Suzu being comforted by the three half-sisters. The narration in the film, "This is the story of 4 people who really became family members for 1 year", concisely summarizes the whole story.

In addition, Shirishi Kiki's aunt and grandmother Shidai, Doctor Shiina played by Tishinichi, Kano's boss Sakashita played by Ryo Kase, the manager of the Sea Cat Cafeteria played by Jun Fuki, and the owner of the tea restaurant Bobcat Pavilion played by Masaya Nakagawa can all be seen in this trailer.

The cinematography for this work was done by the famous videographer Mikanya Takimoto, and the music was composed by Yoko Kanno, who is very familiar to anime fans. Just by looking at such a lineup, it is not difficult to guess the atmosphere after the work is completed. Japan will be released on June 13, so let's look forward to it.

Classic wall knock! "The Heroine is Disqualified" special report video

A live-action film based on the popular manga "The Heroine is Disqualified" by Hyako Koda has released a special video. The biggest highlight of this special report is the grimace performance of the heroine Matsuzaki Hatori played by Mirei Kiritani, regardless of her image, and Kentaro Sakaguchi's classic wall knock on the school's most popular boy, Hirosuke Kokusa Hiromitsu to Hatori.

"The Heroine is Disqualified" is a school romantic comedy manga featuring Matsuzaki Hatori, a high school girl who believes that she will be able to marry her childhood sweetheart, Rita Terabaka.

In addition to the aforementioned Mirei Kiritani and Kentaro Sakaguchi, there is also Kento Yamazaki who plays Rita Terasaka, who is a childhood friend with Hatori. The work is scheduled to be released in Japan this summer.

Strange promotional slogan: Yuki Tomino completely denies "V Gundam"

The Blu-ray BOX for Mobile Suit V Gundam will be released on July 24, 2015 (the second volume will be released on September 25, 2015). Recently, the official announced the relevant information, and Yuki Tomino, who served as the chief director of the work, also wrote a rare promotional slogan, but after reading it, I am afraid everyone will sigh: It is worthy of the bald style! The details are as follows:

I'm completely negative about this work. And the reason for this result is all my fault as a director. I hope that those who have watched this Blu-ray disc will be able to find out what went wrong and understand what is wrong with Mobile Suit V Gundam. If even one person notices it, then I think the significance of this blue light is also reflected.

I hope you will support both anime and manga in the future.

Yusuke Murata (painting):

Being able to give a testimonial on the animation of One Punch Man like this is something that makes me feel deeply emotional. On the day the animation was officially confirmed, I was tempted to tweet something as soon as my mind was hot, but I eventually held back. Thanks to these excellent producers, they meet every week to discuss and get the best fit for the content and the graphics. I can't wait to see the finished version sooner rather than later. I hope that more people can see the active posture of Saitama and other characters who have flown into the TV.

Kishimoto Kishimoto's "Hokage" won the "Art Choice Award" Newcomer Award

On March 12, the Agency for Cultural Affairs announced the winners of the 2014 Art Awards. Among them, Kishimoto was awarded the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Newcomer Award in the Media Arts Section. The winning work is the classic manga "Naruto", which ended after 15 years of serialization in "Weekly Shonen Jump" (Shueisha) last year.

Every year, the "Art Awards" award awards outstanding achievements in various fields of art. There are 11 divisions: Acting, Film, Music, Dance, Literature, Fine Arts, Television, Popular Arts, Art Promotion, Criticism and Others, and Media Arts. Winners can receive certificates and bonuses. The award ceremony will take place on March 18 at 4 p.m.

Kishimoto's reasons for the award:

"Naruto" deepens the elements of the royal road shonen manga "challenge, growth, battle, friendship and the power of companionship", and very harmoniously integrates "elements of folk heritage, history, and Oriental culture" to brew its own unique cosmology. The characters on the stage are full of images, and most of them have their own thoughts, worries, and communication about combat. The reason why this book is loved by readers all over the world may be because "the protagonist always maintains a mentality of eager to communicate", right? In order to usher in a better future, long live the Hokage!

The second part of "Frozen" starts filming! The system remains the same

The news about the sequel to "Frozen" has always attracted attention, on the one hand, the bold speculation of foreign media, on the other hand, the director's cautious attitude that he will not make zuò in the near future, and today Disney officially gave a definite answer - "Frozen" is sure to make a sequel!

At a shareholder conference call on Thursday local time, Disney officially announced that it would put the production of "Frozen 2" on the agenda. The sequel will continue to be directed by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee alongside the directors of the first film. However, Disney has not yet announced the release date of "Frozen 2", after Chris Buck said that until there is a satisfactory script, the production plan of "Frozen 2" will not be rushed forward: "Our goal is to surpass the previous game, it is not easy to do it, but we like this challenge." ”

The "Frozen" series is another animation goldmine developed by Disney, and since its release, the first work has grossed $1.24 billion worldwide, and won two awards at the 2014 Oscars for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song. The film's spin-off short film "Frozen: Birthday Surprise" will also patch "Cinderella", which will be released on March 13, to meet North American fans.

Since "Frozen" took four years of polishing to finally take shape, it seems that the sequel should not be fast now. In the coming years, Disney will release "Animal Utopia" and the animated film "Moana" featuring the first Australian princess.
