Project Blue#v#project_blue.jpg#v# Project Blue 地球 SOS (chikyu SOS) was something that really caught my eye at the TAF - the fluid animation, character design UFO's shooting seven shades of poop out of earthlings done it for me. The camera work is quite wobbly...
Demon BaneDemon Bane originally came out as an adult PC game back in 2003 but since then has made it to books, the PS2 and now anime. The series features cute moe girlies and huge chunky mechas - what more could you want from an anime series heh?
The anime se...
Range MurataIf you enjoyed The last Exile then you would probably like the other stuff from Range Murata and there were lots of it on display at the TAF. Mind you - not all of these pics are Murata-sans work - this was all in the same booth.
Getsumen Usagi Heiki MinaJust about everybody I know who has seen Densha Otoko wants that figure of Mina. But how about a 1/1 scale version - or even a "live" one?!
The Galaxy RailwaysOne of the most "interesting" bits of the TAF was probably this lady who was at the Galaxy Railways booth who looked rather pretty. As for the series, the animation was a bit naff but some of the good episodes made up for that.
Bandai NamcoNot sure if you are aware but Bandai and Namco have merged together to form a company called...wait for it...Bandai Namco. Well I suppose punters wont get confused.
Anyway, Bandai did decided to show their face this time after their absence at the W...
Strike NoirOn display at the Bandai booth was Strike Noir from the up n coming Gundam Seed CE 73 Stargazer - but being typical Bandai, they bring it out as a HG... WE WANT MORE MG's!
Samurai 7You now know about the new series of Witchblade coming out from Gonzo but you should also know about Samurai 7. They had a few promo movies of this running and I must say that its looking very nice - just imagine a samurai theme with mechas and sengo...
IGPXApart from the Ghost in the Shell, Production IG also had IGPX goodies including that model of Takeshi's IGPX racer that we took a look at a while ago. Cant wait to get my grubby mitts on the game next week.

BTW, Gonzague took some excellent footage at the TAF - check out the 7 min HD video clip! Its the next best thing to being there (without th...
MG GYANOn display at the TAF (Tokyo Anime Fair) on Bandai's stall was MG Gyan and as far as I could tell from looking through the glass - it uses Bandai's new frame technology that we have been seeing the the "Ver 2.0's". I have no idea when it comes out.
Ghost in the Shell - SSS#v#flv_ssc.jpg#v# Production IG was showing a short promotion trailer for the new Ghost in the Shell series - Solid State Society which I happily recorded for you ;-)
The clip is very short mind you and shows bits form the first and second series t...
Tokyo Anime Fair 2006Just got back from the Tokyo Anime fair 2006 and I’m absolutely knackered. There was lots to see including the trailer for the new Ghost in the Shell series - Solid State Society (which I'm rendering now), Bandai had MG Gyan on display and other stuf...
