Halo The Anime Series

Yeah, this is a weird merger, but eh.

Anime geeks will recognize the five production houses working on the films -- Bones, Casio Entertainment, Production I.G., Studio4[Degrees]C, and Toei Animation -- as well as the creative director helping to oversee production for Microsoft: Shinji Aramaki, director of "Appleseed" and "Appleseed Ex Machina."

Re: Halo The Anime Series

That wasn't too exciting... but maybe it is for Halo fans?
And oh, did they put Samus in?

Re: Halo The Anime Series

4C's ODST/Spartan rivalry story.

Production I.G's "Duel"

Production I.G's Spartan origin story.

4C's History piece (two-parter)

Toei's off-canon "Odd One Out" piece.

Re: Halo The Anime Series

That's going to be horrible.

Re: Halo The Anime Series

He looks like a Gundam in that last pick. :p

Re: Halo The Anime Series

So the first one of these is out for viewing on Halo Waypoint for free for today only.
It will probably pop up on youtube some time soon though, just not as good of quality.
Its titled "The Baby Sitter" and its actually pretty sweet.
Its a little short and im hoping the later ones will be longer but it was still cool to watch.
Theres was one little thing that I thought was dumb that im sure others will agree with, but all in all it was a neat addition to Halo.

I think he was referring to what Adam thought was dumb.

Anyhow, I don't think its too short, seeing how there are like 4-6 of these things forming a movie, you'd imagine none would be more than like 25 minutes or so. This may end up being one of the longer ones.

It was interesting, but not too up to knowledge on the Halo lure.

And I didn't spot what was dumb. :(

Re: Halo The Anime Series

I was implying he should go watch it.

Also i just saw it. It was pretty good, tho not great.

Re: Halo The Anime Series

Here's some stuff.

Warner Home Video is set to release 'Halo Legends' on Blu-ray on February 9, 2010, day-and-date with the DVD. The Blu-ray will include several hours of special features, including a BD-exclusive overview of the Halo universe up until the end of Halo 3.

Special features include:
Audio commentary with franchise directors Frank O'Connor and Joseph Chou
The Making of Halo Legends (with an introduction and making-of segments for each episode)
Halo: Gaming Evolved
Halo: The Story So Far (BD-exclusive)

I do like animation on blu-ray. The vibrant colors REALLY pop.

Re: Halo The Anime Series

Well what I thought was stupid was the amount of hair that the Spartan had, they are not supposed to have hair that long, it was like she had a mop on her head, and how did she fit it all in the helmet? Not Spartan regulation hair length, even for a girl!
But im thinking the CG one will be the coolest.

I'm hoping for the latter.

Re: Halo The Anime Series

Both, I never said it was a big annoyance, just a minor detail that I thought was dumb.

Re: Halo The Anime Series

The latest one is up, and I just don't like the art style so its difficult to see past anything else.

Re: Halo The Anime Series

WHY ARE THE ELITES JAPANESE!?

besides the obv its a japanese anime

Re: Halo The Anime Series

Ya I dont like the art either, its weird and blurry.

But the fights were cool at least, and I dont know why the Elites are samurais.
They've kimonos and everything.
But maybe thats the civilization stage they were in and the Covenant came and introduced technology far beyond what they had ever seen before.

Re: Halo The Anime Series

The next one is out, and its the first half of the CG one titled "The Package".
It seemed a lot shorter than the rest and it ended at a lame place, but the second half should be real good.
Just gotta wait 2 more weeks...

Re: Halo The Anime Series

Wasnt really a big fan of it.

Re: Halo The Anime Series

Yeah it was really short, according to the video player, it clocked in at just over 7 minutes.

And it reminded me too much of Star wars.

Re: Halo The Anime Series

So today it says "The Package" again, and at first I thought it was just part one again, but this time its the whole thing.
I enjoyed it. Lots of Spartan action, and the Chief gets served by an Elite.

Re: Halo The Anime Series

didnt really like this one, seemed like Halo fanboy porn to me. :lolz:
