Damn, they look great. Shame the wait has to be a while for the BDs but I think it'll be worth it. The premise of all three movies has a lot of potential imo.

The visuals look good as does the plot for each of the movies.

I don't follow this personally, but word from other news articles suggests the late Project Itoh was critically acclaimed for his works while he was alive. If the three movies are well received, it will be quite the legacy spawned long after his passing.

Why does the text say the movies will 'open"? They're Noitamina films.

According to the project's official website, the films will play in theaters, even though they are "Noitamina" films.

It's really disappointing that we don't have Empire of Corpses translated into English, but that doesn't change any of these visuals from looking great. I've been really pumped for these films for a while. Hopefully someone figures out a way for them to release in the West as well. I would love to watch them.

These look great. Hopefully they get picked up for US release too.

All 3 look like the kind of stories I'd enjoy. Looking forward to them.

I wonder how it'll work. A screening with a TV broadcast afterwards? First the broadcast and then the screening? Both simultaneously?

None of the press releases on the three films mention anything about the films being aired on television, so despite the Noitamina branding they may well be following the path set by Eden of the East (2nd season movie).

I'm not all that familiar with Project Itoh's works, but after seeing this set of visuals, I'm now extremely interested in the stories. I'm looking forward to seeing how these projects develop.

I'm quite intrigued by this project. They sound like some potentially interesting stories and there's some solid studios and talent behind them.
