In today’s update: a Fate / curtain raiser clip is online, the Hellsing OVA gets delayed, there is an explosion of high profile figure releases, and Clayz Matsuri gets so thoroughly scooped you’ll feel like you were there.
Media Side
- A very short TV commercial and a slightly longer clip for in-store play are online for the November 23rd release of the Fate / stay night anime‘s “curtain raiser“. This is the first I’ve seen of the Fate anime in motion, and while it’s hard to form a judgement based on a 16-second commercial for a preview disc of the first episode of a series, what few connected frames are present seem generally encouraging.
- A new episode of Paniponi Dash web radio is online today.
- The official Kamichu! anime site has been updated with information on the DVD-only 11th episode to be included on disc six of the series, out in January.
- The release of the first episode of the new Hellsing OVA has been pushed back from December 9th to January 25th. In totally unrelated news, the Japanese release of Dead or Alive 4 for the xbox 360 has been delayed a week to December 17th.
