Adult media company Mediabank was selling a doujinshi at Comiket 73 (Toranoana mail order page) that featured a short volume of rough sketches from artists Kino Hitoshi, Maruta, and Mogudan, along with a DVD that contained preview material from three eroanime episodes currently in production, one designed by each of the above artists and produced by Mediabank eroanime label White Bear (the full Mediabank eroanime catalog can be found here). Those familiar with White Bear’s work won’t be surprised to hear that fidelity to the artists’ original designs is questionable, but news that veteran director Yoshi-Ten (of Bible Black fame) will be helming the Mogudan episode makes me optimistic that it will be something worth seeing. Screenshots and further details below:
Kino Hitoshi
– Gakuen Shimai –
2008 Spring
MARUTA
– Osananajimi to Dokyuusei –
2008 Spring
Mogudan x Yoshi-Ten
– Bakunyuu Maid Kari –
2008 Fall
As can be seen the Mogudan project is the least developed at this point, and there were no samples of actual animation from it on the disc; I’m very curious what the killer artist / director combo will be able to produce together, so we’ll be keeping a close eye out for any further news.
RE: Bakunyuu Maid Kari
I cheer this on with all my fanboyish heart.
A Mogudan ero-anime? I sure hope this doesn’t get mucked up . . .
any idea who is helming the KNH and Maruta works? They are two of my favorite mangakas. Unfortunately like you said the current screens don’t inspire much confidence…
Haven’t seen much of Mogudan’s work other than the boobular Rei doujinshis, so can’t say much about his/her work lol.
What else to say except I’m impatiently waiting for the completed products to be released. 8)

There’s no information yet regarding who is directing the Kino Hitoshi and Maruta episodes, alas.
In addition to his Rei doujinshi Mogudan is also responsible for character design for the Crowd RPG eroge Brave Soul and the Scrapped Princess anime, among other things.
Busty maids make everything better. Where’s my PVC figures?

Thanks for the Brave Soul link. I will pick this up once my finances are in better shape. 8) I’m in need of a good ero RPG since my last was Knights of Xentar many many years ago.

Busty females make everything better. BTW, there’s a report in Singapore’s newspaper this week that commented that due to the influx of foreign residents, bigger cup size bra sales have increased. 8)
News about ero-anime. Now that’s rare.
These guys had made “Discipline,” “Cleavage,” “Nee, Chan…,” and “Oudeo 48.” They’re…
That company’s WAY better than Anik/Himajin, the people who made “True Blue” and “Immoral.” So I’ll keep a lookout for these titles.
