    Another Live Action Trailer

    by chad

    Revel in delight, fellow Another fans!

    The live action film adaptation of the 2009 novel-turned-anime craze this year is currently being shown on Japanese theaters since August 4, 2012. That said, it won’t take long for it to be released in BluRay after about a month or two, to be fansubbed a day after, and uploaded to the torrents domain on the same day! A little more patience is all.

    Usually, live action adaptations of Japanese anime are known to suck rancid balls, but this one as well as Rurouni Kenshin actually look promising.

    Let’s expect it around early October, then. For now, here’s the English-subbed trailer!

    Another 00 OVA is Out!

    by chad

    The OVA of Another finally hit the market last May 26, 2012 bundled with the “0th” volume of the manga. This 24-minute episode is set before the beginning of the series. It shows us a quick look on the lives of the two Misaki twins, and how the so-called ‘Calamity’ in the town of Yomiyama started.

    It’s been awhile since I finished Another, but watching this OVA brought back that old depressing feeling the series was able to uniquely explicate. It’s refreshing to see Misaki Mei acting like the normal middle-schooler she was supposed to be. Well, until ‘That’ happened. In the series, she was introduced to the viewers as a quiet and unfeeling character. For those who’ve watched it, we all know how it’s gonna end.

    Another Review

    by chad

    Wow. Upon checking my posts, my last anime review was Ore No Imouto which was done more than a month ago. I guess I’ve been too busy watching more that I deliberately wrote less. And there’s work too. Sorry to those who kept on visiting my site only to read useless personal posts lol.

    Anyway, I’ve decided to write about the anime adaptation of Another, which I’ll definitely remember as one of the most awesome shows released in early 2012. Having aired its finale last March 27, this mystery horror anime really appealed to me since besides being a fan of uncanny and unusual shows, it has zero fanservice (well except for that one beach trip, but the atmosphere in that episode was still depressing), which is rare. I don’t have anything against fanservice or anything, but it just tires me to watch time-consuming awkward angles that deprive me of exercising my imagination on my own.

    Plot: In 1972, a popular student named Misaki died in an accident. Her classmates, devastated by her unexpected death, carried on in class as if she’s still alive. If other people were to ask about Misaki, her classmates would point to her empty desk and say ‘What do you mean? Misaki’s right there.‘ They kept her desk in place and even went as far as bringing it to their graduation ceremony. The story goes that the dead Misaki was actually present in their graduation class photo.

    Spring 1998. Due to his father going to India for work, Kouichi Sakakibara transfers from Tokyo to his grandparents’ house in the rural town of Yomiyama. Alas, his lung collapsed which got him hospitalized, making him skip the first few weeks of school.

    A few days before leaving the hospital and starting school, he gets visited by fellow classmates from Yomi North: Izumi Akazawa, Tomohiko Kazami and Yukari Sakuragi, to check up on their new comrade.

    Unable to call his dad, Kouichi decides to go outside the hospital to get a decent cell phone signal. He meets an eye-patched girl on the elevator wearing the same uniform girls wear in Yomi North. She mentions her name is Misaki Mei and that she has to do something, to fulfill a promise. Kouichi bids her goodbye as she fades away from the lightless basement floor, walking towards the morgue with a creepy doll in hand.

    On his first day of school, he notices that he’s actually classmates with this Misaki Mei.
