P.S.

“Have you ever wanted to be reincarnated?”
That is the question that Oshii Mamoru, the creator of the film, asks the viewer in the movie posters, DVD packages, etc. But that is not the real question. If you ever had that chance, what would you do? When you find out that you end up doing the exact same thing in every life you get, how would you react? These human-like species called Kildren, the byproduct of medical research, live eternally as adolescents. They live forever as pilots in the cruel game of war created by grown-ups. Some enjoy the situation to its full. Some say it’s just a job and go on with their lives. Some get hopelessly confused by their own fate. Life after life.
If you are looking for some war-bird action film, this may not satisfy your hunger. If you are looking for some happy film, this is not it. It is a somewhat depressing, yet beautiful rendition of a never-ending story, originally crafted by the popular novelist Mori Hiroshi, brought to film life by, as I’ve mentioned earlier, the master anime director Oshii Mamoru. You’re in for a flight that you will not forget for weeks, if not for lives.

Continuing the tradition from Froth-Bite days, we’re releasing yet another Lupin TV special. This is the latest one, airing during the summer of 2008. It comes with all the cliche goodies of recent Lupin series – hot babe, cool action, silly comic relief, relaxing music, and the list goes on and on…
Fujiko sends Lupin on a wild goose chase like always, and in the end he betrays her? And worst of all, he can’t seem to remember why? Oh no, our favorite thief is suffering from amnesia (or is it Alzheimer’s?) Maybe Lupin is losing his touch.
A must-see for Lupin fans!
An additional note on Lupin series: as some of you may have heard, there is another TV special coming this late March—Lupin vs Conan. I’m planning to work on this series as well as soon as the footage is available, with possible re-release when DVD is available later.
