I like chicks with guns. Especially the dead serious kind with ice cold eyes. The best part is, this one can't die. The title character "corpse princess" Makina has as many lives as necessary, constantly coming back to life after undergoing all sorts of deaths.

Casshern Sins Short Synopsis: Our lead character has upset a lot of (or robots in this case) by killing someone. Highlights: That Casshern-guy is rather dull.

It’s not too often that I get to talk about a new GAINAX anime coming down the pike. Unlike the BONES or KyoAnis of the anime world, GAINAX seems to release things at a much slower pace. It’s better than the dry spell they had been going through from 1999-2006, however. I can take one [...]

I don’t know who ANN sucked off to get this news, but Gainax apparently told them about one of their new projects, a TV adaptation of Akahito Yoshiichi’s horror mnaga Shikabane Hime. I’m guessing that this is the serious/”heavy” TV series they mentioned before. Though this was actually already rumored; a couple of people were discussing [...]
