Tekkonkincreet

If you haven't seen the anime adaptation to Taiyo Matsumoto’s graphic novel Tekkonkincreet, I suggest you find it as soon as possible and do just that. Brought to the screen by Studio 4C, this version of the popular graphic novel is on of the most beautiful pieces of animation I have seen since....well just since (I'm not a super anime geek, so I'm no authority on this subject).

There is an interview with the CEO of 4C as well as some of the team that worked on the film on the PingMag site available here. Although there is no mention of another anime called Mind Game by the same team, that is also well worth a watch for it's rather leftfield style and story.

So, if like me, you are struggling to come to terms with the recession and have no money to go out and piss your measly earnings up a wall, go and search these gems out. You'll probably find them free on the web, but I strongly suggest buying them as they may well change your life forever (let's just hope they don't try and make a live action version and kill them like they seem to be doing with so many other classics).

Have Your Say: Michael Jackson R.I.P.

ESPV pays our respects to all-time pop legend Michael Jackson, who has reportedly died in L.A. today from cardiac arrest, aged 50. US media reports someone at the singer’s household called 911 around 12pm and when paramedics arrived shortly after he was not breathing. Whilst some local media is claiming that he is in a coma in a Los Angeles hospital, the L.A. Times and several other reports are confirming he has died. Fans await a statement from his family.
Were you a fan?
Loved by millions since his early years in the Jackson Five, Michael Jackson’s fame and fortune was not without controversy. Charged a number of times for child molestation, the singer had two infamous court cases; one settled in court, one settled out of court (November 2003, USD 20million).
In recent years Jackson’s strange behavior and changing physical looks seemed to fill the headlines along with the artist’s children which, have been shrouded in secrecy by Jackson to protect them from the media.
Many fans claim that the molestation charges were fabricated and that the pop legend deserves our respect. Others however, believe the singer got-off jail time by using his wealth to buy himself out of trouble. Some simply feel that we will never know the truth but we can at lest respect him for his amazing talents and performances.
What do you think?
Are you a fan?
Do you believe Jackson should be remembered as the king of pop for all time?
