Me, too. Judging by the plot synopsis, it seems to be focused on one of the "bootleg" Jaegers, which was IMO one of the most interesting parts of PR2.Anguirus wrote:I hope we still recieve the anime series! Last year Netflix had two seasons ordered!

Re: Pacific Rim (the big general thread)
I know this comment is old but ULTRAMAN was animated by Production I.G and SOLA Digital Arts, not Polygon. The same studios collaborated once again for Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045.SoggyNoodles2016 wrote:as the new Ultraman anime shown, while Polygons models are kind of meh, they can do some dope action choreography.

I honestly don’t care if it happens. I’m perfectly content with the first film and all it’s ancillary media. I don’t need an extension or continuation of the universe.

The anime is titled "PACIFIC RIM: THE BLACK" and is expected to see a release sometime in 2021.Gigantis wrote:What does it say? Twitter's being a dickweed right now.
Long ago, humanity defeated the Kaiju. Now, they’re evacuating Australia. In 2021 join a pair of siblings and their battered, long-abandoned Jaegar as they battle across a continent of danger in Pacific Rim: The Black.

Re: Pacific Rim (the big general thread)
Astounding Beyond Belief on Tumblr found this - the opening sequence of the series (featuring a few familiar faces):
I honestly thought this was dead. Frankly, Uprising killed the franchise for me - well, it did kill the film franchise - but I'll check this out.
