The first film in the Eureka 7 film trilogy premiered back in September 2017 and we learned this summer that the second film, Anemone: Eureka Seven: Hi – Evolution, is set for a November 10th, 2018 debut in Japan. As that’s just about a month away, the Bandai channel has now brought out some new advertising for it with a 15-second and 30-second pair of spots to highlight the theme song and the animation itself. With the series picked up for overseas distribution by a lot of companies already it’ll be a short wait to get this one into theaters.
Check out our review of the first film.
The project sees Tomoki Kyouda returning as the general director working with hands-on director Hisatoshi Shimizu working off of the screenplays by Dai Sato. Kenichi Yoshida is on board as the character designer with Bones once again producing the animation for it.
Plot Concept: Ten years ago, the major earth-shaking “First Summer of Love” event occurred. Renton, who lost his father during the event, now attends the army school of the United Federation of Predgio Towers located in the border town of Bellforest. Because his late father is still praised, Renton feels something is lacking as he continues with his ordinary, boring days. Then one day, Nirvash, the world’s oldest LFO, appears in front of him and a girl named Eureka emerges from the cockpit. This was the beginning of the future of humans and Scub Coral, another intelligent lifeform.
Was this encounter all just a coincidence? Or was it fate? Where will Renton and Eureka’s journey end?
