Cat Shit One



That's strange but cool, if you look the tone and style, it just look like MGS4, but they are cutes bunnies! This is a trailer of the anime series called Cat Shit One, or as it's known in the US ... Apocalypse Meow. Directed by Kazuya Sasahara (who you might know as the brains behind Bikini Samurai Squad).
Japan's Studio Anima publicized its computer-animated adaptation ofMotofumi Kobayashi's Cat Shit One manga at Tokyo International Anime Fair this week. ADV Manga released three volumes of the original Cat Shit One manga under the title Apocalypse Meow in North America. The manga follows three American soldiers — Bota, Perky and Rats — during the Vietnam War . The trio just happen to be cute animals in the Cat Shit Onerecon group.

The 12-episode anime series of "real and fierce combat by cute and fluffy animal" updates the manga's premise by making the three soldiers part of a modern private military company. In the first episode, the three attempt to rescue hostages, but end up surrounded by guerrillas demanding the withdrawal of United States Armed Forces in the area. (The original manga had an updated manga sequel with a similar premise called Cat Shit One '80.

很有趣且衝突的組合,戰爭題材結合可愛動物的點子。即使不是為了配合遊戲,也都是個會吸引人想一窺究竟的商業題材。重點是目前看到的episode,質感很好,也表示砸不少摳摳,若非有背後遊戲市場的支撐,想必也很難製作出降的品質。
"動畫"應該是個比想像中更有彈性的媒材或工具。韓國在遊戲上的應用,日本在動漫領域的根植,美國的國際市場商業動畫長片,或是歐洲的藝術動畫...等等,當然也不是這麼絕對,不過,至少都還有很清楚的發展重點。台灣動畫或許因為市場關係,難以投入大規模的成本,就跟電影產業一樣,勢必在未來甚至現在,尋求並確定台灣的定位與角色。
這是個有趣的議題,但似乎不適合在這篇章裡插這張嘴...哈哈,有機會再說吧...
