Gasaraki: Difference between revisions

 

''Gasaraki'' was produced by [[Sunrise (company)|Sunrise]], directed by Ryosuke Takahashi of ''[[Armored Trooper VOTOMS]]'' fame and originally aired in 1998. [[ADV Films]] released a translated version. It is a bit notable for more recent anime fans as the first big "series-wide" directoral job a certain Goro Taniguchi had - he was "assistant director" for the entire show and helped to make it (somewhat) comprehensible. His work here would lead to him being allowed to fully write, direct and produce ''[[Planetes]]'' (which could not possibly be more different from this show) and ''[[Code Geass]]'' (which, on some level, might be seen as ''Gasaraki'''s spiritual successor - it takes on a lot of the same fundamental themes as ''Gasaraki'', just [[Byronic Hero|from a different viewpoint]]).
