Wolverine The Anime | Animation test

From Warren Ellis:
"This is the first of the two teaser pieces shown at San Diego on Friday. This is the test animation for the WOLVERINE anime series I’m writing, produced for the south east Asian market. Note test animation: it’s intended to show off the style of the piece only. Nothing in here reflects the actual content, just the design and the aesthetic and the animation. The story itself will be loosely based on the WOLVERINE miniseries by Chris Claremont and Frank Miller from the early 1980s. This animation was directed by the legendary Rintaro, I believe.

It’s a little…different."

Wow, part of me just died inside. I purchased volumes 1 and 2 of the Marvel Mangaverse out of sheer morbid curiosity, and found it amusing. They deliberately poked fun at Anime stereotypes and I got a good chuckle out of it. This looks like a genuine attempt to turn Wolverine into an action Anime, and that hurts my soul. I think I may have to go cut myself now.

Crosswordssays...

Wow, I was all prepared to upvote, but, um no... There is some precedent for wolverine being in japan and fighting ninjas, but who the fuck is that tall skinny 'bishonen' and what is he doing with wolverine's claws?
