Mugen Kouro

The software developers Platinum Games and Sega have scheduled their Mugen Kōro - Infinite Space science-fiction roleplaying game for the Nintendo DS portable console next spring and announced the October launch of animated short films for the project. The game centers around Yūrī, a young man who journeys across lawless space and becomes a spaceship captain. The animation studios GONZO and Production I.G are producing short movies to promote the game and develop its world and storyline. The first of the movies will premiere at the Tokyo Game Show on October 9 and then will run on the game's official website on October 17.

Mixed Feelings

It's worth noting that I am the first to review this title on MAL. It is my belief that every anime deserves at least one proper review, deserves to have its content engaged and reckoned with. No matter how obscure it is, and no matter how long ago it was made, an anime still represents the creative passion of its creators, the hopes and dreams of the team that made it, and as such, I will give this one a fair and honest accounting here. Interesting series of short animations meant to advertise a video game. They have some cool lines, and the music is ... actually pretty good, but the animation is stilted, and the story doesn't make much sense, though I suppose the games are meant to serve as context for the story. Still, on its own, it doesn't really stand as a cohesive work. One can grasp the story, sure, but not why any of it is happening, or why we should care. Paired with the awkward delivery of some lines, it comes out to an underwhelming result.
