Trailers and cover-art for UK's Paprika and Tekkon Kinkreet	Thu, 13 Sep 2007
Sony Pictures have given us a heads up on two of their upcoming anime DVD releases, both due out on 24th September; Paprika is the latest animated movie from the one-and-only Satoshi Kon. Quite possibly his most beloved work yet, Paprika looks as disturbing and mind-bending as Paranoia Agent and Perfect Blue, and as emotional and outright beautiful as Millennium Actress. If you still aren't convinced, take a look at the trailer or gorge on the beautiful DVD cover art. Tekkonkinkreet (a.k.a Black & White) is the newest movie animated by Studio 4C, arguably the most exciting - and certainly the most experimental - animation studio working in Japan today. The story is based on a manga from the masterful Taiyou "Ping Pong" Matsumoto and is said to combine the unique visual style of Studio 4C with the cathartic character drama of Matsumoto's manga. Of course, if you won't take my word for it - stream the trailer (featuring a song from Asian Kung-fu Generation) and view the cover art. Related: Paprika, Tekkon Kinkreet
