Studio 4C Goes To War With FIRST SQUAD!
Posted by Todd Brown at 3:25am.
Posted in Trailer Alerts , Animation, Drama, Action, Asia.
A spin on the Russian campaign against Nazi Germany in WWII may not be the sort of fare that you’d expect to see in an anime film from Japan but that’s exactly the territory being mined by much beloved Japanese animation house Studio 4C for it’s film First Squad. Though I don’;t know much about it at the moment it is slated for release in 2009 and the first teaser is already available and looking stellar, not that you’d expect anything less from 4C. Check it out below the break in the Twitch Player.

I’m also a huge fan of Studio 4°C and this again looks very very promising ...
They always seem to come up with new original ideas to further brighten their glorious animation ...
And although I didn’t recognise it in the soundtrack at first ...
Woohoo ! Music by DJ Krush ! ! !

Well, it’s not exactly, or solely, 4°C’s idea – it’s Russian-produced, with a Russian screenplay and voice actors. All I know of it other than that is what a Russian friend of mine told me:
“Everyone was expecting it in 2007, but they were short on money, so people were wondering whether they gonna finish it at all. Well, apparently they will. This was supposed to be the soundtrack in 2007, I don’t know if they kept it… Probably not.”
