bsu legato Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 From Anime News Network: At C3 X HOBBY 2006 (also called Chara Hobby) in Japan, Ryosuke Takahahi, director of the Votoms series, announced today that he will direct a new Votoms series in 2007. Let me be the first to say "holy crap!" I never expected this series to claw its way out of the distant 80's. Even if the show doesn't focus on Chirico again, I hope it doesn't succumb to the current trend in self-hating, mopey, angst-filled heroes. Votoms should be about kicking ass and taking names. (be warned, I'm sure there will be CG Votoms appearing in the new show. OMGWTF) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gerwalk25 Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Sweet. Hopefully Takara/Tomy will make new Microman figures and AT's for the new series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
promethuem5 Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Hell yeah! VOTOMS is a rediculously badass series (I'm working my way thru the CPM DVDs right now...) and I can't wait to see more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketchley Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 That would explain why I saw a full-sized model of the stock VOTOMS armoured suit being built by someone here in Japan - seen in the latest issue of Great Mechanics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 After this long, I can't imagine them doing anything other than a re-interpretation of the original series. But who know's, I wouldn't knock it if they picked up where the last one left off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
promethuem5 Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Maybe this will be a wide-spread and successful enough release to warrant all the OVAs being released Stateside with subtitles... I still want to see those so badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Jack Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 I really hope this turns out well. I have been watching the CPM releases as well and have grown to love this show. Hopefully more info will be avalable soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
