The truth is, we have a local channel called “Animax”, and…I think last month they premiered Full Metal Alchemist the show. The advertising that went into that was a little “big” since it was featured in local magazines (Otaku-zines, local game magazines, TV Guides). I’m now wondering whether something like Robotech will receive the same treatment! :(
I just wish though… that the whole promise of a “big” marketing push is fulfilled, I may live in Asia, but it would be so nice to see Internet TV spots, features, commercials, cellphone/Flash games, web-comics - not just wallpapers!
Of course, since HG wants to reach a new audience for this feature film, IT IS REQUIRED, and if I see them not producing anything in the next 2 weeks, then I think this whole thing is a charade worse than any april fool joke. >:o
