Busou Shinki Anime shorts

[rubixbox]

will i be able to get these in america or in english? por que no habla japanese, id even be happy to get these in spanish

With any luck, there will be english subtitles.

[persocomsan]

I doubt Konami would sub them on their own (though it's possible), but if we ask nicely maybe a fansub group would tackle it.

[Caterwaul]

Considering Humikame's involved (and that cute little, heavilly armd anime girls show up), I'll be very surprised if someone doesnt rip andfansub it. Especially considering they're only 4-5 minutes each.

subtitles always distract me, i always end up rewatching the video after ive read them all

Wonfes shinki conference whatsit played a clip? maybe the entire first episode?

It starts out with an Arnval fleeing a Strarf through a narrow somethingorother. Arnval takes a hit, exposes her CSC, one of her wings' engines gets blown up. She falls onto a moving truck and is carried into the city. There's a boy who sees some kids talking about Shinki, tries to talk with them or something, they run off. He wanders by a toy store that sells Shinki, looking in the window at some in the display.

The Arnval is still on top of the truck. It starts moving and she falls off, and two crows fight over her, one dropping her into a park. She lands on a tree branch. The boy is walking through this park, and sees her. He climbs the tree to get her.

Cut away to the Strarf. She's meeting with some scary-looking officials, calls one master. End of clip.


Looks promising. Clip, along with various OP-type movies they showed, reveal a number of things:
Shinki weaponry is live. Shinki take real damage. Shinki have 'smart' AI. They also seem able to process food to some extent, shown by the Arnval licking... something off her finger, that got on her face while she was preparing breakfast.

You've got my attention Xehn. Damn, I wanted to see that! >.< That clip sounds awesome with the way things ended up, but not for Arnval....

I thought it was already established that the ammo was always live? Same with the the full-auto AI bit? Also, that food eating bit that was mentioned peaked my curiosity. Maybe my Renge actually did eat some food O.O....

[Xehn]

I'm not sure if any of that has been established in an explicitly canon fashion, though. I'm not sure if blade's manga counts.

saw the clip aswell, was probably Milk she drank as it was just pouring into a cup of coffee or tea
found it strange that these Shinkis were rogue? probably Arnval trying to escape Strarf and Masters of Frontline perhaps?
cause from what I remember with Battle Masters is the LOVE System sort of Syncs a Shinki and their Master together..
However the show was good stuff and im waiting for more!

[ArcticKitsune]

I'm not sure if any of that has been established in an explicitly canon fashion, though. I'm not sure if blade's manga counts.

Does seeing it in Battle Rondo's OP count or is that ignored? Also, in Battle Master's it was also portrayed in such manners with the personality. They're active 24/7 and appear to go into snooze mode when charging. I'm assuming there is a coding trigger that re-activates the AI program again when charging is complete or interrupted.

As for weapons...you have Shinki's behaving close to how we act and you have...whats her name......Zelnograd cleaning her sniper in one of the BR OP's? But ya, if the Anime Short wants to mention that then we can allow it to? *trying not to raid topics much*

*jealous at those that saw the clip.* You guys better share that clip when you find it! >.<
