Discotek Media has released in the US the first ever edition of ROBOT CARNIVAL (ロボットカーニバル) in 4K UHD Blu-ray format. Previously released on Blu-ray in the US, as a widescreen, high-definition presentation created from the original film materials, this new edition also includes the 4:3 version of the movie for the first time ever. Unfortunately the three wide screen presentations included in the previous Blu-ray, art galleries and standard definition content were left out due to the lack of compatibility with the UHD blu-ray format.

●ANNOUNCEMENT● OTOMO THE COMPLETE WORKS homepage renew


The official OTOMO-COMPLETE home page was renewed and a new OTOMO logo was introduced while more information about the third and fourth books to be published on March 18, 2022  as volumes 2 and 22 has been posted on the Amazon Japan pre-order page. 

Vol. 2: BOOGIE WOOGIE WALTZ
This book will collect 15 short manga works created by Katsuhiro Otomo from 1974 to 1976 when he was 20 to 22 years old. Most of the stories were previously collected in a book under the same title: BOOGIE WOOGIE WALTZ published by Kitansha in 1982. This books as well as GOOD WEATHER were distributed only by mail order at that time, and were rarely available at bookstores, so it was difficult to obtain them for a long time.

In this new edition however, the works ONE DOWN and KAGAMI JIGOKU (鏡地獄), a short story of Edogawa Ranpo (江戸川 乱歩) drawn by Otomo in the fore-mentioned period and that were not collected in the original book will be included in this one. In addition, a phantom last page of MEZAMEYO TO YOBU KOE ARI (目覚めよと呼ぶ声あり) that was omitted in both the original publication and the book will be published for the first time in this book.

●ANNOUNCEMENT● OTOMO THE COMPLETE WORKS Reservations Start!

Katsuhiro Otomo has announced  in the Otomo Zenshu twitter and instagram accounts and in the official OTOMO-COMPLETE website, accompanied with a new illustration, that the reservations of his upcoming COMPLETE WORKS started today nationwide in Japanese book stores.

Otomo himself previously tweeted that starting on January 21st, two books will be released every other month and that works will be printed in a B5 variant, 248 x 172mm size. The first printing will include a newly designed sticker.

The first two books to be published on January 21, 2022 by Kodansha will be volumes 8 and 21:

Vol. 8: DŌMU (童夢) 
The title selected to inaugurate OTOMO THE COMPLE WORK is DŌMU (童夢), a manga work that was first published in four parts in magazine format and later collected as a book that after 60 editions has been discontinued for over 20 years now.

In this new edition, the image quality has been improved by the newly created version from the original artwork and the print quality has been significantly improved by the quality of the paper that has been carefully selected. In addition, the title page covers, which were not collected in the book, and the bi-tonal original images have been recovered. The illustrations that Otomo had envisioned for the book covers have also been reproduced and a new commentary by Otomo closes the book. The format is a B5 variant size (248 x 172mm).

Vol.21: Animation AKIRA Storyboards 1
This book is the first volume out of two, of a huge amount of storyboards drawn by Otomo himself during the production process of  the anime version o AKIRA. Originally published also as two separate volumes by the editorial department of Young Magazine in 1988, both volumes AKIRA E-KONTE 1 (アキラ 絵コンテ集 1) and AKIRA E-KONTE 2 (アキラ 絵コンテ集 2) have been out of print for a long time and are difficult to obtain these days.

Storyboards are often thought of as rough blueprints, but the precision of the AKIRA storyboards is something else. Otomo drew them around 1987 when he was in the middle of the serialization of the fifth volume of the manga AKIRA. Work that he had to interrupt for 17 months to fully focus on the production of the movie version.

AKIRA storyboards are drawn with the tension of the serialization period and the dynamic feeling of the characters are at a level comparable to the main story of the manga. This book collects the  first half, parts  A and B  out of the four parts, A, B, C, and D that the movie is formed of. This large volume of nearly 500 pages is like reading the movie, the animation will be reproduced in the readers brain just by looking at it providing a unique insight to Otomo's animation production techniques.

●CD●ROUJIN Z Soundtrack (老人Z サウンドトラック) 30th Anniversary

ROUJIN Z (老人Z ) Soundtrack was released with the latest remastered sound source in High Quality Blu-spec CD2, a new format from SONY compatible with regular CD readers that delivers better performance. This release celebrates the 30th anniversary of the animation film directed by Hiroyuki Kitakubo (北久保 弘之)  with an original story and screenplay by Katsuhiro Otomo, who also worked as mecha designer. Otomo's friend manga artist Hisashi Eguchi (江口寿史) was in charge of character design and the cover art illustration. Released in September 1991, the film won the Mainichi Film Award for Best Animation Film (毎日映画コンクールアニメーション映画賞) that year.

In charge of the music was Bun Itakura (板倉文), the leader of bands such as CHAKRA (チャクラ) and KILLING TIME (キリング・タイム). The soundtrack that includes various genres such as industrial techno, ethnic, and contemporary music, is sometimes boldly edited, giving off a charm that is independent to the movie. The ending theme song is sung by Mishio Ogawa (小川美潮), a close friend from the CHAKRA days. 

The album was also released for the first time in analog format,  pressed as a transparent red vinyl. The CD includes a miniature version of the booklet included in the LP with interviews with Katsuhiro Otomo, Hisashi Eguchi, Hiroyuki Kitakubo and Bun Itakura

●EXHIBITION● AKIRA ART OF WALL




Today opened to the public the SHIBUYA PARCO exhibition that will take place from November 22 to December 16 at Shibuya’s PARCO MUSEUM TOKYO and from November 22 to December 8 at GALLERY X, showcasing the collages created by Kosuke Kawamura (河村康輔) using the images from Katsuhiro Otomo's manga AKIRA. This collages originally covered the 63 meters of the construction site where Shibuya PARCO was being rebuild from May 2017 to August 2019.

OFFICIAL EXHIBITION INTRODUCTION
This exhibition, AKIRA ART OF WALL is a collaboration between the collage artist, Kosuke Kawamura and Katsuhiro Otomo, the author of one of the most celebrated cartoon, AKIEA.

AKIRA is a story set in 2019, a year before the 2020 Tokyo olympics. Kawamura used some images from the cartoon to create some collages, which was shown on a temporary barricade at construction site in Shibuya for 2 years and 3 months as, 'Ast wall (temporary barricade).

Being that the 'Art Wall' functioned as a temporary construction barricade this year in 2019, these two were put together, including documentation of original works of AKIRA. We hope to give a glimpse of the time and city, symbolizing one of the most iconic manga history.
