| Audit Report of GONZO CanceledAccording to Investor Relations released by GONZO, the auditor of GONZO canceled the release of the audit report for the fiscal year 2008 because they strongly doubted the retainment of GONZO to be a going concern. GONZO will be ousted from the stock market soon. The auditor pointed out that: 1. The amount of debts of GONZO has been in excess of their total asset for two years. 2. Some of the debts borrowed from the banks are overdue. 3. The restructuring plan presented by GONZO is unreliable. GONZO stated that the good sales of "Strike Witches" and "Afro Samurai" contributed to the improvement of the operating income.

| [New Shakugan no Shana Anime in Development RevealedThe July issue of ASCII MediaWorks’ Dengeki Bunko Magazine will reveal on June 10 that the “Shana Project is restarting” with a “new anime in development” for Shakugan no Shana.

The magazine will also reportedly announce that the second television anime season based on Y?saku Igarashi’s Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu otaku romance comedy light novel will premiere in October. ------------------------------------------------------ 18-Meter ‘Life-size’ Gundam Statue Nears CompletionThe Mainichi Shimbun paper’s Mantan Web section and the BBC have both posted images of the 18-meter-tall (about 59-feet-tall), “life-size” Gundam statue as it nears completion for its July unveiling. (In BBC’s linked page, select the fourth image from the left in the bottom menu.) The statue marks the 30th anniversary of the first anime series in the Mobile Suit Gundam space war anime franchise. The Yahoo! Japan website now has six videos dedicated to the making of this statue. (The videos require Microsoft’s Silverlight browser plugin.) The latest videos focus on the “armor” on the statue and the coloring. Starting this July, the statue will be available for free public viewing for two months at the Shiokaze Park on Tokyo’s artificial Odaiba island. The theme of the three-phase Mobile Suit Gundam 30th Anniversary Project is “Always Beginning.” The life-size Gundam represents the “Real G” phase of the project, while this August’s Gundam Big Expo convention represents the “Feel G” phase. “Soul G” will be a collaborative music event planned for the Gundam franchise this year. An anime adaptation of Harutoshi Fukui’s Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn novels and a film version of Sunrise’s Mobile Suit Gundam 00 television anime series were both announced earlier this year. thats all for now until more The latest topic you posted concerning anime news has been merged with this topic.
