#Mamoru Oshii Wants to Do "Girl-Meets-Girl" in Serious Way in His New Anime VLADLOVE

 

 

Along with a new key visual and an official PV introducing its main characters, Ichigo Animation has released a comment from Mamoru Oshii (Mobile Police PatlaborGhost in The Shell), who serves as the executive director for the upcoming 12-episode slapstic fantasy anime VLADLOVE.

 

 

Comment from Mamoru Oshii:

 

I wanted to do "Girl-Meets-Girl" in a serious way. It's about human connection. That's why it's "blood." There are some words, such as "blood ties" and "friends by blood," but I wanted to do a story about blood seriously. So it's "vampire." Sucking blood might be a symbolic act, but in many ways, I wanted to make it a "blood" story symbolically. And dealing with vampires is a story about a different culture at the same time. It's a different culture, the so-called "Jingai" (Inhuman Existence). They are human, but not human. They are the sacrifice for someone else as a kind of fate, and they also are the existence that can only be lived at the expense of someone else. It's a story of an encounter with such a different kind of being and how they are connected. When it comes to the story of blood, it tends to be dark and gloomy, but I wanted to do it in a rather lighthearted way.

Instead, she suddenly starts trashing the blood bank. The girl then loses consciousness and so Mitsugu takes her home…
