Let’s see, first we got a music video; song created by Ryo with a very beautiful artwork by Huke, then next up is the epic figurine (Which unfortunately got delayed till October.. -_-;; ), which spawned another one (No details yet.).. And now, both Ryo and Huke have joined forces with Ordet to create a B★RS Anime Project, or more known as the “Black Rock Shooter Pilot Animation Project”..
Truly an interesting topic to pick up, B★RS has been talked about quite recently, with 2 figurines of her (Original and Alternate ver.) already made and showcased (Not yet released.).. But this… This is just taking it to a whole new level~
From DannyChoo:
Big Boss Aki at GSC already showed the BRS video to some of us at the Tokyo Figure Show and I can tell you the anination quality is truly incredible.
The pilot edition will be out in September on DVD and is a short intro to something bigger ^o^
Well, here are some preview pics from the Pilot Project itself~
Epic battle should be epic indeed, especially if its between B★RS and DeadMaster (DM).
DeadMaster seriously looks similar to Beatrice from Umineko no Naku Koro ni..
Well, for those who don’t know who is Ordet, it is a company established by Yukata Yamamoto.. They were involved in animes like Kannagi, Shakugan no Shana 2nd Season and SketchBook.. The details and the quality of the animation is superb, judging from the preview shots themselves.. XD
Apart from that, I’ve got so questions to ask about the anime itself.. Why does the main character have such a short ponytail/twintail hair? How the heck did the B★RS logo appears at the sky? How epic will the animation be?? o.O
Here are some of the info I’ve managed to dig out..

EDIT: TheFuzzy HIJACK
Here’s a low-quality preview of the pilot video which aired at this year’s Animelo Summer Live, just to give you a feel on how promising this is.
Think it’ll be the next big thing? I’ll be updating the video above with any other higher-quality one I can find, so stay tuned!

Yay.
But you didn’t say that the closeup picture of BRS was damn cute.
.-= NanoPulp´s last blog ..Family Picture =-.
Updated the post with a video, for those of you desperate enough for a preview.
But seriously though, where does the protagonist get the twintails?
Also, at least we know what her left-handed weapon is: a heavy machine-gun.
wait, wat, not beam or bomb or something that goes “DOKKAN~”????
lol anyway I can’t wait to see it! x3
.-= Kazearashi´s last blog ..BLACK★ROCK SHOOTER Animation Project Preview =-.
Not gattling gun meh?
A Gatling gun spins. Her weapon just…fires the bullets from nowhere.
I think the little girl IS BRS, and when she sees the symbol she…becomes BRS? I don’t really know lol. But I’m really excited for it <33
The animation for this is GORGEOUS. And I'm super glad that BRS gets a little show thing. Hopefully itll be subbed. Well, no doubt it'll be subbed.
.-= Julia´s last blog ..[Made a blog. GO visit.] =-.
Yeah, leave it to the *cough* fansubbers *cough*.
But I wonder what the OP and ED will be though. Surely it can’t be the same song…?
Oh I hope not. As much as I love the BRS song, That’d be over kill.
ALSO: The friend in the picture with the girl w/ the guitar, looks like she has DM’s hair :0!!
.-= Julia´s last blog ..[Animal Crossing Requests] =-.
Yeah, it looks like they’re gonna do the “Aren’t you my friend? Why are we fighting?” storyline.
Assuming of course it’s the only storyline…
So I was just cruising wikipedia and noticed the same guy that is responsible for turning so many people away from Lucky Star is going to be directing this, Ordet is his company.
I have seen many comments from people complaining the first episode of Lucky Star is boring and therefore labelled it as an undesirable show. How were these people supposed to know they should have used episode 5 as a taster before making a decision?
Hopefully this series will have a more attention-grabbing first episode than Lucky Star did. I remember almost falling asleep for that one. XD
I wonder if the BRS character will be a playable character in Namco Bandai’s God Eater for PSP? I still don’t understand the whole BRS song thing and God Eater isn’t my type of game so this is probably a misinformed assumption. As a bystander at least the colors/stages and weapons are somewhat similar.
Wait, where did you make this connection?
They both feature lone fighters with swords and guns in dark environments?
Is there a website that has the movie? Like anilinkz maybe?
