Japanese electronics giant NEC has previewed a phone that is an exact replica of the ones that are being used by the main characters in penis exposure anime Eden of the East.
In the series, the “Noblesse Oblige” phone is used by the Seleção to contact Juiz, for the purpose of carrying out their orders. The NEC rendition is a faithful recreation of just this fictional model (though with the likely ommision of secret organisations).
Not much more information was released by NEC, but it seems likely that using the song “Falling Down” as a ringtone is optional.
With the recently announced NERV keitai featuring in the upcoming Evangelion movie, might we expect even more anime-phone tie-ins?
There has already been talk of otaku buying up the same model that K-ON!’s Mio has been identified as using, so the opening seems to be there…

Does it come with free 10 billion yen credit? XD
Any specs on the phone available (in English)?
Looks like a good replacement for my crappy N-Gage. =)
Actually thought about buying a new phone cuz my current one is starting to malfunction. Wonder if any store that get this, would ship to Europe.
I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE, OH GOD
I want this!!
That phone has to be the collist phone EVER. Much better then the eva phone.
Hah! When you posted the "NERV phone" news, I was so expecting this one.
"...."
So, does it come with $80m available?
When will it release?I want it so much ><
Fuck i came. This actually looks good.
And also i just noticed there were other writers here.
I wish that we can call Juiz on that 8DDDD
Never watched EoE but this phone looks awesome. Do fucking want
Hope that phone comes out in Europe soo I will buy one
Orders received. Noblesse Oblige.
I hope so too. I it doesnt im just going to import one.
WHOA SHIT ~!
DO WANT
Here is link for the "eden of the east " phone.
http://www.animenews.biz/nec-to-launch-cellphone-as-eden-of-the-east-tie-in.html
It tells you about the phone, but does have a release date yet.
NO release date!
Please continue being an awesome cell phone.
"HENSHIN~~!!!"
Yes, I definitely do want!
friggin cant find shyt abt this phone...
its as shady as the selacao business..
Damn, if they ever release it, I will buy it. If it wasn't made to work anywhere other than japan, I'll fucking go to a chinese store and REPLACE the insides so that I can use it in N.America.
of course, reprogramming stuff is preferred or somehow.
the only thing this phone is missing is a biometric scanner built in.
Any more news on this?
Thats what im trying to find out but from the japanese website of the company i cant find out the eta.
How about now?
I Can call Juiz? *-*
I wonder if they have the prepaid version of the phone, too. If they have, I would SO buy one.
i want this for my boyfriend. he loved EoE ^^
SCREW THE IPHONE 4. HOLY SHIT, I WANT THIS ONE!
Hi !
I'm french, and I sell this mobile !
I have it since one year !
It works in all around the world !
But it has not 10 billion yen credit ! xD
And no juiz.. Sorry !
If you want more information this is my mail : c.massie06@gmail.com
I wonder if this comes with browsing capabilities......
then i would kill to buy it. Even if it didn't i would still buy it though
AWESOMNESS!
How Cost the Eden of the East Phone?
And who can buy it?
Can this Phone Import to Germany?
So pretty.
Has there been any news as to who's going to be the network provider?
Because now that I'm watching the anime, I really want the cellphone （^ω^）
With this phone, instead of Good Bye, I would end my calls with "Noblesse Oblige". That would be epic.
The cell might get a low sale as EOTE is not too much of an anime really.
And I guess your definition of anime is Naruto?
Try reading japanese boards and you will realise that many fans loved it.
All of the Japanese carriers have announced their Summer device lineup and not one has featured this phone, leading me to conclude that NEC has no plans to actually release the phone at this time.
They may release the phone during the Fall season, but that would hinge on the demand for the device within Japan, as its being pitched for motorcyclists, not EotE fans.
Fair enough, but I'm quite sure that the percentage of EotE fans buying it would far outrank the motorcyclists buying it.
Thats an awesome looking phone. Way better than that stupid Evangelion phone.
Juiz, get me that phone!
DO WANT!!!
I never thought that I would be so impressed by a phone... damn this one is just so AWESOME !
I'm sure theres a penis cutting app but, does it come with any apps for bird watching?
Omg I want it.... I want it so bad... Gawd I wish Japanese phones were easier to use in the UK...:sob:
is there more information regarding the price, release date and aviablilty to english speaking users?
MUST HAVE
DO FUCKING WANT!!!
Best idea ever. Period! XD
Cool, my next cellphone. Do want.
This phone is made of awesome. Do want
comes with 12 color schemes?
I knew it! I want it, regardless whether it works here or not.
OH GOD I WANT IT
omg that's an awesome phone
Noblese 'fucking' oblige!
Gawd I always wanted to have that phone since the first time I saw its anime counterpart.
Don't know if want..
This is what you call HOT STUFF!!! This gadget replicas are becoming ultimately popular this days... esp. with the rise of those NERV gadgets on the market
FREAKIN' SWEEEEEET!!!!!! Dear Santa-san...
OOh I forgot this wasn't put up in here yet.
Anyways anyone knows which phone model Yui uses instead? xD
looks too out-of-the-cereal box for my taste.
On a side note, I'm really curious about this anime is about, except for the fact that I have a hard time figuring out what it is about. Usually when I want to watch a show, I'll be pretty certain what I'm getting myself into, not this one though...
Well, no one's really sure what they're watching, either.
Cut off Johnnies
want must have how much don't care if it dosn't work in us MUST HAVE AWESOMENESS.
now if only they came charged with 10 billion yen.
no, but they could have a marketing gemic that 1 of the phones came with 1000.00 and when you hun up on a call juies would tell you to continue being a mesia
That was the first thing I thought.
Is this a limited edition? I like the Eva phone more (being a fan), but the avalibility will determine which one to get.
lol
first thing a weaboo would ask, is it limited edition.
so... is there a limited edition? :3
Why am I a weaboo? If it's not LE means I have a better chance of getting it, not being in Japan.
Obviously you didn't choose the Comprehension perk, being of low intelligence and all.
uh oh, weaboo rage!
because it's a really nice paperweight, DUH.
Why would you want a fancy paperweight if you're not in Japan?
yeah same here. honestly though if i can find both ill end up with both. i think id use this one more unless the eva phones features are far better.
awesomeness!!!!
i would buy one.
It seems like a subtle route for power level at first, but I'm sure it'd draw questions asking you to explain your odd phone...
if people ask about the phone, just tell them you are continuing to be a messiah.
And he'll answer: Noblesse Oblige Nr. 630475
That phone has a very nice style, you could whip it out and look like an snob from the future rather than an otaku, hell add a leather strap and a bolt here and there and it would look steam-punkish, though that would ruin its original porpouse.
no, you would still look like an otaku loser.
Though I'm sure it'll end up Japan-only.
Kick. Ass.
Fuck, i want one !
Fuck, I want one too !
Juiz, get me the phone right this moment and make sure it's usable in my country!
Holy shit, it looks like Glitch from reboot... I can't believe I know this shit...
Oh yes i want one ^_^
I'm not an EotE watcher, but the phone looks cool.
I'd buy one if:
(a) it worked in America, and,
(b) I could easily change the display to show the logo of my _own_ secret organization (I'd have to make one up).
can i use it to cut the dicks off all first post failures?
Their epenises have been cut off.
ok guys, enough with the penis, i'm sure we've all seen episode 6 of eden of the east
your monster cocks should be cut, leave the world with only small cock guys LOLz!
I L'dMAO
Noblesse Oblige, cutting off penises tonight, too.
Noblesse Oblige, please continue to be a penis-chopping messiah.
jesus was that meant to be a pun? i better chop your cock off too
Noblesse obliged.. penis has been "cut"
Only if they name the phone the "Johnny Snipper"
I'd go with,"Off, with your little willy!"
No. 'The Silver Cutter' is more appropriate
i know its random but how does jues think he is bad when she is serving ppl lik that creepy chick ,
she will never have my johney!!!!
Give me the link to buy phone.... mine....
I would buy this phone without a second though, I dont care how much it would cost...
But what network is it with?
Hmm Functions???
@Nandaka: That would certainly make it hard for those phone to do international roaming. Also HSDPA are usually for internet, IE: data access through the 3G network, as for normal data (only voice for example) the GSM is still more than enough.
I believe NEC cellphones work with sim cards, which would mean it works out of the box in American networks (or WILL work eventually, when someone hacks it.), but I'm not sure if this specific model does.
They need to learn something that is called "Sim Card"
haha...
I thought Japanese use their own propertiary signal, not GSM. And they are now moving to 3G network (HSPDA) which is the same with other country(i.e. iPhone).
And you can always 'jailbreak' any phone, just wait and see
You can lock phones which use SIMs too, you know.
Yea most NEC Cellphones work with Sim cards and are often tri or even quad band. This means they actually should work in every land you may think of. But what about the Language support, I hope it supports english.
Japanese GSM network only. YOu need to hack the phone if you want to use it under your country network
Japan does not have a GSM network.
