Type Moon visual novel derived anime Canaan is set to receive a three part cinematic adaptation set to air in October.
However, rather than be another piece of the mixed media franchise centered on the hugely successful Wii visual novel 428 (soon to be released on other platforms), the production will instead merely repackage the 13-part anime for theater going audiences, a move which few fans are excited about.

It is not like we don't know what will happen, I mean, every Type-Moon visual novel anime I have seen ends with the heroine dead and usually the "hero" without the girl he actually liked.
Kara no Kyoukai, Kokutou married Shiki. Tsukihime, Shiki still has a relationship with Arcueid. Fate, Shirou and Rin pretty much have a good end depending on the route
Argh, you beat me to it.
so what is Canaan all about anywho if anyone can fill me in on it?
Is this the same artist who did Gunslinger Girl, or am I just dumb?
This is going to be... great! Well after all, I am a Type-moon Fanboy. haha! Go Canaan!
What a pity! This season has too many movies. I have seen 10+ anime movie news for a few month in this year. orz
Maybe Type-Moon fanboys are loaded ?
Now that you mention it, the Type-Moon fanbase isn't really *that* big (well, at least in anime, but the visual novels, ogod)...
Type-moon and Key are tied as my favorites. Tsukihime blew me away.
I really don't get why they do this. Does it make THAT much money?
*points towards EVA franchize + endless 8
I lol'd at the Endless 8 part. Though Eva is a completely different case.
Gundam... :)
I was pondering on the same question as well.
sounds good, but isnt the anime still just coming out ? O o
It will only take total of 13 weeks to air.
Yeah, same here. I'm also curious about this. Maybe TypeMoon wants to make Canaan as their latest masterpiece & make it more famous??
ozums!!!
serie very recommended ;)
yata ne!
Sounds fine to me.
Even though Canaan has not stopped looking like a Taipu Muun redux of Burst Angel so far.
And since I'm just going to watch the fansubbed 720p/1080p rip anyway, I see no problem with there being more.
As long as this series doesn't get into Burst Angel style quality, I'm totally OK with that.
Guess I wasn't the only one who saw that similarity.
Turning 13 episodes into 3 movies is actually pretty good IMHO, as long as they don't expect people to buy both (personally, I'd prefer the movies). And especially since it's apparently going to be in theaters; if this was the US, I'd say it would increase the audience — dunno about Japan.
I'm thinking more along the line of Bee Train's girls with guns anime...
Pic from Takashi Takeuchi FTW! Get!
Pistol appears to be a Heckler and Koch HK45. The chunky olive frame is a dead giveaway.
For you types that can take their eyes off the A-cups.
sorry tex anon is right
Meh, I'll live.
That's a girl?
It's a Beretta Px4. I think the closeups in the ED should clear this up.
