From Animeigo! College student Kubo, feeling a vague dissatisfaction with the way his life is going in 1982, runs into Tanaka, an old friend from high school and anime junkie. Finding a new purpose in life in the way of otaku (anime fan), Kubo decides he will become the ultimate otaku, OtaKing! With a sharp eye towards self-parody, this unusual youth ensemble drama lovingly depicts the unique passion for anime of the period, and is also seen as a semi-autobiography of the production house GAINAX and those who founded it. Approximate running time: 100 minutes. Release Date: March, 2002. NOTE: This item may be available through other retail outlets before shipping to comic book specialty shops. |
