  • The New Series from Sunrise Will Be Streaming One Day After Its Initial Airing in Japan!
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE March 29, 2013 Aniplex of America has acquired the New Animated Series Valvrave the Liberator ©SUNRISE/VVV Committee, MBS The New Series from Sunrise will be streaming one day after its initial airing in Japan! SANTA MONICA, CA (March 29, 2013) – Recently at their industry panel at Sakura-con in Seattle, Aniplex of America Inc. announced the acquisition of Valvrave the Liberator, created by Sunrise studio (Cowboy Bebop, Mobile Suit Gundam), and that the series will be streaming online. Valvrave the Liberator will be available one day after its initial airing in Japan. Set in a world where 70% of the human population lives in space, Valvrave the Liberator follows the story of a high school student named Haruto. Haruto is a kind young man who hates fighting, but all that will change as his peaceful town will be invaded by a military force. Everything will change once Haruto’s encounter with a mysterious humanoid weapon called Valvrave. A synopsis on Valvrave the Liberator: A new age where 70% of the human population lives in space thanks to the development of “Dyson Sphere”, a city in space. The world is divided into two main powers: The Dorrssia Military Pact Federation, a power which grew out of a military alliance, and the Atlantic Rim United States (ARUS), which grew in power as it expanded its trade agreements. The minor nation of JIOR has declared neutrality between these two forces and maintains its peace through economic prosperity. Within the JIOR’s Sphere, Haruto Tokishima lived an ordinary life as a high school student in the division known as “Module 77”-until the Dorssian military begins their sudden invasion! But the whole world will be shaken when Haruto meets the mysterious humanoid weapon, Valvrave! “Valvrave the Liberator is an exciting new series that fans have been looking forward to watching” says Hideki Goto, the president of Animation Business of Aniplex of America.

  • Cool Japan Fund Inc
    Press Release Cool Japan Fund Inc. Tokyo, October 30, 2014 Investing in the platform for Internet Streaming and e-commerce business for official Japanese anime content Cool Japan Fund today announced the decision to invest 1 billion yen in a project to develop the platform for internet streaming and e-commerce business for official Japanese anime content, established by a consortium including BANDAI NAMCO Holdings Inc. (BANDAI NAMCO), ASATSU-DK INC. (ADK), and Aniplex Inc. (Aniplex). Through this project, Cool Japan Fund aims to increase the number of overseas fans of Japanese anime and to support the expansion and development of the animation industry in overseas markets through distribution of official Japanese anime content and anime-related goods. Anime, a representation of Japanese pop culture, has acquired a great number of fans around the world. However, the lack of licensed content distribution initiative and the prevalence of piracy activities are causing issues with expanding the anime and anime-related industries in overseas markets. For expansion of the anime-related business overseas, BANDAI NAMCO, ADK, and Aniplex have agreed to found a new company called Anime Consortium Japan Inc., which will be integrated with DAISUKI Inc. (See note 1), a company that operates internet streaming and e-commerce business platform for official Japanese anime content. Cool Japan Fund has decided to support the new integrated initiative, and to invest 1 billion yen.
