As Promare is starting to reach over more and more countries’ theaters ( as a limited release only sadly ), there is still one country that holds a major place in Trigger’s worldwide fanbase that has yet to see the movie : America ! Even though Promare is soon going to heat up ( no puns intended ) Uncle Sam’s country thanks to distributor GKIDS ( which even better has an English dub unlike other countries who only have the Japanese dub ), there hasn’t been this much talk about Promare from a critical perspective. And they managed to pull it brilliantly well. With the help of Sanzigen, the animation company that handled the CGI in Kill la Kill and the financial support from co-producer XFlag ( Monster Strike ), the core animation team composed of several veteran Gainax animators, was able to greatly extend on the 3D sequences from KLK into a full-fledged play-zone of esthetic experimentations. Well the answer is simple : by adding a lot of VFX while keeping intact the trademark animation style from Trigger.

Now when anime purists hears out the word “ 3D CGI “ including the hardcore Trigger fanbase, a feeling of doubt starts to arose even from the most confident fans : how would Trigger succeed right where many anime movies and series failed regarding the combination of CGI with hand-drawn 2D animation ? To do so, an important decision had to be taken : mix 2D and 3D animation.
It’s with those qualities that those two series have reached a cult following and established the duo’s reputation as we know it today.ġ2 years after Gurren Lagann and 6 years after Kill la Kill, it was time for the lovely pair alongside Trigger to try something new in a time where movies like Spider Man : Into The Spider Verse offered an artistic breath of fresh air. Obviously, when hearing out those names, you immediately have in mind a top-notch and recognizable animation style, an orgasmic soundtrack, deep storylines coupled with its cast of surprisingly lovable characters, antagonists to love hating on, and above all powerful action sequences that always evolve in the most uncharted direction you’d possibly imagine. If you’ve been following the news from the anime industry lately, one of the most highly anticipated animes of this year was Studio Trigger’s first feature film Promare, which marks the return of the famed duo composed of director Hiroyuki Imaishi and screenwriter Kazuki Nakashima, the pair of masterminds who brought us some of the most memorable anime of the past decade with Gurren Lagann and Kill la Kill. Now on to a thread that I promised to write for quite some time now ( those who regularly pass by the GAF Discord should know what I’m talking about ) and finally managed to pull out another early movie review, but not just any movie : we’re *shocker* going to talk about Promare this time. If you happen to be a fan of Trigger’s work, be sure to pass by the Promare Hell server, you will not regret it believe me ! And if you are a guest user that makes part of the server and happens to read this thread right now, I’d just want to say thank you for the “ heartwarming “ reception and the many enjoyable discussions I have had the honor to be part of.
This thread was written, with the lovely members from this Discord server and the Trigger enthusiasts here on GAF in mind, by a fan not only for the fans, but also for those who are looking for something new in the anime discussion and stumbled across this thread out of curiosity. And I would have perhaps never engaged myself to write such a lengthy thread on Promare if I haven’t witnessed the blooming passion of all its members there, which truly motivated me to write an elaborated thread that really lived up to the interest spawned by Promare and Studio Trigger over the past few years. Thank you so much !Īnd I would also like to give a special shoutout to the Promare Hell Discord server whom a member from the prominent leaker Sabi’s discord server which I also turn out to be part of has recommended me to join. And for this I will eternally be grateful to you GAF. First off, I’d like to thank all of you again for the overwhelming positive response to my PT thread, I didn’t expect to be given two times a month of Gold ! Your support helps me want to continue making quality threads that always seeks to share an honest and sane-reasoned analysis on subjects that deserves to be given it’s fair share of spotlight.
