Eden of the East Gets Two Theatrical Films Green Lit (courtesy of ANN) http://juiz.jp/blog/ As you all know, the TV series have just come to an end. (Yes, we're a bit sad about it I know) but the good news is, the series isn't quite over as it is, yet. There's gonna be a two-part movie that should follow and the first part is scheduled to premiere on November 28th of this year at Japan. Note: I believe that the first movie is going to be the retelling of the 11-episode TV-series judging from its title. (I'm not 100% certain about it of course) So again, here's what to expect: Movie I - The King of Eden (11/28/2009) Movie II - Paradise Lost (01/-/2010) And so the wait has officially just began... and it's definitely gonna be a long one at that. So prepare yourselves mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually as you deal with the worst kinds of depression and withdrawal episodes. Eden of the East Wiki wrote...The series begins on November 22, 2010 with a missile strike against an uninhabited area of Japan, claiming no victims. This apparent terrorist act is referred to as "Careless Monday" and disregarded by most people. Three months later, in the United States of America, a young Japanese woman named Saki Morimi is visiting Washington D.C. as part of her graduation trip. When she gets into trouble, a mysterious Japanese man, who introduces himself as Akira Takizawa, helps her through it. The man appears to have no memory and is completely naked, carrying only a gun and a cell phone charged with 8.2 billion yen in digital money. (The trailer alone was enough to convince me) This is another upcoming series this spring that I'm highly anticipating. A series based on the original story by its Director, Kenji Kamiyama; produced by Production I.G. - the animation studio that's responsible for bringing us the "Ghost in the Shell" series and many other. (but I'm still a MadHouse fan before anything else) :P If I'm not mistaken, the series should run for just about eleven (11) episodes and is set to premiere on the ninth day of the following month (April 9). Another thing worth mentioning about is the series' OP theme - a song by the "legendary" English rock band, Oasis entitled "Falling Down." (I'm an avid fan) - not really, but I do like their music/sound. Here's the music video of the song(full): More Info http://juiz.jp/special/ (Official Website) - It's a very nice and soothing site, I suggest you check it out as well.

It seemed like the writer definetly did not think out the conclusion or where he wanted to go with the story. The premise was fine and creative, but there wasn't really anything interesting going on after midway through the season.

I honestly didn't start to feel a lack of interest until the second movie.

Spoiler:

Well said. Sums up what I what thinking about the movie as well.
