<B>Q01</B>: Wait a second.  Isn't <I>Animishi</I> something else?!  What's going on here? 
<B>A01</B>: Indeed.  <I>Animishi</I> originally started as a weekly comic idea, based on the horrors in highschool (such as the evil coke machine (Dr. Ekoc), and so on).  The initial name was in Japanese Katakana (before I could read it) and it didn't make any sense.  However, the name stuck.  From there it started to become an epic saga of two friends who had to battle an outragous evil.  You can learn more about their story <A HREF="http://animishi.keenspace.com" TARGET=animishi>on the original ANIMISHI website</A>.   <I>Animishi 2504</I> is a creation of mine that takes everything to the next level.  It's 500 years after the previous story but some of the same elements will be present. <BR><BR>

<B>Q02</B>: How many episodes of <I>Animishi 2504</I> will there be?<BR>
<B>A02</B>: This really depends on a two things.  First it depends on how much people enjoy reading it.  If it's not good for the public then it's not going to go far.  Second, it depends on how I feel about writing more episodes for it and keep it unique and "fun."  For now there will be 5 episodes for season 1.  If you enjoy it, then express your feelings on the <A HREF="http://iyouboushi.proboards3.com/index.cgi?board=animishi" TARGET=MB>Message Board</A> or e-mail me (address can be found in the scripts). <BR><BR>

<B>Q03</B>: Is this <I>Animishi 2</I> that we were told to look forward to?<BR>
<B>A03</B>: No.  This is something completely original.  <BR><BR>

<B>Q04</B>: Are the episodes ever going to be animated?<BR>
<B>A04</B>: That would be awesome.  However, I'm not an animator nor do I know any.  The closest I might get is to have Andy draw it in manga format for me (much like we were working on with the original <I>Animishi</I> story).<BR><BR>

<B>Q05</B>: Wouldn't this work better as live action?<BR>
<B>A05</B>: That would be interesting, to say the least.  I won't say that it isn't possible but when I write the scripts I imagine this as an anime, not as live action.  Some things may not work well with real people but it would still be interesting to see it that way.<BR><BR>


<B>Q06</B>: Can I be the animator/director that helps bring <I>Animishi 2504</I> to life?<BR>
<B>Q06</B>: It's way too early for such things.  If you're truly serious, contact me via the <A HREF="http://iyouboushi.proboards3.com/index.cgi?board=animishi" TARGET=MB>Message Board</A> and we'll talk more.  <BR><BR>
