Daily Anime: “PostHuman” Cartoon Looks Like a 6-Minute Orgasm for Otakus (NSFW)
Despite its short length, the 6-minute film “PostHuman” — a sci fi mini-epic brought to the masses by Humoring the Fates Animation Studio – looks all kinds of kick-ass.
Maybe that’s because the short looks to be in the vein of Spriggan and some of the more recently produced Katsuhiro Otomo (Akira, Steamboy) stuff, and maybe that’s because HTF is semi-revered in the Anime industry for producing some truly epic commercials for clients as diverse as Nike, Mattel, and Microsoft.
The movie will feature, amongst others, the legendary anime voice over skills of Ulric Dihle and Battlestar Galactica‘s Tricia Helfer and if you happen to be in Austin for the Fantastic Fest (running), then you’ll be able to catch it in its entirety at the Drawn and Quartered Animated Shorts Festival later this month. Via Twitchfilm comes the press release for the short — If this doesn’t get you revved up, maybe the trailer below will. NSFW (boobage, violence, gunplay, and more boobage).
“PostHuman follows Terrence and his dog Nine in an adrenalized future of espionage, super science, and assassins.
Terrence agrees to help Kali, an escaped test subject from a black ops ESP test lab, in her effort to free the last surviving imprisoned test subject.The assault on the lab is fast paced and intense as Terrence uses every hacker trick he knows to destroy the lab’s defenses and give Kali the opportunity to free her tortured lab mate, Benjamin.
Gritty, hyperstylized, and dripping with intense images, PostHuman is NSFW, for children, or adults with no sense of adventure.”
