Okay, this looks really fucking awesome. I've seen two other Studio 4°C films, and they were both amazing (Mind Game, and Princess Arete)

They aren't typical anime at all. They're very intelligent, entertaining, and well told. This movie looks no different, but has the advantage of really asskicking animation.

Baugh that website hates me.

Be My Head:
There's another trailer up on youtube with some Russian rap song.

Also: a plot summary from wikipedia...


--- Quote ---First Squad (Japanese: ファーストスクワッド Fāsuto sukuwaddo, Russian: Пе́рвый отря́д, Perviy otryad) is a joint animation project of Japan's Studio 4°C and Russian authors with Molot Entertainment.

Set during the opening days of World War II on the Eastern Front. Its main cast are a group of Soviet teenagers with extraordinary abilities; the teenagers have been drafted to form a special unit to fight the invading German army. They are opposed by a Schutzstaffel (SS) officer who is attempting to raise from the dead a supernatural army of crusaders from the 12th-century Order of the Sacred Cross and enlist them in the Nazi cause.

In Soviet Russia, disbelief suspends you.


In all seriousness, this looks pretty fuckin rad, although with such a plot I would like you to define what "intelligent" means in this case.

JD:
Yeah the plot sounds really silly. Supernatural this, supernatural that.
