Library Wars Short

library wars

Library Wars by Hiro Arikawa has had several incarnations which I hope the North American market will eventually get.  But below is a live action short for Library Wars that Angle Pictures is sharing on their YouTube channel.  It is entitled “Toshokan Mini Senso – The First Mission”.  It is being shared in preparation of Angle Pictures release of “Toshokan Senso: Book of Memories” special that airs on October 5 in Japan.  Check it out and thanks to AnimeNews Network for the heads up:

Library Wars Becomes Movie

AnimeNews Network’s site says that a June flyer for Kadokawa Shoten’s Kadokawa Bunko imprint has announced that a film based on Hiro Arikawa’s Library War (Toshokan Senso) light novels is in the beginning stages.  As with any movie in the beginning stages it could fall apart or make it to the theaters.  Hopefully this will make it to the theaters and then be made available to the North American market to purchase in Blu-Ray and DVD formats.
