Desert Knight, weird Gainax project

Gainax panel at an Anime Expo in the United Arab Emirates is showing a trailer for something titled Desert Knight, can't tell if it's a movie or anything but it looks like its being produced purely for an arabic-speaking audience.
This is a trailer for it, not sure if it's what they're showing:

what the fuck
I could take the talking statues being idols but
anime is getting too weird for me

Is this all male cast only? where are my cute brown girls Gainax

Why the fuck is Gainax always at those Arab conventions

Gainax is so fucking neutered without their key players, it's kinda depressing.

This is alarming, how will cute girls fit into all this if they can't put girls in?

Because rich nigerian weeabo prince's pour liquid money and gold into them.
Obviously.

>gainax is funding by illicit arab oil money

Everything's a circle...

>war
>revenge
>terrorism

Who wants to watch that? Don't they get enough of it in real life?

>women
>being allowed to do things or be seen

Haram

looks boring

Old Gainax:
>deconstructing anime forever with NGE
>creating the last word in mecha with Gunbuster/Diebuster
>making the most enjoyable entry level show ever with FLCL
>ruining christmas with PSG

New Gainax:
>Making anime for sandniggers

Good. The more anime the better. The time of live acting needs to end.

shit looks gay as fuck tbqh senpaitachi

RASHIDOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Is frackles a grill? Looks a bit like a reverse trap.

Gainax is insane but brilliant. Just imagine what happens when sandniggers become weeaboos.

>reverse trap
>in arab approved media

I doubt gainax wants to die by jihad.

This is what the best anime studio of all time has been reduced to...

> Aoki Uru never

It's already happened.

>Anime Expo in the middle east
>anime for Arabs
>anime set in the middle east
Did some rich guy fund this personally? It's pretty bizarre.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if this was being funded by a certain nation you know..... to inspire some local "freedom fighters" to free people from "Tyranny and Oppression" in some far off land....

New Gainax and Old Gainax don't even belong together, Trigger and Khara are the true Gainax, so who cares what Gainax does nowadays?

Is it safe for Gainax employees? I don't want them to get beheaded

Well Pakistan is also religious as fuck but the country animates a cartoon with male and female main characters, without any headscarves and shit, the trailer looked pretty European. People who love fiction are usually more open minded. Fanatics don't watch any cartoons.

Sounds shitty.

That being said, I would love to see the siege of Jerusalem during the first crusade, we killed so many mudslimes that at the end of the battle the crusaders were fighting knee deep in a pool of blood that was forming inside the walls of the city!

Fuck yeah good times!

They got some stuff over there in the 70s/80s, iirc. Mostly mecha anime. Grendizer was pretty popular for a while.

The U.S. is objectively shit though.

It's Japan's fault for not buying anything but plot-less CGDCT or fujo anime. Gainax doesn't make any money there so they rather animate stuff for other nations.

They'll probably just get literally killed. Either executed by a theocratic government or lynched by a mob incited by some mullah.

They've already lost their heads already, all they have is leftover personnel.

So do you just not watch anime?

translator here

Long ago..Once upon a time
somewhere in the arabian peninsula
>arab music
There was a child, the most beloved of people, and a fighter for peace
>epic western orchestra
>more arab music
>EXPLOSION
In a world where the law of the jungle and bandits rule
>OMINOUS MUSIC
It is necessary for this evil to end
>UPLIFTING MUSIC
When the leader rises up, bravery follows him
>EXPLOSIONS
>SWORD FIGHTING
HISTORY IS WRITTEN ANEW!!!!!!
FARIS al-SAHRA'
DESERT KNIGHT

The evil guys look more like Taliban though. It looks like some civil war between Arabs, but we have to wait for a synopsis to be sure.

thanks for translating the music too

Americans are the good guys, they'd never do inappropriate things in the globe.

I know the plot already just from watching this trailer.

...

Allah is best girl.

It's a bit like those old-school trailers than instead of buzzing drones, jump cuts, one liners and sudden jolts, actually told you what the plot is about and who the characters are

Well, that was weird.
I'll give it a shot.

Arabic stories are always amazing.
Hopefully, it'll be 1001 Nights-ish.

>no anime of the hashashins
>no anime of Ali (god)
>no anime of Ismail Safavid I
fucking nips

They're just producing anime for a European audience.

It just looks like a generic shounen anime though.

I never implied that, everyone knows about Murrica's shit. I only said that the anime doesn't look like it contains any anti-american propanda. It's most likely the typical story about some criminal and his lackeys who become powerful through terror and killing of political enemies and a group of orphans wanting to defeat them to avenge their families.

Love Death will be the best idol anime in the name of Mohammad (pbuh)

They really know their audience, they even gave the main character a Go Nagai haircut.

>...

>>>/reddit/

I heard that most Near Easterners are shounen fags so that's probably the reason why they chose this.
I wonder if fucking non-France Europe will ever do an anime-like cartoon or hire a Japanese studio to do it. It seems like all my country ever did is producing the same five shitty series for old people. This shit is already airing for fucking decades and people still watch it.

hope they move to more modern times

I'd watch it. Seems pretty fun.

That sounds extremely exaggerated.

>That sounds extremely exaggerated.
Except that it really wasn't exaggerated at all!

The crusaders literally put the entire population of Jerusalem to death, they executed women and children and elderly alike!

Do note that Jerusalem, being the holy city of 3 mainstream religions, was one of the most populated cities in the world at the time of the first crusade.

There are several historical documents describing the massacre, the amount of blood and gore were by no means imagination by the part of the authors!

Japan will do what the West could not.
It starts with respectful depictions of their culture and history.
Then they start turning historical figures into cute girls (Saladin-chan when?)
Finally the Arabs will end up masturbating to yaoi and arguing which Keijo is best girl

Fucking sandnegros ruining my anime. At least they aren't as bad as the Chinese.

I will still watch it just for the threads on Sup Forums.

looks awesome

It's another one of those projects that will never see the light of day. Just like that TTGL rip off.

The taste of sandniggers is very similar to chinks, they can't get enough of their chuuni shounen shit for some reason.

>Trigger and Khara are the true Gainax

>endless Eva milking and westaboo trash are the true gainax

>they can't get enough of their chuuni shounen shit for some reason.

Isn't that the taste of every normie though.

Only place I see who don't follow that shit is here

Looks like generic shonen desu
Kind of shame really. Arabian mythology and history is actually pretty neat and I bet you could you straight up steal the entire plot out of it and make some cool stuff with it

Bullshit, chinks have more similar taste to nips.

Might be interesting.
Fujos and faggots got their tons of anime by showering Japan with money.
So it isn't surprising sand niggers can do the same since they got lots of dosh lying around.
Wonder when will yurops pony up the cash for a true medieval fantasy anime.

Looks really cheap

>paying for anime
Fuck no. And fuck you.

>TTGL rip off
Torkaizer?

I think this is just contract work for some rich guy and not an authentic studio piece, but After School Pleiades and Stella Academy C3-bu had pretty Gainax worthy stories, though not so good animation production.

>implying Gainax didn't milk Eva
>implying Gainax weren't westaboos

>Wonder when will yurops pony up the cash for a true medieval fantasy anime.

If that were to happen, it would probably turn into some tumblr pandering shit like how most cartoons are nowadays.

>Torkaizer
That was a Raioh ripoff
And also I don't think that was ever actually finished

Now that I think about it, is Magi the only Arabian Nightsesque anime out there?

I was being facetious, I do care about Gainax if for no other reason they're named Gainax.

You know Nigeria is in Africa, right?

Thumbnail made it look like that was a skeleton.
Disappointment

It was shown like what, 2 or 3 years ago? Definitely cancelled then.

what's the difference?

I thought gainax and trigger were the same thing.

>Gainax literally pandering to ISIS
Yeah nah, they can die now.

Sup Forums stinking up other boards as usual.

>Only place I see who don't follow that shit is here

You haven't been here long enough then.

>Gainax making swedish anime

neat

>Sup Forums stinking up other boards as usual.
The fuck?

Dude, this was one of the greatest battles in the history of humanity, are you seriously that brainwashed that you cannot imagine what an awesome anime that would make? Imagine the battle scenes man!

I don't particularly support genocides, but im a sucker for historically inspired anime.

>anime about brown people
>everything explodes
Pottery.

If anything it's more of a history thing than deplorable alt-right pepe posting.

Might be cool.

That shading is shit

>history thing

>we killed so many mudslimes that at the end of the battle the crusaders were fighting knee deep in a pool of blood that was forming inside the walls of the city!
>Fuck yeah good times!
>hey executed women and children and elderly alike!
>he amount of blood and gore were by no means imagination by the part of the authors!
>!

Clearly a crossboarder

1001 Nights

whats with the shabby looking sabre? where are the C4 & AK47? would rather have SOL version sipping tea and bombing people.

ARABIAN NIIIIIIIIIIGHTS

LIKE ARABIAN DAAAAAYYYYYYSSSS

Uru in Blue FUCKING WHEN?

What?
Anime is really popular in the Arab world, Look up Cartoon Network
>Majoos
>Arabian
Sounds more Farsi desu

Shit I fucked up I meant Spacetoons
Its the most popular Cartoon channel in the Arab world and half of it is anime

Can't wait for it.
It'll be picked up by fujos and arabs will go apeshit over yaoi doujins.

ARE HOTTER THAN HOT

muslims never learn do they?

>and a fighter for peace

It looks really bad. The animation is poor, music is boring and every character looks the damn same.

And the kid wants revenge for a bombing so he uses the magic dagger to do anither bombing? I don't get it

>Africa doesn't have deserts

oh god, americans in charge of geography.
