This year, 2017, marks the hundred year anniversary of Japanese animation! The first Los Angeles Anime Film Festival<\/a> was held in celebration of the occasion, featuring distinguished anime films such as Ghost in the Shell, Cowboy Bebop: The Movie, My Neighbor Totoro, AKIRA<\/em> and more. A special event for the premiere of No Game No Life: Zero<\/em> English dub opened the festival, featuring a red carpet ceremony and guests from across the industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

The festival was held from September 15 to 17 at the Regal L.A Live, in Downtown Los Angeles.<\/span><\/p>\n

Los Angeles Film Festival describes the No Game No Life: Zero<\/em>: <\/span><\/p>\n

The film takes place six thousand years before Sora and Shiro were even a blink in the history of Disboard. War consumed the land, tearing apart the heavens, destroying stars, and even threatening to wipe out the human race. Amid the chaos and destruction, a young man named Riku leads humanity toward the tomorrow his heart believed in. One day, in the ruins of an Elf city, he meets Shuvi, a female exiled “ex-machina” android who asks him to teach her what it means to have a human heart.<\/span><\/p>\n

We got the fantastic opportunity to see many special guests such as Scott Gibbs, the English voice of \u201cRiku\u201d; Caitlynn French, the English voice of \u201cShuvi\u201d; and Kyle Colby Jones, the ADR Director of the film as they arrived. No Game No Life: Zero<\/em>\u2019s producer Sho Tanaka was also at the red carpet event and we got the chance to briefly interview him.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you for coming to the United States! How does it feel to being able to watch No Game No Life: Zero<\/em> here and see how popular it is abroad?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Sho Tanaka:<\/strong> I\u2019m really surprised by how many people have been touched by No Game No Life<\/em>. I\u2019m very happy to be here.<\/span><\/p>\n

Is it too soon for No Game No Life<\/em> Season 2?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Tanaka<\/strong>: Well\u2026 maybe there\u2019s a lot to look forward to but we don\u2019t know!!<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019ve produced a lot of other TV anime shows including Re:Zero<\/em> and Bungo Stray Dogs<\/em>. How does it feel doing an anime movie compared to a TV series?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Tanka<\/strong>: When I was making the film, I wanted to appeal to even more people. I want to bring out an even bigger fan base and I was really thinking about that while making the film.<\/span><\/p>\n
