Weekly Movie/Music update: Around 440 new J-Pop, Anime, Soundtrack & Movie releases - Tales of Symphonia II (OST), Asian Kung Fu Generation (compilation), Evangelion, Batman Begins (movies) & more!
Welcome to this week's Movie/Music news roundup, containing new Japanese and Hong Kong Video and Music releases from this week listed at Play-Asia.com. Around 440 new items are covered in this week, including new J-Pop, Anime as well as Japanese, Hong Kong and Western movie releases and much more.
Following the release of the sequel to the best selling "Tales of" game, Tales of Symphonia: Knight of Ratatosk Original Soundtrack is published. This is a voluminous collection containing a total of four CDs with all music composed for this installment included.
The connection between this game and the first one is established through the continuing plot and the recurring characters. To emphasize this connection, musical themes for the old characters are remixed to fit their matured roles while new themes are composed for Emil and Marta, the two new protagonists.
Asian Kung Fu Generation is a popular band in Japan and many anime fans may already have heard of them for they have performed themes songs for hot series such as Naruto and Full Metal Alchemist.
This band has hosted the Nano Mugen 2008 event to promote rock music and this compilation consists of the works featured in this event. Scout out new favourites with this CD as it offers you a taste of sixteen bands in one disc.
This set of feature length movies retells Neon Genesis Evangelion, a highly acclaimed anime series from the late 1990s. Evangelion follows the misadventures of Ikari Shinji that eventually pushes him toward maturation and this first disc - Evangelion You're (not) Alone tells of the unfortunate incidents that begins to shape his life.
This is the reprint of the original limited edition of the Evangelion movie and will only be available for as long as stocks last.
Batman is one of the most popular comic titles in the world and Gotham city is one of the most decadent and glamourous cities. Batman Begins [ Standard and Limited Gift Set edition] explore the beginnings of the dark knight, starting from the death of the protagonist's parents.
To give this superhero film more depth, the director focuses on the topic of fear and how the protagonist overcomes it through facing it. Aside from an in depth character analysis of the hero, the films' many action scenes and hi-tech gadgets will never leave you bored.
Here's a summary of all new releases that were published between Saturday, July 5th and Friday, July 11th. If some specific item that you are looking for is missing, please don't hesitate to contact our customer service with your request.
