June 14, 2008 by Firedauz

Back in 2005, Sprite Animations Studios, a studio founded by Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within co-director Moto Sakakibara and other former Square USA employees, announced that it was working on a computer-graphics film version for a 2007 release, but the project has yet to materialize. This time around however, a Korean production company Tewon Media has successfully completed a deal with the Japanese publisher Kodansha to animate Masashi Tanaka’s Gon manga for an early 2010 broadcast! The news came during New York’s Licensing International Expo on June 11. The original manga’s namesake is a tiny orange dinosaur that lives amongst the rest of nature long after the Age of Dinosaurs, but with the powerful strength of his ancestor! Tanaka deliberately created the manga without any dialogue to give the animals’ interactions and the lone dinosaur’s day-to-day life a sense of realism. Scripts, storyboards, and other pre-production material for the animated Gon are expected to be done by the end of the year Have your say on this anime here!
