Mass Effect anime to release in 2012

http://www.vg247.com/2011/04/07/mass...lease-in-2012/

The movie’s being made in collaboration with BioWare, T.O. Entertainment and FUNimation.

Mass Effect series producer Casey Hudson will be executive producer alongside FUNimation president and CEO Gen Fukunaga, director of original entertainment Chris Moujaes, T.O Entertainment’s CEO Takeichi Honda and Yui Shibata.

“Over the last few years, we have revealed different pieces of the Mass Effect world through different media. Extending the story through an anime medium is another amazing opportunity for us,” said Hudson.

Shepard-san, am I kawaii? uguu

inb4 what about tali

[Insanecyclone]

Fuck Tali. This is better

All classes can wield all weapons unhindered now, but will have limited slots to carry them. Only the Soldier can carry all weapons at once. Probably means Adept, Engineer, and Sentinal will be limited to two, and Vanguard and Infiltrator will have three.

[6souls]

Meh, I only used two guns as an Engineer anyways. Well until the last mission when I had ammo issues.

[Rulke]

Really hoping Liara can be a full time team member again. Loves me some asari <3

inb4 what about tali

Damn, Ashley looking nice.

...who? Is this a new character or some randomer from ME1/2 I never enountered? I've not played the latest DLC if he's from that, it just seems odd that they'd drop his name alone if he's not been introduced at all.

Also fuck yeah, Garrus

Pleased with this too, I thought ME2 was really really lacking in character progression and equipment options

[Gokulo]

A new guy I think.

[Nama]

Think Sanders is or is related to a character from the novels

[Odesseiron]

There's a Kahlee Sanders in the book who I'm really hoping to see, don't ever recall anything about a James Sanders though.

Also; Fuck yeah no multiplayer. Campaign all the way.

[Fallyn]

Fuck yeah no multiplayer.
