Murata Range Fan Club

Information
Renji "Range" Murata is an experienced doujinshi and professionally published artist whose work has also been featured in a variety of magazines, video games, and anime series. His style is immediately recognizable by his characters’ frequently elaborate clothing and their soft and colorfully emotional appearance. Murata also designs a number of "fa" ["fashion and anime"] clothing designs and accessories which are sold through GoFa. Or simply, Range Murata was the major force behind the concept, designs and mechanics of Last Exile. That alone is enough to make him a winner, but he has also other great works to his name. Remember Blue Submarine 6? (do you?) Character designs are by him too. He was also voted "Best Artist of the Year" in the 2006 Seiun Award. *tumbleweed*

Picked up an issue of a manga omnibus called 138E a few weeks ago. It was published by Wani Magazine. Found a used copy on Yahoo Auc. It featues cover art by Murata. He's also credited as a special advisor. Inside is a foldout poster of the cover art. This was not a cheap product when it first came out...¥3333 plus tax.

Went on a Murata goods buying spree over the past month. Methinks the dust has finally settled....

Stumbled across PSE series figurines on the Japanese Yahoo! auction site. Those were a bit tempting. The "Skipper" figure (non-scale 17cm figure with scooter) from Products#01...not so tempting with a starting bid price of ¥11,370.

Last Exile's new series & the novel Cop Craft: Dragnet Mirage Reloaded need to be added to the relations lists.

While shopping at Book-Off on Friday I came across a Japanese omnibus volume of manga short stories which piqued my interest. It featured cover art by Murata. Unfortunately, that was his only contribution. So, I left it on the shelf. :P

New Last Exile

My body is ready.

So, basically, that 2011 GONZO anime is the new Last Exile: Ginyoku no Fam. Just in case anyone hadn't already figured it out.
