| I find the comments under the video amusing. Also, I'm not a big Halo fan, but the animation for Halo Legends looks pretty good. I'm still on the fence of watching it or not. |
| That doesn't look too bad actually. |

Ochinchi-Love said: Initially, i had a lot of doubts as i'm a Halo fan, but when i saw the list of the studios bringing this to life plus the addition of the Ghost in the Shell Director Mamoru Oshii, i couldn't help but to give a 2 thumbs up for the idea, plus the animation looks gorgeous, this can either be the beginning of a new era in the animation industry (exaggerating much?) or the at the very least, something for the fans to enjoy.....or hate..... :3 Yes you are exaggerating, very - very hard even. |
| Nice trailer. I would love to see the one with the Female Red Spartan. |
 |
| Im a huge halo fan so i dont care if the anime production is crap :P im watching it :) |
 |
| Trailer looks average, and I'm always sceptical about adaptations of fps... well overall any kind of game. However names of companies involved in developement amuse me. |

| I'm definitely going to give it a chance, but I'll have to see if ots good enought to keep watching. |
| Aside from Casio and Toei (never had much expectations from those guys), the other three looked pretty good. |
 |
| hmmmmm... it'll be interesting to see the reactions when it comes out. |
     My pokemon bring all the boys to the yard... |
| HELL YEAH! This is the Movie 2010! Halo + Anime Movie = MUST WATCH! |
On the fence about this. Like Halo, like anime. Halo as anime? |
 |
| I love the Halo franchise (obviously) so I REALLY hope that Microsoft works well with Japan to make a quality anime, and it doesn't end up just being a marketing ploy to get more Japanese fans. |
  |
| 2 entirely separate things coming together,it seems very strange but knowing they have some top dogs working on this. i can expect to see this being my fav anime yet. I Like Halo Series. I Like Anime. :D |
 |
| Studio 4°C, are making two films and are quite unknown, can't tell about plots or their setting, but something tells me that their works are about "after Halo 3" (closed gigantic portal to the Ark on background and and Chief(?) coming out pod). Production I.G are making two as well and first one is about that 100,000 year history, but CG doesn't look quite good or impressive (which is not suprise), and the other propably about female Spartan's and some disabilty woman's freindship story and guess spartan is about have her emotions back, which were took by training program. Bones is making one, aslo it's action packed and that thing is not spartan soldier, but mecha, can't say anything more. Animation looks great. Toei Ani.'s making one, and looks good, can say that spartan is (propably) not Master Chief. Brute's hand are clearly over sized, or is it brute? AND notice "1337" on chest! LOL! Casio Entertainment making one, totally done with CG and looks more better, than I.G's. Maybe about one of Master Chief's missions, inflintraiting one of the Covenant's ship. Yup. Seven movies, Bungie's fav number, and hopefully at least one is really worth to see and they have good actors for these and Steve Downes makes MC's voice in eng. dub, if he appears. EDIT No, I.G's second story is accually about Spartan and her replace clone, because when Spartan II program were launched, the UNSC kidnapped children and replaced them with identical clones and this is story about original meets the clone! Now thats gonna be interesting! |

| Picture by kaiga. |
| It looks nice, but i'm sure they mentioned something about it covering the history of Halo, and by the look of the trailer, none of that is covering anything in the books, which is a shame. Still, it may touch on some of the characters from them like Kelly, Linda or Fred, but we'll wait and see. If it does cover the events after Halo 3, it does look like it may focus on Onyx, but who knows. Still, here's hoping for more info soon. |
| ehhhhhhh animations looks great but storyline ehhh |
 |
| Different studios? Smells like Animatrix. |
 |
| Halo anime ,loved the series but can't say I'm looking forward to this hopefully it turns out good. |
 |
| The animation looks very good |
| Love the game...and the trailer looks pretty good...even if it wasn't I still would probably watch the anime anyways lol. |
 |
| I wonder if this will come out in Japanese first or will it be in English? Hmmmm........ |
| In-depth article: http://xboxlive.ign.com/articles/100/1007244p1.html Studio 4C: "Origins" - Two-parter covering the origin of the Halo Universe. It'll be narrated by a mystery character, and cover all the events in the past leading up to the end of Halo 3. Master Chief is shown being frozen in this short. "Babysitter" - Covers the relationship between the ODSTs and the Spartans. Lots of character interactions and tension. Toei: "Odd One Out" - A non-canon gag short starring Spartan 1337. It's meant to be a fun silly action piece that parents who play Halo can show their younger kids without having to deal with the more violent and mature parts of the franchise. Bones: "Prototype" - A pure mecha porn action packed piece directed by Muraki and featuring experimental battle suit designs by Aramaki. The story is about a marine sent to a planet to destroy the experimental suit, but finds it overrun by the Covenant. So he suits up and uses it to defend the planet. Production IG: "Homecoming" - A female Spartan comes to terms with her origins as this short explores their history and culture. Traditionally animated. "Duel" - A more artistic and experimental piece done in watercolor style, covering the first contact between Elites and the Covenant. Casio Entertainment: "The Package" - Full CG short about a group of Spartans delivering an unknown package into a Covenant ship. Filled with action packed space battles and gun fights. The episode might be split into two parts as well if the length is required. It is written by Dai Sato, and directed by Aramaki. |

 |
| I'm looking forward to this big time being a fan of the games |
 |
| Im glad that the story seems to be a prequel instead of a retelling. I saw another preview on spike TV but the way the Cheif fights doesn't really seem how he fights in the game, yes I know its an first person shooter but I've never seen him THAT agile. Either way even if it isn't like the source material hopefully it will be good in its own right. |
 |
| awesome trailer, can't wait ^^ The IGN rewind was very informative. Samurai Elite !! |
   |
| yea, I'm not much of a Halo fan but I just recently saw it being featured on Attack of the Show and I thought that the animation looked really good. I'm going to check this out. |

arcspartan said: Different studios? Smells like Animatrix. thats exactly what this is. first the Animatrix, then Batman Gotham Knight, and now Halo. if it gets studio 4°C animating more things, i'd be down for any western franchise getting an anime anthology |
