Synch-Point Production Blog

Bandai Visual is working on an official Gunbuster website, and asked Synch-Point to help them translate material from Gunbuster Perfect Guidebook.

It’s a lot like the material in FLCL booklet, where it talks about the different manga, anime, novels and movies Gunbuster received influences and inspirations from. ie. Lots of Japanese pop culture & otaku culture references.

Being an Anno title, there’s a lot of SF stuff & tokusatsu stuff.

So it can’t be a simple translation of the original text. We think there will be a substantial amount of translation notes. Bandai Visual was concerned about the amount of extra text, but we assured them that the fans would appreciate them including those notes.

As soon as the official Gunbuster website launches (Nov 8th), we’ll post a link here.
