Mysterious possible anime/manga/game

August 14th, 2009

Dengeki Online and Girl’s Style mention a new franchise that popped up at Comket from Red Entertainment called Scared Rider Xechs - the katakana makes the first word sound more like Skah-red, and it looks like it has an…umlaut…above the ‘r’ (does that even make sense?) so I’m not sure what word it’s supposed to be.

The staff includes pako-san as character design, from Shining Wind Feather and Rental Magika), Satou Dai as writer from Eureka Seven and Higashi no Eden.

Right now there’s only a teaser site, but it says it will offically open in September.

Pretty mysterious all in all, but I do like the artstyle! The Dengeki article says it hasn’t been decided whether Scared Rider Xechs will be a manga, an anime (maybe a game?) and it will be developed by listening to fans. Oh, the themes of the story are ‘red sky’, ‘young men’ (as the main characters?), ‘scars’ (??) ‘south’ (???), ‘sea and rock’, and ‘inochigake’, which is something like putting it all on the line (literally betting your life). So, ah…maybe it’s about, um, a young man with scars from a tough childhod, betting his life on…traveling south to the sea where there’s a red sky…and he rocks out? I have no clue.

What do you think it could be?

    ….XD I’m not quite sure but your hypothesis just won the “weirdest thing I’ve heard all day” award. <3 That was funny. Although, I do like the artstyle. However, it does look like it would fit the artstyle for a visual novel game rather than an anime or manga.
