Today is girly day at the AHT! After the first teaser trailer for Oshii’s Assault Girls this morning, director Keita Matsuda brings us the lonely Electronic Girl played by gravure idol Maya Koizumi. The first (of course J-Pop infested) trailer for the film has popped up a few days ago on the official website and while some scenes do look kinda nice (especially those b/w fighting scenes), I’m got quite sure what to think about the rest.
Electronic Girl will open in Japanese theaters on September 12th.

2055, the world lies devastated. Humans survive in a divided society between the poor in the outside world living in poverty, and the privileged living inside a giant protective dome. In order to supplement the needs of a decimated population, robots are used heavily to support the workforce. The elite class demand a more aesthetically pleasing and easily integrated artificially life form to work amongst them, so Nana the most sophisticated humanoid android ever is created. Developing intelligence and emotions for faster than the scientists ever anticipated, Nana escapes from the laboratory and goes on the run from “The Institute” who created her. They want her her back at any cost.
