Attack On Titan News: Anime Illustrations Criticized As 'Crude And Grotesque' By Gundam Father Yoshiyuki Tomino? 2-Part Live Action AOT Film Arriving; First Offering Targets Summer 2015 Release!

Last year, Gundam Creator Yoshiyuki Tomino criticized the illustrations of popular manga Anime Attack On Titans. En.rocketnews24.com said:

"Tomino praised Attack on Titan creator Hajime Isayama for leaning on his experience as a bullied child to draw the titular monstrous titans of the series, he railed against the illustration style as crude and grotesque. Tomino elaborated that he feels violence and grotesque depictions are on the same level as pornography and he doesn't even want to talk about Attack on Titan, let alone read it."

Meanwhile, Tomino is now facing a new issue. Recent news about him and his newly-released anime, Gundam, says that he has expressed his disappoinment over the anime voice acting. His statement from En.Rocketnews24.com explains why he was so disappointed:

"I've come to realize that asking Sid Mead [to do mechanical designs for the series] was a mistake," Tomino admits. "I was already a fan of his preexisting works, so I gave him free rein to do as he wanted. Actually, somewhere along the line I felt like there was something a little off with the designs he'd submitted, but by that time things were too far along to change their trajectory," he said.

After receiving a criticism from iconic animator, the AOT is set to premiere its 2-part live action film. As a matter of fact, the Suburu commercial features the AOT theme.

The actor to play Eren Jeger Haruma Miura (if you remember him in Gokusen) together with Hiroki Hasegawa, Kiko Mizuhara, Kanata Hongou, Takahiro Miura, Nanami Sakuraba, Satoru Matsuo, Satomi Ishihara, Taki Pierre, Jun Kunimura, Ayame Misaki, and Rina Takeda.

GMA Network said live action will come as two-part movie. Currently, no announcement given when will be the first part live-action movie to be released, but some rumors said that it will be released on summer of 2015 (check out LatinTimes post). Last update about the live-action is about on-going shooting.
