NHK MAG-NET

Oh, I see SHAFT production's is working on an animated opening for the Sunday night program "Mag-Net" (Magnet)



As you can see it's still a draft, but it seems well done so far, expecting an excellent opening for the show.

For people who are wondering, what is this "MAG-NET" show that's aired on NHK on Sunday nights, you can visit NHK's official MAG-NET website here

M＝マンガ A＝アニメ G＝ゲーム そしてネット

Here's a rough translation, basically MAG-NET stands for Manga, Anime, Games and I'd take "NET" as internet(? correct me if I'm wrong). A program that's entirely different as it introduces us the three-four sub-categories of an ordinary Otaku basically. Interesting. I saw a few segments of the show where it introduces us to guests and celebrities involving those genres. Also there was also explainations of current trends in games, nets, animes and manga.

From the opening and information from the site, I'd take it that Ono Daisuke & Gotou Saori will be voicing/seiyuu the "MCs" of the show and they even sang the opening for this program.

Here's a sample segment:

This segment explains the expansion of the "Touhou Project", from the simple dojin game it is to now how characters from Touhou Project is now popular throughout nico nico MADs, Music and Fanvids, and Fan art (Basically the Otaku world). It also updates us with the current trends in the surroundings of the "Touhou Project" and many fandoms, how it all started, how this project was developed and many other interesting background information in regards to it. Interesting indeed, you can see part 2 and the rest of the show by visiting the external link through this video if you're interested.

Anyways, look forward for the MAG-NET program.
