PANZER ANGEL GABRIEL BK (C: 1-1-3)

Description

"Kazutaka Miyatake is an anime designer, best known for for the mechanical design of the Macross series and its continuations from Studio Nue, and he contributed to the mecha design of other series, such as Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny. Naoyuki Kato is a noted science-fiction artist, contributing to many sci-fi/fantasy magazines, novels, and games over a career that has spanned nearly four decades. Panzer Angel Gabriel is the legendary work which Studio NUE tried to make - a live-action powered suits film - only to give up when the designs could not be realized. Drawing upon the designs of Kazutaka Miyatake and newly-drawn illustrations by Naoyuki Kato, this volume presents the history of this tortured production and recreates what the vision for film would have been. A chapter of science-fiction history is revealed at last. Japanese text."
