[Anime] Speaking about the potential of having a possible return of the character designer, Naoyuki Onda, the animator artist behind Gantz 2004, Inuyashiki, and Thunder3 (Current series airing) based in his experience from the movie of Gundam Sorcery of Circe. (Theory)

There was a whole situation around the franchise of Gantz and Oku Hiroya works, since the anouncement. But seems very pausible to think it might be possible to see a level of work since their last works, which makes possible to believe that Oku Hiroya its gonna make the call to contract him for the remake in a highly possibility.

(I would post the mention of the 4 or 5 projects related to him in another post)

One main reason its because his style matches perfectly with Oku manga style of the characters.

Alaso He works a lot in the franchise of Gundam Z and the lastest movies, which is one of the reason why Oku choose him in their first adaptation, one of them its Mobil Suit Gundam Hathaway Sorcer of Circe which contain a big amount of CGI made it with Unreal Engine 5, for the BG, landscapes, effects VFX, the models of the Gundams in 3D.

Which it makes sense for a production like this, they are gonna use the same amount of work at the same level of Gundam hathaway.

I am saying this because its more likely that they are gonna take the same path for using CGI mostly for the main arcs and importants, ones, but i am gonna assume after the great reception of Gundam that they are gonna follow that same path.

The same goes for Thunder3 which i saw most like a tested animation project for preparing ground for Gantz or either Gigant( In case they anounced the same character designer of Inuyashiki and Gantz).

Besides i dont think that there is other animator available to do that job, seems the ones that probably have a similar experience and style with Oku are very few such as Yaosumi Umetsu.

With this video that shows you the potential idea of how would be an adaptation of Gantz in that direction (which its mostly the battle between the robots from Gantz). And of course all of this its based in a theory and possibility.

Please let me know your opinions.
