[ WHAT IS IT ABOUT ]
"Halo Legends" is a collection of seven animated short films set in the Halo science-fiction universe. Financed by Halo franchise overseer 343 Industries, the stories were created by five Japanese production houses: Bones, Casio Entertainment, Production I.G., Studio 4°C, and Toei Animation. Shinji Aramaki, creator and director of Appleseed and Appleseed Ex Machina, serves as the project’s creative director.

[ THE PLOT ]
This 8 episode anthology of 10-15 minute length each, explores the origin and historical events of the HALO universe, and various characters inhabiting the world. Like Animatrix and Batman Gotham Knight, each of the 8 episodes will be created by a separate prominent Japanese anime producer.

I would really like to buy it and play it on my xbox, where i played all my halos... wait, i can't

Btw, the spartan-1337 is funny.

Is it out yet? Or only available for pre-orders?

Its out on amzon. USD19.90

I saw it on Speedy's website. Should be available soon.

Yeahhh!! Just got mine delivered today from Play-Asia!



This will bring my anime mood back into gear!

I think I am buying one in near future.

I can see (from your sig) that you are a Halo fan, so this is a really must buy for you bro!

Haven't watch it... skimmed through and found out that each have their own distinctive animation style.

oh, speedy video says "Coming soon"

Cool, I might just pick this up at speedy

Even my xbox360 died many years ago ... im still a Halo fan-boy. For sure getting this one.

how many eps in this series?

Watched it and man it is nice despite i not a big Halo fan, just watch for the sake of anime animation though.

Best of lots is the package. If Master Chief chief and all the spartans fight like John Woo in the game, the war could have ended earlier.

I think there's 8 episodes, all from different production company.

Anyone planning to bulk this?
