j-pop for u - video: traveling

more stuff at Kiriya.Com.
he directed the casshern flick that's coming out in japan this month.
we'll prolly have to wait forever to get it out here to see.
he also does massive fashion and editorial stuff. really cool.

from da site:
The entire planet has been divided between two opposing alliances. After fifty years of bitter warfare, the Greater Eastern Federation triumphs over the forces of Europa and gains dominion over the Eurasian continent.

However, this is an empty victory. Years of chemical, biological and nuclear war have poisoned the land and left an exhausted population at the mercy of every pestilence and newly-mutated disease.

It seems that there's little hope for humanity's future. Debate rages over the chances of finding some way to stave off the seemingly-inevitable decline of civilization.

One man comes forward with a possible solution. Dr. Azuma is a geneticist who proposes a "neo-cell" treatment that can rejuvenate the body and regenerate humankind. He's driven in his studies by a desire to save his beloved wife, Midori, from the ravages of pollution-related disease.

He appeals for funding to the government but the politicians in the Health Ministry turn him down, fearing that the new technology will threaten their entrenched powers. However, a sinister faction in the powerful military makes
a secret offer to provide the support he needs to further his research.

When an incident occurs in the lab that sends the Professor's "neo-cell" cloning experiment haywire, a race of mutant human beings (Shinzo Ningen) is unleashed upon the world. Instead of being the savior of mankind,
the Professor's miraculous technology looks set to threaten its very existence...

If you haven't seen it yet, here's the japanese trailer for Casshern. While you're at the site I also recommend the trailers for God Diva, Devilman and Steamboy. If you like those sorts of things.
