Celebrating the 45h anniversary of the series "World Masterpiece Theater" since the airing of the first episode "A Dog of Flanders", a new project titled "Sekai Meisaku Nostalgia” was announced, with the anime "Romeo's Blue Skies" being the first to be featured. "Romeo's Blue Skies", which is also celebrating 25 years this year, will be licensed under the brand name "Romeo lo spazzacamino”. The first anime series to be part of the project “Sekai Meisaku Nostalgia" is geared towards an adult audience. The project features a lineup with newly revised art by character designer Satou Yoshiharu, which will take form in decorations and kitchen appliances. And since the series takes place in Milano, Italy, “Romeo lo spazzacamino" makes use of the Italian language for design nomenclature. New information can be found on their official website. （C）NIPPON ANIMATION CO., LTD.

The gigantic tactical bomber "Gigant," which was revived by the villain Lepka in the TV anime "Future Boy Conan," is being commoditized for the first-time as a watch with a concept of "Gigant on your arm!". It is available for pre-order from Apr. 3, 2020 at the online store "Tokyo Giga Shop". The "Gigant Handcraft Watch" is made by "Tokyo Giga Shop", a company that implemented several collaboration between craftsmans and the universe of famous titles, such as "Colonel Muska Sunglasses" and "Ghost In Shell Ukiyo-e". Under the supervision of the "Nippon Animation", who made the TV anime, and handcraft watch association "JHA", it became a genuine handcraft watch with quality. To reproduce the strange form image of the "Gigant," also called a flying fortress, it uses the casting pewter (tin alloy) as the material to give profound impressions. To express the thick joint outer plate and different parts of molds, it is crafted with a metallic texture. The dials include details such as the thickness that reflects the inner structure of the Gigant and white second hand that engraves the final flight of the "Dokuga (Poison Moth)". Every watch is created one by one by the watch craftsman. "Gigant Handcraft Watch" is priced at 26,000 Yen (28,600 Yen Tax incl.). The pre-order will begin from Apr. 3, 2020 at "Tokyo Giga Shop" and it will be shipped 4 to 6 weeks after the purchase once the watches are crafted. （C）NIPPON ANIMATION CO.,LTD.
