Stan Lee's Anime Series THE REFLECTION Gets a Promo Teaser and a Premiere Date
I'm not sure if you've heard or not, but Stan Lee has a new anime series coming out soon called The Reflection. The series "follows the fight between superhero Xon and villain I-Guy, who are among those found to have gained special powers following a global disaster called the Reflection."
A promo teaser has been released for the anime series narrated by Lee that provides some additional insight on the story and introduces us to some of the characters. It was also revealed that the 12-episode series would premiere on July 22nd on Japanese public broadcaster NHK.
The series was directed by Hiroshi Nagahama (Mushishi, The Flowers of Evil, Detroit Metal City) and Yoshihiko Umakoshi of the animated TV series Heartcatch Precure! is the character designer on the show. Studio Deen is taking on the animation production.
It looks like an interesting series that could be fun. We'll just have to wait and see. Stan Lee really hasn't done anything crazy awesome since his days at Marvel, but I'll definitely give this a shot whenever it becomes available to watch in the US. Check out the promo and let us know what you think.
I included some additional character art below the promo. You'll see that Stan Lee even gets his own character! He's a man with a cape!
