Mobile Police Patlabor the Movie (DVD) (Japan Version)

YesAsia Editorial Description

Patlabor, or Mobile Police Patlabor, is a classic name to anime fans. The police mecha franchise is the brainchild of Headgear, which consists of screenwriter Ito Kazunori, composer Kawai Kenji, scenarist Yuki Masami, character designer Takada Akemi, and, most notably, director Oshii Mamoru. The popular franchise has over the years spawned a manga, three anime series, and three feature-length films, the first of which was released in 1989. Directed by Oshii, the first Patlabor film, like other entries in the franchise, revolves around the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Special Vehicle Division 2 unit, which investigates crimes and accidents involving labors or labor robots.

In the center of the messy construction that is Tokyo Bay lies the Ark, a giant man-made steel tower island where labors are manufactured. One day, programmer Hoba Eichi jumps to his death from the Ark. Soon after construction and military labors begin to malfunction, going on destructive rampages on their own accord. SV.2 traces the source of the problem to a new software program that was recently installed to all labors, including possibly the police's own Patlabor team. The program was created by Hoba, seemingly as a deliberate plan to bring destruction, and the unit must figure out how to reverse its effects before it's too late.

Product Information

タイトル:機動警察パトレイバー劇場版: <EMOTION the Best>
出演:冨永みーな/古川登志夫/池水通洋/二又一成
監督:押井守

押井守の名を決定付けた「機動警察パトレイバー」の記念すべき劇場版第1作。

鬼才・押井守監督が若手クリエイター集団・ヘッドギアを率いて放った、1989年公開の劇場版アニメの傑作。DVD化にあたってはオリジナルキャストが再演する超豪華なアフレコを実現。5.1ch化に必要なセリフ音源は劇場公開後に廃棄されていたため、再度アフレコを敢行、加えて音楽・効果音も新録音。オリジナルとは違ったニューバージョンとして甦った。もちろんマルチ音声により公開当時のオリジナル音声も選択可能。さらにニュープリント使用でクオリティの高いDVDが完成した。
1999年夏、自衛隊の試作レイバーが突如、暴走を始めた。しかし、それは相次ぐ事件のほんの幕開けに過ぎなかった。何者かに仕掛けられたコンピュータ・ウィルスによって、次々と暴走するレイバー。我らが特車ニ課第2小隊のはみだしポリスたちは、姿無き犯人を求めてメガロポリスを駆け抜ける。
