With Wai-con (Held in Perth) set to be one of the first in a line of Australian anime conventions held over the year, Hanabee Entertainment have recently announced that they will be holding an Australian Premiere of their upcoming anime release of Gyo: Tokyo Fish Attack. If you are not familiar with this title, check out the synopsis below:
A horrible rotting stench has accompanied Kaori’s trip with her friends for graduation. The source? A fish on mechanical legs. But that fish is a part of a larger issue, as soon enough a nation wide invasion of these creatures is upon them and they’re carrying something far worse than a foul odor.
With Tokyo under siege by these creatures, Kaori cuts her graduation trip short in order to rescue Tadashi, her boyfriend, before he too becomes a victim. But it becomes a daunting task when the city is barely recognisable and there are fish around every corner threatening her own safety.
A biological experiment gone wrong or the simple natural progress of evolution, Kaori might find out a truth she may not want to know in her quest to rescue Tadashi from this pandemic.
The film is set to screen at 3:30PM on the Sunday session at the Riverside Theatre. For those who are unable to make the event, you will not have too much longer to wait with Hanabee planning a release on both DVD and Blu-ray from the 6th March 2013.
