Origin: Manchester! Manga Entertainment seem to like Manchester recently! Following last month's screening of the Death Note movie at Zavvi in the Manchester Arndale Centre, Manga have announced that they will be showing their forthcoming film Origin: Spirits of the Past. The film, which is out on DVD on 25th August, seems to be heavily inspired by Hayao Miyazaki's epic Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind. The story is based in a post-apocalyptic time where humanity lives in tenuous co-existence with the encroaching forest, a co-existence is threatened when a young boy called Agito awakens a girl from the past. The screening is free and takes place on Monday 26th May at 7pm. However, it is a wristband-only event and wristbands must be picked up in person from the store. Wristbands are available on a first-come, first-served basis from 9am from 24th May and are limited to one per person. Source: Us! |

At the moment there is a free sample of the magazine available at www.cosmodeonline.com, and at the end of the magazine there is even a token that offers a 10% discount on the full release on the 25th May.
