Megazone 23 XI (pronounced “sai” as in the Greek letter) is AIC’s tentatively titled brand-new anime project in the Megazone 23 franchise.
The new project’s story is set aboard the Megazone 11, a different space colony ship fleet from the Megazone 23 in the 1985 original video anime.
Megazone 23 began with a 1985 motorcycle robot anime that popularized the original video animation, and other veterans of robot mecha anime.
Anime production company AIC’s crowdfunding campaign for a five-minute promotional video for Megazone 23 XI reached its 10 million yen (about US$92,000) goal on Wednesday.
