The anime project seeks to highlight the appeal of traditional 2D animation, while keeping 3D CG animation to a minimum.
The campaign seeks to raise 3,000,000 yen (about US$27,550) by August 31 to fund a pilot video for the project.
Producer Saburo Omiya launched a crowdfunding campaign on Twin Engine’s official Motion Gallery platform for an original anime project titled Ninjaxis on Tuesday.
The project’s world is centered on “Clockwork City,” a city that found and maintains its prosperity on the power of clockwork gears.
