daicon 33

A revival project celebrating the 33 anniversary of the creation of the Daicon III and Daicon IV anime shorts.

Gainax revealed the details of Daicon 33 on January 8, 2014. The concept of the project is "the revival of DAICON FILM" and the company plans to release various goods inspired by their early short films from the 80s.

The project's official site has started accepting pre-orders for the first lineup of the memorial goods including a towel and clear file featuring the girls from the famous Daicon Ⅲ & Ⅳ opening animations. The new illustration is drawn by Akai Takami, the character designer of the opening animation films and one of the founders of Gainax. The illustration is now also displayed on the top page of Gainax's official site.

The project is also offering an iPhone case, tote bag, and mug cup featuring Daicon Ⅲ inspired art.
