Iriya's Sky, Summer of UFOs 03 - Dance in the Manta Pilot Bund



Here we are at the strangely dark school festival episode of Iriya's Sky. Though I don't mean dark in terms of subject matter, just in terms of lighting. (This extends to all encodes I've seen of ep 03.) Maybe it's all to set up a contrast to the memorable sunset "dancing" scene at the end? Oh, and before I forget again, this release in general is semi-dedicated to anime blogger and real-life acquaintance Xebek; this OVA is among his first and favorite anime. And if you're in the Midwestern USA and into science fiction, check out this event that he and a long-time friend of mine put on. I may also be there.

P.S. You may think it's trolling, but I think the line fits the situation. Watch the ep and you'll likely see what I mean.

  1. Oh wow.

    Lucky I stumbled across this.

    As one of the members of AnY who originally worked on the series, I am happy someone cares about this OVA enough to release a modern version.

    Btw. if you feel like chatting, or would like access to my old Iriya scripts to speed things up, memoserv Minase_Nayuki on Rizon. I see Zalis regged with memoserv, but~~

  2. Thank you for bringing back this excellent series, in spite of I already have Ayu's version I'm downloading again. I hope Iriya gets a BD release someday.

  3. I had always wondered if the extreme fuzziness of my ancient copy (AnY-Spork) of this episode was an encoding thing, or due to the source. Seems it was indeed, the source.

    Seems like a bizarre thing to do deliberately, particularly given the dancing scene.
