  • Oh my... As a speed freak, automotive enthusiast and engineering enthusiast, this looks like a wonderful thing for me.

  • I randomly came across this link on a gaming website being recommended by a user. I watched it just out of sheer curiosity due mainly to the flawless animation which I initially thought was computer generated animation.

    This Anime, although I haven't watch it to judge the merits of the story, is a testament of why I think Japanese animators are the premier of hand drawn animation. Unlike America animated films, they take tremendous pride in there work and their work last to the test of time.

  • Animation is probably best I've ever seen. The only ones that are even worth comparing are First squad, cowboy bebop the movie, samurai champloo and shigurui. But I think animation in this one tops all of them. I gave it 4/5 stars just for animation. There as almost no character development, no deep storyline, just a thrilling ride and a GORGEOUS ANIMATION. I just wish there was more to characters.

  • omg, this animation is outta this world, way ahead of it;s time, do this gave this on blu ray?

  • Why hasn't this won an OSCAR or a BATA

  • @CornishCreamtea07 Because only cheap and stupid movies can be nominated for those kind of awards. Great anime movies are to good for that shit

  • This a good racing movie

  • When the fuck is this coming to America?

  • @jowston100 Already did just look for it on DVD/BluRay :)

  • There are lots of clues in the movie in almost all of Machinehead's appearances.

  • Spoilers for those who were wondering:

    ---------------------------

    Machinehead is Sonoshee's father.

    The pimp with the golden car in JP's fantasy is the evil old Mafia guy.

  • @1Shalnark1 Where the heck did you get that from? The Machinehead bit

  • My impression of this trailer:...So it's pretty much the Speed Racer anime on Crack...Fuckin A

  • movie was wack yo

  • this is not a trailer...

  • @EpiXl33t ...But it is.

  • song is wonderful never heard of this movie LLooks great

  • ONE OF THE BEST ANIMATED MOVIES MOFOFKAJKLFE3KLFKLJWELDJKLXFJE­KLAJWFKLJKLEWJAKLFJEKLWFJAKLEW­JFKLEJWK'LJKW'GJAK'WJBG'AJWKG'­JAEK'WGJK'AEWJGJAEWGJAEWGJ;AEW

  • This really needs more attention, very nice anime.. really want to know more about the main character and his adventures. For some reason he reminds me of Spike from Cowboy Bebop. I wish the ending wasn't like it was since it seems like a complete ending..Just would like to see more races and other planets with him as the main character.

  • It's great to see the legacy of Yoshiaki Kawajiri live on through his best student.

  • @biglebonski yes,someone noticed.

    they are both great..wish this one had more storyline though

  • What is the name of the song?

  • This Looks so fuckin sick! reminds me of the new style of afro samurai! cant wait till it downloads!

  • This movie was pure amazing.

  • I expect to see Captain Falcon for no less than 10 minutes.

  • Normally I hate anime for its usually shoddy animation. This, however, is a freaking masterpiece.

  • @WaffleTrooper Well, shoddy animation is Japan's forte, though I'm inclined to agree with you on THIS particular animation.

  • This movie ruined racing movies for me thats how good it is

  • @OriginalNub awww yeah!

  • not much on story, but if youre looking for a gorgeous action movie then its pretty fucking amazing.

  • Guy who did dead leaves. Same art style, so It's not exactly new or experimental, just unique to him. Takeshi koike. dead leaves was just like this, one mission, enormous amounts of action, funky characters galore, and pen and color style animations. Guys got a good head on his shoulders and should be commended for making these bad boy films. sometimes I/we just need mindless blather and explosions or we'll go mad I think.

  • and another complaint.... THERE'S HARDLY ANY RACING AT ALL. 90% of the racing shown in the trailers are in the first 5 minutes. Don't be mistaken, this is not a racing-type film, it's an action movie with 2 races thrown into it. Okay, I'm done.

  • Good film. Great art-style... but I hated the final "race". They tried too hard to over-complicate something as simple as reaching the finish-line by throwing in a ton of unnecessary action and sub-plots. Too much style and hardly any substance, it's like they ran out of budget to wrap it up in a decent way. Watch it, it's good... just not as great as it could have been.

  • somewhere in japan there are a thousand animators with severe wankers cramp

  • just watched...fuckin EPIC

  • Looks...American!

  • @ParaChomp

    I think Madhouse were trying out a new Anime art style, which I'm glad about as I'm sick of Moi, and this is the result.

  • I finally saw it. Thank you Koike,Ishii,and all of the guys at MADHOUSE who worked on this. What an amazing movie this was.

  • Just watched it.

    Never in hell i would expect it would be this good, been at least 5 years since i was so impressed by a full length anime.

  • Must watch!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Just watched this movie yesterday. It was great.

  • Awesome movie.

  • My friend and I both saw this trailer and was amazed at the animation, so we both watched this movie afterwards. The movie was really good, the first 15 minutes was the best in my opinion. After finishing the movie, me and my friend both debated that this trailer might be better than the movie. The movie felt...unfinished and short...like they concluded things way too easily and fast. Killed the "tough" mafias in 5 seconds? Who's the pimp guy with the golden car? What happened to Funky Boy?

  • @xXSe7en11Xx

    lol, i totally forgot about funky boy, and the pimp is his idol, just a nameless idol ;]

    Anyway the whole point of the movie is the story of JP and Sonoshee and their race. Rest is just background, but yeah some outro would be nice, they probably hit the deadline, thats the problem with small indie productions. Still you will not find another movie like this,i had so much fun it should be illegal.

  • 23 people couldn't handle the platinum nitro 

  • The music doesn't suit the trailer at all.

  • Looks like a brutal newer version of Speed Racer... I think I'm going to rent it on Netflix.

  • Wouldn't the F Zero theme go better here?

  • Apart from the beautiful animation, the only stunted thought that came to my brain while I was visually assault-fucked by everything happening on screen during this trailer was, "Why are all their faces bleed?"

  • @ManchildGames Looks like they take a beating in this movie... tough road to the finish... at the 1:35 sec mark the girl in pink takes a huge chunk of steel to the head... I have not seen this movie but i think she is dead...

  • speed racer on crack

  • Takeshi Koike (Director of REDLINE) > Hayao Miyazaki

    There I said it.

  • This trailer actually does not make me want to watch this movie. The somethingawful review does.

  • @fireflocs Fuckin penises.

  • One word comes to mind when I watch this trailer, one word to sum up all the things i see, think, and feel for 1:45 seconds.......... MAGNIFIQUE !

  • Redline sets the standard for best looking anime movie bar none...no competition.

  • One of the best animes I've seen in years. This will be a classic and will stand along side Ghost in the Shell and AKIRA. Buy it on Bluray. It's just too gorgeous not too.

  • what's this bout? i love teh animation

  • FREAKING BADASS

  • SONG??

  • This movie is the new pinnacle of style!

  • Just picked up my copy today. Oh. BABY.

  • Bought it today. Worth every penny.

  • This look's like an amzing anime. I really like the art style and art direction in this movie. I'm definetely going to have to pick this up.

  • It looks like Deathrace and F-Zero mashed up into one movie

  • here because of ponies.

  • @SamsoniteMan4 who isnt *squee*

  • Just watched for 1080 and damn, I haven't seen anything this good for a looong time. Couldn't stare away from the screen 1 second. The animation is unbelievably good and the visual and ost quite refreshing.

  • Pretty freaking excited for this movie. Drawing looks amazing as well.

  • The story is a bit thin and reminds me of those found in old Eighties Sci-Fi anime, but the visuals much more than make up for any shortcoming in the story. Seriously, watch it for the visuals, its pure art. The animation alone makes this film worthwhile to purchase. It rather reminds me of Wing of Honneamise and Robot Carnival in animation quality if anyone remembers those films.

  • beautiful looking film!

  • watch this trailer while listening to beethoven's 9th symphony

  • watched it and LOVED IT!!

  • MAdHouse ROCKS i love Ninja Scroll I will have Redline tomorrow at 12 pm likely on dvd

  • just bought this movie from amazon as a blind buy came on YouTube to see wat the movie was like and seems my impulse buy was right this thing looks gorgeous streaming at 720p wats it gonna be like on blu ray transfer 1080P.

  • I love MADHOUSE for making this experimental film. The animation in this video is soooooooooooooo fluid. I watch deadman wonderland right after this and was like.... WHY IS NOTHING MOVING!!!.......during a fight scene.

  • @f22ace248 It sucks because I loved this movie but I REALLY don't think they would make another one because the time spent on this one.

  • Kinda reminds me of the FX Zero anime,only more polished.

  • wtf

  • This film is the new standered by which ALL animated features & anime should be judged. Seriously sad this thing tanked in Japan, just because it wasnt more otaku/perv pandering BS. Redline is a great film and i hope it gets the respect it deserves in the US & UK. Hell Madhouse (the company behind the film) needs more love in general.  Take a good look people THIS is how you make an anime, and a movie.

  • SPEED RACER on Crack 

  • "No, I want JP to win!"

  • Another good animated movie is Sword of the Stranger....must watch

  • @Mariose123

    When I was watching this SotS was the first thing to come to mind. Such an underrated movie.

  • @GarlandFraser

    I think the appeal of this movie is that it was hand drawn for 7 years.

    In other words, some of the best animation quality on the planet.

  • @KnightOfZero00 Fucking amazing. It's SO REFRESHING to see a modern anime that isn't a bunch of CGI shit. No one wants to animate anything anymore and would rather just make a bunch of lazy shit on a computer that completely clashes with anything that is hand drawn. This entire film looks hand drawn, and just coloured with computers.

  • @Mariose123 one of my favorites

  • @Mariose123

    wow after watching Redline I listened to you and saw sword of the stranger, both amazing, you have awesome taste in animated movies, do you have any other suggestions?

  • @Mariose123 it might be good, but not on the same level as Redline ;)

  • I really like this anime, I think I have a new fav... The world is so immersive.

  • ordered it yesterday from UK, already watched it 3 times before buying it! :D

  • Fuck! speed racer, this is the shit right here. I gotta check this out.

  • Just saw this, cant believe something this badass was made or exists.

  • Wow, looks cool!

  • The MCM Expo brought me here...

  • seriously they should show students this to show what 2d animation i still capable of, though the writing slowed down allot mid way as a whole its one of the best looking films ive seen.

  • has it been dubbed already?

  • Madhouse ?

  • @sandyjuventus yeh pretty sure this is madhouse, read it took em something like 7 years, over 300000 animations cells and went way over budget. Hope they made enough back since i read it didn't do to well in japan and looks amazing. 

  • @AeonRain190 they didnt make this gorgeous piece of art for money, is what i think.

  • @Cptraktorn

    It's still a tragedy though. You have great pieces of animation like this bombing and trash like Infinite Stratos selling like crazy.

  • @tastynuggets21 Fucking pieces of shit moe faggots.

  • @Mnemosyn3

    Moe's been around a long while though. Why it's so prevalent now I'm not really sure.

  • IS THIS BY THE TEAM THAT WORKED ON AFRO SAMURAI?

  • @JakariHanma no this is by the seam team who worked on the animatrix

  • @MrJuskom I thought they worked on Afro Samurai AND Animatrix, but im pretty sure the samurai sequence is done by the people that work on afro samurai.

  • HOLY SHIT THIS ART WORK, WHAT IN GODS NAME HAVE I BEEN MISSING OUT ON?!?!?

  • They look HIGH!!!

  • but none the less, its was so overwhelming in certain departments it still probably takes a place in my top 10 favorite animated movies, and perhaps my top 10 favorite movies of all time. its that good.

  • this is my review. bottom line the movie if incredible! if you have any interest in animation then watch this movie, since the art and animation is where most of the power comes from in this film. that aside the concept is brilliant in my opinion, i dont think the whole racing angle is explored enough as far as the animation world is concerned. the plot is sorta weak though. it starts of strong and ends that way to. its a few significant things in the middle that make the story seem off.

  • i just finished watching it

    ITS BEST FUCKING ANIME MOVIE IVE SEEN!!!!!

  • The song is called Redline Day

  • If stuff like Gurren Lagann was animated with this kind of quality.....

  • @FunkyAsianGuy

    Dude, the budget would be the GDP of a small country. And Gurren Lagann had great animation, I don't know what you're complaining about.

  • @tastynuggets21 I realize it would be impossible because the budget would be crazy high, and I'm not complaining, I'm just saying it would have been amazing IF it was animated with this quality.

  • the song is so good

  • Love the mix between comicbook and anime style of this, reminds me of when i was a child and watched speed racer :)

  • whats the song playing?

  • reminds me of Tengen Toppa Gurrem Lagann

  • wats the name of the song ? its kick ass 

  • wacky racers anime version :D

  • ^_^ personaly i really dont care for mlp it was a flash video on /f/ call flutterline_swfed_720_1.swf that brought me here. and all your comments aimed at me just made me laugh harder. also this looks like something i wouldn't pay to watch. if it shows up on net flix vod maybe i'll give it a watch but as it stands not my thing.

  • @TatsuZZmage

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts on a Movie you haven't watched

  • THIS MOVIE IS AWESOME HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

  • Well... the animation is cool looking, but I don't think the music really goes with this trailer.

    o btw ponies also brought me here ;)

  • This whole movie is just a huge, unending climax. Seriously. Fuckin' amazing.

  • Finally they started making good anime movies again. The 2000's sure were bland.

  • sorry, mlp got me here as well. as normal animation viewer aspect/respect, REDLINE looks amazing

  • I LOVE THIS FUCKING VIDEO!!

  • Yep, ponies led me to watch this movie as well. And it was awesome.

  • Something's released in the UK before America, thats rare

  • It's finally coming to the US! :D

  • Just got finished watching it, loved it, superb anime i give it a hefty 10 outta 10 it was soo good, that good that its in my top 3, it was really really good, but akira still holds my number 1 spot, so this is gonna be my 3 fav animated movie of all time. if your reading this comment and have not watched it, just google it and watch it its so amazing.

  • holy fuck, i need to watch this. the animation quality looks amazing.

  • oh wait what its already out in the uk, good thing i live here :D

  • ponies brought me here, what a shame i didn't know about this amazing anime long time ago.

  • @TatsuZZmage Hey, man. We don't swim in your toilet. Don't pee in our pool. Also; the joke's on YOU, there is in fact a hover vehicle in this.

  • @TatsuZZmage And F-Zero is 20 years old. Give it a rest already, grandpa.

  • one of the best anime movies out there, my number one spot so far.

  • i have no idea where these ponies have brought me, but know i feel compelled to watch the whole thing.

  • CONFOUND THESE PONIES THEY BE RACIN'

  • Ponies. Here. Brought. Me.

  • Well, you all should have seen this coming at some time or another; Ponies brought me here.

  • @ApocalypticMike ...ah goddammit.

  • @ilvanezzo Putting a video on YouTube has its risks, you know?

  • @ApocalypticMike They brought me here to, and now have me interested in seeing this movie.

  • @tehgamer14 so you too, saw flutterline and just up and searched for the movie?

    i know the feel bro.

  • @ApocalypticMike The best part of your comment is you used a semicolon. Awesome.

  • @flarecard I try my best.

  • @ApocalypticMike

    - ponies did not infact bring me here... what ponies brought you here?

  • @MasterHypnose My Little Pony, of course. What other ponies are there?

  • @ApocalypticMike

    - I meant the specific link/video schmartiepants -_-

  • @MasterHypnose Some random EqD post from 4 weeks ago. Reply time FAILURE (on both our ends).

  • "initial D sucks"? WHAAAAT

  • The animation quality of this was something I have never ever seen before.

  • @MrCl1nt mostly because this animation quality was never ever done before

  • one of the best anime movies i ever seen, fucking incredible

  • Seven years of production? Worthed every moment in creation for this visual wonder!

  • @Raeliquae Indeed. Too bad Japan has shit taste in anime, so Redline didn't sell well..

  • @CaptainZETTA So true, Wing of Honneamise or Jin-Roh are prime examples of great anime in both visuals and story but were just not popular in Japan...but each to their own. Then again the two I mentioned do lack the blatant fan service, echii, tentacle rape, demon rape, beast rape, mecha rape, normal rape, angst, infinite repeating same storyline and other "tastes" that are so prevalent in so much of the anime these days.
