Manganews Forum - PRESS RELEASE: Central Park Media Proud To Share In Recent Anime Press Coverage: "New York, NY (July 7, 2005) - Central Park Media is proud to announce that its anime releases as well as the acclaimed directors who created these works were mentioned by a number of high profile national and international media outlets in their coverage of the anime industry over the past weeks.

One of the most prominent of such articles was a cover story in Business Week highlighting the work of anime’s legendary creators and producers including Osamu Tezuka (creator of “Black Jack”), Hayao Miyazaki (whose Studio Ghibli produced “Grave of the Fireflies”), Katushiro Otomo (creator of “Roujin Z”), and Mamoru Oshii (director of “Patlabor - The Mobile Police” & “Urusei Yatsura Movie 2: Beautiful Dreamer”). With such top talent behind each of these releases, it is not surprising that they are among Central Park Media’s all time bestsellers.

In addition, the critically acclaimed “Grave of the Fireflies” was included on MTV’s list of Japan’s most groundbreaking animated films and placed second on Anime News Network’s list of the top 25 favorite anime titles. These are just the latest of a lengthy list of kudos for this powerful anime classic.

"Grave of the Fireflies" is awesome!! Who's surprised? Just look at the "who's who" that produced it.
