THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Just watched this and came back from the theaters. Good thing they released this one in Korea almost simultaneously :) So, has anyone else seen it? Not gonna say much, but overall I liked the movie. Though the middle part it kinda did feel a bit boring... but oh well, I'd have to understand it's to get the tension higher for the climax :P I REALLY REALLY was reminded of Digimon Adventure - Bokura no War Game watching this movie, (which is by the same director fyi) ...the OZ world itself, the line colors in the world (brownish red) and the overall setting- how the computer system gets compromised and leads to world crisis... was kinda nostalgic. :) The interesting thing is how there is really a mobile service provider named OZ (=LG Telecom's 3G network) in Korea. No wonder why they took the chance to advertise their logo along with the distributors' and MADHOUSE logos in the beginning.. XD summary of the whole story in one sentence: a Math genius boy and a Koi-Koi genius girl save the world!! ^3^~♪

When teenage math prodigy Kenji solves a 2,056 digit math riddle sent to his cell phone, he unwittingly breaches the security barricade protecting Oz, a globe-spanning virtual world where millions of people and governments interact through their avatars, handling everything from online shopping and traffic control, to nuclear launch codes. Now a malicious AI program called Love Machine is hijacking Oz accounts, growing exponentially more powerful and sowing chaos and destruction in its wake. SUMMER WARS is a visual tour-de-force, with the amazing world of Oz as the highlight. Like the Internet as conceived by pop artist Haruki Murakami, Oz is a hallucinatory pixel parade of cool avatar designs, kung fu jackrabbits, toothy bears, and a bursting rainbow of colors. (GKIDS)
