Are they still working on this?

ABe said that they'd found a new director but that was years ago and has been the only news we've heard since Nakamura's death. They might be, but no news in almost two years can only be a bad thing.

That's a real shame

I'm going to sadly go with no.

ABe was never as in control and focused as Nakamura was on Despera, which would have been Nakamura's magnum opus I'd think.

We don't even know who the "new director" is.

Besides, there's no more room for things like Despera to get off the ground. The industry really stopped supporting stuff like this, that's why you don't so Chiaki J. Konaka working on much anymore.

>Despera never
>Cencoroll 2 never
>Aoki Uru never
>Dream Machine never
>PSG S2 never
>Eva 4.0 never
>Spice and Wolf S3 never
>Front Innocent episode 2 never
>Time of Eve continuation never

Although mythical things like Full Metal Panic S3 and Kizumonogatari happend, the list of anime that we wait to this day is always growing

Maybe we'll get it by 2020

why cant they make good anime anymore?

You will surely get the Despera soon, with MAPPA funding it with unlimited budget and Hiroshi Hamasaki taking over as director.

...Right after they release Dreaming Machine.

I think your comment definitely applies to Yasuyuki Ueda, because he's never been able to exert such immense artistic control over any show as a producer since he did lain or Texhnolyze, much less work on any kind of passion project (a look at any of his more recent producer credits is evidence enough).

It seems the main reason Konaka wasn't around was just that he took a break from the anime industry altogether. He indicated that he had just been writing for the past few years, and Japanese wiki says that he had or has a screenwriting gig at a film school.

Still dunno where Shishou Series is though.
