Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honnêamise
Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honnêamise( Japanese: 王立宇宙軍~オネアミスの 翼
Hepburn: Ōritsu Uchūgun: Oneamisu no Tsubasa) is a 1987 Japanese animated science fiction film written and directed by Hiroyuki Yamaga and co-produced by Toshio Okada.
Ryuichi Sakamoto, later to share the Academy Award for the soundtrack to" The Last Emperor", served as music director.
The film's story takes place on an alternate world where a disengaged young man, Shirotsugh, inspired by an idealistic woman named Riquinni, volunteers to become the first astronaut, a decision that draws them into both public and personal conflict.
The film was the debut work of anime studio Gainax, whose later television and movie series" Neon Genesis Evangelion" would achieve international recognition, and was the first anime produced by toy and game manufacturer Bandai, eventually to become one of Japan's top anime video companies.
Yamaga and Okada had become known through making amateur fan- oriented short films, particularly the" Daicon III and IV Opening Animations", but their pitch for" Royal Space Force" argued that growing the anime industry required a shift away from works that pleased fans on a surface level but reinforced their isolation, advocating instead for a different type of anime that attempted to engage with fans as human beings who shared in the alienation issues of a larger society.
The making of" Royal Space Force" involved a collaborative year- long design process using many creators, including some from outside the anime industry, to construct an elaborately detailed alternate world described as neither escapist nor dystopian, but" an attempt to approve existence."
" Royal Space Force" ’s collective approach to filmmaking, its deliberate rejection of established anime motifs, its visual complexity, and the general lack of professional experience among its staff were all factors in its chaotic production, while increasing uncertainty about the project led to what has been described as an attempt by its investors and producers to" fix" the film before release, imposing a late name change to" The Wings of Honnêamise," and a lavish but deceptive publicity campaign that included misleading advertising and a staged Hollywood premiere.
Although receiving a generally good reception among domestic anime fans and the industry upon its original 1987 Japanese release, including praise from Hayao Miyazaki, the film failed to make back its costs at the box office, but eventually became profitable through home video sales.
" Royal Space Force" did not receive an English- language commercial release until 1994, when Bandai licensed the film to Manga Entertainment.
A dubbed 35 mm version toured theaters in North America and the United Kingdom, during which time it received coverage in major newspapers but highly mixed reviews.
Since the mid-1990s, it has received several English- language home video releases, and various historical surveys of anime have regarded the film more positively; the director has stated his belief in retrospect that the elements which made" Royal Space Force" unsuccessful made possible the later successes of Studio Gainax.

Daicon III and IV Opening Animations
The Daicon III and IV Opening Animations are two short, anime, 8 mm films that were produced for the 1981 Daicon III and 1983 Daicon IV Nihon SF Taikai conventions.
They were produced by a group of amateur animators known as Daicon Film, who would later go on to form the animation studio Gainax.
The films are known for their unusually high production values for amateur works and for including numerous references to otaku culture, as well as its unauthorized appropriations of both the Playboy Bunny costume and the 1981 song "Twilight" by the English rock band ELO.
"Daicon III" was made by Hideaki Anno, Hiroyuki Yamaga and Takami Akai and "Daicon IV" credits twelve people, including Yamaga as the director and Anno and Akai as animation supervisors.
Despite the questionable legal status of the works, the production of "Daicon III" resulted in debts that were repaid by selling video tapes and 8mm reels of the production, the profits of which went to the production of "Daicon IV".
In 2001, the anime magazine "Animage" ranked the "Daicon" animations as the 35th of the "Top 100" anime of all time.
