They're helping the industry, while helping themselves (implying it will pay off) - a move worth my praise. And I'd really like to have a theatre showing anime instead of normal films where I live, but... yup, impossible.

Wow, thats pretty awesome! Leave it to ufotable to do something so innovative and promising. I hope it turns out well, that area is a little bit secluded since its on a Shikoku island.

Godspeed.
"Tonight, I sit in the eye of the storm. As fire boils around me, I press forward, winds and lightning lashing my wings. I am no match for what I face. Yet I will not back down, and though fear may place it's stranglehold on my heart, courage will see me through. With tears in my eyes, I hit full throttle. My engines become an inferno, and my weapons light up, awaiting my command.

If I die tonight, I will do so fighting for everything I believe in."

I remember this similar type of 'animation only' cinema that has opened in 2004, failed epically. Since no there are much more pro-found otaku fanbase + more movies than before, I can see this succeeding.
