A full trailer for the fifth chapter of The Next Generation -Patlabor- live-action film series, which contains the eighth episode "Enkyori Sogeki 2000" (Long-distance sniping 2000) and ninth episode "Crocodile Dungeon" is now online with its promotional poster featuring Kasha/Ekaterina Krachevna Kankaeva played by Rina Ota holding a sniper rifle.
As the fans of the series know well, an underground watercourse was used twice in the old anime series: the 38th episode of the TV anime series and 13th episode of the second OVA series, and Shigeo Shiba played by Shigeru Chiba actually mentions these incidents in the trailer. So the ninth episode is a kind of sequel to these episodes with a taste of POV films?
The eighth episode is directed by Takanori Tsujimoto (ep.2,4) and the ninth by Kiyotaka Taguchi (ep.0, 10).
The fifth chapter hits selected Japanese theaters on October 18 for a limited time of two weeks.
