best billboard ever.

The Movie announcement reminds me of the Klonoa The Movie billboard easter egg in Ridge Racer Type 4, so to an extent, Bandai Namco fulfilled the promise they made back in 1998!

I didn't know that was a thing! 
Sounds like a pretty long promise, but one fulfilled. On the 20th anniversary, even.

I knew I was late by the time I'm posting this, but, OH MY GOODNESS!

I would never dream of seeing something new with the Klonoa brand, let alone a feature length Klonoa anime movie!

I was in school taking my lesson when the announcement showed up on Twitter, I was really happy and excited about it , and it really kept me awake for the rest of the day (I only slept for 2 hours the night before the announcement due to school work).

Ridge Racer predicted the future, did it? :3

Not really related to the movie, but apparently Hideo Yoshizawa was given this cake at his retirement party this year. Maybe this means we'll be getting snippets of Klonoa-related things more often from him in the future? Including things involving the movie?

Translator-ese interpretation
"Maybe I'll tweet every Saturday because it's long-awaited.

This is a special cake that, when the staff of former subordinates and Klonoa gave us when they gathered during my farewell party, made a surprise appearance March 31 this year.
Indeed creators population, high quality!
This was really happy."

Oh hey, I'm ba-

WOAH WHAT'S THIS ?
Never thought I'd see the day - that is so cool ! 

2016's been a great year for film, animation, games,
too bad it's been the absolute worst for everything else though...
Oh well

[Klonoa-kun]

KLONOA'S NOT DEAD!!!!! WAHOO!!!!!!!!

[Deeptron]

AWWW HECK YEA DUDE!!! 

Anyways, i really hope that this means that Klonoa might return, i mean, why would they suddenly dig up a videogame series thats been dead for 8 years only to make a movie? I don't want to sound dumb but considering that Bandai Namco it's on the Nintendo Switch third party support list, maybe this movie might help as advertisement for a new Klonoa game? One can only hope...

I mean this in a nice way...
TeamHensen DONT KILL KLONOA 
Instead grab namco by the neck and demend a new klonoa game.

Noticed nobody posted about this yet but Ariga posted this last night.

2016年12月はクロノア19周年ですよ...！ 実際の一作発売記念日は、お仕事に明け暮れてて今更な時期になってしまいましたが、19周年めでたいっ！ アニメの方ですが、あまり勝手に呟くと怒られちゃうので私からは自粛気味ではありますが、また可能な範囲で情報発信したいですね～

Ariga was a little late with his annual Klonoa anniversary drawing but finally got to do it.. he must be busy with a certain film.  But the appearance of Huepow, Joka, and Tat (along with a better look at Klonoa's new outfit) raises some questions... are they in the film too? Perhaps this film presents a mixture of Klonoa characters and worlds? Who knows...
