Question:
Do you know if there are any plans to make a sequel to Steamboy (2004)? It was a great movie with lots of potential for more story-building and character development. I found an old news article, also from that same year, with some talk about a sequel, but nothing else has surfaced since then.
I think steampunk will always be a niche market sub-segment of sci-fi anime, but I think it has potential. There are people outside of anime and its culture that steampunk mod their computers, there is steampunk jewelry, and it has appeared as background material for several dozen popular sci-fi shows.
