Imagine
this: lights dim, excitement coursing through every seat, and you surrounded by
people as passionate about the adventures of Luffy and company as you are. Next
Saturday, May 17th, you have an event you can't miss, because the mk2
Palacio de Hielo theaters in Madrid and mk2 Nervión Plaza in
Seville have prepared something epic: a double marathon featuring two of the
most spectacular films in the One Piece universe. And believe me, watching
them on a giant screen isn't the same as watching them at home .
Two
films full of action, excitement and adrenaline in every scene
The day
kicks off at 6:00 PM with One Piece: Stampede . If
you've ever dreamed of seeing all those characters you love (and maybe a few
you don't) thrown into a frantic race toward a legendary treasure ,
this movie is for you. It's packed with explosions, unexpected alliances, and
crazy situations that will make your heart race from the very first
scene .
Then, at
8:00 PM, it's time for One Piece Film: Red . Here the
excitement takes an unexpected turn thanks to the story of Uta, a
character who manages to touch your heartstrings and generate an atmosphere
filled with songs you won't easily forget. Epic music, emotional twists, and a
story that delves into the relationship between Luffy and Shanks. If
you leave the theater humming a song, don't say I didn't warn you .
More
than movies, a shared experience among fans
Do you know
the best part about this marathon? Before each film, there will be live
presentations that add an extra layer of excitement . In Madrid,
you'll have Juan Pérez and José Arce, true experts in the One Piece universe,
talking about the films and sharing theories. And in Seville, the Viva Er Manga
collective will do the same, livening up the atmosphere even more and spreading
their enthusiasm to all attendees .
Oh, and of
course, there will be raffles with exclusive gifts that you can only
get there . Because let's face it, nothing excites a true fan
more than taking home something unique related to their favorite characters .
animek2:
A new stage to enjoy the best anime all year round
The
marathon is just the beginning. This initiative is part of a larger project
called animek2 , a new project that seeks to bring the
best of Japanese cinema to movie screens year-round . And not just
well-known films, but also rare releases, classics, and exclusive premieres.
For
example, you'll be able to enjoy a complete retrospective dedicated to
Satoshi Kon , the genius behind influential films such as Paprika , Tokyo
Godfathers , and Perfect Blue . There will also be
new releases like Kaiju No. 8 and the fun and
supernatural Anzu, the Ghost Cat .
And if you
like something different, you can discover rarities like Robot Taekwon
V , an unusual South Korean film that pays homage (and a little more)
to Mazinger Z, where you'll see a robot that fights with kicks. Yes,
just as it sounds .
