Not-So-Daily Link of the Day II: Sora no Otoshimono television anime series.
Last year's animated Suu Minazuki's Sora no Otoshimono modern fantasy manga created a stir with its ending animation footage, which featured a flock of flying panties in formation. Nojiri wrote the novel inspiration of the Rocket Girls anime, but he was not directly involved with the Sora no Otoshimono anime. Nevertheless, he was inspired by Sora no Otoshimono to supervise the mass production of model ornithopters (flapping-wing airplanes) shaped like flying panties. The ornithopters will launch at Sora Fes! for 1,000 yen ($11), but each 2,000-yen ($22) ticket to the event will include one ornithopter.
Besides Nojiri, the event will host the other creators of the flying panties ornithopter, Kazuhiko Hachiya (the artist best known for TBS Television announcer Jun Suzuki. There will be a workshop for building ornithopter kits and a discussion with Nojiri, Hachiya, and Suzuki.
