Dennou Coil
This Japanese science fiction anime shows a near future where semi-immersive augmented reality technology is just starting to penetrate the public. Denn Coil, Coil— A Circle of Children When the series begins, we learn that the city of Daikoku, which serves as the setting for the show, is rapidly becoming an AR hub with a rapidly expanding virtual infrastructure. Using AR glasses and a range of illegal software tools, techniques, and virtual pets, the game follows a group of children as they try to solve the secrets of the city that is half real and half virtual. With Denn Coil, Japanese animator Mitsuo Iso makes his directorial debut after working on the project for more than a decade. NHK Educational TV broadcast it on May 12, 2007. Denn Coil was eagerly anticipated because of the animators involved in its production and the exceptionally high-profile television broadcast time slot.
