The Animatrix Network is an anime & manga fan club located in the Southwest suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. We usually meet on the third Saturday of each month (except when holidays or conventions coincide). The meetings are free and open to the public. Join us for a day filled with anime.

This site provides news, reviews, commentaries, and previews of the world of anime and everything it inspires, such as live-action films, comics, music, art, and other weird things to enjoy and contemplate.

Star Wars Anime Fan Film...

STAR WARS: Heir to the Empire
Star Wars: Heir to the Empire is one of, if not the most popular story from the Star Wars EU. Brought to us by author Timothy Zahn, I and others have long dreamed of seeing this story, and others from the EU, adapted into a visual medium. 

This is first episode of Heir to the Empire, brought to you in a 90's animation/anime style. This ~18 min cut is what I originally intended to be the first episode. The 7 min cut has now been retitled as a teaser.
