These two new official visual images were released earlier today during the Taiwan International Manga Expo. The images were distributed to the event goers as visual post cards.


The movie’s official website has also updated their image and now features the second image above, even though no new announcements about the movie have been announced.


Speaking of the second image above, remember those seaside images of the Patlabor taken by passers-by?
