Production
While the original Tachiguishi was directed by Mamoru Oshii, only two of the short stories will be directed by him in Shin Onna. The remaining four will be directed by Makoto Kamiya, Kenji Kamiyama, Takanori Tsujimoto, and Hiroaki Yuasa.[1] More changes from the original include a change from Oshii's creation of Super-livemation to a mix between live action and CG. Also instead of focusing on male characters, Shin-Onna will feature mainly the female counterparts hence the title which roughly translates as The True-Female Amazing Lives of Fast Food Grifters. The English release will go under the name The Women of Fast Food. Shin Onna Tachiguishi Retsuden is part of the Kerberos Saga under the Tachiguishi Arc.
