THE NEXT GENERATION 1 The Next Generation Patlabor Episode 1

“Sandaime Shutsugeki seyo!“ The third generation of SV2 spends most of their days slacking off. One day, however, they receive a dispatch request for the first time in a long time, and their AV-98 Ingram goes up against a Kuratas. This is a partial remake of the first episode of the Early Days OVA, and one of the four episodes where Oshii was both director and screenwriter. In the theatrical and video releases, it is part of “Chapter 1“ alongside episode 0.
