Eve no Jikan act03 Streaming, act04 Delayed

Another couple of months went by since the previous "act" of Yoshiura Yasuhiro's ongoing sci-fi animation work Eve no Jikan (Time of Eve), so it's now time for act03: KOJI&RINA. This new episode is streaming for free on Yahoo! Japan (in Japan only, and for one week only, not one month as previously announced), and also starting tomorrow from 5 PM (PST) over on Crunchyroll, with English subtitles.



Act01 debuted on August 1, with act02 following precisely two months later. Following this freight train of thought, one might assume that act04 will be out in eary February... however that is not the case anymore. As announced on the official website, the release of act04 is being postponed until April 2009, "in order to maintain the quality of the "Time of Eve" series". Well, if that's what it takes to get more visual orgasms from Yoshiura-kun, so be it!

The guy, may we remind you, is the same director to whom we owe another couple of sublime animation shorts: Mizu no Kotoba (Aquatic Language) from 2002, and Pale Cocoon from 2005, among others. If you haven't seen Pale Cocoon in particular, I strongly urge you get hold of it!
