The anime community mourned the untimely demise of Mr. Takeyuki Kanda, a renowned director of impactful animations such as VIFAM, on July 27, 1996. Born on August 11, 1943, he left behind a remarkable legacy in the industry. In remembrance of his outstanding contributions, a brand-new TV series for VIFAM was aired in 1998. Running from March 21, 1998, to October 3, 1998 (in the Kansai area), this captivating series spans 26 episodes. Much like the intriguing mystery of "Twelve People Disappeared," this instalment serves as a mesmerizing sidestory. However, fans will delight in the addition of several new elements: fresh characters, exciting RVs, and much more. The narrative of this VIFAM series finds its place between episodes 22 to 26. Taking on a three-part structure consisting of Act I (episodes 1-14), Interlude (episodes 15-18), and Act II (episodes 19-26), each segment offers its own unique flavor. While Act I and Act II may not share a significant connection, it's important to note that this particular arc is often regarded as the "New Testament" of VIFAM, though some critics question its authenticity, labeling it as an apocrypha or even a pseudo-VIFAM. To truly grasp the reasons behind such varying opinions, one must witness this enthralling story firsthand.
