Who is Mr. Outside? Who will win his twisted game? How did Akira Takizawa become a pawn in the mastermind’s hidden plan? The answers are revealed and the conspiracy unravels in writer/director Kenji Kamiyama`s EDEN OF THE EAST: PARADISE LOST (????? ???? Paradise Lost, Higashi no Eden Gekijooban II: Paradise Lost, 2010), the thrilling feature-length conclusion to the acclaimed anime EDEN OF THE EAST (?????, Higashi no Eden, 2009). Takizawa returns to Japan and hits the ground running. As he makes his final moves against the remaining Seleção, he fights to uncover the secrets of his mysterious past. The deck is stacked against him; he faces accusations of terrorism, and the truth behind his ties to the Prime Minister could be his undoing. Takizawa’s not the only one feeling the heat. Saki Morimi’s high-tech crew is in the crosshairs, too – along with every citizen in the nation. Truly, this is it. Win or lose. Live or die. Either way, Mr. Outside’s game ends now.
