Is that site trying to say it's by the same people as GiTS?

Or at least one of the three... what i assume are studios.

its from IG, studio 4C, and shaft all three companies have different stories to work on.

For information on the quality to expect
IG: Ghost in the shell
4C: Amazing nuts (youtube it)
Shaft: Maria holic


"The first series will feature Pit as the main character in an action-oriented setting with Medusa’s minions and Thanatos, the god of death. This series will run for three episodes. The second series, which will run for two episodes, focuses on the comical adventures of Palutena. The final of the shorts is a one-episode look at Medusa’s actions up to her return in Kid Icarus: Uprising. All three series will be in full 3D. You can check after the break for some promotional artwork of the animated shorts."

Going by what the studios usual work is and by the art given studio 4C is doing the first one, shaft the second, and IG the final one. It promises to be rather awesome.

-edit-
I derped so hard its on the source page xD oh well

I like Studio 4C (they did Mind Game, which is a veritable mindfuck movie, but very very nice).

Wasn't this what they announced for the Nintendo Video stuff at the 3DS conference? That looks like one of the pictures they showed when they announced it. They are gonna have a bunch of animated Kid Icarus stuff in the Nintendo Video app.

Shaft made Madoka, so I've got high hopes for their take on Kid Icarus.

Though I guess Shinbo isn't part of the team this time, which is a shame. >->
