The world's first 3DCG and cosplay photo book "Doronjo Monthly" is released! Fusion of CG and live-action, an interview with Nekomu Otogi
Recently, 3DCG has been gaining more and more presence in animation expression, and now we have information about a new character photo book that uses this technology. The book, "Doronjo Monthly," is a cosplay photo book that combines 3DCG, live action, and illustrations of Doronjo, a character from the nationally popular "Yatterman. We spoke with professional cosplayer Otogi Nekomu, who modeled for the book, and producer Kazuhide Miyamoto about how the photo book was created and how it was a world first.
Why did anime characters appear in the popular "Monthly Series" photo book?
─ ─ What was the reason for Mr. Miyamoto, who has produced the popular "Gekkan" series of photo books featuring various actresses and idols, to now work on a series of anime characters?
─ So this photo book is aimed not only at fans of the characters themselves, but also at those who like the expressive form of photo books?
Miyamoto: That is exactly what I mean.
───What made you choose Doronjo from the nationally known character "Yatterman" for this collection?
─ Nekomu, what was your first impression of taking on the role of Doronjo, a large character, as an official cosplayer?
So, you are not just going to wear the costume and act in it, but you are also going to create the costume yourself?
─ Earlier, you mentioned that you "admire" the characters. As a cosplayer, is "admiration" for the character an important factor?
─ ─ What do you find attractive about Doronjo from your point of view?
Miyamoto: He is a strong character (laughs). When "Yatterman" was first broadcast, bondage was not yet a civil right. In a way, he was like a character from the underground world, which was a bit of a surprise.
