Artist Profile

｜JILL MITSUNOKI

A vegetable lover and artist.

She has loved singing since she was a child, and became more and more absorbed in the wonderful world of music. However, one day, her throat began to fail and she could no longer sing.

He withdrew and shut everything out, but he thought that if he gave up now, his life with nothing but singing would be over, so he joined RIOT MUSIC in order to face music more seriously and break free from his withdrawal.

Her friends call her "a strange person". He loves vegetables and hot home-cooked meals.

YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@jillmitsunoki/

｜RANZE TOKINIWA

A bread lover and artist.

She started playing the piano at an early age and discovered the joy of music. She longed to be an idol or an artist, and it was natural for her to listen to music all day long.

When she was a student, she started her activities on the Internet and for the first time had people other than her family listen to her singing, which gave her a positive feeling toward singing.

Although he had avoided giving his all for a reason, he decided to join RIOT MUSIC because he wanted to be honest about his feelings toward his music.

He is not a man of many words, so he is misunderstood as "mysterious. He loves bread so much that he tours bakeries.

FAVii Meet" securely connects talent and fans

The traditional style of "guessing activities" to support the activities of celebrities has shifted in recent years from a style of watching and enjoying the talent's activities in one direction to a style of enjoying interactive communication with the emergence of VTubers and streamers.
In the midst of these social changes, there is a need for a safe and casual place to foster a "special and private time of connection" between celebrities and fans, as typified by a "handshake session" at a real event.

Service Features

FAVii Meet is a one-on-one communication platform that connects talent and fans. Fans can easily participate through their smartphones, and talent can hold talk events in a familiar environment. In addition, a variety of support functions can be used to increase engagement with fans.

Simply by connecting a PC and a webcam, a 1-on-1 talk event can be easily held.

FAVii Meet is all you need.
Talent who wish to hold an event can create the event, sell tickets, hold the talk event, and confirm the results all with FAVii Meet alone.
FAVii Meet also offers a full range of functions to support event management, such as the ability to note and reference the content of conversations in consideration of repeat visitors after the second time, and to manage the time schedule of the event in seconds.
Fans can experience everything from ticket purchase to 1-on-1 talk at FAVii Meet.

(3) Reach out to global fans
FAVii Meet is available in Japanese, English, and Thai. Various payment methods for ticket purchases are also supported, making the service available to a large number of fans across borders.
More languages and payment methods will be added in the future.

(4) Safe and secure design to support activities
The system is equipped with an account management function for multiple talents, a ban function to protect talents, and a call monitoring function. In the event of trouble during a talk event, conversations can be muted or terminated through the FAVii Meet app.

(5) Reliable operational track record
The system has already been released in Thailand and has achieved stable operation.

Outline of the ending theme "Migihidari

This song is written and composed by meiyo, a singer-songwriter who has provided music to many famous artists. It is an alternative pop tune with playful lyrics and phrases that make you want to hum along. Please enjoy this "quirky and cute" song that is full of pop and worldview, as if the characters have stepped out of the world of the work and started dancing.

Comment from Yuka Nagase

This is the first anime song I've sung in my life, and it was written by meiyo, who has been a great help to me for a long time. I am very happy.
The storyline is very heavy and there are many fierce battles, so I hope this song will be a place of relaxation for you and the characters, and be like a radio gymnastics for you.
Please put on your L and R earphones and enjoy the song!

▼ Comment from Mr. meiyo

The last boss of the "Nozui" student has appeared! I am meiyo, and I wrote the lyrics for the ED theme "Migi Hidari", sung by Yuka Nagase.
The song is sung by Yuka Nagase. I had the opportunity to write a song for her when I was an indie singer, and she sang it for me.
The director, Yuya Horiuchi, is actually a classmate of mine from high school. He was a member of my first copy band. We have been competing in our respective fields, but now we have met again in a way that fate has brought us together and completed the song "Migi Hidari", which is based on the motif of a certain character, with its enigmatic play on languages and unique floating sound. We hope you enjoy it.

Message from "Inuyo

I have been doing all the work by myself, but during the recent crowdfunding campaign, I was concerned that my usual video contributions would be neglected. As we continue to challenge new things, we expect to be faced with new things all the time, so we decided to participate in the project with RIONECTION, a company we trust, to support our activities side by side.
With the support of RIONECTION, I will continue to deliver my entertainment to my fans and aim to be noticed in the VTuber industry.
Thank you very much for your support.

Glass mouse pad that resists dirt and abrasion and protects beautiful art
AMICIS original glass mouse pad is a high-quality glass mouse pad with excellent usability, stability, and durability despite its total thickness of 2.0 mm.

The durability of the glass was also tested by performing a vertical drop test three times with a 32g steel ball at a height of 80cm. This is a reliable durability that can be used for a long time.

* Please refrain from using this product with a glass mouse sole.

In addition, Brave group Korea Inc. has been established as a new base of operations in Korea.

Purpose and Background

Brave group has a mission to "break through the hearts of 8 billion people" with the goal of "bringing the Japanese spirit of adventure to the world," and is developing multiple businesses in the areas of IP Production (VTuber business), IP Platform, and IP Solution, which are highly compatible with the VTuber business, in Japan and overseas.

In September 2024, we announced "Brave global capital," an investment project that includes business integration and capital and business alliance, in order to build an ecosystem that maximizes the potential and profitability of IP. (*1)

South Korea's VTuber market is the third largest in the world after Japan and the U.S., and has a large presence, partly because of the know-how of fan community formation cultivated through the success of K-POP idols, and in fact, virtual idol groups have won first place in Korean terrestrial music programs. StelLive is a virtual idol group that has actually won first place in a Korean terrestrial music program.

StelLive is a VTuber production company incorporated in April 2023 and headed by "GANGZI"(*2), a female streamer with over 700,000 registered YouTube channel users, and is rapidly growing in the Korean VTuber market. Currently, the company has 9 talents, a YouTube channel with over 1.8 million subscribers, and over 1.5 million followers on CHZZK(*3), and a pop-up event held in May 2025 with a total of 9,000 visitors. (*As of July 2025)

So far, Brave group has provided support to StelLive, including 3D model and 3D content production, through its business alliance.
Going forward, while maintaining StelLive's operational policies and management structure as before, the Brave group will promote StelLive's business growth from multiple angles by further strengthening its production system and maximizing the use of the Brave group's assets, including merchandising and goods sales.

I still vividly remember the beginning of my relationship with Brave group. StelLive has been nurturing our dreams as a company where stars gather and illuminate each other with their own colors. We have great expectations for expanding the thoughts and directions we have cherished so far even farther and deeper together with Brave group.
We have already taken on many challenges through our business alliance, and I hope that we can continue to maintain our axis without losing the color of StelLive as we join the group.
I hope you will continue to warmly watch over StelLive's progress. Thank you for everything.

처음 Brave group과 연이 닿았던 때가 아직도 생생해요. 작은 대화로 작된 만남이 점점 신ervice로 이어졌고, 이제는 한 팀으로 함께하게 게게되어 정말 기쁘고 설렙니다. StelLive는각자의 색이 빛나는 별들모여 서로를 비춰주는 회사로 꿈을 키워왔습니다. She동안 지켜온각과 방향성을 Brave group과 함께 더 멀리, 더 깊게 펼칠 수 있을거라는 기대가 큽니다. 이미 업무제휴를 통해 더 많은 도전을 할 수 있었고, 그룹에 합류한 이후에서 StelLive의 색을 잃지 않고 중심을 중심을 갈나수 있기원합니다.

StelLive의 여정을 따뜻하게 지켜봐 주세요. 항상 감사합니다.

The design is based on the motif of a "box that can take out anything" and is linked to the "i" in the text to give users a clear image of what the service is all about.

▼ About the typography

The hexagonal shape of the "i" part of the logo is a symbol of "connection" and a silhouette of a box, which was chosen to convey the image of delivering a variety of products to people all over the world. The two lines connecting the hexagon represent the "Web (virtual)" and the "world (real)," and express the image of the company as a "bridge across countries" that transmits products not only within Japan but also to the rest of the world.

]]> Brave group begins recruiting companies to advertise in Roblox Popular World! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/90768/ Tue, 20 May 2025 02:00:34 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/90768/ (Head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Keito Noguchi; hereinafter "Brave group"), a content label specializing in metaverse platforms, is seeking companies to advertise in the "Daruma Game" game on the globally popular metaverse gaming platform "Roblox. BEverse, a content label specializing in metaverse platforms, is recruiting media companies that own virtual space on Roblox and companies that advertise on the "Daruma Game," a game within the globally popular Roblox metaverse gaming platform. Companies that place advertisements will be able to use a tool provided by NEC Corporation ("NEC") to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements on Roblox. This will make it possible to obtain analysis data on advertising effectiveness in the metaverse, which has been difficult to obtain in the past. (Head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yuichi Kita, a wholly owned subsidiary of Brave group, Inc.
We invite you to experience the unprecedented measurement of advertising effectiveness in the metaverse space.

Changes in Advertising Experience and the Potential of Metaverse Advertising

The nature of advertising has changed dramatically in recent years. In the wake of the Corona disaster, expectations have been rising for digital advertising via smartphones and other devices, in place of physical advertising such as street and traffic ads.

Conventional Web advertising displays video or still images in a fixed frame within a page, but metaverse advertising can provide a more immersive experience. In particular, advertising in the metaverse space allows for expressions that are difficult to achieve in reality.
For example, 3D advertisements that show the world of a product or brand in front of the viewer, or interactive advertisements that change according to the user's attributes and behavior, can provide memorable experiences.
Furthermore, the challenges of reality advertising, such as installation costs, land-specific regulations, and material costs, are greatly reduced in the metaverse. No printing or physical work is required, and there are no time zone restrictions.
For advertisers, the Metaverse is a flexible and efficient advertising environment.

About Data for Measuring Advertising Effectiveness

While expectations for metaverse advertising are growing, it is difficult to measure detailed advertising effectiveness as with Web advertising, and there has been a need for a tool that can visualize advertising effectiveness in detail.
To meet this need, NEC developed a tool to measure advertising effectiveness on Roblox, and D1-Lab provided technical support.
This tool makes it possible to visualize the specific behaviors and interests of users, which were previously invisible in conventional metaverse advertising.

Examples of data that can be obtained
Number of active users who have been in contact with advertisements
Number of impressions, time spent on the site, etc.

As the first step in a demonstration experiment of this tool, we are seeking advertisers for the "Daruma Game," a game on the Roblox platform that has been accessed more than 6.5 million times in total. We invite you to experience the possibilities of new metaverse advertising.

Outline of Muhara Shoka Records

Muhara Shoka Records", which will be renamed "Blitz Wing" and will include seven members: Yori Matsunaga, Anzu Asakura, Miona Koh, Tomoyo Izuki, Shirase Shirakawa, Jill Mitsunoki, and Ranze Tokiniwa, is a new VSinger label established by RIOT MUSIC in May, 2022. With the concept of "working together with fans to fulfill their dreams through a wide range of activities," the label has been focusing on music and distribution activities.

On the occasion of the label's third anniversary, we have renamed the label and renewed its vision, logo, and official website with the aim of making our existing concept even stronger and clearer as the name of the label.


Spreading to "countless",
The origin" of virtual music

Blitz Wing will now be known as "Mu-Gensho Records.

The word "Hara" in "Mu-Gensho" is a combination of two thoughts.

The first is the meaning of "genesis," "origin," or "starting point.
We believe that the genre of virtual music spun by virtual artists is still in its infancy and in the process of development.

In MUJI RECORDS, artists can create a culture that improves the value of their music. It will be the "starting point" of the virtual music genre by virtual artists. This is what we intend to achieve.

The second meaning is as a "gem in the rough.
Since Blitz Wing, we have always believed in following the path of our artists. Our staff and artists work together as one to achieve our goals, and to create shining artists who will spread throughout the world from the "gemstone" of an artist.
Our aim is to make such a concept even stronger and clearer, and to engrave it in the name of the label.

The songs of the "gemstones" of artists with "countless" possibilities will be folded together to form "Sho".
We aim to create such a label.

Message from Genki Kubo (Kubo P), Director of RIOT MUSIC

This renewal is a project that all of our staff and unaltered artists are working on together in order to bring an end to the important past and start the future.
The VTuber industry tends to be extremely averse to change, but we are finally ready to take a big step forward and move forward without fear of change.
Our staff and artists will continue to hone their skills, grow and evolve, and create an experience that is more exciting than ever for our fans.
We look forward to your continued support of RIOT MUSIC.

]]> D1-Lab Offers Brave Engine in the Correspondence Course at Matsushogakuen High School https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/90470/ Thu, 10 Apr 2025 02:00:57 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/90470/ D1-Lab Inc. (Head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yuichi Kita, a wholly owned subsidiary of Brave group Inc. The "Brave Engine" is a virtual space engine for the "Brave Engine". The Brave Engine's virtual space provides a realistic user experience and communication functions to support student learning and interaction. In addition, we plan to offer a professional skill acquisition program based on the curriculum of "ME Campus" operated by D1-Lab.

Virtual School Building with Brave Engine

Communication Functions

Communication design is important for virtual spaces.
In the virtual school building provided by the Brave Engine, non-verbal expressions are possible through the free movement of avatars and emotive actions that take advantage of the 3D space.

This feature promotes natural communication by creating a sense of realism and immersion, and by compensating for pauses and atmosphere that cannot be conveyed through text or voice alone.
This functionality will be used in homerooms, interviews with students, and other remote communication.

Virtual Study Room to Support Learning

The "Virtual Study Room" was developed by D1-Lab to allow students to concentrate on their own study while being aware of others in the virtual space, in a form similar to that of a real study room.

The Virtual Self-Study Room supports self-directed learning through a time management function using a Pomodoro timer, an AI assistant function that provides consultation via chat, and a peer pressure effect that is stimulated by the efforts of those around them, all of which are unique to virtual learning.
These features motivate each student and support an effective and continuous learning experience.

Comment from Mr. Naoya Kamijo, Professor at Matsusho Gakuen

In the year 2025, Matsusho Gakuen will celebrate its 127th anniversary. During this time, the educational requirements of private schools have changed dramatically with the changing times. Currently, Japan is facing major social changes such as an accelerating birthrate decline and the post-Corona era, and a paradigm shift is required in school education. Not only students and families, but also schools and local communities as a whole are currently facing many challenges.
In order to solve these issues through the power of education, in April 2025, Matsusho Gakuen opened a new correspondence course on the Matsumoto University campus in collaboration with the university, based on the pillar of next-generation ICT education that is individually optimized to take advantage of individuality.
This correspondence course emphasizes encouraging independent learning according to each student's abilities and career plans. To achieve this, we have actively introduced DX-type education and adopted the "Brave Engine" to enhance learning support both on and off campus.
In addition to providing careful feedback in person, the Brave Engine also utilizes the Metaverse for home study, providing a virtual space where students can learn together with teachers and peers, thereby enabling continuous learning support. In addition, we can provide the same learning environment for students in both commuter and intensive courses for special and inquiry activities.
We are committed to "providing educational opportunities that leave no one behind" and "realizing a society that respects diversity" in order to develop new human resources that will support the local communities of the future. We will continue to contribute to the community, aiming to be a school that is needed by the times.

For inquiries regarding this matter, please contact the following
Contact: Naoya Kamijo, Matsusho Gakuen Senior High School, Matsusho Gakuen Educational Corporation
Phone: +81-263-33-1210 E-mail: nk@t.matsu.ac.jp

About the "ME Campus" Curriculum

As a future initiative of Matsushogakuen and D1-Lab, we plan to offer the ME Campus curriculum, an online learning program operated by D1-Lab, to students in the correspondence course and the full-time course.
The curriculum will be a restructured version of the existing ME Campus curriculum for high school students, and will aim to help them acquire the following specialized skills

Skills that can be acquired:
Practical CG modeling skills using VTuber models as subjects
Efficient presentation creation skills using generative AI
(*This is the curriculum that we are planning to offer at this time and is subject to change.

These curricula, which are in tune with the digital age, go beyond mere skill acquisition. We will provide students with opportunities to experience "how creators work" in the field of entertainment content so that each student can gain insights that will broaden his or her future options.
Through this special curriculum, we aim to provide an experience that will not only help students acquire skills, but also give them a chance to personalize their future by experiencing the real workflow.

Overview of "Brave Engine


The Brave Engine is a service development engine that supports the use of cutting-edge technology by companies and educational institutions. It can provide a flexible and customizable virtual space for educational institutions, and can be used for a wide range of purposes such as classroom management, holding events, and as a place for interactive learning.

Quickly build services utilizing cutting-edge technologies
Communication functions, management functions, and template assets using generative AI technology and 3D content technology are included as standard. By combining these, a variety of new and topical services can be built without requiring a long development period.

Creation of new user experiences
AI-based dialogue functions and interactive virtual spaces and objects are used to create new and unprecedented experiences. This creates a strong impression and engages users.

Expanding Accessibility
With AI avatars that are available 24 hours a day and virtual spaces that can be accessed from anywhere with a browser, service delivery can transcend geographic, temporal, and linguistic constraints. This will enable services to reach a wider range of users.

Background of the Establishment

Brave group has the mission of "Unleash the spirit of adventure in Japan and the world," and under the mission of "Unleash 8 billion hearts and minds," Brave group has established several businesses in the areas of IP Production (VTuber business), IP Platform and IP Solution, which have high affinity with the same area, and Incubation, We are also developing multiple businesses in the field of Incubation both in Japan and overseas.

As we have received numerous inquiries from companies in the western Japan area, we have decided to establish a branch office with the aim of realizing closer communication and strengthening our support.

Relationship between VTubers and Fans

Unlike conventional anime characters, VTubers with ideal visuals, voices, and talk skills can communicate interactively, fostering a sense of attachment and trust that easily leads to actions such as "guessing" and "support consumption" due to increased engagement.

]]> AMICIS begins selling high-quality glass mousepads created in collaboration with illustrators! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/89971/ Wed, 26 Feb 2025 03:00:37 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/89971/ (Headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Takayoshi Hoshi, hereinafter "Game & Co.", a wholly owned subsidiary of Brave group, Inc. (hereinafter "Game & Co."), a 100% subsidiary of Brave group, is developing the "AMICIS" brand, a brand of collaborative projects among IP, creators, and activists under the theme of "Together with Our Friends". The new glass mouse pad "inbox" series, a collaboration with popular illustrators sia, Youzuki, and Rio Gomano, went on sale on Tuesday, February 25, 2012.

Glass Mouse Pad "in box" Characteristics

The "in box" series is a glass mouse pad beautifully illustrated by three popular illustrators.
The large gamer-standard size of 19.3in x 16.5in uses Pulsar Gaming Gears' Superglide Glass Mousepad V2.
It is excellent for viewing, easy operation and maintenance.

Original illustration by Pulsar Gaming Gears


The "in box" series glass mousepads feature original illustrations newly drawn in collaboration with three popular illustrators.
The designs are finished with gorgeous and cute illustrations of characters and flowers wrapped around them.
The three types of products to be released this time are flowers and colors that remind us of spring, wrapped in a flower box along with the characters.

Adopting the Superglide Glass Mousepad V2 model
Pulsar Gaming Gears' Superglide Glass Mousepad V2 features a 2.5mm thick (1.5mm aluminosilicate tempered glass + 1mm silicone rubber) construction and a smooth glass surface with a unique finish.
In order to maintain the beautiful colors and definition of the original illustrations and to achieve seamless mouse operability, we aimed for a thinness that fits comfortably in the hand while retaining the durability provided by tempered glass. In addition, the glass mouse pad is easy to maintain and can be wiped clean at any time.

The characteristics of glass mousepads do not cause rubbing or color fading that occurs with cloth or plastic mousepads. Illustrations trapped in the glass can be enjoyed as beautiful as ever.

The back of the mouse pad is molded with high-density silicone rubber for maximum adhesion and stability, reducing the risk of the glass mouse pad shifting during gameplay.
The included mouse sole provides a smoother and more comfortable experience.

Enjoy it as an art piece on your desk!
The combination of the characteristics of the "Superglide Glass Mousepad V2" and the illustration by the illustrator brings out the vivid colors and delicate lines of the illustration clearly through the glass material, not only improving gamers' performance, but also making it enjoyable as art to decorate their desks. The result is a product that gamers can enjoy not only as a performance enhancer, but also as a piece of art to decorate their desks.

The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology is promoting the development of the next generation of IT human resources. However, there is still a lack of practical and attractive learning opportunities, especially in education for junior and senior high school students.
On the other hand, the online game "Fortnite," with more than 500 million users globally and over 70 million monthly active users, is creating a new market beyond the game industry.

]]> AMICIS begins selling glass mouse pads of virtual artist "Kagranana https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/89613/ Thu, 26 Dec 2024 03:00:50 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/89613/ (Head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Takayoshi Hoshi; hereinafter "Game & Co.", a wholly owned subsidiary of Brave group, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "Game & Co."), a 100% subsidiary of Brave group, has started pre-order sales of the "Kagranana" glass mouse pad, the first product of the "AMICIS" brand, which develops collaborative projects between IP, creators, and activists based on the theme of "Together with Our Friends.

Collaboration Background

This first collaboration was initiated to give shape to the wishes of "Kagranana," a virtual artist who is highly popular not only in Japan but also overseas.
Under the brand concept of "creating new values with friends," AMICIS has collaborated with "Kaguranana," a virtual artist who also has a side as an illustrator, and Pulsar The "Superglide Glass Mousepad V2" from Gaming Gears, which is known for its gaming device functionality and cost performance, was combined with the characteristics of both to create a glass mousepad that can be used by gamers as well as those who love illustration and design.

＜Message from KAGURANANA

I'm a regular user of glass mousepads, and I've always hoped to make my own original version someday, but this time I was fortunate enough to collaborate with AMICIS and Pulsar Gaming Gears on an original glass mousepad for Cagranana! As a virtual artist and illustrator, I drew an illustration with motifs that are typical of "Kagranana" and my favorite things! This was the first time for me to print on glass material, so I was very particular about the colors so that the finished product would look beautiful, and I hope you will welcome it!

Outline of Glass Mouse Pad

Product Name] Theme of. "Kaguranana" Glass Mouse Pad
Size] 490mm (19.3in) x 420mm (16.5in) x 1.5mm (0.06in)
Total thickness] 2.5mm (glass 1.5mm + silicone rubber 1mm on the back)

＜Features
Original illustration drawn by "Kagranana" is used.
The design of the glass mouse pad is based on an original illustration by "Kagranana. AMICIS, with its expertise in IP and gaming devices, supervised the illustration, taking into account the color changes caused by the glass material, resulting in a design that faithfully reproduces the texture and delicate taste that "Cagranana" wants to express.

Superglide Glass Mousepad V2
Pulsar Gaming Gears' Superglide Glass Mousepad V2 is 2.5mm thick (1.5mm aluminosilicate tempered glass + 1mm silicone rubber) and has a smooth, uniquely processed glass surface for seamless mouse operation. The back of the device is designed to maximize adhesion to the surface on which it is placed. The back is molded with high-density silicone rubber for maximum adhesion to the surface and stability, reducing the risk of the glass mouse pad shifting during game play.

The finished product can also be enjoyed as a piece of art to display on your desk.
The combination of the characteristics of the "Superglide Glass Mousepad V2" and the illustration by "Kagranana" brings out the vivid colors and delicate lines of the illustration clearly through the glass material, not only improving gamers' performance, but also making it a piece of art to decorate their desks. The result is a product that gamers can enjoy not only as a performance enhancer, but also as a piece of art to decorate their desks.

Pre-order period: Now - Saturday, January 25, 2025 (23:59)

Outline of the music

HIMEHINA's new single "LADY CRAZY" is the latest song following "Aibao Dance Hall," which has been a big hit on SNS. Ai Bou Dance Hall" has been posted on Nico Nico Douga, YouTube, TikTok, and other social networking sites, and by September 2024, the number of views had surpassed 30 million. The number of views continues to increase, and the song is highly popular as HIMEHINA's representative song.
LADY CRAZY" is a cool dance number that is a complete change from the pop-inspired "Ai Bou Dance Hall," and is packed with new charm while retaining HIMEHINA's originality.
The highlight of the music video is the rap part, which is a fusion of high speed rap with the lyrics piled up in a fury of rhymes, and a mysterious dance with many back-up dancers that gives the song an Indian flavor. It is truly a crazy performance. The powerful dance performance by Hime Tanaka and Hina Suzuki, dressed in new Arabian-style costumes, is also a highlight of the show, and we hope you will enjoy the two dancers' well-matched dance moves and impressive lyrics.

globie" is the first European multilingual VTuber project released by Brave group Europe.

globie" is a coined word that means "a friend of the world".

The word "globie" expresses the hope that people from all over the world, regardless of culture or language, will come together to enjoy expression and entertainment, to build a circle and connection with each other, and to create their own community through their hobbies and specialties.

The vision of this project is "Unveil the world together .

3DCG Lecture "Let's make a flying UFO with your first CG production! Curriculum

This lecture aimed to stimulate interest in CG creators, who are the creators of games and visual content that children come into contact with on a daily basis, through joint participation by parents and children. Through hands-on workshops with detailed explanations for each step, participants experienced CG modeling and learned about the role and basic knowledge of CG creators.
Through the experience of working together with parents and children to create, we offered a curriculum that would help parents understand, from their children's perspective, the kind of game creators they aspire to be.

ME Campus" to Support Future Creators

In recent years, the need for ICT-based education has been increasing among children.
There has been an increase in the number of cases where children naturally aspire to become game creators through the original experience of enjoying games, publishing the games they have created, and sharing their creation methods on YouTube.
Online games such as Roblox and Fortnite have released tools that allow even elementary school students to create games intuitively, and many children are creating games with quality that rivals that of adults.

In this initiative, a practical 3DCG course was held as the first step toward becoming a "game creator," a profession that children are interested in.
Feedback from elementary school students and their parents who participated in the course showed a high level of satisfaction, with many enthusiastic comments such as "I want to make fighter planes and avatars" and "My child seemed to be motivated to do it himself. In addition, all participants were able to complete their works within the allotted time, indicating that the event was a fruitful learning opportunity.

The online learning platform "ME Campus" aims to realize "online learning that leads to results" for students and working adults who are seeking employment, including side jobs and employment, and at the same time, to produce creators who are active in society in various ways. We will also work to produce creators who will be active in society in a variety of ways.

About ME Campus


ME Campus" is an online learning platform with a unique support system. It provides a learning cycle with output-centered learning and all-round support to ensure that learning continues and leads to results.

Demand for reskilling
Reskilling is attracting attention due to the prediction that knowledge and skills acquired in the past will no longer be applicable due to the rapid development of digital technology. The ME Campus is also in demand as a reskilling program, with some students enrolling in the curriculum with the aim of finding employment as creators.

Output-oriented learning and all-round support
The ME Campus is a hands-on learning program in which students are encouraged to create their own assignments, and video materials are used to supplement their knowledge as needed. In addition, to support students in acquiring skills through the creation of assignments, the program provides all-round support, including advice from expert coaches and AI assistants, opportunities to interact with other students, participation in projects in collaboration with companies, and a community manager to help students navigate these activities.

]]> Plastic Model Review] The 4th Eldoran Robo Miraculously Becomes a Plastic Kit! Voice actor Tai Yuuki takes on the challenge of "Complete Victory Daitei O" appearing in MODEROID! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71409/ Fri, 30 Aug 2024 18:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71409/

When you are a working adult, you tend to have a lot of plastic models piled up in your busy life. ...... In this series, Yasuyuki Tai, a voice actor who loves robots and plastic models, takes on the challenge of building plastic models on your behalf!

The concept is "Even busy working people can make it this far on weekends and vacations! The only two rules of this article are that the model must be finished as an unassembled model and that you can spend only one or two days to build it! Read this series, and you will surely find the plastic model you want to build.

Taiyuki's Weekend Plastic Model Series No. 100 "MODEROID Daiteio

I never thought I would see the day when this robot would be made into a three-dimensional model and released as a plastic model! This time we introduce the plastic kit of "Perfect Victory Daiteio," which was developed in pilot films and model magazines as part of the 10th anniversary of the end of Sunrise's popular robot anime "Eldoran Series.

The company that commercialized this product is MODEROID, a plastic model brand of Good Smile Company.

It is as expected!

Some of you may not have known of its existence since it has not been made into a TV anime, but if you see the kit, you will understand that it is the legitimate successor of the Eldoran series.

Now, please enjoy it!

The package depicts the combined Daiteioh and each mecha before the combination.

We will start with the separated form.

You can see the size of the three mecha. There is a bird-shaped mecha, a dog-shaped mecha, and a monkey-shaped mecha. The motif of "Daiteio" is actually based on "Momotaro".

Teio

This is "Teio," a monkey-type mecha. Unlike Raijin-O, Teio is an ape-shaped mecha, and the length of its arms and legs is slightly different from that of a human.

The Teio sword can be mounted on its back.

The face is not designed to be extremely ape-like.

Large clear parts are used for the legs. The ankles are large and shaped in a way that reminds us that it is a "monkey-type mecha.

The range of motion is quite excellent for a small mecha.

The fist can reach the Teio sword on its back.

The Simple Stand (sold separately) can be connected to the shaft hole where the Teio Sword was mounted, allowing you to recreate the jump action.

It can also be straddled somewhat by Rikuo, whom we will introduce next, but it will not be fixed in place. It is an atmosphere.

Lik-O

Next, let's take a look at Lik-O. This is the beast king position in the "Raijin-O" series. It is mainly responsible for the area below the knees of Daiteio.

The base of the back legs are ball-jointed, and the ankles are connected to an axis that allows for roll-rotation, so posing is rather flexible.

She can also turn her head upward and open her mouth.

The simple stand" can be connected to the abdomen. You can also recreate the action of jumping on an enemy.

Kuwuoh

Next is Kuwuoh. It is a pheasant type mecha. Its wings and tail feathers are very large. The simple stand can be connected to the abdomen, so it can be displayed in a flying state.

In the "Raijin-O" series, this mecha is in a similar position to Ho-oh.

The legs, neck, and beak are movable. The wings are also movable.

The three can be combined in a victory combination!

Dynamic victory combination gimmick!

First, Teio is disassembled to this point. Only the chest and legs are used.

Liqu-O is also disassembled like this. Legs and other parts will be surplus parts.

Transform the body part of Lik-O as shown on the right side of the image, and it will become the legs of Daitheio.

Although Kuwuoh is also disassembled, almost all parts except for the abdomen are used for combining.

Kuwuoh with only the main block. Transform it from here.

Fold the neck and legs compactly, and raise the face part of the die Teio.

Transform the chest part of Teio, and connect the thigh parts and side armor of Die Teio.

Then, the deformed leg parts of Lik-O are joined to it. This completes the lower body.

The shoulder armor, arms, chest ornament, and lower body are combined with the chest parts for merging.

Now, the remaining part is Koo-oh!

While attaching the met parts to the face of Daitheio, ......

Combined on the back.

Transform the head of Likuo and attach the sword parts to make it into a Daitei Sword.

The shield composed of Kuoh's tail parts is also completed by reassembling the base like this.

The Daitei Sword is powerful even as it is. ......

The sword can also be reassembled into a more form-focused sword. This is your choice.

Check out Daitei O thoroughly!

So, the "Daitei O" has been assembled into "Daitei O for complete victory". This is the "Eldoran Robo" atmosphere. The chest ornament is very large and impressive.

The wings are also very large and powerful.

The rounded shape of the head ornament is a shape not seen on previous Eldoran Robots. This is another unique feature of Daiteio.

Daiteio is a robot with many crystal-like parts. Most of the clear parts are molded in clear green, but the chest parts are painted silver from the back.

The design of the instep has a slight Japanese flavor. The ankles are similar to those of MODEROID Raijin-O, with a ball joint connection and a pull-out type.

The shin part of the Teio is now attached to the elbow of the Daitheio.

The base of the wing is multi-jointed, so it can be moved quite freely.

The blocks on the sides of the legs are exactly what you would expect from an Eldoran robot.

The hip joints slide up and down in a way that avoids design constraints on movement. If you work hard, you can make it look like it is standing on its knees, as shown here.

The figure is holding a Daitei Sword and a Daitei Shield, both of which are form-focused. At first glance, it looks like a sword with a parsed blade, but this sword seems to be originally designed like this.

Daitei O's wrists also come with flat hands.

The shoulder joints swing upward, allowing the figure to be double-handed at the large upper level.

There is a joint hole behind the waist, so "The Simple Stand" can be connected.

Easy processing with a little extra effort

Now, the "plus one touch" this time is really easy. Just as the clear green chest parts were painted silver from the back, I painted the other clear parts silver from the back to give them a unified look.

This gave a sense of unity to the clear parts of the entire body.

Not only clear parts, but also once this kit is assembled, it is quite difficult to remove them, so it is important to make a decision at an early stage if you want to paint the backside of the clear parts with silver.

How do you like it? I think that the clear green parts now have a sense of unity.

If you have room, you might try painting the yellow parts in gold.

So, that was the "Complete Victory Daitei O.". Now we have a lineup of MODEROID models, including Raijin-O, Ganbargar, and Daiteio, and I would like to put Gozaurer in the same MODEROID lineup.

There is also a possibility that more mecha will be added to the Daiteioh lineup that will combine with it. How far will MODEROID go?

This series always never disappoints, and I dream of one day being able to line up the main character mecha from the four Eldoran works. Good Smile, Mecha Smile. I look forward to working with you!

Well, as a matter of fact, the "Akiba Research Institute," where this article was serialized, is now ending its service. We were able to reach the 100th issue in the end by rushing, but it is very sad....
I am very much looking forward to continuing this series of articles, as there are still a lot of attractive plastic models to be seen in the future. I am realistically hoping that I will be able to work on these articles again at some point....
For those of you who have read our articles so far, what did you think of the contents of each article?
If you would like to share your thoughts with us, we would be happy to hear about articles that have left a lasting impression on you. We look forward to your comments.

So, we will definitely see you again somewhere~! (Translated by

]]> Armed dinosaurs and boys and girls protect the peace of the earth! Comments from Seiichiro Yamashita and Ayane Sakura, main cast members of the special effects drama "ARMORED SAURUS https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71410/ Fri, 30 Aug 2024 16:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71410/

ARMORED SAURUS" is a special effects drama from South Korea in which an armed dinosaur "Armored Saurus" and its pilot, a boy and a girl, fight against a mechanical dinosaur empire to protect the peace of the earth. Seiichiro Yamashita, Japanese dubbing voice actor for the main character Jin, and Ayane Sakura, Japanese dubbing voice actor for Sena, have commented on the film.

ARMORED SAURUS" is a special effects drama featuring dinosaur battles between the "Mechanical Dinosaur Empire" that plans to conquer the universe and the "D-Army" that protects the earth. The dynamic and realistic visual expressions, which are depicted using the latest filming technology, have astonished viewers every time.

In addition to the powerful visuals, the growth of the children centering on Jin, the main character, and the thrilling plot development have been a hot topic of conversation among parents as well as the children's generation immediately after the broadcast.
It will be released in Japan in 2023. The Japanese dubbed voice cast includes Seiichiro Yamashita, Ayane Sakura, and Junya Enoki. The theme song is sung by the globally popular group TOMORROW x TOGETHER, as in the original Korean version. The second season of the series has been aired on TV and is also available on Amazon Prime Video and other distribution services.


We have just received interviews about the series from Seiichiro Yamashita, the Japanese dubbing voice actor for the main character Jin, and Ayane Sakura, the Japanese dubbing voice actor for Senna. Whether you have already seen the film or not, we hope you will read this interview and enjoy the full-length drama as many times as possible.

Seiichiro Yamashita (Jin)


─ What was your impression when you first read the script for this work, which features an epic story and powerful dinosaur battles?

Yamashita: I was fascinated by the romantic setting of dinosaurs and mecha. Not only that, but I really enjoyed reading the script each time I read it, as the backgrounds of each character, their true intentions and pretensions, and their dramas are well drawn out.

─ What do you find appealing about the actual movie?

Yamashita: The sequence in which the Bulls and the dinosaurs transform and merge with the machines is of incredible quality. The background of this film was also created and shot in CG, and I was impressed by the cutting-edge "royal road" that was depicted in the film.

The film is now available on Amazon Prime Video and other popular video sites. What are the highlights and what episodes do you recommend?

Yamashita: In addition to the battle action, the human drama is also worth watching, such as the changes in the values of the characters' relationships. The members are rich in individuality, so you are sure to find your "guess!

──What was the most impressive scene in the episode that was broadcast?

Yamashita It's not a specific episode, but I liked how Jin had a sense of rivalry with Senna, or rather a passion that he couldn't lose, and how he challenged her to a match in the ...... martial arts class but lost easily (laugh). I also like the drama of how Jin, who was initially considered as a bit of a nuisance, is recognized by his classmates through his day-to-day activities.

──Do you have any memorable episodes during recording, or anything memorable about acting with your co-stars?

Yamashita: I regret that I was only able to work with a small group of people when I was recording the film due to the current times. There were many people who helped me on a daily basis in this work, and I especially learned a lot about the attitude of dubbing from Junya Enoki, who played Han-gyeol and has been with me for a long time. He was just as dependable as Hankyol.

─ ─ Do you have any memories or episodes related to dinosaurs?

Yamashita: When I was a child, there was an ice cream sold that looked like a dinosaur egg, and when I tried to eat it, my parents jokingly threatened me that I would turn into a dinosaur if I ate it, but I really believed them and was too scared to eat it. I was so scared that I couldn't eat it.

Ayane Sakura (Ayane Sakura as Senna)


─ What was your impression when you read the script for the first time?

Sakura: I felt that it was a work filled with many of the things I loved when I was a child! I felt that it was a work filled with many of the things I loved when I was a child. Dinosaurs, mechanics, children fighting and adults struggling... I remember being excited and having a great time before and after the recording started. I loved Senna from the first impression I got of her, and I remember well how nervous I was every time I voiced her.

─ ─ What do you find attractive about the actual footage?

Sakura: I was surprised by the overwhelming quality of the images, which blurred the boundary between reality and fiction. The human relationships between the children and the adults are also well depicted, and the human patterns and anguish of the adults are well worth seeing. If I had seen this film when I was a child, I would have admired the taciturn and mysterious Senna. I still admire her and want to be like her.

The film is now available on Amazon Prime Video and other online video sites. What are some of the highlights and episodes you recommend?

Sakura: Personally, I always paid a lot of attention to the Raptors because they are so cute. Don't underestimate it as just another exciting adventure, you will enjoy not only fun scenes but also hard and troubling scenes. I hope that people of all ages will enjoy watching this film, which also has beautiful images!

A firm older sister and a pampered younger sister. The sisters are too opposite, but they get along very well with each other.

They are cute little sisters, and that's a problem. This is a story about my sister.

Ubisoft Corporation, in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, released "Star Wars: The Outlaws" today, August 30, 2024, for the Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation5 and Windows PC (Ubisoft Connect).

Developed by Massive Entertainment, "Star Wars: The Outlaws" will feature an original storyline that takes place between "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back" and "Star Wars: Return of the Jedi," bringing the world of "Star Wars" to life like never before. (*1).

As the Galactic Empire seeks to eradicate the Rebel Alliance, the underworld grows in power. Take control of the cunning villain Kay Vess and her sidekick Nix as they embark on the largest robbery plot in the history of the Outer Rim. To start a new life, Kay and Nix fight, steal, and outsmart a criminal syndicate to become the most wanted criminals in the galaxy.

Star Wars: Outlaws" tells the story of Kay Vess and her partner Nix as they pursue the opportunity of a lifetime. The story takes place at a time when the war between the Empire and the Rebellion is raging and the underworld is enjoying its golden age in the shadows. Kay, who has made a name for herself as a skilled thief, is noticed by Surilo, the leader of a new crime syndicate, Zelek Besh, and a bounty is placed on her head.

I found something (magical girl) that I can be passionate about.

When Mapuko visits her grandfather, she meets Berry Blossom, a magical girl who protects the town, and is instantly smitten. However, the attack of Chroma, the leader of the rival evil organization "Fossa Magna," is not so successful, and the battle between the two is not worth watching. Mapuko, who wants to see more of Berry's activities, is growing increasingly frustrated....

I want the magical girl to shine more...force me to fight harder!"

That desire (?) leads the shy girl down a path of evil.

The Japanese animated television series "Super Electromagnetic Machine Voltes V" has been broadcast since 1977. After almost half a century, "Voltes V Legacy," a live-action movie in the Philippines that has been enthusiastically supported by the public, has released a special video "Secrets of the live-action version of the Voltes V mecha design.

To commemorate its triumphant return to its birthplace, Japan, a "super-electromagnetic edited version" of the movie "Voltes V Legacy," with new scenes added by the Filipino production team and further improved CG quality, will be released on October 18, 2024 (Friday). The film will be released on October 18, 2024 (Friday).

Director Mark A. Reyes V reveals his extraordinary passion for the robot design in a special video titled "Secrets of the Live-action Version of the Voltes V Mecha Design.

It's not that we weren't allowed to do it, it's that we didn't want to change it. The film has evolved from a two-dimensional animation to a three-dimensional computer graphics! Director Reyes, a Voltes V geek, reveals the secret behind the design of Voltes V and the enemy mecha/beast fighter.


On August 23 (Fri.), distribution of all 40 episodes of the original anime began sequentially on YouTube, and the social networking service has been enjoying both old fans and new viewers alike, with comments of nostalgia for the work, surprise at the fast-paced yet profound storyline from the beginning, and those who were attracted to the characters as they were when the series was first broadcast. The latest release of the film is the first time the film has been shown in theaters.


The recently released video interview with Mark A. Reyes V, director of the "Voltes V Legacy" movie, reveals the secret story behind the creation of the mecha design. Director Reyes, who is one of the most prominent Voltes V geeks in the Philippines, where Voltes V is very popular, and who himself had the passion to make the live-action film a reality, says that he was determined not to change the design of Voltes V from the original cartoon.



It wasn't that I wasn't allowed to change it, but that I didn't want to change it. I wanted to express the image of the anime Voltes V as it was. Of course, we modernized the textures and enhanced the gimmicks of movement, such as fighting, flying, and merging.

As he explains, the film reproduces the design of the original anime, while evolving the details and textures to be acceptable to modern audiences, creating more powerful battle scenes. In fact, the action scenes of Voltes V have been enhanced with the weight of metal and gimmicks for various weapons, giving viewers a realistic sense of the Voltes V that exists in the live-action film.



On the other hand, the Beast Fighter, which is the enemy of VOLTES V, is given elements different from those in the anime. The beast fighters in the original anime are designed to resemble real animals.

He explains this by saying, "That would be OK for the anime, but it would be uncomfortable for the live-action version. We kept the basic parts of the design, but made it scarier and tougher," he said, revealing that he made the change.



Although the approach was different from the design of Voltes V, the basic design of the original anime was retained, and changes unique to this live-action version were made, showing director Reyes' great love for Voltes V. The more powerful Beast Fighter's beam and missile attacks contribute greatly to the breathtakingly powerful battle scenes. The film also includes plenty of battle scenes of the VORTES V and Beast Fighter, which director Reyes designed with extraordinary love! The battle scenes, which are set to background music arranged from the original anime and also used in the film, make you feel as if you can hear the impact of the confrontation between the Vortez V and the Beast Fighter.

＜Story.

One day, Earth is attacked by an army led by Prince Zardoz from the planet "Boazan. While conventional weapons are completely ineffective, the three Armstrong brothers, Steve, Big Bert, and Little John, along with Mark Gordon and Jamie Robinson, board five secretly manufactured machines to take on the battle.

To ensure their victory, the enemy launches the "Beast Fighter," a more powerful beast-shaped robot, and the five men must fight back by combining their machines with the cry "Let's Bolt In! the five members combine their machines to form the giant humanoid robot "Voltes V." The five members of the Voltes Team are now in the midst of their own battle to defeat the Beast Fighter.

Can the five members of the Voltes Team protect the earth?

]]> The latest in the new "Omoroids" lineup! Voice actor Yasuyuki Tai challenges the test shot version of the "Acremlin Army V-Grade Scrambler Zyber" that he got at the One Fest! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71391/ Thu, 29 Aug 2024 18:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71391/

When you are a working adult, you tend to have a lot of plastic models piled up in your busy life. ...... In this series, Yasuyuki Tai, a voice actor who loves robots and plastic models, takes on the challenge of building plastic models on your behalf!

The concept is "even busy working people can make it this far on weekends and vacations! The only two rules of this article are that the model must be finished as an unassembled model and that you can spend only one or two days to build it! Read this series, and you will surely find the plastic model you want to build.

Taiyuki's Weekend Plastic Model #99: Akremlin Military V-Grade Scrambler Zweaver

We have received information that the long-awaited new Omoroids "Acremlin Army V-Grade Scrambler Zweaver" is scheduled to be released on October 26, 2014!

We would like to introduce the gimmick of Zyber, using a prototype called Test Shot, which was pre-sold at the recently held Wonder Festival 2024 [Summer].

This is a package illustration. Since this is a test shot, it is not the official package, but the design will look like this. The atmosphere of the design follows the design of the kit at that time.

We think that the runner arrangement will be almost the same as the production version even in the test shots, so let us introduce it well.

Again, the kit is composed of three colors of plastic, including clear parts.

And here is the unassembled vertical mode.

It took less than an hour to assemble. I can feel LEAPRO's desire to make it easy for anyone to pick up and enjoy making plastic models.

What do you think of this chubby Omoroid-like form? It took a lot of trial and error to arrive at this shape.

The head of the beast-mode "Pteranodon" is folded up on its back.

Clear parts are used for the center of the face and the camera portion of the forehead. Behind the clear parts for the eyes, there is a hollowed out "V" as it is a "V-Grade Scrambler".

When assembled, there is a space behind it where something that could be a light source could be built in.

The round holes in the wings are 3mm in diameter, allowing for customization by attaching parts from Kotobukiya's "M.S.G." series and other parts.

The wrist claw is also a nice, moderately sharp point.

The legs have ball joint connections at the hip joints and ankles. Although the legs are short, various nuances can be added.

The wings on the back have an exquisite surface structure.

The base of the shoulders are also ball-jointed.

They roll and rotate under the shoulders. The elbows can be bent in this shape!

The legs can be opened quite a bit in the lateral direction.

I thought to look at the front and back leg openings, but it looks as if she is kicking a ball up.

There is also a 3mm diameter hole on the side of the thigh where the round molded part is removed, so this can be used for customization as well. Despite the small size of the body, it is nice to see that these customization points have been prepared in advance.

Zieber thrusting a claw at an enemy!

Optional parts are included for the clear eyes. Three different cameras have been sculpted.

However, if you leave them as they are, they will get caught when transforming. If you want to use this camera to transform the figure, you will need to be a little creative.

Let's go on to the explanation of the transformation!

Transforming into beast mode!

Push the head down and raise the pteranodon head on the back.

Flip the ankles back and forth.

Turn the forearm pins to face forward. ......

Spread the wings out to the sides.

Tilt the upper body down and lift the arms to complete the transformation.

It is indeed Kunio Okawara's design that the silhouette changes so drastically in spite of the simple transformation procedure.

Clear parts are also used for the camera parts in this form.

You can see that the silhouette from behind has also changed quite a bit.

The upper body is tilted forward so far, but it can stand on its own without falling forward!

The beak has a movable lower jaw. The beak has a movable lower jaw, and there is a grooved plate in the mouth. The nostrils are also sculpted in a cute shape.

Comparison with the old kit!

Finally, I would like to compare this kit with the old kit released in the 1980s. The number of colors and the finer partitioning of the parts give a very different impression even when assembled unassembled.

The old kit looks a little stouter.

The impression is better when clear parts are attached.

The color of the molding is different, but the back view looks similar!　That's because they are both zweibers, right?

By the way, there is a nice point when transforming from beast mode to vertical mode. After transforming the limbs and wings, the Pteranodon's head is finally placed on its back. ...

When the head is attached to the back from this point, the head in vertical mode protrudes upward!　This is a really nice touch!

This gimmick was also used in the kits of the time, although the structure is slightly different, and it shows how highly complete the Omoroids series was at that time.

Comparison of vertical mode. The old kit also had rotatable ankles, allowing for more expressive poses.

However, the new kit has been further enhanced with ball joints in various parts, which gives it a more powerful range of motion. The ability to bend the elbows is a major evolution.

The heel claw of the old kit has a large hole on the inside for the convenience of parts division, but in the new kit, the claw itself is a separate part, so this problem has been solved. The new kit has the claw itself as a separate part, so this problem has been solved. The kit is filled with the designer's effort and love.

The markings on the kit were water-transfer decals for the test shots, but the final version will use foil stickers as before, so those who are not good at using decals need not worry.

As for the Zyber, we have also heard that they are planning to release a variation of the Zyber, so we can look forward to its future development as well as that of the Glink, which is scheduled to go on sale in the future!

The product is scheduled to be released on October 26, 2024, so we are looking forward to that day!

The result of "2024 Summer Anime Song Popularity Poll" is announced! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71397/ Thu, 29 Aug 2024 01:13:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71397/

The Akiba Research Institute held an official poll from August 14 to 28, 2024, titled "Which song is your favorite? Here are the results.

Broadcasting and distribution of the summer cool anime of 2024 has entered the second half of the year! As the anime is getting more and more exciting, anime songs are also attracting a lot of attention in various fields. Let's take a look back at the results of "2024 Summer Anime Theme Song Popularity Poll," the last official voting project of Akiba Research Institute.

Here are the results of the poll

No.1 Iensei "GAME OVER" ... 781 votes
Majority Absent [ED

No.2 Viva Rush "Emperor Time"...694 votes
No. 2 Vivalash "Emperor Time"...694 votes

No.3 22/7 "Between YES and NO"...676 votes
ATRI -My Dear Moments- [ED

No.4 GEMS COMPANY "Ashes to Pray"...332 votes
NieR:Automata Ver1.1a (2nd season) [ED] (Japanese only)

No.5 KODAMA Hikari "Charge! ...167 votes
Goddess of Cafe Terrace (2nd season) [OP

No.6 Mamoru Miyano "The Battle" ...136 votes
Gendai Misinterpretation [OP

No.7 Bocchi Boromaru "Tsuyogaru girl feat. Moksa (Nekkuritoky)" ...102 votes
There are too many losing heroines! OP

No.8 Urara Nanami "Emotion Revolution Rock'n'Roll" ...91 votes
Future mastermind villainess Moriarty's Otherworldly Perfect Crime White Paper [OP].

No.9 Chogakusei "Hazure" ... 83 votes
Until I became the strongest by Hazure's [abnormal state skill] and laid waste to everything [OP].

No.10 Kitri "Aquarium swing" ... 59 votes
Sister-in-law life [ED].

No.10 Shikanoko no Koko (cv. Han Megumi) Torako (cv. Fujita Saki) "Shika Senbei no Uta"...59 votes
Shikanoko no kokoshitantan [ED].

While many notable anime songs were released this season, including masterpieces, stray songs, and topical songs, to our surprise, the OP and ED of "Shikanokotsukomi" made a one-two finish.


The top song was the ED "GAME OVER" by singer-songwriter Isei. The song is very stylish, with a chiptune-like beginning that develops into a dark worldview, while the tune is danceable.


In second place is the OP "Emperor Time" by Bebarash. Both the OP and the ED were powerful songs that seemed to symbolize the power of the work.


The song that closely followed the top two was "ATRI -My Dear Moments-" ED "Between YES and NO," sung by 22/7. The call and groove of "Yoshi Ikuyo! before the chorus and the groove of the song make it a song that would look great at a live performance. I think this song will become a standard song at ani-song events and ani clubs in the future.

and the groovy song swept the Top 3.


In contrast, "NieR: Automata Ver1.1a (2nd Cool)" ED "Ashi to Prayer" at No. 4 is a serene song that seems to be the sound of the world of "NieR: Automata" as it is. Her voice, which even sounds sacred, is a must-listen.


Fifth place went to Hikari Kodama singing "Charge! (season 2)," sung by Hikari Kodama. It is a cute elepop tune that matches the OP video of the heroines dancing. You will want to listen to this song over and over again in combination with the video.


The sixth place goes to "The Battle" by Mamoru Miyano. As the OP of the short anime "Gendai Misinterpretation," only the chorus is shown in the anime, but the full-size official music video is also available on YouTube. If you listen to it through, you will realize that it is the coolest R&B number. Please check it out as well.


Seventh place went to "Tsuyogaru Girl feat. Mokusa (Nekkritalky)," featuring Nekkritalky vocalist Mokusa, by Bocchi Boromaru, who has produced several of this season's most talked-about songs. There are too many losing heroines!" The more you listen to this song, which is played as the OP, the more fun it becomes, with its gorgeous brass and groovy guitar backing!


No. 8 "Future mastermind villainous daughter Moriarty's Isekai perfect crime white paper" OP "Emotional Revolution Rock 'n' Roll" is another upper band number. After all, the guttural guitar sound is cool without question!


No. 9 was "Hazure," an OP of "Until I, who became the strongest by [abnormal state skill] in the Hazure frame, laid waste to everything," by Cho Gakusei. The lyrics and music were written by the powerful tag team of Yuki Tsujimura and Takuya Yamanaka (THE ORAL CIGARETTES). Hats off to the skill of the super-student who sang it with aplomb.

Two songs tied for 10th place on the list.


One is "Aquarium Swing" by Kitri, an ED song for "Gisii Seikatsu" (Life of a Step-Sister). The lyrical worldview of the song fits perfectly with the image of the work, and I am sure I am not the only one who feels a strong emotion whenever I hear it.


The other is "Shikano no kono koko shittan tan," which can be said to be the eye of this season's typhoon. The ED theme is "Shika Senbei no Uta" (Song of Deer Crackers). This song is sung solely about deer crackers. In the video, the process of making deer crackers is shown in detail with live-action images. Is this really ani ED? By the way, the OP "Shika-iro Days," the latest mode of radio wave songs, came in at No. 22. This is another unforgettable song.

So, the last Akiba Research Institute poll, "Which song is your favorite?

He gave them a mission to search for a new place where mankind can thrive, and sent them off on the spaceship "Omega 6.

This time, the two explore three planets: Impostor, a planet teeming with diverse aliens; Igni, a planet of fire with a harsh environment; and Hrothrara, a planet of ice where the rich and powerful gather. What kind of adventures will unfold? ......

There is no need to be self-conscious about the fact that this is a science fiction film. It is an old-fashioned space opera-like world where aliens are more vulgar than earthlings, "space flyers" dance in space, and planets are bought and sold on loan, so it is enjoyable without any logic.

The first thing that catches the eye are the characters designed by Imamura. They are drawn in the American comic style that is Imamura's specialty, and are truly unique. The characters are also very familiar and easy to relate to. Although the two main characters are artificial humans, Thunder is a tough guy who tends to pursue his romantic interests, such as bonsai trees, while Kayla is more of a realist who is frightening ...... once she gets angry, and they have a human touch.

The supporting characters, such as the robot Prop, the good-natured alien Flabo, and the headless knight who looks scary but is soft-spoken, have faces and names that are hard to forget once you see them. The characters are so convincing that you will never forget their names and faces once you see them.

The aliens they encounter are also a mass of individuality: some have animal motifs such as fish and pigs, some have faces attached to their bellies, some have limbs growing directly from their eyeballs, and some have faces composed only of giant lips and eyeballs. Such are the people who hang out in the hustle and bustle and wilderness of the three planets.

Some of them are begging for money, some are challenging us to a fight, and some even call themselves "earthlings" and make dubious sales pitches even though they don't look earthly in appearance. Every time a new face appears, one wonders if he or she is a friend or foe. The variety of silhouettes, vivid colors, retro-futuristic design, and pixel art are a perfect match, giving the game the feel of a space opera from a bygone era, like the bar in "Star Wars" Episode IV or an even older sci-fi adventure. The aliens you meet will be added to your library, so you'll be motivated to see what the next one will bring out.

The game system is a point-and-click adventure game that respects the 8- and 16-bit era, which is a must for those who know those days. The feeling of clicking around the pixel-art backgrounds in search of clues, and being struck in the knees by the cleverly crafted messages and flavor text on background posters and billboards that have nothing to do with the main story, is unmistakably from that era. The commands at the top of the screen also make me smile when I think of the function keys that would have been assigned as shortcuts in the heyday of hobby PCs, such as .......

On the other hand, there are many modern features, the most impressive of which is the money feature. In order to progress in the game, you need to earn money, and to do so, you have to perform tasks such as deliveries, capturing bounty hunters, and defeating vermin (like monsters). This area is similar to the quests in recent games, and the accumulation of money itself becomes fun. Sometimes, the right to stay on a planet is prorated by the day, and you have to re-purchase it every time it expires. This is a good use of money while creating a space opera feel that is mundane in spite of being in space.

Another modern feature is the bonsai trees, which are useful in the battles described below. The Omega 6 has a bonsai room on board, where Sander's favorite bonsai grows and produces a strange fruit. The bonsai pots and branches can be arranged to your liking, and the customizability of the bonsai is very much like a modern video game. You can also collect artifacts, which is another fun aspect of modern collecting.

The most impressive aspect of the game is the battle. Combat in this game is based on rock-paper-scissors-scissors, and the moves that can be made are represented as "rock-paper-scissors" cards. The player and the enemy play cards together, and if the player wins, he or she is dealt damage, and vice versa if the player loses. When one of the players runs out of energy, the game is settled. ...... Of course, the cards are finite and will not be replenished until you run out of cards in your hand. In other words, it is possible for a player to run out of cards in a crucial hand at a crucial moment.

Since both the opponents and the players have a limited number of cards in their hands, it is important to read the opponents' hands and their tendencies. The enemy also has a deck of "rock-paper-scissors" cards, but some of them are turned inside out, so the contents are unknown. Only the cards that will allow you to win the game with your best moves are revealed, but you have to guess what the rest of the cards are.

Thunder's special move is "par" and Kayla's is "goo," and winning with these moves causes more damage, but there is no compensation for winning or losing the rock-paper-scissors game. However, there is no compensation for winning or losing a game of rock-paper-scissors. If the enemy plays a choki or a par, the player loses, wasting a valuable skill. To avoid such a situation, if the opponent tries to defeat your special skill, you can play behind his/her back and enjoy the psychological game of guessing what the rest of the cards are by looking at the partially disclosed cards in the opponent's hand .......

Since the basic rule is rock-paper-scissors-scissors, there are times when luck is involved in the game, but there are also times when you really want to win, such as in an event.

In such cases, the fruits in the bonsai trees come into play. The fruit can restore your strength, improve your abilities, color-code your opponent's flipped-over hand according to his or her hand of Guchokipa, or play a specific move regardless of what you have in your hand. When you cannot afford to lose, you should throw in fruit sparingly.

To do this, you need to prepare by buying nutritional supplements for cultivation, setting these up in the bonsai room, and remembering to harvest the fruits when they are ripe. You can gobble up the fruit with powerful fruit, but the penalty is typical of this work: as a side effect, Thunder and Kayla will look older.

This work has a clear concept: a nostalgic space opera feel with a mix of American comic book-style aliens, but presented as a 16-bit era-style adventure game. It will be nostalgic for those who know those days, and a fresh surprise for those who don't. We hope you will give it a try and enjoy its fascinating worldview.

No. 7 Minami Takahashi ... 2345 votes
ATRI -My Dear Moments- (Moe Kamihaku Mizuna)

No. 8 Kurumi Orihara... 2314 votes

I'm a VTuber, but if I forgot to cut off the feed, I'd be a legend (Mashiro Aya)

No.10 Hikaru Akao...1988 votes
ATRI -My Dear Moments- (Atri)



The top vote-getter in this year's exciting poll, with all of the top 10 receiving four-digit numbers of votes, was Aya Akao, who plays the slime Pigimaru in "Until I, who became the strongest with the [abnormal condition skill] in the Hazure frame, laid waste to everything. Piggy!" is the most important character in this work, as he is a slime that only speaks "Piggy!" but he is also powerful when fused with the main character, Touga. The popularity of Mr. Tsukui, who plays Pigimaru, was concentrated on his performance. He is also an important cast member in "Until I, who became the strongest by [abnormal condition skill] in the hazardous frame, laid waste to everything" as he also enchants Touga in his childhood.


In second place is Rie Suegara, who plays Tomie from "Tomie, Shashin," a part of the omnibus "Maniac" (TV broadcast version), which is a visualization of manga artist Junji Ito's works. Tomie is a demonic woman who captivates many men, who then harbor an abnormal desire to kill her. However, no matter how much her body is mutilated, she never dies, and on the contrary, she drives men crazy. ...... Ms. Suekara plays such a heroine of the horror world. Her exquisite performance, in which horror and loveliness coexist, is a must-see.


Third place went to Ruriko Aoki, who plays Sakuraka Makutsuzawa in "Goddess of the Cafe Terrace [2nd season]". The highlight of her performance was her vigorous performance as a heroine who is truly a royal heroine. Her moderate tsundere sensation is also irresistible!

The top three performers each expressed the charm of their characters in different vectors, and each received high marks.


Let's take a look at the top three.


In fourth place is Anne Haruno, who plays the role of Butsuka Nanami in "ATRI -My Dear Moments-. Butaruka is a girl with a straightforward personality and is full of energy. She is a character who has a bit of a wild streak, and she expresses this in a powerful performance.


Fifth place went to "Magical girls and evil used to be enemies." Mai Nakahara plays Byakuya Fukamori. Although it seems that Ms. Nakahara often plays energetic royal heroines, her slightly reserved and restrained performance in this work gave a new charm to the character.


Yoko Hikasa, ranked 6th, played the mysterious debt collector Catherine in "ATRI -My Dear Moments-," and Haru Asagiri, a first-generation live-on student, in "VTuber Natta Dasukanai," in which she became a legend when she forgot to cut off her delivery. Both of these characters seem to have a quirk or two, but there is something familiar about them, which is the charm of Ms. Hikasa's performance.


Minami Takahashi, who came in at No. 7, also plays the role of Moe Kamihaku Mizuna in "ATRI -My Dear Moments-. For voice actress fans, "ATRI -My Dear Moments-" was a big hit this season. Incidentally, Takahashi and Kohei Amasaki are the personalities behind the radio information program "Edison" on Bunka Hoso (Bunka Hoso). The ranking of the list rose sharply because of the news about the termination of the "Akiba Soken" service during the program. Thank you very much!


Eighth place went to Kurumi Orihara as Tamako Sha of "Ramen Red Cat. While the cat cast members are very strong, Ms. Orihara's performance gives the impression of being nice and thin. This sense of balance is exactly like ramen, where various ingredients create harmony in a bowl! Her performance as a normal girl is really good.


Ninth place went to Saku Mizuno as Mashiro Aya, a VTuber who became a legend when she forgot to cut her delivery. Her performance was excellent in expressing the unique atmosphere of the creator's temperament!


And in 10th place is Hikaru Akao, who plays Atri, the heroine of "ATRI -My Dear Moments-". Her various reactions are always heartwarming, and she is a character that makes us happy just by looking at her. Of course, Ms. Akao's performance is full of highlights. When he is cute, he is as cute as he can be, and when he is on a roll, he is thoroughly bad-ass ......, and his swashbuckling acting is irresistible.


The rest of the cast is also very interesting, and you can see the results of the 11th place and below by clicking the link below.

]]> 7 Days to Die" 50-Hour Play Review! A classic survival craft game that has been in production release for almost 11 years! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71403/ Wed, 28 Aug 2024 23:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71403/

7 Days to Die" has been available for PS5/Xbox Series X|S/PC (Steam, Microsoft Store) since July 26, 2024. Since its release on Steam in 2013 as an Early Access version that could be played prior to the official release, various updates have been made, and now the official version has finally arrived. At the time of writing (August 27, 2024), the PS5 version has not yet been released in Japan.

In this article, we will provide a review of this work.

Fight the onslaught of zombies while enduring hunger and thirst

The story takes place in a world that has collapsed due to World War III. Due to the war, large numbers of zombies roam in various parts of the world. Players will seek a way to survive in the harsh world in a city called Navezgane in the U.S. state of Arizona.

Immediately after the game begins, players are thrown out into the field looking like cavemen, with only the bare minimum of equipment and items. The realistic survival element is one of the features of this game, and if left unchecked, a variety of threats will attack the player.

The first two that players face are "food value" and "moisture value. Both of these values gradually decrease over time, and as they decrease, negative effects such as reduced maximum stamina and recovery are triggered, and in the worst case, starvation is a possibility.

In order not to die, the first stage of the game is to hunt wild animals to obtain raw meat and drink water from ponds and lakes, but consuming raw meat and unpurified water can cause dysentery, which increases the rate at which food and water values decrease. However, if they do not drink or eat, they will first die, so they have to make do with raw meat and unclean water to sustain their lives, even if they are frightened of dysentery.

Therefore, until they can cook raw meat or acquire facilities to purify sewage, they must always be concerned about the possibility of disease. Even if you do get dysentery, the items needed to cure it are not readily available in the early stages of the game, and you must wait for the disease to heal itself. At the beginning, the basic rule of thumb is to earn money by completing requests at NPCs in the field and buying necessary items.

However, if you buy food and water to prevent diseases, you will soon run out of funds, and without weapons and equipment to fight zombies, you will not survive the Blood Moon Horde, which will be discussed later. When I first played the game, I was constantly plagued by dysentery as I went about my business and was finally killed by a dog I came across in a burnt forest. He somehow managed to live a paper-thin existence, enduring hunger and thirst on the fly, but four days was still his limit. The difficulty level of this work is quite high, as there are so many things to do: preparing food and water, building a base to gather more collected reserves, and building another facility in anticipation of the Blood Moon Horde.

Not only hunger and thirst are a threat, but also the zombies that roam around us. Zombies will attack you when they notice you. They are not only humanoid, but also birds, dogs, and various other types. When attacked, the zombies not only lose their strength, but also become infected at a certain rate. If left unchecked, the zombies will turn into zombies, so it is essential to treat them with honey from stumps and antibiotics that can be obtained from houses and other facilities or by trading with merchants.

In addition, zombies are activated from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. every day. During the day, slow-moving humanoid zombies will come running, making it likely that they will catch up with you and attack you. In addition, during the same hours of the day in multiples of 7, a phenomenon known as the "Blood Moon Horde" occurs, in which a large number of zombies appear out of nowhere and attack the player.

However, this game does not impose any serious penalties for dying. If you set up a server before starting the game, and if you do not modify any settings at that time, even if a player collapses, he or she will lose some of the experience gained, and will only lose some of his or her belongings on the spot. Experience can be earned again, and lost belongings can be recovered. There is no limit to the number of times a player can be resurrected, so it is possible to learn by dying many times. When resurrected, all food and water values are also restored.

Survival is difficult, but the trial-and-error required to learn the know-how to do so can be done without hesitation. Although the difficulty level of this work itself is severe, thanks to the ability to die and start over as much as you want, you will gradually get the hang of the game and be able to conquer it. In this respect, I felt that this work is well-balanced.

A sense of accomplishment as the number of things you can do increases little by little.

The environment in this work is too harsh for players, but as mentioned earlier, if you take the time to explore and continue trial and error, what you can do will gradually increase. By using a stone axe to gather materials from grass and trees, building blocks and bows for building bases can be made. Building blocks allow the player to construct a base at will, while the bow allows the player to attack zombies from a distance and kill them before they are detected by wild animals, so there is no need to worry about missing the prey.

Exploring houses and other facilities throughout the field, players can obtain medicine, ammunition, and even guns and other weapons. In addition, reading the occasional book will accumulate points based on the type of book you read, and once you reach a certain level, you will be able to make more equipment. In addition, by allocating the skill points gained as your level increases, you can gain various benefits, such as an increase in the speed of stamina recovery and an increase in the attack power of certain weapons.

As you become better equipped, you will be able to ride a motorcycle on long trips, attack approaching zombies unilaterally with handguns and machine guns, and blow up hordes of zombies with bombs. The number of tactics that can be taken increases as well, such as attaching huge bladed fans to bases to intercept zombies, or building defense lines by burying mines that explode when enemies get close to them.

However, there is a long way to go before you have enough equipment and bases. There are only one or two books that can be obtained by exploring an entire house or facility to increase the number of items that can be built, and there are more than 40 items to which skill points can be allocated when leveling up, each with a level from 1 to 10. Although it takes time for the enhanced status and abilities to take effect in a way that the player can really feel, the sense of accomplishment gained in the process of improving the inconvenience of life is very rewarding.

Zombies hide in houses and facilities and attack nearby players.

In this review, I played for about 50 hours. As a result, I am now able to collect and purify water on my own, have a full set of military-grade armor, collect materials with an iron axe and shovel instead of stone, and fight enemies with machine guns and rifles. Although there may be individual differences, it is estimated to take about 20 hours to be able to obtain food and water stably and to search with powerful equipment such as iron.

A high degree of freedom to decide the conditions for clearing the site yourself.

Although the objective is to survive the Blood Moon Horde, it is one of the goals presented to the player. Even if you achieve it, it does not mean that it will be the ending. Therefore, it is up to the player to decide what constitutes completion.

Of course, surviving the Blood Moon Horde, which is the main goal, is fine, or making full use of building blocks to create the base of operations you envision. You can create as many conditions as you like to complete the game, such as traversing a vast field, building an elevated road so that you can easily pass through rugged terrain, or improving your weapons so that you can easily annihilate the zombies that tormented you in the early stages of the game. In other words, you can enjoy an endless life of survival.

The building process is especially deep, and time passes quickly just by changing the placement of pillars and the shape of the base, while considering the distance that blocks can be placed without support.

For those who like to play games with a clear goal, such as defeating the last boss to clear the game, this title may be too much for them. On the other hand, those who can set their own goals and stick to them will be able to enjoy the game for dozens or hundreds of hours.

Fighting zombies while taking care of food and water values is very difficult, at least in the beginning. However, the sense of accomplishment you get as you progress through combat and exploration, as you read books to increase the number of things you can make, as you level up to strengthen your character, and as you play more and more slowly, the more you can do, is indescribable. The fact that you can revive and start over as many times as you like is also very kind. We recommend this title to those who like survival games, those who are looking for a challenging game, and beginners who are interested in such games.

]]> In commemoration of the release of "The Color of Kimi no Iro", Naoko Yamada, director, and Minako Kotobuki (Sumika Yatsuka) have a special talk. https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71405/ Wed, 28 Aug 2024 22:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71405/

K-ON! (2011), "Tamako Love Story" (2002), "Unamplified" (2004), and "Liz and the Blue Bird" (2006), director Naoko Yamada's latest work, "The Color of My Heart" will be released nationwide on August 30, 2024.

The animation production of this film is by Science SARU, the same company that produced the TV animation "The Tale of the Heike," and many of the main staff members continue to participate from "The Tale of the Heike," including Reiko Yoshida for the script and Kensuke Ushio for the music.

Totsuko Higure, a high school student who can see people in "color," meets Kimi Sakunaga, a girl who goes to the same school and radiates beautiful colors, and Rui Kagehira, a boy who loves music, and the three form a band. Kimi no Iro" is a refreshing animated film that moves the viewer with the sight of three people who, despite their troubles, truly enjoy music and connect with each other.

In this interview, director Naoko Yamada talks with Minako Kotobuki, who plays Sumika Yatsuka, Totsuko's roommate and a gal who loves her friends. They talked about the movie "The Color of Kimi no Iro" (The Color of My Heart).

How did you feel about the international response to "The Color of My Heart," which was highly acclaimed at the Shanghai International Film Festival, winning the "Golden Baron" award for best animation?

Yamada: I felt that people were more eager to enjoy the film than I had imagined. And they laughed a lot. I thought, "What?　I was so happy that I thought I had made a comedy (laughs). (Laughs.) They laughed so much, and during the serious scenes, they looked at me and enjoyed watching the film.

─ I have an image that their reactions are very honest. Were they laughing in a way that the director did not anticipate when he was making the film?

Yamada: Yes. I was happy to discover that this part was funny. I was happy to discover that.

Kotobuki: How did you feel when you saw the completed film?

Kotobuki: I watched the completed film for today's Japan premiere, and it made me want to watch it again in the theater! It was a film that made me want to see it again in the theater. I was able to hear the scenes involving Sumika and Totsuko, which I play, during the postrecording, but I was completely unfamiliar with the other actors' performances, so I was able to get into the film very easily. I felt as if I was one of the characters in "The Color of My Heart" and I was able to watch it from beginning to end, receiving warmth and tenderness afterwards.

After watching the movie, I felt like, "I feel refreshed! or "I cried so hard! I wondered what this euphoric feeling was. I felt that there was something that I could only get from Mr. Yamada's work, and I felt that I was taken to a new place.

Yamada Welcome! (laughs) I am glad.

─ ─ All of Director Yamada's works are really great, but this is your first original film that is not a sequel to an animated TV series.

Kotobuki: They are all so good that I really can't choose which one is my favorite!　Among them, this original film has so many questions that I would like to be an interviewer, wondering where you came up with this idea!

Director Naoko Yamada (left) and Minako Kotobuki

─ ─ So, taking over the question (laughs), where did you get the idea for this film?

Yamada: I think the biggest thing was simply that I wanted to make a film about people who play music.

Yamada──Since music is at the core of this film, we will talk about music a lot later, but from the title "Kimi no Iro" (The Color of You), I thought that color was also a major theme of this film.

Yamada: The color for this work is light, so I created it with the image of light decomposed. Therefore, the three main characters are made up of the three primary colors of light ("red," "green," and "blue"), and when they are all combined into one, they become white. I felt infinity there, and I hoped that the three of them would have that kind of relationship.

Also, since light was a key point, I was thinking of impressionist paintings, etc. By breaking up the light and placing many colors, I could make it look like one color. For example, I imagined something that looks green, but if you look closely, you can see pink and red in it, and we discussed this with Yuko Kohari, color designer; Yuna Murooka, art director; Aoi Shimada, art director; and Yoshimasa Tomita, director of photography.

─ Does this mean that you were more particular about the use of color than in your usual works?

Yamada: Of course, we were very particular about the use of color.

Yamada: I also like the composition of the people in your films, where you place them when you capture them with your camera.

Yamada In terms of cropping, there is a subject and the shape of the world surrounding the subject. When I use black and white, I try to make sure that everything other than the subject has a beautiful shape. Then there is also color. I place great importance on color, as I want it to be a strong form of information that is received unconsciously.

─ ─ Regarding the characters, please tell us how you chose Kotobuki-san to play the role of Sumika Yatsuka.

Yamada: At first, Eriko Kimura, the sound director, suggested the name "Kotobuki-san.

Kotobuki Eeeeeee!　From Eriko-san!

Yamada At that time, I was like, "Are you sure? I was like, "Yes! From my point of view, it was like, "Yes! I also felt sympathy because Ms. Kimura had mentioned Kotobuki's name to me without me saying so.

Yamada: So I guess we were in agreement, but what did you see in Kotobuki?

Yamada At first glance, I wondered if she was a girl with a gal-like, modern flair. Yamada: At first glance, I thought she might be a girl with a gal-like, modern, and trendy style, but in fact, Sumika has a very strong sense of responsibility and is a very solid girl, so I thought she was a perfect match! I thought she would be a good fit for the job.

Kotobuki: That makes me happy!

─ Kotobuki, how did you decide to play the role of Sumika?

Kotobuki: Sumika is one of the "Three Sisters of the Forest," and Yasuko-san (played by Momochi Sakura) and Yuuki Aoi (played by Nanakubo Shiho) were cast as the three sisters. I was relieved to find that the cast was fun and cheerful, but since the recording was done separately, I later talked with Aoi about our role in the production, saying that our role in the production was to become familiar with the other performers and to connect with them. I had heard that Yasuko-san and Sayu Suzukawa, who played the role of Totsuko, were also making their first attempts as voice actors, so I somehow felt that I was in a position to connect them all.

During postrecording, Ms. Yamada said to me, "There are gals who look a bit scary or modern at first glance, but have a passionate heart. I instantly thought, "Oh, I get it! I thought it would be nice if I could differentiate myself from the other girls in the gal group by having a "gal" look, but not in a "I'm a gal! I wanted to play it in a natural way, not in a "I'm a gal!" way, but in a natural way, as if I was a nice girl who grew up in my hometown, even though I have a yearning to be a gal.

─ I could feel how much you care about Totsuko.

Kotobuki: Everyone loves Totsuko!　That's what makes it so warm!　I thought it was a very friendly world where everyone loves Totsuko and gets along with her in class.

─ I heard that the three main characters were chosen by audition.

Yamada: In this work, Totsuko leads the story, so I thought I had to decide on her first. So I focused on finding Totsuko first. From the tape, Suzukawa-san had a cute voice that sounded like a bell ringing, and the world she was looking at sounded very fun. I could imagine such a world from the sound. I actually auditioned in the studio and heard many different voices, but I could not get Suzukawa-san out of my mind. I chose her as my first choice.

Then naturally, we decided on Akari Takaishi for Kimi Sakunaga and Daisho Kido for Rui Kagehira. When I do interviews like this, I remember how hard I was trying to decide who would be the best choice, but now I think it was so well matched that it's a wonder I was worried about it at all.

─ So you had an image of the voice of Totsuko, and it was Suzukawa-san?

Yamada: Yes. However, I could imagine various images of Totsuko, so I was shaken. But after much consideration, I decided to be honest with my instincts and asked Ms. Suzukawa to do it.

─ Kotobuki, how did you like the performances of the three main actors?

Kotobuki: They were too good!　The balance between the three of them was wonderful. If I had auditioned for the roles of these three actors, I am sure I would have thought about the balance between them. Because I am working as a voice actor, I naturally think about my role in a moment. But I felt that in a sense, I was setting myself up for a template.

Totsuko, Kimi, and Rui could have been framed by the template if they wanted to, but the three members of the cast were so perfectly positioned in "the place where they seem to fit in but don't," that I felt that they were living beyond their characters. I felt it was more than a character, it was a living thing.

This sense of life is partly received from the animation and partly from the play, so animation is really a comprehensive art form. I was shocked that the play made me think so, and it made me realize that there were parts of me that were entrenched in the concept. So I have a feeling that I will meet these three people at some point.

─ ─ They have a very real sense of existence. In the story, these three form a band.　I thought it could have been three girls from a school standpoint.

Yamada I wonder why (laughs). (laughs) When I imagine myself at that time (when I was making the story), I think I probably wanted to depict a flat relationship even if the sexes were different. I think it was because I was aiming for a simple flat relationship between the three of us, not to be snobbish just because there was a boy.


─ ─ The term "flat relationship" fits me perfectly. I had received the impression from watching the film that such a thing is irrelevant to enjoying music.

Kotobuki: Did you naturally decide who was in charge of which instrument?

Yamada: It just kind of happened.

Yamada──It is true that the guitar seems to be played by a boy.

Yamada: And aren't there any drummers? Yamada And there are no drummers?

Kotobuki I wondered where theremin came from. I wondered.

Yamada That was something I was struggling with even as I was storyboarding the piece, and after some hemming and hawing, I said to Kensuke Ushio, who was in charge of the music, "This is the kind of composition I want! (laugh), so it was really a composition that was created while I was worrying about it.

(Laughs) I was really worried about the composition as we were working on it.

Yamada: It's a guitar that my brother used to use, not because Kimi herself is very particular about it or anything. She is a child who is troubled by the gap between who she sees around her and who she thinks she is, and she is still not able to see herself clearly. She is still struggling with the gap between who she sees around her and who she thinks she is. She is trying to make herself by watching her older brother, and she wears the same T-shirts and other live costumes that she got from her older brother.

The reason why I chose Rickenbacker is simply because I thought it would definitely suit Kimi-chan's appearance (laughs).

I wondered if she chose it because it looked cool. (laughs).

Yamada I think that sometimes the right choice for a guitar is to choose one based on how good it looks.

─ ─ I am told that the appearance of the guitar is important when choosing a guitar (laughs). Also, it is not easy to come up with the idea of using a theremin in a high school band, is it?

Yamada: When you form a band, you think of a drummer, a guitarist, and a bass player, but I was hoping to create a sense of a group of kids who are interested in something other than those things. I felt that it would be great to meet people who could still resonate with each other in this way! I felt that it would be great to meet people who could still resonate with each other.

I was making this work under the slogan "the strength to say you like what you like," so I thought it would be great if we could resonate with each other in other ways, even if we can't always understand each other clearly.

─ ─ You have high musical specs, don't you, Rui? His arranging ability is also very high.

Yamada: Your love for Louie really exploded.

I wondered if Louie is so good with the theremin because he has time in his environment. I wondered if that was the reason he was so good with the theremin.

Kotobuki: Indeed (laughs). I feel like he practices a lot.

Yamada I think it is a tremendous feat in reality. The person who played Louis' theremin was a French musician, Gregoire Blanc, and I thought, "It has to be his theremin! I thought, "It has to be his theremin! He changed my concept of what I thought a theremin should be. I was really surprised at how well he could hit the right notes and play the melody. I had the impression that the theremin was more like a sound effect, and I enjoyed the instability of playing a melody, so I didn't expect it to be like playing a musical instrument like that.

Kotobuki It was like a string instrument, wasn't it?

Yamada I thought this was special, and I think Louis' theremin was born because of him.

Kotobuki: What was your impression of the music in this work?

Kotobuki In that sense, I had the opportunity to work with Mr. Yamada on "K-ON! I had the opportunity to work with Mr. Yamada in "K-ON!" and we were playing in a band at that time. 15 years have passed since then, and now that he is going to write music again, I wonder what kind of music will be played?　I was looking forward to seeing what kind of music would be played and how the band would be organized. I was looking forward to it. I was looking forward to seeing what kind of music would be played and how it would be orchestrated!　But I was impressed by the way the music came in and didn't leave me behind.

─ I don't think you will be able to get "Water, Money, Earth, Fire, Wood, Earth, Heaven, Amen" out of your head when you leave the theater (laughs).

Kotobuki: Really!　I sang it at home too (laughs)!

Yamada That makes me happy. When Keiko Toda (who played Shino Sakunaga) came out of the recording studio, she came out of the booth singing, and Eriko Kimura and I ran to her and said, "Were you singing?　Just now! I couldn't help but ask her (laughs). I was so happy to hear that.

─ By the way, do you have a favorite character, Kotobuki?

Kotobuki: In terms of Sumika, I love Totsuko and want to protect her, but as for me, I loved Sister Hiyoshiko (CV. Yui Aragaki). In "K-ON!" there is a person who looks out for you, who may or may not be around, just like Sawako-sensei was in "K-ON! I wonder if that person will have a great impact and change everyone's life from now on. I also wanted to see what everyone will be like in 5 or 10 years from now.

──I feel that Director Yamada has a great love for all the characters, even when I watch his other films.

Yamada One of my policies is that I do not exist in my films. I think some directors put themselves in the characters, or put their souls somewhere in their works, but I, on the contrary, have always been stuck in the idea of being the one who is watching the work. As I get older, and I start to think about more and more things, and things change, perhaps my approach to my work will change, but for now, I am still more interested in borrowing the eyes of others and letting them look into my work to see what they are thinking and so on. I'm interested in that, so I'm not in the works.

─ ─ Finally, who would you like to see the film and what would you like them to see in the film?

Kotobuki: It's not for me to speak highly of the film, but I really understood the slogan "the strength to say you like what you like" that the director mentioned earlier, and that's why I felt affirmed when I saw this film. I remember that.

I wondered if I was doing the right thing. Or, "Is my sense of self different from the majority? Some people may feel guilty about it, but it's okay! I hope that you will feel a gentle back massage at the theater, and feel the urge to go out into the world.

Yamada Thank you for your wonderful words. When I was making this work, I strongly felt that as a human being, I was concerned about other people, anxious about fitting myself into a certain shape, and disliking myself because I am not like this! I think we are often categorized by appearance, personality, and so on.

So, I would be happy if people who are anxious about these things, or who are wondering what to do if they don't fit in, could relax and watch the film. I think you don't have to name everything so much. I hope that people from all walks of life will watch this film.

]]> The "ground belt" from "Kamen Rider 555" has finally been commercialized! Transformation belt for adults "CSM Ogre Driver" is open for reservation now! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71406/ Wed, 28 Aug 2024 19:26:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71406/

BANDAI OFFICIAL TOY SHOP" has started accepting reservations for "CSM Auger Gear" (49,500 yen including tax, shipping and handling charges not included).

BANDAI OFFICIAL TOY SHOP" has started accepting reservations for " CSM Ogre Gear " (49,500 yen including tax, shipping and handling fee not included).

From "MASKED RIDER 555", which celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2023, one of the emperor's belts from "MASKED RIDER 555 PARADISE LOST THE MOVIE", the "auger driver", called the "earth belt", is the first to be commercialized in the "COMPLETE SELECTION MODIFICATION (abbreviated name: CSM )" series!

The "CSM Ogre Driver" is based on the "CSM Phaze Driver ver.2" (* no longer accepting reservations), which was released in December 2023, while the belt belt and side buckles, which differ greatly in design, are newly sculpted based on the props in the movie. The auger phone is equipped with LEDs, and when the "0, 0, 0, ENTER" code is entered, a portion of the screen will light up. After that, by setting the auger phone to the auger driver, the sound of transformation to Masked Rider Ogre is triggered.

The audio specifications are also based on the "CSM Phaze Driver ver. 2. In addition to the "Transformation Release Sound," it also includes a newly created "Ringtone," "Horse Orphenok Change Sound," and other unique sound effects.

Four types of BGM are included: "Climax C," "Climax D," "Climax E," and "Climax F." This makes it possible to recreate the action in the movie with a special focus on Masked Rider Ogre.

In addition, the "Cheers for Ogre" can be played simultaneously with the background music for a more immersive play experience.

Also included with the "CSM Ogre Gear" is the "August Strangler" (dagger mode), also known as the "Sword of the Underworld," and the August Strangler Holder. The holder can be attached to the side buckle of the auger driver to recreate the appearance in the movie.
The August Stranzer (dagger mode) can be triggered to produce a "slashing sound".

]]> Akiba Research Institute Steam Review Roundup! The BEST 5 PC games you should definitely play! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71368/ Wed, 28 Aug 2024 18:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71368/

How are you doing, Akiba Research Institute readers? I am Nero Hyakkabe, a writer who buys too many games. As officially announced, Akiba Research Institute will be closing its service on September 30. It has been more than four years since I started reviewing games, and this time I would like to share with you some of the Steam titles that I have played over the past four years, and I would like to share with you some of the games that I think you should definitely play. I would like to introduce five titles that I have carefully selected from among the Steam titles I have played over the past four years, based on my own judgment and prejudice, and which I recommend to you. Please take a look until the end!

No. 5: Aiming to be the best bird lover! WINGSPAN" is a healing card game in which you collect birds.


⇒PC Board Game Special Part 2

  • WINGSPAN (Monster Couch)
  • Genre: Board game
  • Release date: September 18, 2020
  • Price: 2,200 yen (as of August 25, 2024)
  • Copyright: (C) 2020 Monster Couch
  • #.

This is the digital version of WINGSPAN, the Expert Grand Prize winner of the German Annual Game Awards 2019. Players' objective is to become a bird lover and discover the best birds and attract them to the wildlife sanctuary they manage. While it is a strategic game in which up to five players compete against each other, the game features many soothing and relaxing elements, such as bird illustrations with a gentle touch, beautiful watercolor-like background graphics, relaxing background music, and the sound of gentle birdsong. The birdsong sounds, in particular, are amazingly realistic recordings of actual birdsong.



The game is simple to play, with players simply choosing one of four actions each turn: "place a bird from your hand," "get food from the food box," "make a bird lay eggs," or "replenish your hand.

The game is designed to be easy to play even for board game beginners, but its simplicity allows players to firmly enjoy the fun of constructing a strategy to achieve their goals. Online play is also supported, so you can enjoy battles with friends or someone you don't know. In addition, downloadable content that adds new cards and systems to the game is also available, which is a great way to further expand the scope of your enjoyment.

Incidentally, on a personal note, I was so hooked on this Steam version of "WINGSPAN" that I later purchased the Nintendo Switch version and the smartphone app version as well.



No. 4: Can you get to the bottom of a difficult unsolved case?　Puzzle-style mystery adventure "Because you have to finish the unsolved case."


⇒[Steam] Did you miss out on anything?　Introduction of Steam new game January release recommendations! From city-building with random elements to mystery adventure

  • Unsolved Case Must Be Finished" (Somi)
  • Genre: Adventure
  • Released on January 18, 2024
  • Price: 800 yen (as of August 25, 2024)
  • Copyright: (C) 2024 Somi
  • #

This title is a mystery adventure game about a certain unsolved case.

The protagonist is a person named Aoi Kiyosaki, who retired from the police force 12 years ago. Kiyosaki was investigating a case in which a young girl named Saika went missing 12 years ago, but despite repeated interviews and investigations, the case remained unsolved. One young policeman visits Kiyosaki and asks for his cooperation to end the "missing Saika-chan case. ...... is the synopsis of the film. The mysterious atmosphere of the game, combined with the dot-picture style graphic design, which is reminiscent of retro games and uses black as a precious color, creates a mysterious atmosphere.



The game's main screen has an interface reminiscent of the screens of message applications and social networking services such as LINE. The testimonies of the people involved are increasingly displayed on this screen, but the main feature of this work is that these testimonies are "the memories of the main character". The player must reassign the testimonies to the correct person, or rearrange them so that they are in the correct chronological order.

This unique puzzle-solving process, which is like solving a jigsaw puzzle, is very interesting, and the "truth of the unsolved case" that is reached at the end of the puzzle-solving process is also very fascinating. I am sure that those who enjoy mystery novels and detective dramas will also be satisfied with this game, so I urge you to sit back, relax, and play it all the way to the conclusion.


No. 3: Create a beautiful village by connecting hexagonal tiles!　Dorfromantik" is a relaxing puzzle game that you can enjoy alone.


⇒No.3: "Dorfromantik," a relaxing puzzle game that allows you to sit back and enjoy the game by yourself.　Here are three new Steam games you should play in July!

  • Dorfromantik" (Toukana Interactive)
  • Genre: Puzzle
  • Release date: April 28, 2022
  • Price: 1,420 yen (as of August 25, 2024)
  • Copyright: (C) 2022 Toukana Interactive
  • #1

This is a puzzle game for one player to create a village landscape by placing tiles. The graphics have a rustic, picture-book-like flavor, and the relaxing, soothing sound is very pleasant and relaxing. The objective of the game is not to clear stages or battle enemies, but to aim for a high score, and there is no time limit, so players can enjoy the game at their own pace.



The basic rule is to place hexagonal tiles, which are dealt in order from the deck and depict various terrain such as plains, forests, railroads, and rivers, on the field by spinning them around and expanding the village.
However, the tiles cannot be placed anywhere, and certain landforms, such as rivers and railroads, can only be placed in such a way that the tiles are connected to each other.


Furthermore, in order to achieve a high score, players must complete quests presented during the game, such as "place more than X number of trees" or "place more than X number of houses," so they must be very aware of the connections between terrains and place tiles with an eye toward the future. The unique gameplay, which is a fusion of a puzzle game and a strategy game, and the exquisite difficulty settings are highly addictive, and even if the game is over, you will find yourself replaying it over and over again.

As a side note, I got hooked on this Steam version of "Dorfromantik" and later purchased the Nintendo Switch version as well.


No. 2: Beautiful maids fight!　Cool and thrilling roguelike deck-building card game "Phantom Rose".


⇒Steam] Cute is right! PC game featuring beautiful girls!

  • Phantom Rose" (makaroll)
  • Genre: Strategy
  • Release date: August 8, 2019
  • Price: 1,500 yen (as of August 25, 2024)
  • Copyright: (c) 2019 makaroll
  • #.

This is a roguelike deck-building card game where players fight enemies in randomly generated stages to get cards and make their deck stronger and stronger. The game has plenty of visual appeal, including a gothic-inspired worldview, stylish graphics based on black and red colors, and the cool and cute maid Reina, the main character.

The roguelike deck-building card game genre is a game in which players select cards from their own deck without drawing any cards. Slay the Spire," a pioneer in this genre, is well known, and this game is full of new gameplay and innovative systems while capturing the essence of the genre.

In battle, the player and his or her opponent's cards are lined up in a row on the field. Cards are dealt in order from left to right, so the basic action of the player is to replace cards in the field with cards in his or her hand while checking the enemy's plan of action. Cards have no cost to use, but instead disappear once used. While collecting cards from battle rewards and the store, players have to decide which card to use at what point in the battle, which is thrilling and enjoyable, and is very addictive, making players want to play again and again.

In addition to the smartphone app version of "Phantom Rose Scarlet," the sequel "Phantom Rose 2 Sapphire" and its smartphone app version have also been released. The smartphone version is basically free to play, so if you are interested in the game, you may want to try it on your smartphone first. By the way, I like the graphics and game system of this game very much, and I have already played all of the smartphone versions as well as the second one. I recommend it.

No. 1: A must-play game!　A masterpiece 2D action game "Dead Cells" where you can play endlessly and become stronger by repeating "death".


⇒Steam] A great adventure at home in the cold winter! Exploration type action game playable on PC

  • Dead Cells" (Motion Twin)
  • Genre: Action
  • Release date: August 7, 2018
  • Price: 2,480 yen (as of August 25, 2024)
  • Copyright: (c) 2018 Motion Twin
  • #

This title is a 2D side-scrolling action game.
It features vivid graphics drawn with dots, and retro game lovers may be excited by this visual alone. The main character in this title is a "cell" shaped like a slime. These cells have the ability to take over the bodies of the dead and manipulate them at will, and the player controls the "warriors" that are born in this way. This somewhat dark setting is also interesting, and combined with the graphics, creates a mysterious and unique worldview.

The player controls the warrior and aims to escape from the mysterious prison where the game takes place. There are three basic controls: attack, jump, and roll to spin forward. Attacks are made with weapons and skills, and players can equip two of each, dropped from enemies or treasure chests along the way, or purchased at stores. The random drop of weapons and skills is one of the main attractions of this game, and the excitement of building up the strongest build by selecting and choosing from a variety of weapons such as melee, long range, and shield weapons, and a variety of skills such as grenades that explode when thrown and traps that automatically attack enemies when placed is irresistible. The excitement of building the strongest build is unbeatable. The game also features a "roguelike" system, in which the stage structure, enemy placement, dropped weapons, and skills all change each time you play, so you can enjoy the game over and over again without getting bored.

When the game is over, all the items and money you have earned will be lost, but there are multiple reinforcement elements that can be carried over to the next game, so the more you play, the stronger you become, and the more fun it becomes to play the rounds.
The addictive nature of the game is truly "swampy. The author, who is completely addicted to this game, has already purchased not only the Steam version, but also the Switch version, the PS version, and the smartphone app version of this game. I strongly hope that as many gamers as possible will experience the fun of "Dead Cells," which is so addictive once you play it.

Did you find any of the five titles you liked?


So, here is a completely subjective ranking of the Steam games that I have played over the past four years and featured in Akiba Research Institute's articles. Although I have chosen a ranking format, all of the five titles are good games that I would recommend with equal pride. We hope you will enjoy playing the titles you are interested in.

Writers, musicians, celebrities, and other "professional reviewers" who have a lot to say about anime are posting their reviews one after another.

We have introduced a number of recommended anime so far, and with the end of the Akiba Research Institute service just around the corner, we asked each professional reviewer to write an anime review with the most straightforward and simple theme of "anime that changed my life.
If you are interested in what kind of anime each work is, please read the full text at the link below, and after watching the full-length anime, please write your own review!

Mobile Suit Gundam the Movie

Click here to read the full review.

<Excerpt from the review

What enlightened me was a feature in an anime magazine that was just beginning to emerge at the time. The magazine's passionate editorial was a discussion of what was so great about "Mobile Suit Gundam" at a time when anime was not as widely recognized as it is today. It was an experience like a light shining on a place where I had been in a fog, and I learned the importance of speaking, communicating, and writing. This experience may have influenced the fact that I am now working as a writer.
The Ganpura Boom was a frenzy. I spent my days running home from school and visiting model stores around the area, being swept up in rumors of the arrival of new models. Gundam became a social phenomenon with the Gundam boom and the release of the movie version, while adults looked at me coldly and indignantly, saying, "Why don't adults understand how great this is? There is still so much more that can be said about Gundam, and no amount of space in the magazine will suffice.
Times have changed. Gundam has become a common language, and we no longer feel the resentment we once did. Even so, the stories and dialogues of "Mobile Suit Gundam" are still profound, and each time we revisit them on various occasions, we discover new charms. In this sense, "Mobile Suit Gundam" is not "the anime that changed my life," but "the anime that continues to change my life.

<Excerpt from the review

As an elementary school student, I had no idea what had happened. Everyone had already died. It wasn't happy, it wasn't birthday, it wasn't anything. But I somehow understood that they had made a mistake that they could no longer redo and had no choice but to reset everything.
What should they have done? I was horrified for a while after watching the movie and kept thinking about that last part for a long time.
The truth is, I still don't have the answer. I think that because they were human beings, they were gray beings with karma and impurities inside, and that is why they had no choice but to be given up on by the "idées". In other words, don't people continue to be given up on by the "idées"? The thought keeps going around, "Was the "idée" right to divide things into black and white? ......
For me, "Densetsu Kyojin Ideon" is another "anime that continues to change my life.

Macross FRONTIER

<Excerpt from the review

Actually, one of the elements of the Macross series, "singing," has gotten to my father. You're an ani-song DJ now, aren't you?
To tell the truth, I didn't know much about anime songs to begin with. But, by chance, he was forced into a situation where he had to become an ani-song DJ.
Two weeks later, I made my debut as an ani-song DJ.
That's crazy, right?
Well, I didn't have a job at the time, and I just had a lot of time on my hands.
I asked a friend of mine who likes anime to recommend a lot of ani-songs to me. I used to be a rock DJ, so I was confident in my ear for "good tunes. I listened to all the songs he recommended and decided to play only the ones I thought were good.
Then I found out that the songs I thought "this one, this one, this one, and this one are all from the same anime work.

That's right! They were all Macross F songs.

<Excerpt from the review

It makes you laugh and cry! I often say that "Osomatsu-kun" is one of the hardest entertainment to make you laugh and cry, but I think it is one of the most difficult in the world of entertainment.
I think "Osomatsu-kun" has a "chic" quality that both the original story and the anime are able to handle.
Now that I think about it, I'm trying to pursue this "one-trick pony" feeling and the ability to make people laugh and cry in my own way.

Every Saturday at 6:30 p.m. It was a gag anime that I used to follow with a sparkling heart, wondering what this week's story would be.

Mobile Police Patlabor 2 the Movie

<Excerpt from the review

This movie was recommended to me by an older colleague.

From the very beginning, it was dark...or rather, very disturbing...Was my memory of the robot animation with comical Izumi-san in my memory mistaken?
It couldn't have been such a realistic war story...

But it is interesting!
It's because the current times are unstable that Tokyo in wartime, depicted with overwhelming drawing power, feels even more realistic, and because I'm an adult now.
The psychological portrayal told only by facial expressions rather than flashy battle scenes draws you in.

There are songs that transcend the boundaries of anime songs and remain in the heart of each individual.

]]> The series has sold more than 2.9 million units worldwide! Fit Boxing 3 -Your Personal Trainer", the latest in the "Fit Boxing" series, will be released on December 5, 2024. https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71377/ Tue, 27 Aug 2024 19:48:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71377/

Imagineer will release the Nintendo Switch software "Fit Boxing 3 -Your Personal Trainer" ("Fit Boxing 3") (domestic version) and "Fitness Boxing 3 : Your Personal Trainer" (international version, released by Nintendo Co. ("Nintendo")) to be released on December 5 this year.

The "Fit Boxing" series is a boxing exercise game in which players punch each other in a rhythm game-like manner using the Joy-Con while receiving direct instruction from an in-game instructor voiced by a popular voice actor. The series has been highly acclaimed by both men and women of all ages for its ease of use and authentic exercise elements that allow players to exercise in the comfort of their own home, and the cumulative worldwide shipments of the series have exceeded 2.9 million units.


Fit Boxing 3" is based on the concept of "starting an exercise routine today," and includes a number of features and functions that will help both experienced players and newcomers to the series feel good about continuing their exercise routine.

Suggestions for the best exercises for each user

The well-known "Daily" mode for daily exercise in the series has evolved to make it easier to continue exercising.
In addition to suggesting a "personal program" optimized for the user from among the exercises that have been completely redesigned from the previous title, the system will suggest changes to the menu based on the playing situation.

For example, if the results of an exercise are good, during the course of the workout, "Would you like to increase the difficulty level?" If the user is in good shape and still has time to spare after completing the entire menu, a "push training" program is suggested to push the user even harder. During the program, the BGM continues to play as you seamlessly advance to the next menu, so you can play while feeling the atmosphere of a gym.

In addition, the new "Instant Training" mode allows users to start "Daily" immediately after starting the game, making it possible to work on exercises whenever they feel motivated to do so.

New play styles "Mitt-Unite" and "Chair Fit"

Mitts" and "Chair Fit" have been added for the first time in the series. In "Mitt-uchi," users can punch at the instructor's mitts as if they were actually boxing, and it is recommended for those who want to concentrate on practicing their punches at their own pace.
In addition, "Chair Fit" allows you to exercise while sitting down, allowing you to adjust the strain on your body when you are anxious about your legs or tired on a particular day. With more types of exercises to choose from depending on the day's condition and mood, more people can now enjoy the game.

[Instructors who are more approachable and supportive

In addition to Lynn, Evan, Bernardo, and Guy, the well-known instructors of the series, Monica (CV. Ai Fayrouz) and Stella (CV. Junko Minagawa) are now available. They not only provided guidance during the exercises, but also sometimes talked about their own episodic stories, making them close to each other, just like a personal trainer.
In addition to the conversation, as you progress through the game, you will be able to try the "Episode Challenge," an exercise tied to an episode. Enjoy special exercises from the instructor.

In "Fit Boxing 3," the instructor's appearance and outfit have also been redesigned. You can now change the hairstyle of the instructor and customize the instructor to your liking.

All 30 BGM songs, including popular Western songs, have been redesigned.

The lineup of background music for the exercises has also been redesigned. The BGM lineup has been redesigned to include 30 songs that are perfect for exercising, including instrumental arrangements of Western songs and original songs that will make you feel good and excited.

Convenient functions to support continuity

The popular support functions of the series have been retained, such as a stamp that can be stamped after each exercise, a calendar that shows exercise history at a glance, data management with graphs, and assistance in determining which actions are difficult. The "Missions" feature provides daily and weekly goals, and the "Monthly Ranks" feature evaluates daily progress. The functionality to motivate daily exercise has been further enhanced.

In addition, some of the play data from "Fit Boxing" and "Fit Boxing 2" will be carried over to this title, so those who do not want to lose track of their past records can play with peace of mind.

Updates and additional content are scheduled to be released in the near future, so stay tuned for more information.

Game Details


The "Spriggan 12" are the 12 elite soldiers of the Alvarez Empire. One of them, the "War Maiden" DiMaria, has a hatred for Lucy and is now a member of the "Spriggan 12". ......


Gray and Juvia are affected by Inbel's magic "Ice Lock", which takes away their ability to think. In a daze of consciousness, they are forced to fight amongst themselves. Juvia, who loves Gray, takes action to prevent him from being hurt. ......


At the bonfires in various locations, you can see various episodes of the fairy tail members. New episodes will be released as the story progresses and characters grow. The fully voiced episodes of the characters are a must-see!


After the battle against the Alvarez Empire, there are original episodes in the game where you can enjoy the charm of the various characters. Let's have an adventure as you run around Fiore. In one of the episodes, Gildarts' love for his daughter is spurred on more than usual by a certain incident. ......


One night a magic spell splits Prue and she is scattered all over Fiore! If you search for Prue and collect "Prue's Paw Stamps," you may receive an item. Let's adventure around and look for Prue!


When an enemy's "Break Gauge" is depleted, you can launch a "Link Attack" in cooperation with your friends. Choose one of your friends to fight with and work together to inflict massive damage.
Link Attacks vary in power and attributes depending on the ally, and also activate various additional effects.


When all of the enemy's "Break Gauge" has been shaved off, the more powerful linked attack "Unison Raid" can be launched.
Depending on the combination of friends, special unison raids may be seen!

]]> The ninth hero is now available in both Great and Normal forms as a compatibility kit! The voice actor Yasuyuki Tai took on the challenge of creating the "Great Burn Gaan" of the "Yuusha Seisen Burn Gaan" series! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71348/ Tue, 27 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71348/

When you are a working adult, you tend to have a lot of plastic models piled up in your busy life. ...... In this series, Yasuyuki Tai, a voice actor who loves robots and plastic models, takes on the challenge of building plastic models on your behalf!

The concept is "Even busy working people can make it this far on weekends and vacations! The only two rules of this article are that the model must be finished as an unassembled model and that you can spend only one or two days to build it! Read this series, and you will surely find the plastic model you want to build.

Taiyuki's Weekend Plastic Model Vol. 98 The Great Barn Gaan

The "Yusha" series of robot anime still holds a special place in the hearts of many fans. In the "New Generation Robot Battle Brave Saga" (1998), a PlayStation game in which the heroes join forces to fight a giant evil, the "Great Barn Gaan," also known as the ninth hero, was created.

Although he only appeared in the game, his popularity was as great as that of his predecessors, and he reigned as a popular hero for a long time.

It is not that there have not been three-dimensional products in the past, but this time, from Kotobukiya, which has been actively promoting the kit version of the "Brave Series" aiming for the best proportions, finally ...... and suddenly "Great Burn Gaan" has been released! The package is a scene of the completion of the combination.

The package is a powerful illustration reminiscent of a scene where the merging is complete.

This kit is a companion kit of the Great Burn Gahn and Burn Gahn. In this article, we will start with the "Ryujin Gosei Burn Gaan" before the Great Combination.

♪ Gyaaan gyaaan gyaaan ♪

Dedede♪

Dedede♪

Dedede♪

Dedde♪

Dedeeeee♪

♪ Telere-re-re-re ♪

Taken in the image of the OP video. You can reproduce the floating state by using the "New Flying Base" (sold separately).

Now, let's take a look at the heroic figure of Burn Gaan again. No stickers. With parts division and pre-painted parts, reproduce the color separation up to this point. Moreover, no glue is required for this level of perfection!

I feel that the know-how gained from the "Yusha Series" kits that have been released up to now has come to fruition here.

I didn't remember much about the back view, but this is how it was supposed to look. The cannon has a ball joint connection.

The face parts and the metallic green forehead are painted. The face is sharply sculpted and has a sturdy expression.

The lower jaw of the dragon on the chest can be opened and closed. You can see the gun muzzle inside.

The component parts of the waist are arranged in the same way as the previous generations of heroic robots. The side armor shows the design of dragon's claws.

This is how the legs of a heroic robot should look like! I think. The legs have a bold, angular silhouette and strong legs.

Clear parts are used for the shoulders of the truck that transforms into the body of Barn Gaan when in "Gaan Dasher" form, which is the driver's seat. The parts are carefully divided to avoid unnatural joints.

Here, too, there is a design that looks like a dragon's claw.

The forearms are designed to look like a combination of a dragon's head and claws. Apart from the elbows and wrists, the middle of the forearms also have a movable part that can be folded inward, allowing for poses with a lot of power.

A cannon is connected to the center block of the backpack. Each of the left and right sides have ball joint connections. The wing can also rotate on its axis and swing backward.

The red surface on the bottom of the backpack is also reproduced in separate parts.

The wheels at the rear of the gun dasher are also placed three on each side. Here also color-coded by dividing the parts.

The wrists come in 5 types, 10 in total, including 2 types of weapon handles on the left and right sides, 2 types of open hands, and an assembled fist.

Two Deyuaru Lancer can be connected with joint parts to form twin blades. The chest ornament is movable to a certain degree, so if you adjust the position, you can also have both arms forward to hold the twin blades.

As with previous "Yusha Series" kits, the range of motion is good. The ankles are also connected with ball joints for good ground contact. The wings can be replaced to create different angles.

Holding dual lancers in both hands, Burn Gaan approaches the enemy.

It leaps up its wings and raises its twin blades in a big swing.

I moved in even closer with the agitation. It is a powerful scene, but it is a little difficult to see the head.

This is a point of concern for a heroic robot with many decorations on its chest, but depending on the angle, the face may be hidden like this. That is why this kit comes with a neck part for when you see it in agitation.

Here is the neck for the agitated view. How do you like it? The face is now clearly visible!

In addition, this kit also comes with neck parts for the plastic kit "Great Exkaiser" (sold separately). You can update the pose of the Great Exhauser.

Since it is for agitation, the neck will be longer when viewed from a normal angle. Please note.

Great Combination to Great Burn Gahn!

Next, we introduce the Great Barn Gurn. This is the main body of Burn Gaan and a set of Great Parts with Mach Phoenix transformed. The wrist comes with the same shape as Burn Gaan, but in a different color.

The legs replace part of the shins and ankles.

Shoulders are huge with some parts replaced.

Forearms are replaced entirely. For the chest, parts of both sides of the dragon are removed and parts of Mach Phoenix are combined. The body is divided into several blocks, making it easy to combine.

Replace the head ornament.

Replace part of the backpack, change the wing angle and combine the Mach Phoenix wings to the base of the wings.

Great...

Burn...

Gahn!

SE "Kung!　Kung!　Kung!　Kung!　Kung!"

So the Great Barn Gurn is completed! What a volume!

The image has changed dramatically with the addition of red and yellow parts.

The basic part of the head remains the same, only the forehead ornament has been replaced. The parts division here is also excellent.

The emblem of the bird's face on the chest is also beautifully divided, including clear parts. The arms are movable to some extent so that they do not interfere with the movement of the arms.

The ankles are combined with the magnificent clogs. The ankles have been replaced with Great's ankles. The shin parts are gorgeous.

The nose of the Mach Phoenix is attached to the backpack. The wings have been intensely enlarged.

The white blocks on the heels can be moved backward.

The kick from this huge body looks quite heavy.

The Great Barn Gaan can also have twin blades and dual lancers.

Since the chest parts are movable, both arms can be held out in front even in this form.

The whole figure in the back.

How do you like the volume? It's so cool, I can't help but smile!

The forearms also bend a little in the middle, so you can see a powerful standing figure.

The weight is surprisingly light, so I was able to display it on the New Flying Base without any difficulty.

Gold paint is added for an extra touch!

This time, I painted the yellow parts gold (Gaianotes Eldoran Gold).

I painted it a slightly brighter gold than the color of the molding. I think this alone has added a slightly more luxurious look.

There are various types of gold available, so you can choose the color you like best.

And the Great Barn Gurn has this gorgeous look!

The effect is great because of the large yellow area on the wing and chest panels.

This makes me want to build both forms of Burn Gaan and Great Burn Gaan side by side.

So, how did you like Great Burn Gaan?

Incidentally, Great Burn Gaan has a "Full Weapon" form, a "Hyper Burn Gaan" form, the traditional golden form of the hero, and even a Dark Great Burn Gaan form.

How far will Kotobukiya go? We have high expectations. I am also looking forward to hearing more about the kit version of the Yusha Robo.

See you soon!

ARTPLA SCULPTURE WORKS Iron Giant God vs. https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71355/ Mon, 26 Aug 2024 18:08:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71355/

The final installment of "YU-GO's Character Modeling LABO" is an example of the latest work in Kaiyodo's "ARTPLA SCULPTURE WORKS" series, "Galian of the Armored World: Iron Emblem, Iron Giant God vs. Evil God Warrior".

YU-GO's Character Modeling LABO Final "ARTPLA SCULPTURE WORKS: Iron God vs.

The "Iron Giant God" and "Evil God Warrior" from the OVA "Galian the Armored World: Iron Crest" have been sculpted by various garage kit makers since their release, with their attractive design that combines mechanical elements and biological lines. In recent years, a toy kit has also been released by a different manufacturer, but now, after 38 years since its appearance, a plastic model that can be considered the definitive version has been released!

Moreover, the kit was completely supervised by Yutaka Izubuchi, who was in charge of the mecha design, so you can feel the strong attention to detail.

In this article, we will take a closer look at the kit, which is a great work of art.

Let's start with the box art.

The box art is by Goshi Nakamura, and has an attractive, dignified look.

When you open the box, you will be overwhelmed by the density and the amount of information. The density and amount of information is overwhelming. Whenever I open a box of plastic models, I am always excited with a sense of anticipation.

Let's take a look at the parts right away.

There is so much information that you can enjoy just looking at the parts.

The nippers used this time are Mineshima's "Finishing Nipper Kai".

ミネシマ フィニッシングニッパー 改

View at Rakuten Ichiba View at Amazon.co.jp

The grip is easy to hold and the blade has high cutting ability, so these nippers are very powerful for cutting out parts.

For gate marks and parting laain on parts, Argofile Japan's "Magi-Suk (Multi-Zirconia Scraper)" was a great help.

Designed from the modeler's point of view, it is an excellent tool that is not only easy to use, but also has cutting ability and rigidity.

As with the Evangelion Unit 2 that we previously made, the technique of creating a "surface" at the joints between parts can be easily performed.

⇒Reference article

Kaiyodo "ARTPLA SCULPTURE WORKS Evangelion Unit 2: The Beast in its second animal form "Geofront Blood Battle"" - Easy assembly and special paint job!

When machined, the figure will have this organic look, so there is no need to erase the matching lines.

Since some parts are very fine, we will file the gate marks, etc. God Hand's "God File" and Wave's "File Stick" (No. 400 to 1000) are used to carefully and painstakingly finish the work.

This is the assembled state. At this point, it is already uncanny.

Finish by painting!

Now let's get to the fun part: painting. This time, I mainly used "Deep Red" by Finisher's and "Monza Red" by GSI Creos.

Since the molding color is red, just blowing on the red will give it a nice coloring. Believe in the potential of the paint and apply more and more without hesitation.

For the metal color, use Farejo's "Model Color. It is a water-soluble acrylic, so it is suitable for painting over lacquer-based paints. Even if it comes off, it can be easily removed with a cotton swab or toothpick moistened with water.

For the silver portion, GSI Creos "Little Armory Color Military Firearms Color Stainless Silver" and "Mr. Color Super Metallic Super Iron 2" are used. Using different textures of silver can create a nice atmosphere.

It is recommended to paint over the colors in this way while enjoying the tone of the colors.

Completion! Although there is a lot of work to be done, the joy of the finished product is even greater.

The expression of the Evil Soldier's hand is also wonderful.

The density is increased by painting the details in detail.

I wanted to contrast the Evil Warrior with the Iron God, so I used a matte finish. Using different metallic colors for each point gives a nice finish.

The kit itself has a lot of information and a lot of work to do because it is a confrontation object, but it is a composition that has been carefully considered for the creator, so if you take your time and work on it, I am sure you will finish it beautifully.

Please enjoy the existence of plastic models and create your own favorite characters with your own hands.

I hope to see you again somewhere soon!

Comments

Interview with Ayase

─ ─ What was your first impression when you received the offer from "MonHun Now"?
I was very happy. I am a big fan of the "Monster Hunter" series, so I was so happy to be able to work for MonHun that I immediately said "I want to do it.

─ I heard that you read the MonHun strategy book until it was torn to shreds, so please tell us about your thoughts on the work when creating the music for this project. Please tell us about your thoughts on the work when you were creating the music for this project, and any particular points you focused on.
I put many elements of MonHun in the lyrics of this song. Especially for this song, I wanted to overwhelmingly fill it with MonHun love, so I included all the MonHun elements that I thought were interesting.

─ Do you have a "favorite" monster?
I guess the Diablos. It looks like a demon and is very cool. It tickles boys' hearts. The horns and other details are cool, too. There are many other monsters that I like. In particular, I have been playing "Monster Hunter Portable" since the very beginning, so I am very attached to the monsters that have been around since the beginning.

─ ─ Do you have a "favorite" weapon type?

I have always been very fond of the great sword. I like that it has the air of a hero. The twin-sword and lance types are also cool, but I have an image of using the great sword in every series. It's cool, isn't it?
MonHun Now" is a game that can be enjoyed outside, but how was your experience playing "MonHun Now"?
Of course I was looking forward to playing it, and when I actually played it, I was very excited to think that the day had finally come when MonHun could be played on a smartphone with this quality.

─ How did you feel about the real-world hunting in "MonHun Now" compared to the previous MonHun series?
I think that even fans who actually played Monster Hunter on game consoles are all hunters at the moment they are playing, so when it becomes more linked to the real world, it's hard to get out of the MonHun swamp.

─ ─ Do you have any memories of the "Monster Hunter" series?
I am a video game fan, but I have not been exposed to that many games, and I tend to play one series that I like a lot. I first encountered games when I was a child, playing the portable games I mentioned earlier. Up until then, I would play party games with my friends when I was with other people. MonHun was the first game I played with the same level of dedication as I do when I get together with friends, and it was the game that started my gaming life.

─ What was your inspiration for the music?
When I write music, I like the atmosphere of the music to be "nice" or "penetrating," of course, but I also want the listener to feel surprise, excitement, and stimulation, like, "I've never heard this song before. MonHun has been a long-running series, but with each new release, a new system is introduced, and it never gets old, so I think fans and newcomers alike find it incredibly stimulating. I think that the fun of such content that is constantly being updated is something that, as an artist, I try to create music that I never get tired of, or that I never think I will get tired of, and that I want my music to be a series of interesting songs. I think that feeling came from these entertainment experiences.


─ ─ The purpose of "Monster Hunter Now" is to give everyone a chance to go out and explore the real world, while also connecting with other people. Have you had any interesting encounters or experiences while out and about recently?
Well, I worked with Yasutaka Nakata on this song, and Yasutaka is a senior musician who has been very good to me in my personal life, and we often go out for drinks. We had our first meeting to discuss the music for "Monster Hunter Now," or rather, what kind of music we were going to make, over a drink. At that time, he took me to a delicious fugu (blowfish) restaurant. We talked about what kind of song we were going to make while eating the fugu. It was a nice restaurant, but I noticed a sign outside that said, "The restaurant will close at the end of next week. I read it carefully and found that the owner had decided to continue running the store until he was 80 years old. During the time until I turned 80, I really came to love this town, and I have many memories of the regular customers who came here, but since I had decided to stay until I was 80, I am taking this opportunity to close the store. I love this town, and I hope that it will continue to be lively even after I close my store," he wrote in his own handwriting. Imagining the strong feelings of the store owner, we both thought to ourselves, "This place is going to disappear. This episode made me realize that there is a lot of history in the city. I felt that the city is based on people's history.

───Did anything inspire you in the creation of this song?
It is not so much that I came up with the idea from some major new input or stimulus, but rather, since I am not active as a solo singer very often, I made use of my past experiences that I have accumulated in my life and what I have cultivated in myself through YOASOBI and my other activities. I made use of all the experience I have accumulated in the course of my life and the things I have cultivated through YOASOBI and other activities. The other major factor was working with Yasutaka on the theme of "Let's have fun making it, let's have fun doing it.

─ You mentioned that you incorporated many elements of MonHun! Are there any particular parts that you would like people to listen to?
There are some elements of MonHun that I would like people to listen to. For example, the monsters in MonHun, the difficult quests that come with higher hunter rank, and the fact that you can complete quests that you thought were impossible after trying them many times. I wrote the lyrics in the beginning thinking that it would be nice if I could link the idea of overcoming various obstacles in daily life and sometimes failing because you can't overcome them. But as a result, the love for MonHun overflowed, and the song became filled with MonHun elements. I included a lot of elements that MonHun players would understand, such as the monster and the cutting ability, so I hope you will enjoy the whole song.

─ ─ Do you have any words for those who start playing "Monster Hunter Now" because of this song?
Well, of course I want fans of the series to give it a try, and for those who know Monster Hunter but have never played it before, it's easy to get into because it's on a smartphone, and I take full responsibility that it's an interesting game, so please try it and become a hunter. Please try out the world of MonHun and become a hunter.

Comment by Yasutaka Nakata


I am very happy to have been involved in this music that colors the world of "Monster Hunter Now".
Together with the wonderful artist Ayase, we have created an exciting song that expresses the appeal of Monster Hunter. I hope you will enjoy it along with the game.

]]> The BEST of Gacha Decided! Wacky Kaiyama's 10 best gachas of all time! Wacky Kaizan's latest gacha exploration, the final installment. https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71358/ Mon, 26 Aug 2024 00:34:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71358/

This is the last time! It is common knowledge that where there is a beginning, there is also an end, but it is sad to see the end actually come. Finally, I was told at capsule toy events that I read Akiba Research Institute's articles. I wish I could have continued until at least 100 times!

I also want to thank Mr. Arita, who invited me to the event for the publication of the Cosmos Gacha book. It was a three-way partnership. I would like to thank ...... for correcting my poor writing every time. Thank you for walking with an old man who just loves capsule toys too much. You kept the deadlines, didn't you?

I would also like to thank all the manufacturers for taking time out of their busy schedules to meet the deadlines, and to you out there who have been looking forward to reading this column every month, thank you from the bottom of my heart. In this final installment, we will introduce 10 selections from the best and the worst that have caused a stir in the industry over the past 8 years and 6 months! We will look back.

February 2018 - The 13th Annual Pin Mic Accessory / Kitan Club

Attach a microphone to your chest and you instantly feel like a celebrity! This playful gadget made me laugh. It had no microphone function at all.

I was a fan of the quiz show "Super Adversary Quiz Battle! (Fuji TV affiliate), the sound staff warned me in real life, "Please take that (pin microphone accessory) off, it interferes with the microphone.

August 2018 19th Dangomushi / Bandai


We were one of the first to feature this gacha, which was a hot topic at the time. All the parts are molded from different parts. That's why it rounds properly. I was astonished by the well-calculated design. This was the start of the mass production of real insect gachas. The "praying mantis" that followed was also amazing! The sheer number of moving parts was breathtaking. It was also around this time that the term "capsule rest toy" was introduced.

⇒ Complete Transformation! Dango-Bug & the nostalgic mini capsule machine that can be messed up at home anytime! Wacky Kaiyama's Latest Gacha Exploration, Vol. 19

October 2019 No. 33 Onigiringu/Kitan Club

This ring kicked off the era of the ring warring states. It was also revolutionary in that the capsule itself was an onigiri. When you pop it open like a ring case, you see a kawaii ring in the middle! A closer look reveals the ingredients! The one that looked the most like jewelry was the salmon roe, but I couldn't resist the wrinkled texture of the pickled plums! The most humble was the kelp. The black ring with sesame seeds on it was a little too much.


If there is a "~ring" at the end, a pun ring is always made. It's a very gacha-like world.

Feb. 2020 No.37 Bus Get-Off Button Light Mascot / Toys Spirits

This one has also become a big boom. It is a gem that honestly fulfilled my urge to press it at least once. At the time of its release, this capsule vending machine was installed in Tachikawa buses in the Tama area of Tokyo, a very rare collaboration. I didn't think gacha would ever become so civilized.

July 2020 - Episode 41: Cat Pen Okiki / Qualia


Adorable cat figures are also a big hit. The way it twists its hips and lifts something is just like a scene from the opening of a national cartoon. Perhaps it is embedded in the DNA of the Japanese people, but it is amazing that this figure was accepted without any sense of discomfort! It has become a long-selling cat, with the series continuing to this day.

June 2021 No.52 Citcheon BGM Button / J. Dream


I have been familiar with many gachas that allow you to enjoy "sound" by pressing a button, and this one is a great one that plays the full-length intro to TM NETWORK's "GET WILD". At the time, the phrase "Get Wild Retirement" was all over SNS, and when I took off my suit after work and unbuttoned one button on my shirt, if the intro to "GET WILD" came on, I automatically transformed into Ryo Saeba in my brain! We had a lot of fun with that story. It was a button that instantly made me "smile" and "chuckle".

April 2022 No.62 Origami Folded by a Gal / Brightlink

On the base paper, there is a close-up of a doe-eyed gal and a messy origami paper at ....... They say these are origami cranes. The fact that such a garbage thing was sold is first of all a choberig~. Later, when I found out that it was an old man at the factory who was making them, I lost all my enthusiasm (laugh).

May 2022 No.63 Who the hell is this?


This was amazing. This gacha was initially available in some areas of the Kanto region, but it was quickly rolled out nationwide! A capsule contained a photo of a stranger, and I had no idea how to use it. It was a mysterious item, as if I had been tricked by a fox. If you look at the back of the capsule, you can even see the "F●JI Color" logo.

At the time this gacha went on sale, we were in the middle of the Corona disaster, and everyone I met was wearing a mask. Maybe it was refreshing to see the real face of a stranger who didn't know who he or she was. No, perhaps they rather wanted it. For some reason, pictures of my uncle were popular among high school girls. I still wonder about that excitement.

September 2022 - The 67th Animarie Collection 1/1 Funkorogashi / Studio Sota

Through this gacha, I have become friends with the president of Sota, whom I have met often. Thank you very much for giving us an interview, appearing on Youtube, and inviting us to dinner. It was very exciting to hear that you made the prototype from a 100-year-old specimen because you could not order a real dung beetle! To be honest, the modeling of the feces was so realistic that I wondered if this was actually what you wanted to make. I thought, "Actually, I wanted to make this one more. Some people asked me, "Why did you pick this one up when there are other mysterious creature figures out there?" I felt the mystique (?) of creativity in such a situation.

Thank you very much for everything you have done for us, KenElephant. In fact, even for the times we did not cover in this article, you graciously sent us toys, and we were grateful every time for your generosity. I still have those toys displayed at home.

All of Ken-Elephant's figures are of high quality, and every time I was impressed by how carefully they were made. Especially, I was so excited that I peed my pants when I saw this gacha figure, because the theme of this gacha was the candy I have been familiar with since I was a child.

The reproduction of the salmon roe, it's amazing. If you remove the lid of the lip, you will find a heaping portion of salmon roe inside. Only an alien would come up with such an idea!

SnackBox MICRO LITE - Main Features

Compatible with PC and Switch

MICRO LITE can be connected to PC, Nintendo Switch, Android, and Steam Deck, so you can play fighting games on each platform. (PlayStation [PS5/PS4/PS3] and Xbox are not supported.)

Amber, one of the fastest low-profile mechanical switches on the market.

The 12 action buttons are equipped with Kailh low-profile "Amber" switches, which have a linear-type speed axis and a 1mm actuation point. Compared to normal low-profile switches (1.5 mm actuation point), the Amber switches are 0.5 mm shorter and maximize the power in fighting games, where a split second of operation speed can directly affect the outcome of the game. In addition, switch components can be hot-swapped to your favorite switches without removing screws to enjoy customization. Furthermore, the switch functions can be customized with a dedicated application to pursue quicker operation.

Amber" low-profile switch

SOCD (Tournament) Mode Switching Function


The SOCD (tournament) mode is a function that controls the movement when simultaneously pressing opposing buttons such as up and down, etc. The settings are switched according to the rules of e-sports tournaments, and MICRO LITE can switch the priority when simultaneously pressing directional buttons (up and down, left and right). In the standard classic mode, the upper button is given priority when the up and down buttons are pressed simultaneously, while in the tournament mode, no button is given priority when up, down, left and right are pressed simultaneously. The setting is toggled by holding down the button to be set for 5 seconds when the USB plug is connected to the main unit.

Dedicated smartphone app "JF Connect

By downloading the dedicated smartphone app "JF Connect" from the iOS App Store / Google Play and connecting the MICRO LITE via Bluetooth, you can easily set button function settings, customize LED colors and lighting modes, and even update firmware with your smartphone. You can easily configure settings.

Detachable USB cable

The cable is detachable and can be removed and stored when the controller is not in use. The USB Type-C plug connected to the main unit is L-shaped, making it difficult to disconnect even if the cable is unexpectedly pulled. Since the cable is detachable, even if the cable becomes disconnected, the MICRO LITE can be used again by replacing the cable.

EVA mat on the bottom

A moderately heavy bottom plate is used to ensure stability. An EVA mat is attached to the bottom to prevent slippage even when MICRO LITE is placed on a desk or lap.

A wide variety of customized parts (optional accessories) are available.

JunkFood Custom Arcades, the company that developed and sells MICRO LITE, focuses on the freedom of customization and offers a wide range of customized parts to change the color and surface shape of button cover parts (concave and convex) and the feel and pressing pressure of switch parts.

]]> Will you be able to brag to your friends if you can clear the game? Seven "deadly games" that are supposed to be learned by dying! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71360/ Mon, 26 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71360/

These games are commonly referred to as "death games," in which the player must learn the strategy while dying many times in the face of numerous difficult obstacles, such as powerful enemies and instant-death traps that cannot be detected on the first sight. Although it is a genre that selects the right players, the sense of accomplishment gained in exchange for the difficulty is exceptional, and if you are good at action games or know how to play them, you should definitely give it a try.

In this article, we will introduce seven carefully selected recommended "deadly games" according to difficulty level.

Difficulty: ★☆☆☆☆☆

Demon's Souls

  • Release date: Nov. 12, 2020
  • Genre: Action RPG
  • Maker: Sony Interactive Entertainment

A remake of "Demon's Souls" released in 2009. Set in the exiled country of Boletaria, which has been shrouded in fog, players embark on a journey to defeat daemons in various regions and seal up old beasts. The original version is a monumental title that later became the progenitor of the "soul-like" genre, and the remake faithfully recreates every aspect of the original, from its dungeons to its enemies. Players can enjoy the royal road of "death games," including battles against powerful enemies and adventures in which players explore while being careful to avoid traps.

Black Myth: Goku

  • Release date: 2024/8/20
  • Genre: Action RPG
  • Maker: Game Science Interactive Technology Co.

Developed in China, this action RPG is based on "Journey to the West," one of the "Four Fantastic Books" among Chinese classical novels, in which the player, as the "Heavenly Lifegiver," embarks on an adventure to revive Sun Wukong, the Great Sage of Qi Tian. In addition to exploring a realistic field rendered with the latest game engine "Unreal Engine 5," players will enjoy speedy combo attacks using a stick and combat using "Jintsu," a technique that allows players to use a variety of moves, such as stopping an enemy's movement or transforming themselves into another player. Some of the bosses in the game are strong enemies that are inevitably hard to defeat, but this game basically emphasizes exhilaration, and the difficulty level is moderate for a "game to the death.

⇒Review of the epic action RPG "Black Myth: Wukong" from Japan!

Difficulty level: ★★★☆☆☆☆

Hollow Knight

  • Release date: 2/25/2017
  • Genre: Action Adventure
  • Maker: Team Cherry

2D action adventure. Set in Harrow Nest, an underground kingdom inhabited by insects, players will explore the country's history and mysteries. This title features nimble combat using nails as weapons and an exploratory element in which players use various powers to solve mysteries and open up unknown areas. The player can gain abilities such as two-step jumps and high-speed dashes by visiting various locations, which will give him an advantage in battles and adventures.

A total of four DLCs are also available, allowing players to experience new events not found in the main story and enjoy battles with powerful bosses. The last DLC, "Seekers of God," offers a series of battles against a total of 42 bosses, including both previously fought bosses and new bosses, a challenging content that defies common sense.

HADES

  • Release date: September 17, 2020
  • Genre: Action
  • Manufacturer: Supergiant Games

An action game with "roguelike" elements in which the structure of the dungeon changes with each challenge. Controlling the main character Zagreus, an immortal prince, the player aims to escape from the underworld. The game is a work in which the player learns know-how while dying, but there are also special enhancements that continue to be effective no matter how many times the game is redone, and the difficulty level gradually decreases as the player trains Zagreus over time. On the other hand, the "load" system, which is released after the game is cleared, can be used to impose various restrictions and conversely increase the difficulty level. The game can be enjoyed by beginners as well as advanced players.

Stellar Blade

  • Release date: 2024/4/26
  • Genre: Action Adventure
  • Publisher: Sony Interactive Entertainment

An action game by Korean game maker SHIFT UP, known for "Goddess of Victory: NIKKE" and other titles. The game depicts the battle of Eve, a soldier dispatched from a space colony to take back Earth, which has been taken over by an unknown monster, into the hands of the human race. In addition to combos using blades, players can enjoy intense battles with a variety of techniques, such as "beta skills," which consume energy to unleash powerful attacks, and "shooting mode," which allows one-sided attacks from a distance.

The level of difficulty from the beginning to the latter half of the game can be described as "a challenging action game. If you are good at action games, you will be able to progress smoothly, but once you reach the end of the story, the enemies become stronger and you will have to retry to fight bosses. The boss battles will test your experience and skill.

Difficulty: ★★★★

Thymesia

  • Release date: 2022/9/1
  • Genre: Action RPG
  • Maker: Game Source EntertainmentTeam17

In this action RPG by Taiwanese game studio Overborder Studio, the main character Corvus must recover his lost memories and fight to save the kingdom of Hermes, which has been decimated by a plague and monsters roam the streets. The game offers a wide variety of attack methods, including melee attacks with swords, long-range attacks in which the player transforms into a crow and flies its wings, and "plague weapons," which use plague taken from the enemy and transformed into various shapes.

Another unique feature of this title is the introduction of a unique system in which the enemy has two gauges, his physical strength and his "stance," both of which must be reduced to zero before he can be defeated. The key to victory is to switch between these gauges depending on the situation.

Difficulty: ★★★★★

SEKIRO: SHADOWS DIE TWICE

  • Release date: 3/22/2019
  • Genre: Action/Adventure
  • Publisher: FromSoftware

An action-adventure set in the Sengoku period of Japan. It depicts the battle of the main character, Wolf, who fights to regain his stolen Lord. The main feature of this work is the combat that combines two systems, "taijutsu" and "ninjutsu". When the opponent's torso gauge increases as he takes damage or defends against attacks with good timing and repels them, and when this gauge is full, he can aim for the "Ninja Kill," a one-hit-kill technique. When the gauge fills up, the player can aim for a "ninja kill," a one-hit-kill technique. The enemy's torso gauge decreases little by little as time passes, so it is important to attack thoroughly so as not to give the enemy a chance to recover.

Another feature of this work is that there is no concept of level. With special items, players can increase their HP, attack power, and torso gauge, but these items must be obtained by defeating strong opponents. The game does not allow you to just level up in advance and overwhelm your opponent, so you must improve your own skills.

Comments

Soichiro Hoshi


I was so excited to finally be able to see and experience the long-awaited "SEED FREEDOM" this year, and I and all the fans were so moved and excited that I was occupied with FREEDOM for about half of the year 2024.
It was sad to see the long run of the film come to an end, but it was also refreshing, and such a sense of fulfillment could not be experienced very often....
But this fall! Soon! We can see FREEDOM again at the theater! And as a special edition!
In 2024, are you sure you can still enjoy it this much?
Our "SEED FREEDOM" is not over yet!

Rie Tanaka


I believe that it is thanks to your support and thoughts that we have decided to screen the special edition of "SEED FREEDOM". Congratulations! And, truly, thank you!
The movie that will be screened this time has been updated with about 500 cuts or more and will have an epilogue cut. And they will be distributing new admission gifts! The first round of admission gifts for special edition screenings will be distributed starting September 20.
We are so happy to have the opportunity to bring everyone back to the big screen to see SEED FREEDOM again. We don't love it because we need it, we need it because we love it! We hope you enjoy it to the fullest!

Director Mitsuo Fukuda


With your support and encouragement, we have decided to screen a special edition of "Gundam SEED FREEDOM".
In the film that was released on January 26, we were not able to make all the cuts to the extent that we were satisfied with due to time constraints, but this time we have updated those cuts and made changes to various parts of the film, including parts that were uncomfortable after the screening. I think we can say that this is the complete version of "SEED FREEDOM".
Also, at the end of the ending, we wrote a short episode as an epilogue cut. Please enjoy it as well.

＜PROLOGUE>
C.E. (Cosmic Era).
In this era, there are two types of people: those who are born with superior physical abilities and brains (the "Coordinators") and those who are born as they are (the "Naturals").
Ideologies of the "Coordinators" and "Naturals" clashed over their own existence, leading to a war using military force.
In the midst of the war, the "Destiny Plan," a system to create a world without competition by forcing each individual to take on a role, was proposed, but in order to protect the free future and hope of mankind, the "Destiny Plan" was rejected in the midst of the war.
The war came to an end at the cost of many lives, but the conflict and hatred between the two races of mankind continues to smolder in various parts of the world.

Musubi-chaya, an onigiri (rice ball) shop, opened in a back alley about a 3-minute walk from Suehirocho.

It is located near PC SHOP ARC, where a cosplay store "Mitsubado" used to operate after an apparel store called "Sephirotic Tree" used to operate.
Incidentally, "Mitsubado" is now operating next door on a smaller scale.


At the time of our visit, the shop was closed for the Bon vacations (until the 25th) and was not open for business, but the menu included onigiri (180 yen), miso soup (100 yen), and ramune (300 yen).

The shop is said to be a "rice ball shop" that uses domestic brand rice delivered directly from farmers, so why don't you try their signature taste?

]]> Gekito Sengokuden Vs! Foggy Kawanakajima" will go on sale on August 24! The latest work of Sengoku Warlord Seal by Studio Melphan of "Gamla Twist https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71333/ Fri, 23 Aug 2024 18:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71333/

Studio Melfan, creator of numerous omake sticker designs, including "Gamla Twist," "Ramen Baba," "Time Slip Battle," and "Showdown! Gekito Sengokuden" series, the latest in the "Gekito Sengokuden" series of stickers featuring warriors from all over Japan, will go on sale from August 24, 2024 (Saturday)! Kawanakajima in the Mist" will go on sale on August 24, 2024 (Saturday).

Gekito Sengokuden" is an extra sticker product based on the theme of warlords of the Warring States period, and "Gekito Sengokuden - Duel! Foggy Kawanakajima" is the long-awaited fourth in the series.


The first volume, "Takeda Gundan! Takeda Gundan" was released, many users asked for a Kenshin Uesugi character in the "Gekito Sengokuden" series, so the fourth installment, "Showdown! Kawanakajima in the Mist" will be released. The theme of this sticker product is the "Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima," in which Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin, two of the most popular figures in the Warring States period, clashed.


Gekito Sengokuden" is a 48mm square sticker that became popular in the 1980s, and will be sold every year from 2021 as a "samurai seal" to attract tourism and revitalize the local community. This year's stickers are based on the theme of the "Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima" and feature the heroic generals of the Takeda and Uesugi armies. On the back are tourist information on the three cities.
The illustrations were created by Miharu Shimojo, a popular illustratorfrom Studio Melfan, who led the sticker culture in the 1980s.Normally, sticker illustrations are created by a team, but for "Gekito Sengokuden" all characters are drawn and colored by Shimojo Yoshiharu, the top illustrator at Melfan. This product has been highly anticipated by many sticker fans, including sticker fans of the past.

In the past series, there was the "Rokubun Sen Series" in which the members of the Sanada family were made into stickers using Japanese paper materials, and now Masayuki Sanada finally appears as the first "prism (sparkling)" sticker of the Sanada family, and as the winning sticker. Since the fourth Kawanakajima was his first battle, the sticker of the young Masayuki Sanada is the highlight of the fourth series.
The stickers are 36 in all, and it will be interesting to see who will be on the stickers and how the generals will be depicted. Who will be on the stickers, and how will the generals be depicted?


The stickers are also linked to the "Sengoku Puzzle," which is linked to the Internet. The stickers will also be linked to the "Sengoku Puzzle," an Internet-based site that provides more in-depth tourist information in a style that allows visitors to learn more about the area while having fun.

By entering the three marks on the sticker into the Sengoku Puzzle page, visitors can see a draft of the warlord as well as more detailed information on tourist resources with pictures. Get in-depth information that did not fit within the confines of the sticker.

]]> Steam] Late summer heat is at home! Three new Steam indie games recommended for August! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71334/ Fri, 23 Aug 2024 18:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71334/

How are you doing, Akiba Research Institute readers? This is Nero Hyakkabe, a writer who buys too many games. I think that many of you may have started work after the Bon vacation is over. It is a time when we tend to suffer from summer fatigue both physically and mentally, but that is why it is important to take a break by playing games. That is why we would like to introduce a selection of recommended main dee titles released in July that you can enjoy while taking it easy.

1. Cute little Og's big adventure! Og and the Secret Forest," a hand-drawn action-puzzle adventure with an overwhelmingly large volume!


Have you had any "adventures" lately?
Whether it is a trip to a place you have never been or the purchase of an expensive item, adventure can be found in many forms in our daily lives, and "Og and the Secret Forest" is a title that will tickle your adventurous spirit to its fullest.

Ogg and the Secret Forest" is an action-adventure game with a 2D low-down perspective. The most distinctive feature of the game is its graphics. The cute, hand-drawn illustration-style visuals have a warm, heartwarming, picture-book-like feel, and just moving the characters around is soothing and captivating.

The main character in this work is "Chibi-Ogu," a cute platypus with a chubby white body. He puts on his hat as usual, grabs an insect net, and sets off on an adventure around the neighborhood, but when he follows a strange bird he sees, he ends up in a mysterious world beyond a strange door. There, Chibi-Og received a rainbow-colored feather from an unknown voice and was told to "save the broken world. The story is reminiscent of old tales and fairy tales, and the hand-drawn graphics are a perfect match, drawing the player in naturally.

Chibi-Ogg's basic actions are roughly twofold: moving and swinging his insect net. The net can be used in a variety of ways, such as to catch insects, cut flowers and grasses, attack enemies, activate gimmick switches, and catch fish. The setting in which it is both a tool and a weapon is very unique, and fits the warm and relaxed worldview.

In addition, as the story progresses, the little ogre also learns actions such as moving and lifting objects. The more he learns, the more he is able to do, and the more gimmicks he is able to solve, the more he is motivated to play.

One of the features of this title is the abundance of puzzles. While walking through maps and dungeons, little Og encounters puzzles everywhere.

Some puzzles involve activating switches and moving blocks up and down to create paths, pushing stones and dropping them into holes to create passages, navigating intricate mazes to reach a goal, and guessing what to do from clues given to the player. The puzzles are all very challenging and enjoyable.

Moreover, each puzzle is not unreasonably difficult or too easy, but has just the right level of difficulty to give you a sense of accomplishment when you solve it. On the other hand, the action elements, such as battles with enemies and bosses, are also well placed, so you can continue playing without getting bored.

The graphics, world view, quality action and puzzle elements, and many other aspects make this title very appealing, but in my opinion, the most important point is the "volume.

This title uses a quest system, and the story basically progresses by following and completing the main quests that appear on the screen, but there are also plenty of subquests to fulfill requests from NPC characters, so there is no shortage of side trips. The game is also characterized by its vastness, with more than 200 maps. The beginning of the game is a straight path, but once you get to a certain point, the scope of adventure and the things you can do will quickly expand, and the excitement will never let up.

Furthermore, there is an overwhelming element of collecting in this work. You can display the fish and insects you catch in a museum, learn to cook a variety of dishes, and so on.

Ogg and the Secret Forest" is a well-balanced fusion of action, puzzle and adventure elements with gentle, hand-drawn graphics and a mysterious, fantastical storyline. The game is carefully crafted down to the smallest detail, and it is a title that makes you want to play more and more. If you are interested in this title, please try it out and go on a big adventure with little Og.

2、Farming experience on a strange planet! Sci-fi farm simulation "Planet Settlement - Farland" set in outer space.


A farm simulation game that will keep you playing for hours on end. You may think it's time to quit, but you just can't help but think, "Just a little bit more! The "Planet Settlement - Farland" game introduced here is a new version of such a farm simulation game. This game is in Early Access at the time of writing, so please keep that in mind.

Planet Settlement - Farland" is a 2D farm simulation game with a low-down perspective. The first thing that catches the eye is the graphics, which are vividly colored dots reminiscent of retro games from the 90's, giving the game a nostalgic feel, but also a new sense of novelty. It is sure to appeal to those who love retro games.

The protagonist of this game is "you," the owner of a planet. Tired of your busy and stressful life in an overcrowded metropolis, and looking for a change in lifestyle, you come across a (dubious) offer to acquire an entire planet for a bargain price, almost free of charge. It turns out to be an old farming planet that has been abandoned in a corner of the galaxy for years. You thus acquire the planet, and with the help of a worn-out spaceship and an android for personal support, you are now living the slow life. ...... is the story of this game. This unique story combines the classic situation of a slow life in the countryside in a farm simulation game with an epic sci-fi setting in outer space, and it will thrill you.

The first thing to do after starting the game is to explore a desolate planet. The first thing to do after starting the game is to explore the desolate planet and collect resources such as wood and stones that are scattered all over the place. You can use an axe for wood, a sickle for grass, and so on. Many people may play farm simulation games because they like this silent and mindless work.

Once the land has been cleared to a certain extent, the next step is to cultivate the farm. The next step is to cultivate the soil with a mulch, plant seeds, water them with a watering can, and wait for them to grow. The crops are harvested and delivered to a special box to earn income. The tools have no durability value and can be used as long as you want, which is very stress-free. However, players have stamina, which decreases as they work, so work in moderation and sleep on the bed to recover.

Incidentally, the fact that many things are different from those on Earth, such as the trees being blue, the grass being purple, and being able to grow crops that you have never heard of, is an interesting point unique to this game, which is set in outer space.

So far, this is a relatively orthodox farm simulation, but there is one major feature that is unique to the space setting of this title. The first is the " spaceship. In this game, you can travel to other planets in the solar system on your spaceship and land there to collect resources, interact with the inhabitants, and purchase items at the store. The resources that can be caught on different planets will change as the planets change, so the game will stimulate your curiosity and make you want to visit different planets. Farm simulation games are often set in relatively small communities such as towns and villages, but this game is a revolutionary creation that allows players to move between planets, allowing them to enjoy a grand world view while playing a box garden game.

However, the use of spaceships is not unlimited. Fuel is required to travel to other planets, and the time required depends on the distance traveled. Fuel can be accumulated by putting collected resources such as coal and wood into boxes inside the spaceship and processing them. As for the time, since staying up late at night can cause fatigue, planetary travel must be planned with the time it takes to return home. Incidentally, there is a cot in the spaceship and you can sleep there, but the amount of stamina recovery is low, so you will want to sleep in your bed at home whenever possible. This system, which requires a lot of preparation and planning before space exploration, gives a strong sense of realistic adventure.

In addition to farm management and space exploration, there are many other things you can do, such as collecting animals and plants on each planet and upgrading your spaceship. In addition, as you progress through the game, you will discover the reason why the planet was sold for as good as free. As the game is still in Early Access, we can expect even more volume and quality improvements when it is officially released, "Planet Settlement - Farland. Whether you like simulations or adventures, we encourage you to give it a try.

3, Conquer the 53 Stages of the Tokaido in Sugoroku! The multi-compatible digital medal game "Kosen Pusher Friends San" that gives you the feel of an arcade game!


Do you like arcade medal games?　If you are a gamer with children, you may go to the arcade with your children during the summer vacation season.

This title, "Kosen Pusher Friends San," is a Japanese-style digital medal pusher game set in the Edo period. Akiba Research Institute previously introduced "Kosen Pusher Friends 2", and this title is a sequel to that, with various new elements added while maintaining the same playability.

The controls and rules are as simple and clear as in the previous title "2. The player moves the ejector to the left or right to launch old coins (medals), which are dropped by pushers on the stage to be collected.

Note that simply dropping old coins or items from the board does not mean that you have won them; you need to catch them with the box attached to the ejector. This playing experience is basically the same as in the previous and previous two games, simple and easy to play. In addition, although the text cannot fully convey the charm of this game, the realistic sound of old coins jingling and sparkling is also very pleasant and adds to the fun atmosphere.

The most important point of this work is, without a doubt, the " sugoroku " displayed in the upper half of the screen. The theme of the game is the 53 Stages of the Tokaido Highway, which is well-known in Ukiyoe by Utagawa Hiroshige and Tokaido Chujuhi-Kurige by Yaji and Kita. Depending on the squares where the pieces stop, various events will occur.

Starting from Nihonbashi in Edo, the goal is to reach Sanshino Ohashi, the last stop on the 53 Stages of the Tokaido Highway, and a reward is awarded when the player reaches the goal. I have the impression that many of the medal games in game arcades are popular because they feature a sugoroku system like the one in this game, and it is very appealing to be able to enjoy that kind of fun at home.

The backgammon squares are filled with a variety of events, such as a box full of old coins that rains down on you, or a basket house that you can use to advance to the next square. One of the most unique events is the store event when you stop at the inn square. This square opens an RPG-like store menu where players can spend their coins to purchase a variety of effects. If you make good use of them, such as by making several dice appear on the board or by increasing the jackpot, you can gain an advantage in backgammon and earn a lot of old coins. In addition to events, items may also appear along the way.

Whenever an item is acquired, it has the effect of increasing the dice roll by +1 or doubling the advance on the next dice roll, so it is important to make good use of these items as well. In addition, there are several types of battle mini-games in which you have to hit enemies with old coins to defeat them, and in general, I felt that the events unique to digital medal games kept me interested in playing.

And we mustn't forget about the multiplayer aspect of the "Friends" series.
This title supports online multiplayer for up to four players. The old coins and items that fall down are asynchronous with other players, but the old coins that players eject are synchronized, giving the impression that it is easier to earn old coins and items than in solo play. Especially in battle mini-games against enemies, multiplayer seems to be much easier to win. Since the only means of communication is a simple stamp rather than text chat, the hurdle to multiplayer play with someone you don't know is low and easy to enjoy.

Another feature of this series is that there is an enhancement element that improves abilities. In this title, there are two types of upgrades: one that uses old coins, and the other that consumes the "kodama" (a kind of Japanese jewelry) earned along the way and at the finish line. These include expanding boxes, which are receptacles for old coins and items, increasing the movement speed of your ship, enhancing bonuses for stopping at special squares, installing additional ejectors on your ship, and more. The more you play, the easier it gets to play, so it is inevitable that you will become addicted to the game and lose the urge to quit. The self-enhancement element also functions as a challenging element, and in this title, there are backgammon pieces that can be changed with gradient balls as a further challenging element, making this title even more enjoyable than the previous and second titles.

The jackpot generated by collecting koban (small coins) is a real brain juicer, and once you try it, you'll be addicted to it. The game requires no difficult controls and is reasonably priced at less than one coin, making it a good choice even for those who don't usually play games.

]]> Authentic Sanuki Udon in Akihabara? Don't think, just eat udon. Udon with 3 kinds of tempura for 1,000 yen! Akiba 1,000 yen lunch https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71335/ Fri, 23 Aug 2024 17:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71335/

When you come to Akihabara, you may have a hard time deciding where to have lunch.

To help you decide, here are some Akiba eats that I, Shun Gori, who always wander around Akihabara even when I have no need to go out for lunch, recommend.

Here are 26 1,000 yen lunches in Akihabara! From ramen to set menus! Cost-effective gourmet food that is easy on the wallet!

As Akibaites who like to spend money on their hobbies, we assume that the amount of money you can spend for lunch is within 1,000 yen, so this is the last time we have introduced menus that you can usually eat within 1,000 yen.

We hope you will continue to enjoy the Akihabara lunches we have introduced so far!

Akihabara has become a place where you can enjoy delicious foods from all over the world, such as ramen, curry, kebabs, Chinese food, and recently, Belgian frites, but come to think of it, I haven't eaten udon yet. ......

So this time, we visited "Don't Think, Eat Udon," a restaurant where you can eat authentic Sanuki Udon in Akihabara. I visited "Don't Think, Eat Udon", a restaurant where you can eat authentic Sanuki udon in Akihabara.

Don't think, eat udon. is located on Seibi-dori, about a five-minute walk from the Showa-dori exit of JR Akihabara Station, just across Showa-dori after exiting the station.

Don't think, eat udon. is a rented udon store that operates as "Okinawa Yushoku Chimu Dodon" at night. Therefore, the appearance of the restaurant is characterized by its Okinawan style.

Since it is a rented store, the signboard outside can be easily removed.

The signboard outside the store has been designed so that it can be easily removed. The sign is interesting in that it reads "Don't think, eat UDON," which is an English translation of the restaurant's name, "Don't think, eat UDON," perhaps with an awareness of inbound visitors.


The restaurant is quite spacious, with about 30 seats, including 10 tables and 3 seats at the counter. As mentioned above, the restaurant is a borrowed store from "Okinawa Yushoku Chimu Dodon," and the interior is decorated with posters and furnishings that evoke the image of Okinawa.

The restaurant is only open for lunch from 11:00 to 14:00. Therefore, there is no specific lunch menu, and the menu is simple: "Udon", "Udon of the Week", "Udon with Tempura", and "Tempura" as an individual item. Prices are also quite reasonable considering the Akihabara lunch market, and even if you eat a full meal, the price will not exceed 1,000 yen.

Ordering is done by QR system, which means that you order by reading the QR code placed on the table with your smart phone.

This time, I ordered the "Udon with 3 kinds of tempura," a special set that comes with 3 kinds of tempura for 200 yen if ordered separately, served cold!

The three kinds of tempura are chicken tempura, chikuwa tempura, and sweet potato tempura.

First, I took a slurp of the udon.

The noodles are very firm and thick, with a chewy and elastic texture that is very satisfying.

The broth is made from mackerel and sardine, and the noodles are not overpowered by the firmness of the broth.

The tempura is freshly fried and the batter is crispy. In addition, the tempura absorbs the soup well. You can enjoy the crispiness of the batter as it is, or you can soak it up and enjoy the juices.

The sweet potato tempura is made of thickly sliced sweet potato and deep fried to a crisp, giving it a sweet taste.

The chicken tempura is made of thick, juicy chicken meat that would otherwise be dry depending on how it is cooked.

The chicken flavor is soaked up in every bite.

The only seasoning used is shichimi (seven spices). It is very simple, but that is how confident they are in their flavor.

It is certainly satisfying to eat it as it is, and even if you want to change the flavor, the shichimi alone is enough to satisfy your taste buds.

So, this time we visited "Don't Think, Eat Udon," a place in Akihabara where you can enjoy authentic Sanuki udon. where you can enjoy authentic Sanuki udon in Akihabara.

The noodles were chewy, firm, and elastic, and the soup with bonito flakes was very tasty.

The tempura was freshly fried and the crispy batter soaked up all the broth, so I never got tired of eating it again and again.

I finished the six pieces of tempura in no time at all.

It is a pity that the restaurant is only open from 11:00 to 14:00, as it is a borrowed store, but I highly recommend that you go there when the timing is right. You will surely enjoy the charm of Akiba meshi, which is not only rich but also light and simple.

Hello, this is Kariyasu! This time, I would like to introduce and review the "1/24 Back to the Future Part I Time Machine" now on sale from Aoshima!


The time machine (DeLorean) invented by Dr. Emmett Brown (Doc) that appeared in the popular science fiction movie "Back to the Future" released in 1985 is now available as a kit from Aoshima in a completely new mold!

Check out the contents!

The number of parts is quite large for a car model, as the complex design is well reproduced. Rubber tires, plated parts, decals to reproduce instruments are included, as well as the antenna parts (selectable) that were provided to send the lightning current from the clock tower to the dimensional transfer device at the climax of the movie part 1. The radio and video camera used in the experiment on October 26, 1985 in the movie are also included as extra parts!

It's a great way for fans to recreate scenes from the play!

The glass parts as well as the flame effect parts that are generated during the time slip are also included as clear parts!

There are many small parts and the process is complicated. Read the assembly instructions carefully before starting production to confirm the order in which to assemble the parts.

25 colors of paint are required for faithful coloring. If it is difficult to prepare all the colors, you can make your own approximate colors by mixing paints. (e.g., mix blue and white to make your own sky blue)

And, special detail-up parts (metal parts, etched parts, and metal sticker sets), sold separately, are also now available! Although not required, these items are recommended if you want to create a more realistic finish.

Before making this kit

This kit is not intended for beginners and requires various things such as adhesives, paints, other shaping tools, and knowledge of model crafting. If this is your first time to try car modeling, we recommend that you start with an affordable kit such as Raku-Pla (Snap Kit), also available from Aoshima, to get a feel for the product before trying it out!

Let's start production!

First, I sprayed all parts with Kreos water-based black surfacer. You can spray it on after assembly, but spraying it on at the beginning will save a little time. The style of car modeling varies from modeler to modeler, so this is just for reference!

For cutting out parts, use God Hand's Blade One nippers, which are strong and sharp.

For gate processing, deburring and shaping work, we recommend God Hand's sponge files. Various thicknesses are available on the market, so use according to your preference!

Masking the body part. After this, the body color silver was carefully sprayed with an airbrush to avoid unevenness. Of course, if you don't have an airbrush, you can use a can sprayer!

Metal parts and etched parts need to be coated with metal primer before painting. Be careful not to accidentally forget to apply it and have the paint peel off after painting!

Except for the silver body parts, I used mainly water-based Farejo Color, which is perfect for brush painting, to paint the details in detail. Incidentally, parts and cords that are too detailed and have no painting instructions are painted with the color of your choice.

Decals were firmly adhered using Kreos Mark Setter and Mark Softener.

Painting details, as well as applying decals and smudging, is difficult to do after all the parts are assembled, so I recommend working on each block separately, such as the body, interior, and mechanical parts.

After painting and applying decals, I sprayed Kreos water-based Premium Clear (semi-glossy) with an airbrush to protect the paint film and prevent smudging. The photo shows the smearing with black enamel paint after drying. Now, all that is left to do is to combine the parts: ......

Completed!

The sharp form is cool! It takes a long time to make, but the sense of accomplishment upon completion is worth it.

The rear part of the body is the most complex and impressive part. The power supply unit, exhaust port, various cords and pipes, and the messiness of the body is unforgettable!

Antenna parts attached. Although the antenna is selectable between the normal state and the "normal" state, it can be removed using adhesive instead of gluing it on. This way, you can enjoy both sides, which we recommend!

The gull wing type door, the biggest attraction of the time machine, can be fixed in the open state!

The dimensional transfer device behind the seat and other mechanical parts are also included as separate parts, which is a nice touch.

The time circuit and gauges are reproduced with decals. If you want to make it even more realistic, you can add your own parts based on the driving scenes in the film!

This set of three accessories (radio, video camera, and alarm clock) will make any fan grin. If you are interested, check out the full-length version!

The flame effect parts were sprayed in clear orange and clear yellow with an airbrush to create a gradation.

Combined with the antenna parts, you can recreate the famous scene in the play! It will be fun to make a diorama with roads and power lines as well. ......

So, what do you think? It's so exciting to have a faithful reproduction of a machine that appeared in a movie, and to be able to keep it close at hand! Well, I'll see you again... ♪

]]> The Birth of Kitaro: The Mystery of GeGeGeGe will be screened again at theaters nationwide on October 4 (Friday)! The trailer for "The Story of Fear as Originally Envisioned by the Production Team" is now available! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71343/ Thu, 22 Aug 2024 19:07:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71343/
Watch Birth of Kitaro: The Mystery of GeGeGeGe on TV

The film "The Birth of Kitaro: The Mystery of Gegege Shinsei Version," with 327 cuts retaken and sound re-dubbed, will be screened again in theaters nationwide on Friday, October 4, 2024.

Gegege no Kitaro" is a national animation that has been loved for 55 years and has become a part of the culture. In 2023, to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Shigeru Mizuki's birth, "The Birth of Kitaro: The Mystery of GeGeGeGe," a film depicting the story of Kitaro's father and his friends, was born and became a big hit.


The film was directed by Gou Koga, who also directed "Gegege no Kitaro the Movie: Japan Explodes! directed by Go Koga, who also directed "Gegege no Kitaro the Movie: Japan Explodes!"; screenplay by Hiroyuki Yoshino, known for his work on the TV animation "Macross F"; and character design by Toruko Yatabe, assistant director of "Shin Evangelion the Movie.

The cast includes Toshihiko Seki, who once played the role of Oyaji the Elder in "Demon Slayer" and made all of Japan tremble, Hidenobu Kiuchi, who played Yushi Oshidari in the "Prince of Tennis" series, Miyuki Sawashiro, who played Kitaro in the TV anime "Gegege no Kitaro" (6th season), and Miyuki Yoshino, who played Oyaji the Elder in the "Gegege no Kitaro" series. and Masanori Nozawa who played Oyaji Me-tama, Toshio Furukawa as Nezumi, and Atsumi Tanazaki, Yumiko Kobayashi, Tetsu Shiratori, Nobuo Tobita, Kazuya Nakai, Yoko Sawaumi, Kazuhiro Yamaji, Yuko Minaguchi, Rie Kugimiya, Akira Ishida, Umeika Shoji, and Masaya Matsukaze as the voice casts of the "Gegege Kitaro" series. The film is scheduled to be released in November 2023.

When the film was released in November 2023, the encounter between Mizuki and Kitaro's father, who used to be the father of Kitaro, the sadness of their fate, and the power of the battle scenes attracted a great deal of attention, resulting in box-office revenues of 2.79 billion yen and a total attendance of 1.95 million people. In 2024, the film won the 47th Japan Academy Awards for Best Animated Feature Film, and its momentum was not limited to Japan, as it was also screened in Korea, Taiwan, and other countries.

The story of Kitaro's fathers has spread around the world, and now it will be screened again in theaters nationwide on October 4 (Fri.) as "The Birth of Kitaro: The Mystery of Gegege's True Life Version," with 327 cuts retaken and the sound re-dubbed to match. (Distributor: Toei / R15+)

The "Shinsei Version" is a retake of 327 cuts, with the sound re-dubbed to match.
The horror story that the production team originally envisioned is now on the screen!

In addition, a trailer built around the retaken cuts was also released!
The previous film received rave reviews for the overwhelming quality and power of the battle scenes and the adult horror visuals, but this time around, 327 cuts were retaken and the sound was re-dubbed, improving on the quality of the previously released version. Some of the retakes include cuts that revive the horror effects originally envisioned in the storyboards.

In the released footage, after the cut of the silhouette floating in the blood cherry blossoms, the message "Forbidden Abomination Again" appears. Mizuki talks to Kitaro's father through the bars of his prison cell, saying, "Let's uncover the mystery of the Tatsuga clan that is swirling in Wailukuura Village. The trailer depicts the story of these two, the mad bones that attack them, and the horrific fate that the Ryuga clan faces, in an R15+ version with more blood spatter and horror than the one that was released last year.

The poster visual used for last year's release has also been re-released with a new copy and title logo. The poster and flyers will be available at theaters nationwide that will be showing the film from today.

Toshihiko Seki, who played Kitaro's father, commented on the release of the Shinsei version, "The number of new retakes is astonishing. If you say, "This is the horror story that the production team had originally envisioned," I have no choice but to see it. Whether you are a fan of "The Birth of Kitaro" or you haven't seen it yet, please don't miss this opportunity! He commented joyfully.
Hidenobu Kiuchi, who plays Mizuki, commented, "This film was originally made for adults, but I myself am looking forward to seeing how the production team envisioned the story. I am very happy to see that the movie is still loved by everyone, as various events have been held since its release last year. I look forward to seeing you at the theater for the special edition of "The Birth of Kitaro: The Mystery of GeGeGeGe, Shinsei Version"! The comment from the director of the film, "I am very happy to hear that Kitaro is still loved by everyone.
Director Koga also commented, "We are very happy to receive support from so many people for this film, and now we are releasing it in theaters as the "Shinsei version," which is what we originally wanted to make. I promise you that "The Birth of Kitaro: Mystery of Gegege Shinsei Version" is not only related to the rating, but we have put a lot of effort into brushing up the images themselves. We are confident that the new version will be more beautiful than scary, and that the audience will be more deeply intoxicated and moved by the story. He is confident about the film's release.

Last year, "Ge Mystery" caused a frenzied "Ge Mystery" boom. The reimagined Kitaro will return as the "true form" of the story that the production team had originally envisioned, with Kitaro's fathers' passionate feelings for Kitaro touching the audience.

Full text of the comments

Toshihiko Seki (Kitaro's father)


Kitaro: The Birth of Kitaro, A GeGeGe Mystery" will be screened again? What on earth is going on? I was wondering, and to my surprise, I found out that it is going to be screened again under the title of "Shinsei Version".
I had heard that this was a different version with a different rating!　And if they say "the horror story that the production team had originally envisioned," then I had no choice but to see it.
And if they say, "This is the horror story that the producers originally envisioned," then there is no other choice but to see it. In the past, this film has been shown in various collaborations, such as events and product development, and has even broken out of its theatrical framework in different forms.
This time, we are proud to present the film in its entirety to you, the audience, and ask you about its appeal.
Whether you are a fan of "The Birth of Kitaro" or you have not seen it yet, please do not miss this opportunity!

Hidenobu Kiuchi (Mizuki)


At first, I heard from the director that he wanted to make a version of this film that was geared toward adults, but I never thought I would be able to see that version one day, and in a theater!
This film was released as a PG-12 film, and I myself am not looking forward to seeing it, as it will reveal how the production team envisioned the film.
I am very happy to see that the film is still loved by everyone and that various events have been held since its release last year.
I look forward to seeing you at the theater for the special edition of "The Birth of Kitaro: Mystery of GeGeGeGe, Shinsei Version!

Director Go Koga


It was exactly one year ago when we were tackling the new challenge of making Kitaro into a horror movie for adults, and we, the staff, were struggling and struggling to find out how far we could go in terms of expression.
We are very happy to announce that we have received the support of many customers for this film, and we have decided to release it in theaters as the "Shinsei version" as we originally wanted to make it.
Some may be concerned about the R15+ classification, but I promise you that "The Birth of Kitaro: A Gegege Mystery, Shinsei Version" is not only about the rating, but also about brushing up the images themselves. I am rather focusing on brushing up the images themselves. The "Mystery of GeGeGe" is not so much "scary" as it is "beautiful", and we are sure that you will be more deeply intoxicated and moved by the story.
Please come and see it in the theater! Please see it in the theater.

The main character is Max, a photography instructor at the prestigious Caledon College in northern Vermont. After witnessing the death of her best friend Saffy, she uses her suddenly acquired mysterious power to travel to parallel worlds to get to the bottom of the murder.
In the other world to which Max can travel, her best friend Saffy, who was supposed to have been killed, is still alive, and although the events that occur in the two worlds are different, Max's ability to connect the worlds allows her to achieve what she could not do in each world alone and get closer to the truth of the case.

As the story progresses, the player makes numerous choices through Max. Once a choice is made, it cannot be rewound in time and chosen again, so the decision must be made carefully. However, a choice that seems good now may not necessarily have a good outcome later. ......

]]> Kaori Maeda's 2nd photo book "Kaori of Love" will be released on 10/24 (Thu.) from Akita Shoten! It also includes her first swimsuit cut! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71307/ Thu, 22 Aug 2024 16:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71307/

Kaori Maeda, a voice actress and artist, will release her long-awaited second photo book "Kaori of Love" in October. This will be her second photo book after a three-year interval since her first photo book "Adult Kaori" was shot and released in 2022.

This collection focuses on Kaori Maeda's original charms of "beautiful looks and a friendly, bright personality," and was shot with the aim of creating a sense of pseudo-love with zero sense of distance.



Shot entirely in Okayama Prefecture, the film is a story about Maeda, who is said to be the "No. 1 voice actress you want to have as a girlfriend," and you, the reader, in a situation that makes you feel as if you are in a romantic movie. At a time when the good qualities of Japan are being reevaluated, this film is like a romance x road movie where you can rediscover Japan with Kaori Maeda through filming in the beautiful cityscapes, nature, and historic old houses of Okayama, Kurashiki, and Takahashi, where many hidden Japanese original landscapes (nature, buildings, and food) remain. The film is a romance x road movie.



You will be able to relive your summer vacation days with Kaori in the beautiful sea, spending time in the nostalgic Japanese landscape, and having drinks at night with her at ....... Swimming in the sea with her, drinking beer at a standing bar in midsummer, visiting stores at a fair in a shopping arcade, a date in Kurashiki at dusk in a yukata, taking a walk to your alma mater or drinking on the porch of your parents' house, etc. ......

The book also features Kaori Maeda in a swimsuit and nightwear for the first time, which are rarely seen in her regular activities, and is full of the charms of a more mature Kaori Maeda.



A limited edition and digital-only version of the book will also be available for purchase.

The long-awaited digital release of her 1st photo book "Adult Kaori" is scheduled for September 1 (Sun.) and will be available at e-book stores such as kindle and DMM.com.

Kaori Maeda Comment


What a surprise! I am pleased to announce the release of my long-awaited 2nd photo book! The title is "Kaori in Love.

The theme of the book is "Love Movie," and I hope that you, the viewer, will enjoy the scenery of Okayama and feel the thrill and excitement of love!

Going to the Seto Inland Sea, walking along the streets of Bikan Historical Quarter, having a drink together at a standing bar... I would be happy if you could imagine the story of this film with me.

Let's make it a wonderful photo book of you and me!

Akiba Research Institute's official poll project "Which voice actor is your favorite this season? The popularity vote for the male voice actor starring in the 2024 summer anime! The voting has now closed. Here are the results.

Click here to see the voting results.
The top 10 are as follows

No. 1 Yusho Kamimura... 877 votes
Majority absent (Saneatsu Narita)

2nd Kohei Amasaki...840 votes
Sister-in-law life (Yuta Asamura), Wistoria with the cane and sword (Will Serforto), Arya-san next door who sometimes blurts out in Russian (Masachika Kuze)

No. 3 Reigo Yamaguchi... 787 votes
Otherworldly Suicide Squad (Deadshot)

No. 4 Ryohei Kimura... 302 votes
Sengoku Yokyu Senma Chaos Hen (Shinsuke)

No.5 Takuya Sato...271 votes
Newly minted adventurer, trained to death by the strongest party, becomes invincible. (Rick Gladiator), Delico's Nursery (Dino Classico)

No. 6 Masaaki Underwater... 189 votes
Wistoria of the Staff and the Sword (Sion Alster), Goddess of the Cafe Terrace (2nd season) (Kasukabe Hayato)

No. 7 Kensho Ono... 144 votes
ATRI -My Dear Moments- (Ikaruga Natsuo)

No.8 Kengo Kawanishi... 138 votes
Wistoria of the Staff and the Sword (Ignor Lindor)

No. 9 Mamoru Miyano... 130 votes
Kinnikuman: Perfect Choujin Hajimehen (Kinnikuman)

No.10 Yoshimasa Hosoya...97 votes
ATRI -My Dear Moments- (Ryuji Nojima)


In this year's voting, in which 4376 votes were cast, the top vote-getter was Yusho Uemura. In "Majority Lost," Narita Saneatsu gives a fine performance as a truly royal protagonist who never gives up in the face of crisis. His straightforward voice and characterization seem to fit perfectly.


In second place was Kohei Amasaki, who was drawn by "Sister-in-law Life" Yuta Asamura, "Wistoria of the Staff and the Sword" Will Serfort, and "Sometimes blurts out in Russian, Arya-san next door" Masachika Kuze. He had been ranked high in the poll, but thanks to his call to listeners to participate in the poll on his radio program "Edison," in which he also serves as a DJ, his ranking jumped to second place. The direct appeal to the program listeners must have been very effective. Thank you very much for spreading the word about this project!


Third place went to Reigo Yamaguchi, who plays Deadshot, the leader of the "Otherworldly Suicide Squad. Mr. Yamaguchi's unique thick, austere voice beautifully portrayed the important character of the Suicide Squad's leader, the assassin. The appeal of this villain-like character, who has a sense of responsibility while at the same time giving a sense of badassery, is due in large part to his handsome voice.


In fourth place is Ryohei Kimura, who plays Shinsuke in "Sengoku Yohu: Senma Chao-hen." In the Winter 2023 poll, he was in sixth place for his role as Shinsuke in the first-cool "Sengoku Yohu," but in the second-cool episode, he moved up to fourth place. With the excitement of the anime, he may have gained more attention.


Takuya Sato, in fifth place, is a newbie adventurer who is trained to death by the strongest party and becomes invincible. In "Delico's Nursery," Takuya Sato plays a normal guy with some comical elements. In "Delico's Nursery," he plays a privileged father and an elder. The range of his characters is wide, even when it comes to elders. Fans will be happy to enjoy the extremes of comical and cool.


Masaaki Mizunaka, ranked 6th, is very impressive as the fiery "Wistoria of the staff and sword" Theon Ulster. Theon looks down on the main character, Will, but eventually comes to see him as a rival. Finally, he explodes with emotion and shouts, "Look at me! is arguably the best scene in this season's anime.


Seventh place went to Kensho Ono as Natsuo Ikaruga in "ATRI -My Dear Moments-. He gives a serious performance as the main character who lives with past trauma.


Eighth place went to Kengo Kawanishi, who plays Ignor Lindor in "Wistoria of the Staff and the Sword. He is a noble elf, and is also a character who is hard on the main character, Will. It seems that not only the main character but also the supporting characters and their casts are popular in this work.


In ninth place is Mamoru Miyano, who plays Kinnikuman in "Kinnikuman: Perfect Choujin Hajime Hen! His passionate acting and voice, which is as good as Akira Kamiya's in the previous Kinnikuman, make the work exciting.


And in tenth place is Yoshimasa Hosoya as Ryuji Nojima in "ATRI -My Dear Moments-. His low voice, which he prides himself on, beautifully expresses the blunt but gentle character that peeks out from time to time.

Introduction of the Metropolitan Highway Battle series

Metropolitan Highway Battle 01 (PlayStation2: July 24, 2003)

Metropolitan Highway Battle X (Xbox360: July 27, 2006 release)

With the Dreamcast "Metropolitan Highway Battle" released in 1999, the reproducibility of the courses was dramatically improved with the evolution of hardware performance.

Entergram announced that "Refine" for PlayStation4/Nintendo Switch/Windows PC will be released on December 19, 2024 (Thursday). In addition, pre-orders for the game are now being accepted at stores nationwide.

Refine" is a full remake of "Kono Aozora ni Yakusoku (Promise to the Blue Sky)," which was originally released for PC in 2006 and ported to PS2, PSP, PSVita, and other consoles.
The illustrations and BGM have been completely renewed, and new features such as map movement using dot pixels have been incorporated into the latest version of the game.

The visuals of the main heroine and event CG have been newly drawn by the original artist Nekonyan, and the 16:9 screen size is supported along with some renewed backgrounds.


In addition, the dot-pixel map movement used in this year's April Fool's Day project has been adopted in the main story as well. The new map allows users to freely walk around the school and Tsugumi's dormitory.

In addition, the opening movie of this work was released on the official Entergram Youtube channel at the same time the website was opened to the public. The theme song "allegretto~sora to kimi~" (vo. KOTOKO) remains unchanged, but the visuals have been newly drawn.



＜Story

The promise I made to you that day still lives on this island.

A remote island a little south of Honshu.
The main characters attend a school on a hilltop where they climb a series of stone steps from the foot of the hilly island to a hill from which they can see the town below and the ocean.
However, the number of students has been gradually declining since the factory of a large company, which had accounted for most of the island's industry, will be leaving the island next year.
On another hill on the island, there is a dormitory converted from the old school building of the school.
Due to the decrease in the number of students, only the hero and heroines are currently living there.
The dormitory is now home to only the hero and heroine. A transfer student who somehow came to the dormitory at this time of the year is also involved, and they spend their days slapstick and fun, even though they sometimes rebel against each other.





<Characters

Rinna Sawaki



A second-year student at Takamizuka Academy.
She is the latest newcomer to the Tsugumi dormitory.
For some reason, she does not want to get involved with other people and is at odds with the nosy members of the dormitory.

Although he is trying to hide it, his studies are on the verge of falling off the wagon.


Umi Hayama



A second-year student at the school.
Class 2-A committee member and secretary of the student council.
She and Wataru live next door to each other, and she still comes to wake him up in the mornings.

Naoko Asakura



A third-year student at the school.
Class 3-A committee member and student body president.
She is known as a typical honor student, but in fact she is a complete cat. She skillfully uses both her front and back faces to completely control the minds of teachers and students alike.
He is quick-witted and puts his ideas into action as soon as they occur to him.
He usually acts like a bully to his dorm mates, but when he senses malicious intent from the outside, he turns around and shows his thorough defense.


Miyaho Rokujo



A first-year student at the school.
Class 1-A committee member.
She is the granddaughter of the former head of the board of trustees and is a true lady.
However, due to her exciting life in the Tsugumi dormitory, she is in the process of breaking down her image as a "boxed-in" daughter.
She is good at explaining how to make someone's gags boring, which often leaves everyone in a state of shock. She is hopelessly clumsy with her hands and is not good at cooking or sports.


Shizuka Fujimura



A first-year student at the school.
She is a capricious girl who clings to the boat like a cat.

Saeri Kirishima



Saeri Kirishima is Wataru's homeroom teacher and the head of the Tsugumi dormitory.
She is a new teacher in her second year in the position, and is not very reliable.
She is affectionately called "Sae-chan" by the students.
She is caught between the students and the school, which causes her stress and makes her cry in front of everyone, or get drunk and throw a tantrum.
This has made her even more unreliable.
She argues with Naoko on a daily basis, but almost always loses.


Akane Mitamura



A second-year student at the school.
A transfer student and classmate.
She is a talkative, fast-talking, and friendly transfer student who transferred to the school one day before Rina.

Director Shoji Kawamori's comment has arrived!

Director: Shoji Kawamori
The 4K remastering of "Macross: Ai omoeme narimasuka.
After 40 years, I am finally able to deliver the images I imagined at the time.
With this 4K remastering, I was surprised that scenes that I felt were out of focus could be brought into focus so precisely.
The tonal gradations in dark scenes are also sharper! The details became more visible and the sense of realism was enhanced.
Looking back on that time, place, and age, I realize that we could not have created something that we did without the members of the team. I hope that you will experience the feeling of deculturation as if you were traveling through the vastness of the super-time-space universe with Macross!

]]> Report on "Card Shop magi Akihabara", a TCG specialty store for collectors! From cards costing over 10 million yen to cards for beginners, you can get the cards you want here! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71317/ Wed, 21 Aug 2024 21:11:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71317/

The popularity of trading card games (TCG) continues to grow. It is no exaggeration to say that the largest number of stores in Akihabara today specialize in TCGs.

Among them is "Card Shop magi Akihabara," which claims to be a TCG store for collectors. It is a sister store of "magipoke Akihabara Ekimae Store," which we reported on last December, and is a popular store located in a building along Yasukuni-dori, the main street of Akihabara.

⇒Please refer to the following page for more information!

Report on "magipoke Akihabara Ekimae Store," a Pokémon specialty store! One minute walk from Akihabara Station! The store offers a wide selection of products and services that cater to everyone from masters to beginners!

During the summer vacation, many TCG players of all ages and both men and women visited "Card Shop magi Akihabara" to learn more about the store's charms.

The phrase "quite inexpensive. Card Shop magi Akihabara is located on the fifth floor of the 26th Higashi Building, which also houses the impressive "IOSYS Akiba Chuodori Store.

The entrance to the store is right in front of you as you take the stairs or elevator up to the 5th floor!

Inside the store, the white walls create a clean and luxurious atmosphere.

The store floor is L-shaped, and near the entrance is a showcase displaying super high-value TCGs! According to the store staff, "TCG stores are oriented in several directions, such as stores for players who want to win games and stores for collectors.

The store is indeed a display of several super high pre-priced cards that are priced over 10 million yen. ......

Even cards in the several million yen class seem commonplace ....... What a full assortment......!

On the other hand, "blocks for play" containing several hundred cards are also sold at a reasonable price, so beginners to TCGs can use them to enrich their decks.

Since we were in the middle of summer vacation, many elementary school-aged kids were visiting the store with their parents. For these young TCG players, the store sells Oripa (original packs), which allow them to purchase cards at low prices.

I was impressed by the store's hospitality in offering a wide selection of cards to its wide range of customers.

The store carries the following titles: "Pokemon Card Game," "Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters," "One Piece Card Game," "Weiss Schwartz," "Duel Masters," "Dragon Ball Card Game," "Union Arena," "Magic the Gathering Lycee Overture.

The store carries a wide range of mainstream TCGs, so if you are an active TCG player, you are sure to find a card that interests you.

Another attraction of the store, according to the staff, is that they sell cards from regular customers on consignment. The prices of consignment items are set in comparison to the store's selling price, but the consignor makes the final decision. Therefore, there may be cards that are possibly more affordable than the store's lineup. ...... It is also possible that there may be rare cards on display that are not in the store's lineup! Check out the consignment items when you visit the store.

Also, if you look around the store, you will find autographs of famous players, YouTubers, and voice actors on display. This is probably why the store is so well known in the industry.

In addition, the store sells overseas versions of TCGs and offers a variety of Oripa and other events, giving the impression that the act of purchasing a TCG itself is a fun activity to be enjoyed.

As mentioned at the beginning of this report, the store is a collector's store, so they do not have a space for competitive games. Those who want to enjoy playing games with TCGs purchased at this store should visit the sister stores "magipoke Akihabara Ekimae Store" and "magi Akihabara Radio Kaikan Store". You may encounter not only exciting card battles but also rare cards!

The human enthusiasm that continues from "Hyakuemu" is always latent in Yutaka Uo's manga. When it is combined with the theme, it becomes explosive and interesting. Chi. I thought about the similarities between that and what I want to create now at Yorshka while reading the script," said Yorshka, who is in love with Uoyo's work.

I am honored to be involved in the visualization of this wonderful original work," she commented joyfully. Aporia is a philosophical word meaning an unanswered question or a puzzle. I wrote the title of the ending song and the title of the song itself. He also revealed the title of the ending song and the feelings that went into it.

Jorushka's comment

1. How did you feel when you read the original story and script?
I like this manga very much. The human heat that continues from "Hyakuemu" is always latent in Mr. Uoyo's manga. The human heat that continues from the original is always latent in his manga, and when it is combined with the theme, it becomes explosive and interesting. Chi. is a work that embodies the passion for "knowing," so as I read the script, I thought about the commonalities between that and what I wanted to create now at Yorshka.


2. Thoughts on the ending theme
Aporia is a philosophical word meaning a question without an answer or a puzzle. I wrote the theme by comparing the heart's desire to know the unknowable to aporia.
The balloon in the lyrics is a metaphor for the desire for knowledge that cannot be reproduced. The balloon leaves the surface of the earth and climbs higher and higher. When you look down from inside the balloon, you see a different view than when you were on the surface of the earth: the ocean, where schools of fish are glowing white. That is the kind of song.
My interpretation of "Chi. is "knowledge.

3. any message to your fans
I am honored to have been involved in the filming of this wonderful original work. I look forward to working with you.

In this popular series, Sekai, a performer in the popular dance and vocal group EXILE/FANTASTICS who professes to be an anime fan, selects three recommended anime from each anime season!

This time, as the final installment, we will select two anime from the spring season from April to June 2024. For the final installment, we asked Mr. Sekai to introduce his favorite anime that he will never forget. What is the last anime that Mr. Sekai chose as his recommendation?

EXILE/FANTASTICS World talks about the world of anime! Part 6



Kaiyodo, Otome and Kamikaze


Here comes the work of Saikai!

This work was a super-anticipated anime adaptation! As an occult lover, this is the best anime for me!

The story is about "Ren Kakano" who works at a bookstore, "Violet Ogawa" who aspires to be a novelist, and "Otome" who is Kakano's younger sister, and they get involved in various kinds of weirdness.

いやーーーーーー……、マジで最高でした。

The original manga was just so interesting, and it was really great to see Violetko in action in the anime.

The director is that Tomomitsu Mochizuki (Note: His representative works include "Dag-on" and "Umi ga Kikoeru")! This is awesome. The direction of the film has some very scary scenes, but at the core of the story, the film is about the deep, deep psychology and karma of human beings. Although I think it is categorized as a horror film, it is very easy to watch and at the same time, it is very harrowing, because the basis of the story is often hidden in our daily lives.

And as I've written many times, Violet was very cute. As for Ai Fayrouz's performance, I can only say, "As expected! I can only say one word about Ms. Ai's performance.

In the first episode, Violet receives a book as a birthday present from the manager of a bookstore, but the book is actually a spell book. As a lover of the occult, I would think that this book should never be read aloud, but sure enough, Violet read it aloud. At that moment, you become the body of a child. This performance by Ai Fayrouz, who plays the role of Violet-san as a child, is too good to be true. It is a must-see: ！！！！

Also, this situation that at first glance seems to be rejuvenating but actually is not. The performance of Mr. Daiki Yamashita, who plays Ren Kakano, who talks about the reason for this as if he is preaching the truth, was also very wonderful.

This film is not only scary, but also has many comical scenes and dialogues, but the gap between them and the horror makes them more and more fascinating. I was reminded of this after watching the anime that this is all due to the presence of Ren Kakano.

The first episode is about Violet Ogawa and Ren Kakeno's encounter with the mysterious, but we don't know who Ren Kakeno is or why he knows so much about the mysterious. However, he is not a free spirit. It was great that we could see that at a tremendous pace.

And then all of a sudden, "Kisaragi Station" comes up, which is familiar to occult lovers! And, no way, Masako Nozawa's voice !!!!!!! I thought I was beaten by this. I didn't expect to see Masako Nozawa's voice here: !!!! She understands the hearts of fans too well: !!!!

It was great.

That's where the first episode ends, but if you don't know the original story, you'll want to watch the second episode right away. I too had read the manga and knew what was coming next, but I couldn't wait for the weekly broadcast.

The title of the second episode is "Schoolhouse, Drool, and Danchizuma. ...... even the way you titled it is the best. !!!!! It's very wonderful.

In the second episode, we suddenly see Violet's outrageous outfit. It is a real eye-opener to see this in anime. In this episode, Violet-san becomes fully involved in the mysterious. She goes undercover at an all-girls school where strange things happen, and to her surprise, she becomes one with the curse. Even without a book, the curse allows her to change her body at will. Unlike the original manga, this is a good arrangement that moves along at a brisk pace.

By the way, this work really has a good theatrical accompaniment: !!!!!!!!!!!

I really want to shake hands with Ms. Koha Konishi and Mr. Yukio Kondo, who were in charge of the accompaniment. These two are the same people who worked on "Elfen Lied". They are really good at expressing a sense of atmosphere, life, and eeriness.

And the OP and ED themes are cool, too. !!!!!! The music has a mysterious and bewitching atmosphere, and it is truly suitable for the night.

I've written a lot about it, but if you like the occult, this is a must-see! Even if you don't like a little bit scary, this is a must-see! Because it is not only scary! There are also many funny scenes!

And the last episode of the anime is different from the original story, so even if you are a fan of the original story, you must watch it. Please watch it!

!" mark sign frequently, are you also ......?

Thank you very much!

Blue Archive The Animation

I think this was another great animation adaptation! It is based on the smartphone app game "Blue Archive - Blue Archive". For me, who had originally played the game, this was one of the works I had been waiting for since the news of the announcement of the anime adaptation last year.

I think it's quite amazing that the anime was aired 3 years after the service was launched in 2021. No, it's just plain awesome. !!!!!!

The story takes place in a city called "Kivotos," where thousands of schools are gathered. It is a very futuristic city, with tanks and combat helicopters in the schools and bullets sold in convenience stores. The city is very futuristic, with tanks and battle helicopters in the schools and bullets sold in the convenience stores, but there are also areas where the environment is changing rapidly due to certain events. It also resembles many other cities that actually exist. Every time I go there, I think "What is the world like here?

The inhabitants of this world are all strong to the point of being bizarre. If they are shot a little, it only hurts a little, so if something happens, it immediately develops into a gunfight.

The main character, "Sensei," whose true identity is not revealed, usually dies if he is shot. However, the teacher has outstanding command skills, so he lives in this world while skillfully directing all of his students.

The setting is a bit of a mess, but it's a great game with cute students and a teacher.

The anime version is a little different from the game in the way it progresses, and if you are playing the game, you may be thinking "What? If you have played the game, you may be thinking "What? Of course, there are also some anioli scenes, so those who started with the anime can also enjoy this work very much.

The main character of this work, "Sensei," is a visitor to "Abydos High School" in the desert area of Kivotos. Like in the game, he is a mysterious figure from the "Shahre," the Federal Student Investigation Department established by the president of the "Federal Student Association" that oversees Kivotos, but he also plays a very active role in the anime. In fact, no official visuals were released for the game, so I finally found out what he looks like in the anime version.

His personality is just like that of a respectable adult, a responsible gentleman with a very soft personality. However, there is also a perverted gentleman who is so perverted that when Celica Kuromi's tsundere tsun is triggered in the second episode, he tries to face her head-on and does something akin to stalking her.

No, he is a very nice teacher, really. He acts out of his proper concern for Celica. When Celica is kidnapped later on, he rescues her in a very cool manner.

In addition, the teacher is basically unable to fight, so he participates in the battle by commanding his students, and his appearance is really cool!

There are many highlights from the beginning of this work.

In the third episode, the outlaw group "Handyman 68" appears, and again, they all have very good characters. The central character and president, Al-chan, is a good friend of mine in the game. He is strong, but somehow, or rather, he is almost always out of it, and he is cute.

In the fourth episode, the teacher is on the run for a student who is robbing a bank!

Yes!!! It's a bank robbery: !!!!!! Because Abydos has a shitload of debt! The amount is roughly over 900 million!!!!

Due to environmental changes caused by a sandstorm decades ago, most of the students have disappeared from Advis. The only students present now are the five students in the play.

They try to return the school to the way it was before, but they come to the conclusion that the only way to pay off the debt is to rob a bank! They come to the conclusion that the only way to pay back the debt is to rob the bank! They all have broken ethics. !!!!

But!!! They are really good kids and they know what is right and what is wrong!

It's just that anything goes!!!!

And in episode 5, the real enemy is revealed. In fact, the development of ...... reveals the main theme of the film. The basic theme is the battle between children and adults.

Although "Blue Aka" is attractive because it is heartwarming and features many cute children, it actually deals with heavy themes and is deeply concerned with the conflict between characters.

The characters are cheerful and the gags are funny, so sometimes we forget that the story is quite heavy. I hope you will watch it and see for yourself.

Incidentally, Hina, the chairperson of the Disciplinary Committee of Gehenna Academy, also appears in the second half of the film, and I was delighted to see her.

It's really cool, so please check it out: !!!! If you are interested in "Blue Aka" after watching the anime, please try the game as well!

Thank you very much!

Fate Series

As this is the last episode, I would like to talk about my best anime. It is very, very, very hard for me to pick one out of all the anime out there, but I think it is impossible not to talk about the "Fate series" (......).

I have always loved the stories, the emotions of the characters, the masculine, muddy, outlaw atmosphere, action, battles, special moves, and the loveliness of the heroines, but when I first encountered the "Fate" series, I still vividly remember thinking, "I have encountered an extraordinary work. I still vividly remember that when I first encountered "Fate," I thought to myself, "This is an extraordinary work of art.

Especially, the original "Stay Night" series was a real hit with me, from the depth and gravity of the story to the depth of the game itself. I had already played the game itself, but I will never forget all the memories, including the excitement I felt when I saw this work in the anime and heard the voices of the characters.

In the "Fate" series, seven masters summon seven Servants, also known as "Heroic Spirits," to battle over the "Holy Grail," a vessel of desire that can grant any wish. The basic storyline of the series is that the seven masters battle together with their Servants. First of all, the battle royale format had me thinking, "Oh, no! I love it! I love it! I was immediately attracted to the game.

And among the many Heroic Spirits, Saber of "Stay Night" is incredibly cute. I thought, "Oh my God, I love her! and then I saw the heroine, Sakura Magiri, and she became my favorite.

There are three stories in "Stay Night," but I especially like "Heaven's Feel," in which Sakura is the main character. What is the Holy Grail War? What is the Holy Grail in the first place?

It is also the story of the main characters, Shiro Emiya and Sakura Magiri, and the important character, Ilyasphiel von Einzbern. The story, the action, everything about it was perfect. I can't talk too much about the details because it would be a spoiler, but what I can say is that it's really all good!!!

Especially "that" scene between Saber and Rider! This route is seriously badass. I am constantly attacked by my love for it.

Emiya Shirou's and Magiri Sakura's sentiments are also tremendous. It was

Heaven's Feel" has also been made into a movie, but if you want to watch it, watch "Stay Night" first, then "Unlimited Blade Works", and then watch it.

The "Fate series" will soon celebrate the 20th anniversary of the first anime broadcast, and TYPE-MOON, the creator of the original work, will celebrate its 20th year of commercial debut in 2024, and as I get older, I feel that its name is spreading to more and more people.

As a dancer, I used to find it difficult at first to communicate with people other than those who liked manga, anime, and video games, which used to stand in the exact opposite position (from the dance scene), and I often wondered who I could talk to about this. However, in the past few years, the number of people who have heard of TYPE-MOON is increasing, and it is amazing to see the number of people who can talk to each other, and at the same time, I feel the weight of history!

I feel that this is because the number of people who have a deep love for the works created by TYPE-MOON and for TYPE-MOON itself is increasing.

I can't tell you how happy I am that these works have fans not only in Japan but all over the world, expanding the world of anime and conveying the excellence of Japanese anime to a variety of people. ...... When I dance and talk with people from other countries, we quickly become friends when we talk about anime. It makes us both happy when we can communicate in a common language, such as the names of anime characters and techniques. I think the reason I continue to like anime is because of TYPE-MOON's works.

]]> Popular comic "One Dance" serialized in "Afternoon" will be adapted into a TV anime in 2025! ＜A coming-of-age story of street dance and love! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71286/ Wed, 21 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71286/

The popular comic "One Dance" serialized in Kodansha's monthly comic magazine "Afternoon" will be adapted into a TV anime in 2025.

The original comic "One Dance" is a popular work that has sold over 900,000 copies. A high school student with stuttering disorder, Kotani Hanaki, who is unable to express his feelings well, is attracted to his classmate, Wanda Hikari, who is devoted to dancing without worrying about being seen, and challenges himself to express himself "freestyle" dancing without words. The manga is a coming-of-age manga that challenges the viewer to express themselves in a "freestyle" dance that requires no words. In addition to its daring and powerful dance scenes, the manga is also a heartwarming story of sensitive human relationships and sweet and sour romance. It won the North American manga award "You Should Read This Manga 2023" as "a work that should be made into an anime. The long-awaited animated version has now been realized.


Breakin", a dance genre that also appears in the film, was recently adopted as a new sport at the Paris Olympics, where the Japanese representative, Ami Yuasa (AMI), won a gold medal. With street dance gaining more and more attention, the animated version of this work is expected to draw great expectations.

The TV animation "One Dance" is produced by "Madhouse," a long-established major animation studio that has garnered the support of animation fans of all ages, and "Cyclone Graphics," which specializes in digital animation using VFX and CG, and is also in charge of choreography for many famous artists such as BTS. In addition, the project will be produced by world-renowned dancer RIEHATA, who is also in charge of choreography for BTS and many other famous artists, as a dance producer, to create an unprecedented and authentic dance animation.

In addition, a congratulatory illustration and comment from the original author, Mr. Coffee, have arrived to commemorate the anime adaptation. The illustration features two dynamic shots of Hanaki Kotani and Mitsuri Wanda, and the stylish yellow-based design is a cool finish that is typical of "One Dance".

Original author: Coffee's comment


Manga does not make sounds or move.

Instead, it has another advantage that actual dance and music do not.

It allows the reader to supplement the movements and sounds in his or her imagination.

In some cases, this may be more moving than actually watching or listening to the work.

In the visualization of the film, there will be a certain amount of actual movement and sound.

If we try to reproduce a realistic and true-to-life appearance, I feel that the significance of visualizing a manga would be lost, so I would be very happy if you could play with experimentation and improvisation, and create images that I had never imagined.

I would be very happy if you could create images that I had never imagined.

*Original text

The official SNS and official website opened today. On the official X, a campaign to ask questions to Dr. Coffee will be held in commemoration of the anime adaptation. Also, tomorrow, August 22, volume 13 of "One Dance" will be released. In addition, "One Dance" will be on the cover of the October issue of "Afternoon," which will go on sale the following day, August 23. Keep your eyes on "One Dance" as it continues to make great strides!

]]> Review of the epic action RPG "Black Myth: Wukong" from China! In a world based on "Journey to the West," players can enjoy adventures in a variety of fields and exhilarating action using ruyibo and jutsu! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71287/ Tue, 20 Aug 2024 23:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71287/

Black Myth: Wukong" ("Black Myth") was just released for PS5 and PC on August 20, 2024. This is an action RPG based on the work "Journey to the West," one of the "Four Odd Books" among Chinese classical novels.

In this article, we will provide a review of the game after playing it.

Players embark on a journey to revive the Great Sage Qi Tian Sect as "Heavenly Deities.

The story of this title begins when Sun Wukong returns from his journey to Jersey and engages in an epic battle with Kenshojiro Makoto. After the fierce battle, Goku was defeated, and where he fell, only a large stone remained. Hundreds of years have passed since then, and the hero is ordered by his elders to embark on a journey in search of six sacred treasures that are said to be necessary for the revival of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

The protagonist of this work

This title uses the latest game engine, Unreal Engine 5. A game engine is a development platform for game production. This title, developed with the Unreal Engine 5, uses realistic graphics that are as realistic as the reality of the field. Every aspect of the game is precisely rendered, including the main character's equipment, the surface of the water that surges as enemies move, and the light that shines through the gaps in the bamboo forest, enhancing the player's sense of immersion.

The main story is divided into chapters, and each chapter features a variety of fields, including a mountain covered with bamboo groves and a desert-covered wilderness. The structure of each field is a single path, and the final route is limited, but instead, each field has various small and large detours, and there are bosses waiting in the back, gimmicks to get to hidden fields, and other discoveries to be made.

Since there is no element of falling to one's death in this work, it is nice to be able to look around for places where a single misstep could result in a fall, such as cliffs or pathways made of old trees. This is a welcome feature, as the realistic graphics make it difficult to distinguish where you can and cannot go in the "Black Myth". If I had a wish, I would have thought that a direction indicating a dead end would have made the search more convenient.

The text in the game is also well written. The information about the people you fight or encounter in the story is registered in a kind of pictorial book, but the amount of information is very large. The text also carefully describes the existence of the monsters and how they interacted with Sanzo and Son Goku on their journey to Jersey, making it a very rewarding read. It seems that a lot of effort has been put into the translation, and the dialogue in the story as well as the text in the illustrated book is in natural Japanese, making it very easy to read and understand. It is not only useful to know the background of the subject, but also those who are familiar with "Journey to the West" will enjoy it more.

If you follow the story in order, the chapters are only about 3 or 4 hours long, but if you are interested in collecting hidden gimmicks and items, and searching for materials used to forge weapons and equipment, you can easily spend several dozen hours before completing the main story.

The exhilarating combat system centered around a flexible and extendable club.

The main character, Tenmeito, uses a club as his weapon. The two main weapons are the "light club," which is less powerful but allows for quick, continuous attacks, and the "heavy club," which is more powerful but slower. There are no defenses in this game, and the player basically has to avoid the opponent's attacks.

The "konsei" is necessary for launching a heavy attack, and it gradually builds up when the player hits an attack or successfully evades an opponent's attack with a "shunmei," a move that is performed just in time to avoid the opponent's attack. If the heavy attack button is held down for a long time, the player can temporarily accumulate konsei in exchange for consuming stamina, or physical strength.

In addition, there are three styles of attacking with the club: the kekkon style, the tachikon style, and the stabbing style. The kikon style is highly maneuverable, as it allows the attacker to hold a blended stance while moving, while the rikkon style allows the attacker to use the tame (tame) technique to climb up on the edge of the extended club, avoiding enemy attacks from a high place and moving on to a specialized attack. In the stabbing club form, the extended club can be thrust at an enemy from a distance, allowing the attacker to attack from a safe distance.

At the beginning, you can only use the kata of kyakkon, but as you progress through the storyline, you will be able to use both the tachikon and stabbing kata, and you can switch between them at any time after learning them. It is a great combo to use the kata of kyakkon to move around at high speed and then respond to an opponent's attack with a special move from the tachikon or stabbing kata.

Along with the kon, the main weapon is the "jintsu," which is a kind of magic. There are four categories of jinchu, including kijutsu (magic). One type of kijutsu, josei-jutsu, can temporarily stop the movement of a locked-on opponent. It is a simple yet powerful jutsu that is very easy to use, such as striking a combo against a stopped enemy or using it on an enemy who is performing a powerful technique to buy time until he escapes.

In addition, in addition to "change," which transforms into some of the enemies that have been defeated so far and attacks them, there are "body techniques," including "vigor technique," which hardens the body to repel attacks from enemies, and "ki-gyo-jutsu," which allows one to become invisible and escape from enemies, plus "bifida," which allows one to split oneself and attack enemies at once, making the number of methods available during battle overwhelming. The number of methods available during battle is overwhelming. It is important to find the right moment to use it.

Among the divine powers, the most powerful is change. In the area we played this time, we were able to obtain "wolves" by defeating the boss, Hirochi, and they were extremely useful in the strategy. The ability to act as a boss for a certain period of time allows for a different kind of wide-range, high-powered techniques. It is a technique that can be used conveniently from the time of attack to the time of death.

The variety of techniques available, from physical attacks with the club to evasion to attacks with the divine sense, and the various options available to the player, make it very easy to fight both zakos and bosses. If it is a zako on the road, it can be quickly defeated by simply using light and heavy attacks.

The bosses have more HP than the zakos, and their attacks are more intense, so it is not a simple task. However, the final blow of the light attack combo and each type of heavy attack with the club have the effect of frightening the enemy, so if you can make a good decision, you can attack even the bosses unilaterally. Add to this the use of the jinjutsu to restrain the enemy and the shinjutsu (alter ego), which allows the player to alter his or her body and strike the enemy in the back, and you have a more aggressive tactic.

Although I played only about a dozen hours in this review, overall, the bosses are moderately strong for players who are familiar with 3D action games. If you are good at action games, you will probably be able to defeat them on your first try.


The game ends when the player's "life force," or HP, reaches zero, and the player is returned to the "shrine" that was last used. Shrines are like checkpoints located throughout the field. If you are defeated by a boss, there is no penalty for losing the battle, although you must go to the location of the opponent again after reviving yourself at the shrine. In this work, when the experience gained from defeating enemies reaches a certain level, a "Myougo value" is accumulated, which can be used to acquire skills as described later in this article.

Strengthening the main character through skill acquisition and equipment combinations using Myougo value

In "Black Mythology," there are not only ways for the protagonist to fight, but also a wealth of ways to strengthen him or her. Depending on the skills learned, the player can increase basic stats such as vitality, which is HP; hōryoku, which is used for divine power; and physical strength, which is needed for various actions such as attacks and movement, as well as learn new techniques for the three kata of the club.

As already mentioned, there is no penalty for players who are revived at the shrine after being killed by an enemy. Experience is not lost, so if there is an enemy that cannot be defeated, the player can push to increase the experience value and learn more and more skills. If you choose "Rest" at the shrine, you will regain your life force, legal power, and the number of times you can use the gourd, which is a recovery item, to the maximum, and almost all enemies will revive. In other words, it is easy to earn experience.

In addition, the head, torso, arms, and legs each have their own armor. In addition to increased defense, equipping a set of armor in the same category activates a set effect, which provides special enhancements. It is also interesting to customize the enhancements given to the main character by changing equipment, since there are various effects, such as an increase in attack power when running for a certain period of time.

Equipment is basically created by "equipment forging," which can be selected at the shrine, but most of the items required are plants that can be obtained by defeating enemies or collected along the way. The battles in this game are speedy, and plants are naturally found as you explore the area, so as long as you do your time fighting and exploring, you will never be short of materials.

Along with the epic storyline based on "Journey to the West," this title offers a wide variety of combat using the kon and shinto, and a variety of fields to explore, all presented in realistic graphics. Although the fact that each time you die, you have to revive at a shrine and try again gives the impression of difficulty, in reality there is no penalty for game over, so there is no need to worry that this will slow down the series of training, which involves gaining experience, acquiring Myougo value, and learning skills. It is also possible to use force to strengthen the main character all over again, and by mastering the powerful kamikaze, it is easier to gain an advantage in battles against the enemy. This is an action game that can be adjusted to a level of difficulty that is easy to play by developing the main character, even for players who are not very good at action games.

Although the "death game" style is tough, we can confidently recommend this title to those who want to play a challenging action game, as well as to those who are interested in action RPGs and games of a grand scale.

]]> Street Fighter 6" Year 2 additional character "Terry Bogarde" joins the game on Tuesday, September 24! First gameplay video! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71291/ Tue, 20 Aug 2024 19:19:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71291/

Terry Bogart, a well-known character from SNK's popular "Fatal Wolf Legend" fighting game series, will appear in "Street Fighter 6" on Tuesday, September 24, 2024.

The "Street Fighter" series, which celebrates its 35th anniversary in 2022, is a milestone in Capcom's fighting game lineup. Street Fighter 6" (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Steam) is a new numbered title befitting the anniversary and features new elements such as "World Tour," an immersive single-player story mode.

⇒ Street Fighter 6, the latest installment in the Street Fighter series, has sold more than one million copies worldwide! New features include "World Tour" and "Battle Hub.

Street Fighter 6" is gaining momentum as it enters Year 2, and "Terry Bogart," a well-known character from SNK's popular "FATAL FURY" fighting game series, will appear in "Street Fighter 6" on September 24 (Tue.).

This will be the first time in the history of the "Street Fighter" series that a guest character will appear in the game.

Terry first appeared in "FATAL FURY" (1991). He throws himself into the "King of Fighters" to take revenge on the person who sent his foster father to his death. Terry, who has always had a cheerful personality, interacts with many people and becomes a well-liked character.

Terry heads to "Metro City" in search of new adventures, and for the first time in 20 years, he encounters a familiar face.
Find out who this familiar face really is, what Terry does, and what kind of battles he will engage in by playing this title.

A wide variety of special moves and unique target combos.

Terry, who has seven special moves and a variety of target combos at his disposal, is well-balanced in both offense and defense, and is not a simple opponent to play against.

One of his target combos, "Passing Sway," is a series of attacks that hit in succession. It is a tricky move that makes the opponent unsure of his decision making, as it is derived from two different techniques: the "Jump Lariat Punch," which is a forward attack, and the "Jump NieR Tuck," which is a backward attack.

In addition, the characteristic moves known to all "Terry" fans are of course also implemented in this work.
The "Power Wave," a typical special move, slams the fist into the ground and releases a ground-crawling chi bullet, enabling the user to deter enemies at a distance. When activated with the Hadoken command + strong punch button, the technique is called "Round Wave. The movement and performance of the technique differs depending on the strength of the punch button, so enjoy the tactical play between you and your opponent.

Quick Burn" is a two-punch sequence that uses a fist covered in chi to deliver a hook followed by a downward punch; the second stage is effective in breaking the guard because the opponent cannot crouch guard.

The "Power Charge," which quickly rushes forward and strikes the opponent, the "Crash Shot," which is effective when the opponent is struggling against flying tools, and the "Rising Tackle," which spins and jumps up to use as an anti-air technique, are also techniques that can break out of a situation.

Terry's level 1 Super Art, "Buster Wolf," is a technique in which he lunges with a thrust and then releases an explosive air projectile. The attack comes out quickly and is invincible when activated, making it effective for cutting back.

The level 2 Super Art "Power Gazer" blasts the opponent with a spectacular explosion. When it hits an opponent, it consumes three Drive Gauge and can be derived into a "Twin Gazer. After the hit, the user can also expend another 1 Super Arts Gauge to unleash the "Triple Gazer," which is sure to inflict massive damage on the opponent.

The level 3 Super Art "Rising Fang" is a series of attacks using Terry's iconic technique. It launches the opponent into the air and launches a fist covered in chi, a high impact move befitting a level 3 performer.

[Outfit 2 and a new stage also appear at the same time.

Outfit 2's Terry, inspired by the brown jacket and jeans in "The Legend of Fatal Wolf: City of the Wolves," the latest installment in the "Fatal Wolf Legend" series, also makes an appearance. Maximize your bond with him on the World Tour or use Fighter Coins to get him.

A new stage is also available at the same time!　You may be able to find other SNK characters at Pao Pao Café No. 6, a familiar place from the "FATAL FURY" series!

Those who have the "Year 2 Ultimate Pass" will be able to use "Terry" and the new stages immediately on Tuesday, September 24th!
We hope you will join us on Tuesday, September 24th to enjoy the memorable entry of "Terry", the first guest character in the series!

The dog uses a flip-flop to appeal to the audience to "pick it up" and offers Wisteria a folding umbrella.
But this dog is more ...... than strange.
A little funny partner who appears in an otherwise ordinary day.
Eating, going out, and chatting(?) while feeling the four seasons together.... The "just a little bit more" is a warm and precious life of one person and one dog, who are probably very close friends.

Although the specific name of the disease will be withheld at the request of Atsuko Tanaka, it seems to me that Atsuko Tanaka was serious, dignified, and a little mischievous, including her year-long battle with the disease. I am very happy to have such a proud mother. She continued, "Last but not least, please do not forget the works that Atsuko Tanaka has been sincerely involved in, the characters that Atsuko Tanaka has loved, and the voice actress, Atsuko Tanaka. With love to my esteemed actress/voice actress and beloved mother," she wrote from her heart.

Atsuko Tanaka played Motoko Kusanagi in the "Ghost in the Shell" series, Caster in "Fate/stay night," Flamme in "Sougou no Freiren," Mary Sera in "Detective Conan," as well as Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Lopez, She won the Foreign Film and Drama Award at the 14th Voice Actor Awards in 20219.

We pray for his soul rest in peace.

]]> Interview with the developer of "SILENT HILL 2" at the Tokyo Media Premiere! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71300/ Tue, 20 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71300/

Konami Digital Entertainment held the "SILENT HILL 2" Tokyo Media Premiere on August 8, 2024, the world's fastest media preview of the remake of "SILENT HILL 2.

SILENT HILL 2" Play Report with Courageous Arrangements

In addition to the test play, a Q&A session with the development staff and an interview were also held on the day. The session was attended by Motoi Okamoto, producer of the "SILENT HILL" series from Konami Digital Entertainment, composer Akira Yamaoka and concept artist Nobutatsu Ito, creative director Mateusz Lenart of Bloober Team, the developer of the game, and lead producer Maciej Głomb, producer of "SILENT HILL 2. Mateusz Lenart, Creative Director of Bloober Team and Maciej Głomb, Lead Producer of Bloober Team, answered questions from the Japanese and international media.




--What are the main points of interest for you as a remake?


Lenart: This remake is the result of our love and devotion to the original, as well as a reworking of everything from the overall gameplay to the level design. From fighting creatures to exploration, we made the gameplay feel integrated.


--How was it working with Yamaoka-san and Ito-san, who were involved in the original game?


Okamoto: "SILENT HILL 2" has been loved for a very long time, and it is a title that fans have been considering for a long time. It was very good to be able to work with Yamaoka-san and Ito-san and delve deeper into the setting.



--I would like to ask Mr. Yamaoka and Mr. Ito, what was it like to work on "SILENT HILL 2" again?


Yamaoka: Rather than making music, I took on the remake from the point of questioning the way we lived 25 years ago. It would be easy to do it as it was, but I thought about what I had to do to make it acceptable as a new work to those who loved the work for 25 years and to new players. At that time, I couldn't afford a bass guitar, so I had to lower the tuning of my guitar and substitute it for the bass guitar. It was painful every day to question myself about how I had created the music for "SILENT HILL 2.



Ito: When I received the offer to participate in the remake, I was going to decline the offer because there was no need to tamper with the original "SILENT HILL 2" ....... Nevertheless, I decided to participate because I thought that if the remake was going ahead, I could have the core of "SILENT HILL 2" carried over and convey the impact of the original version to people who had never played it in a brushed-up version.



--Is there any new music in the remake of "SILENT HILL 2"?


YamaokaAll of the music has been rewritten. I am glad that the songs from the original version have been loved for 25 years, but as this is a new "SILENT HILL 2," we are creating songs with a new feel. There are about 9 hours (of music) in total, so we are trying to figure out how to make the soundtrack work.


--What were your reasons for choosing the Bloober Team?


Okamoto: When it came to rebooting "SILENT HILL 2," we had a number of studios from around the world in mind, but we wanted to choose a team that had a strong love for "SILENT HILL 2. I actually visited the Bloober Team and found them to be very loving, so we asked them to develop it for us.


--I heard that facial capture was used in this game. How did the Bloober Team, which specializes in first-person games, achieve such high quality, and what was your intention in changing the character design? What was your intention in changing the design of the characters?



Okamoto: We knew that Bloober Team did not have much experience with third-person games, but we left it to them because they are a passionate team and we thought they would give it a try, including outsourcing.


We were also prepared for the fact that the expectations from Lenart fans would be quite high. We discussed this with Mr. Okamoto and made no compromises, keeping in mind that the characters' expressions would have to be nothing but perfect.



Okamoto: The reason for the change in character design was that we used real actors for the facial capture in order to create a sense of reality. We made our selections based on their acting ability, so we believe that the charm of the characters can be expressed even if the modeling has been changed.


--In the development process, I heard that Okamoto-san and his team wanted to make changes from the original work, while the Bloober Team wanted to keep the original work as it was, so they fought over their opinions. Were there any memorable exchanges?


Okamoto: Yamaoka-san and Ito-san, who were involved in the original project, were highly creative, and they told us that they wanted to make the game as if it were a completely new work, even though it was a remake. Mr. Ito gave us the idea of completely changing the design of the creatures, and we also discussed the possibility of creating a new work from scratch.


Lenart: On the other hand, there was also the idea of not changing anything from the original work. There were many different opinions, but in the end we settled on the current form.


--Lenart: I was impressed by how the tempo at the beginning of the game has been improved.


Lenart: The beginning of the original version had a slow pace, and we certainly considered adding more action and excitement. In the end, we changed the pace of the film while keeping it as close to the original as possible. This was a difficult decision.



-I understand that you added a map in the remake, what was the reason for this?


LenartThis was to take full advantage of the change in camera perspective. By making the camera look over our shoulder, we had to reconfigure all the existing maps. We didn't change much of the outdoors from the original, but we did change the indoors from the original to make it more interesting to explore from the over-the-shoulder perspective.


--How did you evolve the CG expression of "SILENT HILL 2" from the original?


LenartAnyway, we had to put more effort into the fog effects. We also made sure not to add blood and gore that were not in the original version, just because the graphics had been improved. You tried to create an atmosphere that emphasized fog and other atmospheric elements.



Ito: Regarding the direction of the fog, I had to give a lot of orders. The point of "SILENT HILL 2" was to graphically express the emotional aspects of the city, not just the fog floating over it. I think the most successful part of the remake was the representation of this fog.


-The camera in the original version had a cinematic feel to it, but for a change, the camera in the remake is immersive. What were some of the challenges and highlights of the production?


LenartThe camera in the original version was fixed, so we could control what to show and what not to show. This time, since the player can move the camera freely, we couldn't use the same technique, but we adjusted the behavior of the creatures to give the same impression as in the original. For example, the mannequin hides when out of the player's view, giving the player a feeling of being close to the original. Also, in the original version, the game loaded every time a door was opened, but this time there is no such thing, and you can move seamlessly. We also reconstructed the map so that constant movement would lead to a sense of fear.



--Is there any difference between the original and the creatures that appear in the remake?


ITOH: There are differences in the game design of the combat between the original and the remake, so we made minor changes to the creatures. There are no completely new creatures, but there are creatures that reflect what we would have liked at the time. One of the fun parts of the game this time around may be to consider the differences from the original.


--LenartWhen you were fighting the creatures, what kind of scares were you trying to create in the action part of the game?


Lenart:We changed the camera's perspective from the original version, so some of the scares will change accordingly. Also, since the player has more freedom to move, it was necessary to change the design and behavior of the creatures as well. In the remake, the creatures have multiple behaviors and elements that can be linked to fear. For example, the Laing figures sometimes crawl on the ground and sometimes release a poisonous mist. We also made the mannequins jump at you, evade attacks, and move to hide. The instability of not knowing what the mannequin will do next is a frightening effect.



--I know that some people may be experiencing "SILENT HILL 2" for the first time with the remake, but were there any points that you paid attention to?


Okamoto: We introduced a difficulty level selection in the remake as well. You can set it separately for combat and puzzles, so that a wide range of players can enjoy the game. Changing the puzzle difficulty level changes the quality and quantity of hints that can be obtained from notes and the surrounding environment during exploration. This is a tradition of the "SILENT HILL" series, so the Bloober Team did their best. We have also included a Japanese voice-over, so those who are not used to playing games with subtitles will have no problem playing the game.


--What is the appeal of "SILENT HILL 2" to you?


LenartThis is a story that will be directly engraved in the player's mind. The atmosphere of the game is like no other.


GłombI think it's the characters. In general, the plot of a story can be forgotten over time, but the characters never fade away. This is especially true for the people in "Silent Hill 2," who are so well-developed that they seem to have existed in real life.


Okamoto:I think the fact that "SILENT HILL 2" does not have an easy happy ending is what makes it a special work.


YamaokaI think the "SILENT HILL" series, especially "SILENT HILL 2," is an experience. I think it is because the people who played the game back then felt that it was an experience rather than how they played it, and that is why it is still loved even after 25 years. The members of the team at that time wanted to create something original and unique, and I think it was that kind of multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction that made "SILENT HILL 2" an experience.


ItoAt the time, there were only a few designers on the team, including myself. We had to create "SILENT HILL 2," but with a set development period and budget, all we could do was discuss. We decided to focus on the story and the path players would take rather than the battle design. We then devised various ways to differentiate it from other games, but we had no idea that it would be a game that would be loved for 25 years.


--What does the future hold for the "SILENT HILL" franchise? What role will the remake of "SILENT HILL2" play in that?


Okamoto: "SILENT HILL 2" sets the standard for quality in the series. Through the remake of "SILENT HILL 2", we want to convey that KONAMI is confident in releasing this work and that we guarantee the quality of "SILENT HILL".


--Thank you very much.




A special collaboration menu of cakes and drinks was also served on the day of the event.


This is a case of "ALL-STAR'S PIZZA," a familiar item in the film. Inside the case was a novelty.

I was given the role of a superhuman nurse, and it was my first time to try my hand at dubbing!

I'm also waiting to hear what the fans think of it!
And for those Kinnikuman fans who have never seen Stardom, I hope you will come to the venue to see the show! I'll be waiting for you!
I would like to thank Mr. Yudetamago, the director, the staff, and all the Kinnikuman fans for giving SLK such a wonderful experience!

]]> The legendary psychological horror game is back! SILENT HILL 2" play impressions - a courageous reworking of the original with all the goodness of the original! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71269/ Sun, 18 Aug 2024 22:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71269/

The classic psychological horror game "SILENT HILL 2" is coming back to life after 23 years. Konami Digital Entertainment held the "SILENT HILL 2" Tokyo Media Premiere on August 8, 2024.

The event was the world's first opportunity for the media to try out "SILENT HILL 2," which is scheduled for release on October 8, 2024, and to experience the game's 4K graphics, enhanced expression, and more in-depth combat.

This is the photo spot at the event. Visitors were able to take pictures with familiar creatures.

SILENT HILL 2" is a horror game released on PS2 in 2001. The main character, James, receives a letter from his wife, Mary, who is supposed to have died of illness, telling him that she is waiting for him in "Silent Hill. Following this impossible letter, James goes to Silent Hill, but is attacked by strange creatures and ends up wandering around the city shrouded in a white fog. ...... The game is still talked about 23 years after its release as a "psychological horror" that evokes a sense of dread in the player's psyche.



SILENT HILL 2" will be remade. On this day, Motoi Okamoto, producer of the "SILENT HILL" series for Konami Digital Entertainment, composer Akira Yamaoka, concept artist Nobutatsu Ito, Mateusz Lenart, creative director of the Bloober Team, who is in charge of development, and lead producer Maciej Głomb. Regarding the new elements of the remake, Okamoto narrowed down the list to nine points: "a foggy city rendered in 4K," "emotional cutscenes," "three-dimensional sounds to stimulate the senses," "a highly immersive over-the-shoulder perspective," "tense combat," "additional creature elements," "expanded areas to explore," "solving puzzles that test your observational skills," and "multiple endings. He focused on nine points: "Addition of multiple endings.



The city of Silent Hill will be rendered in modern 4K graphics, making it more detailed. Cutscenes will use facial motion capture to incorporate the actors' performances, which will also express more subtle nuances. The sound system uses 3D sound, and the surrounding sounds stimulate the imagination. One of the most significant changes is that the viewpoint has been changed from looking down to a TPS game specification of looking over one's shoulder. The player's perspective is closer to James', which increases immersion and tension.



Combat with creatures has been restructured and is more tense with the addition of dodging "dodges". Creatures have been rearranged, and subspecies-like variations such as the "spider mannequin" have been added instead of new creatures. The area that can be explored has also been expanded, allowing for a solid exploration experience with actions such as jumping over window frames. The puzzle-solving has also been revised in a modern way, with some of the puzzles offering glimpses into past events. At the end of the story, several "brand new endings with new interpretations" have been added.



On this day, I was able to play the beginning of the remake "SILENT HILL 2" for about four hours. I got the impression that while the psychological terror is still there, various changes have been made to SILENT HILL 2 to make it a psychological horror game set in the year 2024.

The first thing that catches the eye is the change in graphics. The remake features 4K resolution graphics, which is much more expressive than the PS2 version. The close-ups of James' face show off his stubble, eloquently conveying his exhausted condition. The film also conveys the pain of having to face his past in Silent Hill, where he has memories of his late wife, after being exhausted by the unexplainable letter.



The depiction of Silent Hill is also more detailed with 4K graphics. The sight of a puddle or a garbage dump will send a shiver of disgust down your spine, and the dirty apartments and buildings are unpleasant in a way that will slowly drain your mental faculties. This is the "benefit" of the increased resolution. The fog that symbolizes Silent Hill is stupefyingly vague, yet sticky, and stirs the imagination in a negative direction.


The sight of the world surrounded by a blanket of white fog is ominous and at the same time has a certain supernatural beauty, and with each step you take there is a sense of dread that you will not be able to turn back, or that you will be separated from the mundane world. In other words, it recaptures the feeling of playing the original, which is very Silent Hill indeed. Rather than saying that the remake is better than the original, I think it would be more appropriate to say that the art style is different. The original Fog and Silent Hill have a style that is unique to the PS2.

The remake has a 4K image, which means that it is rendered in a more detailed style. The Bloober Team's respect for the original can be felt by the fact that they not only increased the resolution, but also changed the style of art while maintaining the intuition of "Silent Hill 2". For more details on the development of this project, please refer to another article (URL of the Q&A session article).




The camera that shows Silent Hill is clearly different from the original. The camera in the original was designed to look down on the surroundings from a certain distance, depending on the scene, but this time it was designed to look over James' shoulder, closer to his point of view. In other words, the unique sensation of being drawn into the foggy Silent Hill with a heightened sense of realism, while feeling uneasy, has been strengthened. The over-the-shoulder camera enhances the eeriness and gloom of the buildings, which are described in great detail, and fans of the film will be deeply moved by the thought of walking through Silent Hill.





One of the most significant points of change in the remake was in the fight against the creature. The creatures, such as the Laing figures with their upper bodies covered in rubber bags, the mannequins that look like they have two lower bodies joined together, and the creeping creepers, are terrifying just by being there, but now that the camera is looking over their shoulders, the horror and abnormality of them coming at you with intent to harm you is even more truly apparent. The camera's over-the-shoulder perspective makes the horror and abnormality of these creatures coming at us with intent more realistic. When a creature grapples with you and you get a close-up of it, even though I am used to playing horror games, I find myself repeatedly pressing buttons as if I were praying for the creature to leave me quickly, so you can understand how terrifying and powerful it is.



The combat system itself has also changed, and James can now dodge. This allows the player to invite an attack at mid-range and then dodge to avoid it, making the attack safer. Also, if you continue to hit the creature head-on, it will counterattack, but you can use dodge here to continue the attack further. Observing the creature's motion and avoiding it is the fundamental fun of action games. Once you get used to it, it feels good to fight by dodging and punching, then dodging and punching ....... The game also adds a TPS-like "aiming" action for shooting, and it is thrilling to take aim while being tossed around by the creature's quickness.

The creatures have a variety of action patterns, such as spitting poisonous mist, jumping on you, dodging your attacks, and moving to escape your sight (......), so you can never be too careful. As far as I was able to play, you can only get a bare minimum number of recovery items and bullets, so you have to think about saving them as you play (as in the original, the difficulty can be set separately for combat and puzzle solving. (As in the original, the difficulty can be set separately for combat and puzzle solving.) ) This is why the importance of dodging and the responsibility of being able to avoid attacks as long as you stay focused are so important and keep you on your toes.



The area from the observatory parking lot, through the graveyard, and into the fog-shrouded Silent Hill is similar to the original story, albeit with a change in tempo. The game is similar to the original in that James' writing on the map serves as guidance as the player proceeds to solve the riddle by moving back and forth through the city streets. By minimizing the use of markers and other game-like UI, the atmosphere of the horror game is not destroyed, and I was able to reconfirm how excellent the original concept was.

The wallpaper on the walls and items that can be picked up are marked with round icons, which can be changed as an option. This is good news for those who want to emphasize the original atmosphere. The increased density of play in the city was also impressive. In addition to new riddles to solve, items are now located in cars parked here and there and in store windows, and can be obtained by breaking the glass. Since you can never have enough items, it motivates you to explore the city. New actions, such as climbing over window frames and passing through gaps in walls, were also added, which added a nice touch.





The exploration of the apartment was also impressive: the detailed depiction in 4K resolution makes the apartment so extraordinary that it is already frightening just to walk through it. The original version had a loading screen when entering and exiting doors, but this is not the case in the remake, and the play tempo is much faster. The placement of the creatures is also different from the original, and together with the fact that recovery and bullets are more severe, the tension is never interrupted. The structure of the apartment and the answers to the riddles have also been changed from the original, so even those who played the PS2 version will be able to enjoy the game with a fresh mind. The feeling of wandering through an eerie world in search of answers to riddles while juggling limited resources is exactly the kind of horror game we remember from those days.




During the test play, there were several screams from the foreign media, which is a testament to how immersive the experience is. The four hours I had prepared for the game flew by, and when I finished playing I realized how tense I had been. This also meant that there was no letdown, and I felt that it was a quality experience for a horror game.

Playing the remake confirmed for me how good the original "Silent Hill 2" was, and how brave they were to change so many aspects of the game in the remake.

The fog that covers the city stimulates and unsettles the player's imagination. The main focus is on psychological terror rather than gore (splatter descriptions with bloodshed and loss of body parts), which differentiates the game from other horror games. The game's direction is also outstanding: when a creature approaches through the fog, white noise is emitted from James's radio. The game's function of communicating the approach of a threat is implemented in a way that reinforces the world view, an idea that is still surprising in 2024, 23 years after the game's release. Together with a profound storyline that allows for a variety of different perspectives, "Silent Hill 2" is a work that has the power to be passed down through the generations as a legend.



As "SILENT HILL 2" is such a work, there must have been an option to make it high-resolution as it is, but I also appreciate the various changes made in the remake. The most significant is the change in camera perspective, which makes the exploration, combat, and the fear of fog and creatures more visceral. Adding dodges to the combat must have been a courageous decision, but it has made the action even more thrilling.

We were only able to play about four hours from the start of the game, and the story of "Silent Hill 2" has only just begun. Even so, from what I was able to experience, I felt that this is a remake that allows you to enjoy the atmosphere and terror that is typical of "SILENT HILL 2".

The cast members' performances of the characters at the mercy of Kreis' words and actions are a must-see.

<Introduction
Let's become treasure hunters!
There is only one goal: to become the world's most powerful hero!
There was once a boy among the six who swore such an oath, but he was by far the least talented of the six.
One day, when he spoke of his frustration, his childhood friend said to him.
Kurai, you don't have any particular role to play, so you should be the leader."
Within a few years, the party "Strange Grief" formed by the overly talented monsters (i.e., his childhood friends) had made a name for itself in the Imperial Capital, and in no time at all, he was installed at the top of the party and was quickly elevated as the leader of the strongest party.
With the soaring expectations of those around him, his words and actions are always misunderstood, and the situation takes an unexpected turn....
This is a heroic tale filled with glory and suffering of Krei Andrich, the leader of the strongest party and the most famous clan master!

]]> Witch Watch" will be adapted into a TV anime in April 2025! Kenta Shinohara of "SKET DANCE" draws a bizarre magical comedy! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71274/ Sun, 18 Aug 2024 17:13:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71274/

Witch Watch," currently serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump, will be adapted into a TV anime in April 2025.

Witch Watch" is an outlandish magical comedy manga by Kenta Shinohara of "SKET DANCE" and "Astra Beyond," which is currently serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump" magazine. Nico, who is training to become a witch, moves in with her childhood friend Morihito Otogi, a high school student with demon powers. While Nico is thrilled to be reunited with her childhood friend, Morihito has a mission as a messenger to protect Nico from a prophesied disaster. Nico's magic causes unpredictable troubles, and a man and a woman living together at an early age... The days ahead are full of difficulties and wonders!

The teaser visual released with the decision to make a TV anime features Nico in the center, surrounded by Morihito, Kanshi, Keigo, and Otomu, all of whom seem to have been made smaller by Nico's magic. The teaser visual is reminiscent of the "Witch Watch" comic book design.

The teaser PV begins with an unpredictable scene in which Morichito is relaxing in his living room when Nico breaks a windowpane and barges in. The 50-second PV is full of excitement, thrills, and the bizarre, as we can easily imagine Morihito's difficult and mysterious days ahead as he gets caught up in the troubles caused by the clumsy witch Nico.


In addition, comments from the cast members who play the five announced main characters have also arrived.
Rina Kawaguchi, who plays Nico, said, "My voice will make the charm of the original Nico even cuter! I hope my voice can make her even cuter, funnier, and more attractive! I hope I can make her even cuter, funnier, and more attractive. I will do my best to spread the charm of "Witch Watch" to many more people! I will do my best! Ardent," says Ardenta Suzuki, who plays Morichito. "He is strong enough to protect Nico as an emissary, caring enough to mother her, well-informed about what he likes, and sharp-tongued, cool but actually expresses a lot of emotions. He seems cool, but in fact he has a lot of emotion. I hope I can express that "normal high school boy" who is a little calmer than others around him.

Kohei Amasaki (Kanshi), Kaito Ishikawa (Keigo), and Tomori Kusunoki (Otomu) commented on the appeal of the play, "It's really funny! When they joke around, I ask myself, "Is this really safe? The joking parts are so funny that you think, "Are the adults really going to get mad at me for this? The serious scenes are very moving. The tempo of the dialogue and the exchange of jokes and quips keeps the chain of laughter flowing. The comedy scenes as well as the love scenes make me feel so excited and my heart is pounding like a spring", "The fast-paced gags and the strange choice of words make me want to laugh out loud. There are also a lot of attractive characters full of personality, so you can enjoy every episode in a fresh way! He also said that this work has various charms such as comedy elements, tempo, and love elements that make you feel a little bit tender.


The official TV anime website ( https://WITCHWATCH-anime.com ) and official X ( @WITCHWATCHanime ) have also been released. Please look forward to more news on this outlandish magical comedy.

Teaser Visual Revealed

The visual features a large central figure of Nico, surrounded by Morichito, Kanshi, Keigo, and Otomu, all of whom seem to have been magically transformed into small figures by Nico's magic. The teaser visual is reminiscent of the "Witch Watch" comic book design.

Teaser PV release

The teaser PV begins with an unpredictable scene in which Morichito is relaxing in the living room of his house when Nico breaks the windowpane with a grand flourish and breaks in. The 50-second PV is full of excitement, thrills, and the bizarre, as we can easily imagine Morihito's difficult and mysterious days ahead as he gets caught up in the trouble that Nico, a clumsy witch, is causing.

Character and cast information revealed.

Rina Kawaguchi as Nico Wakatsuki, Yoshiaki Suzuki as Morihito Otogi, Kohei Amasaki as Kenshi Kazamatsuri, Kaito Ishikawa as Keigo Magami, and Tomori Kusunoki as Otomu Miyao.

Nico Wakatsuki cv.

A clumsy witch. She has a goofy personality and easily gets carried away when she is praised. Her dream is to become a great witch who can help others. She likes Morichito, but she still has a crush on him...?

<Rina Kawaguchi's comment
Q1: What do you find attractive about this work?
Each character is so unique and lovable, and they are all involved in comedy, battles, sometimes a little bit quiet, and sometimes a little bit in love...! I was amazed at how much fun I could have with just one work! I was surprised at how much fun I could have with just one work! And the gags created by Mr. Shinohara were so funny that I didn't think I would have to endure so much laughter during the postrecording. My stomach muscles became stronger. Thank you very much. I'm sorry, I'm limited by the number of words...! I have not talked enough at all! I would like to make one more point that I personally love! I love the cute and stylish cover of the book!

Q2: What is your enthusiasm for playing Nico Wakatsuki?
I am really, really happy to be able to play Nico. At the same time, I am very nervous! But the other senior cast members and the staff are very warm and welcoming. I love the atmosphere at the work site! I am also full of enthusiasm for the recording sessions every week. I hope my voice will bring out the charm of Nico in the original story and make her even cuter! I hope to make her even cuter, funnier, and more attractive with my voice! I hope I can make her even cuter, funnier and more attractive. And I hope to spread the charm of "Witch Watch" to many more people! I will do my best!

Q3: If you could use magic, what would be the first magic you would like to use?
I would like to be able to communicate with people I meet for the first time with a "no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.... I thought that I would be able to communicate with new people without hesitation, but after the magic wears off, I get angry with them... I think I can see a future where I sink to the bottom of the world. But, if someone else could work together with me, like the two in the original story...! If we work together, we won't be afraid, will we? I'm sure (laughs).

Morihito Otogi cv.

A descendant of demons, he is strong, serious and cool. He has been in trouble ever since Nico's arrival. He is a childhood friend of Nico and calls him "Moichan".

＜Comments by Yoshiaki Suzuki
Q1 What do you find attractive about this film?
Q1. Can you tell us what attracts you to this work? The sheer number of moves and the excellent choice of words is one of the elements that draws us in. The addition of magic, the power to change the impossible into the possible, adds even more depth to the story. Even though the story has such a strong comedic tone, it never loses sight of its main plot, which is the story of Nico's growth as a witch in training, and I feel that this is why we can enjoy both gags and serious stories.

Q2: What is your enthusiasm for playing the role of Morihito Otogi?
He is strong enough to protect Nico as a messenger and take care of him to the point of turning him into a mother, has a lot of information about the things he likes, and has a sharp sense of humor. I hope to express the "normal high school boy" who is a little calmer than others around him.
I am still a beginner in the art world, but like Morihito, I love vintage clothes. I'm going to ask Morihito to teach me a lot. I apologize in advance for my perforation of other people's lives.

Q3: If you could use your demon power, what would you like to use it for?
I am very curious about how many kilograms of dumbbells I can use to train my body just right. Also, I would like to crush rocks. I would like to smash rocks, smash rocks, smash mountains. I would like to smash something with my fists. I would like to crush something with my fists.

Kouji Kazamatsuri cv Kohei Amasaki

A tengu. Due to interspecies problems, he sees Morichito as an enemy. He is a very compassionate person and has good comic skills, so he can get along with anyone easily.


＜Comments by Kohei Amasaki
Q1: What do you find attractive about this work?
It's really funny! The funny parts are the parts that make you say, "Are you sure this is OK? Won't the adults get mad at us? The more serious scenes are very moving. It's like riding a roller coaster. After finishing the book, I feel refreshed and healthy. It is a work that makes you feel refreshed and healthy.

Q2: What is your enthusiasm for playing the role of Kazamatsuri Kenshi?
Kazamatsuri has many lines that are delivered with a lot of passion, so I try not to be too one-dimensional. It is difficult to decide whether to give priority to the nuances of the Kansai dialect or the tempo of the work. Also, I try not to laugh during recording because the other cast members' performances are so funny.

Q3: If you could use the power of a tengu, what kind of power would you like to use?
Basically, I am not good with wind. I am not good at wind because it ruins my hairstyle. Even if I have my hair done properly, the moment I go outside, it is blown away! I'm too stressed! It's too stressful! I hate it!
So when I learn to control it, I'll just let it be a nice gentle breeze around me.
He also has great comic powers, but if I could get those powers, I would like to be friends with everyone in Japan and increase the ratings of the movies I'm in.

Magami Keigo cv Kaito Ishikawa

A subculture asshole. He became friends with Morihito because Morihito "looks like him. He introduces various things that interest him on video distribution sites.

＜Comments by Kaito Ishikawa
Q1: What do you think is attractive about this work?
The fast-paced dialogue and the exchanges of jokes and jokes don't stop the chain of laughter.
Not only the comedic scenes, but also the love scenes make me feel excited and the excitement wells up like a wellspring.
I think this is the kind of romantic comedy I have always wanted to see.

Q2: What is your enthusiasm for playing the role of Caygo Magami?
I think he is basically a shy character, while playing around where he can.
I would like to play the role while being conscious of the fact that I want people to know what I think is good and the sensibility that makes it good, and that I go out of control.

Otomu Miyao cv Tomori Kusunoki

A witch from a good family. She can take the form of a cat with her transformation magic, but it dissolves when she falls asleep. She is trying to recruit Morichito as her messenger.

＜Comments by Tomori Kusunoki
Q1: What is the charm of this work?
The fast-paced gags and the strange choice of words make you want to say them out loud, and you can't help but laugh out loud with "Huh...". There are also many fascinating characters full of personality, so you can enjoy each episode in a fresh way!
You can get hooked on the show no matter which episode you watch first, and I think that's the charm of this work.

Q2: What is your enthusiasm for playing the role of Otome Miyao?
I fell in love with her at first sight because of her very cute visual, but I feel sorry for her because she sinks so vigorously on her own, and I think that is what makes her so lovable. I will do my best to express the ups and downs of her tension with a boldness that will make everything spin out of control!

On August 29, "Meat and Stir-Fried Vegetables Steak Lodge Akihabara Electric Town Exit Store" is scheduled to open at the former site of "Tachikyoku Yakiniku Jiromaru Akihabara Store," a yakiniku restaurant that closed on July 15, 2024.

This will be the second "Steak Lodge" in the Akihabara area, as there is already a "Steak Lodge Akihabara Store" on the 8th floor of Yodobashi Akiba. However, the name of the new restaurant is "Meat and Stir-Fried Vegetables," and a poster in the storefront reads "A restaurant specializing in meat and stir-fried vegetables has appeared," so the menu is expected to change slightly.

The outside of the restaurant has also been remodeled in a lodge-style (right photo), a complete change from the Japanese-style atmosphere of the previous restaurant (left photo).

Akihabara is often associated with ramen, curry, or meat. So it is nice to see a restaurant that serves not only meat, but also vegetables.

]]> Macross Plus" popular machine "YF-19" in battroid form is now available as a 1/72 scale kit! Voice actor Yasuyuki Tai challenges to create an example! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71279/ Fri, 16 Aug 2024 18:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71279/

When you are a working adult, you tend to have a lot of plastic models piled up in your busy life. ...... In this series, Yasuyuki Tai, a voice actor who loves robots and plastic models, takes on the challenge of building plastic models on your behalf!

The concept is "Even busy working people can make it this far on weekends and vacations! The only two rules of this article are that the model must be finished as an unassembled model and that you can spend only one or two days to build it! Read this series, and you will surely find the plastic model you want to build.

Taiyuki's Weekend Plastic Model Vol. 97 1/72 scale YF-19 Battroid "Macross Plus

Hasegawa, a plastic model manufacturer famous for its airplane models, has spawned numerous kits after encountering "Macross.

From Hasegawa, the very popular "YF-19" in its battroid form, which appeared in the OVA "Macross Plus," has finally been released in 1/72 scale.

Hasegawa has previously released VF-1 and VF-0 batroid forms, but let's take a look at how Hasegawa, known for its aircraft models, has approached this project.

First, let's start with the unassembled state without decals. No glue is needed for assembly. The parts are excellently divided, and there are almost no joints between the parts. And the proportions are excellent!

Even the fuselage, which shows complex movements when transformed, is easy to assemble because it is a non-transforming model.

The accessories other than the main body of the YF-19 are shown here. The kit can be assembled with or without the fast pack. Depending on how you assemble it, you can enjoy reconfiguring both forms even after completion.

Water-transfer decals are lined with various caution marks and color separations to complement the color scheme.

Clear parts are used for the forehead and goggles portion of the head. There is also detail inside the goggles. The internal mechanism of the neck is also well reproduced.

The chest block where the nose portion of the fighter form is housed. The folded over part is a separate part and has a three-dimensional effect.

Even the nose section, which is almost invisible once assembled, is detailed. It is as expected.

There are also details on the root section of the main wings. In the battroid form, the air intake covers are closed.

The parts configuration of the waist center block is also detailed.

The center part is the main part, and the hexagonal parts attached to the left and right are separate parts.

This is my imagination, but I think that the parts indicated by the red lines cannot be molded if they were to be removed as a single part, so they were made into separate parts in order to reproduce the shape as set.

This is also as expected.

The main wing parts are very realistic with the thickness of plastic that is typical of aircraft models.

The toes are also moderately sharp. The fine details of each part have a delicacy that can only be achieved with a model of this size.

The upper surface of the calf is also detailed. The base of the folded tail fin also has mechanical details.

The slit on the back of the thighs is also open.

The upper back is also detailed as per the settings.

Behind the main thruster in the battroid form, there is a slit detail. The blocky parts on the back are also constructed without unnatural joints, so it is easy to assemble after painting.

The shoulder armor is rather complicated. The thrusters and their surroundings are also finely sculpted.

Clear parts are used for the sensors on the arms. A shield is attached to the left arm. The wrist is also sculpted in a mechanical shape without omission.

Two types of heel parts are provided. This one is a type that focuses on the battroid form with a large ground contact area.

This is a sharply shaped type that reproduces the shape of the vector nozzle in fighter form.

Not only the shape is different, but of course the sole pattern is also different. Choose according to your preference.

The head is connected to the neck part by a ball joint. The base part can swing back and forth.

Laser machine gun on the top of the head is also movable.

Shoulder base can swing back and forth slightly.

Waist can also swing lightly.

Extremely excellent forward and backward leg opening.

The knee joints are double-jointed and can be bent this far. The main wing blocks are also movable at the shaft connection.

Elbows are double-jointed.

Arms can be rolled and rotated under the elbows. Arms can be lifted laterally up to approximately 90 degrees.

The left and right leg openings are made possible by adding a movable part in the middle of the thighs.

Even when the figure is in a free-standing position, a certain amount of posing can be enjoyed.

One of the included "Pinpoint Barrier Punch" effect parts.

The gun pod can be mounted behind the shield by attaching the grip in its retracted state.

You can also have the gun pod by replacing the wrist with a weapon handle. A flat hand is attached to the left hand.

It can also be made to hold with both hands.

Removing the cover part on the underside of the waist exposes a hole for connection. The included stand can be attached here.

It would be nice to intertwine it with the YF-21 Battroid.

Fast Pack attached!

Next, the back of the Fast Pack equipped state. It can be easily reproduced by replacing some parts of the shoulders and legs. At first, we expected that the fast-pack equipped type would be released as a separate kit, but it is now released as a compatible kit!

The shoulder parts are interchangeable with some of the body side parts.

The side parts of the legs replace a part of the armor.

The additional parts of the calf are also reproduced by replacing some of the body side parts.

With decals and simple smear, detail up!

Up to this point, we have introduced the model in its unassembled state with no decals attached.

Usually, in this series, we suggest assembling the model in a weekend, but since there are many water-transfer decals, there is a possibility that the process described in the instruction manual may not be enough for a weekend if you work carefully.

Therefore, this time, we only did a light smear.

The water-transfer decals are a must-see. Even if the decals are not visible when the model is assembled, they are well reproduced for a three-dimensional and realistic effect.

Of course, depending on the person who builds the model, he/she may choose to apply only the large decals and omit the small decals. If you have time, please try to apply all the decals.

Here is a picture of all the decals applied according to the instruction manual with a simple smear. It seems that it will not be difficult to paint the black lines that will be processed by applying the decals. If you have a painting environment, please give it a try.

The details are emphasized by applying the decals, and more precision is expressed.

There are decals to reproduce the color scheme, but each part also contains details that can be used as a guide when painting, so if possible, painting all the parts is also an option.

This is the fast-pack equipped state.

Actually, I failed to apply some of the black line decals, so I retouched some parts with black markers, but by applying a matte finish, they are now completely blended in and the difference is not noticeable.

My first impression upon completion was, "This is a magnificent model! I was very impressed with the model.

The plastic models I have been working with recently have excellent mobility and deformation, and many of them seem to have a high degree of accuracy as assembled movable figures.

However, this kit feels like an "aircraft model in human form. I received a lot of inspiration from this kit, which is full of attention to detail as a plastic model.

Incidentally, this kit is really easy to assemble, and once glued together, it can be moved with more ease. In that respect, it could be said to be a kit for those who are beginners in plastic modeling to improve their skills.

Some people may be uncomfortable with decals, but here's one thing you can do! Why don't you challenge this "kawaii" and become a modeler one step higher?

Mr. Takano will be playing the role of Rensuke Irimichi, aka Rensuke (nickname), the class committee member who organizes everyone's activities. He says, "He has leadership skills, so when trouble arises, I am impressed by the way he calmly calls out to everyone when they ask him for help. I was very surprised when I found out in the manga that Rensuke has many circumstances. He also said, "This is my first anime regular! I got to see a lot of cooler parts up close from the voice actors I usually respect.

List of Character Introductions

Rensuke Irimichi (CV: Kou Takano)

He's a one-eyed kid. His nickname is Rensuke. He is on the class committee with Mr. Utagawa, and is the one who organizes everyone. He is usually kind, but when he loses his temper, he becomes unruly. His eyesight is 130. He can see too much.

Kou Takano (as Rensuke Irimichi) comment
(1) About your role
Rensuke Irimichi is a strong man with many friends and is called by the nickname "Renren.
He is a one-eyed youkai with outstanding eyesight.
He also has leadership skills, so when trouble arises, everyone relies on him to calmly call out for help.
There are many reasons why Renren is like that...
When I learned about it in the manga, I was really surprised.

Comment to the fans
This is my first anime regular!
I got to see a lot of cooler parts up close from the voice actors whom I usually respect.
I was really afraid of the scene, but I was given a luxurious and wonderful role, so I did my best in my own way to make as many people as possible think that it was great that Kou Takano played the role of Rensuke Irimichi.
I hope that many people will think that Rensuke Takano was a good choice for the role of Rensuke Takano!

3) Memories of my school life that I can say only now
I am an honor student like Renshu, but I was not a class committee member.
I am an honor student like Renshu, but I was once caught playing a game during class and had it confiscated.
I have the same hair style as Renshu, and I was once warned that my bangs were too long.

Akira Takahashi (CV. Shota Aoi)

Hyakumei Oni. He is the infirmary teacher at Hyakki Gakuen, but he is a psychopath who is a total pervert. He is so "perverted" that I can't even say it here. He is always smiling, always huffing and puffing. Calm down.

Shota Aoi (Akira Takahashi) comment
(1) About your role
I will be playing the voice of Akira Takahashi!
He is a tricky character who is a doctor and a health teacher but also has a psycho side!

(2) Comments to fans
I am very honored to be able to play my favorite role in my favorite work.
I am very honored to be able to play the role of my favorite character in my favorite work!

(3) Your favorite character in this work
My own guesses are Mr. Akira Takahashi and the one-eyed Irimichi!
Irimichi-kun is so cute!

Koutarou Mudou (CV. Yasuto Saka)


Kudabo. He's a yokai that appears in the rice paddies. His nickname is Hijitan. He is a self-proclaimed "big brother" of the class. He is popular with the boys, but not with the girls. When he gets angry, he sometimes throws mud at them. It's annoying.

Tamao Akisame (CV. Yuki Sakakibara)


She is a nekomata. Her nickname is Tama. Her tail and ears are always popping out, making her a lively character. She is best friends with Renren. Like Mamekichi, she is not good at studying, but she is more pure and straightforward than Mamekichi (according to her).

Yakumo N badger (CV. Takao Mitsutomi)


He is a very smooth guy with a shaggy afro and a cheerful smile. A cheerful yankee with a shaggy afro. He often hangs out with Renren and Tama. Sometimes he gets carried away and wears stompers, but before he knows it, he's back to his original Afro. He's a tough guy.

Fuyuya Fuji (CV: Sakuo Hinata)


She is a snow woman. He is a beautiful guy who likes to dress up as a woman and has a bit of an "S" side. He breathes a breath so cold that it freezes people. In summer, he saves on air-conditioning.

Yuri Renjo (CV: Nanako Mori)


She's a "kakushinbu" (new wife). It's a "jorogu" in Japanese. She is a spider demon who freely manipulates threads with her eight hands. She was born from a giant spider, and she is a beautiful young lady with a beautiful way with words. Ohohohoho~.

Yanagida (CV: Tomokazu Sugita)


He is Ichikan Kiwami. Despite his cute looks, he is a mad scientist. He belongs to the science club and is always developing weird drugs. When he appears in the movie, there is usually a sound effect of "choo-choo" or "kachudo". It's annoying.

Makoto Yamazaki (CV. Tomoaki Maeno)


He is a doppelganger policeman. He can transform into anyone, not only in appearance, but also in personality and inside. His face is wrapped in bandages. He's very fashionable.

Marshmallow (CV: Chisai Morinaga)


She is a mandragora. She is a good partner who is always by Seimei's side. She is a cute mascot character who gives calm and accurate advice to Seimei when he is in a panic. She has a marshmallow body.

Little Uncle (CV: Tetsuya Yanagihara / American Crayfish)


Little Uncle. That's me. A super, super cute mascot character who appears in various scenes in the work. I know everything there is to know about yokai. I'm looking forward to seeing your goods. I'm looking forward to seeing your goods.

Comments

HoneyWorks Comment

This is HoneyWorks.
We produced the OP music with two members of Hakoniwa Lily on vocals.
I hope that the "sparkle" of Takuya and Rika's married life(?) will reach everyone through this song. I would be happy if the "sparkle" of Takuya and Rika's married life(?) could reach everyone through this song, even if only a little.

Gohoubi Comment

I have been in a state of confusion, sometimes convinced that I am fine with this, and other times wondering if it is really okay.
I wrote this song while thinking about what it means to "feel for someone else" through Takuya and Rika, who are repeatedly asking themselves the same question and nurturing their own hearts.
As someone who likes to be alone, this story resonated with me so much that it was a real shock.
I want everyone living today to see this film.

Comments from Tamiki Wakagi, author of the original story

I can't stay up late these days, so I'm glad I could watch it at this time! I can't wait to hear their voices. Please do me a favor, readers. Please come to the previews! I'll be there and probably talk about something.

(I'll probably be there and talk about something.)

Victory is only given to those who prepare thoroughly!

Play strategically by dividing roles


The infantryman who spearheads the attack and stops the enemy's movement, the strategist who manipulates powerful magic, the bowman who can attack both on the ground and in the air, and the artilleryman who fires a wide range of artillery shells!
Towers that can take advantage of each characteristic can be placed according to the terrain for optimum efficiency.

Shoma Toriashi will be played by Koji Yusa and Yzumi Suo by Hiroshi Kamiya.
Cast comments were also received from both actors! They also share their impressions of the work and their enthusiasm for playing the characters.

Shoma Toriashiro CV Koji Yusa

After an incident, Shoma was adopted by Renji.
He is a brusque, quiet person who always seems to be in a daze.
He and Yoshino have known each other for a long time, as if they were family, and although he is not very sociable, he shows a side of him that acts for Yoshino's sake.
At first glance, he seems unapproachable, but he is well-liked by men and women of all ages and has a sociable and worldly-wise side.

Koji Yusa's Comment

The charm of this work
The world depicted in this work is one that we don't usually come into contact with, and there is a series of dangerous incidents.
The characters' actions are so exciting that you can't help but watch them even though you know they are dangerous.

What is your enthusiasm for the role?
Shoma is not a very sociable person, and he does not talk much, but inside he is full of strong feelings.
I think he is a very attractive person.
I will try my best to express his personality in a few lines.

Yzumi Suo CV: Hiroshi Kamiya

He is ruthless and taciturn. He is a dangerous man who is capable of cleaning up a yakuza's office by himself within a week.
His motives for taking the job, the means by which he carries it out, and the gang he belongs to are all shrouded in mystery.
He appears before Kirishima in search of Yoshino, but his reasons are unknown. He seems to have met Kirishima in the past, but...?
He usually wears a mask and his expression is unreadable, giving him an eerie air.

Comments by Hiroshi Kamiya

The charm of this work.
In many ways, the real intentions and the front of the house of strong people get mixed up, and even though it is their lives that are being exchanged, it seems as if it is a matter of course... If you start to feel numb in that area, I think you have become obsessed with the charm of this work.

What is your enthusiasm for the role?
My rivals are Ishida Akira and Yusa Koji... I am participating in this work because I think it will be a serious competition both as a role and as a voice actor!

(* Comment original)

The ending theme song will be Yoshino's "Nani Laughing Tonnen"!

Information on the ending theme song has also been released!
The ending theme song will be "Nani Shorotonnen" by Yoshino, a singer who will make her major debut this October from Pony Canyon.

Yoshino's comment

My name is Yoshino, and I am the singer who sang the ending theme song for the TV anime "I want to be a stranger in this life.
I am very happy to be involved in this work by one of my readers, Sho Konishi.
The ending theme song, "Nani Laughing Tonnen" was composed by Teniwa.
As a person with the same name as the character "Yoshino," I tried my best to express the characters' way of life and the worldview that overflows from the work.
I hope you enjoy both the animation and the music.

]]> [Plastic Model Review] "I've been waiting for ...... all my life!" Voice actor Yasuyuki Tai takes on the long-awaited "MODEROID BARONZU" from the legendary Tomino anime "Bren Powered! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71254/ Thu, 15 Aug 2024 00:51:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71254/

When you are a working adult, you tend to have a lot of plastic models piled up in your busy life. ...... In this series, Yasuyuki Tai, a voice actor who loves robots and plastic models, takes on the challenge of building plastic models on your behalf!

The concept is "Even busy working people can make it this far on weekends and vacations! The only two rules of this article are that the model must be finished as an unassembled model and that you can spend only one or two days to build it! Read this series, and you will surely find the plastic model you want to build.

Taiyuki's Weekend Plastic Modeling Vol. 96 "MODEROID BARONZOO

The "Bren Powered" series released by Good Smile Company's plastic kit series "MODEROID" has been well received!

The long-awaited Baron Zhu has finally been released. Many of you may have been traumatized by its performance in the movie, and we believe that the power and charm of the figure is fully reproduced in this kit.

The package illustration depicts the figure flying high in the sky, with the shoulder fins deployed. The contrast between the white body and the light green scattered in various parts is beautiful.

This is the unassembled model. No stickers are used. The figure is beautifully divided and pre-painted, so it can be assembled to look as close as possible to the image in the movie.

Looking from the back, you can see the internal mechanism made of stacked plate-like parts. The sculpture is deep, so even without any smearing, the shadows fall and give the figure a three-dimensional appearance.

The red parts for the eyes are painted parts. The green parts around the temples are separate parts. Green parts on both shoulders are painted parts.

The neck can swing back and forth.

Because of this design, the joints of the parts are not noticeable at all.

The deployment of the shoulder fins is reproduced by replacing the parts. It will be introduced later.

The armor of the forearms is color-coded by dividing the parts.

The armored parts of the chest and waist will look more three-dimensional if you apply a smear finish.

The waist is connected with ball joints, so twisting is easy.

The shoulder area is divided into smaller parts. ......

Arms can be lifted horizontally.

The elbow joints can roll and rotate at each of the upper and lower elbow joints, which is quite useful for adding expression to both arms. Both left and right wrists come with fists and flat hands with expressions.

The legs are also wonderfully movable.

The cockpit hatch at the waist is replaceable and can be selected to open or close.

The toe and heel parts can also be moved significantly.

Hip joint swings widely up and down at the base.

By replacing the lower waist part, you can connect it to "The Simple Stand" (sold separately) to recreate a floating state.

After all, the anti-body looks great flying around.

Now it is time to replace the fin parts.

Let's start with the small fins on the front of the shoulders. Replace it with the sword-shaped fin. The green color on the tip of the fin is color coded by stickers.

The back side is also detailed.

The larger fins on both shoulders are shown here in their deployed state. By replacing the parts, you can recreate this bold and disastrous appearance.

The tips of the fins are also color-coded with stickers.

Of course, all fin deployment parts can be attached.

The left and right interchangeable wrists also include a weapon handle, but this is because the "Quincy Baron Zhu", a color variation kit available only from the online store, comes with a handheld weapon and sword extension, and the "Baron Zhu" sold to the general public does not include a corresponding weapon. The "Baron Zhu" sold by the general public does not come with a corresponding weapon.

In addition, I thought "⁉ to make it come with a plastic kit"! This is a minifigure of Baron Maximilian, and although it must be painted, this is an interesting accessory.

He is flying with his cape fluttering. The simple stand" can be connected to the joint hole on his back.

Even when zoomed in, you can see the high accuracy of the modeling. He is very spirited.

The protrusions on the left and right sides of the board are for stable placement, so you can cut them off if you want to display it in flight.

One extra step to make it more three-dimensional

Finally, we added an "extra step. This time, I simply used GSI Creos' "Multi-Gray" weathering color for the entire body and "Last Orange" for the shoulder armor.

The figure looked very three-dimensional even as unassembled, but the smudging process made it look even more three-dimensional.

The details around the head are more clearly defined.

For the shoulder armor, we used "Last Orange" based on the package illustration. Brownish lines have been added.

The details of the chest armor will be clearer if it is smeared.

In order to make the best use of the smooth design of the armored legs, I used a smudged image.

The plate-like laminated parts were also simply smudged to give a nice finish.

The fin parts in the unfolded state were also smeared in the same way. I avoided smearing the parts with stickers because the paint might run under the stickers.

Last Orange" is originally a rust color, but in this case, I think it did a good job of smearing.

I didn't get to paint Baron Maximilian this time, but this is a good opportunity for you to try painting your own figures.

Although there is no news so far on the next kit in the "Bren Powered" series, we are hoping that they will go this far to sculpt the two Brenchilds that Kanan and Higgins will be flying.

We have high expectations for MechaSma!

]]> This is Akiba Research Institute's last anison song poll project! The "2024 Summer Anime Song Popularity Poll" has begun! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71230/ Tue, 13 Aug 2024 19:19:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71230/

Akiba Research Institute's official project "Which song is your favorite? 2024 Summer Anison Popularity Poll" started on August 14. The deadline for voting is August 28.

The summer anime of 2024 has entered the middle stage of the season! There is a lineup of hot and intense works that will blow away the summer heat. Of course, the anime songs are also full of great songs and popular songs. Akiba Research Institute's annual official project, "Which song is your favorite?

Click here to vote.
The first ani-song that drew a great deal of attention this season was "Shika-iro Days," the OP of "Shikano no kokoshitantan" (Shika Color Days). In a sense, it is the heir to the good old radio wave song, and it will be interesting to see how far it will be able to increase the number of votes with its topicality.
On the other hand, major artists such as GLAY, Ikimono-gakari, Mika Nakashima, and Torayasu Hotei are also in the list. One wonders how much the number of fans they originally have will affect the voting.

In addition, "Wakakun the Runaway" and "Too Many Losing Heroines! will also be the eye of the typhoon.

Of course, there are also a number of royal anime songs sung by anime song singers and voice actors, making it impossible to predict which songs will make it to the top this year.

It is your clean vote that will decide the ranking of the best anime songs! Whether you cry or laugh, this is Akiba Research Institute's last Anime Song Popularity Poll. We hope that all of you will participate in the voting so that you will have no regrets.

The deadline for voting is August 28, 2024.

Each person can cast up to seven votes, so you can either give all your votes to your favorite best ani-song, or you can assign your votes to multiple favorite songs. We hope that you will cast your passionate votes.
(*You must be logged in as a member of Akiba Research Institute to vote.)

Tokyo Chronos & Alt Deus: Beyond Chronos Twin Pack is an adventure game released on August 1, 2024 that combines the 2019 VR mystery adventure game Tokyo Chronos and the 2020 VR interactive story action game Alt Deus: The Beyond Chronos" to the Nintendo Switch, and the two titles together as a pack.

The two titles are highly regarded by VR game players as "visual novels that can be enjoyed with the realistic sensation of VR" and "anime that can be experienced," which is good news for those who have heard of them but have been unable to play them due to lack of VR equipment. In addition to being controllable with either a controller or touch screen, the presentation and UI (user interface) have been optimized for the Nintendo Switch.

Since the story of both titles is important, it is not possible to talk about what happens next in this paper. In short, there are no spoilers in this paper, so please feel free to continue reading.

Kyoisuke and his friends are at a loss, but suddenly, the words "I am dead, who is the culprit?" are projected on the wall of the building. is suddenly projected on the wall of a building. Shibuya has become a "Chronos World" closed off by a mysterious force, and they cannot escape unless they find the culprit.

The story is filled with a strong Nikaido Hanarei (CV: Yui Ishikawa), a genius physicist Yuria Higashikuni (CV: Naoko Yuzuki), a photography hobbyist Yu Momono (CV: Kido Kiwuki), Sai Kamiya (CV: Park Norumi), who has excellent abilities and even uses her parents' power to deal with problems, and Ai Ryokaku (CV: Sakurai Oori), who has absolute trust in him, as well as a group of people with strong human qualities, including the youngest daughter, Yuria, who has a strong sense of humor and is a genius. Shiori Sakurai), Tetsu Kageyama (CV: Yuki Kaji), who can empathize with others' feelings, and the cheerful mood-maker Sota Machikoji (CV: Keisuke Ueda). Even though they have been estranged for some time now, Kyoisuke cannot believe they are capable of killing people. While everyone is searching for a way out, Lowe (CV: Ryohei Kimura), a boy who claims to be the eighth childhood friend that no one remembers, appears and confuses everyone with his taunting attitude. ......

While most VR games at the time offered action and unusual experiences, this title is unique in that it focuses on the story. In the delicate relationship of estranged childhood friends, you have to wonder if the other person is a murderer. The reunion amidst a certain mixture of nostalgia and awkwardness is something everyone remembers, and it evokes empathy in the player.

The setting is also interesting, as Shibuya becomes a supernaturally closed space, empty except for Kyo-suke and his childhood friends. Kyo-suke and his friends scavenge for supplies in an unoccupied store, set up a table (brought from the nearby Tokyu Store) at an empty scramble crossing, and cook curry as if they were in a camping camp. They would handle as they pleased the products displayed in the city to stimulate their desires, and monopolize the scramble intersection, which is always full of people. It's like a child's idea, but that's why this moment is so precious and emotional for the player. As children, we all thought that the bonds of camaraderie and the joy of camping would last forever. However, later life experience reminds us that these moments will end someday. Hence the nostalgia for unexpected reunions and good times.

As a VR game by nature, it is also important to focus on the real-life presence of childhood friends. Everyone is portrayed as realistic in scale, and the way they surround Kyoisuke has the comfort of a large elementary school group. There are scenes in which childhood friends approach Kyoisuke, adding to the sense of realism (this is not a VR game, however. (However, it should be noted that this is not a VR game, and a normal display will not be able to fully reproduce the production intent of the original VR game).

The voice acting is superb, and should appeal to those who enjoy anime.

Will the childhood friends be able to find the culprit and escape "Kronos World"? If you are curious, please play the game yourself.

Altodeus: Beyond Kronos" is an intense science fiction game that takes place in Shibuya, an underground city recreated in the future.


Alt Deus: Beyond Chronos" takes place 300 years after "Tokyo Chronos. The world has been attacked by Meteora, a super-giant creature, and the human race has fled to an underground city. The main character, Chloe (CV: Akari Kito), fights against "Meteora" by driving "Alto Macchia," a huge humanoid city defense weapon. What drives her is not love for humanity or a sense of mission, but only a desire for revenge. She continues to fight today to kill Meteora, who ate her best friend Koko (CV: Kaya Okuno), with her own hands. ......

If "Tokyo Chronos" is a "visual novel that can be enjoyed with the realism of VR," "Alt Deus: Beyond Chronos" is an "anime to experience.

One of the main attractions is the VR game-like experience of piloting the 400 meter tall giant robot "Machia". The player can experience the control of "Machia" from Chloe's first-person point of view, which makes it an anime-like experience.

The player authenticates by placing his or her hand on the floating console in the air and enters the activation code. The outside is projected on the all-sky screen, and Chloe's hand becomes the hand of her beloved "Alto Macchia". The player takes control of the "Mirror Generator" to launch a counterattack against the enemy's attack; the [L][R] stick on the Joy-Con is depressed to grab and combine the two separate railgun parts, and [ZL][ZR] is used to fire. Due to the fact that the game has been ported to a video game console, the experience is not exactly the same as the original VR game, but those who enjoy robot animation will be delighted with the experience.

As in "Tokyo Chronos," the human drama in this film is also heavy. Chloe is a genetically engineered "designed human," and although she is highly capable of fighting, she has little emotion. It is Koko who teaches her joy, anger, sorrow, and the human heart. She is more important to Chloe than anyone else, but she was eaten by Meteora.

Noa (CV: Yumiri Hanamori), an "artificial augmented recognition crystal" who assists in piloting "Alto Macchia," is by her side now, but her presence, a copy of Koko but not quite a likeness, is of no comfort to Chloe. Chloe's hatred for "Meteora" continues to burn, as she continues to dredge up regrets from the past. As the game progresses, the past with Koko and the depth of Chloe's feelings become clearer. Noah is also worried about Chloe and tries to attract her attention in various ways, but his feelings do not reach the half-desperate Chloe. The story is centered on a dead person who does not exist in this world, and the one-way transmission of unrequited feelings between the person who cannot accept death and a copy of the dead person is truly deep. It will be a hit with relationship moe.

Another interesting aspect of this work is that AR-like ideas are incorporated into the worldview. Chloe and the other characters in the film wear the AR device "Glyai" at all times, and what they see is a world in which the real world and AR displays become one. The "Glyai Eye" is equipped with "Libra," an AI that analyzes surrounding conversations to support choices, and when faced with a decision, the choices literally appear before your eyes. In other words, the game incorporates the choices of an adventure game in a natural way.

A.T. (Augmented Tokyo), the underground city where humans live, is a glamorous place, with glittering "textures" (AR advertisements) floating in the city blocks, reminiscent of Shibuya, Tokyo. However, once the user removes the "texture" by manipulating the "glai", the reality of a gray underground city is revealed. People are indulging in "textures" to distract themselves from the painful reality of being chased off the face of the earth by Meteora. This is not a mere fantasy, but a satirical and funny story based on real-life problems such as excessive intervention by AI and the flood of advertisements.

In addition, there are various keywords that are interesting to science fiction readers, making this a work that can be recommended to science fiction lovers as well.

TV anime "Blue Exorcist: Yukinogatari Arc" ED theme release PV｜October 5 (Sat.) broadcast start

Comment from Yobahi


My name is Yobahi, and I will be performing the ending theme for "Blue Exorcist: Yukino-Ka-hen. This is the first time for me to enter into the world of the anime and create a song, but I was able to create a song with ups and downs that is close to Yukio's feelings.
It is the kind of song that can gently melt the heart of someone who hides clumsy love deep in his chest but is as cold and sharp as Tsurara.
We hope to deliver the charm of Aoek that we have loved for a long time in our music! (Vo. & Gt. Nakatsu)

Story.

Cupito Inida is in despair after being fired from his job due to a serious mistake at his company.
In search of a drink, he heads for his favorite izakaya (Japanese-style pub), where a fateful encounter awaits him.

While trying to heal his own emotional wounds, a disheartened-looking cupbearer (player) is approached by a woman.
With a bright smile on her face, she invites him to have a drink and switch things up.

He follows her and finds himself in a "bunny garden," a gentleman's haven where ladies as cute as rabbits serve their customers.

What kind of changes will this encounter bring about in their lives?
Let's enjoy a dreamy moment at "BUNNY GARDEN".

Wonder Festival 2024 [Summer]" was held at Makuhari Messe in Chiba Prefecture on Sunday, July 28, 2024.

Wonder Festival," one of the world's largest figurative arts and figures festivals, began as an event for professionals and amateurs alike to showcase their figurative skills by bringing kits they have created to exhibit and sell at the event.

]]> Shaved ice in Akihabara! Delicious fresh fruit "Karyo MATSUTOMI" pineapple shaved ice 600 yen! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71240/ Mon, 12 Aug 2024 23:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71240/

When you come to Akihabara, you may have a hard time deciding where to have lunch.

In this corner, I, Shun Gori, who always wanders around Akihabara even when I have nothing else to do, will introduce you to some Akiba eats that I recommend in order to help you choose a lunch.

⇒ 26 1,000 yen lunches in Akihabara! From ramen to set menus! Cosy gourmet food that is easy on the wallet!


Speaking of sweets in Akihabara, there is a wide variety of sweets such as taiyaki, crepes, and tapioca drinks, but shaved ice is a must in summer.

This time, we visited the juice stand "Karyo MATSUTOMI," a 0-minute walk from Suehirocho Station.

Karyo Matsutomi is located along Chuo-dori Avenue, just outside Exit 1 of Suehirocho Station on the Tokyo Metro Line. The store was originally an old kamaboko store that was remodeled to create a retro atmosphere.

Incidentally, "Karyo MATSUTOMI" originally had a background as a fruit and vegetable wholesaler at the Kanda Fruit and Vegetable Market near Akihabara Station until 1989. Upon the market's relocation, the company took advantage of its many years of experience in the fruit and vegetable wholesale business to open "Karyo MATSUTOMI," offering fresh fruit and vegetable juices that allow customers to enjoy the true flavor of the ingredients.

The store displays a menu of juices made from seasonal fruits and vegetables.

The interior of the renovated 70-year-old kamaboko store has a Showa-era atmosphere with the warmth of wood and a nostalgic feeling. The restaurant has four wooden chairs that look like they were once used at an elementary school, so you can sit down to eat or drink inside the store.

Fruit juices are the mainstay of the store, but starting this year, they are also offering shaved ice made from fresh fruit for a limited time only.

This time, the shaved ice is what we are looking for.

There are four flavors to choose from: strawberry, raspberry, kiwi, and pineapple.

All of the flavors look delicious, and it was very difficult to decide which one to order, but I decided to go with pineapple because "summer means pineapple! So I selected "Pineapple" (600 yen including tax) for my order!

Normally, pineapple is completely pulverized when it is made into juice, but when it is processed into shaved ice syrup, it is made to have just the right texture to allow the customer to enjoy the texture of the fruit.

By alternately layering the shaved ice with this fruit syrup, the shaved ice can be enjoyed alternately with the rich fruit syrup and the crisp ice.

It is nice that the fruit is sparingly strewn in the ice.

The ice is not the fine-grained fluffy stuff that is so popular these days, but rather a crunchy, shaved texture that allows you to feel the grains of ice as in the past.


Fruits keep coming out as you eat and eat, so you can enjoy it all the way through.

This time, we visited the juice stand "Karyo MATSUTOMI" just outside Exit 1 of Suehirocho Station.

The shaved ice, made with an abundance of fruits carefully selected with an eye cultivated over many years in the fruit and vegetable wholesale business, tasted luxurious and was extremely delicious. The shaved ice not only replenished the water I had lost while strolling around Akihabara, but also provided me with the natural vitamins of fresh fruit, killing two birds with one stone.

The store also offers fruit and ham sandwiches for purchase, but reservations are required for these sandwiches, so those who want to try them should make their reservations ahead of time.

While old and new band anime were competing for the top spot, " DYNAMIC CHORD " quickly snatched the top spot. Based on an otome game, this work depicts episodes of several bands in an omnibus format, but what drew the most attention were the so-called "broken drawings" scenes. Many anime fans may remember that the title of the work was "Dynamic XX," a phrase that was popular among anime fans at the time of its airing.
In this year's poll, too, "Dynamic XX" did not receive many votes until the middle of the show, but it quickly rose in the rankings toward the end and eventually took the top spot, showing a dynamic development.


In second place was " SHOW BY ROCK!Masyumaireshu! and " SHOW BY ROCK! ranked third, followed by "SHOW BY ROCK! This series is a title based on an original story by Sanrio. The bands and characters in the series have gained popularity, and at the time of broadcast, the characters from this series dominated the top ranks of the Sanrio Character Awards.
Each band is different from the other. Like the unique characters, each band played a variety of sounds and enlivened the work.


Fourth place went to " BanG Dream! It's MyGO!!!!!." This is a work from the "BanG Dream!" project that was broadcast in 2023.
It's MyGO!!!!!" is one of the works of the "BanG Dream! was a serious work that drew attention for its serious content, which depicted the sordid human relationships that are common in real band activities, and always had a tingling sense of tension in the air. The film's depiction of the live stage, where the band overcame various obstacles to reach their goal, was extremely emotional! The live stage was also very emotional. The live performances, in which the seismic voice actors played musical instruments, were also a feature of the "BanG Dream! In particular, the voice of vocalist Takamatsu Toh (CV: Hina Yotomiya) was superb.


Fifth place went to " Bocchi Za Rokku!", the typhoon of the band anime boom in recent years. (Bokuchi za Rokku!). The comical story depicts the main character, Hitori Goto, who is a gloomy character and uses his guitar skills to pave the way for a new life. In most band anime, the main character is a vocalist, but the main character in this work is a guitarist, which is new. The songs are filled with impressive guitar phrases, and many of the songs are very interesting to listen to. A compilation movie is currently being released. A second season is expected to be produced.


In sixth place was " K-ON! which can be said to be the originator of the bishojo band anime. Like "BOTCHI ZA ROCK! and "Bocchi Za Rokku!" were both published in the manga magazine "Manga Time Kirara," so it is fate that they were ranked side by side in the same category.
This is a daily life anime that depicts the adolescent lives of high school girls who belong to a light music club. The loose style of the work, in which the students "engage in some specific activity," but it does not become the main focus of the story, was also innovative. Many hit anime songs, such as "Fluffy Time," were created as a result of this work. The influence of this work is immeasurable, as countless anime fans have taken up musical instruments as a result of this work, and some of them have even gone on to become professional musicians.


Seventh place went to " Kira Kira 5th Anniversary Live Anime KICK START GENERATION. This is an OVA work based on a representative work of the game brand "OVERDRIVE," which is represented by bamboo of the rock band milktub.
This work is a music video work that depicts the bands in the play performing together in a live concert. At the time, I was shocked by the rock spirit of the story and moved by the band's sound, which was too hot to handle. ......


Eighth on the list is the anime " Girls Band Cry, " which will air in April 2024. Ahead of the anime's broadcast, the band "Togenashi Togeari," formed by the main cast, started their musical activities. The anime depicted the characters gradually coming together and performing live. The characters in this work are all girls with strong peculiarities. Many viewers empathized with the rock sound played by these overly unique and not-so-nice characters.


No. 9 " Bakumatsu Rock " is set in a world that closely resembles Japan at the end of the Tokugawa Shogunate, where Sakamoto Ryoma, Takasugi Shinsaku, and other samurai aspirants aim to restore the world through rock music. The cast featured many popular voice actors who play in bands, including Noriaki Taniyama, Tatsuo Suzuki, Shotaro Morikubo, and Tomoyuki Morikawa.


Coming in at No. 10 was " BanG Dream! This is the first work in the "BanG Dream!" project. In this unprecedented attempt, the cast actually played in a band, and they also played the characters in the anime. The experiment was a great success, and many of the bands in the film are actually playing in bands. This work is also an indispensable work in the popularity of band-based anime in recent years.


There are also a number of band-oriented anime ranked below 11th place. Please check them out as well.

]]> Works that entered China through regular channels but turned out to be disappointing [Anime Situation of Chinese Otaku]. https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71208/ Sun, 11 Aug 2024 18:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71208/

My name is Baigen Kagoyo, and I am introducing various topics related to the otaku situation in China.

When Japanese works enter China, it is more or less necessary to deal with China's unique circumstances and local rules, but depending on the time of year, we may also be involved in problems other than the content of the work, such as large-scale restrictions or worsening anti-Japanese sentiment.

In this final installment of the series, I would like to summarize once again some works that entered China through regular channels but became particularly unfortunate due to the situation in China.

The Progress of the Colossus



The original "Shinkage no Kyojin" did not really catch on with the Chinese otaku demographic at first, perhaps due in part to the strong artwork of the original work, but the anime version made it easier to accept in China, and its popularity in China exploded. The popularity at the time was tremendous, and it is said from various sources that it was the most popular Japanese work in China in the past 20 years, and that it was the work that generated the greatest instantaneous wind speed.

However, the direction of the content and the extreme depiction of the anime led to a lot of criticism in China during the period when it was distributed, and it became a leading example of Japanese anime that had a negative impact on young people. As I wrote in my previous article, it was blacklisted as a target for regulation of Japanese animation in China at the time.

Some Chinese otaku who knew the situation at that time said

The blacklist made it difficult to handle "Shinkage no Kyojin" through regular channels in China. Some of the blacklisted works have since been restored to anime distribution, and some of the film versions have been screened in China, but the Marching Giants have remained missing. ......

The reason why The Progress of the Colossus became popular at the social phenomenon level is because anime distribution on video websites attracted a large number of non-otaku anime viewers. So I think the impact of the regulation was quite large.

There were also stories such as the following.

In China at that time, the regular distribution of Japanese anime on video sites was expanding the general public and light anime lovers' viewership, and at the same time, the influence of non-regular anime viewers was decreasing due to the shrinking of the fan activity community. This is a persuasive argument for the view that the popularity and buzz of "The Progress of the Colossal Titan" rapidly shrank as a result of the restrictions.

The popularity of "The Clash of the Titans" in China continued even after it disappeared from regular distribution due to the restrictions, mainly among core fans, but the lack of new fans and the gradual radicalization of the genre led to differences in popularity and perception of the work among the general public, light anime fans, and foreign countries other than China. This is the reason why the work was so popular in the end of the production.

This was one of the reasons why, for better or for worse, the development of the final part of the work and the way the work ended were criticized by the Chinese fans, which is a characteristic of the strong fan base in China, and caused a firestorm.

My Hero Academia


In China, the deterioration of Sino-Japanese relations and the outburst of anti-Japanese sentiment have often had an impact on otaku-related fields, but in terms of impact on works, the firestorm that erupted in 2020 over "My Hero Academia" was probably the largest in recent memory.

The flames started when the name of the character "Shiga Maruta" in the work was criticized for being reminiscent of "Marta of the Japanese Army's Unit 731," among other things. This led to a huge firestorm, especially on the Korean and Chinese Internet, which caused the distribution of the anime, which was being distributed on several Chinese video sites at the time, to be cancelled all together.

The flames were so intense at the time that criticism of the work was so intense that the following comments were made

The main characters' birthdays are Hitler's birthday and the day the Japanese Communist Party was founded.

The situation was very dangerous for a while, as it even went to the stage where conspiracy theories such as "The birthdays of major characters are Hitler's birthday and the date when the Japanese Communist Party was founded" were mixed in. Even after an apology was issued by Shueisha during the firestorm, saying that there was "no intention to superimpose the work on past history," the flames remained unchecked for quite a long time, and the negative impact on the image of the work in China has remained strong even today.

Chinese otaku who experienced the mess at the time said

I think that the "Hiroakka" firestorm was partly related to the political situation in China's modern history and exploded in conjunction with general anti-Japanese sentiment. However, I still wonder why they chose to use a name that risks being misinterpreted when they were developing their work in China in relation to this incident. In China, it is not possible to say that we did not know about the Japanese military, especially in the area of history and politics in relation to the 731 incident.

And so on.

The subsequent firestorm over "Hiroaka" is characterized in part by the fact that the image of the work in China has since been cemented as "an anti-Chinese work and its author who was in flames," and that this has continued without any opportunity to be corrected.

In China's Internet community, the deletion or self-regulation of inflammatory or "sensitive topics" is actively carried out, perhaps in part to avoid risk on the part of administrators, and logs of online social networking sites and forums are often voluntarily deleted.

As a result, it is very difficult to trace back the Chinese Internet and investigate past incidents, and it is not uncommon for past flame wars to be based on personal subjective opinions and memories.

In China, there are not a few works that have a fixed image of being on fire due to such circumstances, but with "Hiroaca," the scale of the flames at the time and the fact that it became a "topic of some use" for video distribution, the negative image seems to have taken root deeply in a fairly wide range of people.

I have heard from Chinese geeks in the past about this area.

There are not a few Chinese otaku who recognize that "Hiroaca" is a work that has practically ended because of the flames. Even after the fire in China, the work continued to be popular not only in Japan, but also outside of China, with almost no awareness of the fact that the popularity of the work had been maintained or even increased.

I have also heard that "My Hero Académise in China" has been gaining popularity in China.

Looking at the "My Hero Academia" flame war in China and how it was handled afterwards, it seems to highlight the extent of the damage and difficulty in recovery when a work is labeled and flames up on the Internet in modern China.

Hi-Q!



HIQUE!!!" is a work that has a very large image in Japan and China in a different direction from "My Hero Academia.

In Japan, the theatrical version of "HIQUE! was a big hit in Japan, grossing over 10 billion yen at the box office, and this news was quite surprising among Chinese otaku.

At the time, Chinese otaku were very surprised by the news.

The huge success of the movie version of HIQ was very surprising. I didn't think it would be a record-breaking box-office success, since HIQ's popularity is almost non-existent on the Chinese Internet.

I also heard such comments as, "Why did you think it would be a record-breaking box office hit when it was supposed to be a finished work?

Why did "HIQUE," which is supposed to be a finished work, make such high box-office sales? which was supposed to be a finished work, was able to make such a high box-office profit?

was a topic of discussion in the Chinese otaku community, for better or worse.

Even in China, "HIQUE! When the first and second seasons of the anime were being distributed, it was very popular and highly rated, and was frequently mentioned as a recommended sports-related work. However, about 10 years later, it has completely become a work of the past, and the feelings of fans and former fans in China are said to be quite different from those in Japan, where not only the original manga but also various other media were developed to maintain the enthusiasm of fans.

In China, fan enthusiasm for any work rapidly wanes after its anime distribution is completed and renewed, and its popularity and buzz also tends to shrink.

And as for "Hi-Q! In addition to the long gap between anime distribution and the environment surrounding the distribution of anime, the global epidemic of the new corona and the postponement of the Olympics coincided with the distribution of the sequel anime, accelerating the loss of the work's presence in the real world.

In this regard, some Chinese otaku have commented

Not only Haikyuu, but in China today, it is very difficult to maintain the popularity of works. Once an anime's run as a new anime is over, its popularity rapidly declines, and it is very rare for it to remain popular until the sequel. In addition, due to stricter regulations, there are now fewer works that can be easily viewed on video sites, so the places where anime fans can get together and get excited are disappearing.


Hi-Q! is an unlucky work in the Chinese market. In the Chinese otaku community, it is treated as if the original work was finished before we knew it while we were confused by the influence of the real world. In addition to this, the distribution environment and topical elements in China created an image of it being for women that became too strong, and the attention from light anime fans began to fade away. I think the situation was completely different from Japan, where the excitement was linked to the reality of volleyball. ......

There were also stories such as "Hi-Q!

As for the "HIQUE! is a work that, while not so much influenced by politics, was clearly affected by the difference in media influence between Japan and China regarding Japanese works, especially in the Chinese environment where the presence of a work rapidly fades after the anime is over and it is treated as a work of the past.

Date A Live



Date A Live" is a work that boasts deep-rooted popularity in China, especially among readers of novels, and many Chinese otaku have become deeply involved in Japanese two-dimensional works and light novels through this work.

Although it is not the most popular work in the Chinese otaku community, it is said to be "a work that always has a stable and passionate following," and there is no doubt that it is a work with a long life that continues to be talked about by fans in China even after it became difficult to publish Japanese light novels in the country.

Also, one of the reasons why a sequel to this work was produced was not because of the size or potential of the Chinese market, but because of the relatively rare circumstance that a Chinese company was involved due to its clear popularity in China.

However, in the case of this anime, even though the high popularity in China was the reason for the production of the sequel, we ran into a situation in which the quality of the anime was degraded and distribution became impossible due to Chinese regulations.

The year 2022, when the fourth season of the anime was aired, was a time when regulations governing the distribution of anime on domestic video sites in China were becoming increasingly strict, and it is said that major revisions were necessary to the content of the anime to be distributed. A Chinese otaku who knew the situation at the time said

The fourth season of the "Date A Live" anime had to be revised within a tight schedule in order to be distributed in China, and the Chinese subtitled version distributed through the bilibili network for China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan was clearly a pilot version of a lower quality. This is a very bad memory for many fans.

There are many fans who remember this as a very bad memory," he said.

As for the fifth season, although there was excitement in China when the decision to produce the fifth season was announced, as time went by, there was an increase in disturbing information related to the work, and before the airing of the fifth season, the Chinese Internet was filled with such stories as "The fifth season of 'Date A Live' has been aired in China.

However, as time went on, there were more and more disturbing reports about the production, and before the broadcast, there were reports on the Chinese Internet that the fifth season of "Date A Live" had failed to pass the screening process in China, making domestic distribution impossible.

In fact, the fifth season of "Date A Live" was not distributed in China. In fact, the 5th season of "Date A Live" has not been distributed in China as of this writing.

Furthermore, just before the start of the 5th season, the Chinese side announced the dissolution of Good Show, a copyright management company belonging to the animation division of Daliangshan, which was involved in the 4th season of "Date A Live" in China.

It seems that "Date A Live" has become an example that even a popular work that the Chinese side is actively working on is inevitably affected by circumstances peculiar to China, and that the Chinese side's involvement does not mean that the Chinese market will be safe.

In addition to the works mentioned in this report, there are other works that were announced for distribution, but faded out without being distributed, perhaps because they could not pass the screening censorship after the tightening of regulations, and the way the excitement of fans in Japan , who were following the works in real time, declined and negative criticisms were noticeable. Witches of Mercury," and "Unemployed Reincarnation," which was burned to the ground due to feminism and Chinese values, as well as extreme agitation of video distribution.

In Japan as well, it is not uncommon for works to become a disappointment due to inflammation or other circumstances surrounding the work, but in China, works that become the target of regulations or attract too much attention due to inflammation tend to be entirely restricted or deleted, a situation unique to China.

This was especially true of "My Hero Academia," which was introduced this time, but there are many cases where distorted images have taken root in other works that have been "forgotten" as they are, and information about their popularity and reputation outside of China even after being burned or restricted has not been spread. Even after being burned or restricted, information about their popularity and reputation outside of China does not spread, and they tend to be treated as "finished works" in the Chinese otaku community.

Of course, there are some dedicated fans in China who follow up on what has happened since then through direct research of Japanese-language information and trends in Japan. However, the number of light fans of works that have "disappeared" is drastically reduced, and the remaining fan communities are more radical, for better or worse, making it difficult for calm and objective evaluations to spread.

As a result, not only in Japan and China, but also among otaku in China, there is a kind of disconnect regarding works of art, and it seems that more and more otaku are unable to share their memories of works, or are left with an image that is somehow misaligned or distorted.

Even in the Japanese otaku community, different generations have different impressions and knowledge of works, and there are circumstances that can only be understood by those who experienced them in real time.

However, in the Chinese otaku community, works and information frequently disappear due to regulations and self-imposed restrictions, and in a very short span of time, a kind of generational change is taking place in the form of a disconnection of information.

As someone who has been following the situation of Chinese otaku, I feel that this is a shame and a waste of time.

This will be the last issue, but I am very grateful that Akiba Research Institute has allowed me to continue writing this series even as the demand for China-related information is decreasing, and I myself have enjoyed writing it very much.

I am also very grateful to everyone who read this article on my hobby, and thank you very much for your support.

I will continue to post about the Chinese otaku situation on my blog, so if you are interested, I would appreciate it if you could take a look.

I went to school in China for over a decade starting in the 90's and encountered Chinese people who "love Japanese anime, manga, and otaku culture". Since then, I have been running a blog to provide information about Japanese otaku content and otaku culture, which has spread in China before I knew it.

]]> Commemorating the 30th anniversary of "Blue Swat" broadcast! The "Dictator" weapon item is now available with a new blowback mechanism, light-emitting gimmick, and sound! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71213/ Sat, 10 Aug 2024 18:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71213/

BANDAI OFFICIAL TOY SHOP has started taking reservations for "Dictator 30th ANNIVERSARY EDITION".

BANDAI OFFICIAL TOY SHOP has started accepting reservations for " Dictator 30th Anniversary Edition " (22,000 yen including tax, shipping and handling fee not included).

In commemoration of the 30th anniversary of the special effects program "Blue Swat" broadcast from 1994 to 1995, the weapon item "Dictator" will be released in a 30th anniversary edition.

The set includes the "Dictator" itself, two types of magazines, and a special display stand.
The exterior of the "Dictator" is based on its design in the movie, and a 32-round long magazine is included in addition to the standard 10-round magazine as a newly sculpted part to deepen the fun of playing with the weapon as if it were a real weapon.
A dedicated pedestal is also included for display.

The blowback action is reproduced with a new mechanism, and the "HyperBrit" armor piercing rounds appear from inside the gun in conjunction with the slide blowback.
In addition, as a mechanism to enhance the playful reproduction of the play, four LED lights are placed inside the energy coating unit, which emit light during enhanced attacks.
The muzzle and laser pointer are also equipped with a light-emitting gimmick. When the trigger is pulled, the muzzle emits light, and when the dedicated switch is pressed, the laser pointer emits light with an activation SE.
When the user finishes shooting a round in the magazine, an out-of-bullet sound is played and the magazine needs to be reloaded, providing a fun shooting experience reminiscent of the movie.

The model can also be switched between semi-automatic and fully-automatic modes, allowing the user to switch between two types of magazines for continuous-fire fun, just as in the film.
In addition to the sound effects that recreate scenes from the film, two BGM songs, the theme song and an insert song, are included, allowing the user to enjoy highly immersive impersonation play.
The BGM button can be pressed and held to play the BGM, and held down to switch between normal mode and enhanced mode.

This product is not designed to actually eject shell casings.
*Voice is subject to change without notice.

Product delivery is scheduled for February 2025. Reservations will be accepted until September 13, 2024 at 23:00, but please make reservations as soon as possible, as they may be terminated once the prepared number is reached.

]]> From "Kamen Rider Armorbu" comes the "Pineapple Arms" and "Strawberry Arms" conversion parts set, which corresponds to the arms change of the Shingokuseibou "Kamen Rider Armorbu" series! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71214/ Sat, 10 Aug 2024 16:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71214/

S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Armor Arms Change Set (Pine Arms & Strawberry Arms) is now available for reservation on Soul Web Store.

S.H.Figuarts ( Soul Web Store) Kamen Rider Armor Arms Change Set (Pine Arms & Strawberry Arms ) (9,900 yen including tax, shipping and handling fee not included) is now available for reservation on Soul Web Store.


Pine Arms! Smash Destroy!
Strawberry Arms! Spark!

From "Masked Rider Armor-Man" comes the "Pine Arms" and "Strawberry Arms" conversion parts set, which corresponds to the arms change of the Shingokuseibutsu "Masked Rider Armor-Man" series!

The set includes two types of arms (armor) used by Masked Rider Armor-Man in the series, the "Pineapple Arms" and the "Strawberry Arms". By attaching this figure to the "S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Armorbu: Orange Arms" (sold separately), you can recreate the arms change used in the show. Each Arms has metallic coloring to pursue the impression of the play.

Arms weapon "Pineapple Iron" and "Ichigokunai" are included. The "Pine Iron" is made of string material to create powerful action scenes, and can be combined with the "Musou Saber" included with the "S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Armed Forces Orange Arms" (sold separately) using the joint on the grip.

Each of the Arms can also be transformed into the "S.H.Figuarts (Genuine Engraving Process) Kamen Rider Baron Banana Arms" (sold separately). You can also enjoy changing Arms that have not appeared in the movie. Pine Arms' "Spine Sleeve" is a mechanism that connects the armor from the shoulder to the arm, allowing the armor to move without being affected by the arm action.

In addition, since the distance between the compound eye and the head armor differs for each masked rider, two types of "Compound Eye Plates for Arms Change" are included, which can be used according to each head shape to make the arms change to proportions closer to those of the play.
The "Pineapple Lock Seed" and "Strawberry Lock Seed" with open panels are also included and can be set on the "Senkyoku Driver" belt of the Masked Rider himself.

The product is scheduled to be delivered in February 2025. Reservations should be made as early as possible, as the product may be discontinued once the prepared quantity is reached.

(Photo by Rei Shibuya)]]> Four Tono! Akio Otsuka, Tomokazu Sugita, Masaki Aiba, and Shunsuke Takeuchi will play Tono in the fall anime "Tono to Inu"! Broadcasting will begin in October 2024. https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71217/ Fri, 09 Aug 2024 23:15:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71217/

The cast has been revealed for the upcoming anime adaptation of "Tono to Inu.

Tono to Inu" is a comedy manga written by Rie Nishida.

The story takes place in the Edo period (1603-1867) and depicts the master-servant life of a chubby corgi and a handsome ex-samurai named Tono. Tono, who was once active on the battlefield like a god, has fallen from grace and now lives a lonely life alone in his house. By chance, he picks up a strange-looking dog with a short torso and short legs and tries to treat it as a vassal, but he is constantly at the mercy of its mischievous behavior. ......


Since the serialization began in 2021, "The portrayal of the corgi is the cutest. The contrast with Tono's overly stern and strong face is surreal. The disproportion between the time period and the dog is also interesting. It's kind of addictive." Tono and the dog are both so cute. Tono is a scary old man with a face like a god, but he's kind of cute. The surreal and unintentionally funny story has been well received. The story of Tono and his dog, one man and one dog, and their daily lives will be adapted into a TV anime.

The cast for the role of Tono has been announced. The cast announced today consists of four actors playing Tono. The mystery of why there are four Tono will be revealed in the future at ......!


The key visual for the anime was also announced.
Broadcast information and other cast information will be released in due course, so please follow the official X (old Twitter) and wait for further information.

Casting/Comments for the role of Tono

Akio Otsuka as Tono

I am not sure if I can take the first step, but I would like to build a friendship with a dog. I am very happy to be able to work with Tono and his dog, and I feel that way even more so now. We rely on language, which is actually unreliable, in our daily lives, and I would be happy if you could experience the warmth and bond with animals through this work, to remind you that that is not what is essentially important.

Tomokazu Sugita as Tono

My name is Tomokazu Sugita, and I will be playing the role of Tono. The charm of this work is the animals. I am sure that everyone who loves cats as well as dogs with Tono will be satisfied. No matter how turbulent the times, animals are always cute. I look forward to working with you.

Masaki Aiba as Tono

When I read the original story, I loved the warm relationship between Tono and the dog that made me smile and feel at home. I will do my best to convey the warmth of the world of "Tono to Inu" with the help of all the staff and co-stars.

Shunsuke Takeuchi as Tono

I can feel the love for dogs in this film. I have a dog myself, and I was surprised at how detailed the portrayal of the dog was, saying, "He has this kind of facial expression" or "He has this kind of attitude". I was amazed at the detail in the depiction of the dogs, such as the spirit of bushido, the consideration for his subjects, and his love for his dogs. I hope I can bring these things to life in a comical way.

＜Broadcast Information
Broadcasting will begin in October 2024.

<Introduction
Tono, who once ran through the Warring States period, showed his heroic figure as if he were a god of war. However, that glory is now long gone. He has fallen into ruin and is unable to make ends meet. He lives in a tenement house with a strange dog with a long torso and short legs. Every day is filled with "What's this? Can a dog do this? and "Can a dog do this? The slightly surreal, heartwarming "life under heaven" begins.

]]> Aina Suzuki sings and Jyakami-chan and Akiban people dance around! Anime song Bon Odori x "Jyakami-chan Drop Kick" at Kanda Myojin Noryo Matsuri was too hot! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71221/ Fri, 09 Aug 2024 03:42:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71221/

Summer means festivals! Speaking of festivals, Bon Odori is the Bon dance! So the Kanda Myojin Noryo Festival, which has become an annual summer event in Akihabara, will be held from August 9 (Fri.) to 11 (Sun.), 2024. The first day of the festival was decorated with an ani-song Bon Odori dance.

The Kanda Myojin Noryo Festival began in 2016 as a summer festival featuring traditional Bon Odori dancing and food stalls. One of the main attractions of the festival is the "Anime Song Bon Dance" held in collaboration with character content.


This year, our own "Jyakami-chan Dropkick" was going to be part of the festivities, so of course Akiba Research Institute was there to see the event!

The "Campagneur" shaved ice shop, a well-known "Jyakami-chan Dropkick" collaborator, was also set up in the precincts of the temple.


The anime song Bon Odori dance that started at around 5:00 p.m. on the 9th started with "Doraemon Ondo" (Doraemon) and "Sunshine Pikka Pikka Ondo" (Love Live! Sunshine! Sunshine!)! Sunshine!) and "Osomatsu-kun Ondo" (Osomatsu-kun). The participants, who filled the grounds of the temple, enjoyed the Bon dance to the choreography of Ukon Takafuji, a Japanese dancer who served as the main MC, and the members of the University of Tokyo Bon Dance Circle.


At this point, guests Yurie Kosakai, Ayane Takahashi, Asuka Ozaki, and Chiaki Omigawa appeared on the turret. The appearance of popular voice actors and idols only increased the excitement of the audience.
The excitement of the audience only increased with the appearance of popular voice actors and idols. (Dragon Ball Z) was played. The choreography was based on special moves from the anime, and it was impressive to see the foreign participants dancing happily.


After the audience was warmed up, Mr. Yanase, the advertising producer of "Jyakami-chan Dropkick" and Jyakami-chan Impact appeared on stage! There was a little trouble with the tail of "Jyakami-chan Impact" getting loose while he was on stage, but he managed to get up on the stage, so a commemorative photo was taken with him!

Next, a new song "Jyajin-chan Ondo" was performed with choreography. Yanase encouraged the audience by saying "If you can remember the choreography and dance well, Aina Suzuki (who plays the role of Evil God Girl and sings "Evil God Girl Ondo") might appear on stage! When Ms. Takafuji performed the choreography, the audience was quick to say, "That's impossible. ......

However, the audience was made up of well educated nerds. Once the practice began, I was surprised to see that many people were dancing at a fairly high level of reproducibility.


Seeing such a scene, Mr. Kosakai commented, "It's perfect! commented Ms. Kosakai. Aina Suzuki, dressed in a happi coat, appeared on stage as if guided by the call of "Evil God-chan~an," having received a pass! It is not often that you get to stand on a turret and sing, and it is not often that other people dance around while listening to you sing. Ms. Suzuki seemed happy to have such a rare opportunity, saying, "Thank you for giving me such a wonderful opportunity.


Yanase then took the opportunity to say, "This is the first time in the world that voice actors sing, stuffed animals dance, and fans dance! This is the first attempt of its kind in the world. Aina Suzuki sang a live "Evil Goddess Chan Ondo" to start the event. Ms. Suzuki is a talented singer who had won many folk song competitions before her debut as a voice actress. There was no way that the ondo sung by her would not be emo! While she sang with her fists firmly turned, she also included some performance elements that would enliven the audience, which she has cultivated through her live performance activities. It's as you'd expect! The audience responded to the choreography with melodic signs and "za za za za nas nas nas" poses that were typical of "Evil God Chan," and they joined in with "ah soere," "ah yosho," and "jasshidorodoro" to join in the chorus. The sense of togetherness was also tremendous.

I am sure I was not the only one who was in a trance-like state of excitement and exuberance that blew away the summer heat.


Everyone is great! Suzuki's words suggest that the finale of the anime song Bon Odori x "Evil God-chan" stage came amidst an indescribable sense of accomplishment and fulfillment.
Finally, information about the performance at "Animelo Summer Live (Anisama) 2024 -Stargazer-," an anime song festival to be held on September 1 (Sun.) at Saitama Super Arena, was announced on this occasion. It has already been announced that Aina Suzuki ( Evil God Girls: Sacrifice Summer) ,Himasa Omori (Yurine Hanazono),Miyu Kubota (Medusa),Chiaki Omigawa (Minos),Yurie Kosakai (Pekora),Liko Sasaki (Popolon) andMiharu Hanai (Rielle) will perform as "Evil God Girls: Sacrifice Summer". Riho Iida, who plays Persephone II, has been announced as an additional member.
S ince Ms. Iida, who will be appearing as a cast member of another production, was just there somewhere, everyone shouted "Rippy, congratulations! was shouted by everyone.


Bon Odori is great. I like "Jyakami-chan Drop Kick" too. It was a collaborative stage that made everyone happy.

Thesecond day of the Kanda Myojin Noryo Festival (Saturday, October 10) will feature the Chiyoda Ward Community Dance Federation, and the third day (Sunday, October 11) will feature a Bon dance performance by the Hamacho Ondo Preservation Society. Why don't you join the festival and make your summer memories!

MF Ghost" is based on a manga series by Shuichi Shigeno, which has been serialized in "Young Magazine" (Kodansha) since 2017. It is the successor to the legendary motorsports work "Initial D," which depicted the "fastest legend on public roads," and has sold more than 5.8 million copies in total.

The story is about the main character, Natsuki Katagiri, who competes in the "MFG," a race held on closed public roads. Katagiri Natsukou challenges his rivals, who drive the world's most powerful cars such as Porsche, Lamborghini, and Ferrari, to the race in an inefficient car, the Toyota 86GT. The TV anime began airing in October 2023, and the giant-killing by an inefficient machine, the powerful car racing battles, and the insert song "Eurobeat" attracted a lot of attention.

TV anime "MF Ghost" 2nd Season 2nd PV

The opening theme song for the second season of the TV anime "MF Ghost" will be "ROCK ME KISS ME feat. MOTSU" by Yu Serizawa.

The opening theme of the TV anime "MF Ghost" 2nd Season, which takes place at the fierce MFG Round 2, Lake Ashinoko GT, will be performed by Yu Serizawa, as in the 1st Season. The new song "ROCK ME KISS ME feat. MOTSU" was a big hit with "Initial D" fans and others, and the powerful tag team with MOTSU was realized again.
The song has a very fast-paced feel to it that matches the music of the film.
New artist photos of Yu Serizawa & MOTSU were also released today.

Comments

Yuu Serizawa
When I sang the opening theme for the first season last year, I was worried about how much people would accept Yu Serizawa, who is not a member of "m.o.v.e.". However, many people listened to the previous song "JUNGLE FIRE feat. MOTSU" and it gave me a lot of confidence, so I would like to show a more reliable and cool figure in the second season. JUNGLE FIRE feat. MOTSU" is a Eurobeat song that I created with Mr. Motsu in order to make those who have been supporting the team since "Initial D" think, "I miss this feeling of nostalgia! The second season of the anime will be a more serious battle, and we will get closer to the truth of each character. So "ROCK ME KISS ME feat. MOTSU" has the same nostalgia as the previous song, but it is a very good song with "emo" in its intensity!
I want people to think "MF Ghost" is Yu Serizawa! Please listen to this song!

MOTSU
The first song of the Eurobeat album, which I performed together with Seriko.
I'm sure you're worried that I've already played all the bullets. I have prepared such a machine gun for those of you who are worried that "we've already shot all the bullets.
We are ready to go beyond the limits of what is possible when "MF Ghost" goes as far as it goes.
MF Ghost" is not an anime to sit back and watch. It is an anime that you wear all over your body and run.
The whole team has been working hard to polish the music that will fit in perfectly with that scene.
I believe we can share the joy of presenting it here with you all!

]]> The poster visual for the movie "VOLTES V LEGACY" is released! The "Legacy" inherited from the original anime, the "Sky Sword V Slash", which transcends time and comes back to life with great power! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71187/ Thu, 08 Aug 2024 20:05:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71187/
Watch "Super Electromagnetic Machine Voltes V" on

A poster visual from the movie "Voltes V Legacy," which will be released on Friday, October 18, 2024, has been unveiled.

The TV series "VOLTES V LEGACY" is a live-action remake of the animated TV series "Super Electromagnetic Machine Voltes V" by a Filipino production team. New scenes have been added and the quality of the CG, which was highly acclaimed, has been further improved.

⇒The Japanese subtitled trailer of the live-action remake "Voltes V" is now available! After 45 years, the live-action version of the anime "Super Electromagnetic Machine Voltes V" is now being prepared for release in Japan.

The poster visual, designed by Yoromoa Oshima and Naochika Morishita, shows the image of Vortez V performing the special move "Sky Sword V Slash" and the logo, which inherits the genes of the original anime, leaving a strong impression.

Design: Yoromoa Oshima x Illustration: Naochika Morishita
The poster visual combines the nostalgia of the original anime with the dynamism of the live-action version of VOLTES V. It is so intricate and detailed that it looks as if it is about to start moving!

The image is so precisely rendered that it looks as if it could start moving at any moment, and the heavy steel of the figure of Voltes V is about to perform the "Sky Sword V Slash" in an attempt to defeat its enemies.


With the Voltes V in the center, the five members of the Voltes Team, including the main character Steve, the Boazan aliens including Prince Zardoz, the Bolt Machine before it merges with the Voltes V, the Big Falcon at its base, the enemy flagship Skaarruk, and the Beast Fighter, its war machine, are all on display, The illustration was created to capture the momentum of this work, with a full array of characters and mecha. The frame surrounding the illustration is composed of the key colors of VOLTES V, and the scuffing, like a box of toys cherished over the years, represents the trajectory of the live-action version of the film after a half-century.

The logo, which was unveiled at the same time, was inspired by the logo used for the eye-catchers (the direction before and after the airing of commercials) of the original anime, but evolved into a design like that of Voltes V with modern elements added by computer graphics.

The poster visual is full of "love for VOLTES V" and conveys the charm of the film, while showing "respect for the original work" that the Philippine production team was particular about in every detail.

The design is by Yomia Oshima, who has designed graphics for films such as "Shoplifters," "Midsummer," and "Look Back," as well as exhibition publicity materials and books. The illustrations are by Naochika Morishita, who has created numerous package illustrations for Gunpla and trading card illustrations for robotics works. Comments from both artists have also been received.

Design: Yoromoa Oshima Comment


With the help of Naochika Morishita's perfect Voltes drawing, I tried to catch the huge "V" full of love that flew in from the Philippines.

Illustration by Naochika Morishita Comment


I put my heart and soul into this illustration to please the fans of VOLTES V.
Please enjoy it while pulling it back to look at the whole picture, or leaning closer to look at the details!

Director Keiichiro Kawaguchi

I have worked on a number of works in the past, but this is the first time I have been able to push my taste so far to the fullest!
I present this work to hero fans, Nichiasa fans, and hobby anime fans around the world!
Keiichiro Kawaguchi

Series Composition: Atsuhiro Tomioka
An unexpected miracle happened. Just as I was finishing the script for this work, I received an offer from the original Sentai.
This was another miracle brought about by "kizuna" (bond).
When I was exposed to this original work and the overflowing love for Sentai and toys, my first thought was that it would be a shame to turn it into a mere parody.
So, I decided to focus on "how to make it authentic" and make it unique in the anime adaptation.
We asked people associated with the Gohonke to join us in this project, and from there, ties grew stronger, and we were able to put together a lineup that would make any fan grin.
We hope you enjoy the attention to detail.


Main Character Design / Chief Animation Director Shuji Maruyama

Prop, Mecha and Suit Design: Yoshitaka Taniguchi

Monster Design Ryosuke Shibuya
Congratulations on the anime adaptation!
I designed the monster and other parts of the "evil organization, Secret Society Zetsuender," which were depicted in fragments in the original work!
I was not so much conscious of the fact that it was an anime, but rather I drew it as if it were a special effects show!
I would be grateful if I could play a role in the world of the original work and the anime. ！！！！
I would appreciate it if I could play a part in the world of the original and the anime. ！！！！！！！！

Monster Designer: Wataru Inada
I am Inada Wataru, a monster designer.
The director gave me the happy order, "Don't simplify the details, but make it cool without hesitation," and I had a lot of fun designing it!
Basically, I played the role of a yara-yara, but I hope you will pay attention to the monster design that I put a lot of effort into!

Transformation Motion Supervisor Teruaki Ogawa
When I was first approached, I was very pleased, but as I thought about the actual poses, I was puzzled at what I had undertaken. I had been in charge of the movements of various game characters in the past, but this was the first time for me to think about the transformation and special move poses of all the characters in the game. Indeed, when I looked back at the transformation poses I had done in the past, they were surprisingly simple. The craftsmanship of our predecessors in creating individuality while stripping away the elements of movement to make them easy to imitate. With renewed respect in my heart, I managed to finish the project. I am so happy to hear that these characters will be brought to life by my colleagues who know them so well. Nothing could make me happier. Another one of my masterpieces has been added to my collection. I hope you enjoy it.

Nobuhiro Suzumura, Motion Director of Transformation
I directed the transformations of Kizuna Red and the other heroes in the film.
I was asked to create an animated but live-action-like transformation, so I was very excited to work on the storyboards.
I hope you enjoy this new and cool transformation scene, which is different from motion-capture, in that it was created from live-action footage.
I am also looking forward to the broadcast.

Yoshi Inagaki as Hydra Arvoln

When I read it, I couldn't stop laughing and turning the pages!
It is a story of a hero who seems to appear on Sunday mornings, meeting friends and having adventures in a different world, with lots of laughter, tears, and passionate friendships.
Idra, the character I am playing, is a comedian in this story, and it has been a constant challenge for me! The recording was always fun...! LOL!

The recording studio was a lot of fun, and it was so cheerful that there was always someone talking!
Tertina is the third princess with a certain power.
I could go on and on about her purpose, her personality, her interactions with Rozi, and her other charms!
Please look forward to the anime airing!
If you can't wait, check out the original! LOL!

Tomotaka Ohno as Rozzie Mist

My name is Tomotaka Ohno and I will be playing the role of Rosie Mist.

Enako, who has transcended the boundaries of cosplayers and boasts immense popularity on TV, distribution, and in various other fields, finally appeared in the 20th issue!

The theme of the photo shoot was "If it's raining and you can't have a vacation during your summer vacation, have fun at home!

There will be a signed clear card, double-sided BIG poster and limited QUO card for all applicants!

Enako's comment

I've been saying "I wish I could do the 20th cover (laugh)," but I never thought it would really happen...! The shoot was during the rainy season, and I have had several sad experiences in the past when I tried to do a summery shoot... so during this shoot I was thinking, "What a genius theme! I was impressed! It's a theme I've never done before. I hope you enjoy the slightly surreal feeling of having a float in the house, being depressed, etc. (laughs)."

The PS4 (download only) and PS5 (package and download) versions of Princess Maker 2 Regeneration were released today (August 8, 2024). A launch trailer was released to commemorate the event.

PS4/PS5 Launch Trailer Released

In "Princess Maker 2," you, as a father, are in charge of your daughter's development by managing her schedule of studies and part-time jobs. However, sometimes unexpected encounters come your way. You guide your daughter, but it is the unexpected encounters that truly define her life.

▲ Encounters with rivals will encourage your daughter's growth.

▲Returning an egg to a genie? But it was a precious ring given to her by her father...

Princess Maker 2

Princess Maker 2" is a simulation-type child-rearing game in which players experience being a father to a daughter given to them by a star.
You raise your daughter for 8 years, from the age of 10 to 18. Your daughter grows up to be an adult through various experiences in the game. The girl's dream is to become a princess, but depending on how you raise her, a thousand different futures await her. Now, what kind of dream will you weave with this girl...?

Schedule

Princess Maker 2 celebrates its 30th anniversary this year.

This year marks the 30th anniversary of the first "Princess Maker 2" (PC-98 version), which was released in 1993.
We hope you will experience the new and improved Princess Maker 2 on its 30th anniversary.

Graphics have been redrawn.

This title is based on "Princess Maker 2 Refined" released in 2004, but the most important graphics were redrawn by Takami Akai with a taste close to that of the original PC-98 version. In addition, the graphics are drawn in a higher resolution to match the modern gaming environment, and the quality has been enhanced with more attention to detail.

Vacation Summer Sea

Additional Animation

Added an opening animation produced by Yonago Gainax. The animation by the team led by Takami Akai gives the newly "father" player a sense of the future with his "daughter".

▲A rival also appears in the animation.

[Knowing your daughter's condition is the first step in parenting.

This work is a nurturing simulation, so it is important to always know the status of your daughter and make the most of it in raising her.
Therefore, "Regeneration" constantly displays the parameters for understanding the status of your daughter, allowing you to check her condition at a glance. Check what you need to do for your daughter's future and raise her well.

Takami Akai commented.

I sincerely appreciate that "Princess Maker 2," which was born 30 years ago, is still adored by many people and that a new version is now available. This time, we have achieved the graphic renewal that we have wanted to do for a long time! I hope you enjoy the newly redrawn vacation and the ending.

Takami Akai

Born in 1961. While a student at Osaka University of Arts, he made his debut in the DAICON III opening animation. As an early member of GAINAX Corporation, he has worked on animation, special effects, games, and events. Representative works: "Princess Maker" series, "Gurren Lagann", "Dai Tokusatsu Negiman".

Too Many Losing Heroines!" The voice actress known for her roles as Anna Hachinami, Machikane Tannhoysa in "Uma Musume Pretty Derby" and Towa in "One Room, Normal Sunshine, With Tenshi."

The title of the photo book is "Hatsuyoi," which was shot under the theme of "cocktail words" selected by Ms. Tono, who loves to drink. The title, which was Tono's own idea, is pure and evocative of "first love," but at the same time it also evokes an adult charm that makes one feel a little nervous, a word that perfectly fits the image of Tono herself in this photo book.

The cover comes in four patterns!

There are four types of covers: standard edition, Infosquare limited edition, Amazon limited edition, and digital edition. The cover is a selection of cuts based on various cocktail words, such as "XYZ" = "Yours forever," "Gulf Stream" = "Resort Mood," and "Angel Kiss" = "I'm in love with you. .......

Beko Nakano was cosplaying as Ubel from "Souei no Freelen" at the One Fest. The costume was made off-the-shelf, but she adjusted it to fit her body to the very last possible moment. I like the length of her legs, so I wanted to make them look longer and add a coolness to her pose with the spear," she said. The spear was made by the artist. The costume and the weapon, which is also the character's personality, were also a focus of the artist's attention.

]]> Castlevania, the Gothic Horror Masterpiece, Comes to Dead by Daylight! Collaboration chapters to be released on August 28th! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71173/ Tue, 06 Aug 2024 17:06:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71173/

The asymmetrical competitive multiplayer horror game "Dead by Daylight" will feature Castlevania, Japan's most famous Gothic horror masterpiece.

Starting today, Wednesday, August 7, 2024, at midnight, the collaborative chapter "Dead by Daylight: Castlevania" will begin a limited-time public test build (PTB) on Steam. In this chapter, the new killer Dracula and the new survivor Trevor Belmont are lured into a foggy forest.

Dead by Daylight: Castlevania will be released on Steam, PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Epic Games Store, Windows Store, and Nintendo Switch on Wednesday, August 28, 2024.

■Official Trailer

Castlevania, an immortal masterpiece that will go down in gaming history.


The history of video games cannot be told without Castlevania, one of Konami Digital Entertainment's most popular series, which was first released on the NES in 1986, followed by the NES Disk System in 1987, and has remained popular ever since. The "Dracula" series is a timeless classic about vampires that has long held its own in the video game industry.

For many, including the team behind "Dead by Daylight," the original 8-bit Castlevania was a pioneer in the horror game genre. Since then, numerous sequel titles, a hit animated series, and a worldview built over the decades have kept Castlevania at the top of the horror world, and now it is finally coming to "Dead by Daylight".

Dracula's power as the new killer is closely linked to his castle, which the entity has also drawn into the Foggy Forest. When Dracula appears as a killer on an existing map, players will see a disturbing castle rising on the map's horizon. The power given to the lord of the castle would be so terrifying that it would make even the most seasoned survivor's blood boil....

[Cunning as a wolf, agile as a bat. The killer "Dracula" sneaks up on you while changing form...]

Dracula, from Castlevania, is the first vampire killer in the misty forests of Dead by Daylight. He is also the first to possess the shapeshifter ability to transform into various forms. With dignity and dignity following him and an unquenchable thirst for blood, Dracula looks down on humans, and the Entity's realm will be the perfect hunting ground for him in the dark of night.

The shapeshifter's ability to transform into various forms makes him adept at tracking survivors. In his "vampire" form, he can stalk his prey and conjure up bone-chilling flames. In its bat form, it will stalk silently like a shadow, closing the gap between it and the survivor at a moment's notice. And in wolf form, he is a relentless hunter, using his keen sense of smell to sniff out fresh blood.

Dave Richard, Senior Creative Director of "Dead by Daylight," had the following to say about the chapter: "This chapter is a great addition to the Dracula series of games, and we are thrilled to be working with Dracula.

"With this chapter, our goal was to create a gameplay experience that would allow Dracula to smoothly transform himself. I still remember the first time I played one of my favorite games, 'Castlevania X: Nocturne Under the Moon,' and I was impressed by its ability to transform into different forms. I'm thrilled that the day has come for players to play Dracula in the world of Dead by Daylight."

[Trevor Belmondo, a survivor whose presence is unique to the Belmondo clan

The Belmondo family has suffered for generations between the forces of darkness and humanity, banished and even cursed, and new survivor Trevor Belmondo is a descendant of the Belmondo family. As a challenger to the realm of the Entity, perhaps no one is more deserving than Trevor.

First introduced in 1989's "The Legend of Castlevania," Trevor is hardly the tough type in the Belmondo clan, but his unique abilities set him apart from the other characters. His unique ability to seek out allies and teamwork, his psychic abilities, and his unique value to the Belmondo clan will help the team.

Dead by Daylight: Castlevania will be available on Steam, PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Epic Games Store, Windows Store, and Nintendo Switch on Wednesday, August 28, 2024.

Castlevania.

More than 40 years ago, in 1986, Konami released the action adventure game "Castlevania. The story centers on the adventures of the Belmondo clan, vampire hunters, as they attempt to exterminate Dracula, who has returned to threaten the balance of the world with the resurrection of darkness. The story is characterized by a complex intertwining of various characters, items, mythological anecdotes, and other lore. The game is also known for its challenging side-scrolling platform gameplay and atmospheric visuals, which have earned it critical acclaim and a dedicated fan base. As a result, it has influenced countless titles and is now expanding its legacy into other areas such as manga and anime series.

Dead by Daylight

Behaviour Interactive's "Dead by Daylight" is a 4-on-1 asymmetrical online multiplayer horror game. The dark fantasy game, based on the concept of "survival hide-and-seek," has surpassed 60 million players. It has grown into a game that shocks the entire world. Since its launch in 2016, the game has collaborated with a series of legendary TV, film, and video game productions. The game features a different experience for each match, creating a worldview where "masterpieces of horror" are gathered and revisited.

]]> PLAMAX MF-75 minimum factory: The diorama can be easily completed by taking advantage of the coloring of the molding! Voice actor Yasuyuki Tai took on the challenge of creating a diorama of the "PLAMAX MF-75 minimum factory aircraft nose collection: Akira Izumino with Alphonse! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71177/ Tue, 06 Aug 2024 00:30:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71177/

When you are a working adult, you tend to have a lot of plastic models piled up in your busy life. ...... In this series, Yasuyuki Tai, a voice actor who loves robots and plastic models, takes on the challenge of building plastic models on your behalf!

The concept is "even busy working people can make it this far on their weekends off! The only two rules of this article are that the model must be finished in its unassembled state and that you can only spend one or two days building it! Read this series, and you will surely find the plastic model you want to build.

Taiyuki's Weekend Plastic Model Vol. 95 PLAMAX MF-75 minimum factory Neck Collection: Akira Izumino with Alphonse

This time, we would like to introduce "Akira Izumino with Alphonse" from "Mobile Police PATLABOR" from the "PLAMAX minimum factory nose collection series" which has been developed in a powerful 1/20 scale volume.

As the name "Kikenkou Collection" suggests, this series has mainly focused on the noses of the Valkyries that appeared in the "Macross" series, but this time the bust of Alphonse from "Patlabor" has been made into a kit. It is a nice configuration that can be displayed side by side with the passenger, Akira Izumino.

The package illustration is by Hideki Tenjin. The blue sky peeking through the hangar ceiling is also vivid, and Officer Izumi and Alphonse in the foreground are beautifully and refreshingly illuminated.

Since this kit requires glue, we will skip the unassembled example this time and show you an example of the kit with a little work added, as much as you can do in two days over the weekend.

The kit is assembled straight and painted with some of the colors, and the included water-transfer decals are applied. Since the decals need time to dry, this is the maximum amount of work that could be completed in a weekend.

First, here is an image from the opposite side of the box illustration. By looking at Alphonse through the scaffold, the volume of his shoulders and chest are emphasized, creating a powerful display model.

The scaffolding, including the handrails, is a perfect reproduction of the scaffolding used in the film. In fact, the back side of the scaffold is also packed with details. The steel frame supporting the scaffold is connected to the base of the bust of Alphonse. As a display, it is a nice arrangement.

The main painting is as follows.

The white part is almost left as molded color. Only the back of Alphonse's head was glued and covered the stain with Gaia Color Pure White because I stained it when I erased the mismatch.

After that, I smeared it with GSI Creos Weatherization Color Multi-Gray. The black color was painted with Gaia Color EX Black because I felt it was a little bright as it was molded.

The joint covers were left painted with Gaia Color Mecasurf Heavy. The scaffolds and pedestals were painted with a solid coat of bluish gray, which I had previously toned for another kit.

After painting, Alphonse was clear coated with semi-gloss. The pedestal was stained with silver dry brush and Tamiya Weathering Master's "soot" and "rust" and coated with matte finish.

Before setting up Akira Izumino, this time from an angle similar to the package illustration. It is interesting to look at it from either angle. The point of this angle is the mechanical part of the left shoulder.

Around the head. As mentioned above, only the back of the head was painted for the purpose of eliminating the joints, but the other white and gray parts were left unpainted. The forehead, goggles, and HUD parts were painted with clear color, as colorless clear parts are included in the kit. Decal of "ALPHONSE" is on the chest.

View from the right side. The head may look a little small in relation to the body, but I think this is a good balance for the Reaver's character. It is interesting to check the balance between the body and the head, as each manufacturer and kit has its own approach.

Left side. The two antennas extending from the collar are delicate, which is only possible with this size. Be careful when assembling and transporting them.

You can also see the five round holes at the temples (so-called "buti" holes) by getting closer, and they are also well minus-molded. The "AV-98 INGRAM" decal is also on the radar portion. The kit's size also makes it a very attractive model.

The actuators that support the head were painted with solid black metallic paint, then silver sheets were applied to the parts that expand and contract, and the mesh pipe parts were dry brushed with silver paint. The mesh pipes were dry brushed with silver. Although the joints are covered by the joint covers, just modifying the visible parts is enough to add atmosphere to the figure.

The rectangular window on the chest is made of colorless clear parts glued as it is. Only the tops of the black parts of the chest are water-transfer decals. Since there is a lot of detail here, you may paint the ▲ part black without applying decals.

The mark on the chest is a gold-plated part. It is a nice accent that is very eye-catching. The inside of the ducts on both sides are also smeared with weathering color multi-gray. I think it would be better to smear the ducts with something to make them look more realistic. The blinker part was painted with clear orange because the kit is colorless and transparent. Since the part where the indicator is to be installed is in the depression of the black part, if it is installed as it is, the color will be dark and subdued. Therefore, I put a silver sheet on the back side of the clear parts to reflect the light and make it look brighter.

For the mechanical part of the left shoulder, I wanted to change the texture of the material between the inner movable part and the framed part, so I painted it with different metallic paints. It is only a fantasy that the material might be different depending on the role, but I think it will give a reason to paint it in different colors.

The waist, the license plate, the "Shinohara Heavy Industries" sign above it, and the black lines are also water-transfer decals. The blinkers were clear colorless parts, so I painted them clear orange. The winch was painted silver. There is a line of alignment here when seen from the front, but it is not noticeable when the scaffold is attached, so it is one way of thinking not to worry about it.

The back of the head has a left-right alignment line, but I sanded it after gluing and covered it with pure white to hide the sanding stains.

In fact, the radar part of the left ear also had a left-right alignment line, but I was able to remove the line without staining it by filing it cleanly, so I did not follow up with Pure White. If the back of the head had been carefully filed with a new file, there would have been no need to follow up with paint.

The back also has its place. Decal of "Metropolitan Police Department"!　There is a notch in the upper center of the black duct in the lower half of the body.

Clear red parts are included for the shoulder patrol lights. There are also parts for the rotating lights inside. This is another detail that was made possible by the 1/20 scale of the model.

Decals are also attached to the shoulder armor. The belt part of the connection to the upper arm is painted with a brush.

Protective parts are attached to the upper arm's detached connection. The inside of the shoulder armor will be more than half hidden once completed, but the inside is also sculpted, so you can consider how much you want to paint.

Alphonse looking over the railing. You can try painting the clear parts with oil-based markers such as Mackey.

The scaffold part is a little unstable if not glued, but it can be removed if not glued.

There are five round molds on the pedestal as well. Here too, Tamiya Weathering Master is rubbed on.

Another main character of this kit, Akira Izumino. The parts are skillfully divided, and although gluing is required, there is no need to erase the joints, making it easy to paint the different parts. Water-transfer decals are provided for the eyes, shoulder patches, and chest rank insignia. For the other parts, I tried to paint with a brush, even though I was not familiar with this method!

The kit is completely white as is, so I wanted to paint it if possible.

The figure can stand on its own with a very close balance, but it is extremely unstable, so a stand part like this is also provided. If you glue the soles to this board, you can make the kit stand stably like a board game board. This is a nice touch.

A shot from an angle similar to the package illustration. The background is uniformly black, but it might be nice to place a photo of something similar behind it or project it on a monitor.

Alphonse's gentle expression and Akira Izumino's back view of him.

I changed the angle of view.

Akira Izumino asking for a commemorative photo with Alphonse from the scaffold across the street.

The scaffold has non-slip details on the feet. There is a detail that seems to be movable at the connecting part, but it is fixed in the kit. In the real model, the part on the right side of the fountain is probably raised up.

Looking into the back, there are details such as fluorescent lights, air ducts, and wiring. The wiring and fluorescent light parts are slightly painted. Since the back side of the scaffold is unlikely to be well cleaned, I used GSI Creos' weathering color "Grand Brown" to express the slightly dirty condition of the scaffold. How does it look?

You can't see this part unless you look into it very carefully, but it looks much more realistic if you pay close attention to it.

So, that's my review of the "PLAMAX MF-75 minimum factory aircraft nose collection: Akira Izumino with Alphonse". During the two days of work, painting Akira Izumino and attaching the decals may have taken the most time. I also used a toothpick for detailed painting. The position of the decals on the eyes was quite a problem, as the angle and the distance between the eyes made the character look different, so I had to redo the decals several times. I have spare decals for the eyes, so I don't have to worry even if I made some mistakes.

In the past, I sometimes wondered about diorama examples, "Why fix a plastic model that moves so well? However, as I built various plastic models and saw many works, I came to think that dioramas are also good. It is sometimes difficult to make a diorama or vignette (small diorama) from scratch. However, with this kit, just by assembling it and making a few modifications, you can create a finished product that is full of realism.

It is a kit that is fun to discover while assembling, and fun to look at from various angles even after completion.

See you soon!

]]> Netflix's "Rising Impact" Genius Golfers' Pride Clashes in Season 2 Trailer! [VIDEO. https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71178/ Mon, 05 Aug 2024 23:48:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71178/
Watch The Rising Impact Season 1 online

Season 2 of the Netflix series "Rising Impact" will be exclusively available today, Tuesday, August 6, 2024. In conjunction with this, a trailer for Season 2 has been released.

The Netflix series "Rising Impact" is an anime adaptation of the "legendary comic" written by the author of "The Seven Deadly Sins" and "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse," Hisashi Suzuki. Based on a passionate golf manga serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump, it depicts battles that transcend common sense between golfers with a special talent, or "gift. The main character, Gawain Nanami, enrolls in the prestigious golf school Camelot Academy, where he and his unique rivals engage in friendly competition to become the world's best professional golfer.

The anime adaptation will be directed by Hittoshi Namba ("Golden Kamui (season 1-3)"), with series composition and script by Rikei Tsuchiya ("MAJOR"), character design by Kiyotaka Oshiyama of Studio DURIAN ("Look Back"), and music by Katsu Yokoyama ("Weak Mushi Pedal"), Lay-duce ("Fate/Grand Order: First Order") is handling animation production, and the team has a solid lineup to tackle the story that has captivated Heisei Jump fans.

In Season 1, Gawain, who had hit a wall and improved his skills through friendly competition with his rivals, successfully qualified for the last slot in the "Camelot Cup". In Season 2, the "Camelot Cup," which is arguably the most exciting story in the original series, has finally begun, and Gawain and the other genius golfers are aiming for the top of the world.


In the video released today, we see the players representing Japan, England, the U.S., and Camelot Academy in a heated competition to win the title of "World No. 1" and put their pride on the line.

From Season 2, "the strongest players" such as Tristan Lyonesse (voice: Takuya Eguchi), the ace of the British school, and Questar Phoenix (voice: Yuki Kaji), the ace of the American school, who won the Camelot Cup the previous year and is said to be the highest level player in the world, will appear. The "best players" appeared on stage. Tristan has the gift of being able to make a sure shot 120 yards to the cup in one stroke, while Questar has the gift of being able to catch the ball dead center and make it go farther than Gawain. Witnessing these transcendent powers, Gawain becomes acutely aware of the strength of the world. Gawain confronts his own weak heart and confronts the world's strongest player together with his best friend Lancelot Norman (voice: Yumiri Hanamori), who is called a "putting genius," and his rivals from the Japanese school.
In the last part of the movie, we see a different Gawain after his "awakening". What in the world has happened to Gawain? And who will stand at the pinnacle of the battle?　We hope you will also pay attention to this human drama filled with emotion and excitement as these young people, fascinated by the game of golf, work hard, rise to the top, and reach for the pinnacle.

The drama and passionate battles between Gawain and his rivals as they challenge the world to reach the top of the golf world will send a shot of excitement throughout Japan and the world!

]]> From "Masked Rider Geats", the sword "Takehide" of approximately 92cm in length when retracted, and the upgraded Oneness Raise Buckle appeared! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71145/ Mon, 05 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71145/

Premium Bandai" started accepting pre-orders for "PREMIUM DX Take-Blade" and "PREMIUM DX Memorial Oneness Raise Buckle" on Monday, August 5, 2024.

The "Bu-Blade," the weapon of the Masked Rider Tycoon Bujin Sword that appears in "Masked Rider Ghetsu," and the Masked Rider Ghetsu Oneness from the movie "Masked Rider Ghetsu: 4 Aces and a Black Fox" are now available at Premium Bandai.


PREMIUM DX Takebaidan



In the "Masked Rider Geets" movie, Kagekazu Sakurai (played by Ruga Sato) transforms into the "Masked Rider Tycoon Bujin Sword" using the "Takehide" weapon.


The figure is sculpted in a big size (approx. 92cm), referring to the proportions of the Japanese sword in the play. The black portion of the blade has been sculpted with a grainy finish to recreate a leather-like texture. The base of the sword is made of die-cast metal to give it a sense of weight. The scabbard has been carefully designed to hide the screw holes. The silver and metallic green parts are mostly painted for a luxurious finish.



A magnetic sensor mounted on the blade automatically activates individual sound effects in response to sword drawing and sheathing, allowing the reproduction of the action from the play without any special movements. In addition, the handle is equipped with a dialogue button and a slash button. The sound activated by the slash button includes not only the normal slash sound, but also the sound of Tycoon Bujin Boost striking Geats IX with a retractable blade. Also included are the special move standby and special move sounds with additional sound effects from the play. With this single product, you can enjoy a series of special move play.


The dialogue button contains about 30 voices of Kagekazu Sakurai. Many of the voices are related to the blades, allowing you to enjoy more in-depth impersonation of the character.

PREMIUM DX Memory Oneness Raise Buckle


In the movie "Masked Rider Ghetsu: 4 Aces and a Black Fox," Hidetoshi Ukiyo (played by Hideyoshi Jian) inherited the thoughts of his friends and obtained the "Oneness Raise Buckle," which is now available in a Memorial Edition with updated appearance and voice.


The set includes the "Memorial Oneness Raise Buckle" and the Ride Chemistry Trekker "Masked Rider Geatsu (Oneness ver.)" as in the DX version, as well as a Legend parallel of the Ride Chemistry Trekker "Masked Rider Geatsu (Oneness ver.)" which is exclusive to this product.



It also includes a large amount of cast voices for nine characters. In addition to the seven major riders, including Hidetoshi Ukise (including the split Hidetoshi), Keiwa Sakurai (played by Ruga Sato), Michinaga Azuma (played by Kazuto Mokudai), Nene Kurama (played by Yumuna Hoshino), Win Haruke (played by Tsubasa Sakiyama), Sae Ganaha (played by Rina Onuki), and the first rider to be included in a toy, Kazuto Tanba (played by Hideki Kurauchi), Tsumuri (played by Shin Aoshima) and Jean (played by Shin Suzuki), The voice of Tsumuri (played by Shin Aoshima) and Jean (played by Fuku Suzuki) are also included.


In addition, the body color, which was mainly molded in the DX version, is now mostly painted in heavy metallic red, giving the figure a new, high-class appearance. A newly sculpted voice activation button and a switch on the back side have been added to allow smooth activation of the rich voice recording.

We start again with another event announcement!

From August 10 (Sat.) to 14 (Wed.), 2024, an event "Showa Enthusiastic Retro Gacha Gacha Exhibition in Kyoto" will be held at AEON MALL Kyoto in Kyoto, Japan, displaying 3,000 items from the collection. Admission is free, but there are some paid sections! We plan to show you a deeper world there. Admission is available with the purchase of an admission ticket (500 yen (tax included)) with an original badge produced from the cosmos mounts of the time. For those who wish to collect the full collection of badges, limited vending machines will also be available to sell the original Cosmos products.

In addition, Kinkeshi and my books from those days will be on sale, and a gacha talk show will be held at 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday the 13th, and many other events will be held.

In addition, a "Capsule Toy Gacha Talk Show" will be held on Monday the 12th at 1:30 pm at Loft One Plus West in Umeda, Osaka, on short notice! We are planning to welcome Mr. Hirohito Goto, a theater wunderkind and gacha maniac, to deliver a maniacal talk at full throttle. The first 30 people to purchase tickets will receive a free Cosmos superhero "Rat Man" PVC doll by Cogito Chemical, who will also be at the event. For those who cannot come to the event, tickets for delivery are also available! There will also be a special present by lottery, so don't delay!

What's more, what's more! On August 25 (Sun), she will appear in a talk show at the "Dream Capsule Midsummer Grand Thanksgiving Festival" at the Grand Canyon Plaza in Sunshine City Sakae in Sakae, Nagoya. There will also be a mini live performance by former SKE, Jurina Matsui, which is sure to be a lot of fun! Please come and meet her! Check my SNS for more details!

I'm sorry for the long preamble, but I'll be digging deep into the most exquisite capsule toys again this time!

Nan's Saddle Cover, Turlin International, 4 types, 400 yen


At first glance, I wondered what the "saddle cover" was, but it turns out to be the "naan saddle cover" served at curry restaurants. It's pretty amazing that there are four kinds of lineups with that one shot.

First, check out the mini-book! The curry store owner smiles and raises his index finger. He says, "I thought of this! What do you think? It's funny. And there's the saddle up on the wall! The saddle is up there, and it has a big impact. The catchphrase, "A bicycle marker that is hard to distinguish from others," is also excellent.

If you unfold the folded nan that the capsule is squeezed into and put it over the saddle, ......, this shape is just nan! It spreads out so deliciously! What a time to be convinced!

On the contrary, it will stand out and the saddle will be stolen! Please be very careful when using it.

Plain Nan

If you spread it out, it becomes a cover of about 34 cm. This is the size of naan that you would normally find on a set menu. The slight charring gives it a nice flavor. The bulge of the saddle gives the naan a softness that is hard to resist.

Naan with Tandoori Chicken

Dawn and tandoori in the middle. I feel kind of uncomfortable sitting on this. My butt won't get sticky, though.

Nan with Sag Seafood Curry

Vegetable curry roux is attached to the tip of the naan, and the color is so GOOD that you may want to eat it at any moment.

Naan with Butter Chicken Curry

This is a classic naan curry! Butter chicken curry roux is sticky on the tip of the naan. It is a perfect match for the saddle.

This is exactly the kind of item you want people who see it for the first time to say, "Is this naan? It is also interesting to note that this item is starting to get a lot of buzz on social networking sites. How many times do I have to say it?

Okame Natto Ball Chain Mascot Vol. 2 - Ken Elephant - 400 yen, 4 kinds in total


Eight months have passed since the release of the first "Okame-natto Ball Chain Mascot" in November 2023. The second bullet mascot has now been released with our main product, tofu, in tow.

Speaking of KenEle, the booklet is not to be called a miniature, which is an excellent read, and we will study it there again this time. The history of the Okame mark and the changes in its design are summarized in detail, and it seems that the adorable "Kokame-chan" has appeared since 2022. I see!

Okame natto (fermented soybeans), very small grain cup 3

We always have this in our refrigerator. The amount is just right, and since it can be stirred as is, it doesn't stain the plate. It is a convenient and easy-to-use 3-pack type. These miniatures are also very well made. It comes with a ball chain, so you can hang it anywhere you like.

Okame Natto Mellow Umami Mini 3

The mustard and mild kelp dashi are also miniatures and hang from the chain, which is really cute. Three natto containers are packed together in such a small package. It is very impressive.

Okame Tofu Kinu Fujin

A long-selling product that has been on the market for 20 years. The silken tofu is smooth and melt-in-your-mouth, and is probably the best cold tofu to eat this time of year. The Okame mark on the acrylic charm has a QR code! Read the QR code and you can learn about the particulars of tofu production. This is a must-have!

Okame Tofu Momen Mini 3

This item also comes with an acrylic charm with a QR code. The rich taste of cotton (momen) tofu is said to be full of the flavor of soybeans. The green package is easy on the eyes. The mini packages are easy to use. We love using this one too.

Both of these capsule toys are based on food, but their uses are completely different, and I cannot help but feel the depth of capsule toys. I would like to continue to pay attention to interesting food-related gacha from now on.

So, with a flexible mind, I'm off to go on another capsule toy patrol!

Abaren-san hakarenai" was serialized in "Shonen Jump +" until 2023, and the total number of views exceeded 180 million. A total of 1.4 million copies of the book have been sold, and a TV anime was broadcast in 2022. 17 volumes of the Shueisha Jump Comics manga of the same title are currently on sale (total number of views and total number of copies sold as of August 2024).


Production of "Abaren-san hakarenai season2," the second season of the TV anime, has now been decided.

In conjunction with the announcement of the decision to produce the second season, a teaser visual for the second season was released, depicting Abaren-san and Raidou-kun on their way to school. The two are "holding" each other on their shoulders and are making a "2" with their fingers.


In addition, a teaser PV for the second season was also released.
In the PV, we can see Mr. Abaren and Mr. Raidou, who have moved up to the second grade and are now sitting next to each other again, and Ishikawa and Sato, who have been in the same class since the first grade. The PV also depicts the activities of Mr. Oshiro, who is now in the same class as his classmates, and Mr. Momohara, who has become the homeroom teacher of the new class. The distance between Mr. Abaren and Mr. Raidou, who have started dating, seems to be closer than in the first season, but there are sometimes scenes where they are not "touching" ......?　The "close contact" scenes that have been enhanced?　Expectations are high for this coming-of-age romantic comedy.

In addition, the original author, Asato Mizu, has commented to congratulate the decision to produce the second season.

In addition, the introduction of the second season and character introductions for Reina Abaren (cv. Inori Minase) and Raido (cv. Takuatsu Terashima) have been released. The official website has also been renewed, so be sure to check it out.

From the popular smartphone RPG "Fate/Grand Order" comes a 1/7th scale figure of the Assassin class servant "Kama" in her final second coming!

Her seductive body, sensational posing, and the glamorous smile she turns toward us are truly a demon king who corrupts those who look at her.

The vivid coloring of her limbs shines through the clear parts, giving the impression that she is burning from the inside out.

Her impressive white hair has a strong presence with shaded gradation expression and pearl painting, and the inside is fantastic with a vivid universe.

The delicate modeling is also a highlight, with glittering ornaments and ribbons reminiscent of a girl you have seen somewhere before.
In addition, since the body and pedestal are removable, the figure can be freely displayed and enjoyed from various angles.

The base of the pedestal can also be decorated with electric lights (sold separately) to bring the figure closer to the illustration of the final reincarnation!

Introduction

Humanity cannot use magic without chanting.
However, there is a girl who has made the impossible possible.
She is Monica Everett, the "Witch of Silence," one of the top seven sorceresses in the Kingdom of Lydir.
She is a young genius who created the first chantless magic in history.
However...
She is extremely shy and has a fear of strangers, so she retreats deep into the mountains with her black cat, and quietly devotes herself to the study of magic, surrounded by her books of mathematical formulas.
She is visited by Lewis Miller, the "wizard of boundaries," a colleague of the Seven Wise Men.
She is perplexed, but Lewis tells her that he has a royal mission for her.
It was a top-secret mission to infiltrate a prestigious school for aristocrats and escort the second prince. ......

The popular high fantasy series, which has sold over 600,000 copies and has a total of 130 million PV on "Shosetsu-ka Naro", has finally been adapted into an anime.
The secret activities of Monica, the "Silent Witch" who loves magic and numbers, begin!

Original story: Matsuri Yorozora


We are pleased to announce that "Silent Witch" will be adapted into an anime.
This is thanks to the support of all those who worked on the production of this work, as well as our readers.
Thank you very much.
In the original novel, a certain black cat says in the middle of the story.
Praise me more! Praise! If you want, you can write a ballad, write a novel, draw a portrait and pass it on to posterity!"
Right now, it's being turned into a book, a comic book, and an anime.
And I am very deeply moved.
Every time I see or hear the data sent to me in the animation supervision process, I am grateful for the wonderful work done by the professionals.
Animation is truly a comprehensive art form, the crystallization of the work of professionals in various fields.
I feel very proud to have been involved in such an amazing project.
Every time I see the data you send me, I say something like, "Wow! Wow!
I hope many people will enjoy the anime "Silent Witch".

Original illustration by Nanana Fujimi


Congratulations on the anime adaptation of "Silent Witch!
I am very happy as an illustrator of the original book and as a fan of Silent Witch.
When the decision was made to make an anime, I remembered many things, such as when I designed the characters and drew the cover illustrations.
At the same time, I was really moved by the thought that we will be able to see Monica and her friends' story in the anime... I was really deeply moved and at the same time I couldn't stop being excited.
Once again, I would like to thank Mr. Yosora for creating Silent Witch, the people involved in the book and comic editions, the people involved in the production of the anime, and the fans of Silent Witch.
I, as a viewer, will do my best to enjoy the anime as much as possible!
Congratulations on the anime adaptation!

Kitan Tobi, in charge of the comic book adaptation


Congratulations on the anime adaptation of "Silent Witch: The Hidden Things of the Silent Witch!
I am very much looking forward to seeing how the anime will depict the changes and expressions of Monica and the characters around her as she grows just a little bit more each time the story progresses, not to mention the frightened Monica, the trembling Monica, and the hard-working Monica.
As a fan, I can't wait to see how the world of "Silent Witch" will expand further with each new discovery and enjoyment through the web version, book version, comic book version, audiobook version, and other media. As a fan, I can't stop being excited to see how the world of Silent Witch will expand further.
I am very happy to be involved in this work! I will do my best for the comic book version as well.

(I will do my best for the comic book version as well.)

I am very excited to be involved in this work!

Wonder Festival 2024 [Summer]" was held at Makuhari Messe in Chiba Prefecture on Sunday, July 28, 2024.

Wonder Festival," one of the world's largest figurative arts and figures festivals, began as an event for professionals and amateurs alike to showcase their figurative skills by bringing kits they have created to exhibit and sell at the event. Exhibits from anime-related companies, existing character kits that are only allowed to be sold on the day, and one-off modeling items. The appeal of the event is wide-ranging, including spirited cosplay.

In this article, we will introduce the latest bishojo figures exhibited at the Amiami booth, which handles the distribution and sales of domestic and foreign manufacturers! In this article, we will continue from our previous article and focus on the original bishojo figures that showcase the unique worldview of each illustrator and sculptor, as well as figures from popular titles such as "Azur Lane.

When you are a working adult, you tend to have a lot of plastic models piled up in your busy life. ...... In this series, Yasuyuki Tai, a voice actor who loves robots and plastic models, takes on the challenge of building plastic models on your behalf!

The concept is "even busy working people can make it this far on their weekends off! The only two rules of this article are that the model must be finished in its unassembled state and that you can only spend one or two days building it! Read this series, and you will surely find the plastic model you want to build.

Taiyuki's Weekend Plastic Model Vol. 95 "Transformers" Megatron


This time it's "Transformers"! Megatron", the first in the "AMK PRO" series of semi-finished assembly kits developed by yolopark and released in Japan by Doyusha!

Although it is called an "assembly kit," each part of the Megatron is contained in its own blister, so no tools are needed at all!　Moreover, since it is pre-painted, you only need to assemble it to complete the wonderful Megatron.

The left side is the outer box, and the right side is the surface of the inner box. As the name "DIECAST" indicates, the main body is moderately heavy. The choice of Megatron as the first model in the series is very astringent.

The blister is stacked in two layers. Even though it is an assembly kit, no cutting out of parts or painting is required as it is in this condition. Please rest assured.

We had seen this at the All Japan Model Hobby Show, and when we saw this state, we said, "There is also this. There is this one too! It was a little fun to see it in this condition.

Here is a brief introduction of the assembly. The head is connected with a ball joint. It is a little hard, so be careful when removing it.

The shoulders, arms, waist, and wrists are all connected to the shafts. The shafts have "returns" so they will not fall off easily.

The base of the thighs and ankles are also connected with shafts. This completes the main body. See, isn't it easy?

Attach the barrel part of the pistol to the back: ......

Attach the fusion cannon to the right arm. The screw part seen on the fusion cannon side is the button battery box.

Here is the completed Megatron-sama. This item is a non-transforming figure, and the style is outstanding.

The detailed painting and weathering of the figure also gives it a really nice atmosphere. In the movie, when Transformers collide with each other, you can hear a hard and heavy metallic sound, and this one also has a hard appearance.

Rear. It looks pretty neat. In the Megatron toys released at the time the anime aired, the barrel part of the back was transformed so that it faced forward from the right side, but since this figure appeared in the anime, this has become the standard.

A close-up of the face part and the surrounding painted area. The eyes are clear parts. The scraped and dirty paint on the body surface is just right.

And this face part comes in a total of three types. In addition to this normal face, ......


A "hahaha! Nice work, Condor!" smiling face.

This is a face with more details and a deep sculpted face. Both are possible. Please enjoy it as you like.

Destron mark is on the chest. The abdomen and the sides of the figure have many parts to be painted, but they are all painted with a high degree of accuracy. The weathering on the black waist area also looks good.

The fingers on the wrist are movable, including the thumb, index finger, and other fingers. The cuffs, which tend to get dirty even on humans, may also be easily soiled by Transformers. This is also where we can feel their life-form-like nature.

The fusion cannon also has weathering. The balance of size with the main body of Megatron is also as expected. It is just right.

The inside of the calves of the legs, which are hidden when transformed into pistols, have details that look like that. The fact that the figure is originally a transforming robot is not forgotten. The weathering on the legs also gives a metallic look.

Each threaded carved part has a black line to make it look tighter.

The legs are large, making it very stable.

As you will see in the video for more details, the eyes have a built-in light-emitting gimmick.



There is no switch on the outside, and the switch is switched by a magnetic function. The magnet is built into the barrel portion of the back, and the switch reacts when it is brought close to the forehead. Each time the magnet is brought close, the light turns on => blinks => pulses => turns off.

Megatron's eye

The fusion cannon also has a light-emitting gimmick. After all, this is the point where we want it to glow, isn't it?

Destron army, attack!

The knees can be bent in a slightly inverted joint, allowing the figure to stand in a heroic pose.

The base of the wrists can be snapped.

Well done Soundwave!"

The elbows also bend deeply. Shoulder movement is also surprisingly wide.

The fingers are movable, so it is possible to point at something.

The base of the shoulder can swing forward.

The base of the neck can be lifted in this manner, which is effective in creating a condescending attitude toward others.

From here, we can reconfirm the range of motion. Excellent front to back leg opening and forward bending movement of the abdomen and chest. Horizontal shoulder lifting and finger deployment can be seen. The right ankle is shown with the toes lifted to the fullest extent. Incidentally, without image processing, it stands on its own.


Left and right legs can be opened 180°. The base of the neck is slightly lifted. The right ankle is now fully extended.


The knee is double-jointed and can stand on one knee. The waist and chest can also be seen in this image.

The ankle toes are also movable, allowing for this kind of stooped posture. The movable abdomen, chest, and base of the neck are very useful for posing.


The figure is very mobile.


Stand and pedestal are included.

The base of the support pillar has the Destron mark.

If you use the included stand properly, you can pose it like this. The pedestal seems to be designed in such a way that it can be connected to several other pedestals.


My Sabertron of long ago!　My home of the shining metal moon!"

The figure reproduces Megatron-sama as he drank himself to victory.


The "Key of Vector Sigma," a key that played a major role in the birth of Stantron, is also included. It is made of metal and has a sense of weight.


It's the Circuit Key of Vector Sigma. This will bring my Stantron unit to life!"


Centurions, you are commanded!

If you hold it well, you can even put your thumb on the switch. The modeling is still very well reproduced.


The energy flail, which was rarely used in the movie but left a great impression on me because I saw it every week in the OP video, is also included. It is made of purple clear parts.


The energy flail can be attached to the wrist by replacing it with the wrist. The chain part has four movable parts, allowing you to recreate the pose where the chain is cut off in the middle of swinging.


The retention force of the movable parts is also quite good.


The laser dagger used in "Transformers The Movie" is also included.


The long blade is clear molded and looks quite cool.


Isn't Megatron holding the dagger a little too cool?


In the movie, he never makes a pose like this, but he is perfectly posed as if he were a hero robot.


Deeeeeeeeeeeeee!

This may be the most glorious scene in "The Movie.


Megatron's expression is a little bit austere, a little bit like a period drama.


And the chest panel comes with parts to recreate the scene in "The Movie" when he was mortally wounded. The panel can be replaced by replacing the normal panel. There are details on the inside of the panel as well.


Here is the damaged chest panel. It is very painful!


The backsides of both panels are also detailed.

The last accessory we will show you is the blaster that was picked up in the play.


The blaster was found in the play, and it is shown here with the following words: "Oh, I've lost!　This is my loss, Convoy!　Show some mercy, but only life!"


"How long I have waited for this moment, Convoy, and now it is over for you. I've waited too long for this, Convoy, and now it's over for you.


But it is very "Transformers" that the fatal wound to Convoy was not inflicted by the fusion cannon, but by a blaster he picked up.

So, that's it for the review.

The size is easy to handle, moves well, and is painted perfectly, complete with lights and other accessories that only Megatron can provide. What do you think?

This is just the first batch, but we can't wait to see what other Transformers are in store for us in the future.

Let's keep checking back!


Oh, by the way, I've been in a few Transformers myself, including Decepticon Beacon and Foiljack in "Prime" and "Kick Back" in "Adventure.

I also sang the famous song "Cool Easy! I'm also the one who sang the famous song "Cool Easy!

Please check it out too!

Comments from the cast have also arrived!

Kana Hanazawa (playing the role of Eri Uminaka)

I originally saw Yasuda Phenomenon's work on SNS and was curious about what kind of work it would be since the audition, so I was very happy to have the opportunity to be a part of it.
Eri, who I will be voicing, is a robot researcher and a very caring person who is like an older sister to Akira.
She will be involved in the story, so please look forward to seeing her in action!
And anyway, I hope you will enjoy No. 0 on the screen because she is so cute!

Yoshi Ueda (as Shoichi Takamine)

This is the first feature film directed by up-and-coming animation artist Phenomenon Yasuda.
Recently, I have had many opportunities to participate in films by new creators who are taking on big challenges, and I was very happy to be able to be a part of the scene.
I was inspired by the cast and tried to express the complexity of human beings. I hope you will feel more familiar and deeply connected with the work. I hope you enjoy it.

Minami Hyuga (as Akira Mizutame in his childhood)

My name is Minami Hyuga, and I play the role of Akira Mizutame in his childhood.
I was very happy when I was chosen for the role because I had wanted to be involved somehow ever since I was told about the audition. Since I was chosen, I felt a lot of pressure to express to the best of my ability what Akira was dealing with in her childhood.
During the postrecording, I played the role together with the other cast members.
I was happy to be able to experience firsthand how the emotions of the characters became even clearer when they were voiced.
And from the postrecording stage, the images were truly amazing.
I hope you will enjoy the movie using all of your senses in the theater.

■Theatrical Animation " Make-A-Girl
Opening in theaters on January 31, 2025 (Friday)

<Introduction
The first feature-length theatrical animation project by Yasuda Phenomenon, an animation artist who boasts a total of over 6 million followers on social networking services such as YouTube and TikiTok, has finally begun!
Yasuda, who has been highly acclaimed both in Japan and abroad for his individually produced 3D short animations, music videos, and corporate promotional animations, has created a completely original work with full 3D computer graphics and "Yasuda Phenomenon purity 300%". The crowdfunding campaign for the production of the film exceeded 230% of its goal, proving its overwhelming popularity and high profile.

The story takes place in the future, slightly ahead of the present. Akira Mizutame, a boy with a genius brain who has succeeded in developing and commercializing Salt, a robot that supports people's lives, feels stuck in a dead-end situation as all of his new inventions fail. Then he hears from a friend that he can "power up" his girlfriend by creating her, and he ends up scientifically creating an artificial girlfriend, "No. 0," who literally becomes his girlfriend. He is torn between his programmed emotions and his growing feelings. Is it "love" that buds between him and Akira, who is unaccustomed to communicating with others, or is it ......?

The fascinating characters who weave the story are played by Atsumi Tanezaki (No. 0), who has shown her ability to transform from one character to another in roles such as Anya in "SPY x FAMILY" and Freelen in "Sougou no Freelen", and Shun Horie (Akira Mizutame), who has been selected for leading roles in various popular works, including Kyotaro Ichikawa in "Bokoku no Kokoro no Yabaiyatsu". Yasuda Phenomenon's cyber love suspense with an unpredictable development awaits you, and is now spreading to the world. ────!

]]> Please Put On Your Pants, Mr. Takamine" TV Anime Adaptation! The pants-off, time-traveling otome, Takamine-san, bursts into anime with her peach-colored begging! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71123/ Thu, 01 Aug 2024 18:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71123/

The long-awaited TV anime adaptation of "Please Put On Your Pants, Takamine-san," currently serialized in the monthly "Gungan JOKER" (Square Enix), was announced today, August 2, 2024, which is also Pants Day.

The serialization of "Please put on your pants, Mr. Takamine" in the monthly magazine "Gungan JOKER" (Square Enix) began in January 2019 and has gained popularity due to the cuteness of the heroine, Takamine-san, and her special relationship with an ordinary high school student, Hakuta-kun.

The long-awaited TV anime adaptation of "Please Put On Your Pants, Takamine-san" was announced today, August 2, which is also Pants Day.

A teaser visual for the TV anime adaptation has been released. It is a cute visual depicting Takamine Takamine, the heroine of the work.

In addition, Yuichi Hiiragi, the author of the original work, has provided a congratulatory illustration and comments on the anime adaptation, so be sure to check it out.

Original author Yuichi Hiiragi's comment

Thanks to everyone's support, "Please put on your shoes, Mr. Takamine" will be adapted into an anime! When I heard about the anime adaptation, I was skeptical and wondered if he had gone crazy. However, as the number of people involved in the "Mr. Takamine" anime increased day by day, and as I had more opportunities to see the work and the process, I felt relief and realized that "Mr. Takamine was not crazy" and became more and more grateful to the people involved.
Above all, it is the readers who read and support us that led "Mr. Takamine" to be adapted into an anime. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you!"

After I started posting on the web, I was immediately approached by Square Enix and then by Akita Shoten, and before I knew it, I was here.
My novel "An Old Man from the Countryside Becomes a Sword Saint" has finally been adapted into an anime.
I would like to thank all of you who have continued to support us and help us reach this point. I would like to express my sincere gratitude.
The director, the scriptwriter, and everyone else involved in the production have patiently listened to me, a man with no knowledge of animation.
I have high expectations for this project, and I am sure that it will be a good one.
I have been living without a TV for the past ten years, and I am thinking of taking this opportunity to buy another one.
I hope that the day will come when I can enjoy this anime together with everyone who has supported my work up to now.

]]> Steam] On a day when it's too hot to play games, we've got three new games we recommend for August! Three new games recommended for August for quick and casual fun! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71136/ Thu, 01 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71136/

How are you doing, Akiba Research Institute readers? I am Nero Hyakkabe, a writer who buys too many games. The word "extreme heat" is very appropriate these days, but I hope you are not getting sick.　On hot days, it is probably best to relax and enjoy games in a cool room instead of forcing yourself to go out. So this time, we would like to introduce a selection of recommended indie titles released in June and July that can be enjoyed in the comfort of your own home.

1、Move from shadow to shadow! The stylish graphics of the action-puzzle "SCHiM" are also attractive.


With the summer, the daylight hours are getting longer, and you may have more opportunities to see "shadows". These days, we often look for shade to escape from the severe heat, and "SCHiM - SCHiM" is a title in which such "shadows" are key.

This title is an action game with an oblique, downward-looking perspective. The first thing that catches the eye is the unique graphics drawn in simple colors. The stylish and impressive visuals, which look like paintings, are already stylish not only in the game but also from the menu screen.

The word "skim" in the title is a Dutch word meaning "something like a spirit" or "something that seems to flicker out of the corner of your eye. The main character of this work, a small spirit skim, is a mysterious being that exists in every shadow and moves from shadow to shadow, bouncing from shadow to shadow. Skims exist in every shadow, and everything in the world has one skim, which is never separated from the main body.
And while we can recognize their presence as children, they become invisible as we grow older. The fairytale-like world of the game matches the unique graphics and draws you into the game world with gusto.

One day, the main character in this work, Skim, is unexpectedly cut off from the shadow of the person who has been watching over him all his life. Will he be able to return safely to his original place before it is too late? ...... is the story of this work.

Basically, no text is displayed except for operation instructions, and there is no dialogue between characters, so the story is left to the imagination of the player.

The rule of this work is to move from shadow to shadow to reach the destination. Since skims can basically only stay in the shadows, they must make full use of jumping to move. Skims have limited jumping ability and cannot move very far away, so they must move from one shadow to the next.

Be careful, however, because if you stay in a shadowless area for a while, you will be returned to the shadow you were in just before. If you are too far away from your destination to find a suitable shadow, you can change the angle of view by shifting your perspective, or use the shadows of moving people or bicycles. This is a puzzle-like fun in which inspiration is the key.

Skim can interact with objects in the shadows. For example, if you enter the shadow of a traffic light and interact with it, you can change the red and blue colors, such as ....... This can be used to help you capture the scene, for example, by stopping your car and using the shadow of the car.

On the other hand, objects unrelated to the strategy can also be interacted with. You can also play tricks with objects that have nothing to do with the attack, such as ringing a bicycle bell or rattling a fence. Also, sometimes you may encounter skims other than yourself lurking in the shadows. The playful touches in this area are one of the charms of this title.

SCHiM - Skim" offers unique and stylish graphics, gameplay that combines jumping action and puzzles, and a story that is like a picture book with as little text as possible. Since there are no complicated controls, this title can be recommended even for those who do not usually play games.

2，Dice and cards are used to build a city! Minna to Machi Koro" is a digital version of the classic Bodoge game that also allows you to enjoy online battles!


When you think of a "city-building game," you probably think of a simulation game like "SimCity. However, "Minna to Machi Koro" is a competitive town-building game in which players build a town with dice and cards.

Minna to Machi Koro" is a board game that anyone can easily play using dice and cards.
This title is a digital and online version of the internationally popular Japanese analog board game "Machi Koro," which was nominated for the "German Annual Game Award," sometimes called the "Academy Award of the board game world," and is well known for its fun.


Furthermore, this title is packaged with two board games, "Machi Koro" and its sister title "Machi Koro Dori (Two)," both of which support CPU, offline, and online play, making it a great value and a very generous package.


Real board games can be difficult to find people to play with or to time the timing to get together in one place, but this title's great advantage is that you can easily play the games against the CPU or online. There are three types of online matches: Friend Match, where you can play with your Steam friends, Guest Match, where you can play with other people who know your password, and Random Match, where you can play with anyone.

Let's start with the basic rules of Machi Koro.

The objective of Machi Koro is to build four "landmarks," the symbols of the city. In this game, landmarks and other facilities are all cards, and you can build your own facilities by paying coins corresponding to the numbers written on the bottom left of the cards. The game is played with the "dice".

Players roll one or two dice on their turn, and if the rolls match the facility they have, they receive the effect of that facility.

The effects are
If you roll a die on your turn, you get a coin.
You get coins on anyone's turn.
You can take coins from any other player who rolls that eye.
You get coins from everyone.
You can get coins from any player you choose.
Exchange your facility for another player's facility.

There are a variety of things you can do.
You can build only one facility per turn, so choose the one you want to build while considering your financial situation and the construction status of your town.

The first player to build four landmarks wins the game by repeatedly rolling the die, obtaining coins, paying the coins, and building the facility. Landmarks are priced higher than regular facilities, so you need to earn coins well, but on the other hand, you may lose coins by rolling dice depending on other players' facilities. The dice profit chart will be displayed each turn to tell you how much you will gain or lose in coins if you roll a certain number of dice, so check the chart and pray as you roll. This dice profit chart system is a kind feature unique to the digital version of this title.

Its sister title, "Machi Korodori," has the same basic rules of rolling dice, building facilities, and earning coins, but there are various differences that make the game even more exciting.


The first is the initial construction of facilities at the start of the game.
In "Machi Korotsu," each player starts with 5 coins and builds one facility per turn for 3 turns, without rolling any dice. Incidentally, in "Machi Korodori," facilities are replenished from the deck when there is an opening in the supply (field).

The major difference between "Machi Korodori" and "Machi Korodori" is that the clear condition is three landmarks. In "Machi Coro," there were only four fixed types of landmarks, but in "Machi Coro Dori," there are many types of landmarks. All of them have powerful effects, so choosing which one to build is the key to victory. There are also several facilities other than landmarks that appear only in "Machi Korodori," such as "Sushi Restaurant" and "Brand Mall," which allow players to enjoy battles with more intense coin exchanges than in "Machi Korodori.

In addition, while the "Machi Koro" system allows players to roll two dice by building a landmark "station," in "Machi Koro Dori," players can now choose to roll two dice from the beginning. This allows for a wider range of strategies in "Machi Korodori".

The most attractive feature of "Minna to Machi Koro" is that you can play both "Machi Koro" and "Machi Koro Dori" in a single game. In addition, there are many convenient systems unique to the digital version, such as a tutorial to carefully learn the rules, a stamp function that can be easily used in a game, and a game speed acceleration function that makes playing more comfortable. There is also a skin that can be changed for dice and other items, which can be unlocked as you play more and raise your Machi Koro rank, making the game even more challenging. It can be said that the content is truly comprehensive.

Minna to Machi Koro" allows users to play the world popular board games "Machi Koro" and "Machi Koro Dori" easily and comfortably digitally. The appeal of Minna to Machi Koro is its easy-to-understand rules that anyone can play by rolling dice, building buildings, and earning coins.
An update to fix bugs and improve usability is scheduled to be released in the near future.
This title is recommended not only for board game lovers but also for those who are looking for a party game that can be played casually, so please check it out if you are interested.

Minna to Machi Koro" Go to Steam

Clear the game by drawing 3, 1/2 hits 13 times in a row! The strongest(?) "luck game" in Steam history! The strongest(?) "luck game" in the history of Steam, "1/8192"!


Do you have confidence in your luck?
In our daily lives, we have opportunities to be aware of our luck by playing fortunes, lotteries, or by playing smartphone games, but "1/8192" is a title that allows you to test your luck.

1/8192" is a first-person perspective game with 3D graphics. The setting is a Buddhist mandala space. In this mysterious and unique space, the player embarks on a "journey to challenge the Zen question of luck. The field is filled with stone lanterns, torii gates, Buddhist statues, and many other monuments, creating a mysterious space.

The player's objective in this work is to reach the final goal while clearing the stages. To reach the goal, the player must keep entering the winning blue and green gates that appear in each stage. The winning and losing gates are set randomly each time, and the result cannot be determined by appearance, etc. You do not know the result until you enter the gate. If you win, you will advance to the next stage; if you fail, you will be returned to the first stage. In short, the rule is that if you win a lottery ticket that has a 1/2 chance of winning, you are OK.

At first glance, it may seem quite easy to get a win in a lottery with a 50/50 chance of winning or failing, but the condition for reaching the goal is to win 13 times in a row!　The probability is 1/8192, which is 1 to the 13th power of 2. In other words, you need a lot of luck to clear the puzzle. As mentioned above, once you enter the wrong gate, you are returned to the first stage and have to start all over again, so players have to keep selecting and passing through gates as if they were ascetic monks.

As you can imagine from the number 8192, it is quite a difficult path to reach the goal. The controls are basically just movement, and there are no enemies or bosses, so there are no difficult elements in the game, but the simple fact that it is extremely difficult to hit 13 consecutive hits makes it a completely new type of "high difficulty game. It can be called a "high difficulty game" of a completely new type. If you hit the wrong answer even once, you have to start over, so you will surely feel a tremendous sense of tension when you have to make a choice to clear the stage with only one or two stages left to go.

During the stage, there is a sign that allows you to check your past history to see whether you got the blue or green answer correct. You can analyze the most recent trends, such as "I've been biased toward blue recently (......)," or "I've seen a lot of alternating blue and green hits," but whether you are a winner or a loser is just random. This is just a level that you might want to refer to when you are really confused about which gate to proceed to.

In addition, each stage is equipped with a money-offering box and a fortune. At the donation box, you can freely insert your own money and hit the Kashiwade, and at the Omikuji, you will receive a stick painted either blue or green. Both of these are decorative elements that do not affect the odds of winning the gate, but the interesting thing is that when you really have a hard time deciding which one to choose, you will want to rely on them. The fact that this kind of "divine reliance" element is incorporated into the game is one of the unique points of this title.

With its very simple rules, which require players to keep drawing 1/2 the jackpot for 13 consecutive games to clear the game, and easy controls that anyone can play with, "1/8192" allows players to enjoy the ultimate test of luck. The reasonable price of less than one coin is also attractive, so if you are confident of your luck, please give it a try.

Square Enix began taking pre-orders today, Thursday, August 1, 2024, for the Nintendo Switch downloadable version of "Romancing Saga 2: Revenge of the Seven," a full remake of "Romancing Saga 2" scheduled for release on Thursday, October 24, 2024.

Romancing Saga 2 Revenge of the Seven" is a full 3D remake of "Romancing Saga 2" released in December 1993.

It depicts the battles between the "Seven Heroes" and the emperors of the Varennes Empire, and features an epic storyline that unfolds in a free-form scenario. While maintaining the series' unique and groundbreaking system, the game system has been restructured to make it easier to play for both fans of the original and newcomers alike by introducing a new "linkage" system, revamping the growth system, and adding difficulty settings.
The vast world expressed in the original game with dots has been renewed in beautiful full 3D.
Leon, Gerard, and the Seven Heroes have also evolved into 3D visuals that retain the image of the original work, and event scenes are now fully voiced.

]]> Anime adaptation of the popular xenobiotic battle "The petals of the Lynn Carnation", which has sold more than 3 million copies in total, is coming! Teaser visual and special PV of the original work are released! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71100/ Wed, 31 Jul 2024 18:38:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71100/

A TV anime adaptation of the popular manga "The Petals of the Lynn Carnation," which has sold more than 3 million copies, has been decided. In addition, a visual commemorating the anime adaptation and a special PV of the original work have been released at the same time.

The manga "The Petals of the Lynn Carnation" is written by Mikihisa Konishi, who began serializing the manga in "Monthly Comic Blade" in 2014 and is currently serialized in "Monthly Comic Garden" and "MAGCOMI". The "reincarnation branch" cuts open one's own body and digs up talents from a previous life. His talent draws out the genius of not only great people but also sinners. This is the story of a high school student, Toya Senji, who is starved for talent because of his lack of talent, and confronts his past and future with the talent he has acquired. It has gained popularity as an unusual battle manga that makes full use of abilities based on previous lives.

The original manga has now been published up to volume 19, and the latest volume, volume 20, is scheduled for release on August 7 (Wednesday). The story of the "Mawarimono," who have gained talents from their previous lives through the "Rinne no Shima" (branch of reincarnation), and how their battles accelerate is a development that cannot be missed even for a moment.

In the visual released this time to commemorate the anime adaptation, the heroine of the work, Haido=Luo=Bufet, is holding a branch of reincarnation and looking back at us with eyes that seem to be slightly shadowy. Around her neck, there is a flower that reminds us of the moment just before the petals of a flower dance, a sign of a "Mawari-ja" who has drawn out the talents of a previous life.

Mikihisa Konishi, the author of the original story, commented that he is looking forward to seeing the film, and an illustration depicting the heroine, Haido=Luo=Bufet, with a lively expression has arrived.

In addition, a special PV of the original work shows the unique characters of "Mawari-sha" and the abilities of each character.

In addition, to commemorate the decision of the anime adaptation, a special campaign is now being held on the official X sites of the original work and the anime, where you can win a copy of the original manga signed by Mikihisa Konishi for five lucky readers by following and reposting the post. Take advantage of this opportunity to enter the contest.

Details on the cast and broadcast information will be announced in the future.
The long-awaited anime adaptation of "The petals of the Lynn Carnation" will continue to be announced in the future.

Comment from Mikihisa Konishi

I was not at all aware of or expecting the anime adaptation of ......, so when I heard about it, I was hit with a peashooter and spent the rest of the day with the beans stuck in my mouth.

Anyway, first of all, I would like to thank all the readers who have supported this work so far!
I would also like to thank the people who have worked so hard to make this an anime, as well as the many others who will be involved in the future!

However, the only thing I can do for the film adaptation is to give you settings and supplementary materials that are not depicted in the manga, and to answer any questions you may have.
I will trust and entrust the rest to the production staff, work harder than ever on the serialization, and wait excitedly for the film version.

<Story
A "reincarnation branch" that allows a person to gain talents from a previous life by cutting off their own head.

The main character, Toya Senji, who grew up being compared to his superior older brother and having an inferiority complex about his lack of talent, has decided that studying is the last thing he wants to do and is not satisfied with his academic ability, even though he is ranked in the top 100 in every national mock exam.
One day, he encounters a classmate, Haito-Ruo-Bufet, a "Mawarimono," who has acquired a talent from his previous life through the "Rinne-no-Branch," and fights a serial killer.

]]> The fun of baseball is fully recreated in a TCG! No.5 "Professional Baseball Card Game Dream Order" ["TCG for Beginners! https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71107/ Wed, 31 Jul 2024 01:00:00 +0000 https://bukuro-souken.com/en/article/71107/

It has been almost 30 years since the world's first trading card game (TCG), "Magic: The Gathering," was introduced to the world. Many TCG titles have appeared on the market, and new titles are still being released and played all over the world, but there are probably many people who only played a little as a child or have never actually touched the game.

In this series of articles, we will report on the appeal of TCG games that can be enjoyed by TCG beginners even if they start playing now, as well as the TCG industry as told by the development team and staff members.

In this fifth installment, we pick up "Professional Baseball Card Game Dream Order (hereinafter referred to as "Dream Order")," a title based on the national sport of baseball, which was just released in April of this year.

In the first half, we experienced the charms of the fully released "Dream Order" by playing with an actual deck while being taught by a member of the development team.

In the second half of the interview, we asked Mr. Kobayashi, the producer, about the story behind the release of "Dream Order," future development, ideas for boosting the TCG industry, and a message for those who want to start playing "Dream Order!

There is a giveaway at the end of the article. Click here for details!

People interviewed

Ravika

A deck case fairy from the TCG world with a mission to increase the number of new TCG players. It would be a terrible thing if the number of new players did not increase, so today she continues to help spread the charm of TCGs to the world.

Since she cannot play the card game in her body, she uses her live avatar's hand to play during the interview.

Even though it is a TCG, the feeling of playing is just like baseball!


Rabika Oh Oh Wow Wow DeNA BayStars!　Hello, my name is Rabika!

Bushiroad Kobayashi (Kobayashi) Hello, Rabika here. I'm Nobuto Kobayashi, the producer of "Professional Baseball Card Game Dream Order"!　You were singing a cheering song earlier, but do you like the Yokohama DeNA BayStars, Rabika-chan?

Rabika: Yes, I do!　I've been a fan of the team since 1996, when Oya was manager, so I'm thrilled to hear that today we get to play "Dream Order," which is based on baseball!

Kobayashi: You must be a pretty old baseball fan, Rabika.

What is "Dream Order"?

Dream Order" is a TCG title based on the national sport of baseball, released on April 20, 2024. Players become the manager of a baseball team and compete against each other using a deck constructed from player cards. The main game is between pitchers and hitters, and the player with the highest score wins the game after three rounds of back-to-back battles, supported by the players in his or her hand. The game features card abilities that incorporate the rules of baseball well, and a system in which the outcome of a hit is determined by the roll of the dice.

Ravika: Do you like baseball, Mr. Kobayashi?

Kobayashi Of course. I also like baseball, and I have played many TCGs since I was a child, so I am very confident that "Dream Order" is a title that I am proud to have developed.

Ravika: This title is filled with the love of Mr. Kobayashi and the staff!

Kobayashi So, here is the starting deck for "Dream Order," which was released on April 20!

Rabika: Wow, that's amazing!　There are really 12 teams on ......!　This is an impressive picture.

Kobayashi I would like to play with this starting deck today, Ravika, which team would you choose?

Rabika Rabika is of course the BayStars!

Kobayashi Then, I will use the starting deck for the Fukuoka Softbank Hawks here. From here, let's follow the actual flow of the game as I explain it to you. By the way, Rabika, can you grasp cards with your hands?

Rabika: Yes, I'm bringing a live avatar this time, too. You can even wear gloves with this one, so it's no problem!

Kobayashi I see... ......?

In the foreground are the raw avatar hands that Ravika uses for interviews!

Kobayashi ......, let's get back on track. Let the games begin!

Rabika: Yes, sir!　Play ball!

Kobayashi: First, we decide who goes first and who goes second by rock-paper-scissors-scissors. The first team is the batter's side in the first inning, and the second team is the pitcher's side. Just like in actual baseball, the game changes after three outs, and the offensive and defensive teams take turns. This is repeated for three innings, and the higher score wins.

Ravika: So, unlike in actual baseball, there are three innings instead of nine. Alright then, let's play rock-paper-scissors. ......

Kobayashi ...... Yes, I'm the starter this time. Now, first place the pitcher marked "starter" from the order deck in the bench area, and place the fielders in the bench area in the batting order you have decided.

Ravika So you are free to choose your own batting order. I'm wondering if this is more in line with the actual team structure or if you want to be game strong. ......

Kobayashi Then, after placing the shuffled main deck on the deck, draw from the deck the number of numbers written next to the "starter" of your starting pitcher. This will be your initial hand.

Ravika That. Does that mean that the number of cards in your initial hand changes depending on who you choose as your starting pitcher? ......

Kobayashi That's right. In "Dream Order," the cards in your hand are used to support your batters and pitchers, so you can think of the number of cards in your initial hand as being like the stamina of your starting pitcher.

Ravika I see. It's quite unusual that the number of cards in the initial hand changes depending on the cards in the deck!

Kobayashi Well, first of all, let's start with the standby phase. Please place the players who will play each other in the main area. Since the offense and defense are reversed, I'm the No. 1 batter and Rabika-chan is the starting pitcher, East. For pitchers, the "DP" number written in the lower left corner of the card is the base points, and for hitters, the "AP" number is the base points. If the batter's AP is higher than the pitcher's DP, the decision is made to hit the ball. Since the pitcher usually has higher base points, the points can be enhanced by playing one or two cards from the hand in the support area in the next phase of play. So, here, there is a game of guessing how much value the opponent has given to the support area.

Ravika, what are these "meat" and "strong swing" things?

KOBAYASHI These indicate how the batter hits the ball. Meet" indicates that the batter is more likely to get a solid hit when judging the hit, while "Strike Out" indicates that the batter is more likely to get a home run instead of an out. Since both batters declare whether they are going to hit a meat or a hard strike after placing their cards face down in the support area, the pitcher must anticipate which way the opponent is aiming and place the support.

Ravika I see. ....... So, I'm sure it's a first, so here's what I'm thinking: ......?

Kobayashi I have also finished placing my support, so I would like to go with "strong strikeout" this time.

Ravika Eh. A strong strike out of the blue!　I guess my reading was off. ......

Kobayashi Let's table the cards in the support area. The batter's side has 2+4 for 6 points, while the pitcher's side remains at 6 points due to support failure since the card was for meat. In case of a tie, the batter wins, so the dice are rolled for the hitting decision.

Ravika Ah!　Is that perhaps a support app for your phone?

Kobayashi That's right. The support app "Dream Order Game Supporter" provides functions such as rolling dice for batting decisions, calculating scoreboard points, and creating batting order charts.

Ravika Heh!　Ravika, I'm the type of person who often forgets to roll tokens or dice, so it's nice to have it all on my phone!

Click here for the "Dream Order Game Supporter" support app

Kobayashi Let's roll the dice: ......

Ravika Eh. 11, which means .......

Kobayashi ...... this time it's a hard roll, so 11 means a homerun. In other words, it's a home run. ......

Ravika Heyーー!　What do you mean the first batter struck out hard and hit a home run from the first pitch of the first inning!

Kobayashi Well, well. It's ...... that makes it easier to explain when the score is scored. When a score is scored, the pitcher's side can draw a card for the score from the deck as a bonus. The cards in the support area are then placed in the rest area, and the next batter comes up and the game begins again.

Ravika I'm so frustrated - ......!　I don't want to score any more points. So Ravika puts this card in the support area!

Kobayashi Then, I also put a card in the support area, so I declare a strong swing again. Now let's open the cards in the support area.

Rabika Then!　Ravika, I'll support you with the same card that I just drew, Azuma, the pitcher!

Kobayashi Oh, this is the "awakening" system. When a card with the same card number is placed, awakening is activated, and the basic points are added as they are, not the value of the support. In other words, Higashi's basic DP point is 6, so it is simply doubled, and 6 + 6 equals 12 points. In this case, Ravika has 12 points and I have 9 points, so the pitcher hits the batter and gets an out. The defensive player then places a card face down in the out area from the deck.

Ravika I see, so this is how you increase the out count!

Kobayashi: Broadly speaking, the game proceeds in this way. In addition, some cards have special abilities, and it is also possible to switch pitchers, but I will explain that as needed when it comes up, so let's just go on with the game.

Ravika: All right, we're going to win at any cost. ......

~20 minutes later, Rabika attacks in the bottom of the 3rd inning~!

Ravika: Please, please!　I want an 11 or 12 on a hard strikeout. ......　Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Kobayashi The dice read 2 and 3, so you're out. That's three outs, so I win 1-0!

Ravika: Wow, I lost!　I couldn't get back my first loss. ...... But it was so much fun!　The feel of the game is exactly like baseball, and I thought it really recreated the fun of the game between the batter and the pitcher!

The basic rules are based on baseball rules, so it was really realistic in terms of reading the cards to support the pitcher and the timing of changing the pitcher.

Kobayashi: This is exactly where the manager's leadership shines. Of course, we try to make the game enjoyable even for those who don't know anything about baseball, but if you do know baseball, I think you can feel the excitement of fighting actual games on behalf of the manager.

In addition, although we didn't talk about it much this time because we played with the starting deck, there are some conditions and rules for deck construction, such as costs, so please read the play guide on the official website to understand the detailed rules as well.

For detailed rule explanations and how to play, check out the official website!

Ravika: I think it would be fun to create your own all-star team or make your own rules!

Kobayashi The regulations for tournaments and events include "team-only" and "all-star-only," but if you are playing with friends, it might be an interesting way to play to set rules for reinforcing players when building decks.

Ravika It might be fun to bring 3 decks each with your friends and have a pennant race!　This is a dream come true. ......

Kobayashi We developed this game with a focus on satisfying not only players who like baseball, but also those who like TCGs, so please try out different ways to play!

We continued our interview with producer Mr. Kobayashi about the story behind the release and future developments!

Bushiroad Producer Shinto Kobayashi on the release and future development

Ravika: Thank you for the teaching today!　To begin with, how do you feel about "Dream Order" now that it has been about two months since its release on April 20 (the date of the interview was June 27)?

Kobayashi: It's been two months, but I think there are still many baseball fans who don't know about "Dream Order," so we would like to appeal to that segment of the market. The customer base is a little different from that of other TCGs, so I feel that this is also challenging. One of our ambitions is to create a world where commercials are aired during professional baseball games and awareness spreads among baseball fans.

Ravika: I think there were TCGs with a baseball motif before Dream Order.

Kobayashi: In the past, other companies have developed TCGs with baseball motifs, not only full-fledged TCGs but also arcade card games, etc. In developing "Dream Order," we considered what the main focus of the game would be. For example, we were conscious of past baseball TCGs in terms of deformation, such as how much of the defense should be reflected in the game and how much of the base running should be reflected.

I decided that the smallest unit of baseball in my opinion is "a match between a batter and a pitcher," and I decided to make the game a single flow, including the base running that accompanies the batter and the pitcher. However, there are also situations where players like defensive masters play an active role, so I included a "support" system in the form of defensive skills to back up the pitcher to recreate elements of real-life baseball. In doing so, we did a lot of research on how past baseball TCGs had incorporated defense.

Ravika I see. By the way, were there any difficulties you encountered during development, or any episodes that left a lasting impression?

Kobayashi The "Dream Order" project was born out of the blue. In a meeting where we were trying to come up with something new, one of the staff members, who loves baseball, said, "Oh, by the way, is there a baseball TCG?" The discussion went on as it was, because baseball is indeed a game with separate offenses and defenses and a turn-based system with major and minor categories. I was selected as the producer because I had always been a card gamer and a baseball fan.

However, we knew from the beginning that the player base would be different from the usual TCG users, so we had to find a balance between making the rules too complicated, which would never be understood, and making them too simple, which would quickly become boring.

The item that broke through the balance was the dice. Dice are a familiar item that everyone has seen at least once, and I think we all have a vague idea of the strength of dice when they produce a large number. We thought that the luck element of dice could be a way to bridge the gap between players who are familiar with TCGs and those who are unfamiliar with them.

Ravika: It's kind of fun to have the outcome determined by dice, like a TRPG (Table Talk RPG, an analog game that focuses on conversational exchange)!

Kobayashi: Yes, it is. The image of "trading cards that can be played" was at the root of our development. We think there is a need for people to collect them as Trekkies, but we also wanted to add value to the game by making them playable. We wanted to make it a card game like a board game.

Another point is that I thought that a game with a baseball motif would have people not only wanting to win the game, but also wanting their team to win, so I wanted the game to be used as a communication tool rather than just a casual game. I wanted the game to be a communication tool rather than a casual progression of the game. To this end, we incorporated a meet and strong strike system and a "declaration" element that allows players to communicate the points of their cards to each other. We wanted the game to be one where players could talk to each other and react, so that was a point we struggled with.

However, the biggest obstacle was ...... "12 teams". I think TCGs are finally gaining public recognition in recent years, but I had to visit all the teams within a month and a half to explain what TCGs are and what kind of players support them to those who don't know about them. I think we visited all the baseball teams in a month and a half. It was a lot of work, but I enjoy working on it because I have always loved baseball, and I am very happy to have developed it, although I still feel a big barrier.

Ravika: Indeed, there are so many baseball teams and players. ...... By the way, are there any points you were conscious of in terms of collectible elements in TCGs?

Kobayashi: For "Dream Order," we prepared horizontal cards called "Tactical Cards.

Kobayashi: If you could only use vertical photos, it would be difficult to use photos of famous defensive scenes or scenes of players gathered together, so we wanted to differentiate our cards from other TCGs by providing cards that face horizontally.

We also dared to choose a special parallel card for processing that did not include scenes of the players playing. We intentionally picked scenes such as a player coming home and striking a gut-punch, a pitcher being happy after striking out, or waving to the fans. Play scenes of players are often used, but baseball has drama in every moment, so I think that by employing memorable scenes, baseball fans will notice them, and I believe that this is an element that will stick with them as collectors.

Ravika I understand!　It would be nice to have a card with a scene of a favorite player's characteristic gesture or something!

Kobayashi: Other TCGs also have cards with scenes that reproduce the original story, but I think it will be easier for players to feel "a certain way" that baseball players behave in a certain way. For example, this card of Neo is a good example.

Kobayashi: If you like baseball, you know the scene where he turns his back and spreads his hands. This card image received a lot of impressions when it was first released, and cards that convey the real appeal of each player were well received.

Ravika: Baseball fans love the finer points, don't they? But what kind of players are you targeting with "Dream Order"?

Kobayashi: To be honest, we want to attract a different demographic than other TCGs. In terms of the industry, TCGs are a type of toy that may seem broad, but they are not that broad. If we want to expand the industry, we need to develop a new segment of players. For example, we hope that older people who have been baseball card collectors for a long time but do not play TCGs will be inspired to play as a family with their elementary school-aged children. We are considering the older generation of parents and the younger generation of elementary school students as new players, so we are trying to match the difficulty level of the game to them as much as possible.

Ideally, we would like to attract women who are fans of professional baseball, so we would like to create a space where it is easy to invite them to the game - for example, by creating events where they can participate while wearing baseball uniforms - to reach a demographic that has not been present in TCGs until now. In fact, it has only been two months since its release, so we are halfway there, but there are signs that we are beginning to reach the demographic we have targeted.

However, I feel that we still need to push the envelope a bit more to get these people to bring their friends along, so I think we should communicate more about the fun atmosphere and special experiences that are unique to "Dream Order". For example, I think one of the fun aspects of "Dream Order" is that you can play baseball even when it rains.

Ravika: With "Dream Order," you can even let your favorite team win a lot of games.

Kobayashi: That's right. In "Dream Order," the player's position is that of a manager and owner. In other words, in "Dream Order," you can buy a baseball team for 1,500 yen. You can buy your own original team for 1,500 yen and reinforce players for 400 yen. While enjoying the management of the team, such as buying a team and reinforcing the team, you can also enjoy taking the role of manager and directing the team in games.

However, players have a parameter called cost, and there is a cost limit rule for deck construction. In the real world, if you only have star players, you will run out of money, so we want players to be able to enjoy the game while also dealing with these practical issues.

Ravika It would be interesting if the abilities and costs of players also changed between their younger and veteran years!　By the way, what kind of products and developments do you have in mind for the future?

Kobayashi: One of our intentions in developing "Dream Order" is to "let people get to know various baseball players. Therefore, we would like to develop the product in such a way that people can learn more about players other than their favorite baseball teams. For example, if we develop team-specific packs, we may be able to spotlight players who are not very active in the second team, but are still undergoing adjustments and we want to carefully nurture them.

If the winning team is featured, it will leave a lasting impression on fans, so we would like to consider commemorative packs for the winning team, although there are some hurdles, such as the schedule. We would also like to feature individual team products and Samurai Japan-related products.

Ravika: You have a great love for baseball. ...... By the way, are you going to pick up any famous players from the past?

Kobayashi: Of course, we would like to commercialize alumni players as well, but if we go all the way back to the past, we would end up with a tremendous number of players, so we will keep an eye on that, but we would also like to do packaged products that include alumni players that are popular.

Ravika: There are so many elements that baseball fans would love! What are you planning for "Dream Order" to encourage these baseball fans to play as new players?

Kobayashi: After all, we believe that it is a very high hurdle for people who have no experience with TCGs to start playing anew. To overcome this hurdle, we believe that the three elements of "having someone to play with, meeting people of the same level, and playing in a place you have been to before" will trigger new interest.

As for the "having someone to do it with," I think this is easy to approach because baseball games are often attended by a group of friends or family members, rather than by a single person. As for "meeting people of the same level," there have been cases in other TCGs where players have drifted away from other players due to the difference in experience level, so we would like to hold events with an atmosphere where people of the same level can gather and senior players can teach them.

I think that how to overcome the "do it in a place you've been to before" will be a major point. Not only card stores, but specialty stores of any genre are quite a hurdle for people who have never been there before. Therefore, we try to make our products easily available at shopping malls and convenience stores instead of specialty stores. We are also focusing on LAWSON for distribution in convenience stores, so we would like to create a situation where people can get the product by just going to LAWSON.

In this way, I think the first step is for people to buy the game at a place they have been to and experience it at a place they have been to. We are planning events for this summer and beyond, keeping in mind points such as how to lower the hurdle to actually buying and starting to play, how to meet people at the same level as you, and how to make it easier to invite your friends.

Ravika, when you think of places baseball fans have been to, like baseball stadiums?

Kobayashi I am sure it would be interesting to hold the tournament at a baseball stadium. Not only at a ballpark like Koshien, but also at related facilities such as Tokyo Dome City or the Museum of Famous Players. It would also be great if we could play the game on the mound and even raise the fans' heads when the team wins the championship. Of course, it may be difficult to realize all of these things, but we would like to plan tournaments and events that are unique to the "Dream Order.

Ravika: Last question then!　What do you think is important for the TCG industry as a whole to gain even more new users and become even more exciting?

Kobayashi What I am a little concerned about is that it would be better to think on an industry-wide basis rather than on a manufacturer-by-manufacturer basis for each TCG released. Of course, their own sales are important, but what about the industry as a whole?

Of course, their own sales are important, but I think it would be good for each manufacturer to have a greater sense of camaraderie in terms of how the industry should act as a whole.

We have changed the name of the event from "Bushiroad Card Game Festival" to "Card Game Festival," increased the number of areas where TCG titles from other companies are handled within the event, and changed it into an event where TCG can be enjoyed beyond the borders of manufacturers. We believe that this should expand further, and that the moment when the entire TCG industry joins hands will surely come in the future. In order to further expand from the current user base, the industry as a whole will have to think about this.

In a smaller scale, I think it would be good if there were specialty card stores where customers could easily enter. I used to work in a card store myself, and I think there is only so much you can do, since not every store has a lot of employees. However, I have heard that some companies put a lot of effort into training their staff. Card stores not only sell cards, but also hold tournaments and events, so I think players' impressions will change depending on how the officials and store staff respond. It is a small thing, but I think it would be a good idea to fix the whole situation from such a point of view.

Ravika I see. So it's important for the industry as a whole to take a hands-on approach and for the staff to become more empowered as well. Well then, any last comments for the users?

Kobayashi While there are many different TCGs these days, we created "Dream Order" with the hope that people will come to love baseball from a different angle. We hope that those who start playing "Dream Order" will be able to support their favorite baseball team as a sport and also experience a new form of baseball through the cards. I hope that this will lead them to play many other TCGs, including "Dream Order".

He attempted to assassinate Sakamoto on the orders of the organization, but on the contrary, he was touched by the warmth of the Sakamoto family and retired from being an assassin. He retires from his job as an assassin and starts working at Sakamoto Shoten. He is a target of Sakamoto's and admires him.

Comment by Nao Higashiyama as Aoi Sakamoto

My name is Nao Higashiyama, and I will be playing the role of Aoi Sakamoto.
I think the charm of this work is that it is just so high-spirited and poignant, and each character shines vividly. In the recording sessions, I felt that each cast member was stoically trying to leave their mark on the story. ...... And as the story progresses, it becomes more and more thrilling. And on a personal note, this is my first time playing a mother ......! I look forward to working with you in the future!

Aoi Sakamoto (left)

Hana is a cheerful and energetic girl who grew up with a lot of love from her mother and father!
I played Hana so that she could be at home amidst the powerful action and comical scenes.
We hope you will enjoy the unique and charming characters who are unforgettable once you see them!

I am pleased to be the voice of Heisuke Shimo, played by Yoshiaki Suzuki.
I really like the realistic composition of the original work and the battle scenes and am happy to be part of such a super cool action piece. Heisuke is a top-notch sniper and a very nice guy who loves his friends and has a pure heart, but he is a hard worker. However, he is a hard worker. He is a hard worker!
Please! Please support him a lot! Please support him a lot!

Heisuke Mashimo

Heisuke Mashimo is a highly skilled irregular sniper who shoots through opponents with ricochets. He was fired from his job at an assassin company due to his poor abilities other than shooting, but Sakamoto recognized his skill and made him a member of the team.
