25 Years of Gran Turismo – Interview with Gran Turismo 7 Director Kazunori Yamauchi

Gran Turismo 7 (GT7) is fast approaching its launch on to the PS4 and PS5 later this March, just in time for the series 25th anniversary and we got to speak with the game’s director Kazunori Yamauchi.

How fitting is it that this series about slick cars and the life of enthusiasts obsessed with slick cars was created and directed by one of those enthusiasts himself? We had the opportunity to interview Kazunori Yamauchi, the CEO of Polyphony Digital and director of every main series Gran Turismo game since the first back on the PS1 in 1997.

Kazunori Yamauchi
Mr. Yamauchi is not only a director but also a professional racing driver, who has entered 10 official competitions. You could say he’s pretty dedicated to his craft. However there is more to ‘car culture’ as he calls it than just races but also the overall lifestyle of a genuine motorhead, and owning big expensive cars you can drive and look cool in. This is something Kazunori Yamauchi has always aimed to replicate in the GT series.
He told us a bit about the making of Gran Turismo 7 as well as cars culture in general and how the game goes beyond simply simulating racing but speaks to the community as a whole.

Gran Turismo and car cutlure

For Kazunori Yamauchi, Gran Turismo is not just a car simulator but a car life simulator. We asked him if he’d describe his personal definition of car life and what aspects of GT7 would best show the concept.
He said the game’s best feature was the fact that it took place in a car-based city, where people’s main hobbies and desires relate to racing and learning about cars.
“I believe the World Map really reflects that the most because it represents the fact that this is a sort of a car resort or a car-based city.”
Gran Turismo Cafe

The GT Cafe is an area in Gran Turismo 7 that is pretty much a dedicated love letter to the art of automobiles.
Here you can listen to engineers of some of the most famous brands to ever put rubber to road talk about their achievements while looking at a menu to select quests to unlock new cars sorted by their collection and brand.

We asked Yamauchi what was his inspiration for the GT Cafe and if it was the best choice for new players to start with. He told us that the cafe was an idea he had apparently wanted to put in the games since GT1 on PS1.
“When I first wrote the project overview for Gran Turismo back in 1992, the GT Cafe was something that was actually there. It’s actually very interesting although it took 25 years until GT7 for the cafe to be actually included in the project plan.
And the thing about the cafe features it acts sort of a salon, where people gather and talk about cars, that is the kind of place that a cafe is. If you see a cafe in Vienna in Austria, you can see where musicians gather and talk about music. So in GT7, it’s a cafe for car enthusiasts and car lovers where you can go there and hear interesting stories about cars.
In the Gran Turismo’s most of the past, especially like back in Gran Turismo 1, it used to be that you’re giving this entire world from the outset and the players could kind of explore what they want through the game and find these features on their own. But nowadays, we believe that you sort of need navigation to really explain to people what it’s about cars or tuning, the meaning of the culture behind cars. So that’s what the cafe stands for. It’s a place that really expands your world and knowledge about cars and culture.”
There are about 30 menu books of cars in the cafe and he says the developers plan to add even more in the future.
Carpool Karaoke

Another new mode that we asked for more information on is the ‘Music Rally’. This mode is all about taking a chill drive and listening to some tunes while you align your speed to the tempo of the music. The game has an enormous library of tracks that cover a wide range of multiple genres and this mode is all about chilling to beat and enjoying the ride.
“The music rally has a few objectives to it. One of which is to really enjoy the music. The second is to allow new players to learn these tracks without always being in a hardcore racing situation. Along with the Music Rally, also there is Music Replay that allows you to really enjoy the music by combining your driving replay and matching it to the music.
But the point of the mode is to really listen to the all the way to the end of the music track by getting those beat extensions and to acquire that is actually not going to be very difficult. If the player knows and remembers the track, they should be able to clear it fairly easily.
Another important thing is that the Music Rally is a great mode to get your kids to start playing it for the first time. Because it’s very simple. It allows you to really enjoy music and racing at the same time. So, rather than giving the entire full system of Gran Turismo to kids from a start, that would be a little bit too complex for them.”

Music Rally will also offer a streamer mode. We asked if this meant that licensed songs will be free for streaming and for people to create content?
“Music rights are free for all. You can record with the background music that you want to use and then use it in the music replay mode to create a new recording of the car at different angles and speeds. The process is really fun to do.”
People aren’t talking about cars

Unfortunately, Yamauchi believes that car culture isn’t what it used to be as not a lot of people are talking about it the same way they did back in the day. We asked him to tell us more about this is and how it shaped the making of GT7.
“I believe society has changed quite a bit in the last 25 years. So, before you purchase a new car, you have this moment where your world sort of expands before you. And it was an experience that was shared by everyone from older students to younger students, from parents to child, that was the way it was 25 years ago kids all played with mini cars and hot wheels and things.
But nowadays, you have a lot more things to play with your smartphone, of course, video games and things like that as well. So, there are so many other fun things that kids are exposed to nowadays. Relatively there are just a few people talking about cars anymore. But there are still great things that should be appreciated.”
Well, hopefully, Gran Turismo 7 can get more people back into talking about cars.
25 years of Gran Turismo

Gran Turismo celebrates its 25th anniversary this year and Kazunori Yamauchi has been with the series since day one. We asked what kind of emotions he felt looking back on the first game and what the original Playstation version meant to him personally?
“I think the one thing is that the development of Gran Turismo was really started back in 1992, five years before the game’s release. So in that respect, we’ve been working for about 30 years with the same team. But to have been able to work with the same team for 30 years. It’s something that I’m very appreciative of. Because I really doubt that there are any other games like that where you have that kind of team.
The other thing is that I’m also very appreciative of the users who have supported this series for the last 25 years because, without them, it would have been impossible to continue it for so long. Back when Gran Turismo came out in 1997, it was a very experimental title. But, it’s something that we wanted to keep being innovative and experimental even now today, and that’s really satisfying for me to see.”

It was pretty eye-opening speaking to Kazunori Yamauchi about Gran Turismo. I personally always saw the series as just another racing game franchise but with really high-quality car models but it’s clear that to him and the game’s fans, it is far more than that. It’s a way for motorheads to embrace their love of fast expensive cars, their history, their construction, and the feeling of being able to drive them.
And let’s be honest, with how expensive some of these metal beasts are, this is probably the closest we’re gonna get to take them for a ride, and with some electric new music tracks to boot.
Gran Turismo 7 is crossing onto the PS4 and PS5 on March the 4th 2022. Check out our preview of the game for more information.

Sega is Delisting The Classic Sonic Games Ahead of Sonic Origins Release

Sega says that they will be delisting Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles, and Sonic CD from digital stores on May 20th, 2022 coinciding with the release of the Sonic Origins game collection.

The standalone titles will no longer be available for Xbox, Playstation, PC, and mobile devices. They have said however that Sonic The Hedgehog 1 & 2 will still be available through Sega Ages on the Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo Switch Online Sega Genesis Collection.

Sega will be releasing the Sonic Origins collection on the 23rd of June, just a month after the delisting of these games. This is an updated re-release of the games with new content.
This is not the first time that companies have delisted older versions of games when newer versions are released.

Nintendo took Pikmin 3 and Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze off the Wii U eShop when the games were ported to the Switch. Rockstar Games similarly pulled the original versions of the PS2 Grand Theft Auto games following the Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – Definitive Edition. In all of these cases, the games were eventually returned to digital stores.
As you can imagine, the practice is unpopular among fans as the companies are essentially trying to pigeonhole people into buying the new releases as opposed to the cheaper older versions.
Sonic Origins will come to PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S on June 23rd 2022.

Cyberpunk Edgerunners Review – The Video Game Anime That’s So Much More Than The Game

Cyberpunk Edgerunners is a piece of media you don’t often see nowadays. It’s a new anime acting as a spin-off adaption for the CD Project Red video game Cyberpunk 2077 in partnership with Netflix. The game’s launch was, divisive, to say the least, but the anime is proving to not only be more memorable than the game but outright one of the best anime to come out this year.

Perhaps that’s to be expected considering it was made by Studio Trigger and directed by Hiroyuki Imaishi, the madman behind Kill La Kill, Promare, and Gurren Lagan. Edgerunners takes the style, and balls-to-the-walls action of these past projects and drags it into the dark sleazy underbelly of the Cyberpunk world. It’s violent, grim, poignant at times, and all around a wild ride.

The degree of life becomes the measure

The story of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners follows David Martinez, a high school drop without any direction in life. After his mother dies, everything changes when he meets a mysterious woman named Lucy, and ends up joining a group of criminals known as cyberpunks. This is where David’s life as an “Edgerunner” begins.

At only 10 episodes, the anime is short but the impact of each really pierces the soul. The anime moves at a brisk but steady pace, doing a good job at introducing the world of Night City and its many inhabitants and future technology without feeling overwhelmed or bogged down in unnecessary lore. Just looking at the detailed backgrounds you can see just how much is going on even if it’s just some dude going balls deep into the VR.
Being a Trigger Production, Edgerunners is packed with bombastic action scenes and setpieces but these are also set between a number of introspective slower scenes. The anime does a good job of showing just how harsh living in Night City can be between the constant crime, complete disregard for the affably low, and oppressive control of mega-corporations. You learn to understand what each character wants out of such a seedy hellhole: their goals, weakness, connections, and how these all lead to their inevitable downfall.
A Great Running On The Edge

Speaking of the characters, they are the heart of anime. David serves as a great lead, going from a well-meaning punk to a top edge runner trying to protect his friends as the world breaks down in front of him. Our lead heroine Lucy is likewise pretty interesting. She starts as the typical sultry femme fatale however the anime then goes further to show her insecurities and surprisingly genuine goal of going to the moon (because Trigger can’t have one series without space).
Outside of the two leads the rest of the crew are a lot of fun. Special mention has to go to Maine, the big bulky leader of the group and cool mentor to David as well as the trigger-happy tyke-bomb Rebecca. At this point, you’ve probably seen Rebecca pop up around social media and I can assure you she’s just as psychologically adorable as fans make her out to be.
These guys play off each other perfectly and within a couple of episodes, you can completely buy that they’re a real team and enjoy being around each other. They go to the bar, pull jobs in synch, and have some incredibly witty banter. You want to see more of them and when bad things start happening to each of them, you really feel it in how the others react.
Replicating Night City

As you’d expect from the guys that did Kill La Kill, the backgrounds are beautiful and the action scenes are top-notch. David has the ability to move at high speeds for short bursts of time and uses it to great effect to attack enemies. The sci-fi technology in general leads to highly creative weapons, camera angles, and fight scenes very reminiscent of The Matrix or Ghost in The Shell.
This is enhanced by the series’ great use of blood. Fatality rates are high in Night City with characters dying left and right, some very abruptly and in explicitly gruesome detail. Throughout the anime you see heads come off, metal skulls smashed to bits, and every gory detail in between. Like all good uses of violence, however, it never feels explorative. The violence shows just how dangerous being a cyberpunk is and how most of these characters will live short lives as a result. As you grow more concerned, you genuinely start worrying about who’s gonna be next and what fate they might meet.
Conclusion

The best thing that I can say about Cyberpunk Edgerunners, is that I completely forgot that this was from a game. It felt like its own standalone piece taking you into a fascinating world of crimes, hacking, and a very punk attitude but also one with a lot of heart, of people struggling against the bad hand they’ve been dealt and breaking free in the most self-destructive way possible.
Studio Trigger continues to be one of the most innovative anime studios in the industry, balancing out humanity, action and spectacular visuals, and world-building. Seriously, even the space stuff felt better planned this time around. If you’re a fan of their previous shows, this is one of their best, and if you just like good action/thriller anime, you’ll find yourself plugged in.
It also made me want to try to game out. That’s something I doubt many people wanted to do after the game’s disastrous launch so it succeeded on that front as well.

U Works’ Gold Gundam Figures Ensure Your Wallet Is No Longer Bound By Gravity

U Works has announced limited production of solid gold Gundam figures, with 1/100 depictions of the RX 78-2 Gundam as well as Char’s Zaku from Mobile Suit Gundam.

The figures are the size of their MG counterparts, and made from 24 karat gold. These don’t use the same molds as the Gunpla kits, however, and appear to be based off of the animation models instead, with the RX 78-2 having its weirder proportions from the original anime. In addition, it doesn’t look like they’re gonna be poseable, so don’t expect to make any incredible stop-motion flexes.

Next Mega Man X DiVE Original, Droitclair, makes her debut

As part of the continuing plot developments of Mega Man X DiVE, the game is getting more original characters added to the cast, with Droitclair making her debut after iCO. This gal is capable of summoning spirits and using magic circles to attack, while her role in the story will be something you have to find out for yourself.

Droitclair’s bag seems to be where her ‘friends’ are kept, unleashed once she enters battle. “Evil Calling” uses these ‘friends’ to attack and mark a location, making a teleportation circle where Droitclair can use to get close and attack. “Evil Spirit Barrier” causes enemies in its radius receive continuous damage and debuffing attack. Her passive allows her spirits to counterattack. At 35% HP or lower, she can summon a larger spirit to attack.

Dim Card set EX2 Tamers expands Digimon Tamers evolutions for Vital Bracelet

From the announcement of the Digivice V to Vital Bracelets for Kamen Rider and Ultraman, a new Tamers Dim Card set was also announced.

Officially titled “Dim Card set EX2 Digimon Tamers”, this set of dim cards differs from the Dim Card GP vol. 01 Digimon Tamers. EX2 Tamers is not a gacha product but is instead purchasable just like any other Dim Card set. Also, Impmon and its subsequent evolutions are not part of EX2 Tamers, which will only feature the main Digimon of the series.

Minions: The Rise of Gru Review – They Gru on Me

Minions: The Rise of Gru releases on July 1st in the US (June 30th in Malaysia), but we watched an early screening of it for this review.

If for some bizarre reason, you’re not aware of what these yellow bean-like people are, Minions: The Rise of Gru is a sequel to Minions (2015), which itself is a prequel to 2010’s Despicable Me. Chronologically, the film takes place after Minions and before Despicable Me.

Related Posts

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

With that out of the way, let’s get into this review of Minions: The Rise of Gru!

Writing
Unlike its prequel, The Rise of Gru features a young Gru (Steve Carrell) as the film’s primary protagonist. However, fans of Minions shouldn’t fret as Kevin, Bob and Stuart are back and still a big focus of the movie, alongside a new, even chubbier Minion, Otto.

Even though most of the characters are pretty flat and one-dimensional, they’re so over the top and flamboyant that they’re really fun to watch. The film’s main antagonists are the Vicious Six, and they’re great. Even though our attention is divided between five of them (one of them was kicked out of the group), they do a nice job of commanding the audience’s attention. For example, one of the villains is a Nun, who uses nunchucks, and her name is literally Nun-chuck. Also, one of the members is a guy with one hand replaced with a lobster claw named Jean Clawed. During the credits, the theatre laughed because we saw that Jean Clawed is played by Jean-Claude Van Damme.

Overall, the film is very easy to watch and there are rather comedic moments here and there. Fans of Minions will absolutely love how wholesome this film can get. There’s also a pretty good message and lesson to learn from this movie, so this gets my seal of family-friendly approval.

Visuals and Animation
The Rise of Gru is extremely colourful and aesthetically pleasing. It takes place in the 70s, the peak of disco (one of the Vicious Six is literally named Belle Botom). The characters look vibrant and individually distinct. Also, the movie takes place just before and during Chinese New Year, so expect vibrant, auspicious backgrounds and environments.
Of course, the stars of the film are the Minions. They’re up to their usual Minions shenanigans, fumbling their tasks while being cute. Malaysian fans will also be in for a treat, as they’ll utter some familiar-sounding words in Minionese.
Minions aside, the human cast is very well animated. They’re extremely expressive and fun to watch. Just like Sing 2, Illumination’s previous animated film which came out last year, it’s just a joy to see how characters move and behave.
Also, special mention goes to the acupuncture lady played by Michelle Yeoh. She looks like a typical Chinese aunty, but like any character played by Michelle Yeoh, is a kung fu badass. Even though her fight scene was short, it was really fun to watch.

Sound and Music
The Rise of Gru also delivered in this department. The film’s cast is extremely star studded. You have Steve Carrell, Michelle Yeoh, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and even Mary Poppins herself Julie Andrews lending their voices to the movie. I’m happy to report that their performances match their resume and the expressiveness of the visuals.
Aside from the Minions’ wacky sounds that they make when they talk, the film uses quite a wide range of music. From rock to cabaret, most of these songs were from my parents’ generation, so I think older audiences would also find this aspect of the movie enjoyable.

Closing Thoughts
At the end of the day, Minions: The Rise of Gru is a huge marketing tool to get more children to beg their parents and girlfriends to beg their boyfriends for Minions merch. On this front, I believe that the film has done a spectacular job in reminding fans why they love Minions so much. It’s cute, colourful, funny, wholesome and overall a very feel-good movie.
If you’re looking for a cinematic experience that will blow your mind, then this film is not for you. However, if you just want to have a good time, then Minions: The Rise of Gru will do the trick. If you’re forced into watching this by a Minions fan, don’t worry—it’s actually not as bad as you think, unless you have a burning hatred for Minions for some reason.
For more details, visit the movie’s website.

Pros
Cons

Cute and funny, perfect movie for the whole family
If you hate Minions, you’re hatred will probably become worse

Visually appealing and expressively animated

Great music and performance from the actors

[ TGS 2022 ] Forspoken Preview – Your Friendly Neighbourhood Elden Ring

Forspoken getting delayed aside, attendees at Tokyo Game Show 2022 could give a slice of the game a try. If you haven’t heard about the game before, it features Frey Holland, getting transported into another world, a once thriving land now corrupted by a devastating blight. She becomes a reluctant hero to save the last remnants of the people, and get some answers in the process.

FREY’S THIRTY MINUTES
Compared to the trailers you might have seen, the action gameplay feels incredibly fast-paced. Even so, the dodge mechanic in the game seems quite forgiving, so long you time it right to avoid those attacks. The demo offered up to a boss battle which despite the aforementioned leniency and selecting Easy difficulty, it still was a challenging slice.

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

When it comes to finding a playstyle, the demo showcased around 25 or more spells split into two different schools, which basically are either melee- or range-focus. Handily enough, unlearning and relearning other spells is free. Upgrading these spells require you to clear relevant spell quests.

Tweet to @GamerBraves

Wonderfully enough, the exploration can also be done at a quick pace as you have the ability to speed up and hop around to travel fast. For a demo, the map was surprisingly large, which would imply even more areas to zip around for the full game. Besides your personal speed boosts, you get a grappling hook in the form of a spell; to start, the range is pretty short, but I would assume that this can be upgraded eventually.
AND THE ADVENTURE PAUSES

They didn’t try to cram in any story in a 30 minute demo, so if you didn’t already know anything about Forspoken, this wouldn’t shed any more light. However, it does intrigue, and has a learning curve. Learning how to switch your spells around and fully utilizing either school’s offensive spells can make for incredibly high skill play. The options would potentially grow depending on what the myriad side quests around offer in terms of spells, items, and resources. Crafting and upgrading opens up the possibility of highly customization and flexibility, too. The fast pace is helped by attacks not consuming a typical stamina or mana resource, and you don’t necessarily have to charge them up to have them be effective.
As it stands, Forspoken just feels like it needs to be given a proper chance to show its stuff, so we’ll see where that road takes us.

Touken Ranbu Warriors Review – Protecting history with the prettiest boys in the timeline

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

Touken Ranbu Warriors has finally reached the hands of the non-Japanese speakers in English, about 3 months since its original Japanese release. The game is available for Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam, with the Steam version having up to 4K support and 60 FPS.

For the record, this review is based on the Nintendo Switch version.

HANDLE SWORD WITH CARE
The options menu is not very extensive, with things like:

System

Difficulty: Easy / Normal / Hard. On Easy, dodges are automatic
Vibration On / Off
Auto / Manual Lock-on
Display Enemy HP: All / Strong Enemies Only / None
Battle Hints On / Off
Message Speed: Slow / Normal / Fast / Instant
Subtitles On / Off
DLC Outfit Applicable Location: Honmaru / Honmaru and Replay

Camera

Vertical / Horizontal: Standard / Inverted
Speed: Slow / Slightly Slow / Normal / Slightly Fast / Fast

Sound

Music / SFX / Voice

The control schemes can be changed between “Easy Mode” and “Regular Mode”, with Easy Mode allowing you to just do a single button mash. Unusually enough, you’re allowed to remap the buttons on the Nintendo Switch. We have the technology!!!

HISTORY LESSON WITH THE LADS
As the story goes, the 15 playable sword boys – Touken Danshi – reside at a honmaru which does not have a master. Nonetheless, Konnosuke and the bureaucracy of the oblique Time Government task them to maintain the history’s timeline, in the hopes that they may someday be able to welcome their master home. As they travel back and forth incidents that are key to each team member’s respective histories, they are joined by Omokage, who’s been going solo all this while.
While the fixes seem very linear at first, one does begin to wonder just how far reaching the History Retrograde Army is…

For the fans, the story is actually both quite intriguing and immersive, seeing how the swords, while acknowledging their roles as weapons, do note that some of the “real timeline” events are quite unsavoury. After all, a number of these are predicated on ensuring key members die.

I have to emphasize for the fans, as I don’t think the game does a very good job at establishing the links between them. It does get said in text later on to a degree, but if you don’t already have the context, you might be wondering why the hell Yamanbagiri Chougi is being such a little shit to Yamanbagiri Kunihiro, for example. You can get a little more interaction between the characters as all of them have Bond Conversations with each other, some of them unlocking only after completing enough story missions.
IN A FLURRY OF SAKURA
It’s honestly quite astonishing how many different animations each attack can have depending on you prior inputs or combos: sure, they all have roughly the same base animation, but they do each have their own flair. The recycled animations aside, the characters respond differently to characters they end up getting paired with, which makes it more unique. The camera really sucks ass sometimes though.

There’s also something to be said about the character models and their physics as they flow quite well, and sometimes get stuck – both in the expected way because of how much fabric there is, and the buggy way. The OST is quite nice too as each sword has their own leitmotif, separate from the ones they already have in the browser game.

All the lads have their voice actors reprise their roles as you might expect, besides Omokage who’s new to this title. The 3D models admittedly have some jank in the in-game cutscenes over the pre-rendered ones, but they’ve given enough thought to make them expressive as they converse. Incidentally, the localization seems to be different from the Johren browser game, with several terms left untranslated and honorifics used. I can’t speak for the browser game since my main account is on the Japanese side, but I did find some of the dialogue amusing. Make of that what you will.

All DLC are cosmetics, and are practically priced akin to daylight robbery for more music, honmaru backgrounds and internal affairs outfits. If you’re a doting saniwa with more cash to spare, then feel free to dole out the koban for your beloveds.
Additionally, there’s a photo mode with a selection of filters, stickers, and the like. I didn’t play around with this all that much.
MORE FRAMES THAN A BROWSER
I say this with nothing but affection, but yes, Touken Ranbu Warriors is a much more interactive game than the original game, and way higher polygon count. I still have no idea how I kept playing the original game, and indeed, do wonder what exactly people spend so much on in the browser game – resources, one supposes – but that’s neither here nor there. Anyway.

The core gameplay loop of Warriors is heading into the various instanced areas and mowing down several hundred History Retrograde Army (HRA) troops while trying to fulfill any given objectives. This can be as easy as just mashing all the buttons you’re allowed to, to missions requiring a little more finesse. Some battles can have “hidden” objectives needing you to stray off the linear path to actually clear the mission, or you’ll get a fail state. Fortunately, even if you miss it the first time, trying again will let you see what it is so that you’re never unclear on your goals. Konnosuke can also assist you, an option you can turn off if you prefer.

Maybe your target suddenly becomes an enemy, so you’ll have to be careful not to accidentally take them out. You could get a “stealth” mission that somewhat leans on the fourth wall regarding the mechanics. This isn’t a stealth-based game after all. Generally speaking, just fire off your combos and watch the lads show off their stuff in their special moves, or make some flashy combo with their partner whoever it may be. The more powerful attacks can’t be spammed, as you might expect.
It’s quite easy to get the swords to strip as it happens either on number of hits taken, or damage. You can have someone at 90% HP when their clothes spontaneously rip off, which allows them to charge up their Super faster. They get different voicelines too! The partner sword may or may not also strip, but they can’t actually die until you do so don’t worry about them. They can also strip without you. Truly a string of words that look questionable out of context, Sengo would be proud.

To get you used to the controls and have Emo Kise start his path of character development, the initial chapter only has you control Yamanbagiri Kunihiro and Chougi for the most part. They can get bond dialogue once they return to the honmaru when they reach certain thresholds, and having higher bond also means better combat partners. Anyone you’ve left malewife-ng at the honmaru might be selectable to sortie at random, sometimes also potentially providing bonuses to EXP, resource gain, and the like. Once you’ve cleared a stage, you can repeat it with any duo you prefer for the level grinding. Unfortunately, any story-stage dialogue cannot be skipped so be prepared to hear the same retorts repeatedly.

Characters left at the honmaru do also get EXP each time you return from any sortie, though the level difference would understandably get pretty wide if you’re relying solely on passive EXP gain. When you return, you can opt to play some mini-games that can differ by area, offering bond EXP, koban, or resources where relevant. Mini-games can be quite frustrating depending on which one you get; I’m looking at you, you stupid foxes. Honmaru levels unlock more room space, then later, items in the shop.
Failing to match fox poses.
Aside from pure levels, the sword boys can be further upgraded with skill boards to unlock equippable item slots, increase their stats or add new skills to their repertoire. This should be fairly self explanatory. On Normal mode, the grind kicks in about 13 hours in with the colour-swapped enemies getting beefier and your units needing a lot more material to upgrade, and shop items getting pricier. You will want to grind for Bond between members, too, not just for their conversations, but also for Partner Counters / Follow-Ups in battle.

The game itself is fairly linear with starting chapters focusing on a specific team guaranteed to sortie with the honmaru members selected at random. The lads may come with random bonuses, for increased resource gain, bond EXP or good ol’ EXP. It does feel like the later you go, the more passive EXP you can get, which is pretty good to cut down on some of the grind.
よきかなよきかな
Considering how many popular characters that weren’t included in this game, one does wonder if there’ll be an eventual sequel. There’s plenty of history that they can still cover, like how the stage plays and musicals have done. The (absurdly expensive) DLC is entirely cosmetic, adding in new backgrounds, music and outfits, with “no plans for additional content beyond the DLC items listed”, so there’s room there if they so wish. The loading time isn’t too bad on the Switch, though I think some of the mini-games would be best on a controller.
All in all, Touken Ranbu Warriors can be first and foremost be considered a fanservice game, and quite the well-made one at that. If you simply want a musou experience with some Japanese history lessons thrown in, you can’t really go very wrong with this game.

                                        PROS

                                        CONS

                                        Storyline is both intriguing and educational

                                        Leans closer to needing prior context

                                        Highly enjoyable as a fanservice game both mechanically and in presentation

                                        Camera control problems

                                        DLC is cosmetic only, but also really pricey

                                        While not mandatory, some mini-games are worse than others

                                        Can get quite grindy later

[Review] Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games: The Official Video Game – Going for the Gold Medal but get silver instead

As you all know that next year will be largest olympic event for Japan which that is Tokyo Olympics 2020. To hype up and bring more fans to the event, the Tokyo Olympics 2020 launched a video game honouring the olympic event, Tokyo Olympics 2020. We were one of the lucky ones to be able to review the game.

Right off the start, you’ll be able to choose your avatar and nationality of your own. There is also a customization for you to customize your avatar as well. You can shape up your body however you want but it also comes in with a stat on it. If you don’t like your stats, not to worry because you can change the stats as well.  The stats of your avatar will affect their performance of the sports that they participate. Choose your stats carefully, athletes!

Currently, there are 15 games modes have been offered, more games will be coming soon. You get bored of one game? Just switch to another game with the available game modes they have to offer like Volleyball, Table Tennis and many more .Each game will take around 15 minutes. It really depends on which game mode you chose. Games requires you to trick your opponent like tennis, basketball and volleyball might take a while.

Each game mode has different set of gameplay to it. Some of the game modes can be quite challenging. Some of them are super easy like 100m track, you just needed press X button as fast as you can. Swimming, for example, can quite challenging for me because you have to time the joystick on the right time. Like Baseball, you need need to have a swift fingers to match the bat with the same tiles as the ball.

Once you reached your maximum limit, you can get a power boost. Use the power boost to get that extra push to earn that number one spot. You can use the power boost in the baseball to get that home run or even use it to slam dunk in basketball. Make the crowd goes wild. Take that gold medal home.

The game is perfect for when it comes to playing your friends or your family for the great laughs or create memories together. For singleplayer? It will get boring after playing the game for a few hours. When you go up against NPC, there is not much of  challenge coming from them. Plus, I bet you don’t get satisfied on beating NPC at all since you can’t own it to their face like you would do to your friends. I definitely recommend for you to go in online matches or call up your buddy to enjoy the rest of the evening together.
There will be special guest coming to the game. Mario and Sonic will be coming to Olympic Games 2020 on November 5th. The game will be exclusively on Nintendo Switch and Arcade Games. You get play them in their classic 2D style with the game mode also in 2D! Sonic will have his own Olympic game in iOS and Android in Sonic at the Olymic Games. You can get Olympics Games 2020 with the price of RM 180 and buy the game in the official Playstation store or their official website.

Alban Knox Impersonator Streams To Be Deleted, Says Vtuber

Nijisanji EN’s Alban Knox has said that he would be working with management to remove a most bizarre trend of impersonator streams using his name.

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

YouTube is facing a bizarre trend of channels seemingly having stolen one of Knox’s stream titles for their own streams, in an attempt to seemingly piggyback off the Vtuber’s success.
“Hey guys! I’ve noticed that there are some channels using my name without permission on their streams. I’m working with the ANYCOLOR management team to apply for deletion of this content. I’m sorry for the fans that have been worrying, thanks for your concern and your support!“, Knox says on his Twitter.

“Not gonna lie, this shit has really been stressing me out for some time. We’ll do our best to get to the bottom of it. Having my name associated with stuff like this makes me feel awful. I’m sorry to anyone who hasn’t been able to enjoy content because it’s buried under this crap“, he adds.
The video title seems to have been lifted from a particular Minecraft video by the Vtuber, with every video just using the MINECRAFT TALK AND CHILL title in their own videos.

These videos themselves are a bizarre trip- largely pre-recorded children-targeted videos featuring bright colors and weird sound effects.
Considering several of the videos were flagged under YouTube Kids and the fact that the videos themselves are all just pre-recorded videos, it seems very likely that there’s no actual human involved in this- rather just bots scraping to target content at a specific demographic.
Given the Vtuber’s popularity, there’s a good chance that his title was used simply because it was one of the highest ranking Minecraft videos, though that’s just speculation on our own part.
ANYCOLOR and Nijisanji haven’t released their own statements on the matter.

Blazblue Alternative: Darkwar Trailer Announces Release Date And Shows Gameplay

Blazblue Alternative: Darkwar, the previously announced mobile RPG set in the Blazblue universe has shown off a new trailer, giving us our first proper look at the game.

The game due out in Japan February 16th, and features an RPG system reminiscent of Fate/Grand Order. Although the Blazblue series is primarily a fighting game, it doesn’t look like they meant RPG in the same way that games like Skullgirls Mobile call themselves an RPG.

From the short bursts of combat we’re shown, it looks much more like Fate/Grand Order’s combat, where you choose your attack sequence and then watch the sprites executing it.

It looks like Blazblue Alternative: Darkwar is either a prequel or deals with time travel (not uncommon for Blazblue) as we see what looks to be past versions of characters like Relius Clover and Platinum The Trinity. Despite this, we also see present-day characters like Jin Kisaragi and Naoto Kurogane, who are all in the most recent Blazblue titles Central Fiction and Cross Tag Battle.

There’s also new characters, such as Ciel Suleur, who seemingly have no connection to the rest of the Blazblue cast. In the trailer, she, Kazuma (who looks suspiciously like Hazama from mainline Blazblue) and Trinity are the only characters named.
The game will be available for iOS and Android in Japan, and no English release has been announced as of yet.

Akiba Street – Bringing Anime Culture Back To The Sungei Wang Plaza, Malaysia

This weekend saw the opening of Akiba Street, a new collection of Anime themed stores opening in Sungai Wang in the city center of Kuala Lumpur Malaysia.

The stores are currently holding an opening ceremony from the 1st to the 9th of October with plenty of figurines, keychains, and other merchandise on other.

The art prints section of Komik2
Tucked into the back of the mall, anime fans are greeted by a cavalcade of 6 different anime stores, each focusing on a different aspect of fandom.

Akiba Station: Trading cards (especially Vanguard)
AniHobu: Figurines and keychains
Toyzable: Good Smile Products (Nendoroid and Figma’s) among other figures
Mechadioz: Warhammer figures and paints, and Tokusatsu toys.
TobaToys: Claw Games, complete with a machine that instantly converts Ringgit into tokens.
Komik2: Canvas art prints and more figurines.

It should be noted that pretty much all of these stores are having product sales for the Venue’s opening week ending on the 9th of October.

The life-sized statue of Boa Hancock at AniHonbu
Walking through the brightly colored stores, we were greeted with a life-sized statue of the gorgeous Boa Hancock from One Piece, multiple standees of the Street’s adorable mascot, and several set up tables already seeing the first gatherings of card game enthusiasts ready to duel. Even on the first day, there was already a bustle of cosplayers and anime enthusiasts flooding the halls of the area.
AniHonbu
As a fan of the figure collection, I was surprised by the high amount of variety. AniHobu in particular featured scale figures from many popular franchises including One Piece, Quintessential Quenteplets, and Hatsune Miku, and at a fairly affordable price (not to mention they currently have a buy 2 get 1 free sale). Meanwhile, at Toyzable, the Nendoroid and Figma shelf did not disappoint.
In many ways, it reminds me a lot of the Sungai Wang of old. The mall used to be known for its abundance of anime merchandise stores on the higher floors however many of these were unfortunately forced to close down due to the Covid pandemic. According to AniHonbu co-director Danny Chow, Akida Street sees merchants from across Malaysia coming together to revitalize the Plaza as Kuala Lumpur’s own little Akihabara, a place for anime fans to come, hang out, and enjoy.
“After MCO many of the [anime] shops [in Sungei Wang] began to close down. I remember last time the top floor of Sungei Wang had so many shops with shirts, shoes, figures, and many people visited here. We want to take back the anime, and the cosplayers and bring them all back to Sungai Wang since it’s such a good location, right in the city center, and do it better than before.”
The independent booths at Akiba Stree including Duo Clay & Arts Studio and Selina Clay Art Gallery
Several events are being planned for the opening week of the venue. The highlights (beyond the sales) are the independent merchandise booths for fans to sell handmade items like fan art and clay models much like how a convention would operate. Community and community projects have always been a big part of the anime fandom so it’s good to see Akiba Street reach out to them.

Speaking of the community, there were also many cosplayers who set up booths on Akiba Street to sell photos and other merchandise. One of these cosplayers Shu, dressed as Kirito from Sword Art Online, says he’d like to set up shop on the weekend and believes that if Akiba begins to take off many cosplayers may do the same.
This is just the beginning for Akiba Street, however. Ben Chan, the owner of the trading card store Akiba Station and part of the Akiba Street management team told us that the organizers already have plans to bring new merchants in to set up shop and expand further into the Mall.
“We wish to hold phase 2 in the future. Phase 2 will involve continuing into the downstairs area. Over time we wish for this to become the biggest ACG [Anime, Comic, Game] Mall in Malaysia.”
They also said they wish to hold larger events such as anime cons and will even be holding a maid cafe, featuring lovely local Malaysian maids next weekend on the 8th and 9th of October.
Toyzable/Mechadioz
Speaking with customers at Akiba street their reaction to the first day has been positive. “I think it’s pretty good and has a lot of stuff for Otaku to enjoy. I’m not sure it quite reaches the old Sungei Wang just yet but I think if they keep going it definitely could soon” says one visitor.
As someone who used to frequent ToyGarden and other anime merch shops on the higher floors of Sungei Wang, I’m certainly excited to see the Otaku venues revitalized in such a large way, especially with the inviting they’ve been of the great anime community with fan run booths and cosplayers.
If you’re a fan of anime, manga, or related Otaku-oriented subculture, consider heading down to Sungei Wang and visiting Akiba Street, especially while the opening week sales are still on, those Nendoroids and model kits are looking particularly enticing.

Following Pearl Abyss’s media showcase in Seoul, the much-anticipated MMORPG Black Desert Mobile has now officially started the pre-registration activity today.

Hatsune Miku MtG Music Video Shows Her Get Her Planeswalking On

Hatsune Miku has become the latest in a list of Japanese icons collaborating with Magic: The Gathering (MtG) ahead of the release for Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty.

MtG released a new music video produced by MWK, featuring vocals by Hatsune Miku to promote the upcoming expansion for the popular card game.

The music video features multiple key illustrations from the Kamigawa set, as well as Miku practicing bad deck practices by dropping all her cards into a void, likely spurred by someone hitting her with a Blue Instant and making her discard all of them anyways.
That being said, there’s been no word yet on if the world’s favorite vocaloid would also be coming as a special alternative art for any of the set’s cards.

This has been just one of many collaborations with Japanese artists to promote Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty, which is set in a futuristic Japan-inspired location.
The others have come in the form of special variant cards, such as those by Metal Gear Solid artist Yoji Shinkawa, as well as Fist of the North Star artist Tetsuo Hara., as well as traditional Ukiyo-E illustrations for the game’s Land cards.
It’s also not the first time MtG has collaborated with a musical artist- previously, they’d also announced a collaboration with rapper Post Malone for their Secret Lair line of limited release cards.
