Nico Adventures: Partners in Crime

***Nico Adventures: Partners in Crime*** is an action-adventure video game developed and published by J-Games and released internationally in September 2008. It is the successor to the 2007 video game *Nico Adventures II* and third main entry in the *Nico Adventures* series. Initially released as a launch title on the J-Flash, the game has been released on every J-Games console since.

The game's narrative follows Nico as he re-unites with his long lost brother Pico, who has been searching for Nico for nearly a decade after their parents died. The duo pair up to stop the scientist Palaci from activating a laser that could set an entire city in Japan alight. The game sees the return of Nico's team from the first game (Michael, Arch and Alistair), and does not feature the second game's supporting cast. Gameplay sees the player take control of Nico and, in a small number of levels, Pico, as they explore numerous open-world levels, fight enemies and solve environmental puzzles. Unlike the small-scale approach of its predecessor, *Partners in Crime* features large levels in a variety of locations that each contain a number of different story missions to complete. The game also introduces gunplay to the series, allowing both Nico and Pico to switch from their swords to a designated firearm at any time. The game's overworld is the narrative's central city in Japan, featuring a variety of locations the player can choose to visit to buy and sell certain objects, upgrade weapons and form connections with side characters.

Development of the game began alongside the second game in 2006. Jay Stevenson wrote and directed the game. Shiro Sagisu returned as composer. The game's main title theme was recorded by Alicia Keys and Jack White. To promote the game, the song was performed on a variety of television shows in the United Kingdom and the United States. The game was announced to be a launch title for the J-Flash.

*Partners in Crime* released to overwhelmingly positive reviews. Critics praised all aspects of the gameplay, as well as the graphics, characters, setting, level design, soundtrack and controls. The introduction of Pico was very well received, with many considering him an effective counterpart to Pico, and that their relationship as brothers who hadn't interacted for over two decades was believable and emotionally engaging. The game saw criticism drawn to its narrative, as many critics felt that the game's storyline was shallow and simplistic, and a step down from the previous two games. Despite this, the game received critical acclaim, and won the Game of the Year award at the Video Game Awards in 2008.

The game has been considered the "breakout success" for J-Games and contributed largely to the initial sales of the J-Flash. It topped the charts in multiple regions worldwide. In its first 3 months, *Partners in Crime* had sold over 10 million copies. As of 2023, the game is one of the best-selling in the series, selling over 80 million copies across all platforms. A movie adaptation was released the following year in 2009. The game was succeeded by *Nico Adventures: Isolation*.
J-Entertainment

**J-Entertainment** is a British multinational entertainment company. It is the world's largest entertainment company, and one of the most profitable companies of the 21st century. The company has 3 main subsidiaries: **J-Animations** (which is an animation studio with headquarters in London, England and Tokyo, Japan); **J-Games** (which is a video game development and publishing studio with headquarters based in London, England); and **J-Music** (which is a record label based in England, South Korea and Japan), the latter of which having its own subsidiary, **Jace The Music**. J-Entertainment is known for its high-quality and creative products, as well as its role in pioneering a new age for media.

Founded in 2002 with the creation of J-Animations, Jay Stevenson, founder and CEO, was only 18 years old at the time. The studio produced the anime series *Elixir*, which would go on to air for 14 years and become one of the biggest cultural phenomena of the century. This was followed by the inception of J-Games in 2005, who released their first home console, the J-1, in 2006, finding lukewarm success. It wasn't until 2008 where the company broke into the mainstream with their second console, the J-Flash, which included acclaimed games in its roster, such as *Nico Adventures: Partners in Crime, Platinum, Vengeance, and The Power Game*. It wasn't until 2019, over a decade later, when J-Music was created, absorbing another Jay-founded company, Jace The Music, which had been in existence since 2006. J-Music debuted the western bands Dirago, Ace and Underpass, all of which made waves in the music scene and found great popularity in Europe. It also debuted the J-Rock band Chain Mail, who were received well in Japan, and 4 K-Pop groups: .32P, Decree, Edge and Crown.

As all 3 companies are under the J-Entertainment umbrella, they all share a monetary account along with their own individual ones. This has meant that money can be freely transferred to different companies depending on their needs at the time: One example of this was in 2016, where J-Animations' profits were contributing towards J-Games' funding due to reduced commercial success for the latter. This system, although entirely legal, has produced controversy and has been criticised as a method of 'monopolising the entertainment industry'. All 3 companies also have a minimum wage: the minimum wage of any worker at any J-Entertainment company is £50 an hour, making it one of the most financially beneficial places to work. However, as a result, the acceptance rate is very low due to high demand.

J-Entertainment's impact has been profound: it was named Time's Most Influential Company of the Millennium in 2020, and again a decade later. Many of its products have shaped pop culture, such as *Elixir,* which has been cited as bringing anime into the mainstream, and *Unleashed*, which became the world's best selling video game franchise of all time. Jay Stevenson has been highly regarded as one of the most successful businessmen of all time.

**"Lucifer"** is a 2022 single by Teyvat boy group Edge. It was released on January 18, 2022 by J-Music as the third and final single from the group's self-titled debut album *Edge*. The song is a 1980s-inspired electronica song that compares a two-faced lover to the devil. The lyrics contain themes of oppression, narcissism, control, possession and dependence. The song was produced by Jay Stevenson.

"Lucifer" released to acclaim from critics who cited it as another consistent release from the group. The techno-style instrumental was praised as being unique and "timeless". The group's vocal performances were also the subject of positive feedback, as were the lyrics and the concept of the song. Most agreed that the single was an improvement over its predecessor, "Favourite". "Lucifer" became known for its highly complex and difficult tutting sequences in the choreography, which helped cement Edge as a performance group, aided by their string of upbeat singles. "Lucifer" peaked atop the Gaon chart and the South Korean Hot 100 for two consecutive weeks. The release of the single resulted in a 56% increase in sales of the album. To promote the song, Edge performed on a variety of South Korean music shows, ultimately winning 11 of them. The single also charted in the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Canada.

Since its release, "Lucifer" has made a substantial impact in the South Korean music industry for its "iconic" choreography and vocal harmonies. The song has sold over 500,000 copies and has achieved just under 350 million streams, making it the second most streamed song by the group, behind "Superhuman". Known as the "DJ's Favourite", Lucifer also received substantial airplay in South Korea. At the 2022 MAMAs, the song was nominated for Song of the Year, although it ultimately lost out to Ive's "Love Dive".

The single is a staple of Edge's live performances, serving as the opener to all of their concerts. It remains one of Edge's most well-known works, both domestically and internationally.

Elixir

***Elixir*** is a British-Japanese Shonen anime created, written and directed by Jay Stevenson and produced by J-Animations. The series aired from February 2004 to December 2018 on numerous channels in a variety of countries: it aired on TV Tokyo in Japan, BBC One in England and NBC in the USA, amongst others. The series contained 20 seasons, and 685 episodes. *Elixir* always aired on Sundays, although in some seasons with more episodes, it would also air on Thursdays, broadcasting two episodes per week. The series has been collected into 76 DVD and Blu-Ray volumes, each containing from 8 to 10 episodes and featuring unique artwork on the cover. As of 2021, it streams digitally internationally on Netflix.

*Elixir* follows the story of a group of young adults living in the fictional nation of Pacaroi, which is ruled by an evil dictator known as Father, and 15 ancient tribes alongside him. Saruki, one of the protagonist's fathers, creates a liquid called Elixir that forms a dome around the Central, the capital city of Pacaroi, sealing the civilians away from Father. Thus, the series focuses on the attempts of the protagonists to overthrow the 15 Great Tribes of Pacaroi and liberate the country. Despite the show's clear overarching narrative, the series' main focus shifts from arc to arc.

The series was created by Jay Stevenson and was pitched, and rejected, by a number of different Japanese animation studios. Studio Pierrot liked the idea and the money Jay was willing to put towards it, so gave Jay the materials to start his own animation studio with the help of some of Pierrot's animators. Writing and storyboarding began in 2002. The series features an extensive ensemble English voice cast including Jay Stevenson himself, as well as Johnny Yong Bosch, Yuri Lowenthal, Todd Haberkorn, Erika Harlacher, Derek Stephen Prince, Max Mittelman and David Lodge in regular protagonist roles, with Keith Silverstein, Kyle Hebert, Robbie Daymond and Brad Swaile in regular antagonist roles, amongst others.

*Elixir* became a worldwide phenomenon during and after its initial run. On average, it produced over 100 million viewers per episode as a result of it's extensive dubbing and simultaneous airing in numerous countries. The popularity of the show was immediate and resulted in new animators quickly being hired to increase production quality. The series has received acclaim for its characters, storytelling, animation and soundtrack. It has won 9 Primetime Emmy Awards, 12 BAFTAs and 35 Tokyo Anime Awards amongst its many accolades. Critics have noted a golden age spanning from Season 5 to Season 11. The series' popularity remained throughout the series' run and it remains, by numbers, J-Animations' biggest commercial success.
Nico Adventures II

***Nico Adventures II*** is an action-adventure video game developed and published by J-Games and released internationally in July 2007. It is the successor to the 2006 video game *Nico Adventures*, and the second main entry in the *Nico Adventures* series. Initially released on the J-1, it has been released on every J-Games console since.

The game's narrative features Nico, the series' teddy bear protagonist, finding the sword, which he claimed at the end of the first game, stolen by a billionaire known as Lionel, who lives in a refurbished castle overlooking a small countryside town in England. Nico teams up with Carl, a rabbit who was fired by Lionel for giving back stolen goods to their original owners, in order to infiltrate the castle and take Lionel down. Gameplay sees Nico making his way through the castle, fighting enemies and solving puzzles in order to progress. Certain levels allow the player to control Carl, usually in stealth segments. The game takes place over the course of 2 in-game months, and gives the player freedom to explore the castle whenever they would like to, in whatever way they want to, although some areas are locked behind puzzles that can only be solved after certain points in the game. The game also features an overworld of Gallin, a small village where Nico and Carl set up headquarters. In this area, Nico takes part in side quests and forms bonds with the villagers.

Development of the game began in early 2006, just as the first game was nearing completion. The game was designed to give the player more freedom compared to the linear structure of levels in the first game. Unlike the first game, which saw Nico travelling across the world, *Nico Adventures II* is comparably more small-scale, with the majority of the main narrative taking place in one location. The series' main theme was recorded by Chris Cornell. The game's soundtrack was composed by Shiro Sagisu. Writer and director Jay Stevenson responded to criticism over the game's titular character by "toning down" Nico's arrogance and making him more relatable to the audience.

The game released to positive reviews. Critics praised it as an improvement over its predecessor. The gameplay, visuals, soundtrack, characters and narrative were all praised. Criticism was drawn to the game's controls, which many found to be clunky at times, especially in Carl's segments. Many reviewers also negatively responded to the removal of Nico's friends, Arch, Michael and Alistair, in favour of Carl. The antagonist was praised as being engaging and enthusiastic, whilst maintaining "a strong aura of evil".

*Nico Adventures II* was a commercial success, selling over two and a half million copies on the J-1 alone. As of 2022, the game has sold over 20 million copies across all platforms. An animated film adaptation of the same name was released in 2008. It was succeeded by *Nico Adventures: Partners in Crime*.
Favourite

Single by Edge

**"Favourite"** is a 2021 single by Teyvat boy group Edge, released on November 25, 2022 by J-Music as the second single from the album *Edge*. The song was written by Kenzie and produced by K.K. Slider. The song contains themes of love, desire, control and tragedy. Musically, the song has been described as an R&B pop dance track with an "addictive signature whistle sound and rich harmonic vocals", the former being a motif present throughout many of K.K. Slider's own songs.

The single released to positive reviews from critics, who praised the vocal performances of the group, namely Gorou, the production of the instrumental, the lyrics and concept. Many viewed it as inferior to its predecessor "Superhuman" however. The song released alongside the album, and both releases managed to top their respective charts. "Favourite" peaked atop the Gaon chart for 3 consecutive weeks, and also managed to achieve the number 1 spot for one week on the South Korean billboard. Overseas, the song charted in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. To promote the song, the group performed on multiple South Korean music shows, ultimately gaining 8 wins. The single went on to sell nearly 400,000 copies, and achieved over 250 million streams on Spotify.

"Favorite" has since been referred to as the weakest single from the album it was on, having little cultural impact compared to Edge's other singles from the record, although it is still viewed as a strong release in Edge's discography. It has been performed on all of Edge's live shows, and was featured in many year-end lists for 2021. The song was succeeded by "Lucifer" in January 2022.
After Life

***After Life*** is a 2020 British-Japanese animated coming-of-age romance film written and directed by Jay Stevenson, and produced and animated by J-Animations. It is the first, and currently only, feature film made by the animation studio.

The film follows Harry, a 15-year-old boy who is killed in a train derailment in Canada and awakes in the afterlife. He is helped to settle into his new reality by fellow 15-year-old Caleb, who is a worker in the afterlife whose job it is to help newly arrived souls settle in. The pair form a romantic relationship throughout the course of the movie, however Caleb stays with Harry longer than he was told to, and is thus recalled to be assigned a new soul, leading to the pair being separated forever.

Development of the film began in early 2017. *After Life* premiered on January 19, 2020 to positive reviews from critics, who praised its characters, plot and emotional moments, whilst criticising the logic and worldbuilding found within the script. The film was a box-office success, grossing $201 million USD against a budget of $30 million.
Blue Orangeade

Single by Edge

**"Blue Orangeade"** is a 2023 single by Teyvat boy group Edge. It was released on March 7, 2023 by J-Music, and is the third and final single from the album *Home.* Musically, it is an upbeat, 90s inspired R&B track, with lyrics of optimism and themes of nostalgia, culminating in a "retro" concept.

The single released to positive reviews from music critics who praised its "refreshing" sound, production and concept, whilst criticism was drawn to its lyrics. The song was seen as a step down from the album's previous single, "Rewind". Commercially, "Blue Orangeade" faired well on the charts, peaking at number 5 on the Gaon chart and number 8 on the South Korean Hot 100. The song was promoted on a variety of music shows, ultimately winning 5 of them. The single sold over 300,000 copies, and has achieved nearly 150 million streams on spotify.

Despite its commercial success, "Blue Orangeade" failed to leave a lasting impact, quickly falling from the charts and not recognized in the majority of year-end lists and award ceremonies. The popular consensus remains that "Rewind" overshadowed "Blue Orangeade", and the general public had lost interest in *Home* by the time the song was released. The single has been performed on every live concert by Edge. The single was succeeded by "Miss Right" in late 2023.
Chequered Flag

***Chequered Flag*** is a British-Japanese motorsports anime created, written and directed by Jay Stevenson, and produced by J-Animations. The series aired from June 2017 until November 2023, airing twice a week (Tuesdays and Fridays) on numerous channels in a variety of regions, including TV Tokyo in Japan, BBC Two (2017-2018) and BBC One (2019-2023) in the United Kingdom, and NBC in the USA. The series spans 7 seasons and 260 episodes. The series has been collected into 26 volumes of 10 episodes each, available on both DVD and Blu-Ray. It also streams digitally on Amazon Prime Video.

The series follows Kain Linkton, a 19-year old hot-headed American racing driver from a wealthy background who participates in the fictional GlobeRank OpenWheel Championship. Kain strives to become better and better and work his way up the ranks from national to international racing divisions, and later on, Formula series. Kain's childhood friend and rival, Oliver Wivern, is from a working-class background where he works numerous jobs to support his racing career, yet is often outperforming Kain, which fuels a one-sided rivalry. The show's narrative follows Kain throughout his motorsport career.

The series features Max Mittelman as Kain, and Robbie Daymond as Oliver. Planning for the series began in 2015. The racing scenes of the show heavily rely on CGI, and as such the series had the highest budget of any J-Animations series at that point.

*Chequered Flag* released to mixed reviews from critics in its maiden season, who criticised the show for being too unrealistic and dramatized. The show's structure was then altered, creating more focus for the actual races, and a more diverse championship. From the second season onwards, *Chequered Flag* received critical acclaim, with many praising the show's writing, characters, animation, soundtrack and voice performances, as well as the plot. Reviewers noted the unique choice of Kain as a protagonist, stating he would be "the villain" in any other anime, and that having his rival be the underdog provides an interesting perspective. Ratings for the show increased as it progressed, with the series achieving an average of over 60 million viewers per episode, as a result of simultaneous dubbing and airing in many regions. It has won numerous awards, and is held as a highly influential sports anime that helped popularise motorsport even further into the mainstream.
Superhuman

Single by Edge

**"Superhuman"** is the debut single by Teyvat boy group Edge serving as the lead single from their self-titled first studio album. The song was released on September 28, 2021 by J-Music. Written and produced by Take 1, "Superhuman" features themes of optimism and hope in the face of adversity. The song features hard-hitting, sledgehammer synths with a glitchy electro-dance base.

The single released to critical acclaim from critics, who claimed it was a "refreshing" sound released in a time where so-called "Noise Music" was finding great commercial success, especially from boy groups. The group performed their debut stage on Inkigayo, the most prestigious music show in South Korea, and won with their debut single, unprecedented for a rookie group. The performance garnered popularity online, becoming the most viewed music show performance of 2021 on YouTube. The single went on to peak at number 1 on the Gaon Chart and the South Korean Hot 100, staying atop both charts for 4 non-consecutive weeks. It went on to sell over 500,000 copies, and remains the most-streamed song by the group on Spotify at over 500 million.

"Superhuman" had a major cultural impact. It cemented Edge's place in the South Korean music industry, cited as the sole reason for why their debut album achieved such great success. At the 2021 MAMAs, "Superhuman" won Song of the Year at the award ceremony, a result unexpected by the majority of fans based on the fact that the single was the debut from a small label. "Superhuman" remains Edge's most successful release commercially. It was succeeded by the album's second single, "Favourite", in late November of the same year.

The song has been performed at every live show the group has had, including the "Superhuman '22" tour which was named after the song. It was included in Pitchfork's "15 Greatest K-Pop Hits of the 2020s" as well as ranking highly in multiple other year-end and decade-end lists. It is seen as the most successful debut for a fourth generation boy group in K-Pop.
Rewind

Single by Edge

**"Rewind"** is a 2023 single by Teyvat boy group Edge, released on January 1, 2023 by J-Music as the second single from the album *Home*. The song was written by the group's leader, Albedo, and was produced by K.K. Slider. "Rewind" is a "lively" mid-tempo R&B pop song with a light beat, featuring 8-bit video game motifs in both its instrumental and vocals. Lyrically, the song expresses the desire to return to the past in order to fix mistakes and regrets, and features themes of nostalgia, loss and denial.

Upon release, "Rewind" was met with critical acclaim from music critics, who praised the songs lyricism, vocal performances, production, incorporation of video game motifs and themes. Many named it Edge's best single to date, and felt it did a far better job than "Rocket" at expressing Edge's new sound and concept. "Rewind" released alongside the album *Home*, debuting at number 7 on the Gaon singles chart and eventually peaking at number 2. On the South Korean Hot 100, "Rewind" peaked at number 4, staying there for 5 consecutive weeks. To promote the song, Edge performed it on a variety of music shows, ultimately winning 7 awards.

The single achieved significant airplay on South Korean radio stations, becoming the most played song on the radio for Winter 2023. The airplay was seen as aiding "Rewind" on the charts. Subsequently, "Rewind" remained Edge's most commercially successful single for nearly 3 years until the release of "Boom" in 2025, selling over 450,000 copies. It is the highest-streamed non-*Edge* single by the group on Spotify, and the fourth highest streamed single overall.

"Rewind" was nominated for a multitude of awards, most notably Song of the Year at the 2023 MAMAs, and was seen as a highlight from the album. It has been included in multiple year-end and decade-end lists by music publications. Culturally, "Rewind" had a significant impact for the group overseas, charting inside the top 40 in countries such as Japan, the Netherlands, Iceland and Denmark. It was voted South Korea's 2nd favourite *Edge* single behind "Lucifer". "Rewind" has been performed in every live show by Edge since being released. Albedo, Kazuha and Gorou have all stated that the single is their favourite song from the group. The single was succeeded by "Blue Orangeade" in March 2023.
Home

Album by Edge

***Home*** is the second studio album by Teyvat boy group Edge. The record was released on January 1, 2023 by J-Music, and was co-produced by K.K. Slider and Jay Stevenson. *Home* serves as a major departure from Edge's debut sound and concept: instead of taking a powerful anti-regime stance, the group's focus shifts towards themes of childhood, family, loss and nostalgia. Musically, the album is viewed as a pop, R&B and alternative hip hop record. The album was recorded over 2 months, from June to August of 2022.

After the success of their first album, Edge saw significant attention aimed towards them for their upcoming release, which became highly anticipated. The album's lead single, "Rocket" was released on November 12, 2022. The single was met with a mixed response, as many didn't appreciate the group's change in sound. The single struggled to perform on par with its predecessors, peaking at Number 9 on the Gaon chart and number 20 on the South Korean Hot 100, shifting just over 150,000 copies. The album released on new years day of 2023, along with its second single "Rewind" which found much more critical and commercial success. *Home* received positive reviews from critics, who praised its production, lyricism, themes, performances and cohesiveness. The group's transformation divided many critics, some who praised it and believed the album to be an improvement from the group's debut, and others who criticised it and felt Edge worked better with a darker and edgier concept. The album debuted and peaked at Number 1 on the Gaon albums chart. The third single, "Blue Orangeade", released on March 7, 2023 to positive reviews and chart success.

Commercially, *Home* has sold over 700,000 copies: a commercial success, but less than half of its predecessor. The album, whilst received well, failed to make a long-lasting impact and charted for a little over 5 months. *Home* was nominated for Album of the Year at the 2023 MAMAs, and "Rewind" was nominated for Song of the Year, although neither entry won. The release remains a divisive one, seen to have ultimately damaged Edge's career as they departed from everything that had made them so popular in their first year. It remains a favourite amongst fans and the group however, with vocalist Bennett stating that it it his favourite album from the group's career.

The album was succeeded by the "Coming Home '23" tour across Asia and Europe. Many of the album's songs have become live staples for the group, with "Butterfly" being performed at every live concert of Edge's. The ballad influences of the album continued throughout much of Edge's career, including their third album, Warmth, released at the end of the year.

## Opis Przejścia

Drugi portal w Warp Roomie prowadzi Crasha do miejsca pokrytego śniegiem i lodem. Z racji zimowych klimatów jamraj spotyka pingwiny i foki, przepaści, a w dalszej części poziomu mechaniczne pułapki, które mogą go zmiażdżyć. Crash przechodząc ten poziom odkrywa, że chcąc zdobyć tu wszystko musi dostać się do ukrytej sekcji, bo tylko w ten sposób można zdobyć rubin. Dostęp do ukrytej sekcji odblokowuje się dopiero w przyszłości, kiedy Crash znajdzie ukryty teleport na innym poziomie, a na razie zadowala się zdobyciem kryształu i diamentu za zniszczenie wszystkich skrzyń.

## Crash On The Run

W tej grze Śnieżne Przejście to siódmy poziom. By go odblokować potrzeba 75 klejnotów mocy. Wprowadza on pingwiny oraz mechanizmy znane z futurystycznych poziomów w drugim Crashu. Na tym poziomie można też spotkać skrzynie zamrożone, które można odtaić poprzez rzucenie w nie jagodami Bumpa.
Edge (Album)

***Edge*** is the self-titled debut studio album by Tevyat boy group Edge. It was released on November 25, 2021 by J-Music, and was produced by K.K. Slider. Serving as the musical adaptation of Edge's concept, *Edge* tells the story of a group of young adults stuck in a dystopic, oppressive society, and follows their journey as they become more confident and eventually rebel. Whilst this narrative is not literal, it is told through themes of freedom, equality, identity, justice, discrimination, societal stereotypes and human autonomy. The album was recorded over 2 months, from June to August of 2021.

The release of the album was preceded by its lead single, "Superhuman" in September. "Superhuman" was an extreme critical and commercial success, obtaining the number 1 spot on both of South Korea's main music charts, and winning 16 award shows during its promotional period. The significant impact of their debut led Edge to receive a lot of press attention for the album. Released alongside the album's second single, "Favourite", which also became a number 1 hit, *Edge* received critical acclaim for its upbeat, emotional and symbolic songs, its conceptual cohesiveness and the vocal performances of the band members. It peaked atop the albums chart in South Korea, and went on to sell over one-and-a-half million copies, unprecedented for a debut album from a new and small music label and setting the record for the best-selling debut in South Korea. The album's third and final single, "Lucifer", reached number 1 in early 2022.

*Edge* cemented Edge as a performance-heavy boy group, with their elaborate choreography and stages achieving unanimous praise. The album remains the group's most successful release. It became the first K-Pop album in South Korea to achieve 3 number 1 singles. The album has left a profound legacy: "Lucifer" has become iconic for being a signature song most trainee idols have to learn and perform, and the album itself has been cited as one of the best albums of the 2020s, as well as one of the best debuts. It went on to be nominated for Album of the Year at the MAMAs, but ultimately lost out to *Sticker* by NCT 127. "Superhuman" went on to win Song of the Year at the awards ceremony.

The sudden burst in popularity for the group has been cited as ultimately hurting the group in the long run. The documentary, titled "Yeah, Superhuman", details the struggles the band members faced after being thrown into the mainstream media and receiving overwhelming press coverage. *Edge* would be the only million-seller for the group until 2025 with their fifth studio album, *Still*. The songs found on the album have become staples for the group's live performances, including the "Superhuman '22" tour across South Korea and Japan, which garnered critical acclaim. The album was succeeded by *Home* in 2023.
Agents

***Agents*** is a 2019 British-Japanese comedy spy thriller anime series created by Jay Stevenson and Tite Kubo, written and directed by the former and produced by J-Animations. The series aired from June to December 2019, airing on Mondays, and ran for 26 episodes, being the shortest anime ever produced by J-Animations. It was broadcast on numerous channels in a variety of regions, including TV Tokyo in Japan, BBC Two in the United Kingdom, and Adult Swim in the USA. The series has been compiled into one multi-disk DVD and Blu-ray boxset, and is available to stream globally on Disney+ as of 2022.

Created as a crossover between the anime series *Elixir* and the manga series *Bleach*, *Agents* takes place in *Bleach'*s universe, namely Karakura Town, whereby Jay, one of the protagonists of *Elixir*, is transported and selected to join a spy agency containing many of *Bleach'*s protagonists, with his partner being Ichigo Kurosaki, all whilst leading a double life as a normal school student. Both the English and Japanese dubs of the anime involve the original voice actors for the *Bleach* anime, and Jay reprises his role as Jay for the series. It was the first form of animated *Bleach* media since the conclusion of the anime series in 2012.

Initially dismissed by critics as a "novelty" production before airing, the series received critical acclaim upon release. Many praised the plot, writing, characters, soundtrack, and animation, noting that the series feels like " a perfect blend" between the two series. Reviewers complimented the dynamics between Jay and Ichigo, and also appreciated the introduction of new characters, as well as the re-designs of pre-existing ones, including the return of the Gotei 13 in antagonist roles. The show's self-referential and tongue-in-cheek humour was noted as a highlight. The series finale, which aired on Christmas Day, received overwhelmingly positive reviews for its satisfactory conclusion and heartfelt message. Pacing was also praised, and many felt the series did not seem to end too prematurely, nor be dragged out.

Commercially, *Agents* was successful, drawing in fans of both *Elixir* and *Bleach*. On average, it reached over 50 million viewers per episode. The series won multiple awards in 2019, including the BAFTA award for Best International Programme. Despite the series' unexpected popularity and success, it has been confirmed it will not receive a sequel. The conclusion of the series coincided with the announcement that J-Animations would adapt the entirety of the *Bleach* manga, including the not-yet-animated final arc.
J-Games

**J-Games** is a British video game developer and publisher, and well as developing video game consoles. It's headquarters are in London, England.

Founded in 2005 by Jay Stevenson, with assistance from Nintendo and Sony Interactive Entertainment, the company released their first video game console, the J-1, in 2006, along with a series of original games. Third party support however was lacking, as the console was powerful but difficult to programme for, and due to its low market share, many developers did not see the benefit of porting games to it. In 2008, J-Games released their second console, the J-Flash, which achieved meteoric success that surprised both investors and developers. With more powerful hardware that was easy to programme for, the console launched with a selection of acclaimed first-party exclusives, as well as heavy third party support. The console was also backwards compatible, setting the standard for all following consoles. The success would soon die down however, with the release of the company's 3rd console in 2010, named the J-Exo, which did not achieve the sales of its predecessor. A slow but steady decline in commercial success resulted in the company borrowing from J-Animations as part of the J-Entertainment shared funding system. The companies 4th console, the J-15, released in 2015, and a multi-functional Virtual Reality console, the J-Multi, released the following year.

After the lowest sales for the company since 2007 were recorded in 2017, J-Games looked to be on the verge of closing down. In 2018, J-Games launched their 6th console, the J-Revolution. With a highly publicised lineup of critically acclaimed games that had been in production for over a decade, along with third party support unseen since the J-Flash and all exclusives from past consoles being available to purchase digitally, the console was a big success, becoming the company's best-selling console within two years. This console would last until the present day, albeit with numerous improved models being released. It is currently the best-selling console of all time. From 2018, the company experienced what has been dubbed as *The J-Games Golden Era*, which saw consecutive releases of critically and commercially successful video games.

J-Games have developed and published numerous highly regarded video game franchises, such as *Nico Adventures*, *The Power Game*, *Vengeance*, *Unleashed*, *City Star* and *At World's End*, as well as a variety of stand-alone titles such as *Yes/No*, *Platinum*, *Airborne* and *The Distance Between Us.* As of 2032, they are the best-selling video game developer of all time.

Jigoku

***Jigoku*** is a British-Japanese psychological thriller anime created and written by Jay Stevenson, directed by Noriyuki Abe and produced by J-Animations. The series aired from January 2008 to December 2008, on Tuesdays, in four parts on various television channels worldwide, including TV Tokyo in Japan, BBC Two in the United Kingdom and Adult Swim in the USA. It was released in 4 DVD and later 4 Blu-ray sets, and ran for 40 episodes.

The series follows businessman Qaim Colder (voiced by Matthew Mercer) who is drugged by an unknown perpetrator and influenced into killing his fellow 7 members of the Board of 8, the highest authority in a weapons company known as Jigoku. Qaim fights the drug before he shoots himself and, with the help of his younger brother Adam (voiced by Yuri Lowenthal), decides to try to cover up his crimes and run the entire business on his own whilst trying to find evidence to clear his name.

*Jigoku* received positive reviews upon airing. Critics praised the performances of the voice cast, characters, art direction, animation and soundtrack, however some criticism was directed towards the 'far-fetched' plot of the show and the pacing across episodes. It won a BAFTA in 2008 for Best International Programme, and Matthew Mercer won a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Voice-Over Performance. Commercially, Jigoku averaged more than 40 million viewers per episode as a result to its simultaneous dubbing and airing in a variety of regions. It is the second-shortest series by J-Animations, behind 2019's *Agents*.
Under My Skin (Season 1)

The first season of the British-Japanese comedy-horror idol anime series *Under My Skin* aired from July to December 2033, for a total of 26 episodes in a variety of regions, including TV Tokyo in Japan, Mnet in South Korea, and Disney+ internationally. The season was written and directed by Jay Stevenson, the series' creator, and produced by J-Animations. The season's original soundtrack was composed by a variety of Korean pop producers, including Kenzie, Ryan Jhun, 3RACHA and Dem Jointz, as well as Japanese composer Susumu Hirasawa. The season's opening theme is "Hate Rodrigo" by YENA, and its ending theme is "Mirotic" by TVXQ.

The season follows Kaori Miyazuki, a Japanese high-schooler who is an obsessive fan of the Korean pop girl group 42ND STREET, who subsequently disband after a tumultuous, scandal-ridden 8-year career, causing Kaori's mental state to spiral. She ends up travelling back in time via a time machine her father inexplicably built and accidentally kills her favourite member, also named Kaori, who she then skins and assumes the identity of in order to fix 42ND STREET's issues from the inside. The 26 episodes document 42ND STREET's debut, which was initially marred by bullying controversies, and first comeback, which was the group's commercial peak but remained overshadowed by rival groups aespa and ITZY.
