“Chimera Project,” an original concept, story, and character design by voice actress Aoi Yuki. It tells the story of Chimerios, or chimeras, born from the words spoken by humans through virtual communication such as social media. The seven Chimerios are characters personifying the days of the week: for example, Monday is gloomy because it comes right after the weekend, while Friday has a carefree, party-loving personality because it comes just before the break. While expressing the Chimerios’ terrifying yet adorable world, the music video depicts their desire to eat the words spoken by humans.

For Naniwa Danshi’s “Join us !” music video, we handled some of the VFX. We designed the characters and visuals, incorporating elements that reflect their distinctive charm through details gathered from fan feedback.

“NEMURUMA EHON” is an original picture book read-aloud program that began streaming on U-NEXT in October 2024. Featuring a carefully selected lineup of Japanese picture books that we want people to read now, chosen together with Nemu Yumemi, the program invites a variety of readers to bring them to life. To convey the appeal of picture books themselves, the actual books are filmed on camera. By making full use of editing techniques such as preserving the sound of pages being turned and action cuts, we aim to transform a single reading experience into video. At the end of the program, “Nemuruma Anime” by Yosuke Omomo continues to play, gently encouraging a calm state of mind and sleep. By exploring what is uniquely possible with streaming video—such as not showing “the next recommended video” and not fixing a set runtime—we aim to create a program that can be a small help in childcare, one that parents can feel comfortable handing to their children on a tablet or smartphone.
