This is the second Genshin fan movie produced at the request of HoYoFair, Genshin Impact’s official fan creation channel. In the first installment, I focused on the characters’ in-game performance, so this time I built the piece around emphasizing each character’s background and traits, and then showing, through their shared commonalities, pairings that never interact in the game. I hope it became a work that makes fans think, “I wish interactions like this really existed.”

MV for Tomonari Sora’s “Yellow Signal,” the new opening theme for the rebroadcast version of the TV anime *Assassination Classroom*. This work is composed as a retro video game-inspired world, with motifs drawn from the story and characters of *Assassination Classroom*. By using pixel-art textures and low-poly 3D models, and then applying a VHS-style composite in the final finishing stage, the visuals were given a nostalgic texture. In addition, the cut-ins and movie-like scenes that were “typical” of slightly older games were researched and recreated. In the flight scenes, to emphasize the sense of speed at Mach-like movement, we also incorporated the delay effect of chunk loading that occurs during high-speed travel in games such as *Minecraft*. In addition to the youthful feeling of the anime itself, taking into account the context of a rebroadcast of a series from about 10 years ago, we aimed for a feeling like a “reunion that brings back memories of those days” by weaving in retro elements.

A music video focusing on “Soap,” one of the original characters from Yokomizo Yuri’s “Nandemo Ikimono” series. Filmed in a real public bath, it combines stop-motion and animation. Centered on the feeling that “bathing is fun!”, the video creates a playful space surrounded by steam and the sound of water. By giving each soap slightly different movements, it produces the charm and rhythm unique to a large crowd, while also weaving in the fragility of how soap gets smaller with use and eventually disappears, resulting in a video that leaves a gentle afterglow.

Second Trial music video for the viewer participation music project “MILGRAM.” A work that follows the characters’ emotions while incorporating jazz-like analog record textures and graphics, and translating anime expression into the piece.
