KOO-KI produced the trailer for “FALSE GODS,” the second release of the card game “BATTLE SPIRITS SAGA,” which is distributed in English-speaking regions.

A lavish track by Hakushi Hasegawa × TOKYO SKA PARADISE ORCHESTRA. Hakushi Hasegawa says, “I want to see you again like a ghost,” and then appears as an anime character, or disappears into an afterimage. I hope the people who see it can meet there. Though the form doesn’t resemble him, the movements and gestures of the red afterimage, the “feeling” itself, were Hakushi Hasegawa—that is what I think the meeting of anima and anima is. As a tribute to Sophie’s song “It’s Okay To Cry,” who passed away just before this song was made, there is also a moment where Hakushi Hasegawa’s animated character briefly strikes the pose from the thumbnail of that music video. Whether because of COVID or being unable to meet, we are waiting for the other side of the wormhole, like Zoom, to connect again; or, if you watch this MV, I hope our eyes can meet.
