this Azuki Panel open Animation ExpoThe next day was the mix that I brought. on the one hand, Code geass Creator GorōTaniguchi There, how can I deny that about crime, punishment, politics, robots, waifus and Pizza Cottage Become my staple food in my early college days? On the other hand, he represents a company known for its NFT series. This confuses me because it is hard to imagine that the man who opposes mechanized imperialism will go on the path of tech brothers.
Given the superstar of Tanaguchi, it’s easy to assume that most of the people in the room are there. You may have droppedAzuki“or “Community-driven animation” “Programming Guide” and use ” Code geass Dude Azuki CEO Alex Xu takes the golf course on the stage. This left me with such an impression that he was a stranger and his existence was only discovered. director The field of the field Despite playing videos of his absence and videos of Mea Culpa, he was unable to participate in the group.
Taniguchi and Xu continued to discuss the importance of collaboration in the busy anime world. This is Taniguchi Have discussed it beforeso his answer is reiterated. “We stressed the need for a new partner, and that’s everyone here,” Taniguchi said. “We realized there was a lot of strengths to bring from many others, and we didn’t have to think about that from the fans, so we wouldn’t make a clear difference there. Just consider that everyone adds a process to create an entire story, more is thought of.”
Strangely, despite the company making NFTs, it was hardly discussed here in the group. It’s not that they avoided it completely, but that there are only a few times, given that the ultimate goal is Azuki is working with fanatics and the community. XU introduced Azuki As something that was originally an NFT collective, but is in the process of expanding to other avenues and talking about how creating an NFT helped his company browse the barriers to licensing and copyright that arise in the creative process. Taniguchi even Nintendo Prosecution Doujinshi The artists are because they used Pikachu at work, Xu followed up and said how the NFTS dealt with this unfair copyright hatred.
“One of the reasons why we decided to make this original Azuki The project of NFT collection is because we can incorporate copyright rights and commercial rights into the NFT itself,” Xu said. “If you own the NFT and its roles, you have all the rights to it. So for many artists in our community they can do Fan Art Among these characters, we like it. The owner of the role will commission the works of these artists. I think this is a way for these NFT owners to have a part of it Azuki. This is a victory for both the owner and the artist. ”
Indeed, Xu’s comments are filled with faint praise and conspiracy when working with fanatics and seeing it grow. As a self-appointed “fan creative team”, they advise aspiring animators who want to break into the industry, invite people to hang out in discord and discuss the hopes and challenges facing younger generations. One of their key points about the younger generation of animators and the transition from hand-painted to numbers proves this.
“Young animators have pros and cons,” Taniguchi said. “One of the benefits is that they have seen so much of their past work that they know how to copy these methods. One disadvantage – not necessarily their fault, which could be the responsibility of the entire anime field – when they were young, when they tend to make cars or robots on computer graphics, they didn’t draw with hand. If you want to try that hand-painted style trigger with imaishi-san. But the industry recognizes this problem, so they are trying to solve it right away. ”
Group members discuss their original anime series Enter the garden. With the third episode of the anime series being produced, it’s a great opportunity to talk about how the theme of this episode is challenging. Taniguchi said: “The first episode emphasizes Azukithe second display AzukiPopular characters. The third episode tries to show how far we can go to expand our style. We think the challenge has been good and we have been able to continue the process. ”
All of these talks Enter the gardenThe work of anime fanaticism and optimistic expressions seem to be an attempt to ignore the elephants in the room. Xu even compared his “community-driven project” to something similar Fifty Shades of Graybecause that’s fanaticism of twilightbecame a huge Franchise. There is definitely something to say about quoting fanaticism That’s anything original. Not the originality of anime or anything else is easy to achieve. I’ve read it Hiroki Azuma‘ Otaku: Japanese database animals And watched enough anime to understand that anime is a medium composed of stories and metaphors and has been reorganized and remodeled for consumption. I also like the anime fanatical death. I love seeing fans come together to collaborate and create something bigger than myself. However, seeing NFT-driven projects is a means for fans to reach the newly discovered zenith, which is strange and somewhat unobvious.
I highly doubt Taniguchi’s legacy will be damaged by his new business, but participating in the NFTS may leave a taint mark, especially when the problematic NFTs collective only have the biggest idea of what they want to do from here. In any case, it’s still hard to see that man’s giant work on mechanized imperialism’s railings will follow the tech brothers here.
