Sorcerer's Kingdom wasn't that great of game, but it sure had an awesome battle theme. I stayed up entirely too late working on this arrangement, but it was well worth the time and effort.

K I T A ' S F A M I L Y - P A R T O N E

The Father - Sebastian

Age: Old // Height: 193 cm // MBTI: ENTP

Face Claim: Kaoru Rindo (Cafe Enchante) & Ardyn Izunia (Final Fantasy XV)

Voice Claim: Wagner Moura (EN) / Koichi Yamadera (JP)

As a child, he had been told that his family was cursed. That they are "los portadoras de la muerte". The Ones Who Bring Death. For a long time, Sebastian believed that this was the case. He lost his entire family to either sickness or freak accidents and his ancestors were supposedly responsible for a calamity that occurred in a neighboring country centuries ago, causing them to flee to Paldea and earn their accursed title. As a way to challenge his fate, he decided to become an explorer when he grew up. It was during his travels that he met the woman who would later become his wife and the mother of his children. For a time, it seemed as though the curse was merely a myth.. until he lost everything. The following decades have then turned this once charismatic, vivacious man into a cold, ruthless one. Currently, he is the CEO of Geneza Corp., a major company which focuses on natural science research and expeditions, as well as being the main benefactor of the team studying Area Zero. In the recent years, an extremist group calling themselves Team Abyss has been making claims that Geneza Corp. is merely a front for nefarious purposes that will bring about the end of the world. Whatever his motives are, one thing is for certain: he will use any means necessary to reunite with his family..

The Mother - Eriza

Age: Really, really, really old // Height: 180 cm // MBTI: INFJ

Face Claim: Isabella (The Promised Neverland)

Voice Claim: Lisa Hannigan (EN) / Sarah Alainn (JP)

Beware the Platinum Clan, especially their leader, High Priestess Eriza. These words have been passed around the inhabitants of Hisui in hushed voices for decades. Viewed by outsiders as an omen, but viewed as a mother by her followers. Eriza initially appears as a kindly woman, taking in exiles and outcasts from the Diamond or Pearl Clan and Jubilife Village. But it doesn't take a detective to suspect that there is something off about her. Perhaps it is her consistently calm demeanor and unbreaking gaze.. how she is accompanied by menacing-looking Pokemon (most of which aren't native to Hisui).. how she was able to stop a previously violent feud between the Diamond and Pearl clans with just one word and somehow drove their leaders into insanity.. how even the fearless Kamado clams up at her presence… or how nobody seems to know where the Platinum Clan's settlement is or what deity they worship. Records mention an island shrouded in fog that appears at random locations around Hisuian waters at different times with no pattern. But following the disappearance of the space-time rift, the island along with the clan and its leader also seemingly vanished without a trace..

The Sister - Moira

Age: 31 (during Gen 6) // Height: 171 cm // MBTI: ESTJ

Face Claim: Sumika Warakubami (Kakegurui)

Voice Claim: Mallory Low (EN) / Yu Shimamura (JP)

Tremble at the crack of her whip! Moira (codename: Solana) is the most feared Team Flare Admin with a sharp tongue and temper that is fitting with the organization's motif. She will not hesitate enacting some harsh discipline towards the buffoon grunts who constantly test her sliver of patience. Seriously, how do they keep losing against a group of kids?? But she is not "all bark, no bite." Her bewitching dance moves are said to empower her Pokemon, doubling the effect of their own dance moves. She may even join in on the battle herself, wielding her Doublade just so that she can have the hands-on experience of beating down her opponent. Unbeknownst to her boss, she has a personal reason to find the legendary bird of destruction.. as well as a massive celebrity crush on Diantha.

The Brother - Carmen

Age: 22 (during Gen 6) // Height: 175 cm // MBTI: ENFJ

Face Claim: Kayden (Eleceed)

Voice Claim: Kevin T. Collins (EN) / Jun Fukuyama (JP)

Do not underestimate his pretty face for he and his Pokemon can quite literally blind you and have your head spinning. With dazzling good looks and a singing voice that seems hypnotic, Carmen quickly rose to fame in the Unovan fashion and entertainment industry, going by the stage name "Carmen Valentine." Despite his popularity, his personal life is mostly kept private, further adding to the intrigue. His friendly professional rivalry with Elesa is no secret however and should anyone ask if the rumors of them actually being a couple are true, he will simply laugh it off. There have also been recent paparazzi reports spotting him making frequent trips to the Castelia City gym..

  Continuing from the mystery-laden ending of Season 1, the battle between Section 9 and the “posthumans” threatening humanity finally begins. The chaotic story unfolds at a breathless pace, posing the ultimate question: are the “posthumans” the potential of human evolution as shown throughout “Ghost in the Shell”?

Synopsis In 1972, Misaki, a popular student of Yomiyama North Middle School’s class 3-3, suddenly died partway through the school year. Since then, the town of Yomiyama has been shrouded by a fearful atmosphere, from the dark secrets hidden deep within.

In 1998, Kouichi Sakakibara, a 15-year-old student transfers into class 3-3 of Yomiyama North Middle School and soon after discovers that a strange, gloomy mood seems to hang over all the students.

He also finds himself drawn to Mei Misaki, a mysterious and eyepatch-wearing student whom classmates and teacher seemingly ignore her. Paying no heed to warnings from everyone including Mei herself, Kouichi begins to get closer not only to her, but also to the truth behind the gruesome phenomenon plaguing class 3-3 of Yomiyama North Middle School.

This anime follows Kouichi, Mei and their classmates as they are pulled into the enigma surrounding a series of inevitable and tragic events, but unraveling the horror of Yomiyama may just cost them the ultimate price.

FEATURE: Meet the Stars of Princess Connect Re:Dive

  Going into Princess Connect! Re:Dive, I knew little about it other than the fact that it was an adaptation of a mobile game. That didn’t bode well; my experiences with video game adaptations have been less than positive.

  Imagine my surprise, then, when it turned out to be hilarious. When a pair of ridiculous-looking wolves started dragging off our protagonist, I completely lost it. I found myself constantly laughing at the KONOSUBA-esque humor — it was only much later that I’d learn that Princess Connect and KONOSUBA shared the same director. It was also well-animated and delivered some impressive-looking action scenes and spell effects.

  At the end of the day, however, this is a comedy anime through and through. And comedy anime live and die on the basis of their voice acting. Unsurprising, then, that Princess Connect features an all-star voice cast, with the actors from the mobile game reprising their roles in the anime. Let’s take a look at some of the talented voice actors that bring the characters of Princess Connect, both the game and the anime, to life.

Pecorine (M·A·O)

    Mao Ichimichi, also known as M·A·O, is probably better known for her non-anime roles — she started off her career in tokusatsu (live-action often with heavy special effects), most notably playing Luka Millfy in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. She later ventured into anime voice acting. She voices the cheerful and energetic (and perpetually hungry) Pecorine in Princess Connect. She has also voiced Iris in Fire Force, Luluco in Space Patrol Luluco, Hondomachi in ID:Invaded, Vorona in Durarara, Bela in Bem, and Remi Ayasaki in the currently-airing Horimiya.

Kokkoro (Miku Ito)

    This isn’t the first time Miku Ito has played a character named Kokoro, having played the character of the same name in the BanG Dream! franchise. Her most well-known role is probably that of her own namesake: Miku from The Quintessential Quintuplets. Her other roles include Shimamura from Adachi and Shimamura, Ann Akagi from Action Heroine Cheer Fruits (in which she starred alongside fellow Princess Connect actor M·A·O), and Nana Mifune in Gleipnir.

Karyl (Rika Tachibana)

    Rika Tachibana has an extensive voice acting career in video games, featuring in such titles as Granblue Fantasy, Magia Record, The Idolmaster Cinderella Girls, Street Fighter V, and of course Princess Connect, where she plays Karyl. Tachibana’s anime voice acting roles include Sae Kobayakawa from The Idolmaster Cinderella Girls, Reiko from Shomin Sample, Naruse from The Island of Giant Insects — in which she starred alongside ... you guessed it ... M·A·O — and African Wild Dog from Kemono Friends.

Yuuki (Atsushi Abe)

    Our main protagonist Yuuki may not say much, but Atsushi Abe manages to make whatever little he says absolutely hilarious. Abe garnered widespread recognition for his role as Touma Kamijou in A Certain Magical Index and its spinoffs. His other roles include Moritaka Mashiro in Bakuman, Koichi Sakakibara in Another, Takashi in B Gata H Kei, Akiyuki in Xam’d: Lost Memories, Soya in Planet With, Inojin Yamanaka in Boruto, and Sougo in IDOLISH7.

Kaiser Insight (Shouta Aoi)

    It is not uncommon for female voice actors to voice male roles, especially younger characters. But male voice actors voicing female roles? Extremely rare. Shouta Aoi’s unique, “angelic” voice allows him to do so, with him voicing main Princess Connect villain Kaiser Insight. Aoi is better known as a singer, but he made his voice acting breakthrough as Ai Mikaze in Uta no Prince-sama. Since then, he has voiced Hideaki Tojo in Ace of the Diamond, Licht in The Royal Tutor, and will voice Subaru in the upcoming adaptation of Tokyo Babylon.

  Maho (Maaya Uchida)

  Maho is considered by the other Princess Connect characters to be slightly delusional, so of course she is voiced by Maaya Uchida, best-known as the voice of out-of-touch characters like Rikka from Love, Chunibyo, and Other Delusions and Ranko Kanzaki from The Idolmaster Cinderella Girls. Her non-delusional roles include Yoshioka from Blue Spring Ride, Norman from The Promised Neverland, Yuki Yoshino from Food Wars, and Catarina Claes from My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom.

  Miyako (Sora Amamiya)

    I mentioned earlier how Princess Connect feels incredibly KONOSUBA-esque, both in its setting and its sense of humor. Makes perfect sense, then, for it to feature the voice of Sora Amamiya, known for voicing “useless” goddess Aqua from KONOSUBA. Amamiya’s other notable roles include Elizabeth from The Seven Deadly Sins, Touka from Tokyo Ghoul, Akame from Akame ga Kill, Kaori from One Week Friends, Isla from Plastic Memories, and Asseylum from Aldnoah.Zero.

  Hiyori (Nao Toyama)

  Nao Toyama played her first major role as Kanon Nakagawa in The World God Only Knows, which kickstarted her music career. Many people also know her as Yui Yuigahama in My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU, or Chitoge Kirisaki in Nisekoi. However, the role for which I personally recognise her the most is as the quiet Rin Shima in Laid-Back Camp. Other major roles include Karen in KINMOZA!, Ruka in Rent-a-Girlfriend, and Nozomi in Sound! Euphonium.

  Suzume (Aoi Yuki)

    Aoi Yuki has been earning plaudits this season for her energetic portrayal of the titular spider in So I’m a Spider, So What? Yuki has had many significant voice roles over the years, including Madoka from Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Tanya in Saga of Tanya the Evil, Froppy in My Hero Academia, Tamaki in Fire Force, Diane in The Seven Deadly Sins, and Mami in Rent-a-Girlfriend.

Rei (Saori Hayami)

  Saori Hayami is one of the most in-demand voice actors of recent times. She is known for portraying Yukino Yukinoshita in My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU, and received considerable praise for her performance as Shoko Nishimiya in A Silent Voice. Her other notable roles include Shirayuki in Snow White with the Red Hair, Shinobu in Demon Slayer, Tsuruko in AnoHana: The Flower We Saw That Day, Yumeko Jabami in Kakegurui, and Himawari in Boruto.

  Jun (Ayako Kawasumi)

    Jun is a classic knight in metal armor. And who better to voice a knight than Ayako Kawasumi, best known as the voice of Saber in various installments of the Fate franchise. Kawasumi is also a talented pianist, which explains her role as Nodame in Nodame Cantabile. Some of her other major roles include Fuu in Samurai Champloo, Erina Pendleton in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, Alice in Pandora Hearts, Melfina in Outlaw Star, Natsuki in Initial D, and Lafiel in Crest of the Stars.

Io (Shizuka Ito)

  Shizuka Ito won a “Best Actress in Supporting Roles” award at the 10th Seiyuu Awards for her performances as Meiko Shiraki in Prison School and Sailor Venus in Sailor Moon Crystal. Some of her other major performances are as Himawari in xxxHolic, Ran in Texhnolyze, Kaori Kanzaki in A Certain Magical Index, Boota and Darry in Gurren Lagann, Yayoi in Psycho-Pass, Rei Hasekura in Maria Watches Over Us, and Hinagiku in Hayate the Combat Butler.

Yui (Risa Taneda)

  Risa Taneda is undoubtedly best known for her roles as Erina Nakiri in Food Wars and Kaori Miyazono in Your Lie in April. But to me, she will always be Saki from Shin Sekai Yori, where she delivered an excellent performance spanning many ages, and performed the first ending song too. Taneda’s other significant roles include Rize in Is the Order a Rabbit?, Mirai in Beyond the Boundary, Yukina in Strike the Blood, Ai Mizuno in Zombie Land Saga, Xenovia in High School DxD, and Yukari in YUYUSHIKI.

Labyrista (Miyuki Sawashiro)

    Miyuki Sawashiro is one of the most prolific voice actors of all time. She first came to prominence as the voice of Puchiko in Di Gi Charat; she famously reprised the role in the English dub of Leave it to Piyoko, becoming the first anime voice actor to voice the same character in both sub and dub. A few of Sawashiro’s other major roles include Kurapika in Hunter x Hunter, Celty Sturluson in Durarara, Bishamon in Noragami, Fujiko Mine in recent installments of Lupin the Third, and Kanbaru in the Monogatari series.

Aoi (Kana Hanazawa)

    Kana Hanazawa needs no introduction, being one of the most popular voice actors of our times. She rose to popularity as Nadeko in Bakemonogatari and its sequels, performing the iconic opening song “Renai Circulation.” Some of her other anime roles include Akane from Psycho-Pass, Mayuri from Steins;Gate, Angel from Angel Beats, Kosaki Onodera from Nisekoi, Hinata Kawamoto from March Comes in Like a Lion, Kuroneko from Oreimo, and Ichika from The Quintessential Quintuplets.

Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045, la prima stagione dell’anime è su Netflix

La Sezione 9 torna in azione sotto la guida di Kenji Kamiyama!

Approda oggi su Netflix la prima stagione di 12 episodi di “Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045″, l’attesa nuova serie animata della celebre saga fantascientifica, che torna ad essere diretta da Kenji Kamiyama (Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex) assieme a Shinji Aramaki (Appleseed Alpha).

Prodotta in computer grafica da Production I.G e Sola Digital Arts, partendo dal riconoscibilissimo character design di Ilya Kushinov (The Wonderland), la serie sarà composta da due stagioni, una supervisionata da Kamiyama e l’altra da Aramaki. Alla sceneggiatura hanno lavorato Kenji Kamiyama, Ryou Higaki (The Eccentric Family, Kuromukuro), Kurasumi Sunayama (Darker than Black, Sfondamento dei Cieli Gurren Lagann), Harumi Doki (Ultraman, Cyborg 009 Call of Justice), Dai Sato (Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Ergo Proxy, Eureka Seven) e Daisuke Daito.

Le puntate sono disponibili in streaming sulla piattaforma con audio giapponese e sottotitoli in italiano.

Il cast principale della serie è lo stesso dei precedenti capitoli del franchise, eccezion fatta per “Ghost in the Shell Arise”  nel quale figuravano altri doppiatori.

Motoko Kusanagi: Atsuko Tanaka

Daisuke Aramaki: Osamu Saka

Batou: Akio Otsuka

Togusa: Koichi Yamadera

Ishikawa: Yutaka Nakano

Saito: Toru Okawa

Paz: Takashi Onozuka

Borma: Taro Yamaguchi

Tachikoma: Sakiko Tamagawa

I personaggi inediti invece sono:

Purin Ezaki: Megumi Han

Standard: Kenjiro Tsuda

John Smith: Kaiji Soze

Kurisu Outomo Teito: Shigeo Kiyama

Takashi Shimamura: Megumi Hayashibara

Dopo una crisi finanziaria globale, nel mondo imperversa una “guerra sostenibile” promossa dall'IA. Tocca alla Sezione 9 respingere qualsiasi nuova minaccia informatica.

La colonna sonora è stata composta da Nobuko Toda (Sweetness & Lightning, The case files of Jeweler Richard) e Kazuma Jinnouchi (Busou Shinki: Moon Angel), i quali avevano già collaborato alla realizzazione di quella della recente serie di “Ultraman” uscita sempre su Netflix.

La sigla di testa, intitolata “Fly with me”, è ad opera dei millennium parade, il team creativo guidato da Daiki Tsuneta dei King Gnu, che si avvale di diversi cantanti fra i quali ermhoi, HIMI, Cota Mori e Kento Nagatsuka (WONK). Il brano di chiusura si intitola “sustain++” ed è invece a cura della band Mili (Goblin Slayer, Merc Storia).

L’iconica opera cyberpunk, nata dall’omonimo manga di Masamune Shirow, edito in Italia da Star Comics, ha già ispirato negli anni due film diretti da Mamoru Oshii, “Ghost in the Shell” (1995) e “Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence” (2004), due serie tv dirette appunto da Kamiyama, “Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex” (2002), “Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG” (2004) e l’OVA “Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex - Solid State Society” (2006). Più recentemente, nel 2013 è stata animata la serie OVA prequel “Ghost in the Shell Arise”, diretta da Kise Kazuchika, proiettata nei cinema e poi adattata per la tv includendo un episodio ponte per il film “Ghost In The Shell: The Rising” (2015). Tutte le opere sono distribuite in Italia da Dynit.

Dreamworks e Paramount ne hanno prodotto nel 2017 un film live action, diretto da Rupert Sanders e con Scarlett Johansson nei panni di della protagonista.
