Memorial Keys

♡♡♡♡

I saw the trailer for Deemo Memorial Keys and I just had to share some love for this masterpiece!

Definitely check it out !

[satoshi-mochida]

Eleven Arts announced that DEEMO Memorial Keys will air in US theaters beginning on Thursday, February 2. The film can be found in select theaters nationwide and will feature both Japanese audio with English Subtitles and a brand-new English dub version.

Those wondering if DEEMO Memorial Keys is playing near them can check the official website.

The English dub cast features talents from Michelle Marie (Pride of Orange, Talentless Nana) as “The Girl” Alice and Masked Lady, Anairis Quiñones (Jujutsu Kaisen 0, Attack on Titan) as Alice, Bryce Papenbrook (Attack on Titan, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba) as Mirai and Hans, Mike Pollock (One Piece, Sonic X) as Nutcracker and Professor Valensky, Luci Christian (One Piece, My Hero Academia) as Fragrant Sachet and Sania, and Stephanie Sheh (Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, Sailor Moon) as Rosalia.

DEEMO Memorial Keys tells the story of the character, DEEMO, who lives in solitude, playing piano in a castle. One day a girl without her memory finds her way into the castle and asks for his help. The two must work together to get her home, but that will require DEEMO to use his powers to make a magical tree grow and allow her to escape.

You can watch the English dub trailer below:

me: oh whats going on with rayark (dev. of cytus/sdorica/deemo/voez etc.)

twitter: most if not all of their new artworks are AI generated (MtL'd but native speakers have corroborated that the key idea is in-tact here). [see addendum below].

here's a former art director of cytus 2:

image in case it goes down

other [musical] artists who have worked on the game (such as kurokotei) have denounced the game and the company's attitude about AI art.

there's been pretty substantive backlash from each of the communities and the rhythm game community in general is not super enthusiastic about AI art. word has spread across their fanbases to universal disdain - there's a general agreement that this company should be buried within our memories because yeah, it's easy to say that "if it looks good why do you care where it came from", but that's just it - it lacks the technical polish and art direction that makes those games memorable but it's impossible to understand that argument if you're only interested in engaging with ai art discourse as a means of arguing about aesthetics or "real art" as opposed to the practical consequences of something a very loyal fanbase cherishes that has actually been tarnished by this new direction. art direction in particular is a huge part of the appeal of this company's works, and a lack of consistent aesthetic and artworks really does bring the roof down. whether you like things like vocaloid or rhythm games, you probably understand that the accompanying art for a song is a lot more than just a picture - the visuals are tied deeply to the impact and legacy of a song. the ui in those games is so barebones but the art carries them heavily.

this really stinks.

Addendum: A popular claim on twitter is that a lot of their artists were fired (one I did not make, given that there was no tangible proof of this). Rayark has issued their own statement clarifying that they have not fired their art team but doubled down on their commitment to AI art in a move to "adapt to the times" (a claim which is questionable given that industry leaders in the Mobage space don't really use AI-content for international titles but it might be more applicable to other regions).

While this assuages some fears (namely the shift to 100% AI Art, a fear which was largely a reaction to the yahoo article), the lack of transparency around the art direction (given that Sdorica and Cytus II have both been using AI Art to promote for a while now) is still something the broader fanbase is worried about. The reception from KR & EN audiences has been largely negative, JP is mixed but less intense. This still begs the question of whether AI-generated content will mean less collaboration with artists in the in-game content.

People have speculated that the press statement is written by ChatGPT, but text AI-gen detection is far less sophisticated than reading Stable Diffusion outputs (which has come a long way in terms of certainty).

Deemo - Combining Story and Rhythm to One

Can you imagine a game that is memorable with its music and enthralls you with utter curiosity? A game that is free and doesn't require an internet connection to access the songs? A kind of game that will soothe you and calm your mind? Then buckle up! Because Deemo can fill your hungry heart with fantastical twists!

Deemo is vastly popular worldwide considering that it is developed by the Rayark Company, furthermore, there has an anime adaptation called DEEMO Memorial Keys, you can check it out to see for yourself!Currently, there is Deemo and Deemo Reborn (sequel), I haven’t played the sequel yet so I’ll simply share the original one, but! If you’re interested to play the sequel, you can freely download it on App Store and Google Play. Now then, let's get started!

Deemo is not only a score-based rhythmic game that will strengthen your cognitive functions, but it also has a stirring plot!  Get motivated by clicking those piano keys as we get to witness Alice, the main character slowly regaining her memories and finding her way to get back into her world with the help of a non-talking friend Deemo! And all together, we will get to stumble upon some discoveries and cliffhangers that will surely intrigue you to know what will happen within the next chapter! To unlock those chapters is to play the game OR! you need to be reminded of collecting the magical spark surrounding the place, they're usually hidden somewhere so you better keep your eyes wide open to every place you go. Additionally, collecting them would strangely make some slight changes to the objects in the game.

There are three main levels, Easy, Normal, and Hard, each with a difficulty rating measured in a 'Level' scale. The player can also customize the speed of the notes before starting a level, on a scale of 0.5 (slowest) to 9.5 (fastest). Songs can also be "autoplay" (in the Chart Mode), which plays the song automatically but disqualifies any scores. The player must tap on the notes when they reach the bottom line in time with the music, resembling playing on a piano. Black notes with a white interior are the same as normal black notes, only representing non-piano sounds.

Mine notes are the opposite: the player should not tap or slide the note when they reach the bottom line. The player's performance is judged by the accuracy at which each note is hit, which is divided into two types, "True Charming" and "Regular Charming". Misses are also subdivided into three types, white, red, and no glow. At the end of each level, the game shows the player's overall performance in a result screen, providing the proportion of "Charming" hits, the longest chain of consecutive successful hits (Combo), and the overall accuracy in percentage form, with 100% denoting all hits are "Charming".
