Zaprezentowano pierwszy pełny zwiastun Solo Leveling

Hej! Świeże wieści dla fanów Solo Leveling! Właśnie podczas wydarzenia Aniplex Online Fest 2023 zaprezentowano pierwszy pełny zwiastun anime na podstawie manhwy napisanej przez Chugonga i rysowanej przez zmarłego DUBU z REDICE Studio. Ale to nie wszystko! Do obsady dołączyła Haruna Mikawa w roli Aoi Mizushino (siostra Shuna Mizushino - w japońskiej wersji to zmienione imię Sung Jinwoo).

Za kilka kluczowych elementów anime odpowiedzialni będą:

Projekt postaci drugoplanowych: Chiaki Furuzumi

Projekt potworów: Hirotaka Tokuda

Projekt rekwizytów: Sotaro Shiraishi

Reżyser ds. sztuki: Yasuhiro Okumura

Kolorystyka: Naomi Nakano

VFX: Daichi Iseki

CG: Toshitaka Morioka

Grafiki ruchome: Hiromu Ōshiro z Production I.G

Montaż: Yūji Kondō

Reżyser dźwięku: Ryō Tanaka

Jeśli chodzi o główną obsadę, to w roli Sung Jinwoo (w wersji japońskiej Shun Mizushino) wystąpi Taito Ban. Do tego dołączą Reina Ueda, Hiroki Touchi, Genta Nakamura, Daisuke Hirakawa, Banjou Ginga i Makoto Furukawa.

Pamiętajcie, że anime zadebiutuje już podczas nadchodzącej zimy, najpewniej w styczniu 2024! Crunchyroll po raz pierwszy ogłosiło adaptację tej serii podczas swojego panelu na Anime Expo w lipcu 2022.

Jak opisuje Crunchyroll fabułę: od ponad dekady istnieją "bramy" łączące nasz świat z innym wymiarem. Pewni ludzie przebudzili w sobie nadnaturalne moce i są znani jako "łowcy". Jinwoo Sung, łowca niskiej rangi, jest znany jako "najsłabszy łowca wszech czasów". Pewnego dnia przyjmuje tajemnicze zadanie i po tym, gdy był bliski śmierci... zaczyna zdobywać poziomy, jako jedyny łowca na świecie.

Za reżyserię odpowiada Shunsuke Nakashige, a głównym scenarzystą jest Noboru Kimura. Tomoko Sudo zajmuje się projektowaniem postaci, a Hiroyuki Sawano - komponowaniem muzyki.

Crunchyroll będzie transmitować anime poza Azją. A jeśli chodzi o manhwę, jej adaptacja zaczęła się w marcu 2018 i zakończyła w grudniu 2021. Oczywiście możemy też cieszyć się japońską wersją pod tytułem "Ore Dake Level-Up na Ken".

To na tyle na dzisiaj! Trzymajcie rękę na pulsie, bo Solo Leveling na pewno przyniesie jeszcze wiele emocji! 💥

Jin Saotome - O super-esquentadinho piloto de Mechas da Capcom

Em 1979, surgiu a Capcom, e com a empresa, diversas franchises que popularizaram a empresa, como é o caso do game 1942, lançado em 1984, e Ghosts ‘n Goblins, que foi lançado em 1985, com a premissa de um cavaleiro doidão que perambula pelos mais diversos ambientes do mundo dos demônios para derrotar um poderoso rei demônio e resgatar uma princesa. Mega Man surgiu em 1987, e conta a história de um garoto robótico azulado, designado à tarefa de derrotar um exército de robôs desordeiros e entregar um certo cientista maluco à justiça. Street Fighter ‘87 foi lançado em 1987, mas não causou muito impacto no lançamento, deixando o verdadeiro sucesso da franquia florescer com Street Fighter II, que surgiu em 1991 e posteriormente teve diversas atualizações. Final Fight foi lançado em 1989 com a premissa da donzela em apuros, ou seja, Mike Haggar, junto de Guy e Cody, partem às ruas para destroçar a gangue Mad Gear e para resgatar Jessica, que foi sequestrada por eles. A Capcom elaborou outras franquias, tais como Resident Evil(1996), que inaugurou o gênero Survival Horror, Darkstalkers(1994), um game no qual entidades assustadoras inspiradas em monstros do gênero de terror digladiavam entre si, e Marvel VS. Capcom(1998), um crossover entre os heróis da Marvel Comics e alguns personagens da Capcom. 

Mas, e Jin Saotome?! O que podemos falar sobre ele?! A primeira aparição do personagem se deu em Cyberbots: Fullmetal Madness(1995), sendo que o mecha sob o qual ele assume comando, BX-02 Blodia, foi usado antes em um game chamado Armored Warriors(1994), um beat ‘em up com super-robôs, com um outro protagonista, com uma temática de crise interplanetária. Em Cyberbots, somos apresentados a um jovem chamado Jin Saotome, que busca seguir os passos do pai dele, Ken Saotome, ao estilo de um soldado tradicional japonês. Embora tenha inspirações no pai, Jin auto-aprendeu as técnicas de luta dentro e fora de um Variant Armor, e embora ele seja um autodidata, sem, qualquer alistamento oficial, os traços do jovem Saotome são uma representação paródica exagerada dessa imagem, incluindo uma adesão ao Bushido(武士道 lit. O caminho do Guerreiro), que em um passado muito distante, era o código de moralidade samurai. Jin é extremamente esquentado, mas ainda assim é um rapaz boa-praça. Jin tem amizade com Gawaine Murdock, o antigo mentor do pai dele. 

Visão geral

Enquanto que Jin Saotome compartilha muitas similaridades com Domon Kasshu, protagonista de Mobile Fighter G Gundam(1994), Kinu Nishimura declarou que a base para a criação do personagem foi Kakugo Hagakure, protagonista de Apocalypse Zero, outro personagem baseado em uma versão exagerada de um soldado japonês da Segunda Guerra Mundial, ambos usam versões de armadura de ficção científica de uniformes de piloto de caça com lenços gigantes e detalhes espinhosos. O nome do personagem refere a dois personagens de Getter Robo, Hayato Jin, e o Dr. Saotome. Em Cyberbots: Fullmetal Madness, Jin Saotome é dublado por Toru Furuya, que é o mesmo dublador do personagem Amuro Ray, protagonista da primeira iteração em anime de Mobile Suit Gundam, que foi ao ar em 1979. Toru Furuya também dublou o Cavaleiro de Pégaso, Seiya, da série Saint Seiya, e o desastrado Yamcha, de Dragon Ball Z. Em Marvel Vs. Capcom, porém, Jin é dublado por Yūji Ueda, que também dublou Strider Hiryu, e Sanosuke Sagara, deuteragonista de Rurouni Kenshin.   

Enredo

Ken Saotome(Pai de Jin), era integrante de uma força especial de elite que foi dizimada em uma ação que foi suposta para ser um acidente um ano antes dos eventos de Cyberbots. Para honrar o legado do pai dele, Jin vai para a Terra, descendo de uma colônia espacial, com a finalidade de se tornar o melhor piloto de Variant Armor e provar o valor dele no circuito de batalha de V.A., para fazer fortuna. Ele se questiona sobre a morte do pai dele após o primeiro confronto com Shade, que por sua vez, era o responsável. 

Marvel VS. Capcom

Em Marvel VS. Capcom: Clash of the Super Heroes, Jin Saotome aparece como um personagem jogável, invocando a mão gigante do BX-02 Blodia para um super-soco efetivo e consistente, denominado BLODIA PUNCH, e muitos dos ataques efetuados por Jin têm o efeito de fogo, que incendeia o adversário. Em Marvel VS. Capcom 2, Jin reaparece, no entanto, não há nenhum enredo no game, ou seja, é pancadaria pura rolando solta. Em Marvel VS. Capcom 3, o personagem faz apenas uma aparição especial. 

Ryu presta homenagem a Jin Saotome no Street Fighter 5

Em Street Fighter 5, há um DLC especial no qual Ryu traja o uniforme do protagonista de Cyberbots, mas dentro do game, ele utiliza as técnicas de luta que aprendeu quando era mais jovem, tais como Hadouken, Shoryuken, e Tatsumaki Senpuu Kyaku, mas como na época os sons do CPS-1 eram muito abafados, o que causa muita estranheza, e muitas pessoas interpretavam os golpes de muitos personagens de maneira errada, dizendo frases como Adugen, Horyugen e Ostrektrektrugen... Tiger Robocop, por exemplo, é o nome que foi dado ao golpe Tiger Uppercut, técnica de combate de Sagat que se assemelha ao Shoryuken, técnica de Ryu...

Holy crap Zwei is probably one of the most amazing fan projects I've ever seen for princess tutu, I am in awe of your talent and love for the series!!! Also, I'm curious what Ivan and Claudia sound like in your head! Who would be your dream seiyuu for them?

Thank you so much! It feels amazing to hear this!

Wow, that's a difficult question... I was a real seiyuu fan about 10 years ago and I loved to find anime with same voice actors. I think it was a thing back then, fans knew a lot about Japanese seiyuu... but nowdays I don't know much of the new seiyuu and I don't interact in the fandoms much (I just post art I don't really like social media it's very burdening for me so I just keep it low here).

My forever loves are Yūji Ueda, Sōichiro Hoshi and Takahiro Sakurai (Fakir's voice actor bet you didn't see that coming lol) for the guys, and some of my favorite ladies include Mamiko Noto, Ayako Kawasumi and Marina Inoue (when she voices girls). There are many I like but these come from memory.

Honestly anyone would be more than fitting so I have no ultimate favorite. The cool but unpredictable guy and the sweet looking girl who takes initiative and has strong/harsh values... they could play them definitely.

Giichi (One Piece Oc- Slayer Of Kurozumis)

Name:  "Two Toned" Giichi DOB: Feburary 23rd Sexuality: Straight Occupation: Samurai (Ronin) Age: 72 Residence: Wano Race: Human Headcannon Voice Actor: Yūji Ueda (Japanese Voice Actor) ; Lex Lang (English Voice Actor) Personality: At heart he is a revenge driven man who is dedicated to finally killing all Kurozumis even those who are innocent. He is also shown to be very ruthless enough that he will kill a Kurozumi child or pregnant woman like with Sayuri (both as a child and an expectant mother). He strongly is dedicated to the memory of his father even decades after his death believing that ridding the Kurozumi will finally bring honor to a man who served a treacherous man. He views things in black and white and believes there is no way there could ever be a good Kurozumi and leaving one alive will make them go off and do something just as rotten.He has a big sense of justice which has been corrupted into a sense of vengeance. He is also a big supporter of the Kozuki clan and wants to someday see them back on the throne. He also is loyal to Denjiro, especially after finding out that he was a Scabbard. He is a very serious man and rarely cracks jokes, which has been noted by many people if he ever knows how to smile. In fact, the only thing that can get him to smile is eating Sui-gyoza and will instantly drop anything for it. While he is noted for his focus, he will instantly drop the topic to talk about Sui-gyoza. He has a distrust of foreigners due to the Beast Pirates' influence, but will tolerate them if they can help fight against Orochi and Kaido. Also despite his compsure it will instantly go out the window once he made a kill and he will become as merciless and savage as possible. He also gives no mercy to anyone in his mind is an ally of the Kurozumi which includes killing Yosuke after her tried to protect his wife. He is also hard on himself a lot because he believes himself to have cursed ties with the Kurozumi that can only be mended by killing them all. Background: He was the son of a man who used to work for the Kurozumi family. His father forever held great disgrace for having served such a treacherous family until his guilt finally got him and he committed sepukku. Giichi feeling sorrow for his father's blight dedicated himself to one day ridding the country of all Kurozumi. He since he was a teenager dedicated to finding and trying to kill any Kurozumi. He would even try to keep taps on any Kurozumis that could have been killed as well. One Kurozumi he tried to kill was Kasunagi after killing her parents. After she got away from him, he dedicated himself to hunting her down since he was ready  not to let any Kurozumi live. Over the years, he still on the side try to find any Kurozumi that was left and only came across a few (which made him happy since this made him think this was a sign the clan was nearly extinct). When Orochi came into power he was distraught about the changes he was bringing to the country, especially exploiting the citizens. When he found out he was a Kurozumi family member during the execution of Oden he vowed to find a way to kill him. Eight years after Oden died, he finally found Kasunagi living in Amigasa village and slaughtered her and her husband in the night. While he killed him, their daughter was there when she witnessed their murder and Komayo rushed to get her out of there before he realized she was their child. He was going to run after them until Tenguyama Hitetsu intervene and saved them both. He ran off but vowed to one day go after Sayuri like he did with her mother. In the meantime, he joined the Kyoshiro family in order to get close with Orochi and was considered one of the top members despite his old age. Despite wanting to kill the man himself, he did follow through with maintaining his cover and not incurring Kaido's wrath. Like Denjiro/Kyoshiro, he became a trusted member in Orochi's eyes, despite being ignorant to his hatred. During the time that Sayuri had become King's mistress, he found out she was a Kurozumi during one of her meetings with Orochi. And eventually he found out she was pregnant by King which infuriated even more due to the fact that not only did she escape his grasp but she also is now continuing the cursed family line. When the time finally came to help the alliance raid Onigashima he joined with Denjiro, while also donning a disiguise as they entered into the banquet. When Orochi was finally beheaded he rejoiced inwardly and snuck off to find Sayuri so he could finally kill her, when he finally found her in King's quarters he then tried to kill her until she showed her fighting skills and managed to fend herself long enough to get away from him. He tried to pursue her until  he was knocked down by a burning piece of wood. Despite the fact she could have killed him, she showed him mercy and put him at a safe place and ran off. * His favorite food is Sui-gyoza * Due to his extreme determination to exterminate the Kurozumis he swore off marrying anyone. However, he has had some relationships one of which probably ended up with him having a illegitimate child. * He uses archaic samurai language. * He wore a samurai mask that belonged to his father when he was killing Kurozumis. It left his eyes exposed which left an impression on Sayuri who remembered them all those years. * He got his scar from an encounter from one of the earlier Kurozumis he killed and after that wore his samurai mask to protect himself. * He thinks due to his family's ties with the Kurozumi he believes himself to not be deserving of wearing a top knot.
