Summary:

Naruto is a Japanese anime television series based on Masashi Kishimoto's manga series of the same name. The story follows Naruto Uzumaki, a young ninja who seeks recognition from his peers and dreams of becoming the Hokage, the leader of his village. Just like the manga, the anime series is divided into two separate parts: the first series retains the original manga's title and is set in Naruto's pre-teen years. The second series, a direct sequel titled Naruto: Shippuden, takes place during his teens. Both anime series were animated by Pierrot, produced by Aniplex and licensed in North America by Viz Media.

Takahiro Miyashita

[TAKAHIROMIYASHITATheSoloIst.] is scheduled to be presented in the form of an exhibition at the Paris Collection 2015-16AW in January 2015. Designer Miyashita Takahiro's long-awaited return to Paris has been a hot topic of conversation, and amidst all of this, the brand's first photo book was released on December 25, 2014. The book is entirely in black and white, and features three female models, making it a rather mysterious-looking book, but designer Miyashita's aesthetic sense permeates every corner. Could this really be the beginning of a new development for the brand?

・When and how did the project for this photobook start?

"I think I heard about it around the beginning of 2014, maybe before spring. It's the first book to be published by a new publishing company (Unknown Books). We had made a book (catalog) once before, and it was the same people who had finished that. Since I was approached about it, I thought I'd give it a go. I thought this kind of thing would take longer than expected, but I wanted to shoot quickly. I set out to shoot in the morning, afternoon, and evening, but the first time it didn't go well due to the weather. In the end, I went to shoot three times."

◆Even though the magazine is mainly men's, all the models are girls.

"That's right. I decided on that from the beginning. I was only told it should be 80 pages long, and was told to do whatever I wanted, so I didn't want to make something that looked like a catalog or advertisement. I only used my own personal items, and hardly used any of the Soloist's clothes."

●But it fits perfectly, including the fit. Did you work on styling it with Miyashita-san?

"Yes. I just did the styling. I also wanted to design the book myself, so I added text and things like that. There was no special title. After I finished, I thought, 'This doesn't have a title,' and I thought this was good."

◆There are a lot of handwritten letters in the design, including the cover.

"MOGNO6 is a letter artist and typographer. I was introduced to him by Ya-kun (Takagi Yasuyuki/photographer). He is so cool, so I gave him a photo and asked him to create some letters that would go with the photo."

◆ Did you put a lot of thought into the design as well?

"No, it's pretty quick. Even if I plan things out from the beginning, sometimes it's not a very good idea when I get to the scene, so I often think about it as I go along. I think hard beforehand, but it usually doesn't come to fruition (laughs). Coordination, I didn't put anything together. I just brought a lot of things and said, "Put this on," and we piled on ideas."

- They're all in black and white. Are you shooting them on film?

"The basics are digital and Polaroid. For the digital ones, I had planned to edit all the images from the beginning. I told the photographer, Yoshiki Suzuki, that I wanted a beautiful rough texture, so I asked him to edit them to the limit. I didn't want to do something that was already set in stone. I wanted to leave them in an unfinished state, with the feeling that there was more to come. He's a very skillful person, so I think that's why he leaned towards me when taking the photos. I also took the photos from "The Impossible" with a Polaroid. All of the rough ones are like that, and I think there are seven of them, including the cover."

◆It's a really mysterious book because miraculously it all works together without any sense of incongruity.

"It's strange, isn't it? I don't know what I'm trying to say (laughs). I don't really want to say anything. So I just go blank. You're like, what is it? I can only answer, "It's nothing." I don't think too much about it. I didn't think anything of it when I was doing it, but when I actually did it, it felt like a trailer for something."

◆If that's the case, it looks like it might continue.

"I don't know. I'd like to do it if I have the opportunity. I'd like to publish about one book a year, but...

I'm grateful for this first book."

Midnight Break Room 🏴‍☠️ [Barber Beats, Plunderphonics, Vaporwave]

curated by Benjamin G

Mmm, a smooth mix of jazzy beats. I’m somewhat aware of the “vaporwave” genre, but less aware of “barber beats”. And this is the first time I’ve seen the term “plunderphonics”. (I was listening to a mix of “intelligent drum and bass” before this, so I know there’s some overlap.)

Anyway, the mix has been down-tempo with some jazzy bits and funky guitars, here and there. That sort of 1990s “easy listening” music from The Weather Channel’s local forecast segment. “Freq” by VHS Logos and “arrival heights” by GD¥ were the 2 songs that prompted me to post this to tumblr.

I was going to say how ZEXAL I has less sexualized animation than ZEXAL II, but Cathy episode is when it starts becoming like the ZEXAL we mock all the time.

Interestingly, both the hoodie Kotori wore in her house in Fuya episodes part 1, and her late running cycle are obviously based off Yuma, so is her overall characterization in Cathy episode. It seems early ZEXAL, before Yoshida got near full control, was trying to push Kotori as the female counterpart to Yuma, like Anzu in manga, or Yuzu in early half of ARC-V, but they didn't fully commit to it.

(Cathy episode is specifically written by Yasuyuki Suzuki, who will later on become one of the ARC-V writers, which is probably why this idea is more present here.)

Though the joke here is that Cathy does not have a Number, she will later on get Number 29: Mannequin Cat, though she doesn't have the cards to Summon it, though her Deck will likely have Level modulation effects when they are printed.

Kind of shame that Kotori's VA still not into the role at this point of series (even though it seems clear her contract's episode mandate is already present in early ZEXAL), but also her wardrobe will be more extensive in ZEXAL I, than ZEXAL II, before the designs get standarized.

One thing to praise early ZEXAL for, similar to early GX, since characterizations were not fully established, and there was a greater writer variety, and thanks to the lack of a plot, we get to see more different interpretations of the cast. This is one of the good aspects of multiple writers at helm in long running series, an art that is slowly being eroded.
