Main Feature: 3DCG Animation "BLACK ROCK SHOOTER"
BLACK ROCK SHOOTER already has many overseas fans and the TV cartoon at last went on air in January! The illustrations of the armed, black-clad, blue-eyed girl were released on the net in 2007 and shot to fame when an inspired musician wrote a song of the same name using the HATSUNE MIKU VOCALOID SOFT voice synthesizing software and posted it on the NICO NICO DOUGA site. More than 50,000 figurines have been sold!
The big selling points of the animation are the 3D computer graphic visuals and creation of a story! We learn how the character was born through interviews with the people concerned, including Takanori Aki, CEO of Good Smile Company, the figurine firm involved in building the story, and Hiroaki Matsuura, President & CEO of pioneering 3D production company SANZIGEN. Discover all the secrets of this character that is fast becoming a major fad!
