The gameplay looks awesome, but I can't get past the cookie-cutter soundtrack and the usual painfully melodramatic voice acting that Japanese games with western voice actors seem to end up with. If all the dialogue in the game sounds like that I'd use that spear on my eardrums. :\
COSTUME REF: Photos of Traditional Japanese armor/art/depictions/kabuki/patterns/clothing..etc.. (Everything in the black box is Tengu specific) Some photos are different depictions of Tengu that I commonly saw. Also added in LoL Blood Moon art as an extra 'moodboard'.
Hi Dabu I don't quite understand "asian goth girl." Is the girl asian? Any country in particular? Because she's looking very western right now. If she's asian, might be easier to actually give her a nationality, like Japanese, for easier reference?

Wow, awesome stuff. Congrats to all you Gearbox guys. Looks great. Hawken - Seriously? I always thought that Japanese covers looked like it was farther back in time from a design perspective? http://ryuker.carrotnetwork.com/images/magazines/famitsu_200606/images/famitsu_20060616.jpg

Really guys?! No one is excited about this or getting this?!?! I thought we were gamers! This is a damn awesome title I had the great fortune to play on a friend's modded Wii (the Japanese release). I am really surprised it came stateside but super happy it did. Where is all the love?!
Set concept for Ember Spirit. Wanted to go for a more monk look for him without it looking too much like japanese warrior monks. Sword shaped like a chinese dao and some chinese shapes and motifs. And a chinese moustache! :] Critique is always welcome :]
http://ps3.ign.com/articles/122/1220529p1.html omg really sad about silent hill 1 director currently making gravity gaze puzzlie for psv while konami can't care enough to dispatch a Japanese art-director for their outsorce studios.
I saw it Rooster, finally a decent take on games. Was a big fan of his Screenwipe series too. Nice to know a PCer did the spoof game stuff, it looked very believable. I actually thought the neighbourhood game was some Japanese weirdness for a while.
