The NieR Automata 5th Anniversary Fan Festival 12022 event was amazing! I went to the Day 1 show, and here's my thread of topics they covered, song list, and a short summary of the various drama readings by the voice actors and actresses! 🧵 #NieRAutomata NieR Fanfest event was separated into three segments:
-dev talk with Yoko Taro, Yosuke Saito, Takahisa Taura (Platinum Games Dev), and Ito Saki (Nier Replicant 1.22 Director)
-seiyuu talk and light-hearted drama reading
-concert + original story for NieR Automata AND Replicant

Okay so..there's even more oddness to the NieR Automata Church video. I noticed earlier but decided to translate subs based on the canon Replicant dialogue.

Church video:
本当の声は誰に間う

1.22 Japanese dialogue:
本当の声は誰に問う

There's a big difference between 間う & 問う The word 間う is almost never used. I had to Google this to see its true meaning, and it's apparently another way to write 窺う, which means to spy, to examine closely.

It looks like a typo where the dialogue should have said 問う (to ask).

FFXIV 6.2 NEW TEASER ART DROPPED WITH THEMIS, ERICHTHONIOS, AND LAHABREA, LET'S GOOOOO! 😱😱😱 Who's the guy on the bottom? That's not Hesperos, right?

There is a very weird coincidence going on regarding that "sadfutago" user's NieR Automata church video posts on reddit and the time codes in relation to the NieR Automata 5th Anniversary event ticket lottery announcement...

here's a short thread about this conspiracy theory lol So originally back in June 28th when the event was first announced, fans living in Japan could apply for the lottery to get a chance to win a ticket to the event.

The announcement for the lottery should have been July 26th at 3pm.

NOMURA'S TEASER ART FOR THE SUPER GROUPIES KINGDOM HEARTS 20TH ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION OMG YES!!!!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩 Each item will come with a special postcard featuring Nomura's art of Sora, Roxas, and Ventus together.

Pre-order the entire collection today:

The collection features a watch, jacket, wallet, backpack, and umbrella for the Destiny, Sea Salt, and Wayfinder trios! It's a GIANT collection full of intricate details 😱😱 @Super_Groupies The fits and accessories look so slick!!! I like how they went for a minimalistic design this time but has bursts of color or character details if you look closely!

SO UHH…YOU CAN’T POST WHAT’S INSIDE THE TREASURE BOX UNTIL APRIL, BUT THE KINGDOM HEARTS HOTEL IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING 😭

thread of what’s inside the KH hotel room~ The Sora and Kairi bedding and photo frames are so pretty❤️ #KingdomHearts

💪MY HERO ACADEMIA WORLD HEROES MISSION MOVIE SUMMARY THREAD💪

#WHMspoilers

I watched the Boku No Hero Academia WORLD HEROES MISSION movie on opening day, and here's my summary translation.

I give the movie a 7/10. Not as good as the previous movies, but still a lot of fun! The movie starts off with Humarize committing an act of terror and bombing a bunch of people to remove their quirks, but this also causes their quirks to explode, killing a ton of civilians. This cuts to everyone already at their internships around the world. #WHMspoilers

FF7R Producer Kitase and Co-Director Hamaguchi talked a bit about Part 2 during the CEDEC conference! Here's the excerpt's translation.

Kitase mentions for Part 2, they want to deliver something that will live up to everyone's expectations but also throw them off, in a good way. It took me a while to translate Kitase's quote because I was having trouble finding the right words to translate 「いい意味で裏切る」(literally "a betrayal in a good way"). I interpreted it as surprising the audience by going beyond their expectations but to "throw them off."

All right CEDEC+ Kyushu 2020 Online, let's see what interesting info about the FF7R development Kitase and Hamaguchi have to say!

I'll post highlights or interesting info starting now! The event has started, and you can sign up here to get the event link: peatix.com/event/1750894/… MC Question: How did the Remake become an actual thing?

Kitase: It was a decision made after speaking with Nomura and Hashimoto. In particular, Hashimoto mentioned he always wanted to make a game like Advent Children, and it became a project after much discussion.
