Image of “Shenmue III” villain Lan Di finally revealed

It’s been a long wait since the Shenmue III reveal at E3 2015, and an even LONGER wait – 18 years – since the release of Shenmue II, but fortunately, Shenmue creator Yu Suzuki and YS Net have kept a steady trickle of Chinese-water-torture-like leaks to keep their fan base absolutely mad with anticipation. This time, we finally have a good look at the game’s primary villain.

Behold! Lan Di as he…

Yu Suzuki discuss character design, fishing mini-games, and more in recent interview . Thanks to @shen500k #SEGA #Shenmue

It has been roughly three years since Shenmue III had been announced at E3, and with each passing day, fans are getting more excited and anxious about the game’s release. At this year’s MAGIC Monaco, we got some more details about Shenmue III in the form of four new screenshots and an extended trailer from Gamescom last year.   Thanks to the dedicated and passionate Shenmue fanbase, Yu Suzuki was…

This post is preeetty long so I’m putting it under a line. @karinrodd

Well it is alway fun, at least to me, to create new characters and stories, so yes, I did have fun!

The organizators didn’t communicate much between the different deadlines, but I think it was mostly because it was their first time doing the manga contest (and because they’re always late. ). But they were pretty nice and ready to respond to the questions you can have,so  don’t hesitate! It’s best to contact them on their facebook. That’s also where they put the most of the news, so if you’re going to participate to the contest, you should definetly follow it.

https://www.facebook.com/magic.monaco/

Also, the publishers are from Shonen Jump. They’re searching for mangas they could publish on Shonen Jump. Which means you should only consider doing a shonen manga. I would recommand to put some actions in your manga too ( for example in mine there wasn’t enough action for them. They loved the universe and the characters, but I put too much explanations and not enough actions. ).

Give your manga in time (they won’t accept it after the deadline), and strike for the best quality. They say it in their terms and condition document, but I’ll say it again: Make your pages in 1200DPI

You may think your art isn’t good enough compared to other artists participating. The thing is, the artstyle isn’t the only thing that’ll get you in Top 10 or Final. They’ll review a lot of things like the originality of the story, the concept, the characters, the dynamic, if the general public can easily understand it etc etc. Artstyle is only one of the points they’ll take in consideration, but what’s the most important for them is the story and if they can sell it.

It can take time to get the results, because the members of the jury are busy in their life. But don’t worry! They’ll announce the results (on their facebook first ). Just remember they’re always late.

Don’t worry about the manga being in japanese or not. They have translators who will translate it for the publishers so they can read it.

For the ones being in Top 10, you’ll receive the comments on your work AFTER the end of the contest. And it’s very interesting to get feedbacks from professionnals like the publishers and the mangaka guest (this year Tite Kubo). To be honest that’s the most interesting part for me. Also, it’s not because you don’t win a prize that it stops there. I’m saying that because one of my acquaintance was in the 5 finalists, and even though she didn’t win anything, she signed a contract with Shonen Jump + for her one-shot after that. The publishers will remember you and may propose you something after.

When you’re in the 5 finalists, you have to come at the convention and present yourself and your project. Of course they know not everybody (especially the ones living far away ) can come. So, instead, you’ll have to make a video to do this. There will be a translator who will translate everything to the publishers. But if you make a video, try to put subtitles. It helps a lot the translator and the publishers know some english too. Also, PLEASE, don’t do a video where you only show a picture of your face. One of the finalist did that, and I’m sorry, but we’re here for the manga. Of course we want to see the creator but not for 10 min straight, in a video where we don’t even get to see how your manga is. You have to show pictures of your manga, explain why this story, how you had the idea for this story and the characters, etc. They’ll also ask you who are the mangakas and artists that inspires you.

I think that’s all I have to say. If you have further questions, don’t hesitate to ask me, and good luck to you all!

Même si la communication autour de ce Final Fantasy VII Remake ne s’accélère pas du tout, il n’empêche que Nomura nous dévoile de nouvelles images du jeu. Les images sont assez vagues et prises off-screen en plus de ça, il n’empêche que nous n’avons toujours pas de vidéo de gameplay même si apparemment Nomura aurait bien voulu nous en passer une petite.

C’est lors du Magic de Monaco, que le jeu est apparu encore une fois avec un peu de gameplay qui a ensuite été photographié par une personne du public. En plus de ces deux images off screen, on apprend quelques petites choses concernant ce remake de FFVII. La fonction grenades sera toujours disponible et les alliés ne subiront pas de dégâts. Il n’y aura pas d’interruption entre la progression et les combats. Durant les combats avec les boss, certains éléments du décor seront destructibles et pourront nous venir en aide afin de les vaincre.

À noter au passage que le HUD que l’on peut voir à travers ces nouvelles images n’est que temporaire, il y aura une autre interface à la sortie finale du titre. Pour le moment nous n’avons toujours pas de date de sortie ni aucune information sur le titre si ce n’est ces quelques petites choses sur le gameplay du titre. On ignore toujours où en est exactement le jeu sur son développement on imagine que Square Enix profitera de l’E3 2017 pour nous en dire davantage à ce sujet.

A new interview with Yu Suzuki has been surfaced.

Yu Suzuki's latest interview discusses Shenmue III's Character Perspective System, soundtrack, and more

@TeamYu and @Shenmue_Dojo sat down with @yu_suzuki_jp for a great interview. #Shenmue3

Ever since Shenmue II ended on that cliffhanger 15 years ago, it has been one long wait for Shenmue fans to see the story continue. When Yu Suzuki came out on stage at last year’s E3 to announce Shenmue III, Shenmue fans across the globe broke the internet (as well as records) by making the sequel to Suzuki-san’s magnum opus the fastest funded video game Kickstarter in history. Yu Suzuki, Gio…
