Farewell, Production Diary!

Last batch of excerpts from Ryukishi’s Production Diary.

I went to Noah Emergency Meeting!

Yesterday, I’ve been at the Psychic Force event “Noah Emergency Meeting 2013” at Loft Plus One in Shinjuku!

Those were the very days of my youth, in the middle of the golden age of gaming, and this event made me so nostalgic that my tear glands were destroyed!
I was playing the PS version of Psychic Force all the time! For about 2 years, I only played as Wong!
That’s why in “Higurashi Daybreak”, when Mion or Shion gets hit and flies away, they say, “How could I…!” (kono watashi ga…!).

Not only was it nostalgic and fun, but I also learned a lot about the distance between the creator and the consumer of a work from the consumer’s end.
Our fans are always helping me so much. Maybe I could think of a work that can further shorten the distance between me and these fans? A really fun event that gave me a lot to think about!

At the end of the event, there was a raffle, and once again, I beautifully dodged my winning by a hairbreadth.
Every time I dodged, I would say “hazure” (miss) and endure my grief. (Wong has an evasion technique, and he says those lines when he successfully evades!)

Nowadays, when it comes to a boss character who stops time 99 out of 100 people would probably answer Dio, so I think I am qualified to receive telepathic messages when I answer Wong.

So, it was a very fun day!
We’re having our 07th party in May, and I hope it goes off like that! I’ll do my best! ( =w=)フンス!

Ryukishi07’s Greatest April Fool’s Day in History…

How did you like our April Fool’s banner?
I was wondering what in the world Tsubasa-san from our staff was making, and then…!

They made a fake screenshot to show what it would look like in the game. Here it is!

…That’s what I was going to write on the evening of April 1.
And then, you see… The Rose Guns scenario data I was working on suddenly crashed!
The latest data is from 13 days ago!! It was a megaton crisis!!!!!!
You’re kidding, this is just an April Fool’s joke, right?!!!!

…That’s what happened.


Please contact Akihabara Data Recovery Lab for your data recovery needs.
It is not a stealth advertising. It is a real advertising.

Rose Guns Season 3 finished!

Rose Guns, Season 3, Master-up!
To the staff, thank you so much for all your help in debugging & for all your hard work!!!

This one includes the climax of season 2 and the first half of season 3, both of which were very difficult.
I hope you looking forward to it & that you are ready to enjoy!

Also, there is a new feature that will be implemented starting this time.
It’s called “Leave the Fighting to Me Mode!”
When you start with this, all combat mini-games will switch to auto.
So I think this is a very useful feature for those who want to concentrate on the story or for those who don’t like mini-games.
The auto mode is also nice, so you can enjoy the joy of battle without the mini-games!

We have not signed up for Summer Comiket this time, but we will leave a small portion of Season 3 to dai who will be there.
Everyone, come visit dai’s space!

So, please wait a little longer for the release.
Here’s a new screenshot from Season 3, which is the staff’s favorite?
Jiro Suzuki-sensei is awesome! It’s like she deliberately drew it this way!

Hou Master-Up

Hou has been mastered!
Thanks to all the staff for their hard work!!

Now I will return to doing an outside job.
I am working on something fun~! It will be awhile before I can give more information, but please stay tuned~!
(@w@)I am the only writer! I can do whatever I want! I’ll do my best!!

I’m doing my best(=w=)

Long time no see, this is Ryukishi07.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to present many different projects in 2016.
Once you stop posting, it’s no good…
This Production Diary is becoming not a nikki (daily diary) but a nenki (yearly diary) bitter laugh

Now, I would like to talk about TRianThology, which was announced on April 2.
After 4 years of planning, conception, etc., it finally got its shape and now we can bring it to this year’s Summer Comiket!

It has already been two years since Romeo Tanaka-sensei and Yuto Tonokawa-sensei sent their scripts to me, and I apologize to both of you for the long wait…!
Btw, my script isn’t finished y[omitted]

Now, I have a little big announcement to make.
For TRianThology, I am responsible for the scenario, some drawings, and overall supervision, but I am a director.
We have asked Nakao Boshi to help us.

Anyway, I hope you will see his direction soon. I wonder if it is really the same programming language.
His, in a good sense, perverted attention to details, the picture in his mind he gets from the text, everything is amazing.

It’s so awesome that every time we look at the progress data, we begin to mutter repeatedly:
“Na-, Nakao…, you’re kidding me, Nakao? Na-, Nakaoooo!!”

I am truly fortunate to be able to get help from such a promising guy.
I am full of determination to never let him go!! No, for real.

To all of you who know the 07th work so far, be very surprised and enjoy it.
And for those who are discovering 07th for the first time, I hope you will enjoy his direction of the world of these three writers.

We have a few more days until Comiket, and the serialization of Country Girl has started ahead of it.

Please wait for its release while reading Iwaihime & Hotarubi no Tomoru no Koro ni or playing Nakao’s works!

I’m involved in two more projects, so stay tuned for more announcements on those as well!

We look forward to your continued support for 07th Expansion and Ryukishi07 in the coming year.
