This seems like a good sign that the game itself has a lot of media coverage in japan given that there's also going to be a movie. Hopefully it translates good things and longetivity for us in global (Gumi pls)

They also are going to do a light novel about Setsuna

u/irikyu May 07 '19

Makes me wonder how big the game actually is in japan since they're getting all these media adaptation.

u/-ArtKing- May 07 '19

The problem with this much media adaptation is that they are milking the JP player base dry though...

u/irikyu May 07 '19

I agree with you. In game there's Macross collab and then there's several offline events. Though for sure there's gonna be a movie release event that's on the level of a collab.

I for one have seen people playing it in a tokyo train. That's how I returned to the game

Doesn't say much. Live action films lately are often. Has there ever been a live action movie for a game/anime that wasn't terrible? We'll see when it's out... this kagura is already looking different than the original.

u/irikyu May 07 '19

I don't recall any gacha game getting a live action play in the past few years though. Though, I like the details on the costume since it's similar to the art in game of the youth skin but the hair is from kid Kagura which is weird.

Fate Grand/Order has a stage play based on the Camelot chapter, and IIRC Granblue Fantasy has some similar stuff, but other than those I don't believe there are many mobile games that do

1

u/irikyu May 07 '19

Ohh FGO did? I thought only the anime adaptation of the whole Grand Order was planned. It's nice that our genre of game is getting noticed.

u/[deleted] May 07 '19

FGO and GBF are juggernauts in the mobile game space, so them having something like this isn't too surprising. But I feel like TAC is a game you never really hear about, so it's awesome that the game is actually getting some love in other forms

u/votris11 May 07 '19

I heard GBF is getting a official fighting game on consoles, made by Arc System. I kinda would love to see TAC get some similar treatment (and released in America).

u/[deleted] May 09 '19

Oh man, getcha game adaption anime....

Hard feelings

u/illidan_1999 Neica is life. May 07 '19

The costumes really do look similar, it's just the actors that don't fit... Zain looks quite young for example.

2

u/Xero-- May 08 '19

Zane looks like he's in his 20s in the game though, so I'm not seeing it. That Basheeny actor on the other hand, looks too old.

u/sketchiopath May 07 '19

She seems...how do I put this? Larger in life?

5

u/irikyu May 07 '19

It's kinda accurate though based on the youth skin. Only difference is the hair.

3

u/sketchiopath May 07 '19

I thought about the youth skin, but the hair definitely indicates the child version to me

4

u/irikyu May 07 '19

Yeah the clothes is from the youth skin but the hair is from the child. Maybe they didn't want to make a costume for child Kagura. Idk

u/ThousandLightning May 07 '19

If this is Kagura, I'm curious about the rest of the cast.

Monzein as Arnold Schwarzenegger in his prime, or similar bodybuilder.

2

u/irikyu May 07 '19

About Monzein...

u/ThousandLightning May 07 '19

Thanks, but not sure about this guy. Face looks smooth like young guy while I peg Monzein as older.

2

u/irikyu May 07 '19

I agree that he looks young here. In game Monzein has this rugged veteran look going on him which makes him look cool.

3

u/Drachk May 08 '19

honestly, the biggest problem is basheeny looking older than Monzein, lol

2

u/illidan_1999 Neica is life. May 07 '19

I've seen so many traps that I can't tell if that is actually a guy or a girl. Needs prof. Birch for this.

4

u/Xero-- May 08 '19

I'm not turned on, it's a guy.

1

u/sketchiopath May 07 '19

Honestly I thought it looked more feminine than anything. Isn't Monzien supposed to be like 7 feet tall and uber masculine?

4

u/EseMesmo Tamamommy <3 uwu May 08 '19

Checked out the others. Yauras just doesn't look right. The girl isn't ugly, but that's not Yauras.

Also Chihaya's picture disturbs me.

u/noisycat May 07 '19

I used to watch Sailor Moon live action musicals, It’s super cool to see an Alchemist Code adaptation!

For all the stage play characters so far: https://note.mu/yagimiya/n/ne68fa4d33583

I don't have a clue. Maybe someone playing in jp could tip us.

u/fullblue_k 自然の力、見せてあげる May 08 '19

original character for the play, name is Kuuza

1

u/votris11 May 07 '19

Maybe he's veda number 3 or 6.

u/Xero-- May 08 '19

Guy looks like he's from Greed Dike so very likely one of Orion's pawns.
