Song Production Information

BaSTeT

The word SPADA generally means "sword".
This work is about the expanded story surrounding a variety of such swords, and the various events which will happen from now that invite our users to this world.

The beginning of such a story decorates this music.


Please enjoy.

Video Production Information

GOLI

It begins with silence immersed in the dark which I think enhances the drama of this strong song.

Even with only a few scenes with armor, I still had to cut a few images at the time of production.
But I thought overall that the song meshed well.

In this song, I liked designing the main character with the sword and the others with blue clothing.



MOVIE concept(・ω<)


A peaceful country.
Both boys and girls studying together at a school.

Unaware of the racial and ethnic conflicts, the country split in two.

Battles were repeated on land continuously, exhaustingly, and the boundaries between both became unclear.
Each country then began taking their own courses.

One revived the forbidden ancient magic, and began to enhance their armed forces.

An unreliable boy named Toledo received the crown and became king.
A clever boy named Theo became his adviser.

The other country detested the use of dark magic, and sought for peace against an invasion.

A free-spirited boy became a strong young man.
The caring and good girl Yaffa became his wife.

On the day of the wedding, the power of the ancient demon influenced King Toledo with tremendous power.
Turning a deaf ear to Adviser Theo's counsel against it, Toledo's mind was attracted to this power.

Soon after, the country was destroyed in an instant.

In that country, a new sun was born on the earth, and a bomb blast came down on that town.
A great roaring sound was heard, and a rain of fire that could not be stopped poured down.

On that day. A day that is supposed to be the happiest for a lifetime.
When Yaffa became a wife, her happiness was cut short by death.
A ceremony that was supposed to be full of celebration and blessings was instead filled with screams and rubble.

The young man heart was broken.
His heart became empty, and nothing could be done to fill all of the holes made by such a tragedy.

In those empty days, he then remembered the voice of the monks.

What was it?
He heard the monks telling him to travel.

He went off to an ancient civilization that died off long ago.
He found the lost dark legacy.

He pursed this lost knowledge in faraway lands.
It surely was a struggle.

A sword.
One sword.
A dull, crazy glowing sword.

It shone like the brilliance of the devil, yet it was fashioned like a halo from God.

The former schoolmates. Young King Toledo. And Minister Theo. Now his enemies.
And even if it took his whole life, he vowed to avenge his wife.

The young man picked up the sword.
One man, crossing across that withered land.

His emotions disappearing step by step, he still walked.

The sword was forged, and was well-sharpened.
He let go of all emotions, and prepared himself.

Blood. Flesh. Souls.
Just one desire. To kill all.

Hatred.
He was pure hatred.

Any other emotions that he may have had were no longer needed, because he had the sword.


That was a lot to write.
