Asaki

Greetings 2DX users, Asaki here.
If you like gothic songs, I think you will enjoy this.
Please play it from time to time.

Asaki

It's an EXTRA. Since this is a so-called "boss song", I thought, "Let's make it like a super-boss!", so I made this song.
Surprisingly, I haven't done any gothic songs before. It looks as if I made it rather plain and easy to understand, but if you listen carefully, it's not so plain. I secretly tried to add some strange tastes.
Thanks to this, it has a slightly strange atmosphere (heavy breathing) =3.
Please immerse yourself in it while spinning and weaving.

I was told that this song is going to be ported to 2DX, so I helped a little bit.
The movie size was different, so it was remade for 2DX.
I didn't have the original Gitadora movie at hand, so some scenes may be a little different...

I hope you all play it elegantly in 2DX as well.

Since the song has a gothic taste, I tried to create an elegant and simple illustration.

I always thought about the flow of the lines, so I tried to show them as much as possible.
I used only three Gothic colors: red, black, and white.

Please play it elegantly.
