"What is Gypsycore?"
I will never forget the shock I received when I first heard the music two years ago.
The raised pitch of the Roma music and the sudden break with the hail of Amen in the middle really caught me!
It was like a bad head trip!
I really wanted to make a sudden and unlimited impact to you, like what happened to me and that song.
And with square_head's crazy movie, along with this genre first appearing in IIDX, it feels like all cares have been thrown to the wind!
Don't even hesitate, come and play this!
Hommarju out!

Hommarju?! What the heck am I looking at? And why am I looking at a picture of a chicken!
The IIDX team and Hommarju sent me a request asking me to make a movie about "feeling foolish, like you have been hit by a chicken."
Foolish.... Speaking of which, I haven't really seen much animated movies for this game recently.
A chicken... what the hell am I supposed to do with this.
While I was thinking what to do, I listened to this song on a loop... and really became ILL listening to it.
So I remembered the old times with the 5-key games.
I also remembered the rottel series, which were made so long ago yet still sounded fresh.
The opportunity to design a movie off such a song is pretty rare. I needed to take advantage of this situation!
Thinking about what to design, a picture of a rooster and a strong man appeared to me, and momentum began to swing my way, momentum, momentum!
I also wanted to put a street sense to this movie, and it is, this is, this is....!
OH GREAT! THIS IS ACTUALLY HARDER THAN I THOUGHT THIS IS TERRIBLE AAAAHHH...!
The last part in making this movie was actually fun, finishing the movie in a calm and collected manner, while not really bothering with the rules that were made to me in making the movie.
Such is this animation.
I hoped to convey these feelings through the movie, and I was very glad to see such notes from players at the location test.
Also, I hope to make another animation.
PS
If you look carefully behind the logo in the movie, you'll see the meaning of the title.
I think it was really fun, hiding such words in the movie itself. Don't worry, it isn't strange or dirty.
