Song Production Information

Jimmy Weckl

I made a very weird song.
As for the clip request, I also asked "Just be cool! Be weird!".
The atmosphere is a bit similar to the restaurants I used to frequent when I was a student.
(Those guys, of course, weren't there...)

Video Production Information

mito

Hi, this is mito.
I was in charge of the content creation, appointments, movie creation, and game console porting.
Jimmy asked me to make it "rough, rough, roughly" so I tried to make the whole surface of the room dimly lit with a blur of light.
The guy with the "joker" at cards is actually the "joker" himself.
Understood?

TqY

Many creators have contributed their works to this year's edition of Gitadora.
In this work, Neko Shogun's drawing ability, not unlike that of a newcomer, brings the rough world of Jimmy to life.
This is one of the acclaimed ones among the designers on the team.

NekoshowguN

Nice to meet you all.
I am NekoshowguN, like a cicada that has finally come out of the ground at this time of year.

For the first time, I was given this opportunity to work in this industry, and I was so nervous that I thought my heart was going to burst out of my buttocks.
...I mean, it did come out. Around two or three times.
And Jimmy's music was so rough that I kept listening to "joker" over and over again and thinking, "I can't do this!".
I was so determined to throw myself off the project that I sat at my desk and computer,
thinking of all the impossible things I could do, like what if I didn't finish by the end of the month,
what if this was all a dream, what if I woke up in a snowy country, and so on.
So I think I was rather satisfied with the result. (That's why?)
No, no, no, I really let my soul go into it.
The image I have is that of a "slightly chilling song"
that is sometimes played on TV programs for young children.
Like the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
...I mean, the Metropolitan Museum that I saw as a child was really scary.
I remember seeing it many times because it was so scary.
