MIRACLE OVERRIDE

Do you remember the two who returned across the vast reaches of time—

and the lights of Earth that waited for them, never forgetting?

This is my second AI music video, created out of love for the anime Gunbuster. Through imagery and music, I’ve tried to capture Noriko and Kazumi’s friendship and struggles, along with the powerful emotions of waiting and returning home across time.

Some stories still make our hearts race, no matter how many years pass.

I hope this video brings back those overwhelming emotions and reminds you of the dreams you’ve cherished for so long.

A Bit of Japanese City Pop Nostalgia from 1979...

STAY WITH ME

By Miki Matsubara is one of the legendary songs known by many and which, I believe, plenty may hold dear to their heart. It's such an honour to be able to cover this song. For me personally, whenever I listen or sing to it, I feel like I'm traveling to a very old period of time, an experience that I can only imagine its beauty in all its complexity. To be honest, when I started working on the cover, I felt nervous as to whether I can deliver the song while making sure to maintain its emotion and energy. I had to be meticulous in preparing the necessary materials such as instrumentals and listing out the overlays and adlibs to be used. Only then will can the cover be presented as best as possible. On top of that, this song is arranged by Harada-san of evening cinema who beautifully evoked the feelings from the cover. The M/V put together by Dian Saku also gracefully portrayed the song visually. With this collective effort, we managed to put together this piece of cover and we hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do ^^

First Gripping Episode...

BLOOD: Episode 1 - The Fourth

(A Morphic Original)

In Wallachia, 1846, an old fortress keeps its secrets behind rain-swept battlements and candlelit stone.

Night after night, Lord Vasari listens to the same delicate melody, unable—or unwilling—to sleep. The guards speak in whispers of “the third one.” A silent young valet watches from the shadows. And somewhere beyond the castle walls, beneath a cold and watchful moon, something is drawing near.

Who, or what, is the fourth?

Enter Lord Vasari’s castle, where every silence conceals a warning, every gaze suggests a hunter, and the darkness may be listening.

Jonny Quest Live Action!

(Click to Watch on YouTube)

About 15 years ago, I recreated the opening title sequence for the greatest animated show ever on television. Like many, I have waited patiently for Hollywood to finally address the obvious need for a live-action JQ movie. With nothing on the horizon, I finally decided to create something on my own. Though JQ was obviously produced in color, I purposely chose to go with a black-and-white look in keeping with my earliest and fondest memory of watching Jonny Quest in our living room on our tiny black-and-white television. Like before, I claim no ownership of Jonny Quest, and this recreation of Episode One is just for fun and to show Those In Charge what it could possibly look like. Enjoy!

When Ririha travels to the Canopy in a desperate bid to save her country, Kaina rescues her, setting in motion events that will lead the pair to travel the world to uncover its secrets.
