00:00The Japanese character business market is 2.6 trillion yen in size.
00:10In addition, the market is expanding at the global level, and among the top 10 in the world IP sales ranking,
00:19five Japanese characters are ranked in.
00:23It is an industry where demand is growing worldwide and in Japan.
00:29I, Kotaro Uegaki, will cover the current situation of the industry, which is attracting attention from all over the world.
00:36Galadiz Journal
00:38It is an event of pop culture that originated in the United States and came to Japan.
00:43I think it is the ultimate fan event of the Internet and Comic-Con.
00:47Wow, great! He is showing a pose towards us. Wow, great!
00:52Wow, he is shining in green.
00:56This is what it looks like.
01:04I can hear the music.
01:06That's right, Godzilla has welcomed us.
01:10It's expensive.
01:11Nice to meet you.
01:12Nice to meet you.
01:14Nice to meet you.
01:15My name is Kano Tohono.
01:17My name is Nakatsugawa from Bandai.
01:19Nice to meet you.
01:21I am in the Godzilla room.
01:24I am in charge of all the Godzilla works.
01:28Mr. Tohono has a character, Godzilla,
01:31and he borrows Godzilla to make toys and various products.
01:35That means you can talk to both the licensers and the licensees at the same time.
01:39That's right.
01:40Is there a particular reason why you chose Godzilla this year?
01:43This year is the 70th anniversary of the first Godzilla, which was released in 1954.
01:50It's been a long time.
01:52We picked it up to make it even more exciting at the Tokyo Comic Con.
01:56I see.
01:57Is there any strength to Godzilla as a character?
02:01It has a history of more than 70 years,
02:05so we have a wide range of customers.
02:08In addition, the design of this Godzilla,
02:10the character of Kaiju, and the strength are the key points.
02:14This simple design is very iconic.
02:19You can use it not only for soft vinyl, but also for various apparels.
02:25Godzilla is also very popular overseas.
02:29It is a character that requires a lot of inbound.
02:32That means it has a long history, is easy to use, and is popular overseas.
02:38There are a lot of strengths.
02:40That's right.
02:42First of all, Bandai's Godzilla products.
02:44It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a classic.
02:46It's a movie monster series.
02:48It's a movie monster series.
02:49It's a movie monster series.
02:51It's a soft vinyl figure called Sofubi released by Bandai.
02:56It's a figure made of soft material.
02:59I've heard of Sofubi.
03:01That's right.
03:02Godzilla series also has a lot of characters.
03:08That's amazing.
03:10As a way to exhibit this time,
03:12I want you to feel the 70-year history of Godzilla.
03:15I'm exhibiting the posters of each product with the characters that have appeared in it.
03:21That's right.
03:22This is the latest Godzilla minus one.
03:24It's all at once.
03:26That's amazing.
03:28Even if it's a figure like this, it's still powerful.
03:31The power of the wings, the texture of the scales,
03:34The power of the wings, the texture of the scales,
03:37The details are fine and you can enjoy it.
03:41It's iconic.
03:42It's a characteristic figure.
03:44It's a three-dimensional figure.
03:48It's easy to make toys.
03:50I think we can create a quality that our customers can enjoy.
03:54This is also a classic Godzilla product.
03:58The name of this series is SH Monster Arts.
04:01Unlike the soft vinyl figure next to it,
04:04It's a figure that can move all over the body.
04:10Godzilla, which appears in various works,
04:12When you want to reproduce a characteristic movement or a figure in a poster,
04:19You can move the small parts of the neck.
04:24This is a highly reproducible product.
04:28We are exhibiting a popular product.
04:32I see.
04:34Does your hand move?
04:35My hands move.
04:36My hands move.
04:37My legs move.
04:38My legs move.
04:39My tail moves.
04:40My tail moves.
04:41My tail moves.
04:42Is it important for fans to move?
04:45Our customers love the work.
04:49The pose in the work and the battle with the enemy monster can be reproduced by hand.
04:55The movement is very important because you can enjoy it in that way.
04:58You can actually play with it.
05:00That's right.
05:01You can decorate it.
05:03That's what's important.
05:05And I understand the meaning of iconic.
05:08Godzilla can be in various shapes.
05:11And it can be big or small.
05:13But you can tell it's Godzilla.
05:15I think that's the secret to Godzilla's popularity.
05:20I understand it well.
05:24Next, here it is.
05:27Wow, it says Charajan.
05:30The Jumper is spinning like a rotating sushi.
05:34I'm Kanao from Marushin.
05:36You're from Marushin.
05:38What kind of company is Marushin?
05:40We sell character towels, accessories, and interior.
05:47We design, compare, and sell.
05:51We have two booths.
05:54One is called Charajan.
05:56The other is called Tsukajan.
05:58We mainly sell Tsukajan and Stajan.
06:02When did Marushin, which used to be a 1000 yen company,
06:06become a Tsukajan company?
06:10About three years ago.
06:13Three years ago?
06:14I was a college student then.
06:16Really?
06:17Was it because of Comic Con?
06:19That's right.
06:20It was a product that was likely to sell at Comic Con.
06:23We put a lot of effort into the apparel this time.
06:26I see.
06:27What made you think it was likely to sell?
06:30It's not a cosplay,
06:32but it's a Tsukajan that you can wear as if you were cosplaying together.
06:38That's right.
06:39Cosplay is like dressing up as that person.
06:42That's right. It's a part of fashion.
06:44You can incorporate it into a part of fashion.
06:46It's stylish.
06:48The colors are so beautiful.
06:52This one is great, too.
06:53That's right.
06:54We use a lot of embroidery on the back.
06:58If you look at the back, it's an impactful product.
07:01This is the first Tsukajan we've released this year.
07:05It's a high-class material.
07:07What do you call this material?
07:09It's made of leather.
07:10We made the sleeves.
07:12The material looks a little high-class.
07:16That's right.
07:17It's not all felt.
07:18It's a high-class material that switches materials.
07:21This is a good Tsukajan.
07:25It's chic, calm, and good.
07:29On the back, it's a shark.
07:34We use a lot of embroidery.
07:37This is a switch between the front and back designs.
07:39That's right. It's a design that you can enjoy switching.
07:42Is there a strength unique to Charajan?
07:44In fashion, Tsukajan and Tsutajan are designs that can be used by people who are not involved in fashion.
07:52For example, I want to wear it because I like the character.
07:55I want to wear it because the color is cute.
07:58I want to wear it because it's easy to use.
08:02That's right.
08:03The fact that it's easy to use is a big strength.
08:06That's right.
08:07Thank you very much.
08:08This is a refreshing blue.
08:11That's great.
08:12It's a back-to-the-future Charajan.
08:15This is a reproduction of the tail lamp.
08:19This is an embroidery of lightning.
08:21This is an embroidery of lightning. Is this a tail lamp?
08:23That's right.
08:24The date of the story of 1, 2, 3 is written.
08:28This tickles my intuition.
08:30As a seller, customers buy a lot of men in their 40s to 50s.
08:39I think that Tsukajan's favorite men in their 40s to 50s are well matched.
08:47I think that's one of the popular points.
08:50There are 110 clothes.
08:52That's right.
08:53I'm not sure.
08:54There are 110 clothes, so I'm not sure.
08:57I also chose one of my favorite clothes.
09:00This is Moomin.
09:03What do you think?
09:05It's cute.
09:07It's a very good design.
09:10The sleeves are good.
09:11I'll look back.
09:13What do you think?
09:15Even if I'm walking at night, I can appeal that I'm Moomin.
09:22I think it's amazing that Tsukajan and Karajan can be touched by this cute person.
09:29We have invited someone to tell us about the charm of Comic Con.
09:33There is such a person.
09:35Hello. Nice to meet you.
09:37I'm Sekine Sasara, an official supporter of Comic Con.
09:41Mr. Sekine is the most familiar with Comic Con in the entertainment world.
09:45Are you the most familiar with Comic Con in the entertainment world?
09:47I'm flattered.
09:48But I really like Comic Con.
09:50I love it.
09:56I'd like to introduce you to one of the reasons why Comic Con is supported by fans.
10:01Do you have anything in mind?
10:04Is it cosplay?
10:07That's right.
10:08You can express your taste in cosplay.
10:13That's one of the charms of this event.
10:15I see.
10:19You can not only come here and see various things,
10:22but also express your taste.
10:25Actually, I have an appointment with Yui, a member of the cosplay office.
10:32Cosplay office?
10:34Yes, there is an office.
10:35Is it a cosplay office?
10:37Yes, that's right.
10:38But everyone has to do it personally, right?
10:41That's right.
10:42But I need someone to supervise me.
10:44I'd like you to interview the back side of the cosplay office.
10:47I see.
10:48Let's do it.
10:55Thank you for coming.
10:56Hello. Nice to meet you.
10:59Nice to meet you.
11:00I'm Yui Kana from Onigiri Plus.
11:02Nice to meet you.
11:03Nice to meet you.
11:04There are a lot of cosplayers in this area.
11:08Thank you very much.
11:09What kind of place is this?
11:11This is a cosplay area.
11:14Cosplayers can freely take pictures here.
11:18I see. It's a shooting spot.
11:20Yes.
11:21Comic Con is a place where you can express your taste.
11:25Is that why you want to cosplay here?
11:29That's right.
11:30Other events only take place in this area.
11:33But in this event,
11:35cosplayers can walk around the entire venue.
11:38That's what I like about it.
11:39Is that a special event?
11:41Yes, it's not common in Japan.
11:44I see.
11:45I want to incorporate overseas-style comic con into Japan.
11:49So, I want to incorporate overseas-style comic con into Japan.
11:52So, you can enjoy overseas-style comic con on the Keio Line.
11:56That's right.
11:57Everyone here is the main character.
12:03Everyone is a hero.
12:05That's what this event is all about.
12:07Everyone is the main character.
12:09Yes.
12:10There is a cosplay agency in Comic Con, right?
12:13Yes.
12:14I'm the head of the agency.
12:16Head of the agency?
12:17What do you call it?
12:18Is it like a bank?
12:20How should I put it?
12:21You're the leader, right?
12:22Yes.
12:23What kind of work do you do?
12:25In order for everyone to enjoy cosplay in the venue,
12:29there is something called a cosplay co-issue.
12:32I've seen it.
12:34You can change your clothes, leave your luggage,
12:37and enjoy the venue with your bare hands.
12:41Also, you can get together with the same work
12:44and assemble it together.
12:46You can assemble it together.
12:47Yes, that kind of project can be done by fans.
12:52I think that's the point.
12:54Yes.
12:55What do you usually do, President Yui?
12:58I'm the president of a cosplay agency.
13:01I see.
13:02Yes.
13:03Is cosplay related to character business?
13:06That's a good question.
13:08You sound like Akira Ikegami.
13:10Originally, cosplay was a hobby.
13:14It was a hobby for everyone.
13:18For you, Mr. Hankenmoto,
13:20you're a fan who supports you,
13:23but you're doing it with your copyright.
13:27That's right.
13:28There were times when you were treated like that,
13:32but now the times have changed.
13:34With the spread of social media,
13:36there are more and more companies
13:39that use the influence of cosplayers
13:41to make works together.
13:44That's interesting.
13:45Yes.
13:46Can I ask you one last question?
13:47Yes.
13:48What is the relationship between character and cosplay?
13:52It's love.
13:54A relationship that is bound by love.
13:56Yes.
13:57I got it.
13:58Wow.
13:59You don't have to ask any more questions.
14:01Yes.
14:02I can see that you're expressing your love.
14:07Thank you for your time.
14:10Next,
14:11I'd like to introduce you to a project
14:13that has become a reason why
14:15the Comic Con is attracting women.
14:17Yes.
14:18Did you know that the Comic Con
14:19has a lot of female customers?
14:20Yes.
14:21I didn't think so.
14:22Yes.
14:23I thought there were a lot of male fans
14:25of comic books,
14:27but when I came here,
14:29there were a lot of female customers.
14:31That's right.
14:32Is there a reason for that?
14:36I think it's because
14:39a lot of Hollywood stars come to the Comic Con.
14:42That's right.
14:43Is that so?
14:44Yes.
14:45Why do you want to meet Hollywood stars?
14:47It's because I can meet actors
14:49who played characters in movies.
14:51That's one of the reasons.
14:53There are a lot of people this time as well.
14:55Actually, after this,
14:57I'm going to interview Daniel Logan.
15:01Can I?
15:02Of course.
15:03Daniel Logan appeared in the Star Wars series
15:05when he was a child.
15:07Yes.
15:08He's an actor who comes to both
15:10Tokyo Comic Con and Osaka Comic Con
15:12almost every time.
15:14Is that so?
15:15Yes.
15:16That's right.
15:17I can only interview
15:19Mr. Calbee at Mezamashi TV.
15:21That's true.
15:23That's right.
15:24I understand.
15:26Let's go.
15:27Let's go.
15:30Excuse me.
15:38Good morning.
15:39Good morning.
15:44Excuse me.
15:46Good morning.
15:47Thank you for your hard work.
15:49Hi.
15:50Hi.
15:51Nice to meet you.
15:52Good evening.
15:53Nice to meet you.
15:54Hello.
15:55Hello.
15:56My name is Kotaro Uegaki.
15:58Very nice to meet you.
16:00Yes.
16:03I've never done an interview like this before, so I'm a little nervous about being able to interview a star.
16:12No, no, no, no, no. You're going to do great. You're going to do great.
16:19Can I start right away?
16:21I'm sorry, but I'd like to know what it's like to play a character.
16:26You know, it's been wonderful to be able to bring characters like Boba Fett to life, especially as a young kid.
16:36But I'm just honored because a character like him has helped to bring me to Japan,
16:43which is a country I fell in love with, and I just love your people and the culture.
16:48I see. So you're saying that you fell in love with Japan.
16:56Was there a reason for that?
16:58You know, I've been very lucky since I was a very young boy to be able to come to Japan,
17:04meet the fans of Tokyo Comic Con, Osaka Comic Con.
17:11They continue to ask me every year to keep coming back
17:15and being a part of the Tokyo Comic Con and the Osaka Comic Con.
17:19Because of that, I cleared my whole schedule and I look forward to coming back to Japan each and every year.
17:29I'm glad to hear that.
17:30That's true.
17:32Can I ask you a question?
17:33Can I?
17:34Yes, of course.
17:35This is your first time as the manager of a comic book store.
17:39How did the fans react?
17:43I wanted to do something to give back to the fans that don't have the opportunity to go and meet their favorite celebrity.
17:52So I figured, how about I come and sell and hand out some of the sake?
17:59Because it's a very big traditional thing here in Japan.
18:03I'm talking with the sake company about maybe producing my own flavor
18:11to one of the future cons, the special limited Daniel Logan sake flavor.
18:17Maybe sparkling, maybe fruity.
18:20Nice. Sounds good.
18:22Sounds good?
18:23Yeah, sounds good.
18:24All right, I'm on the right path.
18:25Okay.
18:26It looks like you're totally on the right path.
18:28Yes, I am.
18:29I'm looking forward to it.
18:30I'm looking forward to it.
18:32Thank you very much.
18:34Thank you for the wonderful meeting and conversation today.
18:36Thank you very much.
18:37Thank you very much.
18:40Well, it was a very memorable interview.
18:43Yes, it was.
18:44It was fun.
18:46Were you nervous?
18:47Oh, yes.
18:48Were you nervous?
18:49But this Comic-Con is not just about meeting Hollywood celebrities.
18:53Yes.
18:54You can meet a lot of people.
18:55That's right.
18:56The place we're at now is a place where you can meet world-class artists.
19:00It's called the Artist Alley.
19:02It's written here.
19:03Yes, it is.
19:04Artist Alley.
19:05In this Artist Alley, you can meet world-class illustrators who design characters.
19:12In the first place, this Artist Alley is the beginning of the Comic-Con.
19:16It was the beginning of the Comic-Con that you could meet artists in person.
19:20That's right.
19:21First of all, I have an appointment to interview the first artist.
19:26Really?
19:27Hello.
19:28Hello.
19:29Nice to meet you.
19:30Nice to meet you, too.
19:31I'm Kotaro Uegaki from Fuji TV's Character Biz Journal.
19:33I'm Kichi, an illustrator.
19:34Nice to meet you.
19:35Nice to meet you, too.
19:36I think it was when I was about to enter university.
19:39I was watching this every day before I died 100 days later.
19:44I'm glad to hear that.
19:45It was just the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
19:48Yes.
19:49It's one of the most memorable works for me.
19:53I didn't expect to meet you in person.
19:57For example, there are animals here.
19:59Yes.
20:01Yes.
20:07Yes.
20:09Yes.
20:11Yes.
20:13Yes.
20:21Yes.
20:23Yes.
