SPIRIT's Diary

I keep paying that person to fulfill my illustration requests. I once heard somewhere that people say: “Neither illustrations nor novels are any good unless they have a strong theme.” In other words: “When requesting an illustration, the request itself also needs a strong theme.” In my case, I hope the themes with the greatest impact are: “Harem Protagonists as the Eight Dog Warriors/Hakkenshi” “Girls und Panzer Commanders as the Eight Dog Warriors/Hakkenshi” —in other words, my Eight Dog Warriors/Hakkenshi series. According to Google Gemini, a “strong theme” is: “In art and creative works, a central subject with such a powerful message that it strikes deeply at the viewer’s heart.” In the context of art and creative works—films, novels, music, and so on—it means the message or idea that the creator most strongly wants to convey through the work. Meaning: It presents a universal subject, such as “love,” “war,” or “human ego,” in a powerful and distinctive way. Characteristics: It deepl...

Again, I requested Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)) an illustration. This time is, “As Inue Shinbei, Kasugano Haruka and Shimada Arisu are showing orbs of 仁(Jin/benevolent) Haruka and Arisu: We’re Inue Shinbei Masashi. We have orbs of 仁(Jin/benevolent). Finally, I've collected illustrations 8 pairs and 16 people. I want to show gather round of these pictures soon. They are very cool! HAKKENSHI! FIGHT FOR JUSTICE!! Casting of "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi" and "Garupan Captain Group as Hakkenshi" is below. Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi 仁(Jin)/benevolent: Inue Shinbei: Kasugano Haruka(Yosuga No Sora): (CV: Shimono Hiro) 義(Gi/justice): Inukawa Sosuke: Manaka Junpei(Ichigo 100%): (CV: Suzumura Kenichi) 礼(Rei/courtesy): Inumura Daikaku: Yuiga Nariyuki(We Never Learn): (CV: Oosaka Ryota) 智(Chi/wisdom): Inusaka Keno: Yuuki Rito(To Love Ru): (CV: Watanabe Akino) 忠(Chuu/loyalty): Inuyama Dosetsu: Ichijou Raku(Nisekoi): (CV: Uchiyama Koki) 信(Shin/fai...

By using Claude Code, we could analysis moving of videos. By using illustrations, "The Duel of Horyukaku/Horyu Tower by Harem Protagonists" and "The Duel of Horyukaku/Horyu Tower by Garupan Captain Group", I analyzed moving of their videos. In this way, each 2 seconds, Claude Code introduces moving of videos. It made me amazing. Can I use Claude Code more?

On some corners of the internet, there are indeed voices saying, "Hakkenden should be made into an NHK Taiga drama." If it ever happened, I would be nothing but grateful. Still, I cannot help wondering whether it is actually possible.     One factor that makes Hakkenden difficult to adapt for the screen is its sheer length. After all, the original work took twenty-eight years to complete. Considering that scale, perhaps only the running time of an NHK Taiga drama could keep up with it.   (The 2024 film Hakkenden seems to have had reasonably decent reviews.) Of course, it could also be broadcast as something like one of TV Asahi's Super Sentai series. But would children today be interested in heroes who do not transform, let alone in something close to a period drama? (Lemon-chan from Kochikame likes period dramas, though.)     In addition, while the story of Hakkenden is long, its content is fundamentally simple: good triumphs over evil. ...

Again, I requested Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)) an illustration. This time is, “As Inumura Daikaku, Yuiga Nariyuki and Mika are showing orbs of ‘礼(Rei/courtesy)’.” Nariyuki and Mika: We are Inumura Daikaku Masanori. We have orbs of 礼(Rei/courtesy). In my original setting, Inumura Daikaku is only type, that he launches attack with hiding his weapon, in outside of line of battle, like Honda Udoku in Rurouni Kenshin Hokkaido Arc. I think both Nariyuki and Mika are suitable to this setting. I t would be the best, if Hakkensh/Eight Dog Warriors have various type. Some fight fiercely on the front line. (Inuzuka Shino? Inuta Kobungo?) Some destroy enemies by surprise moving from the rear line. (Inuyama Dosetsu? Inusaka Keno?) In next times, I requested an illustration of "Inue Shinbei pair (Kasugano Haruka and Shimada Arisu)". How will be the quality? HAKKENSHI! FIGHT FOR JUSTICE!! Casting of "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi" and "Garupan Captain G...

Again, I requested Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)) an illustration. This time is, “As Inusaka Keno, Yuuki Rito and Darjeeling are showing orbs of ‘智(Chi/wisdom)’.” Rito and Darjeeling: We’re Inusaka Keno Tanetomo. We have orbs of Chi（悌）/wisdom. Chat GPT says that Hakkenden is  "Japanese Avengers" or "Super Sentai/Power Rangers in Edo period". Among it, Inusaka Keno is very popular on account of gaps of beautiful appearance and cruel action. Both Rito and Darjeeling are also popular among Harem Protagonists and Garupan Captain Group. I think Rito and Darjeeling are very suited-role the most to Keno. (I prefer the pairs of Ichijou Raku and Nishi Kinuyo as Inuyama Dosetsu the most.) In next times, I requested an illustration of "Inumura Daikaku pair (Yuiga Nariyuki and Mika)". How will be the quality? HAKKENSHI! FIGHT FOR JUSTICE!! Casting of "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi" and "Garupan Captain Group as Hakkenshi" is be...

In this April, AI anime generating systems has been upgraded in PixAI. It's a bit expensive, but I tried to use it. I generated 3 animations, These are  "Hakkenden Series Renewal" "As Inuzuka Shino, Itou Makoto and Nishizumi Miho are striking each other with Murasamemaru" “Itou Makoto as Inuzuka Shino and Momonari Junta as Inukai Genpachi are striking each other in Horyukaku/Horyu Tower.” “Nishizumi Miho as Inuzuka Shino and Anchovy as Inukai Genpachi are striking each other in Horyukaku/Horyu Tower” Movement has become more dynamic than past system. And drawing hasn't collapsed so much. Improvement of AI system makes me surprising. And we can generate 15 seconds AI animations.

In PixAI, recently, new AI anime generating systems have been upgraded. I was flowed from it, I paid PixAI more. In this month, my billing has been likely to be over 20,000 yens. I tried to generate animations from "The duel of Horyukaku/Horyu Tower by Harem Protagonists" and "The duel of Horyukaku/Horyu Tower by Garupan Captain Group" , from this new AI anime generating system. Because there is nothing that I can show to men and women of all ages, except them. It seems that movement of animations is more dynamic. And movement of camera angle has also become more dynamic. And we can add voice into these animations. It's very useful! But hallucination is still remained, and this anime generation system often fails to generate anime. Well, we should wait and see.

Again, I requested Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)) an illustration. This time is, “As Inuta Kobungo, Fuyuzora Kogarashi and Kay are showing orbs of ‘悌(Tei/brotherhood)’.” Kogarashi and Kay: We’re Inuta Kobungo Yasuyori. We have orbs of Tei（悌）/brotherhood. Among Harem Protagonists and Garupan Captain Group, both Kogarashi and Kay look natural to fight by living body, not tanks, from my view. I want to watch their powerful action very well From my view, both Kogarashi and Kay mow down enemies by bold and audacious techniques. In next times, I requested an illustration of "Inusaka Keno pair (Yuuki Rito and Darjeeling)". How will be the quality? HAKKENSHI! FIGHT FOR JUSTICE!! Casting of  "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi"  and  "Garupan Captain Group as Hakkenshi"  is below. Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi 仁(Jin)/benevolent: Inue Shinbei: Kasugano Haruka(Yosuga No Sora): (CV: Shimono Hiro) 義(Gi/justice): Inukawa Sosuke: Manaka Junpei(Ichigo 100%...

By PixAI and DomoAI, I generated animations. This time is, "Itou Makoto and Garupan Captain Group has become lover, with adding voice." On second thoughts, this series makes me chuckling and very good. I have to thank that man. It seems their voices are different to original voices, but I have not to care about them. If time goes by, can we choose voice in AI animation?

Again, I requested Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)) an illustration. In this time, it's "As Inukai Genpachi, Momonari Junta and Anchovy are showing the orbs of ''Shin （信） /faith".   Junta and Anchovy: We’re Inukai Genpachi Nobumichi. We have the orbs of Shin （信） /faith.     It's drawn very well. And he didn't forget to illustrate peony-shaped birthmarks in their right cheeks. It's thankful!     In next times, I requested an illustration of "Inuta Kobungo pair (Fuyuzora Kogarashi and Kay)". How will be the quality?     HAKKENSHI! FIGHT FOR JUSTICE!! Casting of  "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi"  and  "Garupan Captain Group as Hakkenshi"  is below.

I requested that illustrator an illustration, "Momonari Junta and Anchovy, as Inukai Genpachi are showing orbs of `信(Shin/faith)`". And Inukai Genpachi in Nansou Satomi Hakkenden specializes in Torimono Juujutsu/arrest tactics with jitte. Recently, I think what is Torimono Juujutsu, and researched it in Youtube. According to this video, it was said that Torimono Juujutsu with jitte was generated in Kyoho Reforms in Edo periods. And Torimono Juujutsu seemed it was mixed with jitte tactics and judo to me. I had thought, that Torimono Juujutsu is like piercing-centered tactics like Makashi in Star Wars, who is mastered by Count Dooku. But it must be wrong. The hook part of jitte seems to it can catch Japanese Sword easily. But, jitte is 30-60cm and a bit short. I think jitte isn't practical if it's not a bit longer. I tried to imagine the battle style of "Momonari Junta and Anchovy as Inukai Genpachi". It would be like, "With using jitte, they do piercing-...

By Domo AI and PixAI, I made an animation. This time is,  “Itou Makoto in School Days and Kay in Girls Und Panzer are kissing as the lover.” This animation is made from an illustration of Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)). I have to thank him so much. Really, I love to stir up Garupan Ojisan(Garupan Fan) by using Makoto.

I also watched Girls Und Panzer Motto Love Love Projekt 2nd. But, Darjeeling's turns are too little. However, Darjeeling in Motto Love Love Project is a bit eccentric, such as loving Orange Pekoe too much. Personally, I think it was too bad. In this story too, there are some heartfelt short stories. I love Duck's Team's story most. They never lose their passion to volleyball. BC Freedom High School's story was also interesting. Marie and Oshida had become fat, so they had to lose own weight. That Andou was contributive to them, made me laugh. I also have obesity, so I have to be careful more.

Again, I requested Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)) an illustration. In this time, it's "As Inuyama Dosetsu, Ichijou Raku and Nishi Kinuyo are showing the orb of ''Chuu（忠）/loyalty". Raku and Kinuyo: We’re Inuyama Dosetsu Tadatomo. We have the orb of Chuu（忠）/loyalty. I prefer, Ichijou Raku and Nishi Kinuyo as Inuyama Dosetsu, most. Raku as Dosetsu who expresses aggressive and volititional. Kinuyo as Dosetsu who cotes flame and are the most beautiful in Dosetsu's world. Both of them impacted me strongly! In next times, I requested Mihoniumu--san illustration, of pairs of Inukai Genpachi (Momonari Junta and Anchovy). HAKKENSHI! FIGHT FOR JUSTICE!! Casting of  "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi"  and  "Garupan Captain Group as Hakkenshi"  is below. Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi 仁(Jin)/benevolent: Inue Shinbei: Kasugano Haruka(Yosuga No Sora): (CV: Shimono Hiro) 義(Gi/justice): Inukawa Sosuke: Manaka Junpei(Ichigo 100%): (CV: Suzum...

Again, by Domo AI and PixAI, I generated animations. This time is, "Itou Makoto and Darjeeling are kissing as the lover." They are very cute! In the snow, Itou Makoto and Darjeeling are kissing. In tea time, Itou Makoto and Darjeeling are kissing. In the bed, Itou Makoto and Darjeeling are kissing. These animations were made from illustrations by Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)). I have to thank to him. Really, I love to stir up Garupan Ojisan(Garupan Fan) by using Makoto.

Again, I requested Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)) an illustration. In this time, it's "As Inukawa Sosuke, Manaka Junpei and Nishizumi Maho are showing the orb of ''Gi（義）/justice". Junpei and Maho: We’re Inukawa Sosuke Yoshito. We have the orb of “Gi（義）/justice.” Now I think about it more, both Junpei and Maho are "the legend". Junpei is "the legend" of harem protagonists (perhaps also as the protagonist of Jump Comics) Maho is "the legend" of Senshado. However, why have I casted them as the plainest part of Hakkenshi/The Eight Dog Warriors? Even me, I don't understand. In next times, I requested Mihoniumu--san illustration, of pairs of Inuyama Dosetsu(Ichijou Raku and Nishi Kinuyo). How will be the quality? Casting of  "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi"  and  "Garupan Captain Group as Hakkenshi"  is below. Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi 仁(Jin)/benevolent: Inue Shinbei: Kasugano Haruka(Yosuga No...

Since long time, I've not used Image Generator (the former PixAI). So, until now, I've not known, that we can add sound and voice into animations made by Image Generator and V3.2. I think it's derived from Sora 2, but I'm very surprised! By Image Generator V 3.2, I generated an animation from "The Duel of Horyukaku（日本語：芳流閣）/Horyu Tower by Garupan Captain Group" , based on Nanso Satomi Hakkenden again. I've been very surprised for voice and sound added suitable to the illustration. But, as I think, it's difficult to actual Yoshioka Maya and Fuchigami Mai's voice, isn't it? Of course, I'll generate an animation "The Duel of Horyukaku/Horyu Tower by Harem Protagonists" . But it seems that it needs much time.
