On the day of Ba Yueliang's 18th birthday, he witnessed his father Ba Yue Yan die in front of him.
A martial arts master from China, The Blue Emperor, pressed Ba Yueyan about the whereabouts of the "mirror", but Ba Yueyan did not tell him and was killed. The sudden death of his father, the mysterious mirror "Dragon Mirror", "Phoenix Mirror", these mysteries need to be cooled to find the answer.
This was the beginning of the story of the game "Shenmue", which was created by producer Yu suzuki, and the first work in the series was released in 1999 as an action-adventure game.
Because of its high degree of interactivity and freedom, a new game mode of Full Reactive Eyes Entertainment was pioneered at the time, a concept that was a pioneer in the now common "open world" form of work.
How powerful was Shenmue at the time?
From the picture alone, its expressiveness is far more than the game of the same period, the sky light effect changes during the day and night, rain and snow and other weather, and NPCs will also have umbrella action because of the weather, fluctuating waves will be because someone passes by the seagulls flying away, etc., and a large number of real-time calculus movie cutscenes.
All of this impressed the player, and even though the character modeling at the time seemed a bit rough now, the game's cinematic experience was pretty good.
"Shenmue" is also going to launch an animated version, the animation has a total of 13 episodes, has released the trailer of the animation, the trailer screen is good, the trailer clip is the beginning of the game plot part and some cool fight scenes, intermittent insertion of key props in the game two mirrors and other elements.
The trailer is available in both Japanese and English, with Japanese voice actors Masakatsu Matsufumi and Ryo Bazuki, and Takahiro Sakurai dubbing the Blue Emperor. The animation is co-produced by Crunchyroll and Advanced Swim and airs on February 6, 2022.
The voice acting of the animated version uses the voice actor lineup in the game, coupled with the completely different animation screens from the game, this work should bring a new viewing experience to the audience and previous players.
