A 4-panel comic in collaboration with author @tare_nu is now public!

Come check out the story of the Holy War Crusaders 👀

Hello, this is 'Al-Game-Haja' where we understand the story and play the game.

I made a cartoon-style video using the Heidemarie event story, 'Shadow Under the Willow Tree'.

Actually, I tried to make it with the currently popular AI animation.

It's a cowardly excuse, but it was just too expensive...

Cheaper models have too many errors everywhere...

It writes scenarios as it pleases, lacks consistency... I just wasted money and   it was a complete failure. ㅠ.

I'll try again when I make a lot of money later..ㅠ

Anyway, I discarded everything, remade it, and discarded it again  , repeating it about 3 times, and it took 4days to make just one episode. ㅠㅠ 

But since I've set the direction, I think I can make the remaining parts 2, 3, and 4 quickly!

I filled the dubbing with AI voices,

The reason I couldn't do Korean dubbing is because the acting was too bad, so I substituted it with Japanese. (The Japanese acting is also bad...)

I asked GPT to translate it into Japanese, so there are many 부족한부분 (lacking parts).ㅠ

I would be grateful if you could watch it generously!!
