Yesterday was the fantastic NieR Music Concert & Talk Live event in Roppongi. It was a perfect mix of music, interesting stories, and many new revelations about NieR:Automata.
My thoughts are rather scattered at the moment, but here’s a quick look at the show! I’ve just added a ton of the photos that I took, too! 😀
As we approach the 6th anniversary of the original NieR, at long last, the “NieR Music Concert & Talk Live” will be held this weekend on Saturday, April 16. Although music from the first NieR will be the main focus of the concert, we will get the first chance to hear the new theme song as well as additional information about the game and its story. New information will be discussed during the “Talk Corner”.
Information regarding the new information with Producer Yosuke Saito, Director Yoko Taro, Composer Okabe Keiichi, Character Designer Yoshida Akihiko, Game Designer Taura Takahisa will be reported on Famitsu.com at a later date. This is the portion of the interview that relates strictly to the concert.
Please look forward to the May 5th, 2016 issue of Famitsu, on sale April 21, for an 8-page spread on NieR: Automata detailing the additional information not included here.
There will be a new interview in the May 5, 2016 issue of Famitsu magazine (on sale April 21) detailing a ton more info regarding the up-coming music concert. A portion of this article has been published on their site online, which I will be translating soon.
They released the name of the non-Japanese vocalist in the new theme song as J’Nique Nicole or Nikki.
In preparation for the up-coming concert on Saturday, April 16, SQEX has just updated the NieR: Automata official Web site with a gorgeous song in English. http://www.jp.square-enix.com/nier-new/
How to view the concert online…
At first I wasn’t sure if those outside of Japan would be able to purchase Net Tickets to watch the NieR Music Concert and Talk Live event online due to the specific payment methods, but after a closer look and a semi-confirmation from Producer Yosuke Saito, I have changed my opinion.
Therefore, I’ve made these following images to help guide you through how to prep for the event! Please feel free to post your questions or comments here if there’s anything unclear with these images! <3
