Designing Mega Man 11's New Look
While visiting Capcom’s headquarters in Osaka, Game Informer sat down with Mega Man 11’s art director Yuji Ishihara to talk about his history within the company (on games like Mega Man Legends and Battle Network) and the giant task of updating…
The new design for Megaman is great imo. He did a great job.
This guy is my freaking inspiration, but not without mentioning GameFreak's own Ken Sugimori. The two have styles I've always felt looked so comfortable, and timeless.
It's great hearing Yuji reference Akira Toriyama as one of his inspirations, as I've always felt the original Mega Man art carried this sort of Toriyama-esque flavor. But really, Mega Man's always had that. It must be his eyes! XD
Simply amazing, it's good to have Megaman back.
plz after megaman 11 make megaman x9
What is that red Megaman Starforce figure!?!?!?
If this one is canceled I am going to be a very cancerous gamer for a very long time.
I was always more fan of the designs of the X Series, especially of X5's Haruki Suetsugu (Sensei) and the illustrations of Command Mission's Ryuji Higurashi, but I always found a certain "spirit" or "charm" to Ishihara's designs even before knowing the guy's name xD (especially for Battle Network ) and being a fan of Dragon Ball and knowing that this great artist was inspired by another great artist like Toriyama (whose designs are also very "charming" to me) makes me very happy (and adds another thing to my list of connections between my favorite Manga / Anime and my favorite video game franchise .), and I can't forget about Fujiko Fujio, who a lot of people like me would remember because of Doraemon, another charming series with charming designs. And, if the connections weren't enough, here in latin america Kid Goku's voice actress was Nobita's and Goku's seiyuu Masako Nozawa was the second voice of Doraemon, so yeah, this video is perfect xD I can't wait to see more of Ishihara, not only for MM11 but for future Megaman games. The franchise is not dead people, it is now more than ever that we must have hope and support these new products, who knows if, the next time the franchise dies, may be the last and by that moment it will be too late to give them our support.
We can see so much love and admiration in his expression and art, I'm in love with this new Mega Man.
Bye bye photoshop, welcome Clip Studio Paint
Definitely the best design for him yet!
Umm yall do know he didnt really add anything..-_-..besides like 2 lines and little calor around the neck..
hmm quick question does anybody know the name of ost that was playing in the background of the video?
I paused at 1:02 and thought "Holy shit he doesn't know how to count"
it would have looked better if he looked like Samurai Pizza Cats
They're showing all the hard work being put into this game, then probably going to trash it on release like they've done in the past. Can't wait…
I need those Starforce figurines.
What program is he using for drawing?
Some people saying its not hand drawn
Oh the nostalgia Its beautiful?????
Eventually they should do a remake of mm1 through 6
One cool dude.
They're just gonna trash Mega Man into the garage bin again soon after this game is released along with some other things Mega Man related
Sees he was inspired by Akira Toriyama
U instantly get an okay in my book!
I really wish i had the time to practice/learn to do something as iconic as these games
Im not that good at japanese but at 1:05 i hear coolness-7 cuteness-2 naiveness-1, not 6 3 1
I really really hope this is as good as we want it to be
If they make an actual Megaman x9 I want this guy working with Tatsuya Yoshikawa, I really loved the modern and cool characters design in x8
Megaman will always be my hero. I grew up with him, he is like my supporter, he teached me so much.
Megaman 4 life.
Welcome back my brother, welcome back(tears)
October can't come soon enough!
Cool
is like reboot has no more idea for mega man x series…
I Hope They Will Use Yuji Ishihara Design Of Mega Man Forever
It's the smash bros design they have!!!!
