Judges' Comments

The Maze of the Labyrinth, collecting allies and finding the one path through, really captures the charm of the Apocrypha's story. The art at the end really got me! This is excellent both as a game and as an art piece. (Hirasawa, Producer)

From the quest acceptance screen, you can feel the playfulness in this excellent piece. Gathering the cutely drawn allies and drawing the line through the maze was truly heartwarming. (Sato, Art)

These dear friends would come running anywhere, for Nona's sake. It warms my heart, being reminded of the Episodes' stories. Yakumo... you're willing to use your days off for the sake of a friend... you've grown! (Fujishiro, Scenario)

Judges' Comments

An entry from the Global Version, a super-powerful piece featuring 77 characters for the 7th Anniversary! And yet, looking at Guildna and Prai, there are little jokes snuck in everywhere. The quality is so high for everyone. (Koike, Global Producer)

Another Eden's designs are very involved and particular, so seeing them rendered with such skill and care in pixel art, of all things...! My hat is off to you. I'm so happy you've paid such close attention to all the details! (Yamamoto, Art)

Kumos got turned into a prize! These could almost be real products. It's delightful. You should definitely get in talks with KMS to get gacha machines set up in Dust City. What do you think, Yakumo? (Fujishiro, Scenario)

Producer's Comments

Not only is its quality as a freestanding product impressive, the ability to change out the art and turn it into any book you like is brilliant. The concept of the Astral Archive is that those just starting out their journeys can use it as a guide along their way, and those further along can enjoy it as a look back on the road they've taken. As a developer, seeing you put that into form makes me very happy. Thank you for feeling so strongly for this recent feature, and please accept the Producer's Prize with my compliments. (Hirasawa, Producer)

Producer's Comments

This is a wonderful piece that really captures Isuka's charm. Another Eden is welcoming its 7th anniversary, and we've welcomed many new friends along the way. However, you've reminded everyone that no matter how many years pass, Isuka is always excellent.Remembering the adventures you shared with dear friends, rereading those stories, and going back to the places that featured them...I believe that is one of the chief charms of Another Eden. This piece really captures that feeling, and so it's my honor to offer you the Producer's Prize! (Koike, Global Producer)

    Not only are Korobo and his surroundings so detailed, but the lighting, camera angle, and backgrounds are so carefully handled. These are quality photos! (Kawamura, Art)

    You can really feel the love for Korobo in the detailed sculpting and painting. The smoke effect also shows quite a lot of care. Keeping him in the case for display is a fine idea, but it seems like it would be fun to take pictures with him in other places too! Cute! (Sato, Art)

    To hear my song, which could be called the vocal theme song for the Lost Laboratory Mythos, being sung in English by a fan from the international community, makes me happy beyond words. Your singing voice is lovely and quite impactful, musically speaking. The live instrumentation also carries so much love. (Hayashi, Sound)

    It's a fascinating thing to hear a song that was composed in Japanese cross the language barrier as an English cover. To take the emotions expressed in the original song and express them so perfectly in a different language, especially with a melody originally intended for Japanese lyrics, is a very technically demanding feat. Thank you for rising to the challenge to show your love. (Yamagami, Sound)

    Celebrating the move to global simultaneous release, this fusion of Another Eden's world with traditional Japanese culture is very impressive. The appeal of these four cute mascot characters, and the carefully drawn seasonal flowers and trees detailed down to the smallest lines, really make me hope that everyone takes the time to appreciate this piece. (Koike, Global Producer)

    When I first saw this piece on my screen, I was already impressed by its quality. Then I realized that this was made with physical media, and the more I looked, the more I was taken by the beautiful and characterful flora and the cuteness of the mascots, down to their energetic poses. This piece must truly be priceless, and I would love to see it in person. (Ekusa, Art)

    This lively conversation between Eastern allies really shows your love for them. It's a distillation of the future they've won together, and the ending where their story continues even into that future is very Another Eden-like and resonant. (Scenario Team)

    Having made such a huge weapon at 1:1 size is already astounding enough. Seeing that the red blades actually spin on top of that... all I can say is, amazing. The piano playing also sounds good, and makes the whole thing more exciting! (Kawamura, Art)

    You really captured the core appeal of Minalca's weapon. It makes me want to give it a swing myself! An excellent build, that really drives home how no enemy would be left standing after being hit with this thing. (Hirasawa, Producer)

    As a fellow game developer, I can imagine how much hard work must have gone into this project. Not only is it playable, but Gunce's model and Another Eden's icons are faithfully recreated. I can feel the love overflowing. And Gunce is so cute running around! (Hirasawa, Producer)

    All I can say is, amazing. I put a lot of work into Gunce as the Part 3 sound director, so I'm happy to see her chosen as the protagonist of her own game, and it's a very fresh feeling to see this world in a way completely different from in Another Eden. (Inoue, Sound)

    From the very start with the fireworks, I was already getting goosebumps, and over the course of this look back, I found tears in my eyes. From the titles, to the characters and animals (and fish)... as a member of the development team, I can only feel blessed to receive something filled with so much love. I hope every player of Another Eden takes the time to watch this. (Ekusa, Art)

    Each character's expression, the way they change into Another Styles, the Sidekicks, and the way all the stories up until now are covered - it all brought tears to my eyes. (Fujishiro, Scenario)

    Your art, and the title, brought tears to my eyes...! As someone who watched Wryz grow into who she is today, I can only wish for these two to continue smiling together, and for a future filled with many wonderful things. (Sato, Art)

    Such a happy mother and child! Each is truly the only one for the other, and their familial bond really shines through here and makes me very happy. (Fujishiro, Scenario)

    Judges' Comments

    The idea of making a medley with each Apocrypha's main theme, and the Episode's "Tragic Horizon," is brilliant. It makes me emotional. Your playing is very skilled, and I think it must have been very hard to arrange everything so well for the piano. Tragic Horizon, especially, must have been very difficult. (Hayashi, Sound)

    We had several amazing chorus submissions, and I couldn't choose just one, so we have a double prize this time. They're quite good chorus projects on their own merits, and they make me realize once again just how much love our players have for Another Eden, which brings them all together in one place like this. Each has their own concept, and each participant pulls together to create some truly special art. (Hirasawa, Producer)
