Shibuya Video Game/ Anime Club Event



Last weekend, I was invited to attend a club event for Anime fans in Shibuya. It was at a small, hole-in-the-wall club in Shibuya, and it revolved around the music that goes into anime and video games. I'd never been to anything quite like it, so it was fascinating to attend. In attendance where a plethora of video game and a anime fans, as well as a few big names in sound track composition. The high light of the show was when the guy who wrote the soundtrack from the original Donkey Kong game came out, and hit the stage with his guitar. He actually had someone hook up their PSP to the massive monitor and sound system on stage and play the game Evangelion (which he also composed the soundtrack for) while he played his guitar along with it. Although is sounds kind of bizarre, it was actually really really cool to see. Homeboy was totally in the zone as he played and the fans of the game were going nuts over it. For myself, it was an introduction to a whole new world of entertainment. Great fun!
