The winners of the 22nd Japanese Culture Department’s media art festival were announced recently. They were created by Miyagawa and Hiroshi Ito. In 2018, the theme of the two-season animation was released. The original comic book of “Space Battleship Tiramis” won the comic unit. Excellence Award
The Japanese Culture Department Media Art Festival is an awards and exhibition held by the Japanese Government Cultural Department since 1997. It is divided into four units of art, entertainment, animation and comics to stimulate and promote media art in Japan and around the world. Creation and development is a supreme honor for the Japanese entrepreneurial community
“Space Battleship Tiramis” incorporates a lot of nonsense funny elements in the delicate and delicate hard-core mech setting, and brings out the hilarious plot with infinite positive performance. This contrast makes people hooked and created. The judges of the media art festival of the Japanese Culture Department also made a high evaluation of the unique and funny SF works
Award-winning reviews.
The specialty of the comics, first of all, is to sneak into the squad and spoof. Compared with the highest human feelings of “laughing”, “tears”, “lyrics” and “art” are ranked second. Just as the source of “humor” comes from “human”, it is a testimony of human beings, and it is also the privilege of being human.
Ok, turn to the topic – the judges who screened the “touching works” every day, in the “stupid battleship Tiramis” stupid children can not help but retreat, and invariably scored high marks, This just shows that the degree of fun of this work is beyond doubt. Anything that squanders “super-powerful paintings” like this to extravagantly depict “silly comics” is unprecedented. After reading this book, I will go to see the works such as “Gundam”, “Dahe” and “EVA”. I don’t know why I want to laugh when I look at it. This kind of “sufficiency to change the values” is the horror of “funny comics”. Let’s go. (MINAMOTO Taro).
Summary of works.
The Cosmic Calendar 0156, the confrontation between the Earth’s federal government and the cosmic immigrants became more intense. In order to open the battle, the Earth Federation sent the most sophisticated spacecraft “Tiramis” to the battlefield. Tiramis’s young ace driver is called Subaru I. He looks handsome and has excellent grades. However, he is actually difficult to integrate into the collective life of the Tiramis, and he shuts himself up on a dedicated machine. “The nest in the cockpit.” Facing the companions of the gas field, Subaru quickly fled the canteen, and one ran back to the cockpit to eat the fried skewers, but accidentally spread the noodle and cabbage to the space without gravity… The young man kept repeating the same mistakes. There have been a lot of strange actions. This work is a comedy, more than the war between the Earth Federation and the cosmic immigrants, more about how Subaru guards the sky that belongs to him. This work has made a very detailed depiction of the cockpit, the Tiramis inboard equipment and other mobile weapons. The mechanical style is strong, just like the SF works of the eight classics, but the daily performances of the modern Japanese society are all the most vivid. Intriguing. In 2018, this work was adapted from TVON to GONZO, and a stage play was launched to show the above contrasts in different forms, bringing endless jokes to the audience
