Mel Kishida singing the opening for Atelier Online is a thing

Excuse me while I lie down in a dark room and furiously fan my face with my hand. It’s Mel Kishida! Mel Kishida singing the opening theme for Atelier Online. You know who Mel Kishida is right? He’s is the character designer for the Apprentice of Arland Atelier trilogy.

He’s also my Number One favourite artist, recently doing fine work on Blue Reflection and also responsible for lovely work like this…

With out labouring the point too much – I love him. I’m not biologically configured to be able to have his babies, but honestly? If he asked me? I would totally try my level best to deliver.

Anyway, the point of all this is that, not only is he an obscenely talented artist, but Mel Kishida singing the opening for Atelier Online is also surprisingly good. Listen!

Not bad, huh?

If you need a mental image to close out this news piece. Later this evening I will put this on loop, recline on my patio, bathed in the dying sunlight, while I sip on a glass of red wine. I’ve also got some Macaroons in the cupboard, so maybe I’ll treat myself and have one of those too.

Mel Kishida singing, eh? What a time to be alive.

I love Japanese games

I run the 'I Love Japanese Games' facebook page - unsurprisingly, I love Japanese Games, which is how I ended up contributing to Rice Digital. I love doujin games, but expect me to write about all aspects of the Japanese games industry - from JRPGs, to Visual Novels, shooters - anything that interests me, basically. I've been told to tell you that my 'views are not necessarily those held by Rice Digital or it's partners'.
