DMM GAMES and the team led by Kodaka Tookyo GAMES latest work
SHUTEN ORDER Pre-Launch Gameplay First, please take a look at this. You can’t remember anything? Not even how you died? By the power of God, your life was extended. If you clear God’s trial, you’ll be revived as your old self with your memories intact. God’s trial… What should I do? Okay, allow me to teach you everything!
You need to make the criminal who killed you confess to the murder! This program features pre-launch gameplay of SHUTEN ORDER,
scheduled for release on September 5th. This is Mitsuki Saiga, who voices the protagonist, Rei. Please.
Yes, pleasure to be here. Today’s guest is Takada-san, who was in charge of music. I am Takada. I worked on music. Pleasure to be here. And Nakazawa-san and Kodaka-san will join us again. Pleasure to be here. As you saw in the trailer, SHUTEN ORDER begins with the protagonist being dead. From now on, let’s have Saiga-san search for the culprit to make the culprit who killed the protagonist, Rei, confess their sins. Yes. This is the third time, so the familiar scene has come again.
Use the power of God. Yes.
This time for sure, use the power. You’ve been hitting the mark so far, though.
That’s right, you’ve been hitting it. You’ve been hitting it, you’ve been hitting it. Now then. This time too, let’s choose a route among the Ministers.
We tried these two routes already. This one doesn’t look suspicious. Personally, I think he is cute.
Based on looks.
He looks cute. What should I do… So far, we have been choosing routes with men. This time, it’s about time for a woman.
I am going to choose this woman in a mini skirt. Yes. Here it goes.
Ministry of Education. An incredibly unique genre has appeared. A Romance Adventure.
It has a question mark, but is it a Romance Adventure? Amazing. Romance games are also part of the whole Adventure Game genre.
I see. We prepared various things.
Honoka Kokushikan. What a name. Conjurer of Words It’s not an ordinary Romance game.
Probably not. From what we can see. There’s no way a Romance Adventure game made by Tookyo Games would be an ordinary Romance game. The culprit Saiga-san chose is Honoka Kokushikan from the Ministry of Education, but let’s see what kind of route it is with some footage. Romance Adventure (?) After being poisoned by Honoka Kokushikan, Rei is led to a school and meets three girls. To unmask the real Honoka, increase each girl’s Affection and make a successful confession of love. This is Honoka Kokushikan’s route. Nakazawa-san, what kind of situation is this? When Rei went to interrogate Honoka Kokushikan, for some reason, Honoka Kokushikan fell in love with Rei at first sight. Oh my. It’s starting to look like a Romance Adventure.
She’s very starved for love, or rather, she’s in love with love. Honoka desperately wants Rei Shimobe to be in love too, so she forcibly injected poison. Rei will die from it by night. So if Rei wants to be saved, Rei has to seduce her and get the antidote. That’s ridiculous. We are not in love with her or anything though. Furthermore, Honoka Kokushikan admires the idea of falling in love at the school setting. She loves school romantic comedies. And she wants Rei to confess to her in that situation. So she tells Rei to chase her to school. So Rei Shimobe reluctantly comes to school. But there, for some reason, Rei meets three different girls with the same last name: Kokushikan. Rei meets three girls of different types.
Their faces are different, their first names are different, and their personalities are completely different. It seems that Honoka Kokushikan is disguising herself. Uh-huh. Rei tries to find the real one and seduce that girl. And that is the situation. By the way, it seems Honoka Kokushikan also took the same poison. So it is like “if you die, I’ll die too.” Why does it become like we’ll die together? But she says we’re destined for each other, so you’ll definitely seduce me, and we will be okay. You’ll definitely find me and tell me you love me. She is eagerly waiting for Rei now. So please do your best. Yes, let’s proceed. So right now it isn’t the real Honoka Kokushikan, but one of the three? Right. It is a girl named Mii Kokushikan. Rei is thinking she might be the real one and is trying to get to her. Rei is trying to see where she is now, and trying to choose where to go in the school. This is a common pattern in dating games. So, let’s try going to this classroom, we choose here and head there. There we go. Oh, there is someone we don’t know. Who? That’s a student, but as I said before, wearing masks is fashionable in Shuten, so that’s not a weird person or anything.
It’s the fashion. By the way, all the masks are designed by simadoriru, and there are different designs. So it would be fun to look for what kinds of masks there are. That’s right. You could be like “there was this one, there was that one”. Alright. Next, let’s try the empty classroom. Such light music.
That’s right, the music is unique too. The music is a bit different too. We arranged the bells into the music. Someone is here. Yes, yes. This girl is Mii-chan We found her. Honoka Kokushikan wears an eyepatch, mask, and something like earmuffs, The three girls wear something similar. The left one hides her eye, right girl hides her mouth with a mask, and another hides her ears. I see. It’s like dividing Honoka Kokushikan. See no evil, speak no evil, hear no evil. Eyes, ears, and mouth. I see.
Here, choices appear. That’s right.
We have to think which choice would make her happy.
Affection is important after all. It says, “Once more.” That means we’ve already confessed once?
That’s right. We confessed and got rejected. Mii is quite a calm type. Then we should probably start from becoming friends? Gently.
Don’t want to be too pushy. That’s right. She seems to like that. Kyun. Seems to be going well. She’s blushing a little. By the way, Rei got rejected when confessed last time, but it felt like she might like Rei. But she said she can’t date, so it’s also a mission to find out why she can’t date. I see. Each girl has some darkness in her heart. They each have some problems. And by solving them, you become closer to her. Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh. Solving those problems is also one of the means to become closer. I see. There are traumas and various things, and you remove them to become friends. She’s writing something. She’s kind of a literary girl. Rei thought she was writing a list of people to assassinate. Rei got it mixed up. We mustn’t forget, Rei Shimobe is looking for the culprit who killed them. That’s right. So when Rei is sensitive to “death”. That’s not it, Mii was writing poetry. The cultural festival is approaching, and she has to present a poem she wrote, but it isn’t going well. She’s working hard on it but keeps going, “No, that’s not right!” Oh. Again, choices. It really is a Romance Adventure game.
That’s right. Up to this point, we probably don’t know this girl that well. Ah, but it’s progressing smoothly. By the way, it’s a success. Good thing she didn’t tell me to “shut up”. This is The Founder. This is The Founder.
The Founder before being killed. This is their radio program. Ah, I see. Reading poetry. The Founder was reading poetry in the radio program. Mii was very moved by it. That made her want to write poetry, The Founder became the trigger for her to get into poetry. I see. Rei doesn’t remember at all though. But apparently that’s the story. The Founder of this country has a radio program? That’s right.
The Founder was everyone’s favorite. Everyone really loved The Founder. It’s like an idol. We don’t know which one is the real Honoka. She might be Honoka, but she didn’t seem to have this kind of personality. That’s right. We think we’re playing the Romance Adventure game, then suddenly reasoning begins. In normal Romance Adventures, both the protagonist and the player like the girl and really want to become close to her, but it is a bit complicated in this case. I see. Ah, this is how you beat it. That’s right, that’s right.
Here, we became a little closer again. Good. Love event cleared. If we fill up this gauge, we can confess love. We’ll have to keep getting closer until it gets filled up. You worked hard to accumulate 4 points.
Yes, it has accumulated. That means we can now confess. It is night time now. We made a promise to see each other in the classroom because we have something important to talk about. Yes. Whoa, what’s this battle-like thing? To confess love, we have to clear this part. We’ll resolve her worries in this conversation. If we choose wrong, we’ll make her angry, so let’s not make her angry. So it’s important to remember everything we’ve talked about so far
and choose appropriate options based on the information we have. I see. This is a tutorial, so there’s only one choice. Please choose until it reaches 0. It’s real-time, so it progresses automatically. This means we made it in time. If we stay silent, she’ll get angry, asking, “Why are you silent?” Ah, and the gauge goes up like that.
I see, I see. We are not talking about the poetry. Sometimes there might be choices where it’s better to stay silent.
There might be such cases. If we don’t know something, we should stay silent,
or we need to listen properly. Ah, I see, I see. Conversely, when the conversation goes in the wrong direction, we interrupt a bit, like, “No no, let’s get back to the topic.” There’s this kind of back-and-forth. Now it’s two choices. Which is the correct answer? This is difficult too. Now, which should I choose? She got angry. I completely made her angry. We made her angry. So we get scolded, and the rage gauge goes up. I see. But hints do appear like this. Quite difficult. This time it’s a choice to interrupt. Wow, it’s difficult. If we leave her alone, she’ll just keep blabbering about completely different things. Mii is now a bit confused and doesn’t know what she’s saying, so please say something to calm her down. Which one? The hint is that Rei said earlier that Mii seemed to notice something. Kyun. This one. Kyun point. What’s this border gate? This is a part we skipped. It’s a flashback scene. I see. They have been on a date in the past. They’re properly falling in love. That’s right. Rei also goes to festivals with the girls. Oh.
There are romantic elements too. It doesn’t end just within the academy.
They properly go on dates too. Sometimes we go outside.
I see. This person is always thinking about poetry. She’s kind of, well. She’s becoming negative. Ah. I see Maybe I should make her angry. Should I try making her angry?
On purpose. What happens if the gauge goes up? But we properly make corrections. That’s right. Even if we make her angry, the conversation continues. As long as it doesn’t fill up completely, it’s okay. We can proceed.
We don’t need to worry that much. Ah, that’s how it works. Ah, I see. Why? She can’t write. Correct.
Kyun.
It was kyun. I see, this girl was writing for herself, but it wasn’t poetry she was writing for a presentation. When it came time to present, she couldn’t write. It’s extremely like a romance game. It properly progresses through conversation. Properly solving her worries. “You’re not that kind of person.” “It’s okay.” We’re desperately trying to persuade her. Ah. Huh, we haven’t been there so we don’t know. This one, the bottom is correct. Such worries are okay, so please go out with me. Amazing. Ah, kyun happened.
Kyun happened, kyun happened. Hang in there, hang in there.
Hang in there, hang in there.
Let’s calm her down. I understand,
This girl gets agitated quickly.
She’s the type who gets flustered easily. This is a choice where we need to choose quickly. Ah, I see. We don’t have much time. She got scolded. I see, it’s a romance game so those elements are properly incorporated. We have to hold hands or do things like wall slam. I see. We mustn’t forget that. We mustn’t forget it’s a romance game. Talking it out isn’t better. The top one is correct. Someone sent a poetry collection. Conversely, if we watch the scenario properly, we can understand the correct answer. I see.
It was in the library. That’s right, that’s right. I see. I thought it would be a more confession-like situation, but it’s properly deep and logical
We’re attacking quite logically. It’s a solid conversation drama. Rei said, “Even if it’s a lie.” What should I do this time? Which is this? This is, well, as a hint,
Please leave it alone. Ah, I selected it. Get angry! On purpose? Rei is thinking, “That’s not it.”
Ah, but we are still barely there with the rage gauge. Quite dangerous.
But, but barely alive. One more time and it might be over.
Right. So, is this the same as earlier?
That’s right. Don’t choose either.
We have to stay silent. This is like an example of the silent choice. Here, Rei Shimobe is in a bit of a panic state, so we’re waiting for Rei to calm down. Both are incorrect choices. I bet everyone would definitely choose one.
This is tricky. That’s a trap. It’s time up, but she won’t get angry now, right? That’s right, she’s not angry. The choices changed.
I see.
Oh.
I see.
Here it comes. It’s finally here. Kyun happened. Look at her face. She liked Rei from the beginning, so once her worries were resolved, she had no reason to refuse. I see.
We desperately persuaded her, saying her worries are okay, she’s okay. I bet Rei doesn’t mean it. That inner voice is no good. Oh my, oh my, oh my. Oh, my! This is a problematic scene. Weren’t there two more people to date?
Is it okay? Ah. That’s what it is.
Confirm the identity, confirm the identity.
I see. There are various points we want to dig in. That’s right, from here on, we want everyone to play the game and experience the various results. This is three sisters, so there are two more. Right, so we’re wondering if it’s okay to reach the ending here and such. Who the real Honoka Kokushikan is: that’s the key to this Ministry of Education route. Saiga-san, how was it? From the previous time, and the time before that, all the gameplay elements are completely different. It was very exciting. I am sure everyone will have a good time playing this route. It’s totally fine to make her angry on purpose, and it’s also fine to enjoy playing on the edge like earlier. There seem to be various elements to play with. I think. I am curious about various things, like the flower bed ritual. Everyone, please look forward to SHUTEN ORDER, releasing on September 5th, 2025. From here we’d like to talk to the creators who made SHUTEN ORDER. Let me introduce our guests again. Takada-san, who was in charge of music. This is Takada. I worked on the sound. It’s great to be here.
I was mainly in charge of music this time. Implementation was done by developer Neilo-san this time, so I was able to concentrate on making music. Yes, we’ll ask Takada-san about the music that colors the story. First, let’s listen to some songs. The first one is the theme song called “End of the World.” I made it so that I could express the world of Shuten Order through music. I see. When I heard it, it felt somewhat heavy, and also had an ominous feeling. That’s right. For the introductory part, players get into this game without really understanding what it’s about. So I expressed the religious atmosphere in a relatively easy-to-understand way, When I thought about how to express the worldview of Shuten Order, since it’s about religion, what I thought before making it was, “If I make a mistake, it could be dangerous.” Ah, I see.
I thought about that a bit. For example, when it comes to religion, if it becomes indigenous, I think it would give a completely different impression of the worldview. So I tried not to make it indigenous. But at the same time, I also tried not to lean toward Catholic or other religious directions. That is how I tried to express Shuten Order through music. I see.
Yes. This one is called “O God, Grant Me a Miracle.” Since it’s when demonstrating the power of God, It’s somewhat different from humans, giving a heavenly atmosphere. Divine but also stylish, I leaned it toward the lighter side. How about the third one? “Shuten Order.” The melody goes “chan chan chan,” It’s not exact but “Shu-ten-kyo” or something like that. I scattered these three notes in various forms, and I put it out persistently many times, so that Shuten Order feels like it really exists. These are my thought processes. I see. What kind of content did you ask to compose? Yes. First, Kodaka asked me to be conscious of religiousness. After hearing the concept, I asked Takada-san to interpret religion in his own way to make the music. That’s how the order was given. So, Takada-san, you interpreted religion in your own way and composed the music based on that? That’s right. This time I was given many reference songs. And those reference songs were mainly the ones I had made in the past. I’ve made horror games, I’ve made romance games, I have experience with all 5 genres. When I heard those 5 patterns, I thought I could do all of them. So conversely, to make players feel the religion, Shuten Order, it would be better if one person made them all to unify the image. So in terms of workload, it might have been the most difficult among all the titles I’ve worked on. Of course it would be. I really had the exhaustion of making music for 5 games. Rather than the number of songs, each song had a high workload.
Like, I had to have multiple personalities. It was like, his scene needs another song. I was making a song for a romance game, but suddenly I had to make a horror song. Like, horror game in the morning and romance game in the afternoon. There are many exclusive songs. Since there are completely different systems and story tastes are different, there are many songs that only play in that route. I made them without knowing how many times the songs would play, so I spent about 3 days making a high-workload song. But it only plays once. Ah.
There are quite a few scenes like that. If you listen to each song carefully, you can understand various feelings to even deeper levels. To understand various feelings to even deeper levels, please buy and listen to what’s recorded in the digital soundtrack. The OST sampler videos are up on the YouTube channel and official website. Please check them out. Saiga-san, what was your impression of the music? I can really understand what you said about having unity, it connects somewhere. Even though they’re different songs, you mix in similar parts, So even though the routes are different, there’s something together. Unity is born for the listeners too. So even though there are 5 routes, it’s all one game called SHUTEN ORDER. I think it connects to that very much. It’s amazing. Thank you. Romance Adventure games and horror games are completely different genres. But somewhere you probably used the same sounds and the same textures, I think. That’s right. Probably, after playing, enjoying, after 10 years or so, if you just listen to the music, “Ah, I was in Shuten Order.” That memory awakens. Like smell, fragrance, suddenly memories come back, I made these songs hoping for that. By the way, Takada-san, among the five Ministers, who’s your favorite character? Ah, among the five people. Teko Ion, I guess.
Heh. Why is that? Smart characters are attractive after all. When you progress through the story, you’ll understand various things, but I liked how Teko’s story develops. I see. At first, he is unlikable. Too smart, thinks too fast, might feel a bit unpleasant. I don’t know how much I can say, but in the end, I came to like him. I see. People who will play from now on, please look forward to it. Thank you. Finally, Takada-san, could you give a message to viewers? Yes. I made lots of music this time too. I’d be happy if you listen to each song. Please support SHUTEN ORDER. Yes, thank you Takada-san. Now, from here we’ll go over product information about SHUTEN ORDER. First is this. The pre-order bonus is an original novel containing a prequel episode. It depicts the story of how Manji Fushicho became the Ministry of Security,
so please get it to learn more about the Shuten Order. It’s a limited quantity, so please hurry. Next is the Digital Deluxe Edition. In addition to the main software, it comes with a Visual Art Book and Mini Soundtrack. The Visual Art Book contains many unpublished visuals, including character concept art and background sketches. Featuring worldview illustrations to get to know more about the world of SHUTEN ORDER. The Mini Soundtrack contains 12 carefully selected tracks from the music used in the game. A disc where you can enjoy the worldview of SHUTEN ORDER. There’s also a Premium Edition. In addition to the main software, Visual Art Book, and Mini Soundtrack,
it comes with a snow globe celebrating Shuten’s National Foundation Day. Inside the dome are original illustrations of Rei Shimobe, Angel Himeru, and Angel Mikotoru, so please get it. This is also a limited quantity, so please hurry. About the Mini Soundtrack, could you tell us about the recorded songs and content? We selected 12 songs that you can enjoy listening to before even playing the game, and we also applied proper mastering specifically for the Mini Soundtrack. So when you listen through it, you can immerse yourself in the world of SHUTEN ORDER. While you’re walking around, does listening to the music make you feel like you’re in the Shuten Order? I don’t know if there is suitable weather, but it might be surprisingly good to listen to while walking. Feeling exotic, maybe. Thank you. Pre-orders are being accepted. Please order it now. That is all for the product information. So that’s all for today. The next show is planned for right before the release date, September 5th. And next time too, we’ll have Saiga-san play the game. I’m looking forward to it.
We will see you at the next show. Bye!
