This time, based on comments from Producer Funakoshi Yuko, Director Miyahara Naoki, and CG Director Nakazawa Daiki, we will focus on the new attempts of the “PreCure” movie as it enters its 21st year!
The book reveals behind-the-scenes stories about the work, such as how the setting was changed using hand-drawn animation and CG, how it is set in the world of games – a setting that hasn’t appeared much in PreCure – and how it makes full use of CG to create a dynamic look.
In this latest film, Komugi, Iroha, Yuki, Mayu, Daifuku, and Satoru get together to play the popular game Doki Doki♡Tanukingdom! Everyone starts the game together! But it seems they’ve been sucked into the game’s world, where there’s a suspicious tanuki. What’s more, Komugi gets separated from Iroha and the others! In order to meet her beloved Iroha, Komugi decides to take on various game challenges! “Sky Wide! PreCure” and “Maho Girls PreCure!” will also be joining the fray.
Last year marked the 20th anniversary of the “PreCure” series, and “Wonderful PreCure!” was a commemorative work that marked the start of a new future. Producer Funakoshi Yuko recalls her feelings at the time, saying, “Even as we were making a new start in the 21st year, the main theme (for the “Wonderful PreCure!” movie) was ‘Let’s try something new!’ from the very beginning of the planning. “
Apparently, the project was developed with the theme of a “new challenge” not seen in previous “PreCure” series in mind, explaining, ” As the story progressed, I thought I’d try the challenge of developing the story while changing the setting using hand-drawn animation and CGI .”
With this goal in mind, he teamed up with director Naoki Miyahara, who has a wealth of experience in CG and animation, and he also revealed the story behind the birth of the setting, saying, “As we discussed what kind of setting and setting we should use, we decided to use CG to depict the ‘world within the game,’ which hasn’t been depicted much even in PreCure.”
Director Miyahara Naoki revealed that he put a lot of effort into the game settings that appear in the film .
In developing the story around the game, the game is also sprinkled with careful attention to detail in the rules while keeping in mind the player’s perspective. In particular, the behind-the-scenes of the “dancing ball toss” scene is revealed as follows:
” When we created the scene in Dancing Ball Toss where the camera seems to follow Komugi and Yuki as they run around while other players throw balls at them, we were scolded by the technical team, who said, ‘In the previous productions, we had so much trouble even throwing one ball!’ (laughs) But everyone was having fun making this. Only CG can make this kind of visual expression. ” (Director Miyahara)
Komugi, Yuki, and the Pretty Cures struggle on the stage of the “game world,” sometimes running, jumping, and dancing.
From the director’s words revealing his particular concerns, expectations are building for the dynamic characters’ exploits and great adventures, and CG director Nakazawa Taiki also expressed confidence, saying, ” I think that the cutely deformed and charming character designs, the well-crafted overall game design and backgrounds, and the space of the game world itself all come together beautifully .”
He added, ” If you look at the finer details, there are characters who are not directly involved in the progression of the story who participate in the game, and there are scenes where a large number of raccoons appear.The animators have had a sense of playfulness in the way they create various movements and poses, so if you can look closely at every corner of the screen, you may be able to enjoy it in a different way .”
