In the boy & girl fashion design draft,Amiibo girlIt seems that there were various pattern drafts such as the colors of blazers and the pattern of skirts, as for the design of student clothing which can get when clearing the challenge of. Looking at the design proposal, inspiration is extinguished as often as inspiration, such as "I want a gear for sailor uniforms ..." and "How about gym uniforms and club uniforms in uniform uniforms?"


Illustrations of ink ring fitted with unimplemented gears such as "Fox faces" are also included. It is unique that the hairstyle of the boy is different from what is in the game, and it looks like a cat ear at first sight.


To the gear of "Armor Replica" you can get from Judge by rank-up fee seems to have been hanging as an accessory of the waist at the early stage as the setting lure "to catch the opposite sex".


Idol unit "Shio Collars" Aori & Firefly expression collection.


When I look at the pose that matches the decision of 'Squid, my best regards', I can see that the pose of hanging with a hand as a squid was consistently determined from the initial setting.


Schooclaz's costumes include a number of plans to become a base until they reach clothes suitable for idols, such as engineering-style tsunagi clothes from clothes like highly exposed cheerleads, and various patterns of hair accessories and pierced earrings It seems that it was considered.


In addition, rough sketches have been repeated many times until the character design itself of Shio Collars becomes shape too. It seems that the seaweed-like perm hair is inherited to Taco Zones of the octopus corps (octarian).


Although the initial setting of Atari-mima command is a hippie style and it is a technically-person-like appearance, it seems that it finally settled in the form of wearing a military hat and a medal as a "command".


Judge's bed is a 'cushion', but asleep in a cushion placed in the middle of a road, sleeping on a triangular cone, it is more freedom than in the actual game.


It seems there was also a plan to take a nap on the post.


In the setting material of Buki, there is an illustration of an unimplemented buki called "mystery setting material". Since Supra Toon has been newly added with new buki after release, this buki may be implemented someday.


In addition to the character design proposal, art materials of the battle stage are also listed. The octarian living Takotubo Valley seems to form a unique culture by combining waste of past civilizations such as traffic lights and materials of construction sites.


A bird's-eye view of the Negitro coal mine that can not be seen in the game ... ...


The slopes and steel parts etc arranged in the stage are being kneaded up, so it is precisely because of the detailed design so far, the "squid world" is built without any sense of incongruity in the actual game, making it easy to get immersive feeling You see that there is.


Unique fruits such as "Gesso Grape" "Squid Orange" "Squid" are devised as crops grown at Mosuku Farm. It is good to look around the greenhouse carefully and look for cultivated fruits during the game.


Gachiko's goal design, besides the design that is implemented in the game, is also a design with a sticky design plan or a giant sticker stuck.


Mato placed at the trial site behind the Bukit store has plans such as seaweed, bivalves, sea anemones and balloon balloons, and Mato that actually appears during the game is called "squid bunker" which imaged squid roasting It turns out that it was a name.


On the page of "Festival T design", besides the theme of festival held in Japan, "cat versus dog" and "rock-to-pop" etc, which were held in the United States and Europe are summarized.


The storyboard of the boss appearance movie of the hero mode is full of plenty 8 pages, and it is understood that "That scene was made like this!"


"Rough sketch" contains the rough picture of the ink ring, you can know the design which is the origin of the illustration of the beginning of the art book.
