Just a little update from us, hope everyone's ready for the upcoming Community Day weekend! I've been hard at work editing the JR Kyushu video which I was hoping would be out by now, but it has become, without exaggeration, the biggest video project of my life in terms of the editing. I attached a screenshot of the timeline. Each little rectangle slice is a video cut, image, or audio; all tiny pieces that together make up the entire video. It just keeps getting crazier and crazier with more layers as it goes on... If you're a fan of long videos, this one is for you, as it will be our longest one yet!
That trip around Kyushu really meant a lot to us. I've been going all out this time on special effects, animations, and sound design not only to make the best video possible for you, the viewer, but also to have something we will be able to watch years from now to re-experience the event like we did the first time (it was also just a massive collab with tons of small details we wanted to thoroughly document). We are trying to market this video to the general Pikmin fanbase opposed to only Pikmin Bloom players, so with any luck we will get a few more views than normal for all the extra effort :)
But be warned! There are some spoilers for our upcoming JR Kyushu video which will hopefully be published mid to late August.
Until then, I'll go back to endlessly editing...........................AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
(It took me 2 weeks just to organize all the footage for this one, and I've been actively editing it since finishing the Seoul Tour video, so yes, I have officially gone insane)

ちょっとした近況報告です。みなさん、週末のコミュニティ・デイに向けて準備はできていますか？
僕は今、JR九州の動画の編集に没頭しています。本当はもう公開したかったんですが、誇張抜きで、編集面ではこれまでで一番大きな動画プロジェクトになっています。タイムラインのスクリーンショットを添付しました。小さな四角いスライス一つひとつが、動画のカットや画像、音声などで、全部合わせて動画を構成しています。どんどんレイヤーが増えて、どんどんカオスになっていってます……。
長い動画が好きな人にはぴったりかもしれません。というのも、過去最長の動画になる予定です！
九州をめぐる旅は、僕たちにとって本当に大切な体験でした。今回は視聴者のみなさんに最高の動画を届けたいという思いと、数年後にまたこの旅を追体験できるようにという気持ちで、特別効果、アニメーション、音響デザインにも全力を注いでいます（それに、細かい部分までしっかり記録しておきたかった大型コラボ企画でもありました）。
この動画は『ピクミンブルーム』プレイヤーだけでなく、ピクミン全体のファン層に向けてアプローチしていく予定なので、いつもより多くの人に観てもらえるといいなと思っています。追加の努力が報われますように :)
それからもう一つご報告を。僕が初めて執筆した記事が「Pikmin Informer」で公開されました！こちらから読めます：
www.pikmininformer.com/post/the-secret-pikmin-stat…
ただしご注意ください！ この記事には、これから公開予定のJR九州動画のネタバレが一部含まれています。動画は8月中旬から下旬ごろの公開を目指しています。
それまでは……編集地獄に戻ります………………アアアアアアアアアアアアア！！！
（ちなみに、この動画の素材を整理するだけで2週間かかり、ソウルツアー動画を仕上げた後からずっと編集し続けています。つまり、もう完全に正気を失いました。）
