Tetris Blast Showdown and Animes

The KiShin World Championship kicked off with the Tetris Blast Showdown competition. Notable participants included Anya from Moscow, Kai from the USA, and Akira from Japan.

Among the eight contestants in the Tetris Blast Showdown, the spotlight shone on the top players—Anya, Kai, and Akira. As the competition unfolded, the remaining five participants struggled against the prowess of these skilled gamers.

Akira, hailing from Japan, demonstrated intense focus, strategically stacking tetriminos and executing impressive combos to gain an edge over the competition.

While the commentator exclaimed, "Anya's constructing a tetrimino skyscraper! Can she maintain control?" Akira remained unfazed, determined not to let the awe-inducing commentary distract him from his gameplay.

After a while, the commentator exclaimed once again, "Kai's immersed in a game of his own, with blocks defying gravity as they disappear and reappear!"

Anya, Kai, and Akira played with an intensity that seemed life-or-death, leaving the other five players trailing in their wake.

"Oh? What's Sir Bob up to? Did he truly come here to compete?" the commentator questioned as the focus shifted to a nonchalant man playing Tetris Blast.

"Stupid commentator..." Bob muttered, unfazed, realizing he was up against three formidable opponents.

"Akira's on a rampage! Lines vanish faster than a ninja in the night!" the commentator exclaimed, capturing the Tetris Blast competition's escalating intensity.

The scene shifted to Akira rapidly executing combos on the Tetris game screen. Anya and Kai, reacting to the commentator's remarks, swiftly followed suit.

With every cleared line, combo, or near-miss, the stands erupted in gasps and thunderous roars. The Oakland Coliseum pulsed with the rhythmic heartbeat of the game, uniting the audience in a shared passion for Tetris.

"Fortunately, I joined you all here to witness the competition in person! It's genuinely exciting to observe the competitors up close!" a young man in the audience remarked to his friends.

"Absolutely!"

"I told you it would be more enjoyable to experience the tournament firsthand!"

"Absolutely! It's like watching wrestling, but with video games, hehe..."

The young man nodded in agreement. Along with the audience, he could feel the hype and excitement, and personally watching the competitors' expressions on the LED screen made it even more worthwhile.

In Shinro Suzuki's household.

Shin, watching the KiShin World Championship on a cable channel with Mira, remarked, "Even just the casual Tetris Blast Showdown is already exciting. I wonder how thrilling the main events will be..."

"Hmm," Mira nodded, then turned to Shin, "I've noticed you've been quite busy lately, and I hear you're heading to the KiShin subsidiaries' animation studios. I wonder what you're planning." She asked, clinging to Shin.

Shin smiled, replying, "You know, I've been occupied with an anime project that will gain popularity among female audiences. It revolves around female protagonists."

"An anime project for females?" Mira appeared quite surprised. She continued, "Wait, didn't I bring you the report about the anime fan base? Most of the base is male, and female-oriented anime lacks sufficient support. Yet, you're creating an anime for females?"

Mira found it truly astonishing, considering the existing lack of support for animes targeted at females.

It was evident that animes aimed at a female audience had been unprofitable, leaving Mira perplexed about Shin's decision to produce one.

Shin just smiled, drawing closer to Mira, and said, "Hehe, don't worry. This anime project I have in mind will be profitable enough..."

Mira, with furrowed brows, questioned, "Profitable?" She paused and continued, "Why do you personally need to lead an anime project? Considering our company already holds IPs of the most famous and successful anime franchises produced in the early days of our business, why embark on another anime project yourself?" After a moment, she added, "With the growth of our KiShin companies, aren't there other businesses that require our attention?"

Shin, in response, shook his head and said, "You're right. We have a portfolio of successful anime franchises, and with One Piece animation already underway, we've established a solid foundation in the anime industry. However..." He paused, locking eyes with Mira, and continued, "While I should be focusing on other business aspects, this anime project our studios will produce is special to me. I want the world to experience the unique feeling of watching the anime I have in mind."

When Mira heard that, she couldn't help but smile, saying, "Oh? Is it akin to anime like Pokémon, Dragon Ball, Yu-Gi-Oh, and EarthBound?"

"Trust me, it's different. I'm sure you'll like it," Shin replied with a smile.

"Oh, I can't wait," Mira said, smiling as she snuggled her face against Shin.

In a certain high school, a group of friends discussed.

"I can't wait for the One Piece anime! It was just announced that it will soon air on TV Asahi!"

"Yeah, I've been eagerly anticipating this! Besides Dragon Ball, Naruto, and the new manga called Slum Dunk, One Piece is one of my favorites!"

"It's being made by KiShin, so I'm not worried about the animation being bad, haha."

"That's true..."

At this moment, most anime fans were closely following the upcoming release of the One Piece anime.

One Piece was gaining more fans not only in Japan but also in the United States and other parts of the world.

This was due to KiShin Bookstore being the distributor for mangas like Dragon Ball, Naruto, and One Piece outside Japan. With Amazon gaining attention, these mangas became bestsellers on the site, and besides Dragon Ball, One Piece manga was one of the top sellers.

With its comical art style, captivating story, and a mix of comedic elements, it provided entertaining content for people around the world.
