Devil Blade Reboot - Sick shmup for sickos (im sickos) designed by Shigatake, who has many credits to his name. Holy shit this game plays fantastic though.

The Sorceress of Dragon Crown will always stand out as one of the best and most memorable fantasy character designs of all time. It would be nice if we could see this kind of approach return in more than just gacha games.

George Kamitani and Shigatake are wonderful inspiration sources.

the art for the revision is by shigatake, original game is ~60 hours, gaiden is ~20 hours
July 27, 2026 at 8:14 PM
it's funny since iirc the character portraits for Revision were done by shigatake of vanillaware/devil blade reboot fame.

Screw it. Back on my biggest bullshit possible.

As someone who adores THE KING OF DRAGONS and other 2D fantasy beat-em-ups, I can always come back to DRAGON'S CROWN PRO.

And for all the big booba silliness (which I also love), the art in this game is truly stunning.

Cantarella: Dominion of Qualia

DRPG with an absolutely stacked staff lineup including Himukai Yuji, ReDrop, and Shigatake on art, and Ito Kenji, Kikuta Hiroki, and Meguro Shoji on music. One that I'm genuinely desperate to get my hands on.

@patstaresat.bsky.social Hi Pat, just watched the podcast and wanted to mention that while the original Astlibra uses bought/free assets, the art in Astlibra Revision has been redrawn by Shigatake (of Vanillaware).
