Haruhi is watching you!
Apparently it’s a sample of some content that Bandai is planning for Suzumiya Haruhi no Yakusoku’s (the PSP game) homepage. It’s hard to do nice-looking cel-shaded 3D models and I think this one is pretty damn good. It uses MotionPortrait technology from a company by the same name. (I guess they don’t do much else.)

I found the demo very interesting. How long before 3d can do 2d about right, I wonder?

Oh. My. F—ing. God.
That looks really, REALLY good.

Very well done indeed!
In other Haruhi & videogames news, have you seen that figure: http://www.figma.jp/products/yusha_haruhi.html ? Almost makes you want to buy the PS2 game for that alone…

Very addicting…I could look into those big brown eyes all day long. n_n;

It’s scary. Haruhi’s too serene. She’s thinking something up. God help us.

Pretty neat stuff. They turn ‘AI’ on when your cursor is beyond range of the screen. You can make her look sleepy by moving the cursor to her chest. >.

BTW, small window (with working とじる button) can be found under the SOS tab in the official website. Two more faces are to be released…

September 14th, 2007 at 9:13 pm
On another note, I did buy the PS2 game. :P

Oh crap. Good thing I have my still-reliable PS2 with me (wasn’t all that hyped about the PS3 available here already, yet).
Now I have to wait for those importers… :P
