The staff explained that the program will be similar to radio.

In addition, NTV emcee Hisanori Yoshida will voice a wolf version of himself. During the program, the two voice actresses will try to think up lyrics for a new song. As the program is live, they will even accept suggestions for lyrics from Twitter and email submissions.


It sounds like one of those live entertainment talk show type programs. Personally I'm more interested in how the CG will look, and the technology behind it. It would be nice to have some behind-the-scenes footage with how MMD and motion capture is used.

I actually went to the stage event, so I got to see the "first episode." Basically, there's a script of what the voice actresses basically say, but they come out of character so often it really does just turn into a radio show. The one time we were introduced to the motion capture technology, the emcee kept on accidentally removing the USB plug, so his character would constantly freeze in strange positions. I know this probably won't be a problem during the actual show, but it was pretty funny (he stopped one time in a limbo pose).

This show would be almost impossible to subtitle, unfortunately. The voice actresses constantly talk over each other an interject, so it's not really a set script except in some places.

Hope that gives you a little bit of a preview!
