Calme Column #5 “No. 5 “I love beautiful girls”

I’m almost out of ideas to write about. Hi, I’m Kio. Every time I see p19’s name, it reminds of Persona 5, and makes me want to play the game so badly. I want to play games, eat and sleep, and take trips, as much as I want to, as long as I want to.


By the way, I’m switching to a completely different topic, but let’s talk about Cullen now. There is a big difference between her and the other two characters we discussed.

So what’s different about Cullen? Her clothing? The way she talks? Her age? The answer is no. Among these three girls, Cullen is the only character that was created after the plot was already written. Initially, the heroines Lucia and Aisia were born from an illustration p19 drew, as I mentioned before. However, it is impossible to create the whole story with two girls, and that is why we created Cullen.

Cullen is an older sister-like character who is mean to Leon sometimes, but on the other hand, she cares about everyone deeply. I’m pretty sure that those of you who have played it through probably felt that. She also does various investigations and surveillance. If we can get an opportunity to create another story, it will gradually reveal more about her.

She was an unfamiliar kind of character for p19 to draw, so the character design took a little longer than usual. However, once it became solid, she was able to make Cullen move a lot in fun and interesting ways. You can say the same thing is true of the scenario for her. All of her scenes have high energy, and have big movements in the story. I don’t know if there is going to be a sequel, but if there is one, you can expect her to shine.

Now, here we go: the recurring the topic of food. I think the biggest difference in food between Japan and America is the way you eat meat. While marbled, fatty meat is popular in Japan, in the United States, lean cuts seem the standard. For instance, when I ordered steaks in the U.S., they were usually huge, and a lean cut. I was hesitant at first, but now lean steaks are my favorite kind of cut.

I mostly ordered steaks since I thought that’s a thing you do when you go to the United States, so I don’t really know what kind of characteristics American patties have. I mean, I have had them in burgers, but not by itself. So if I happen to get another chance to visit the United States, that will be on my to-do list. My favorite kind of patty is the ones that Bikkuri Donkey serves. I don’t know where their patties originate from…… Anyway, I hope I can find one that defeats Bikkuri Donkey patty in the United States.

Now, as I said in the beginning, I’m out of topics to talk about. So I have decided to take a break from the KARAKARA column for now. Thank you so much for reading KARAKARA columns, and I would be very, very happy if you play KARAKARA.

I don’t know if there will be future entries, but if there are, I will greet you here.

Otherwise, I hope to see you again somewhere. Thank you!
