SCRAP has planned and produced a number of Real Escape Games, attracting over 9.4 million attendees worldwide. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Ace Attorney series, The Grand London Murder Case escape game will be returning to venues in Tokyo and Nagoya for a limited time starting July 29, 2022.

The Grand London Murder Case is an interactive event incorporating elements of deduction, in which guests must solve the case and prove the defendant not guilty. Held in 32 cities across Japan in 2015, it became extremely popular.

Gameplay Example

The story begins when protagonist Ryunosuke Naruhodo becomes a suspect in a murder case. The players in this event are given the role of lawyers tasked with proving Naruhodo’s innocence. To do this, they must examine the testimony and available evidence to find inconsistencies and examine parts of the venue where the crime took place.

The in-game film was created by the Ace Attorney development team exclusively for the event. It will be fully voiced by Ryunosuke Naruhodo (Hiro Shimono) and heroine Susato Mikotoba (Kana Hanazawa), along with other popular members of the cast.

The Ace Attorney series is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a number of exciting events. Keep an eye out for more!

Tomohisa Yamashita will make his first appearance on the cover of the May issue of Numero Tokyo, on sale on March 28, 2022. Yamashita will appear in a special insert as well, which includes 24 pages exploring the singer’s appeal.

Tomohisa Yamashita, known to many as Yamapi or Tomo, is a singer, actor, and television host. Recently, he starred in the film The Man from Toronto and the TV series Drops of God. He is also an ambassador for the Dior beauty brand.

“I’ve been extremely busy for the past year and a half, but I had made up my mind. I wanted to keep going for at least two years, or until I collapsed from exhaustion. I was in France for four months and was so incredibly homesick. I cooked for myself overseas, and that single rice cooker was my savior. I lost myself while I was cooking. I love it.”

In the magazine interview, Yamashita talks about his busy life as an independent artist and his work in Japan and abroad. He also expresses his gratitude and love towards his fans. “There are very few people I can really open up to, but the fans have always been on my side. They’re an amazing source of free love. They feel like my family.” 

The magazine also features a fantastic photoshoot of Yamashita surrounded by flowers. The set was created by world-renowned floral artist Makoto Azuma, and was inspired by the Dior fragrance.

Tomohisa Yamashita Comment

“The world of flowers created by Makoto Azuma is beautiful, dynamic and wild. I was so thrilled and honored to work with him. Through my work as an ambassador, I’ve really learned that fragrance is linked to memory.”

Makoto Azuma Comment

“By combining Dior’s worldview with Yamashita’s, I created a work that is not only beautiful but also has a more wild and rugged feel. Mr. Yamashita gives the impression of a samurai to me. His aura is just as powerful as the flowers.”

As part of its efforts to create an even more sustainable future for luxury, Bulgari has launched a new Men’s Leather Goods Collection. The campaign for this collection features  actor and artist Tomohisa Yamashita, an ambassador for the company.

Comment from Tomohisa Yamashita

“The concept for this shoot was ‘a style that Tomohisa Yamashita would wear in his daily life,’ so it was a really easy day of filming. Honestly, some of the backpacks look a lot like the ones I typically use, which gave me a serious case of déjà vu. I got really attached to them. (laughs) I tend to gravitate towards monotone pieces for my everyday look, but the bright new colors actually complement that very well. Sustainability also means a lot to me, so taking part in this was a real privilege. I’ve heard the saying “good shoes will take you to the right place,” and I think the same can be said for a good bag. As I carry around a single bag, I think about what city I’ll be traveling to next. I hope that a Bulgari bag will accompany you to your dream locale.”

This eco-friendly collection brings together high-quality pieces and iconic designs while minimizing any negative impact on our world. Be sure to give it a look!
