Howdy y’all,

You’ve all seen and heard about the protagonist Neku, but what about the main antagonist? Meet the maths-crazy villain Sho Minamimoto!

But first, a little background (who doesn’t love a little background?).
At 18 (18!? He looks about twenty!), Sho is the youngest Game Master of the Reapers in Shibuya.  Sho excels in all areas but one – cooperation. More of a mathematician than a battler, he can’t help but put in a mathematical term in every conversation he comes across to the point of obsession and perhaps mental instability.
But how can you not love him? Many a fan of TWEWY say that Sho Minamimoto was their favourite character and can’t help but quote him. The most famous quote being “So zetta slow” which is repeated several times in the game.

And here is a trivia fact (who doesn’t love a bit of trivia?):
Sho was dubbed “Pi-Face” by Neku and Beat and is called that on several occasions. Fittingly enough, Sho’s HP in his regular form is 3141 (the first four digits of Pi), and his Week Three form has 5926 HP (the next four digits of Pi). Sho is also called the “Grim Heaper” by Neku due to the garbage piles he builds during Week Two and the fact that he is a reaper.

Well, how about that? If you go here you can find plenty more on everyone’s favourite mathematician. Man, Sho makes maths fun.

Howdy y’all,

Ever heard of the game ‘The World Ends with You’ (or TWEWY for short)? Yes? No? Maybe so? Even if you have/haven’t, I shall explain this fantastic game to you (I might even do a review – I say that a lot, don’t I?)

*Clears throat excessively*
The World Ends with You, known in Japan as It’s a Wonderful World (すばらしきこのせかい, Subarashiki Kono Sekai) is an action role-playing game set in the shopping district of Shibuya, Tokyo.
As you start the game, after a little intro on the main character Neku Sakuraba, you are plunked straight into the game (no annoying intros here). You soon meet Shiki (the kinda love interest) and discover a bit about where you are and why you are there.
The World Ends with You integrates Japanese youth culture such as fashion, food and mobile phones in a creative way. Some examples are ‘missions’ you have to complete, and battle advantages.

There’s even a manga adaption! Wowza…

I won’t go into much detail (as I am planning to do a review – yes, I will get a round tuit)

Ha ha. I can never get enough of this joke. My dad has one in the garage and everytime I go in there, I always read it. So funny 😀

Anyway, now that you have the background info here is my drawing of Neku!
