A reunion of former members of Sonic Team in Tokyo!
According to Naka-san, one of the 7 members who created the first Sonic the Hedgehog game, sound creator Hiroshi Kubota-san (credited as JIMITA), is now a jazz pianist. 5 of the initial members could gather for a reunion after 28 years, listening to his band's performance and having dinner together.
Naka-san and Ohshima-san posted their pictures from the jazz concert and dinner afterwards. It's heartwarming to see them meet up after decades!

ソニック1の制作メンバーは7人いるのですが、その内の久保田君がジャズピアニストになって活躍されているので、ソニック1のメンバーで集まって吉祥寺でジャズライブを聴いてから飲みました。久保田君に会うのはソニック1の打ち上げ以来なので28年ぶりです。懐かしいです。今日は7名中5人が集まりました pic.twitter.com/Lu4HV8TU1p— Yuji Naka / 中 裕司 (@nakayuji) March 6, 2019
