Mazin-san's photo report on dismantlement of old SEGA HQ

News from 2019.05.07-
Archived on 2019.05.12

As the dismantlement of the old SEGA HQ is about to start, Mazin-san (Masato Nishimura-san) started taking photos of the iconic building every day.

Here is the summary.

May 7th
"Pre-Daily Ohtorii. Nothing has changed yet though, but just as a first record in Reiwa. Well, actually I passed here in a car on the very first day of Reiwa, but anyway.
'Let's burn the house every day!'
Kidding, I'm going to come here every day as often as I can."
- Masato Nishimura (Mazin)


"So I decided to do some jogging from my home in Kawasaki to Ootorii every night until the old SEGA HQ will be dismantled.
But honestly, to jog this distance every day is very challenging.
Let's say it's a recklessness of being young. I'm not young anymore though."
- Masato Nishimura (Mazin)


SEGA Official & Sonic Committee's cheer-up after Golden Week

Golden Week, the longest national holiday week of Japan has ended.
For this year 2019, this giant holiday season was especially long with 10 days due to extra holidays added because of the Era Change.
(See reaction of SEGA people on the end of Heisei era and the beginning of Reiwa era here.)

So today is the day 1 for people in Japan to get back to work for the longest national holiday they ever had. They are either filled with energy to work, or don't want to go back to work at all...

Which type are you? :D

For those who are shining with charged energy and for those who need something to lift up your day - Sonic Committee and SEGA Official are there to encourage both of you with nice stuff here!

1. Release of Team Sonic Racing is getting close, only in 2 weeks!
Are you ready to play the new type racing game with Sonic characters? Here you go! Pre-order now and get ready to give full acceleration!
"The first day after a long vacation. The head-spinning everyday started again, but if you wait 14 days more, it's the release day of Team Sonic Racing! Let's do our best for the day!"
- Sonic Committee


2. For those who need some energy source... how about this little adorable hedgehog?
"The timeline on day 1 after the big holiday is in such a chaos, so I'm posting here a video for you to pick out the thorns out of your heart. Fluffy. (At Orbi Yokohama)"
- SEGA Official

Orbi Yokohama is SEGA's animal park joined with technology where you can interact with different kinds of animals in unique environment of DigitaReal, located in Minato Mirai.
If you have a chance, visit there and you may be able to touch a real hedgehog!
