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)

Archived on 2019.03.24

Naka-san re-visited the old building of SEGA HQ again to discover that the SEGA logos are now completely gone.

He posted following tweets with pictures:

"I visited the Haginaka Park near SEGA Enterprises for my children's bike riding practice, and I took this opportunity to see the building again. All of the signboards and logos on the ground were removed. According to a guardman, due to confidentiality he can't tell me what the next company is going to be, but the construction starts next week. I wonder if it's going to be taken down. "
