Namco Taiko Blog (1 May 2014) - 3rd Outfit Contest: The Results Are In!

Today's blog update is image-packed! Specifically we are going to see the winning entries of the 3rd Outfit Contest, hosted back in Sorairo ver. and judged by everyone at the April 11 livestream.

Without further ado, let's get to the winners! Note that some of the entries will need context from the titles also, so we will be translating them too.

First, the honorable mentions:
Awesome Prize - Weruame

Adorable Prize - [Deliciously Seasonal Pot] Kazune~ and Shi~bo

Watch Your Belongings Prize - [THIS IS A KATSU!] Kupuran
(Seriously though guys, remember to keep your card safe)

Coincidence Prize (Cresented Moon) - Inocchi, Hashigen, ~Haniwa~, SugiokaSonubon

Coincidence Prize (Autumn Roasted Sweet Potato) - Ripple, Gin, Hikaroll

Exam Fighter Prize - [Self Rivalry] Kuroyatsu! and [Self Rivalry] Moegi

Staff Member Prize (Etou, Matsumoto) - [Member of Taiko Team] Hakki and [Dark Type Donder] Namaka

Sorairo → Momoiro Prize - [Truth Under the Mask] Popura and [Nijiiro Yumeiro Taikoiro] Momoiro

Namco Original Prize (Yozakura Braiders) - [Set Out We Shall!] Suigun

Namco Original Prize (Kechadon 2000) - [Sensei, Not Yet?] Samidare

And here are the entries that made it to the shortlist:
The Hinomaru Flag - [Hardworking Producer] Hinomaru

The Olympics - [Supreme Challenger] Kazuyuki

NegaPosi - [Inhabitant of the Inner World] Tarowo

Just Passed Shodan - [Donder Debut] Ootori

Thick Ramen Soup - [Deep Stepper] Kotteri

Via the voting system at the livestream, the winner by popular demand is Tarowo! The color scheme actually becomes Don-chan's normal colors when viewed as negative. Very ingenious and very fitting to the entry title!

With this contest concluded, Etou hints at an upcoming 4th Outfit Contest, in which the new multi-part outfit system from Momoiro ver. really gets to shine!

And as before, the Team prepared a background with all the entries above included. Download the full-size image from here!


It's been fun seeing all the creative works of the Donder community, but this blog post has to end here... not yet? OK, apparently we have more news.

The 2nd round of Special Title Parts Gacha will start today (May 1) at 13:00, until midnight of June 15. As mentioned in the April 11 livestream, this time we will see some of the retired titles from Sorairo and before returning as title parts! Also the title parts "Chikuwa" (ちくわ), "†" (dagger symbol) and "Fallen Angel" (堕天使), as voted by the audience, will also enter the scene in this period. Stock up your Shopping Points to get them all!

For real this time, the blog post wraps up here. Thanks for reading and see you next week!
