Top 6 people

After the match, Saiga NAK conducted an exclusive interview with the winner, GDG/Kyo!

Q. Please tell me your thoughts again today.

GDG/Kyo player: It was only 3 months since the game was released, so I only had a short amount of time to play it, and I also had a family and work commitments, so it was tough.
I was trying to kill myself by cutting back on my sleep time, so I’m glad I was able to win. I was rewarded (lol)

Q. You played several games in one day, how was it physically?

GDG/Kyo player: It was quite tough, but I think I’m one of the physically fit fighting gamers, so I didn’t have to worry about it at all (lol)

Q. Please tell me about your history with fighting games.

GDG/Kyo player: I’ve been playing at game centers since I was in junior high school, so it’s been 15 or 16 years now.
I’ve been playing “Under Night In-Birth” since it started working.

Q. There is also “EVO” in America in the summer.

GDG/Kyo player: I wonder if I have the skills to pass.
I would like to take on the challenge if the conditions are right.

Q. What are the conditions?

GDG/Kyo player: After all, it’s work and family.
Especially since my children are still young, I hope I can overcome that hurdle!

Q. Lastly, please give a message to everyone who supported you.

GDG/Kyo player: I’ve been playing this game for a long time and it’s really fun.
It’s a game that gets newer every time it’s updated, and the more you get into it, the more fun it is, so I hope you’ll give it a try!
