One Million Power is dedicated all things related to the history of Japanese music and gaming culture. You can find everything from translations of interviews with people in the Japanese games industry that are a bit more on the obscure side of things, translations/analyses of song lyrics.
This website houses mostly translations, with all other in-depth explorations residing on the official One Million Power YouTube channel, which includes Scrolling Down the Belt. Please subscribe to the channel if you’re interested in the types of topics that you’re reading about here!
I also have a Patreon that greatly helps fund both continued work on this site, as well as the YouTube channel. You can get early access to my weekly videos for only $5 per month, and Patreon exclusive videos for $10 per month!
I also have a book available from Limited Run: Gameplay Harmonies: Japanese Recording Artists and the Video Games About Them. It’s about games that actually starred Japanese recording artists and musicians, not just featured their music! It goes all the way from the Nintendo Famicom to the Sony PlayStation 2, spans game genres from platformers to edutainment, and artists from pop idols to heavy metal bands! Gameplay Harmonies goes in depth on both the games and the artists, and even features exclusive interviews with creators who worked on some of these titles, and people whose lives were influenced by them!
Brian Clark is the sole writer/translator/producer, and also the former translator for Mognet.
