Taiko no Tatsujin x Assassination Classroom collab!




太鼓の達人 プラス

Taiko games are no stranger to create special campaigns tied in with popular Anime series, both internal and external to the Bandai animation division. However, today's newly-announced Anime collaboration ties in portable mobile/Apple devices together for the first time!

Known in Japan as Ansatsu Kyōshitsu (暗殺教室), Assassination Classroom is a recently-popular manga series made by Yusei Matsui (松井優征) which features the everyday events surrounding the class 3-E of the private Kunugigaoka Junior High School, where its students are secretely asked to kill the nick-named Korosensei (殺せんせー), a yellow alien who acts as one of their teachers and threatens to destroy our planet. With an animated series making its debut last Friday, Taiko games are making a 2-parter collaboration with this peculiar, manga-born story.


For Part 1 (which starts today!), both Taiko Plus and Taiko Tori Houdai players will be able to receive limited customization parts, starring the yellow Korosensei. Among these we have a 2-part outfit for both games and Taiko Plus-exclusive menu changes/custom wallpapers and Korosensei hitsounds, each of them available in the in-game lottery for a limited time.
