Namco Taiko Blog (5 October 2018) - Early October's Taiko Sister Graduation


Not even a full two-months time span since the previous Taiko Team member graduation, another element of the Taiko games' official ensemble is leaving to the nicknamed No.11 one laso message to all Taiko fanms before departing from the team.

This time around, the person leaving the Taiko Team is Daifuku (大福), the 4th one to assume the role of the Taiko Team mascot as the 'Taiko no Onee-san' (太鼓のおねーさん, lit. 'Taiko Sister'). She has joined the Team about 4-5 years ago, succeeding the former Taiko Sister 17-Mas (17マス) in the previous (and now inactive) official Taiko blog, taking from there all the public-relations-oriented activities that are associate to her mascot role in all sorts of Taiko-related conventions, from tournaments to hobby fair conventions and livestreams! Daifuku has also been part of the Synchronica team, assisting during the first years of Bandai Namco's eponymous 2nd arcade music game.

Daifuku has been in so many Taiko-related events that it's hard for her to decide any particular episode to talk about in her farewell post (besides from her nickname's 'origin story' in the Taiko Team); however, she has expressed her gratitude towards all Taiko fans for sharing their joy for the series, as well as thanking the Taiko Team for supplying her a really satisfying working experience.

Adios・Amigo☆!
