[AI Video Walk] 10 Selected AI Short Films (Political)
Regarding this article, it was never intended to support any administration, but I considered deleting it following Prime Minister Takaichi's criticism of Iran and her remarks supporting Trump.
However, I have decided to keep it as a record of the giddy state of society before the election. I ask for your understanding.
Hello, this is Hidepichu. Everyone, did you go to vote?
Although it feels a bit late for a post, this time I am featuring "political" AI videos.
This is the Japanese version of the current events-themed Trump videos in the anime style I covered previously.
It is to the point where a "Takaichi-style" genre might even be created rather than just "political."
Isn't it an unprecedented phenomenon that so many videos of popular internet figures like Takaichi and Koizumi are being made, and that interest in politics has spread even to the younger generation?
Setting aside ideological right or left for a moment, this time I have viewed these works purely as "entertainment."
450,000 views! I asked AI to turn three women from the Takaichi Cabinet into Sengoku warlords, and it created another masterpiece.
There are many videos praising Takaichi with a Sengoku period theme, but this one has a significant number of views. The character design by AI stands out.
Space Battleship Takaichi
This is sci-fi. You can feel the creator's "dedication" in the design of the battleship. The obsession with detail in AI generation is something I never tire of watching.
I tried making the cabinet led by Sanae Takaichi look like a Sentai hero team, and it turned out too cool: "Takaichi Sentai Sanae-ranger"
A Sentai hero theme. The composition of fighting as a team fits the image of politics perfectly. I am surprised at how high the facial reproduction is.
G-Men 25: I tried making an AI music video with the Takaichi administration using the G-Men 75 theme song, and it was cool.
The theme song of that drama is irresistible for the Showa generation. The composition of the original footage is perfectly executed. Although there is some distortion in the faces, the atmosphere is outstanding.
Battle Without Change: LDP Presidential Election 2025 (Trailer)
This is a parody of a Showa-era film. The AI successfully reproduces the "Showa texture," and the roles fit strangely well.
[Nagatacho Kaisen] A timeline where the setting of Jujutsu Kaisen is Nagatacho
Anime expression is also in full swing! The choice of villains is exquisite, and it is structured as a story that makes you genuinely "curious about what happens next." There is also a second episode.
[House of Representatives Election] I had an AI sing about "Japanese elections," and it was so full of irony that I couldn't help but laugh. Rebooting all of Japan
A new video for the upcoming election. Characters from each party appear one after another, and the satirical lyrics might just reflect the true feelings of the citizens.
I turned Shinjiro Koizumi into a Netflix-style movie | The second-generation politician entrusted with the fate of this country
Another popular figure, Mr. Koizumi. It has an original narrative rather than just being a parody, and the quality conveys the creator's 'love (?)' for Shinjiro.
Shinjiro Koizumi when he was in a mystery anime: Detective Shinjiro and the Unsolved Labyrinth Case
While debates over portrait rights and copyrights are endless, it has the power to push through on impact alone. Mr. Koizumi has established a genre as a gag video subject.
Sanae Takaichi Ver. Song of Japan's Successive Prime Ministers [Post-war Edition]
Finally, changing the tone a bit, here is the 'Song of Japan's Successive Prime Ministers.' Unlike the previous parodies, looking at the faces of the past leaders actually serves as a bit of a history lesson.
Looking at it this way, it is an interesting phenomenon that thanks to AI tools, the stiff theme of politics is being consumed as 'content,' which in turn leads to awareness among young people.
Even if there are political cartoons in newspapers, it would be impossible for old media to go this far, wouldn't it?
