Producer began the interview by talking about Peach Ball: Senran Kagura, a game that is part of the Senran Kagura series and is now available on the Nintendo Switch in Japan. Takaki confessed as he had done on a previous occasion, that he came up with the idea of making Peach Ball because he thought it would be fun to make Switch's Rumble HD react with a pinball game where the ball could hit the girls' breasts. However, as the issue of censorship is very sensitive in other countries and as the interview was to promote the Chinese version of Peach Ball Senran Kagura, the producer was asked if he had any content censored, responding that the Chinese version of the game will be the same as the Japanese version.

He was also asked about the incident with YouTube when a flow of Peach Ball was stopped, but Niconico Douga continued, Takaki alleged the following:

"We really had in mind what to do and what not to do, to avoid banning the YouTube broadcast, but in the end it was banned, on Twitter, and then the views of the Niconico broadcast went off."

On the other hand, when asked if Honey∞Parade had planned to make a new series of Senran Kagura games on Switch, Kenichiro reserved a lot of information, since from now on he can not share anything, however, later, they could reveal information about some details it. Takaki also said that he would like to make real Senran Kagura games for Nintendo Switch.

Kenichiro Takaki revealed that he would rather wait to see if the game is popular enough to make a sequel with more characters, instead of doing more DLC for Peach Ball Senran Kagura.

Another important issue that was discussed during the interview was Senran Kagura 7EVEN. Takaki was asked to comment on his earlier statements regarding sexual content regulations that are becoming stricter on PlayStation 4. These were the statements that the producer provided:

"This is not something that is limited to PlayStation platforms, but it affects the overall average, on a global scale, I always thought this would happen, but it happened a little faster than I expected, so I'm worried about how things they will go from now on. "

Takaki said that they are considering that the final version of Senran Kagura 7EVEN will be different from what it was originally planned to do.

"There is a high probability that we can not launch the game if we continue with our initial plans, I'm thinking about what we should change and think."

In the interview multiple solutions were proposed to Takaki, one of them was to make two versions of Senran Kagura 7EVEN, with different classifications by age. And if they could the possibility of transferring the series to PC.

"I did not think of doing two versions, but ... (he pauses to think), it's probably very complicated to implement, I do not think it will change much, first of all, Senran Kagura is a part of a niche genre, wherever that is, there are many realistic violent games like FPSes on PC that work well, we believe that moving the series to PC is the right option, we will do it ".

Another question that was asked was if Senran Kagura 7EVEN will get a worldwide release. Takaki answered the following:

"Well, we've tried to do that for years, at least we want to do simultaneous launches throughout Asia, at least 7EVEN, although I do not know how things will go, but at least I would like to launch the Chinese version at the same time as the Japanese version" .

Regarding the development of Senran Kagura 7EVEN, he was asked how complicated it has been due to its sexual content, and if the series will be able to express the ideas and elements that he dispensed with it. Takaki answered:

"Now, I'm asking myself a lot" is it okay to make a Senran Kagura game without the clothes being torn and filled with breasts? "I do not know how far it will go, how stiff things will become and what we will not be able to do More, but there are definitely things that are forbidden, I am extremely anxious about that, it goes without saying that Seran Kagura's appeal is not only his sexual attractiveness, but eliminating it would eliminate much of the essence of the series. you can make interesting games without so much sexualization ... but at this moment, I do not know how we could do that with Senran Kagura. "

To end the interview, the producer said that he regularly talks about these issues with Yosuke Hayashi, head of Team Ninja, and the director of Dead or Alive, Yohei Shimbori. Takaki confessed that he would love to do another collaborative event with the series Dead or Alive.

In another recent interview Kenichiro Takaki spoke about Senran Kagura 7EVEN, where he blamed Sony's new regulations for the game's busy development. However, Takaki mentioned in the same interview that the biggest change is not the Sony company, but Japan, in its entirety, since its purpose is to present a cleaner content for the 2020 Olympic Games.

Takaki said that there will always be people like him playing games with sexualization, and that there will always be fans who buy such games.
