Planning and curation come from Archipel. The program includes a dialogue between Fumito Ueda and Eric Chahi, a horror roundtable with Frederic Raynal, Keiichiro Toyama, Makoto Shibata and Kono Hifumi, and a Rez 25th anniversary talk with Tetsuya Mizuguchi.","whyItMatters":"The lineup pairs Japanese and French creators on the same stage and gives Rez, Persona and the Touhou-to-The Exit 8 indie line a shared room, so the festival reads as a deliberate mapping of where the two game cultures overlap rather than a single-region convention.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe festival takes its name from the Western habit of counting games as the tenth art, after radio and television as the eighth and manga as the ninth. The Tokyo French Institute, an official French government language school and cultural center, organizes the event, with Archipel handling planning and curation.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeyond the talks, the two days include game music live performances, exhibitions of art and hardware, live drawing, and projects looking back on the history of Japanese indie games. A 30th anniversary talk covers the Persona series from Persona 3 to Persona 5, and a separate session follows Kazutaka Kodaka and Masafumi Takada from Danganronpa to HUNDRED LINE -The Last Defense Academy-.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"The Tenth Mosaic pairs Fumito Ueda with Eric Chahi and hands a horror roundtable to Frederic Raynal, Keiichiro Toyama, Makoto Shibata and Kono Hifumi.
