Hello and welcome to today's news from Tote Mo Tech on July 1st, 2024. In today's news, two anime films are making waves in Japan. The first film, titled "Look Back," was originally a short manga published on Jump Plus in 2021. It gained a lot of attention and has now been adapted into an animated movie. Even manga artists who have never drawn this kind of story before are praising it. The second film, "Shikonoko Noko no Koshitan Tan," is set to be broadcasted in July. Before its release, the official opening video of the anime has already surpassed 5.4 million views in just one month. People are talking about how addictive and catchy the opening intro is. Moving on to gaming news, the highly anticipated Steam Summer sale has started. PC gamers can enjoy discounted prices on various games, including Elden Ring and Palworld, until 2 a.m. on July 12th. In tech news, SoftBank, Y-Mobile, and LineMo users now have access to a free version of an AI search engine called Perplexity for one year. This AI-powered search engine offers unique features and can be utilized in various ways. Luma Labs and AI startup has introduced a new feature to their video generation AI called Luma Dream Machine. Users can now specify the ending frame of a video, allowing them to generate in-between videos from a starting image to the specified ending frame. Figma, a design tool company, has announced the launch of Figma Slides, a presentation slide creation tool. This tool focuses on interactive presentations and leverages Figma's design capabilities.
