Such contributors include Takashi Takeuchi (illustrator) and Kinoko Nasu (writer) of TYPEMOON as well as a lot of internationally famous voice actors. The epic story contains both a main scenario as well as many character scenarios, which come together in a tale that is more than one million words.
