High resolution photo from Shibuya's Facebook page. Maybe Switch can translate what's on the whiteboard? Here's what I can make out. The content is non-spoilerish. http://i.imgur.com/SkRcFgjl.png "Dynamic seeds" sounds intriguing. (At least that's what I think the most likely translation ...

The text at the top of the page says

Translation of the rest of the article is coming soon.

Here is a translation of part of a Japanese magazine interview with Yu Suzuki that was published in the May 9 (2016) edition of the Bessatsu Shonen magazine. The article scan was obtained by Ziming.

Thanks! I had been hoping someone would do a write-up. Looking forward to reading your impressions.

That reminds me - I need to finish off translating the remaining parts of this article (if people find it of interest).

Subtitled English translations from the Japanese have now been completed for Yu Suzuki's full Shenmue 3 presentation held recently at MAGIC Monaco. Thanks to Yokosuka for providing translations from French.

Edit: also a big thank you to Shenman for the timely tweets throughout the conference!

Wonder no more! English subtitles added and thread posted here.
