Japanese developers and anime makers love April Fool’s Day (1st April). Every year they put so much effort in a joke that lasts only one day, and all these jokes just keep getting better and better each year. Here is a recap of some of the best stuff that fans should not miss!<\/p>\n

1. FGO GO<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Super popular mobile RPG Fate\/Grand Order does not limit its joke to just a fake piece of news or a serious yet ridiculous picture. The developer TYPE-MOON actually made a Pok\u00e9mon Go parody game, Fate\/Grand Order Gutentag Omen (FGO GO), specially for April Fools.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The game allows players to catch chibi servants in augmented reality. Instead of using a Pok\u00e9 Ball, the players have to throw a gem in order to catch a servant. Unfortunately, the game was only available on April Fools.<\/p>\n

2. Live action Osomatsu-san<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Osomatsu-san is an anime series that does not feature handsome shonen characters but still manages to capture tons of girls’ hearts. On April Fools, Osomatsu-man announced a live action movie and released a picture of the cast.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Yes, this is the live action of ojisan Osomatsu-san where they are thirty years older. The cast consists of the six main actors from Japanese drama Byplayers, which follows the cohabitation life of six ojisan. Fans were shocked, of course, but at the same time convinced by the idea since the drama somehow conjures up the possible future of the six brothers. To conclude, this is one good joke that may come into reality.<\/p>\n

3. Rejet Friends<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Japanese developer Rejet is famous for its otome games and mobile game Icchibanketsu -ONLINE. On April Fools, they announced they were planning to make a game called Rejet Friends.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The name sounds strangely familiar because this is in fact a parody of Kemono Friends. According to the picture above, characters from Rejet games all appear to be animals. Unlike FGO GO, this is not actually a game. This is just a visual to make fans happy, while actually it disappointed a lot of females who love cute guys with animal ears and wish it would be true.<\/p>\n

4. Live action LoveLive! Sunshine!!<\/span><\/p>\n

LoveLive! Sunshine!! fooled fans with a 15-minute long video of its live action adaption. Unfortunately the official video has been removed, yet fans can still watch it on other channels.<\/p>\n
