Riot called We Are Royale for a promotional campaign to mark its latest array of skins, cosmetics, and new lore for its Star Guardian Summer Event. As a series of parallel universe skins under their League of Legends IP, the story follows a group of high school students who choose to become protectors of the celestial world by battling cosmic enemies who threaten their universe. Honestly, there’s no better way to celebrate this adolescent generation of guardians than by falling wholeheartedly into a tribute to those classic magical girl animes we know and love — here’s to the path you paved, Sailor Moon. My task was to create the city and school sequences.
