How Brave Are You? Find Out June 10 with the Choris 360° Test of Courage!

JA Bank wants you to make the best financial decisions, and they're spreading awareness to anyone who'll listen with some rather interesting techniques and a Summer Savings Campaign! Get ready to test your nerves and tolerance for things creepy-funny with the mini-game "Choris 360° Test of Courage ~Searching for Choris~" starting June 10.

In 2012, Choris debuted as the comical official character for JA Bank. He's been relatively successful with increasing popularity - partly due to all the wacky projects he's been involved in.

Anyone can experience this particular project on YouTube. Titled "Choris 360° Test of Courage ~Searching for Choris~," it's essentially a virtual test of courage with an interactive 360° panorama. Viewers find themselves in a gloomy guest room, where they can change the direction of the view from side to side and up and down - all to experience 3 worrying minutes trying to spot every apparition of Choris that appears in the room!

The Summer Savings Campaign also includes a few other activities and goods, like a limited-edition summer commercial, new LINE stickers, and other upcoming projects. Considering how strange and off-the-wall these things can be, there's definitely a bit of excitement around it!

Find out the full details on the official website.

■ Searching for Choris
The Choris 360° Test of Courage is kind of like a self-directing movie, where things play out around you and you can personally choose where to look and what to see from your preferred point of view. Choris somehow wanes in and out of existence - sometimes hilariously, sometimes creepily. The uncertainty of which one it is makes it a test of courage which is best viewed through YouTube on your smartphone.

■ Choris
At a certain hot spring are the whispers of an ancient legend - a being named Choris.
When night falls, a strange "Charin...charin..." can be heard, and then Choris appears out of nowhere.

For all those who spot the visions of him, if done correctly, they'll be blessed with great economic luck...

If you find yourself a guest there, please listen carefully. For even right by your side, Choris might appear.

If it happens to you, be sure to keep alert and count how many Choris's you see. If you fail to account for all of them...

While it seems his humorous nature might be harmless, please do be careful.
