Anime Expo 2017 - Aksys Games Otome Announcements

Another Anime Expo is currently underway and just like last year, Aksys has announced more otomes to release in English!! All are estimated to release sometime in 2018, and the 3 new franchises all have a mystery theme ww

Zero Escape: The Nonary Games Thoughts part1 - 9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors

lmao guess who distracted herself from studying for finals

999 is about a group of 9 individuals kidnapped by Zero and forced to gamble their lives in the Nonary Game in order to escape a ship that will sink in 9 hours. On their wrists is a numbered bracelet that carries a detonator, and the only way to get rid of them is to escape or to die. Originally for DS, Steam recently released a remastered version and bundle of the first two games. On the website there's an Answers tab that I would recommend reading once you've finished the game. It has some interesting stuff and also helps to tie up any loose ends!

Collar x Malice (English) Update!

Even though Aksys hasn't made an official announcement yet, it seems their Amazon page now has a pre-order live. The game will cost $39.99 and release July 28th, 2017!

Two Aksys otome down, two to go ^_^

Will update once Aksys makes an official post

Personally I'm still debating whether I want to get collar x malice or bad apple wars haha
