Unboxing: Shinobi, Koi Utsutsu Limited Edition for PS4

CDJapan was selling the 2-in-1- PS4 port Shinobi, Koi Utsutsu -Banka Aya Emaki- aka NinKoi for an insanely cheap price as part of their summer sale (only 2760 yen!?), so I decided to buy it as an early birthday gift for myself~ 🥳

This is more of a mini unboxing since I didn't buy anyplace special for shop bonuses, but I'm still happy with it!

Kamiaso and Korosuto Switch Ports Announced!

Happy almost 8th anniversary to Kamigami no Asobi (aka Kamiaso) and almost 3rd anniversary to Koroshiya to Strawberry (aka Korosuto)! 🥳

After cryptically posting a lot of "Coming Soon" posts for both series on their Twitter accounts, Broccoli announced Switch ports for both Kamiaso and Korosuto! The new games will be titled Kamigami no Asobi Unite Edition and Koroshiya to Strawberry Plus respectively. 

Kamiaso Unite Edition (rated Cero D) will be a 2-in-1 port that includes both PSP game Ludere Deorum and the PSP/Vita game InFinite. The content of the games will remain the same, but of course now you get to view in higher resolution~

Korosuto Plus (Cero rating TBA) will have a new voiced episode that takes place after the main story's love ending.

Surprisingly, Broccoli already has release dates for them, with Kamiaso to release on January 27, 2022 and Korosuto to release on February 23, 2022! 

For those interested in the coming soon posts, you can find them here:

Kamiaso - [1], [2], [3]

Korosuto - [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7]

Until next time~

P.S. The full cover art for Kamiaso Unite Edition is really pretty!

P.P.S. For April Fools, the heroines were put into each other's games. 🤭

AllAksys 2021: Aksys Localization Announcements for 2022!

 

Aksys will also be bringing 4 more titles over to the West: Lover Pretend, Paradigm Paradox, Kimi wa Yukima ni Koinegau, and Piofiore Episodio 1926 will be releasing in 2022!

Piofiore fans of course are being fed with the sequel to the first game. It's amazing to see more lighthearted games like Lover Pretend and Paradigm Paradox, and it's a welcome surprise that KimiYuki is also being localized despite just releasing in Japan on July 29th of this year! 💖

AllAksys 2021: Soundtracks Available for Upcoming Otome Games!

Today Aksys announced at their #AllAksys stream that Olympia Soirée, Dairoku: Agents of Sakuratani, and Variable Barricade will be confirmed to have soundtracks! Details on how to purchase and add them to your preorder from the Aksys store will be sent via email within a few days.

It's not often we got otome soundtracks in Western fandom, so this is definitely very exciting to see! 😊

Blog Update: Discontinued Use of Follow by Email!?

It's the last day of July! And I'm here with a blog update. 

A while back, Google announced that Feedburner, who manages Blogger's "Follow by Email" widget, would be discontinuing their email subscription service after July 2021. This means that starting tomorrow (or possibly even today depending on the timezone), anyone who is subscribed here via email will no longer receive notifications when I post something new. 

I've been searching for a bit, but I hope to find another third party service that would let me do email subscriptions again. Apparently there is a way to export current email subscriptions but.. that is something I'll have to figure out at a later time. 😅

Until a find a solution, you can also find me on Twitter and Tumblr! Although I post and retweet/reblog lots of other content there too, I also include any Blog posts that I have made.

Alternatively, I have been considering the possibility of moving to Wordpress for a while now, but I hope it doesn't come to that since I am quite partial to Blogger. (Plus that means learning coding and formatting for a whole new site haha)

To all who have been here on my blog, whether you're a long-time follower or a recent discoverer, thank you so much for the support all these years. I hope you will continue to visit and support this blog. 🙏

Until next time!

BUSTAFELLOWS Collector's Edition [Eng] Unboxing

The English version of BUSTAFELLOWS is set to release on July 30th, but the Collector's Edition came home early I'm so happy!!!! 🥰

Since PQube collaborated with Funstock, the Collector's Edition shipped from the UK. I've never had something shipped from there so I'm very thankful Funstock didn't charge outrageous shipping, and it's an amusing experience to see French on the back of my game instead of Spanish haha.

But without further ado, here's the contents of this lovely Collector's Edition!

Favorite Game Meme: Otome Edition

 I keep... forgetting to post about this. 🤡

So way back in January there was a meme that went around where you talk about things of your favorite games, among other things. A version was then tweaked to better fit otome games, and thus this creation came about~ Even though there's a lot I still haven't played or finished, this seemed really fun so naturally I had to participate!

To no one's surprise, a lot of this is about BWS and Dialovers or even Rejet in general LOL. But of course I am always here to talk about the things that have a dear place in my heart, so I'm sharing this here as well. 😊

If you would like to create your own version, you can find the original post here! What games will you pick?

Until next time~ 🌺

Rejet Archive Resumption of Drama CDs this July!

After approximately a six month hiatus with only a couple things posted in June, Rejet Archive will be resuming its uploading of older Rejet Drama CDs during this July! They even posted a schedule so you know which ikemen to be on the lookout for~

First Time at Book Off! Shopping Haul June 2021

Over the years I've heard stories of people finding cheap otome games and merch at this second hand store called Book Off, but I could only dream of visiting since there are no locations where I live. 

However I was out of town recently and happened to be near a store... so naturally I couldn't resist!!

While this may seem like my first merch haul post for a while, I actually have a couple more hauls ahead of this. They're traveling by sea though so it'll take quite some time before they arrive lol...

Anyway. Onto the merch haul!
