Dengeki Online’s 10/28 Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax Ignition Livestream Archive

InTheSky October 30, 2015 Leave a reply

Missed the recent livestream for Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax Ignition? It’s fine – Dengeki Online have uploaded the stream footage to their YouTube account. The stream clocks in at around a hefty hour and a half! But, you’ll want to be aware that most of the footage features discussion from the panelists or skits.

The stream is notable for featuring the first gameplay footage of Kuroko Shirai, the newly-announced playable character for Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax Ignition. You can see her at the 38:20 mark and the 1:04:50 mark (and the two matches that follow directly after this.) It’s an opportunity to glean a little more insight into how she might play as a character.

Check out the footage at around the 28-minute mark (the first instance of gameplay footage being demoed,) and you’ll notice a new stage. It’s the SeHaGaga Academy from Hi☆sCoool! SeHa Girls! It’s the central location for all of the SeHa Girls’ shenanigans in the anime series that aired last year, and features a number of Sega-related shoutouts. I think NiGHTS floating around is a cute touch, but I personally just like NiGHTS.

New Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax Ignition Support Characters Announced

InTheSky October 27, 2015 Leave a reply

Dengeki Online revealed a couple of new support characters for Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax Ignition. Pictured above is Zero, from Re:Zero Kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu. She’s a witch, and it looks like the particular support attack she’s using can cover a lot of space.

This is Iriya from Iriya no Sora, UFO no Natsu. While just an awkward high school girl on the surface, she’s also the skilled pilot of a special jet that helps her to defend the Earth from aliens. Wonder what her support technique does…

And lastly is Tomo Asama from Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere. She is a Shinto priestess and adept with the bow and arrow. Incidentally, she isn’t a main character – it makes you wonder if someone else may show up from this series in the future.

Remember that the special livestream for Uiharu in Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax is coming up tomorrow! The Dengeki Online article linked above has got the links you need towards the bottom of the article.

Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax Ignition comes out in Japan for Vita, PS4, and PS3 on December 17th. This latest iteration of Fighting Climax already out in arcades.

New Miracle Girls Festival Trailer

InTheSky October 16, 2015 Leave a reply

A recently-released shop front trailer for Sega’s Miracle Girls Festival is now playing in retail stores across Japan. The trailer is modest in length but comprehensive, aiming to offer a summary of what’s featured in the game to entice players to buy it. It is narrated by Yuka Ootsubo (who, incidentally, voices characters from four franchises present here: Yuru Yuri, Vividred Operation, Haiyore! Nyaruko-san, and Go! Go! 575!) and Ayaka Oohashi. It’s a game meant to be both for fans of certain anime franchises and rhythm gaming fans.

Miracle Girls Festival is a Project DIVA-inspired rhythm game featuring a host of popular anime franchises with girl groups in them, among them being Wake Up, Girls!, the franchise pictured above, and Yuru Yuri. There are two songs available to play per franchise. Notable features include the game’s Tour Mode where you manage your groups and perform, figure collection, and other elements like costumes.

Miracle Girls Festival is set to release on December 17 in Japan, for Playstation Vita. There are no known localization plans for the game. One might say that this game has little chance of localization, but with Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax heading westward and Sega’s consistent localization of Project DIVA games (and these franchises represented in Miracle Girls Festival being moderately popular in their own right, such decisions can be hard to call!

New Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir Character Trailers for Velvet and Oswald

Kuronoa October 15, 2015 1 Reply

Atlus has posted the remaining playable character trailers for Odin Sphere Leifthrasir, featuring Velvet and Oswald. If you missed the other trailers, take a look at our previous articles for the Gwendolyn’s video and the Cornelius and Mercedes video.

The first trailer features Velvet, who is the surviving princess of the destroyed kingdom of Valentine. After fleeing from her kingdom, she became known as the “Forest Witch”. Her role in the story involves piecing together prophecies and preventing the end of the world. She dislikes her father, Odin, because of his actions leading to the death of her mother. The second trailer features Oswald, who serves the Fairy Kingdom of Ringford and is a human adopted by the Fairy Queen’s nephew, Melvin. He is seen as a Shadow Knight who places little value on his life.

Odin Sphere Leifthrasir will be released on January 14, 2016 in Japan and somewhere in 2016 for the Americas on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PS Vita.

New Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir Character Trailers for Cornelius and Mercedes

Draikin October 9, 2015 2 Replies

Atlus has posted new trailers for their upcoming remake Odin Sphere Leifthrasir. After the Gwendolyn trailer released earlier, we now get two additional character trailers. These feature Cornelius and Mercedes, respectively the main character of the second and third chapter of the game. Cornelius is the Prince of Titania and in love with princess Velvet. However, they both have family members disapproving of their love, leading to Cornelius being turned into a creature called “Koopa”. The second trailer features Mercedes, Princess of Ringford, who must assume leadership over her nation when her mother dies in battle. She must then lead them into battle against the Demon Lord Odin, the one responsible for killing her mother. You can watch both trailers below.

SEGA Reveals New Trailer for The World End Eclipse

Draikin October 9, 2015 Leave a reply

The World End Eclipse, Sega’s upcoming free-to-play RPG for mobile, PC and PS Vita, has received a new Japanese trailer. The trailer shows the game’s premise, a world that was destroyed by dragons and where humanity is now trying to rebuild their civilization (in fact, they’re building their towns on the back of the dragons’ remains). Aside from the simulation element in the game, where you build your town, the game’s combat system is also shown. The combat seems like a variation on the grid based combat system seen in other SEGA mobile games like Chain Chronicle, where characters move in separate lines and advance towards the enemy. At the end of the video, we also get to hear an excerpt of the game’s theme song by May’n. Watch the new trailer below!
