- CANAAN’s manga is getting serialized in comp ace, author is Ishida Akira. As of today, it’s a “new pickup” by listing on the official site.
- The Tales of Versus OP has, for some reason, been leaked. Catchy song indeed.
- I’m really slow on this, but I noticed there were scans out detailing info for the Tales of Vesperia movie. Info here. Characters include the female knight called Shastell and Hisuka (her twin) and two new guys called Nairen and Gallister. (I don’t know if my romanizations will be 100% right though)
- Kanokon DVD Box set for 22nd Jan 2010.
- As some of us may already more or less know, the cover for Type Moon Ace 3 (I consider this cover a better indication of the final published product since it’s on the comptiq main page) which is set for the 21st of August 2009. The AATM comic this time round is drawn by B-Suke (who has drawn for DNA Comics’ KnK anthologies before, amongst others). As per TM Ace releases, it’ll cost 780 yen.
This time there’s a Melty Blood Drama CD which humorously enough, has Neco Arc and Dust of Osiris Sion on the cover.
Hopefully this particular release will shed more light on Mahoyo’s release date, platforms, price, etc. Since the last time TM Ace came out all they said was they were aiming for a release date around september-october. Since the mobile site’s coming along fine and the hype campaign’s stepping up i’d say there’s much to anticipate.
– I came across this Darker than Black: Ryuusei no Gemini scan (magazine unknown) and would like to know why the hell a squirrel is a character. Also interestingly enough it says the Blu-Ray box is set for the 30th of September.
- Why is Black Lagoon Season 3 an OVA? And why is it coming in 2010? /say incoherent engrish curse phrase
- Dengeki has an article up about the new Valkyria Chronicles for the PSP in winter ‘09 plus some *cough*schooldramalookin’*cough* cover art.
- What the hell, a menu based off Saki? (Truth be told it’s some collaboration) I mean the Fate/Unlimited codes maid cafe event had an “angra mainyu shake” but the koromo one is superior.
It’s times like these I TRY to drill something into my head, like the fact I CONTINUE TO BLOG, or whatever.
So, yeah…here we go.
1. GUST, NIS and Idea factory are making a new RPG for the PS3 called Trinity Universe. It will retail for 7329 yen in August. Scans here and here. It reminds me of Eternal Sonata.
2. New Ryu Ga Gotoku game in development. Thanks, Neogaf.
3. Melty Blood Actress again PS2 confirmed for the 22nd of October 2009.
4. Fate/Zero SOUND DRAMA vol. 3 announced for the 28th of August, with an exhibit showcasing it at HOBIBOX’s comiket 76 booth. Type/Moon Drama CDs are always interesting insights into the characters of the franchise (F/Z being the one in this case). Just like the AATM drama CD was a great way to get acquainted with the cast of Type-Moon.
Fate/Stay Night Realta Nua THE BEST (i kid you not, this is the title) on sale on the 18th of June, 2009. I think it’s like a platinum version of the classic realta nua. Cheaper and shit, etc…
The Kara no Kyoukai 6 DVDs of fairy tale or oblivion recorder/boukyaku rokuon will be released in 2 editions on the 29th of July. The Limited edition comes with stuff like a Soundtrack CD for DVD 6 and pamphlets with Takeuchi’s original illustrations, despite the fact numerous Type-Moon illustrators > Takeuchi. LE costs 7875 Yen, Normal costs 5040 Yen, but Amazon sells it at 26% off if you order now.
Bakemonogatari Anime Greenlit with TV Tokyo, Saitama TV, Chiba TV and TV Kanagawa broadcasting, date is July 2009 for broadcast.
Special thanks to Seasons of Change for the Type-Moon updates.

Fate/Unlimited codes gets localized via digital distribution, GONZO returns for Strike Witches 2, CLANNAD’s Another World: kyou’s story pre-screening and uh…
1. Fate/Unlimited Codes set for localization and digital delivery. Although content-wise, there’s little to actually be had ‘cept new costumes and the option for wireless play. (The PS2 has no form of wireless device, lol)
2. Another World: Kyou’s Story will be pre-screened on the 24th of May. About a month and a week before DVD8 comes out on the 1st of July, over at this place. Time: 13:30 to 14:40 JST.
3. GONZO returns for Strike witches S2? I give them mad props for knowing when to hang on to a series.

I wish I had more Type-Moon news, but I got nothing. Well, I got nothing unless you’re interested to know that there was a pretty large Canaan event held recently.
– I’m not dead or shit, just busy.
Anyway, here’s some interesting stuff of note:
1. The Kalied Prisma Ilya 2wei (I still say Zwei sounds more…magical) continuation of Kalied Prisma Ilya, the previous 13 chapter (?) spinoff of Fate/Stay Night’s very own Ilya begins it’s serialization run today in Comp Ace. Nazarielle, seriously, read this if you have any love for Ilya. Go here, and get chapters 1 and 2.
2. Sora no Otoshimono (lit. Lost Property of the Heavens) or as i’d translate it (The Lost Belonging of the Sky) gets an animu adaptation.
3. Orange box for 66% off? brb time to go into NEET mode.
4. One Day Volume 13 will be released at COMIC 1☆3 on the 26th. If you live in Japan, seriously, BUY THIS.
And yeah, that is about…it!
So yeah, basically i’m not dead, i’m still scanning One Day Vol. 6 (which will be out soon, hopefully monday) and…I…will get started on volume 7 soon!
Also, the 7 days of Vesperia WILL BE FINISHED. I NEED SOME TIME TO THINK WHO SHOULD GO NEXT. OKAY WAIT ACTUALLY I JUST NEED THE TIME.
News thanks to: [kotaku | hiroyama hiroshi's blog | moonphase]
Yeah! Now that’s something I want to get off grade grinding in Vesperia to see!
Nothing beats grinding like the bittersweet taste of anticipation~
