It was no major surprise that makura’s Sakura no Uta would top Getchu’s bishoujo game awards 2015. It is followed in the overall rankings by YuzuSoft’s Sanoba Witch and ALICESOFT’s Evenicle. All three titles claimed further awards, with Sakura no Uta voted top scenario and music, Sanoba Witch with best graphics and OP, and Evenicle rewarded for its fun system. The top three characters were Sanoba Witch‘s Nene, Sakura no Uta‘s Ai and Hanasaki Work Spring‘s Nonoka. Hanasaki actually had 4 of the top 11. Finally, ωstar’s Bishoujo Mangekyou was voted as having the best ero. Congrats to all the winners!

ALcot Honey Comb – Soshite Hatsukoi ga Imouto ni Naru (May 27th)

The protection system for AkabeiSoft3’s most recent release Hataraku Otona no Ren’ai Jijou was cracked in a matter of days. The system also caused problems for some people who purchased the game. As such, they’ve decided to forego using one for AkabeiSoft3’s Omokage, while they are in talks with a foreign company to use for hibiki works’ PURELY×CATION.
Alicetia topped Usagi in the PRIMAL×HEARTS2 chara poll. Chara polls are currently running for D.S. -Dal Segno- (for dakimakura, until February 8th), Kimi to Yumemishi (until February 10th), and Hataraku Otona (from February 12th until February 15th, with the winner getting a sub-story).
The first Amakano H OVA features Mizuki, while the PRETTY×CATION H OVA is about Komachi and Elektrichka. Does that mean the second one will be for the sisters?!
A trio of books are coming out over the next two months: FLOWERS -Le volume sur été- official fanbook (February 21st), Angel Beats! -1st beat- perfect visual book (February 29th) and Mitsumi Misato art works (March 25th), which was previously sold at C89.
The all-ages PS4/PSV port for Gesen18’s Sangokuhime4 will be out on May 26th, while they are also making some online game called Tenka Touritsu Sengokuhime Online.
Broccoli’s 1/8 scale figure of Angel Beats! -1st beat-‘s Tenshi will be out in August for ￥18,500.
The dakimakura covers for VenusBlood -FRONTIER-‘s Odin and Jorm are available for pre-order.
AkabeiSoft3 is crowdfunding a post-release event for Hataraku Otona. The prices are quite expensive, but it seems like people are willing to pay for it. Just check out that 2.8 million yen course where you get to be the protagonist. That’s kinda crazy if you ask me.
The gacha gods smiled down on me. Everything was worth it.
