Canned Dogs

Taiwanese-made Norn Saber Online showed that they loved Japanese by hiring Japanese voice actresses to voice all their characters in Japanese, but apparently that was not where their love stopped at.

In an act of such magnitude that would even bowl Ikegami Akane over, almost all the art in the game appears to be traced from Japanese galge and eroge. Some samples are shown above, with art from Norn Saber Online on the left, and the original on the right.

A huge number of comparisons can be found at a chinese blog here.

It’s probably all a coincidence. Like China’s Saint Seiya online game which isn’t Saint Seiya.

List of some titles where art was traced from:
Maid-san to ooki na ken
Galaxy Angels
Haruka ni aogi, uruwashino
Kao no nai tsuki
Joukyou kaishi!
Shuumatsu Shoujo Gensou Alicematic
Blue Flow
Blue Flow 2
Buraban!
Zwei Worter
Doukyuusei 2
Demonbane
LOST CHILD
Yuugeki Keikan Patvessel
Baldr Force
Vagrants
Kaze no keishousha
Eternal Fantasy
Beat Blades Haruka
Alice Parade
Gunslinger girl
Minamike

I don’t know why I’ve ended up posting so much about Chinese stuff recently, but this should be the last of it. I hope.
