Should be announced in famitsu or dengeki in the coming weeks

Famitsu has accidentally posted the magazine cover for next week’s issue of Famitsu on their website and it has revealed that they’ll be having a feature on a new game called “Love Plus+”.

It was posted here but it has since been removed.

Yesterday, introduced via Ishii Jirou from Chunsoft, I managed to get a chance to have a meal with the two gentlemen from TYPE-MOON, Nasu Kinoko and Takeuchi Takashi.

The meeting only lasted for a short while, but the meeting was pure enjoyment and I have not had something like that in a while.

It was the first time we met but I felt like we had already known each other for a long time, I felt a kind of affinity that was like deja vu.

It’s a special privilege that only creators have. Even when age or race are completely different, we can still understand each other instantly when we have the same “smell”.

Even though we’re from completely different areas, it does raise my spirits to get to know people who are working really hard and suffering in agony but continue to still create new work.

It makes me feel that I have to continue working just as hard as they are too!

I got them to sign a copy of Kara no kyoukai as we parted.

Nasu-san, Takeuchi-san, Ishii-san, thank you very much.

Nikkei Net reports that game company Atlus, in an effort to strengthen their online gaming business, has acquired Gonzo Rosso as a subsidiary. Atlus will be acquiring a 54.6% stake in Gonzo Rosso.

Gonzo Rosso was the only part of Gonzo that was still making a profit, so i guess it makes sense that some company would be interested in acquiring them.

Also Megaten strange journey is wonderful, I just wish I had more time so I can finish the game.

According to Yahoo news, the Osaka Prefectural Police has arrested a 25 year old man named Mishima Kazuya on the 23rd of October on suspicion of having grown marijuana on his roof. According to the police, Kazuya claims that it was left there by an acquaintance.

The police were tipped off by another acquaintance of Mishima Kazuya.

The image used for this post has nothing to do with the Mishima Kazuya that just got arrested (I think)

Producer Kawachi Atsunori explained the reason behind how the heroine costumes start showing more skin when they activate songs, saying that “By showing more skin, they are able to absorb more of the planet’s energy”. There were some small snickers coming from the audience after hearing this, but he continued saying

“The world can only be saved because the heroines took off their clothes!”

And everybody laughed and clapped their hands.

Looks like Ar Tonelico 3 will be a great game!
