This is a thread for sharing general news about anime or video games or other entertainment that you don't feel like making a thread for.

I find myself not wanting to make a new thread for stuff and then I either forget about it or I put it in the blog thread as a last resort, which is quite awkward. Maybe other people feel that way, too. Well, here's an attempt to fix that.
This is not a containment area for such news, rather it's just a more centralized thread to put it when you don't want to create a new thread to share some info before moving on to something else.

This was also a double announcement where Kyoani also released some promotional material for an upcoming 'City' animation, of which the source is the same author as Nichijou.

You do have enough money to buy the BDs this time, right /qa/?

By chance while watching a speedrun it mentioned Lunar in the State of Play video >>>/jp/81254

There's a Lunar Remastered Collection! I have mixed feelings. Lunar was huge to my young mind: >>96100
But, it's just I'm tired of remasters and remakes. The first Lunar has been redone like 6 times across so many different platforms, but it's actually new that the second one gets acknowledged. But, hmm... if they do an accurate translation then it could be worth it. Not buying a PS5 for it, though.
The dream of a Lunar 3 is as far as ever. Oh, I remember taking part in forum threads sharing theories of what Lunar 3 would be about...

That's actually kinda smart. People have been saying for years that emulation is around the corner but even the most recent videos show it is still miles away from unplayable. Simply porting the assests to pc elden ring makes sense. But if a true PC port actually comes out with the remake like many people expect then its going to be an absolute disaster for anyone who touched these projects. Could be really sad to see tbh.

Looks like the whole Utawarerumono trilogy is coming to the Switch
https://aquaplus.jp/uta/ns/
Very unlikely this is the Utawarerumono announcement as the big Aquaplus 30th anniversery event is two weekends from now. Japanese websites can be so pretty, so very un-modern in all the good ways:https://aquaplus.jp/30event/

File:NicoNico overseas restrict….png (52.45 KB,712x924)

So this might be something to make a thread for since it seems pretty big, but for start I'll just post it here: https://blog.nicovideo.jp/niconews/231350.html

The short of it is that NicoNico stuff is now going under region locking. For me anyway, I can still access videos, but NicoNico Seiga is blocked. Trying to go to an illustration I was looking at gives me this: https://www.nicovideo.jp/region_restriction

Their reasoning is stated by:
>However, with the changing times and the diversification of devices, it has become necessary to take comprehensive measures that consider not only Japanese laws but also recent social conditions, international circumstances, and foreign laws.
>After careful consideration, we are reviewing the scope of regulations to ensure the continued operation of Niconico and its services, while maintaining our compliance with Japanese laws. This includes revising regulations on content that may violate foreign laws or offend public order and morals.

I'm not smart enough to really think about the future ramifications and what this means in the long term. My gut tells me they don't want to put up with gaijin internet anymore and considering the shit Japanese creators get over social media like twitter I can see why, but that's just gut feeling and not founded on much else but anecdotal evidence.
Either way I'll just leave this info here as that and let you come to your own conclusions and people more savvy than I discuss.

This could be because of that ransomware thing that happened some months ago. I don't recall ever hearing anything about NicoNico having trouble with loud twitter types.

This is Seiga, though. Sorta like Pixiv in that it's for sharing images, I believe? I've never particularly been a fan because the UI is so much more cumbersome and only occasionally stumble my way there when looking at image sources.

Yuru Camp is getting a season 4. The new style was a bit strange at times, but I still liked S3 so I'm looking forward to this. The show with the oldest and malest demographic in that one chart continues on...

Aquaplus announced an original VN named Jasmine, a 3D Toheart remake, an original RPG, and of course the Monochrome Mobius sequel already mentioned in the Utawarerumono thread.

What a way to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the company! I think we can count on Utawarerumono and probably the RPG making its way to English, but I'm not sure about the others.

Well, it's $18, or $25 physical. A strange decision, but at least they passed the cheap production costs onto the customer. If it's just 3D still shots then meh, but if there's animation then it might be kinda cool.

The next Precure is going to be idol themed. I have a bad feeling about this since it sounds more grounded and less magical and it's rare that I like an idol show. It needs to be very cute or something silly like the fruit tarts, but maybe Precure could pull it off.

 No.135623

>>135622
bottom reads like "you and lolol precure" heheheh
i imagine it'll depend on how much magic they integrate into the idoling business, which may be a fair deal judging from how not particularly grounded wonderful has been

I don't know if this qualifies for this thread, but I found this useful website today which allows you to download music from premium streaming services in lossless formats. It can be a bit slow at peak times but doesn't have any advertisements or whatever. I'm not very competant with audiophile stuff but I think this audio spectrum is fine because it doesn't have a hard cutoff anywhere.
