Not my project, but as I don't think the team have a post up here yet: It looks like the Summon Night: Swordcraft Story 3 patch is out! It's available over on their page for it, alongside some details and words from some team members: snsc3translation.github.io (images also taken from their site)

You can’t even comprehend how important Eien ni Hen’s work is to the fan translation community. Romancing SaGa, Fire Emblem, Sakura Wars, Tear Ring Saga, Glory of Heracles, Dragon Force II, Dark Half, Beyond Oasis, Psi-O-Blade, Arabian Nights, and so much more. What a loss. Rest in peace.

Another recent short anime I finished. From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman isn’t an isekai but more of a traditional fantasy story. It was breezy. My favorite part being that they showcase the swordplay fairly simply and not flashy. It show that the MC is amazing at his fundamentals. 7/10

I really tried to have an open mind playing they demo of Another Eden Begins… but I can’t force myself to complete it. It feels fairly hollow both from gameplay, story, and voice direction. All the characters sound bored in their delivery. Oof.

Finally watched the first episode of Kakuseihunter Omegahorn and I liked it! The concept of combining aspects of Pokemon and Monster Hunter with Tokusatsu is pretty refreshing. Also the main girl protagonist has the sickest toku sword I’ve seen in a while. Very MH-coded.

Good primer on Torneko’s Mystery Dungeon. Concerningly, John notes “The credits to this game have a section for AI content” which is concerning considering there was no AI declaration and it’s not specific. Vibe coding? It’s sadly endemic…

from last night's ACA stream with ex-DECO planner Shunichi Ii, the precise origins of Karnov's chara design: the director was inspired by a fire breather in a specific commercial—ii thought it might've been Mandom, but I think was this specific Suntory CM www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy-z421FwGQ

Finished the first episode of Kamen Rider My-th. I'm into the premise this season. I've slacked on watching more recent ones, but I'm gonna keep current with this mousey adventure. I'm into the villains being like 1930s Japanese-era gangsters and the more experienced main protag.

Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation novel clean artwork by Inomata Mutsumi used on the cover of volume 1 published by Enix in Japan. Image depicts a young man with spiky blue hair in purple shorts and a light blue and orange vest, with a brown belt with a golden dragon crest. Next to him on the left there's a burly man with a purple mohawk. To the right there are two young women: a blonde one with long hair and a tiara, in a blue and white attire, and a smaller one with glasses in yellow and purple attire with some sort of cleric hat, holding a small staff with a ball and chain attached to one of the ends. There are some tree trunks in tones of purple in the lower left corner and a dragon in tones of yellow can be seen next to them in the upper right.

So I wanted to imagine what Mail from Falcom's Popful Mail would look like in a modern style. Taking examples from recent Trails & Ys games. Examples like Shizuna & Karja and the weird obsession with asymmetry. My friend munchiez was more than up to the task and killed it!

Wrapped up the evening watching The Ribbon Hero. I’ve heard of Princess Knight, but never knew much about it. The movie was so stylish and the backgrounds were just so lush and vibrant. Not sure if the original was magical girl-esque, but it was fun in this adaptation. Maybe I’ll pick up the manga

I have never heard of this game. The artstyle looks sick! And it seems to be Tokusatsu adjacent?
