Don’t hold your breath. D.C. 1 is pretty much a done deal, unless sales miraculously skyrocket.
there also might be an rpg or a game set in middle ages
the post as seen below hints at more da capo stuff
Silently,
Cherry blossoms danced in the air,
Surprisingly slowly,
Without making a sound.
Cherry blossoms were fluttering to the ground as far as I could see,
As if they were trying to color this canvas,
As if they were trying to add color to this blank, white world.
They were gracefully dancing in the air.
It was so very beautiful-
Amazingly beautiful-
That even I, who was all alone,
Who could only shiver,
Who was so lonely,
And who was so lost, found myself fascinated
By that beautiful scene.
Therefore,
I thought that this must be a dream.
It was a blank dream:
A dream within a dream.
Although I knew I would wake up any minute,
I still longed to dream.
It felt like my heart was brimming with new expectations,
It felt like I could shed a tear as I basked in the sun,
And it felt like I was waiting for spring to come in the middle of winter
As I dreamt.
I squeezed the hand that was stretched out towards me.
It was a warm hand.
In this freezing cold world,
In the snow,
I seek out its warmth,
And squeeze it.
That was
The beginning of my dream that announced the beginning¬Ö
Slowly, yet steadily,
As the cherry blossoms fluttered to ground,
As the the stifling hot summer rolled by,
And the cries of the cicadas faded,
As the Autumn leaves filled the world with color
In memory of kingdoms fallen long ago,
As the cold chill of winter gripped the land,
The Season of Da Capo was approaching.
That last stanza seems to point towards D.C. After Seasons.
http://www.project-navel.com/oretsuba/ It can’t really be referring to anything other than Oretsuba.
Did anyone save those two audio samples? They no longer work because the files (mg-audio1.mpg and mg-audio2.mp3) have disappeared. I’d like to have a listen.
Okay, let’s try and decode MG’s code:
Okay, the Cicada part obviously is a reference to Higurashi and that we can expect the final two answer arcs soon.
The Autumn part I don’t know since I don’t know any autumn themed games. If anyone does, please give your theories.
The part for the kingdoms is likely a reference to either this: http://www.getchu.com/soft.phtml?id=603145
or this: http://www.getchu.com/soft.phtml?id=434925
The winter part likely hints at a winter themed game. This could be Oretsuba, or it could be Kanon as an interview hinted MG had made a deal with them.
The last sentence is probably hinting at DC After Seasons
Based solely on looking at the pictures, the second one intrigues me more than the first… but gah, I have a backlog already…
Some games that came out from a search with the tag winter on VNDatabase.
http://vndb.org/v2654 (I don’t think that a Mangagamer-Pulltop deal is actually possible - I would think more likely one JAST-Pulltop, given that they already brought us Princess Waltz - but you never know)
http://vndb.org/v33 (well, this game definitely needs no introduction, but I thought there were already available a patch)
http://vndb.org/v2626 (amazing how this game keeps popping up whenever I talk of Mangagamer on this forum. It may be worth mentioning that Cartagra came up in that search, too, but based on my experience on both games I think the winter theme is more relevant in Caucasus)
my guesses:
Theirs a mention/reference to each Season, apparently theirs a fandisk for each season of Da Capo which makes me wonder if they picked up all 4 season fandisks. But the mention of the ‘Season of Da Capo’ is heavily hinting towards the compilation. I believe their was a recent mention that Circus was really in on it too or something like that, hinting at possibly more than 1 title.
Cherry blossoms represent spring, thus the spring disc OR the DCII spring disk
Summer = Da Capo Summer Vacation
Autumns = either the DC autumn fandisk ( can’t find name of it ), Seasons of DC, or something else
Winter = Kanon or DC related, they’ve already hinted at kanon in another article ( their was a mention of food you don’t wanna eat…thats either Clannad or Kanon )
no one else thinks the ‘In memory of kingdoms fallen long ago,’ could be referencing Koihime musou?
It’s based on Romance of the 3 Kingdoms that fell a long time ago.
I don’t believe it says anywhere if the hints are for new licenses or unreleased games or a combination of both.
meaning that line could very well be referencing Koihime.
And the cries of the cicadas faded,
Higurashi obviously
‘faded’ refering to the end of the series.
So pretty much:
Koihime musou - confirmed
Higurashi - confirmed
DCII - confirmed
Zaishuu The SiN - confirmed
Kanon - Hinted at more than once now
D.C. ~Da Capo~ Seasons - Another DC title has been hinted at, this being the most probable
Its possible they have more titles, but i think they wouldn’t have many more than this, since they have alrdy confirmed that they have:
Mashou no Nie ( possibly dropped )
Dengeki Strikers
Deardrops
That’d be 10 titles so far ( Higurashi has 2 remaining parts ). 9 without counting MnN. Add 4 onto it if they released the individual DC seasons instead of the compilation. I think they may have at most 1 more title, hidden inside that poem.
I’m going to laugh if those referred to Infantaria… XD
(An interesting game where there are no mosaics in the original game since they don’t show any genitalia.)
sort of like ‘Sense Off’ and the ‘What a Beautiful’ eroges (since Inganock)
I emailed uk-anime and they fixed the audio samples on http://www.uk-anime.net/articles/MangaGamer_interview/3
Too bad, but I don’t recognise either song. Oh well!
Hmm, I don’t think either sample is from Oretsuba, so my guess is probably wrong. Hopefully they’ll get it at some stage though, as it’s currently the best unlicensed title within the companies Mangagamer currently has access to.
it seems some guys from ‚ge will be showing up at the mangagamer booth at Anime Expo i hope it means they could be releasing kimi ga or muv luv
http://novelnews.net/2010/06/13/age-to- … expo-2010/
We can only hope
Given the nature of Muv luv and the precarious position they seem to be in right now I don’t think they’ll go after a title where people would be pissed off if they didn’t translate the sequals and related material because it ties so much into the first game. That is unless the get a good rate and release them similar to Higurashi.
Needs moar blud. 
MG’s dropping hints at their next guest company at AnimeEx on twitter here they are:
(there first hint was announcing they had another guest company)
Hint 2: They released their first game in 2000
Hint 3: The company has produced a game (or more) which features a girl (or more) who fight using magic.
Hint 4: At some point in the company’s lineup, one of their girls has worn a maid outfit.
Hint 5: They’ve had a game where a heroine is covered in blood in one of the CGs.
Hint 6: In one of their games, you have to have sex with a girl in order to supply her with power.
Gosh, I wonder which company this could possibly be :mrgreen:
my guess is type moon
And if hint 6 wasn’t obvious enough :roll: :
Hint 7: The main character in one of their games has the ability to ‘see death’
