Despair Arc and Future Arc is not enough! After both series end (Which should be in about two weeks), it will be a short wait until we can get more Danganronpa! A new trailer shows New Danganronpa V3: Everyone’s New Semester of Killing will hit Japan in January 2017. We also get to meet our new protagonist, Kaede Akamatsu.
From the trailer, it looks like the newest game will be taking place in the ruins of Hope’s Peak Academy with similar gameplay to the first two titles. Do you think Hope will win yet again in the next game? Check out some screens and the trailer below!

At Tokyo Game Show, Square Enix has given us a look at the one of the most anticipated upcoming titles: Kingdom Hearts 2.8. I am so excited to play this game and play through Aqua’s story! While we are grieving that it has been delayed (Why must they play with our Hearts like this?), at least we can jam out to the latest mix of Utada Hikaru’s “Simple and Clean”. Check out the trailer below!
What would your first thought be if you were transported to a fantasy world out of nowhere? I think I would freak out. Subaru, on the other hand, instantly knows he is in a fantasy world and hopes that he was the “chosen one” with extraordinary powers- nothing could be further from the truth.
Subaru is almost mugged and then is saved by a mysterious girl in search of a thief. He agrees to help her and tracks down the thief only to be killed by someone. You would think that the main character wouldn’t die so early. But, he comes back from the dead to an earlier point in the day before he even met the girl and only he remembers. It takes Subaru a while to even realize he has the power to repeat some actions after dying, but when he does, he continuously relives certain days until he gets it right almost like Groundhog Day.
The story is quite interesting since nothing is ever the same, but at the same time it’s frustrating because I wondered why Subaru didn’t use some of his previously gained knowledge to his advantage on the next go around. All that being said, the Anime has a way of pulling at your heartstrings repeatedly every time Subaru fails to accomplish an important goal. I really recommend this anime. The first season is 25 episodes long, and there has not been any announcement for a second season. Go watch it and let me know what you think. If you already watched let me know what you think!
