I just bought a new art book featuring Takehito Harada's work. This particular one is called Takehito Harada Art Works I. This particular book covers all of the NIS games Harada has done work for (All Disgaea games, Phantom Brave, Makai Kingdom, Prinny), manga, light novels, and even stuff that only appeared on Japanese promo items such as Weiss Schwarz, posters, postcards, and phone cards which never made it into other specifically designated art books and cds(World of Disgaea, character collections) is included in this book. This is not the same book as the one [livejournal.com profile] gibbboy posted. That one is called Disgaeart!! and just released which is about a month after this particular book.

I'd love to make some scans, but my scanner is no longer operational and the book is bound in a way where I feel I can't scan anything without damaging the binding. So due to that, I'll have to suffice with some lame shots with my camera to show you guys whats in it.

EDIT: I added a few more shots for anyone else who is on the fence about this.

Art Works shots )

Anyways, I paid about $50 for Art Works I at Kinokuniya and buying it online from a Japan-based retailer will cost the same due to the weight of the book with SAL shipping. It'll be more expensive with EMS. I have to say, this book is well worth it and I'm certain the newly released one will be worth every penny as well. Art Works I seems to be selling out rather quick as of the moment, so if you want nab one, now is the time to get it. More will most likely be produced as the weeks pass by though.

NIS America has just announced a contest where fans can enter submissions for a designs for Etna's panties. No joke. The top 3 submissions will win a copy of Prinny 2 and the top design will be made into an actual pair of panties . Check link for thorough details. LOL, good job NIS America.

Okay, I'm honestly surprised by the huge amount of interest in the light novels(lol how did that thread generate 100+ comments?!), and although chapter-by-chapter translations right now is implausible, I'm willing to translate certain scenes and short segments, similar to the two I've posted in the other thread.

So! Here are some options! You may request something that I haven't posted up here, but keep in mind that I only have access to the first 6 novels. So no Disgaea2/3 requests, please. Scene with most votes gets priority.

Finished now~

1. In which Laharl beats up Baal and sues him 10 billion HL + omake, Mid-boss describing his meeting with Gwen in purple prose
2. In which Laharl meets Flonne's parents and is scarred for life
3. In which Laharl has tea with Lamington and discusses Netherworld/Celestia relations
4. In which Flonne is nearly tricked by a perverted old man and Laharl makes a ruckus in the human world
5. In which Flonne and Laharl have a 'date' interrupted by Jane + omake
6. In which Laharl meets Ozonne and grants her permission to call him by name
7. In which Yasurl is knocked out by Flonne's healing staff
8. In which Laharl gets a ridiculous harem, Etna calls him "Your Majesty", and a surprising fact about angels is revealed
9. In which Laharl tries to stay as an observer while watching Gwen in battle but utterly fails which somehow turned into 90% of Laharl's adventures in Great Britain...

I am wondering, has anyone here read the light novels? I fell upon an entry on TV Tropes regarding them, and it blew my mind. I have burning questions and am illiterate in Japanese. Is there anyone out there?

And if this is not allowed, please do not hesitate to slap me. D:

Please forgive any posting errors, as this is my first time posting to LJ. >3<;

It seems that FUNimation acquired the rights to the Disgaea anime. The first dubbed episode is available to watch online.
You can read more about it here, it's a rather short post:
blog.funimation.com/2010/09/funimation-entertainment-acquires-disgaea/
I'm kind of surprised, since it's already been released and all.. perhaps it's because NIS is in a tight spot?
If this needs to be cut or anything,  please let me know.

Hi all! First time poster (literally), long time lurker. Cyberdance's profile says it's for sharing fanworks, so I figured a good way of introducing myself would be to show my contribution to the fandom. I've been working on a fanfic based off of the Almaz Ending of Disgaea 3, called "Fail to the King!" and I kind of wanted to wave it around proudly.

www.fanfiction.net/s/5856060/1/Fail_to_the_King

Right now, it's got 12 chapters and 70k words to it's name. I've been putting a lot of work into it, focusing a lot on how all of the gameplay elements like leveling, transmigration and mana might actually affect the world around them while still being treated as perfectly normal. The story itself lately reaches beyond just Evil Academy and into the other worlds of NIS games - I'm hoping to find a place for damn near each and every one before the story is through!

I realise I didn't give a summary, but I suck at summarising my thoughts. Someone did a pretty good TV Tropes article of it though!

tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/FanFic/FailToTheKing

I was pretty thrilled when I saw that. Anyway, hope you all enjoy it, drop me a comment and/or a review if you do! Later.

Don't know if this posted already...

From RPGFan,

Late last year, Nippon Ichi Software (NIS) president Souhei Niikawa told the Japanese press that his company would increase the number of PlayStation 3-based projects. In financial material released earlier today, the Gifu prefecture-based makers of Disgaea revealed that the newest installment of their flagship franchise was one of the games in the works for Sony's platform. NIS has sold more than 1.6 million copies of the Disgaea series worldwide to date.

In addition to the new Disgaea game, NIS plans to release seven games during its upcoming fiscal year, ending on March 31st 2011. Out of those eight games, six will be original titles. Going ahead, the company will carefully select games which will be published in North America by NIS America. The focus will apparently be on PlayStation 3-based software. Furthermore, NIS plans to rebuild and strengthen its presence in the mobile gaming market.

NIS singled out declining quality and problems pertaining to sales estimates as key factors contributing to its lower than expected performance during the current fiscal year. Instead of the projected 1.79 billion yen ($19.92 million USD), the company reported sales of 1.13 billion yen ($12.57 million USD). Instead of the estimated net profit of 12 million yen ($133,500 USD), NIS suffered a loss of 376 million yen ($4.18 million USD).

Now lets just hope the next Disgaea's sprites actually look better on the PS3. LOL.

Well, it's been awhile since the last Sow Kamishiro NI novel and it's finally out. As always, everyone's free to use these scans as long as you credit me for scanning them.

As for what's going on, I have no clue since I can't read Japanese, but what I do know is that it's not really a Prinny:CIRBtH? novelization. None of the bosses appear Which means no Anise vs Flonne vs Ozonne vs Jane catfight and Laharl is alive and...

Ahem... )

I was just browsing through a couple of sites and I noticed the name Elma being used as the name for Laharl's Mom. Does anyone know where people are suddenly getting the name Elma from cuz as far as I know, she's been known either as Big Sis Prinny, Laharl's Mom, or Mama.

12/26 Makai Senki Disgaea: WAR OF THE PRINNY

Either this will be the light novel-verse's take on Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero, the novel-verse's take on Disgaea Infinite, or something completely different. Regardless, it's been awhile since I've seen a Nippon Ichi light novel (The last one was a light novel based on Rhapsody) or Chou Niku art (Well, minus his latest doujinshi...) so I'm really excited.

I know that La Pucelle: Tactics and Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure takes place in the same world, Homard being Princess Kurusale Cherie Marl Q's son. But does Disgaea have anything to do with that world or is it a separate one?

Two new websites have gone up today on NIS's Japanese website today, as well as there's an update for Hymn Princess of Antiphona.

Disgaea Infinite's website will open on 9/17. I do not know what this is about, although it does show prinny art from the first Disgaea. Hmnn.

Zettai Hero Reconstruction Project's website will also go up on the 17th. Not much here yet.

Hymn Princess of Antiphona's website has topic four up on it's website. It's basically an interview with Miabelle, from what I can tell.

Other than that I'm actually really clueless on what this Disgaea Infinite project is, but here's to hoping it's more than a remake or something. If it has it's own website, it must be something big! ... Something, kinda, sorta. Maybe?

From NeoGaf :

Disgaea Infinite is a visual novel adventure using the gameplay systems from Infinite Loop, but with Disgaea characters and story instead. The new Hero game is the one that has been teased in previous designs, it's a brand new SRPG for the PSP featuring a completely customizable Power Rangers type "hero" character. You can customize his helmet, right arm, left arm feet, and options - just like you would customize a mecha. Options include stuff like wings and stuff. Looks pretty rad.

Edit

Disgaea Infinite scan.

[livejournal.com profile] tastystirfry
Dengeki Online posted an article for ZHRP. The main character (named by the player) is given the transformation belt by a dying man. By wearing it, he'll become the Unstoppable マケレンノジャー.

The game's dungeons are randomly generated each time you enter them. When the player acts, the enemies act, so I think it's like a Mysterious Dungeon-type game?

You'll have to use the different equipment types to get past the various types of dungeons that are generated. You have five slots to change equipment.


Thanks guys!
