Thank you all for your patience! We've got an extra-long newsletter this time, including some key announcements from September mentioned at the top of the post. The Disgaea 7 collector's edition is gorgeous, and the Mad Rat Dead pins are very stylish - strongly recommend giving them a look!

And that's the past two weeks in review, thank you for your patience! NIS has finally made their big announcement for the seventh Disgaea game, and it boasts a whopping forty-five generic units, a notable jump up from the previous iteration's somewhat lacking generic roster. (Presumably, many were cut due to it being their first step into 3D.)

      Promotional art for a mobile minigame made for the upcoming Yomawari 3. It depicts the protagonist with an expression of fear as she shines a flashlight on a faceless monster with many tentacles.

    • In promotion of the upcoming Yomawari 3 release in Japan, NIS has collaborated with [twitter.com profile] death_co_jp to create a mobile minigame: Search for Mugi who has disappeared into the streets at night! Playable on both Android and iPhone, this minigame also features sound.
      • You're given two minutes with which to find Mugi, the protagonist's little white cat. You can scroll along your phone's screen to navigate the map, and once you find Mugi you simply need to tap on them to win. The option at the bottom of the screen lets you cover your eyes to hide from the spirits and monsters wandering the streets, as gazing upon them will shorten the time available to you. Lingering too long or being caught means death.
        • Depending on your time when you find Mugi, you'll get different art at the end. Those who find Mugi within 15 seconds will be placed in a lottery for a chance to win artwork. (Japan residents only.)
      • The next stream of Leisurely Nippon Ichi episode 71 is announced to air on 4/14. Similar to the previous episode, this one is set to be a special for Yomawari 3, just before its release in Japan. [Info (JP) | YouTube | NicoVideo]
