What?!
I'm so psyched! Especially more enthustiastic about Hakuoki coming (the drama)! And thankfully for the PSP because I no longer have any playstation in my possesion! Starry Sky, Fate/Extra and Hakuoki are definitely games i'm buying next year and hopefully it'll be popular enough that it'll help bring more Otome games to the US.

Hopefully these months go by fast!

I hope if this turns out well, they can bring more games to the US 8DD

According to the report on Anime News Network, it seems that JAST is still considering a possible localization of the Starry Sky visual novels and drama CDs. It's stated in an article at http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/20 ... ky-project that the company is "...looking into the process of licensing..." this franchise.

Therefore, if you're interested in buying official translations of Starry Sky, then I highly recommend sending a polite message to the JAST staff. And be sure to participate on their forums. If the company believes that fans will buy a boxed copy, or pay for a download, then they will have more incentive to pursue this license.

I've already spent hundreds buying the games in Japanese. ): I'm going to end up with 2 versions of each game?? Haha. I'm glad they're bringing this over, though.

I would by starry sky just because the art is preeeeety~ And apparently most games are not regionalised like the used to be. Why did no one tell me >:( I could have been playing American games I couldn't get here. Woot.

OH MY FREAKING GOD!!!!!
My stress decreases by a lot of numbers, I wouldn't be too surprised if my sore eyes disappears in a few minutes.

OMG!! *Starts saving money to buy this game when it releases*

Finally they're going where the money is... Teenage fangirls.

I think people sometimes underestimate this market, but teenage girls are, by far, the most fanatical demographic out of everyone. Anyone seen a Justin Bieber concert? That stuff is just scary.

It can't compare to those Twilight premieres, I attended one with my cousin and I really wanted to run out of the theater because the fangirls are freaking me out. o_O

Off topic of Starry Sky, but, whoever gets their act together and gets the Heart no Kuni Alice games translated will be rich beyond their belief. Alice in wonderland is really popular lately ontop of anime and otome games. It also has a dark violent theme to it, like soft horror- I haven't met a teenage girl who doesn't like soft horror. Even I would buy that game, and I actually don't care much for otome games.
