Characters all look great.

I wonder if I can get my friends to get as excited as I am. I'm sure the names mean nothing to them but if I say creators of GARcher, Baccano! and Puella Magi, maybe they'll understand.

When does this game come out?

Whoa, what is this? I can't believe I didn't know this news.

Gen, Nasu and Narita around a table, roleplaying? I do think the universe just imploded on itself. Being an avid tabletop guy too, this is some pretty epic news to me.

This is to hoping their campaign bears a lot of good fruit. Can't wait to see the results!

Hmm looks like a great time to me. Hope it gets translated.

Nasu is involved = I am incredibly interested

This seems awesome, especially Nasu's and Gen's characters

I'm not one to be excited about a tabletop RPG session, but with Nasu and Urobuchi involved, this HAS to be epic.

Am I the only one who is more concerned about an original soundtrack Sakimoto's composing just for a RPG session?

No, you're not alone.

Using music in RPG sessions is a common sense. Since the characters are all original, it's only natural the music is original as well.

Well then, maybe I wasn't clear (I wasn't anyway). What matters for me here is Sakimoto's score. I could care less about the rest of the news.

A robot in a top-hat? Classy as always. I'm barely interested in Nasu and I couldn't begin to care about the two no-names and their characters, but I just can't imagine Narita and Urobochi getting together and producing anything but solid fucking gold.
I hope I can get something out of this with roughly zero table-top RPG knowledge.

EDIT: Turns out Kougyoku Izuki wrote a LN I've been meaning to read. As long as her character's more interesting on the inside than the outside, I should have more to look forward to now.

Oh my god Urobuchi Gen & Narita are going to be in it.

Let the trolling begin~

But srsly. I'm really looking foreword to it.

How nice. I wish I can continue my diceless campaign when I feel like it, too. Maybe, I'll look forward to their roleplaying sessions.
