So anyway, wanna know why the Big Bad of SW 5 attacked New York? The same reason Tokyo and Paris was attacked in SW 1 & 2 (for Tokyo) 3 (Paris) and 4 (Tokyo again, since the Paris team moved to Japan to team up with the original team) The cities have this plebotinum thing under them.
Rachet was the blond with the nice suit, right? Her two former teammates debuted in the 2nd game.
I know it via the Sakura Wars Let's Play I mentioned... 10 US$ to access the forums, seriously? That's roughly 100.000 Rupiahs in Indonesia!
Bah, doesn't matter. I heard Sega is rebooting the franchise, is that true?

Where'd you hear that?

There was that browser based thing a year or so back but I haven't heard anything else. It doesn't help that RED was bought by some Chinese company.

Okay, I think I just derped; I meant to say I read it on a local game magazine. Sorry, dunno why I typed that.
Still, the only image I remember regarding that was this chick/dude who looks like a lady with white hair on a forest area. That's it.
Let's talk something else; Sakura Taisen characters in Project X Zone! What do ya think?

Eh. Neutral. I guess it's good for getting the series more exposure, but I dunno if it'll sell enough to where it'd matter.
x5 Paris in ST 3 at least had the advantage of being attacked by a native malignant power, the vengeful spirits of the Parisii or something (been a while since I've played). Oda Nobunaga attacking New York just came across as a bit weird.

I don't know if Project X Zone will get much notice. The demo was amusing, and the game will be officially released in North America in a couple days (two weeks before Europe and Australia). Maybe it will bring an example or two of Marth Debuted in "Smash Bros.".
Aside from the browser game, there's been just a few other professionally made Sakura Wars properties in the recent past. The Hanadegumi manga is a gender flip with an all-new cast, with three volumes written so far (just two scanlated chapters though). Red Entertainment made two similar games (Scared Rider Zechs and its sequel) that are gender flips, but I don't know if they were considered successful on PS2 or PSP.
Current fan efforts include the Facebook campaign Kiss Me Sweet
and a planned similar freeware game called Memories Neverlasting. There were plans to fan translate a Windows version of Sakura Wars 1, but it seems to have died quietly.
Too bad; guess we have another Shenmue...
Whoa, a Shenmue-Sakura Taisen crossover...

If you don't want me to talk about the comparison between SW 5 and FFXIII, then I'll just give this a picture. This is my final post on this topic.

Somehow I doubt that.

Well, what do you think about that?

Sakura Taisen.
I never played the games but actually read the translations because I love the animated characters so much. They're my favorite of all dating simulators because steampunk + mecha + samurai girls is just awesome.
I'm also old enough that I'm not embarrassed this was a thing for me in my high school years.

What exactly are these games like? I only know of them from Project X Zone.
Magical Girl in Training
They're basically SRP Gs with a mix of Visual Novel/Dating Sims.
To be more specific, you start with the latter, then move on to the former. How you handle character relationships in the V Ns is crucial to making the SRPG part easier.

Touch The Sky
Oh, that sounds cool.
Magical Girl in Training
It is VERY cool. We did get one game brought over and translated on the PS 2. Its the fifth installment in the series, but save for a couple very early game cameos it stands on its own plotwise.
I'd suggest picking it up if you can find it. It goes for around twenty bucks to boot.
