NDS OP movie, SYLPH Exhibit, DG Sunder package design

November 17th, 2009

A short version of the opening movie for the NDS Dear Girl ~Stories~ Hibiki – Hibiki Tokkun Daisakusen! game has been posted on the game site’s blog. The opening theme is Netsuai S-O-S! performed by HiroC (Kamiya Hiroshi) and OnoD (Ono Daisuke), written by game director Iwasaki Daisuke. Only one month until release of the game!

DGS Hibiki goods are now available for purchase at Amazon Japan.

From November 24 to December 24, there will be a SYLPH reproduction genga exhibit at the Culture Station Chiba branch of Sanseidou Bookstore in the comics section. (Blog entry here.) At the exhibit, you’ll be able to see reproductions of panel drawings from your favorite series published in SYLPH magazine. It does not say specifically, but one can assume the display will include panels of the Dear Girl ~Stories~ Hibiki comic.

UchiP sent in a couple DG Sunder package design suggestions to Yuraku. The first one is rather normal with a photo of Kamiya and Ono. The second, however… .^^;;; He added “De” into the product name so that it reads “Deburakku” (burakku = black, debu = chubby) and there’s a photo of Chanko chan eating. The catchphrase was changed to “Over 150kg of deliciousness!” HAHAHA!!! Yuraku is still accepting submissions for designs and catchphrases and they hope there will be ones that have a bigger impact than “Deburakku Thunder.”
