Latest Updates from Our Project:

ENGLISH DUB STRETCH GOAL!
almost 8 years ago – Sat, Sep 01, 2018 at 01:43:39 PM

Let's cut right to the chase: after much investigation and deliberation, we can announce the details of our stretch goal for an English dub of Grisaia: Phantom Trigger The Animation!

As the image indicates, we just need a little more funding beyond the main goal to make this happen, OR a handful of new backers supporting the project. We're very confident about the possibility of making this happen, so please spread the word and tell your friends! Again, even if the stretch goal is not met during the campaign itself, we fully expect to raise the difference in BackerKit, so we encourage you to remain steadfast in your pledges. 

We'll continue to keep you updated throughout the last five days of the campaign as to how likely we feel hitting the goal is. Feel free to leave comments if you have any questions about the dub or the stretch goal. Let's make this happen!

Lastly, we wanted to take a minute and share a message from our pals at Mangagamer: their new title, "Koropokkur In Love" is launching on Steam on September 27! Check it out and add it to your wishlist if you're down for some lighthearted romantic VN fun!

TOKYO CHRONOS is a VR visual novel that brings together some of the leading veterans in the gaming and anime industry. Helmed by producer Kazuma Miki, producer on Sword Art Online, the developer is breaking new ground in bringing the world of visual novels to VR but they need your help as well to make this happen!

When, and why, have we become separated?
A group of eight childhood friends --
The time has come for the truth to be revealed.
Trapped in an empty, deserted Shibuya where time has frozen over.
A strange world where the eight disappear one by one.
 -- I am dead. Who killed me?

New reward tier - signed original CG sketches! Plus updates on in-anime credits, stretch goals, and the campaign in general.
almost 8 years ago – Fri, Aug 31, 2018 at 08:55:06 AM

Hello, everyone! We apologize for the lack of updates recently for the project; we'll elaborate on that a little later in the update, but first, let's take care of the bigger news.

Our first announcement today is the addition of a new reward tier! Take a look:

That's right, this is a chance to get one of the original pencil sketch drawings by Akio Watanabe from the creation of the Grisaia: Phantom Trigger game series! Please note that while we cannot guarantee which sketch you will receive, you will be able to set a first, second, and third character preference in BackerKit. Take a look below to see a selection of what'll be available!

Next up, an update regarding the "name in credits" reward. While we were originally informed that there was a strict limit on the number of slots we could offer, we've received updated information, and we can announce that every backer at the $149 tier or above will have their name in the credits! We unfortunately can't edit the item lists for the reward tiers themselves, but we've added a note mentioning this to the main campaign page.

Now, let's take a few moments to talk candidly about the state of the campaign in general, including our still-unannounced stretch goals.

While we didn't anticipate beforehand that so many fans would be so passionate about including an English dub for the Phantom Trigger anime adaptation, we certainly heard those voices, and have been exploring multiple options for making it happen, and what amount we would need to set a stretch goal at. Unfortunately, despite reaching out directly to a number of US-based English anime distributors, most have not responded to our outreach. We will of course continue to explore all angles ourselves, but we encourage anyone and everyone interested in an English dub to reach out yourselves and recommend the Phantom Trigger anime adaptation for licensing - a strong community voice may be just what we need to make things happen.

With just over two weeks left in the 60-day campaign, this may seem to some of you like "too little, too late", and we certainly understand that sentiment. We've come to realize that a number of missteps were made in the preparation of this campaign, thanks to various factors, including a certain level of complacence in the results of our previous campaigns. We plan to redouble our efforts on community outreach and campaign updates, and still feel confident we can succeed in making this campaign one that deserves to meet its goal.

As always, thank you for all of your support, including - and especially- holding us to the standards you've come to expect from us. We look forward to making this project a success, together!

(Almost) 70% funded! New reward tier, cast comments, and more!
almost 8 years ago – Fri, Aug 31, 2018 at 08:54:54 AM

Thank you very much to all of our backers for your continued support! With your help, the campaign is now just a hair shy of 70% funded!

We're still hard at work on updates to bring you throughout the remainder of the campaign, and we have a few to share with you today!

First up: due to popular demand, we've added the digital-only $30 Incoming Transmission tier! If you want to support the anime, but our physical tiers are a bit too rich for your blood, this is the perfect way to get your feet wet.

And if you decide you want to make things physical later? No problem! The following add-ons will be available via BackerKit after the campaign ends - this list has been added to the campaign page too.

Lastly, we wanted to let you know that starting today, we'll be sharing some comments from the anime's voice cast! They'll be posted daily on our Facebook and Twitter pages, with the first one going up just a couple hours from now, so be sure to check them out!

We're entering the last ten days of the campaign, and there's still a little way to go before we hit our goal, but we remain confident that with your support, we can make it happen! Let's keep the momentum going!

Storyboard sneak peek & new reward for all tiers!
almost 8 years ago – Sun, Aug 19, 2018 at 11:38:12 AM

Greetings, backers! We're about a month away from the end of the campaign, and we're just a hair shy of 60% funded!

We have a nice look behind the scenes to share with you today, along with an announcement that should prove exciting: anyone who backs the campaign at any reward tier will receive a special, crowdfunding-exclusive booklet featuring storyboard images, character sketches, and more! A selection of storyboard images have been added to the campaign page, and you can also check them out below.
