It seems that a user on NeoGaf has noticed that XSEED is now listed in the registry on Steam. It also seems like XSEED Games will be making an announcement tomorrow. Thanks to crimsonheadGCN on NeoGaf for the above screenshot.

Are these related? Who knows!

I have not followed data much on Ys Online since it was blocked from people outside of Japan to know if it was still functional, but the email does not seem to imply that it will be transfering. They only speak of Shin Sangoku Musou Online. But if it is functional and you still have an account and somehow still play, and the transfer is going through- you will want to have your account transferred to Weeple.

I’m unable to research any further information because the Weeple website is not functional as of this time. I’ll try in the morning and see about editing the post if I can find out anything more.

There is a new Livestream broadcast coming up soon. The Trails in the Sky OAVs will both be live streamed on NicoDouga on 2/17 at 25:30, Japan time. (Yes. 25:30. aka, 1:30am on 2/18.)

I can’t find anything that prevents me from watching it, region-wise, so it may not be blocked to users outside of Japan this time around.

This will run on 2/17 at 11:30am Eastern Time for those in the US. If you wish to convert to your local timezone, please see this link.

This appears that it will be a broadcast of both episodes 1 and 2, so this will be your opportunity to see episode 2 before its release date on 2/24.

The doors will open at 25:20 Japan time, 10 minutes before the event actually begins. I don’t have an estimation as to how long it will last. Probably around 2 hours, as each OAV is 40-something minutes long.

What do you do if you don’t have a nicodouga account? Well, thankfully, I have an article that links some information on what to do regarding such a dilemma.

SPOILER NOTE:
These OAV’s follow the second game, Second Chapter. If you have only played the first game and do not want to spoil yourselves, you may want to refrain from watching.
