I was interested until I saw this.

But she's had a lot of time to improve her writing skills since 2007. This will definitely show in Kud Wafter.

wow June that was fast >.> I was expecting more from Rewrite though ^-^"

There was a special live NicoNico broadcast of the Kud Wafter VIP performances of the theme song today:

OP: http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=kJp7fs4l7_g

Live performance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9o1KXlMpIQ

Not particularly a fan of the seiyuu singing the theme song, and of the song itself... but oh well...

[Leo_Otaku]

dude.....

I had to turn done the volume a bit ear piercing 0_0.....much that was bad....

Why does this opening lack creativity completely it doesn't even look or feel KEY....not to mention sound >.>

this seems like a rush project to me....

I agree about the rushed feel to this. I guess Key wanted something to tie us over until Rewrite is released.

The song killed my ears the first time I heard it, but after a while I got used to it. I still don't agree to having Kud's seiyuu doing the theme song though. >.<

Oh and here's the OP vid in HD!

Best to click through and be able to maximise it for full HD glory.

This game seems to be going for the loli appeal. Which is fine, since that's another reason why Kud is so cute!

[boggart]

And here's some in-game footage:

I love A-chan Senpai's and Himuro Yuuki's voices. Also loving the background music. After the disappointment with the OP song, it looks like these are turning it around.

[boggart]

Okay, after watching the in-game footage a few times, I've been convinced to get the game.

I'm feelin you, though I'm not sure about spending ~9000 yen on a game I can't immediately play. Curse my lacking Japanese skills!

I may ignore that policy this once, b/c it's for my #1 waifu.

DO IT!

I caved into the temptation. I was initially not going to buy it, but with the combination of Kud, good music, Rewrite demo, and generally coz its a Key product, it pushed me to purchase. Now I am poor... especially since I added extras (PURE PURE HEART!! and Stereopony's new album) to my order too!

Heck, I already have all the other Key games because of the Memorial Box... maybe I'll get.

edit: Oh yea, it has pr0n. Will wait until a virginity-preserving version comes out.

[Leo_Otaku]

I'm not convinced...I think it is just a cash cow it doesn't even feel like their other games...I'll wait for some reviews.

Coincidentally, it's Kud's birthday today.

Just a random bit of trivia to tie you over until the release of the VN.

Uwooo, I will tuck this piece of information away forever! Must learn more about my waifu(s). Thank you!

It's June 12 down under, right? Don't want to get the wrong date, it's still June 11 over here in PST.

Yup, June 12 is Kud's birthday. As for the year... I have no idea... but if we assume she was 16 (as per story) when the original VN was released in 2007 in which it was set, then it would have to be either 1991 or 1992.

That's half the reason I'm buying it. My Key collection must be complete!

I have no idea when I'll bother playing it though. Still haven't finished a single route in Little Busters, all these years on.

[boggart]

4 days until release! I'm excited about the limited edition merchandise that comes with it though.

1) Rewrite trial version
2) Kud Wafter OST
3) Kud Wafter Official Guidebook
4) Weiβ Schwarz Original card from the Angel Beats! + Kud Wafter set
