The more I browse Internet sites in search of gaming and loli enlightenment, the more jealous I get. Really, all those wonderful Japanese games that are constantly being released make me cry a little inside and make me curse the fact that big badass publishers are refusing, on a daily basis, to release most of the said games in Europe. Or, if they somehow, by unknown and unforetold means, do it, it happens years after the game came out. But enough ranting.

Platinum Games (a studio formed in 2007, after the merging of ODD and Seeds) and Sega are planning yet another role-playing title for the Nintendo DS, namely Mugen Kouro - Infinite Space, which will supposedly find its way into stores somewhere next spring. For the game to be a big hit or, most likely, for the audience to know what the hell they are buying, the ladies at GONZO and Production I.G. will be working their asses, producing short animation movies to promote this sci-fi space butt-spanking experience. The first movie will premiere at Tokyo Game Show (yet another space-time continuum that we will be unable to attend, due to financial issues) on October 9, while the official game site will air it starting October 17.


While the game's story is quite a simple one, a Mass Effect-ish space saga, featuring a dude named Yuri and his quest to wipe the universe clean of all the renegade non-loli lovers, we are, for the moment, more interested in the visual quality of the movies. You know, since they are made by GONZO and the likes. Also, for those interested, there are some game screenshots over at IGN.
