Valkyria Chronicles 4 Completed! And Possible Localization Trivia Plans

This is just a milestone post on completing the latest game in one of my favorite series to 100%.

It took about 67 hours!

But for this blog, there was a ton of stuff going on between the original and the localization. From western movie references in the English version to all sorts of memes and trope names here and there (from arrow to the knee to Xanatos Gambit), I’m not actually sure where to begin on writing articles.

For other players who have played the game, though, feel free to leave a request of what interested you in English that you couldn’t help but wonder, “Just what was that in Japanese?”

I’ll bet it was changed quite a bit, as I observed listening in both languages. Still, it should be fun to look into.

I may also consider writing guides, such as a medal guide, or other tidbits people may find useful here and there.

Latest Valkyria game announced! “Valkyria: Azure Revolution”

This is just a preview scan from Famitsu. Actual high res scans will be up tomorrow!

Famitsu has revealed the latest game in the Senjou no Valkyria (Valkyria Chronicles in the west), 蒼き革命のヴァルキュリア (Aoki Kakumei no Valkyria lit: “Valkyria of the Blue Revolution”).

Famitsu will release in about twelve hours for now digitally, where I hope to translate the latest information on the game here!

Along with that, Gematsu already has tidbits translated (from other Japanese sites such as Hachima) for those who are interested. A Valkyria Chronicles remaster (originally a PS3 game) will be coming to PS4 as well on February 10th in Japan, though no information in the west.
