In case you haven't seen, as is tradition, S;G RE:BOOT is lacking in a few areas—untranslated images, technical flaws, and a few text errors. A patch is coming.
Hopefully it shouldn't take long, but LCCs remain our current priority (and are nearing completion)!
Stay tuned!
Imai Asami discussed her experiences rerecording for STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT as Makise Kurisu.
Instead of just recreating her original performance, she voiced Kurisu based on her deepened understanding of the character that she voiced for 17 years.
When Imai originally voiced her, she didn't fully grasp the overall storyline of STEINS;GATE and admitted the script was difficult especially since she was given only scenes where Kurisu appears. She felt a lot of pressure having to portray Kurisu, who was a genius that understood various theories and used a lot of technical terms.
She specifically recalled the lecture scene at the beginning of the game. At that time, Imai looked up the meanings of various terms in a desperate attempt to act as if she knew everything. She also wanted to make sure it was a scene that players don't skip over because her portrayal was too boring.
Now with RE:BOOT, Imai felt more confident portraying the genius side of Kurisu. Instead of simply explaining complex stuff, she can now properly convey the feelings of a genius scientist based on her own understandings.
When rerecording, Imai struggled on whether to portray the original Kurisu, or a Kurisu culminated from 17 years of experience. Ultimately, she chose the latter.
She also discussed how in the original STEINS;GATE, the cast members recorded their lines individually without knowing each other's performances. This time, because they worked on this series together for so many years, Imai can record these lines while perfectly imagining the voices of the other cast. Because of that, Kurisu's exchanges with Okabe Rintarou have now synced to an entirely new level.
For Imai, RE:BOOT is not just a rerecording of the same story, but a work that reflects the deep understanding the cast has cultivated over the past 17 years.

HazeDenki's visual novel "Sister Other Paranoia" has released in English, Japanese, and Chinese by Serenity Forge.
The game is developed by nyalra and the team behind "NEEDY GIRL OVERDOSE."
Story: “Onii-chan, you really are a lonely person.” “Did you lose faith in me?” “No. I love you, onii-chan.”
Unable to bear the ugliness of the world and terrified of other people, the protagonist develops the ability to read minds.
He shuts himself away and submits a light novel he wrote, which unexpectedly wins a newcomer’s award. But the jealousy and envy that follow only deepen his distrust of the few human relationships he still has. Those around him hurt his fragile heart without even realizing it.
His only remaining comfort is his younger sister, who lives with him. Clinging to each other just to stay alive, the two sink night after night into a twisted, unhealthy codependency.

Leading up to the release of our full DDD translation, planned for mid-August, I’m starting a thread here that I’ll be updating around this time each day.
As DDD is perhaps one of the most obscure—and misunderstood—entries in TYPE-MOON's catalog, my goal is to help people get better informed, spark some interest, and create a clear, easily shareable resource for anyone curious about the series.
Over the coming days, this thread will cover three main areas:
• Introductions: Background context, publication history, and a narrative sell.
• Character Profiles: Non-spoiler overviews of the main cast.
• Trivia: Cool tidbits and some connections with other TM titles.
Bookmark this post to follow along as I update it daily, and feel free to pass it along to anyone who might be interested!
