Brian's VA is Ryota Osaka; helper charas Gerard & Silvan intros; Kotaku feature on Angelique
Updates at the Retour site:
- Brian's VA has been announced as Ryota Osaka. Looking at his work history, he's had a lot of minor roles in things or larger roles in minor things but nothing major so far. Correct me if I'm wrong on this.
- Ange & Rosalia's two helper characters have been introduced: the cheerful Gerard, who apparently encourages your romances, and the serious Silvan, who wants you to concentrate more on becoming Queen. Silvan looks like a weirdo with that monocle. Here are profiles:
Butler in the service of the Queen Candidates
GERARD
"Ciao! Thanks for choosing me! From now on, I'm going to fill your days with fun and lots of love~!"
Silvan's older twin brother; cute, looks just like a girl. Bright & chipper; cheers on romances. Wants to fill the days of the Queen Candidate he serves with love.
Butler in the service of the Queen Candidates
SILVAN
"I shall make the Queen Candidate I serve a great Queen in the annals of history. I will be cracking the whip starting tomorrow. I will show no mercy. Prepare yourself."
[Translator note: Shut up, junior. The future ruler of the universe isn't taking orders from someone who can't even tie their shoelaces. Go take your juice box & go watch Spongebob.]
Butler serving the Queen Candidates; Gerard's younger twin brother. Painfully serious, with a strong sense of duty & responsibility; works hard to make the Queen Candidate he serves a "great Queen." Always wears a monocle decorated with stars.
Gerard's words and the phrasing of the profiles ("in service of the Queen Candidate," not "in service of Angelique" or "in service of Rosalia") suggest that you can choose your butler, but I dunno - they're pretty color- and personality-coordinated to certain candidates.
- There's a glamour shot of Randy in the gallery of him actually looking kinda-sorta vaguely Randyish for the first time in the promo stuff for this game. Maybe because he's in a dynamic pose instead just standing around OOC-ly in soft poses with soft hair. (Speaking of which, kathisofy has an interesting theory on why Randy looks odd that you should read if you haven't already.)
- Sample photos of the character swings & design collection book have been added to the product info.
Also, Kotaku has a feature on Angelique's founding role in the otome game genre. It's basically swiped from a Famitsu interview with Ruby Party that was taken from the weekly magazine, but the interview contains some interesting bits on the original game's development. Amazingly, the comments are not a nightmare (yet).
