What's next for the Senran Kagura series?

Nothing. The latest Rune Factory didn't flop which means Marvelous will just keep making Farm Sims.

Its never truly over.

do you like merchandise and mobile game collabs until something eventually fizzles away? have i got good news for you

>>715477235
They probably had an exclusivity contract with Sony. They produced the second anime for them and Sony has done similar "anime for exclusive game" deals in the past.

Current year Steam will not take an uncompromised Senran Kagura game. Even Gal*Gun isn't feasible for it any more.

>>715477647

So make a game thats more action focused. Easy.

Continued non-existence.

I love how jiggly this animation is.

>>715476527 (OP)
Having never played a single Senran Kagura game, which one should I try out first?

>>715478516

Burst on 3DS or Burst Renewal on PS4.

>>715478516
Burst Renewal

>>715478581
>>715478667
Don't have either system, but at least I can emulate 3DS, I guess. Thanks

>>715477852
At least half the point of Senran Kagura is the lighthearted ecchi, you dumb tripfag. Remove it and it's hardly a Senran game any more.
>>715478581
Ignore this dumb tripfag's advice; if you get Burst ReNewal, get it on PC (Steam), the PS4 version is censored.

>>715478863
Meant for >>715478516

Maybe for you. I like the lore and characters.

First one I started off with was Burst Renewal. It's a remake of the first game so I'd say that's a solid start.

>>715477647
>Current year Steam will not take an uncompromised Senran Kagura game
they took all the others just fine and would have kept doing so, poor cope

>>715477852
Make sure to ignore this ragebaiter faggot.

>>715479125
>>715479249
It's on my wishlist now. Hopefully there's a sale soon

>>715478697
Renewal sucks, stick with the 3ds version

>>715479330
Industry insiders think otherwise. Here's Inti Creates saying Steam is no longer feasible for Gal*Gun despite all the other entries being on there. It's because Steam's policies have become more and more restrictive to Japanese-style games over time. 2025 Steam is not the same as 2018 Steam or even 2021 Steam.

>people on /v/ pretend they play games like Senran Kagura, Atelier, Neptunia, Gal Gun, and gacha for the actual gameplay
Admit it, you play them because you're desperate for fictional tits and ass and are too retarded to realize there are thousands of free h-games available

>>715479465
I regret to inform you there was a major sale that ended a few days ago.

>>715476527 (OP)
A crossover where Ryu Hayabusa takes the Hanzo Academy girls under his wings and Genshin trains the Crimson Squad.

Guaranteed kino.

>>715479758

No, I like the characters. Them being hot is just a bonus.

Why are they in swimsuits if the background implies early spring?

Why is Burst Renewal so expensive?

I can't wait for more Senrans in my Dolphin Wave. I hope it's Ikaruga this time.

Burst renewal is an embarrassment, it seems fine until you learn just how much it fucks up the original game. Even if you look past the obvious flaws, like how every level and animation is ripped straight from EV which was already reusing everything from SV, the much smaller amount of missions, dropping the side scroller gameplay entirely for more versus shit, and the absurd amount of DLC, it even fucks up retelling the original game.
Here's an example: In the original 3DS version, the first level of hanzo chapter 5 is pretty cool. It's the beginning of the end, where the girls are invading hebijo, and the level reflects that. It's a simple level, there's nothing particularly crazy about it gameplay-wise, but the level nails the feel of infiltration by having you as asuka in the middle of the night, running along the school's outer walls, working your way closer by fighting through waves of hebijo students, before a quick final wave when asuka finally enters a room in the school. It's a perfect 10 minute setup for the story's finale.
Burst renewal completely fucks that up by having asuka in a room in the school from the start. That entire build up and the bit of immersion it gives you is just gone, and replaced with a level thats like 2 minutes long max. You don't feel like you're invading the main enemy's base, you're just dropped in after everything else was done off-screen.
Now maybe that doesn't matter to you, and you don't particularly care about the story or how the game conveys it. But i do, that shit adds soul, and BR does not have soul. I could go on about the many similar things it did but I know people will keep playing that version anyway for "accessibility". So just remember that if you played renewal, you haven't actually played burst

How is the Nep x Senran game?

>>715476527 (OP)
Listen. I know I'm supposed to call them Shinobi. Or Kunoichi if they're female. But if Ninja is such a bad word, why do they keep using it? They call themselves Ninja all the time! Ninja this, Ninja that, Ninja technique, Ninja power, Ninja squad. Hide yourself, Ninja. Ninja, check out that jutsu. I heard Asuka say
>can a Ninja borrow a rice ball
And I didn't think
>Oh my gosh, she said that word, the N word...
It was
>How the hell is a ninja going to borrow a rice ball? Ninja, you gonna give it back?

Some collabs with various gatcha games and a new gatcha game of their own.

GIMME SOME GACHA

>>715476527 (OP)
Probably a collab with some gacha game

>>715485879
The mass acceptance and normalization of gacha is the ultimate proof modern gamers are cattle. Even most of the "based" ones, who jerk off chinkslop and gookshit as based and saving gaming from western pozz as they excuse the most predatory service model ever established in gaming. They are ripe for the slaughter. I can only pray Netherlands/EU-style laws eventually spread globally and cut off the revenue of this mobile plague.

>>715486384
whats so bad about gacha? i have never spent a dime on it and i have been playing for over 4 years, it just something i play for 15 mins a day

>>715486384
u sure because im just trying to draw

>>715486534
You're still playing it.
You're still talking about it (shilling it).
You're still giving data to their servers.
You're still passively accepting it.

>>715486924
damn you

>>715486534
Even as a fellow F2P gacha player, I don't think the monetization model of gacha (or all mobile) games is healthy for... anything.
Only being able to stay afloat due to the pockets of a few inordinately high spenders means the financial stability of the games you like are constantly shaky, and content must be designed towards capitalizing on FOMO and difficulty must be tuned for people who can throw more money at a problem rather than git gud.
Such game design has incentivized focusing on ways to psychologically manipulate consumers for the last 15 years rather than making actually good games, because making a good game doesn't make as much profit and that's all a mobile game company cares about. No one makes a mobile game to fulfill their creative vision.

Post Asuka's big fat ass

I fucking LOVE Asuka's voice.
Her voice actress is unironically one of the main reasons I like Asuka despite her being vanilla as fuck.

JP or dub?

>>715488578
This series has a dub?

>>715488619

The anime did.

>>715488454
Yeah, two Mirais in fact. >>715487606

I made it but I guess it's true that Mirai is less popular than other Senran Kagura characters and that Crystar has never been popular (even I admit I haven't played it.

>>715488359
>>715488454
Stream that movie if you’re so great

Merchandise (a new nurse Yumi statue just got announced) and collab fodder (pic related will be announced in a few hours).

>>715488619
The anime does, but not the games.

>>715488619
They dubbed the anime but it was very obviously low budget and terrible (even speaking as a dub enjoyer)

I bought all the games on Steam and just bought the ones on Switch, I did my part, not like anything will ever happen anymore.

>>715489083

Funny hearing Monica Rial as Homura though.

feet

>>715476527 (OP)
It's going to rest for the decade. But honestly I see that as a good thing than a bad. Better to let things rest, than to take it out, censor and do bad things with it.

every time an anon brings up takaki i have to fight the urge to remind them that he left in 2019. he's been uninvolved for six years. just under half of the franchises entire lifespan. what did honey parade do in that time?

>>715489574
If that happens then it will probably be a timeskip sequel with new characters, the end of the gacha already had a prologue suggesting that.

>>715489782
>what did honey parade do in that time?
Shinobi Master until it got EOS'd, and now they keep going with Dolphin Wave.

>>715489883
>prologue
Meant epilogue, of course.

>>715488863
>few hours
It's going to be announced in like 10 hours, hardly a few.

Sometimes I almost feel bad about this franchise being butchered by Sony's politics. Then I just close my eyes and think about how /v/ omegashitposts all the games I like to death and would happily butcher them like Sony did with Senran while yelling "slop!", "slop!"; then those feelings of pity evaporate in an instant.

>>715489883
>>715489943
Release an Imu statue and I'll actually buy it.

>>715490094
That's retarded.

>>715490042
It's still less than a day anon, the point is that this all you're going to get from SK from now on. Best you can do is guess which girl is going to get in the collab and enjoy the new art.

>>715489883

They're not gonna ditch the cast they have. Its bloated enough as is.

>>715489883
>a timeskip sequel with new characters
Is there anything stopping them from leaving those new characters on the side and focusing on the now-adult original cast?

A return from a 15 year hiatus and they're all venus tier milfs.

yumi killed the series

>>715490724
Budget for the seiyuu, I guess.

>>715490525
They may as well just kill it entirely then instead of cockteasing the remaining fans. But then that would be bad PR, wouldn't it? Because they know people still want Senran Kagura, it was their flagship back in the day after all. Faggots! They're clearly enjoying their woman and sodomite audience from pozzed Rune Factory and SoS to the point they think they can take straight males for granted.

There are literal porn games, vn, eroge, that one rape WEG that made the news in some literally who feminist website, if anything their standards have gotten more lax, or maybe they've just gotten more lax since those industry insiders talked about it.
