New Valkyria Chronicles manga scanlations

FTH has released the scanlation of the second chapter from the second volume of the manga based on Valkyria Chronicles. They also released the scanlation of  chapter 2 and 3 from Battlefield Virelai II (NSFW doujinshi).

It's a Wonderful War.

Hope for an English release of the Valkyria Chronicles 3 Artbook?

Now that the Valkyria Chronicles 2 artbook has been released I decided to go ahead and email UDON about whether or not a release of the VC3 artbook would be possible. Although the response I received was far from a guarantee, it does provide a ray of hope for the fans that would like to see it released in English. UDON is very interested in releasing the VC3 book, but whether or not it will be possible for them to do so is going to depend largely on the sales of the recently released Valkyria Chronicles 2: World Artworks. If sales of the VC2 artbook are much lower than those of the VC1 book then it will be impossible for them to release the VC3 book.

For fans of the series that are unable to read Japanese, this is the perfect opportunity to learn about VC3's story since the artbooks contain a wealth of story information in addition to the breathtaking VC art that we all know and love. An English release of the VC3 artbook would be a huge step toward reigniting the series' weakening fanbase outside of Japan. If the artbook sold well despite the game not being release outside of Japan, it would send a strong message to Sega that they should continue to support the series worldwide. But in order for us to send that message we need UDON to release the VC3. So if you haven't purchased the VC2 artbook yet, please be sure to do so and to spread the word to everyone else. Here is a link to it on Amazon

Valkyria Chronicles 2: World Artworks Shipping Now

Amazon has begun shipping the Valkyria Chronicles 2: World Artworks, so you can start expecting it soon. Just a reminder, even though VC3 was not released outside of Japan it is possible that UDON will release the artbook if the demand is high enough. So if you want to see the VC3 artbook in English, be sure to purchase the first two artbooks if you haven't already.

Valkyria Chronicles 2: World Artworks

This was announced a while back, but I thought it would be good to throw everyone a reminder. UDON Entertainment will be releasing the Valkyria Chronicles 2: World Artworks later this year. Despite several release date delays, they did an excellent job with the first Valkyria Chronicles artbook. So if you're a fan of RAITA's art or just want to see behind the scenes details about the series, it would definitely be a good idea to pick this up.

Pre-orders are open on Amazon, so if you're thinking about buying it I would highly recommend that you pre-order, not just because it is beneficial to the publisher but also because you'll be able to save some money. I pre-ordered the first artbook about a year before it was released (due to all of the delays) and thanks to Amazon's pre-order price guarantee, by the time it was released I ended up paying much less for it than its final price. So if you're interested in pre-ordering, click here to be taken to the Amazon product page.

Something else to keep in mind about these artbooks is that even though VC3 has yet to be released outside of Japan, if we show UDON through the sales of the artbooks that we would like to see the VC3 artbook as well, we may have a chance at getting them to release that too. So if you want to see the VC3 artbook in English at some point, make sure to purchase the VC1 book if you haven't already and pre-order VC2's!

First we have finally a preview of Senjou no Valkyria 3 Complete Works (November 24 on sale). Click on every image to enlarge.

Very interesting to take a look tat Raita's original design for Imca with short hair, also early designs for Amy and Leila can be seen in the preview pages too.

Next it's the first official image in colour of the new Selvaria figura based on a new original design by Raita.

Manufacturer: ALTER

Scale:1/7

Size: 290mm (with shower)

Model Production: Toshiyuki Yagyu

Original Idea: Raita Honjou

Release date: April 2012　

Price: TBA

The figure will be present on November 23 in the Megahobby  EXPO2011 AUTUMN event.

Personally I'm not a big fan of this figure, even if I love Selvaria, this looks to me like a wasted opportunity, there is so much potential in the Valkyria universe for great figures, anyway, the figure it's cool, don't get me wrong.

The Last bit of new it's the cover and small preview of the first volume of the Senjou no Valkyria 3 manga (already on sale).
