Dude the cover art is just a picture of a chick with boobs bigger then basketballs and an upskirt shot. With a cover like that you would expect it to be a dating sim or a sex game but the trailer didn't make that distinction at all. That cover art is far more distracting then actually making me want to buy the game.

Well, dude, did you like what you saw in the trailer? You know what they say....don't judge a game by its cover.

Also, in my personal opinion that cover is hilarious! it would definitely make stop at the game store to pick up the game and see what it is.

I really wanted to get into Occultic;Nine so many times, either from the novel, anime or game, but I just can't take seriously how they market the series: with that woman who has huge breasts.

The game looks really nice, but I'm not picking it up due to blatant fanservice.

The tits here are hilariously proportioned. I've seriously never seen a video game on a shelf (not visual Nov or anything) that looks so stupidly blatant. I don't think being curious or wanting a chuckle necessarily makes me "immature" mister hoity toity pants.

Also, "Damnit Japan" at some T&A? In my personal opinion that's a pretty immature response. Where do you think you are Wink

I loved the anime, and I want to get my hands on the LNs.. but the cover image for the game..

Ryoka's character was funny and she does end up being pretty important, so I can see why they used her... But just her? Why not add Gamon too? Or have most/all the characters?

To be honest, I'd rather stare at Moritsuka, the Otaku Detective instead.

I want this game though. Think it has one of those flip covers? >w>,

I don't think I have so much space for these boobies in my room.

Came here expecting comments about boobs. Wasn't disappointed.

LOL at the CERO D rating. Effectively it's akin to the ESRB's Mature 17+ rating.

It's probably just for her breasts.

Sometimes I wish I could just call up Japan(or the creators of certain anime/manga) and ask them why they make it a weird habit of putting overly large breast on small girls. Or rail thin women. The only way her proportions would've looked right is if she were fat. But she's not and she looks stupid. Confused

The cover is sorta hilarious, because her assets are made to be somewhat visually distracting. I'm not sure how it'll work in the game, but in the anime there are a lot of visual hints you'd miss if you paid too much attention to the characters and not the whole scene. Still, I do hope there's a reversible cover or that the US release (hopefully) has a different one.

I'm sure people will play this for the plot.

Must not like a whole lot of movies, tv shows, books, or video games if your contempt is that great.

Dude, are you Me. Everything about what you said I agree with (especially about my boy Moritsuka)
(though Gamon is on the cover. he's just behind Ryotasu and hard to see. still, there's so many group pictures I don't get why they could've used a more generic but appealing group shot)

I wouldn't mind getting the game but jee I don't really want to get the physical release with Ryotasu's boobs on the cover
i mean, I like Ryotasu but man, I don't really like her boobs

spoiler[probably more for the elements like people getting scalped or killed and stuffed in boxes]
I don't know if there's actually much fanservice in it outside of boob size + jiggling. Like, I don't know if Ryotasu wears anything skimpy or gets a naked scene or something (she didn't in the anime far as I recall)

In my opinion, choose the novels. Seriously.
Forget about the marketing. All of its weirdness, which include Ryoka's breasts, are actually red herrings for all the mystery.
