Sega Games is currently exhibiting at the Tokyo Game Show 2019, which is being held from September 12 to 14. The company has released a "Story Trailer" and a "Game Trailer" at the show.


In the story trailer, you can see the "Kagekidan War," in which Kagekidan from all over the world gather to fight for the championship, the new Berlin Kagekidan, the mysterious enemy Yasha, and other details related to the worldview and characters.


The game trailer, on the other hand, focuses on the game's systems. It explains the adventure part, in which you can interact with members of the Kagekidan and explore the Imperial Capital, and the battle part, which is characterized by action using the "Quantum Fighter". In particular, the battle part, which has changed from the standard turn-based simulation to real-time action, is a must-see.


In conjunction with this release, the details of the Hakurin Kagekidan members and their enemies, such as the Yasha, were also revealed. Please check them out along with comments from Fumikane Shimada, the character designer of the Hakurin Kagekidan, and Tomosa Yokoyama, who plays the role of Yasha.

Comments】 ※Titles omitted
Character design by Fumikane Shimada for "Hakurin Kagekidan Schwarzstern


It is a strange feeling to participate in the "Sakura Wars" series as one of the designers, having played the series as a user. I was nervous about having my own artwork in the series, but I had already seen Mr. Kubo's main characters, whose images had been completely renewed, so I was able to add my own color without being too self-conscious. I hope that the Hakurin Kagekidan will be loved by players.

The character design is by none other than this person when it comes to "military + girls! We asked Mr. Fumikane Shimada to design the characters. We hope you will enjoy the charm of the characters as only Mr. Shimada can.
