Miracle Girls Festival

Sega has announced Miracle Girls Festival, a tentatively titled PS Vita rhythm game that brings together the girls from a number of different anime, due out this winter in Japan.

The game’s rhythm parts use the same engine as Sega’s Project Diva games. Players will press the Circle, X, Triangle, and Square buttons in combination with the d-pad to match the on-screen indications.

    Header says Magical Girls, article says Miracle Girls… Make up your mind!

      *whistle whistle*

  • DesmaX

    That almost make too much sense

  • desponent

    They sure know how to capitalize the market, and it’s good.

  • max

    do want

  • SiXXXtySiXXX

    I feel like the Vita has now peaked as the ultimate weeaboo machine.

    • Cecil Strider

      Yeah… it’s amazing isn’t it :D

    • CirnoTheStrongest

      Nah, it’s just getting started :D

    • fireemblembeast

      I knew this would eventually happen. All according to plan >:3
      Take that, Vita haters

  • Yuan

    They even managed to avoid being leaked by not putting the article in latest Famitsu. Ha ha

  • http://www.craneanime.com Raizu

    Nuooooooooo…..
    This can’t be happening…. My wallet is seriously on danger.

  • Cecil Strider

    I don’t know any of those animes, except for 575, but i love the Project Diva games. I’ll be watching this one :)

    • dark-kyon

      I have see myself seven of these and know nine of these shows,engaged and arpegio are the better shows and yuru yuri first season is a solid show also.

  • Yuzuki Yukari

    Oh wow they didn’t even bother changing the PJD icons www

    I’m not really familiar with most of the listed series but I might still import if it’s good enough

  • Wolf Star

    Good to go!’ :3 now we need sega to localize it..

    • dark-kyon

      Thank good this is import friendly,at difference of Go! Go! 575.

  • novurdim

    GOTY. I WANT IT NOW.

  • Komi

    Nice, Kinmoza finally in a videogame

  • Manny Being Manny

    With Project Diva doing well in the West and Sega localizing Dengeki Bunko, this has to have a chance for a localization right?

    • Jesse

      Probably depends on how spread out the licenses are.

      Aside from Go! Go! 575, which is under Sega, I don’t know if the others have an easy way to lump them together, like with say Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax(Dengeki Bunko), Aquapazza(Aquaplus) and Jump Stars Victory Vs.(the Jump Magazines).

  • TheDevil

    Where’s Akari though?

  • DukeMagus

    If they manage to put someone from kantai collection, it’ll sell like hotcakes

  • MyBodyIsReady

    The anime stuff is completely lost on me, but I enjoyed Project Diva a lot so count me in

  • oblistar

    inb4 Hanayamata dlc~

    • シカチュウ

      Bumco has that license though (._. )

      but that list made me want the game already

      • Cael

        >Bumco has that license though (._. )
        Awww… that makes me sad. Would have fit SO good.

  • HitagiHanekawa

    Akarin~!

  • rekka_zan

    Ooh, it got Vividred! I like Vividred.
    I wonder if it’ll have Madoka or Strike Witches, that’d be nice too.

    • Taedirk

      Oh snap, we finally found the one person who liked Vividred.

    • https://twitter.com/LeFORCIER Marks

      I like Vividred too! But with Madoka it would be even better.

      • rekka_zan

        yay! *highfive* #TeamWakaba

  • Ris

    omg Yuru Yuri DDDD::
    oh Nyaruko’s in there too lol

  • http://waifubartending.com Kiririn51

    oh my god i need this in my life for yuru yuri alone

  • Cazar

    Looks cool. Too bad I’ve never seen any of those anime.

  • klkAlexar

    I haven’t seen any of those shows. Anyway, where’s my miracle boys?!?!

    • http://resettears.wordpress.com/ Reset Tears

      Suddenly wondering if there was ever an Uta no Prince-sama rhythm game made…

      • klkAlexar

        Actually yes, the music games. Music 3 is being made for the vita.

        • http://resettears.wordpress.com/ Reset Tears

          Looked up a gameplay video for Music 2… I’m kind of bummed; it looks really boring! It’s just music sheets on the screen and hitting a button when the line passes by it. T_T
          (Hopefully the Vita game will have a budget?)

          • klkAlexar

            Doubt it since they still sell even with a low budget.

    Shit I suck at rhyme games, but maybe I shall get it lol

  • AkumaSoul

    Shit Sega! Nice job wasting a chance and time on another shitty rhythm game.

    • Shippoyasha

      Sega does godlike rhythm games thanks to their experience with Vocaloid. I do hope they try other genres too, but they will do a great job if it’s a rhythm game.

    • James Reilly

      Not my problem you don’t like rhythm. Sega does these games right.

  • chroma816

    Might really have to import this.

  • Manny Being Manny

    Now we just need Bamco to do the Love Live/Idolmaster/Aikatsu/Pripara crossover idol game

  • I-e-on

    Love the copy paste buttons from project diva. Although I’m certainly interested in this odd mash up…

  • Sinon

    GOTY

  • The Troubadour

    Shit incoming.

    • Cazar

      Great first comment.

  • Shippoyasha

    A lot of really fun slice of life comedies there. I am a fan of all those shows and it is crazy that they are finally getting a game cameo like this.

    Extremely happy Yuru Yuri actually gets a game. I hope they have some of the comedy and character charm of these characters outside just the dancing parts.

  • Nightcore34

    Nice, seems like a good idea, combining rhythm games with some good shows. Also it mentions that it’s got the same engine as project diva so hopefully i’ll enjoy the game as much as the diva series.

  • Firion Hope

    Sold

  • Boldmonk

    YES!!!

  • fireemblembeast

    Yuru Yuri? Kiniro Mosaic? Arpeggio of Blue Steel? Mikakunin de Shinkoukei? Other anime I’ll eventually check out? Plays like PDF?! Sold :o

  • Kayseur

    I don’t even have words for how surprised and happy I am.
    Are those series’ light novels/mangas all from the same publisher? If not, I hope they can put some AKB0048 / imas / love live in as well, seeing they do have WUG.

  • TwoKF

    Between this and P4DAN, my Vita’s going to be seeing a lot of rhythm games soon.

  • Nerroth

    I wonder if this might also include the GochiUsa cast?

    • ThePringus

      It does

  • Nitraion

    Holy shit that list have a lot anime that i watch really… :O

  • phayroent

    Meanwhile, Yakuza Vita keeps dissipating into vaporware.

    • Budgiecat

      Was there ever really an announcement for that officially? because all I know is there’s a Yakuza Zero app for Vita which is small but cool and its free

      • TwinBuns

        Yakuza 4 was allegedly ported to Vita as a proof of concept as part of developer interviews/statements around the time Vita came out. These things usually don’t amount to anything but there is a tiny possibility.

  • SatsukiYumizuka

    This seems random as heck, are all series from the same publisher or what? I’ve only know about two these shows too…oh well would get it just for Cthuko and Akari.

  • Articuno76

    I don’t think I’ve heard of a single one of those series. Not a single one.

    • Dragonslayer_023

      Casual detected.

    • Elle

      Me either tbh

      • Shippoyasha

        I know all of them. They are fairly popular shows.

  • Akari Akaza

    Yep! I’m in a game…..(^・ω・^ )

    • :B

      Awaiting a comment from you about this

      Was not disappointed xD

    • http://playstationallstars.wikia.com/wiki/PlayStation_All-Stars_Wiki Sackchief

      Who are you again?

      lol, get it?

  • https://www.youtube.com/user/GamingHeroTetsuya TetsuyaHikari

    So instead of working on Project Diva F 3rd, you do this instead? Haha. Yeah, screw you too then, Sega.

    Better show us Project Diva F 3rd at TGS this year :<

    • Hachiman

      and i thought sega will milk miku xD

    • Cazar

      What’s wrong? Miku could use a break.

    • NEKO WORKING

      High chance they still in development of Project Diva for PS4.

    • Shippoyasha

      This project has more potential for fans of these properties and they worked on that really good K-On rhythm game while they were working on Project Diva. They will be fine.

      • JPAR

        I hope by “really good K-On rhythm game” you don’t mean the crappy one on PSP.

        • Shippoyasha

          That game was alright, just that it had to contend with low pixel count and a slight game lag. They fixed that for the PS3 version though.

  • tubers

    Akariinn!!

  • crazyhunter

    Oh yeah!!!!! screw p4dan with their remixes this is goty for sure

  • TrueDefault

    Kiniro Mosaic? Yuru Yuri? Vividred?? Where do I preorder?!?

  • NEKO WORKING

    Nice change of pace ;D

  • Wagnaria

    That list…
    F**k*ng Glorious! I need this game! D:

  • Hidayat246

    Loli Dance Waifu for lolicon

    never like it

  • http://www.ukanime.com abigsmurf

    I like the designs of those three girls shown there. Weird the twin-tails girl is by herself off to the left.

  • Cael

    Woahwoahwoah! Hold the eff on! A rythm game with characters from Arpeggio, Nyaruko and Vividred? I’m buying this. So. Hard.

  • Peanut

    I have no idea who any of these characters are. Would still play.

  • TwinBuns

    I had to look up Tesagure! Bukatsumono, turns out it’s made using Miku Miku Dance.

    I’d be interested in getting this game, but I want to see more first. Those Yuru Yuri character models are a bit too close on the side of kigurumi for my liking.

  • naofox

    Add Toradora, Anohana, or Working!! to the mix, and I’ll think about it.
    So far it just sounds like cutesy comedy slice of life anime hell for me.

    Project Diva F 3rd, I’m waiting for you.

  • http://frauds.com Slightly Apathetic Mio

    Kiniro Mosaic and Yuri Yuri.

    Fuck yes I needed this in my life. It’s complete.
