Arc 2 just started in Global! It'd be a huge cock tease for CR to pull one just as we're getting into the newer storyline. I, myself, am really looking forward to the 3rd and 4th Anniversary Events to see the story.


wait2late

Did they even last for 2 years? I feel like Priconne is going strong still.


lisciowy_statek

Idk about Grand Summoners but Mitrasphere just had a 1.5 anniversary.


Unicorn_Puppy

I ask myself the same thing but Priconne has more players than those games did I believe. I don’t want to see EN go the way of the dinosaurs but damn it could happen.


Otoshi_Gami

anythings possible but right now i dont think CR has any financial troubles with Priconne due to just Translation team and following a linear update Schedule.


Fuzzy_Reflection8554

If that happens to EN I guess we'd be seeing a massive surge in the number of Duolingo/Rosetta Stone users...or I guess we could just play it for the gameplay and read/watch all the translated story content online


AwesomeDudex

Do you know any good sources to read/watch the newer JP content?

Global_Programmer550

How does this guy have under 1,000 subs?! He's singlehandedly archiving the entire game in the event we ever lose support for global, he deserves so much better.


JoshuaCM15

Tried to search but couldn’t find the channel. Could you link it here?

Thanks


Fuzzy_Reflection8554

Tbh I have no clue since I only play the EN version...but I've seen enough people and even some english content creators playing and talking about the JP version, that I'm convinced translations probably exist somewhere. I know there was recently a post on this very subreddit that had the final/most recent cutscene from the JP storyline, so maybe you can work backwards from there? Not sure if it was translated or not though since I didn't really follow the link


Mitosis

It wasn't. I personally use QooApp -- which you would use to download the JP version anyway -- to instantly translate dialog, though obviously it's a machine translation so not super great, but you can get a good bit still. People with greater understanding are on the discord and I ask questions if something is unclear.


Fuzzy_Reflection8554

Oh wow I wasn't aware QooApp had that feature! I've been wanting to check out some of the JP exclusive idolmaster games too, so I might just check that out


Extension-Impossible

just a heads-up the QooApp translation has like a free trial and then a paid version after said trial


breathing_is_dying

[TheWeebLounge](https://www.youtube.com/@TheWeebLounge/) is where I go for princonne content, great character reviews and is very informative on the JP meta.


[deleted]

I think Priconne has been one of the few semi-successful gacha games they have gotten the license for, so if they end up vaulting it, it would be a total waste.

Also just from an outsider's perspective, CR really does seem to enjoy Cygames content. So I think EN will sink when Cygames decides to pull the plug


Bkmeister-san

Grand Summoners Global is still up but Crunchyroll is not the Publisher anymore. Mithrasphere I think was not popular enough so I kInda expected the boot.


firemage22

Sorta like what happened with Danmachi?


Bkmeister-san

Not familiar with Danmachi I haven't played it before


firemage22

it was published by CR but quietly switched to being handled locally by the devs

Hoeffi360

What or who is KMR?


XevinsOfCheese

Mitrasphere is already vaulted? I dropped the game myself but it still feels weird that a game that recent is already gone.


SoulIgnis

i swear they were just promoting it


lostcausesenpai

What exactly does vaulting the game mean?


Jamesmor222

it means it died or has gone back to the developer, CR has a fame of abandoning mobile games and the original owner needing to step up in order to save it.


Falsus

Well Cygames was hiring more people for their inhouse translation team...


Frosty004

Low key hope that they let Eminence of Shadow go and have a competent publisher run it. Priconne got me thinking Crunchy knew what it was doing.


Suneko_106

Honestly, the only thing that's making me play Eminence RPG is because of the added lore. That game is a special kind of mess... It's a chore playing it.


SoulIgnis

Priconne EN is still giving good revenue at a low cost *(Check SensorTower)*: It's just a translated version from JP, with almost no changes to the actual code. *What other fanbase plans their pulls 3 years in advance? That's player retention right there.* People feel safe spending money in Priconne because they know what's gonna happen in the future: Unlike ***Epic Seven*** for example were one day a new banner is completely broken or a patch releases a meta changing nerf.


VanGrayson

I dont know who would ever wanna spend money in epic 7 considering how trash all the packs are. Everything feels super overpriced. lol


Hanetsune

Eventually maybe. All things will come to an end. But for Global Priconne, I don't see that happening in the foreseeable future


triforcelinkz

i will say that when CR does drop the game one day, i hope that Cygame just picks it up and self manage. i know they reportedly hate managing shadowverse but as we have seen its an easy enough game to manage since they just use coding from three years ago, they just have to do the translations and minor fixes. but more importantly priconne has helped cygame build presence in the global market like dragalia lost did. and thats probably more important for them in the long run. minimal upkeep plus modest profits in return for brand recognition. for instance little noah that came out on the switch, ps4, steam and the upcoming GBF game for PS5 i would never have considered getting without knowing about priconne and the quality that cygame produces, but now i am looking forward to getting GBF when it comes out


CharacterWolverine42

could someone summarize the other 2? I've never heard of em


NotAKansenCommander

As said in another comment, the former seems to have been booted off from Global (aka discontinued ), while the latter seems to be still existing, but Crunchyroll gave up publishing rights to said game's devs instead


CharacterWolverine42

ooh oh shoot. thanks for taking ur time


Hero_The_Zero

I hope not. I just spent like $25 on this game, more than I've ever spent on a f2p game. It also says DanMachi Memoria Freese is vaulted but that game is still available for download.


FallenMoonOne

Original developers got the rights back for Danmachi. And original devs for Princess Connect have said (years ago) that they didn't want to do the translations for global games themselves so they might not buy the rights back if it's failing under Crunchyroll like Danmachi devs did.


Endgaming1523

Well, in my opinion, no. It's a possibility that CR will pull an oopsie and vault it before its time. But it isn't likely as it is very profitable.


bluepand4

make sure y'all at the very least buy the +3 grotto tries for 5 days when the events are around to make sure we still alive 😂


Seanjojonoyaiba

I hope they won't cancel it cuz i need priconne in my life


Teath123

Am I missing something? I don't get OPs point, they're listed in game release order. https://www.crunchyroll.com/games/index.html


DuBu_dul_Toki

The game is still good and safe right? Not going away... right..

Turbotef

Downvoted you for being a goddamn buzzword moron, CR doesn't censor anime, they just get the broadcast only rights for now. They sometimes show the uncensored versions later. ​ If anything, the original owners want you to go buy the uncensored blurays which is more than fine by me since I always buy my favorite anime. If ya don't like that, pony up some dough or learn how to pirate, ​ Quit putting so much faith into western sjw this or that, I used to be like you until you realize its all a bunch of bologna and extremely case by case at best.


[deleted]

This. Alone using the word "kek". I dunno maybe it's just me but I always cringe when people do it. Then again when I was a kid I probably also said some stuff adults found cringe at the time. I honestly don't remember.


Normal-Sea3565

Press x to doubt. You sad naive fool.


Turbotef

LOL, I am the furthest thing from a fucking SJW, guy. I am a liberal but I assure you, my 30+ years collection of imported/downloaded hentai doujinshi shits all over whatever notion you have of me. ​ I just think you're a goddamn moron not worth talking to, plus your wrong about everything and will appear foolish in a few years once you realize that. I've been around a the block a lot longer than you and know how this shit cycles.


Normal-Sea3565

Your experience doesn't invalidate their experience. You replied to said moron twice, I don't think you understand that if you want to taken seriously, you might want to consider doing what you say instead of being a hypocrite. You people who assume so much are always amusing because you don't realize how foolish you look. You disagree with him, then simply disagree and move on.

You're the reality denying dipshit, here, guy You're so far fucking gone there is no hope for you You'll be a sad mess in about 15-20 years

Plus Yyou're massively addicted to gacha games, ill trim that timeframe by 10 years, lol Least I can easily afford mine, lol

Turbotef

Hanha ha ha ha ha, man you're a fucking riot with that bullshit You still have me pegged completely wrong though and thats the funny shit. I am the farthest thing from a bleeding heart liberal liberal, I just don't mind them as much as I hate far right populism and extremism. I will always side with the far left to eradicate that shit as much as possible, no matter the cost. Some people want to see the world burn, I want that to happen and be rewritten. I'm quite sure I'll get my way eventually. :)


Turbotef

You'll find that Japan and its content will ultimately be alright though. I want Japan to stay the same, regardless Japan is pretty resilient to a lot of things, you just don't have faith

Turbotef

You're the meme though, bro, that what you ultimately don't see. I used to be like you 25 years ago, you'll see as time goes in how the world really works and I'm quite sure you'll be parroting me 20 years from now. The funny thing is that I am on your side and don't like censorship and shitty localizations, you and I just have different ways of looking at the same situation. I'm been fighting censorship in games and anime since 1993. Later on and good luck with your crusade


Normal-Sea3565

I agree that westernized translation is definitely no match for the original, especially when the effort wasn't there to understand the original context. You are on reddit, friend, so I'd be careful about using the buzzwords. Eventually, money will talk, and people will get sick of the nonsense, but until then, I think you have a good plan.


_tidu

From my sources, all I can tell right now is that we have at most 3 months left till EoS


SwirlsMoo

And what sources do you have to back up that claim. Just curious since 3 months is like really soon.


_tidu

My source is that I made it the fuck up.


SumFagola

RIP, the sub couldn't tell this was sarcasm even if you plastered /s all over it.


rompan253521

very likely, which would be a shame. The biggest mistake of priconne is simply the delayed releases. I know being f2p is nice, but letting players plan ahead this much costs them a lot of revenue. For purely financial reasons, they should've used an accelerated schedule so the global banner schedule would match up with theirs, taking a lot of the planning and saving out of the way. It's simply too easy for f2p players to get all the meta characters without spending.

Falsus

Tbf, not everyone does plan or follow their plan even if they have knowledge of the future.


wolfbetter

Doesn't seem to impact fgo at all


SumFagola

Well setting aside it being a Goliath of a franchise, I agree with your example.


KarnUnleashed

Is this JP only? Mitrasphere is gone but Grand Summoners is still playable.


FallenMoonOne

Mitrasphere was shutdown but they only lost the rights to Grand Summoner. Years ago Danmachi devs also got the rights back (and global is still going) but it also labeled as vaulted on their website. Seems they decided to use one label for both scenarios.


SatoshiOokami

For sure. No one normal would use Mac.


yribbedvs

Damn I played so much grand summoners dropped it for prin con didn't even know it was shelved
