バンダイナムコゲームスは4月8日、スマートフォン向けボイス付き小説アプリ「ボイノベ」の配信を開始した。価格はアプリのダウンロードが無料で、1巻ごとに個別課金。

ボイノベは人気声優によるボイスやBGM、イラストで彩られる新しい読書体験ができる小説としている。第1弾タイトルとして「テイルズ オブ ヴェスペリア」のシナリオを担当したバンダイナムコスタジオの奥田孝明氏による、幼少時代のユーリとフレンが登場する公式外伝「テイルズ オブ ヴェスペリア-断罪者の系譜-」上巻「ひとつの出会い、ふたりの剣」（1巻400円）を配信。中巻、下巻も順次配信予定。

今後は同社の人気タイトルのボイノベ化を予定しており、「アイドルマスター」シリーズからは、アニメ版アイドルマスターの劇中劇である「無尽合体キサラギ」のストーリーを準備中としている。

The first two paragraphs say that Bandai Namco's putting out voice novels as a smartphone app, and they're starting with Tales of Vesperia sidestories with young Yuri and Flynn. Check out the last paragraph though...

"Also, Bandai Namco is preparing the voice novelization of a piece of their popular Idolm@ster franchise, Mujin Gattai Kisaragi, featured in the Idolm@ster anime."

... So like, did they announce this a week too late?

...is this legit?
Because if it is, I'm torn between being excited and angry that they're not giving the spotlight to a character that actually...well, matters.
Like Makoto.

Am I the only one who's actually been hoping they'd do something like this? Not particularly just for the Mujin Gattai Kisaragi movie, but the one in Ep. 26 and especially the one in the movie, Nemuri Hime.

Though something like this will probably never get translated, but at least it happened. At least that's what I'll tell myself.

Just read the first 100 pages. It's a pretty fun read. though I wish I could just download it to my iPhone instead of have to access it though the app, which require access to internet, every time I want to read it, since signal in my room is pretty weak.

I really hope this means a Nemurihime side-story. I watched the "trailer" for that about 50 times, roughly.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. That was awesome. xD
