Writers Needed

Hey, guys. Life is busy and stuff, and I haven't had the time to keep up with WOMI's blog and post about RKS-related news. However, I see that a few of you are keeping up with it and are posting about it int he comments sections. Would any of you be interested in becoming a writer for the site? I could use the help. Post a comment, or drop us a line at grollschwert[at]gmail[dot]com. Please and thank you.

New Whiterockman Letty Doujinshi To Be Released at Reitaisai 9

At Reitaisai 9, Sumikaze Midi of Project LT will be releasing a new Whiterockman Letty doujinshi. As far as I can tell (and this is a pretty loose interpretation, so bear with me), it will be a prologue to the upcoming game. There's something about a possible reprint of the original doujinshi, but I'm not entirely certain of whether this is that reprint or if it will be provided at his booth as well. Again, loose reading. I just wanted to post this.

You can check out the sample set on his pixiv here.

Voice Actress for Refraktia Twins Chosen

We here at Schwer and Schwer Alike would like to extend a warm welcome to Nene Ayatsuki, the newest member of the RKS voice cast. She will be voicing both Rink and Lecht Refraktia for Rosenkreuzstilette ~Freudenstachel~, and in listening to her voice samples, I have to say that I think she’ll fit right in. Congratulate her and give her your best regards on Twitter, if you would be so kind, and listen to the sample page on her site by clicking the small banner.

On a related note, Grolla Seyfarth dere yessssssssssss.

Art Showcase: Three Blonde Doujin Girls

It never really occurred to me that they’re all blonde-haired. Whatever the case, this is a pretty amazing piece of art by 暗月の故障者, and you should definitely click the picture to see the full version of the image. Also worth checking out are our new Facebook Timeline cover image (“Like” us and go check it out), as well as Spritia with -1 lives from another artist, who actually has some pretty awesome (and hilarious) RKS fan art. What are you waiting for? Check it out!

Rockman Ciel, Hisaoman, and More!

Thanks to SaSA reader Axl007, Rockman Ciel caught my attention, and I must say I’m impressed but by no means surprised. Ciel was pretty great, after all, and making an entire project around her seems like something that needed to happen. Rockman Ciel seems to be an entire multimedia project that includes a Zero-based fan game in progress, a full art series on pixiv, a Web Radio series, and even a project concept art book with full character backgrounds and scenario history. It seems like a pretty ambitious and crazy project, and I hope to see it come to fruition. My hope is that it doesn’t suffer the same fact as Rockmen R, which swiftly received the C&D hammer from Capcom and is no longer available. We’ll see how that goes.

You may remember Hisaoman, the (arguably tasteless) Katawa Shoujo fan game with a Rockman touch. It turns out that this game was supposed to be released shortly after the release of the game early this year, though the forum thread stated “around this November (2011)”. There hasn’t been a lot of news concerning development, and it almost seems like the project may be on the backburner, as his latest post on Newgrounds seems to be more concerned with Ragnarok sprite animation. However, KS hasn’t been completely forgotten, as he released Katawa Shoujo: Symphony of the Feminists back in February, which features a Rockman-sprite Miki. The game itself is really silly and pretty fun, though the SotN PSX-inspired dialogue leaves a lot to be desired. Well, if anything comes up with this project, we’ll definitely mention it here. This is really turning into a Mega Man fan game blog, isn’t it?

I’ve been looking to change up the site layout a little bit by adding links to the sidebar and implementing pages, most notably with information about obtaining and working with Rosenkreuzstilette. Currently, I’ve added links to the Rockman-inspired various fan projects, as well as related blogs, including the re-addition of zaku6’s. I imagine I’ll be able to clean this up a lot by adding an overall “Link” page. I really want to revamp the sitenav and get everything as neat as possible. In addition, I will need some help from some of SaSA’s readers concerning my "RKSclopedia” project. I plan on moving the wiki entirely away from Wikia and setting it up on Google Sites, which looks a lot neater and will give us a lot more control to prevent future problems and speculations when Freudenstachel comes out. We’ll have a basic gathering of all character and scenario information for the site, and compiling and editing will be done as a group over Google Docs. Once that’s all said and done, we’ll get the ball rolling. The RKS Wikia isn’t going anywhere, obviously, and will undoubtedly be updated as the series goes on. That’s fine. I just want to have the most accurate and well-maintained wiki possible based here on SaSA. I figure that’s reasonable enough. I’ll try and get that WOMI interview done soon, when my friend who can help me with the translation stuff isn’t busy.

If you would like to help with this project, please inquire in the comments or e-mail us directly at grollschwert[at]gmail[dot]com. Let’s continue to improve Schwer and Schwer Alike as the best RKS resource on the net!
