Grimoire of Marisa

There are rumors going around that Grimoire of Marisa will be going on sale on the 28th of July. And by 'rumors', I mean that a website is currently taking orders for it. It looks legit, too. ZUN has not made any comments regarding this as of yet.

Grimoire of Marisa is a book written by Marisa about the various spellcards she has encountered.

It's official. It was revealed in one of the chapters of Cage in Lunatic Runagate or somewhere. I forget where exactly, but I'll try to locate the source.

EDIT: Found it. It was on Chapter 7 of CiLR

Well on the image I just posted I believe it mentions the date where that 09 is. I can't read it, but I think the date might be mentioned around there somewhere =/.

Oh, so you say it's like the next BAiJR/PMiSS? Sounds exciting.
nintendonut888: Hey Baity. I beat the high score for Sanae B hard on the score.dat you sent me. X3
Baity: For a moment, I thought you broke 1.1billion. Upon looking at my score.dat, I can assume that you destroyed the score that is my failed (first!) 1cc attempt on my first day of playing. Congratulations.

What interests me is the CD that's supposed to be coming alongside it.
A new Shoot the Bullet-like game or a new music CD?
Both would be great~

The scary thing about this is that Marisa can write. I can only imagine what will be written.

Well, I suppose this is interesting stuff, it allows for one to get a better look into spellcards themselves, I guess.

The CD will contain a new track, containing elements from Love-Colored Master Spark and Grimoire of Alice.

Must have!!! It does look very interesting. I only wonder what type of things Marisa would write.

The mind reels. I imagine she'd be pretty candid, and probably not have the best grammar, and tend to ramble off topic.

"Human history and growth are both linked closely to strife. Without conflict, humanity would have no impetus for growth. When humans are satisfied with their present condition, they may as well give up on life."

So, pretty much exactly like PMiSS and BAiJR then? *brick'd*

Or it might be just like an artbook of spellcards screenshots with Marisa pov like Aya's StB comments (we won't have the 4 1st games, also no StB either since she is not supposed to have meet all those cards)

Sweet, I've been looking forward to this! Personally, I suspect Marisa's writing to be surprisingly astute -- despite her general craziness, she is very good at what she does. And she already keeps diligent notes of her own work, so I figure she'd be just as thorough with other people's stuff, as usual. But of course she'd have to keep her sense of humor (and more importantly, ZUN has to keep his). Either way, I'm super curious about it.

...I kind of dread waiting for it to be translated, though. BAiJR and PMiSS aren't even finished yet. On the plus side, it also means getting excited each time a new bit of translation comes out.

I can't wait to check her "Full list of all my stealings but with a different and more classy name".
I know it's an encriminating thing to have, but it would comfort her in her bed when she'd become an old lady to know how she used to have fun when young.

if you think of SF's Gen as an example, she'll likely be around for quite a long time. (if not Gen, think of Oro..)
neku: now for something important.
Translations.
How much time do you guys think it will take for HM to be translated? Besides everyone's story modes and the whole menus, there's also the fact that the way HM's programmed is different from all other games. I bet it'll take two months.

lusvik: I don't mind about playing HM in japanese. The language of punching other people is international.

Assuming she doesn't go down the Sorceress route and become a youkai....

Highly likely, if her usage of Master Spark is an indicator of her magical capabilities.

I'd say it's a distinct possibility, given that Akyu herself mentioned the possibility in Perfect Memento ...

yea..
if she can use spells that a strong high level youkai, it shows how powerful she is.

Same for Reimu with her hakurei danmaku bounded field...

they may already be half youkai by now..
