Adabana Odd Tales Gets First Trailer Showing Opening Cutscene; June Release Announced

Today Aniplex’s visual novel brand Aniplex.exe released the first trailer of one of its upcoming games, Adabana Odd Tales

The trailer showcases the opening cutscene of the game, including a look at the game’s most definitely unique art style.

On top of that, the release window has been narrowed down to June 2020, even if a precise date has not been announced yet.

While we already know that the game will include English subtitles, the Steam listing is available in North Amzerica, but it’s blocked in Europe, unlike the other Aniplex.exe title, ATRI: My Dear Moments.

You can watch the trailer below.

If you’re unfamiliar with the game, you can read a description below.

A girl finds herself in a dark and unfamiliar forest when a monster appears out of nowhere and attacks.

A mysterious boy, wielding a brush like it was a sword, appears just in time to cut down the monster.

He calls himself Kurofude, and he addresses the girl in familiar tones as Shirohime.
Yet she does not recognize him or the name he calls her.

She has lost all of her memories.

According to Kurofude, they are in the land of Adabana, a realm of illustrated books.

Their tales are like dreams; no matter how deeply one immerses oneself in them, once one wakes up, they are gone.

Thus the name Adabana—a name given to flowers that will never bear fruit.

Their duty is to travel through story realms and look for signs of distortions in the tales.

Shirohime, a girl with seemingly all the agency of a doll, accepts this explanation and opens a book handed to her.

The title: Hanasaka Jiisan.

As she opens the dilapidated illustrated book with its pages riddled with worm-eaten holes, the pages glow brightly and whisk the girl and boy away to a fairy tale realm…

Adabana Odd Tales is in development by Liar Soft and has been announced only for PC.
