Namco Taiko Blog (31 October 2013) - Sorairo's last Donchare


As announced yesterday, the Taiko Team's Halloween blog post is about the last Don Challenge for the month of November.

That's right; despite the fact that there is no more space allocated for Don Challenge titles in the list (probably appended at the end, I don't know), the monthly goals will extend by one more month!

After four months of old songs, Sorairo's swansong (Yuugen no Ran aside) is a brand new song! The song in question is called Jikuu Chou Jikuu 1-Ka (時空庁時空1課, lit 'Space-Time Agency Space-Time Division 1') (we'll change it later if the song title turns out to be pronounced any differently), and it's being made by Kawagen Collagen (カワーゲン・コラーゲン), another artist who is behind the rearrangement of Kaneko Chiharu's Aisowarai (one of the CreoFuga winning songs) as well as other recent Namco Originals whose names are sadly not mentioned. As usual, you can listen to a preview of the song in the blog entry.

As for the costume, since we're deep in autumn now, there's a new unlockable outfit waiting to be worn, appropriately named Autumn Friends (秋のなかま). With the previous release of the Forest Friends outfit, is Namco making Don-chan outfit series now?

Next week's blog entry will probably be about the next giant firmware update, as Etou mentioned something about 'many new changes' or something to that effect. We'll just have to wait and see.
