A multi-anime crossover RPG for the DS. Yeah, we'll probably never see it outside of Japan, but the characters on the cover got my attention.

I recognize Kino from Kino's Journey (Kino no Tabi), Shana from Shakugan no Shana, and even Taiga from Toradora. And a couple of the other characters I've seen before, but don't know the character/series.

The only ones I recognized were Kino and Shana, but that does look kinda cool. Another one of those "wish I knew Japanese" games.
