Kenshi Yonezu Discord: https://discord.gg/qvynDfM (If the discord link doesn’t work, message me so I can send you a new link!) This blog is for information and any Kenshi Yonezu posts! I don’t know a lot of Japanese so I try my best to get info from vgperson and bad translator websites. If you have any questions or anything at all then please don’t hesitate to message me! (Messaging is preferred over asks because I don’t always get notified for asks, but I will still try to check them often!) I apologize that I may not be as active on here as much as I’d like to be these days so I may not make many original posts but I am still around to answer any questions!
