So this time of year has come again.
(Again…… my birthday, I forgot……)
“Sorry, nii-san…… I……”
“You don’t need to answer right now. Take your time to think.”
Nii-san smiled kindly and left the room.
I took out my smartphone and opened the screen to Circle.
『I want to do something to thank you for that photo the other day.』
『What would you like?』
I had been struggling to think of an answer when nii-san had come in.
(Photo…… that would be, the photo of Ginba-kun, hiding from the teacher and eating senbei in class…… maybe……)
『Sorry for such a late reply. I couldn’t think of anything I wanted, so…』
『Is that so? Even just something small would be fine though.』
(Something small……)
I looked up from my phone and cast my gaze around my room. It was overflowing with different objects.
(…… My room…… is covered, in gifts……)
“…………”
『I might have thought of something I want.』
『You did? That’s good.』
『Um, Tozuki-kun.』
『Would I be able to ask you to help with something?』
――The next day, the lounge room at Akagi was full of people.
“Use, is this sort of thing ok?”
“Yes…… It looks, cute……”
“Uwah, Commander, isn’t that dangerous!? That pigeon, i- it’s alive…! I definitely sense it’s alive!”
“It’s just origami. ……Tsuzuru, what do want to do with this?”
“Thank you…… then, I…… want to put it here, I think……”
“Understood.”
“……I could fold something as easy as a pigeon too.”
“Don’t make this a competition. ……but Ginba, you’re actually really good, huh.”
“Hey, Benii, pass me the pink over there~”
“So ugly! Stop just using the fluorescent ones!”
“Ehhh―”
“Tsuzu, using this cloth is ok, isn’t it?”
“Yes…… It looks, cute……”
Looking around at the room, so much livelier than usual, without noticing I started smiling.
“Tsuzuru, do you think you can make something nice?”
“Yeah…… look, in the end, it turned out well…… I think……”
“Is that right. I’m glad.”
At nii-san’s kind words, I started smiling even more.
『I want to make a board.』
After talking a while with Tozuki-kun, I said that to nii-san.
『Board?』
『Yeah…… I want to have…… something I can use…… to hang up all the key-holders and things, that people have given me……』
『And you don’t want to just buy one?』
『I want to, make something myself…… which I can put up together…… with all my memories, with everyone else…… so……』
『……I understand. Let’s start planning it now.』
『Tozuki-kun…… will also, be coming tomorrow…… he said…… I’m glad……』
『……Is that so.』
From Tozuki-kun to Sakumori-kun. And from there, to Ginba-kun and Shikura-kun, and Oboroya-kun.
Like that, the plans for today spread around, and everyone was helping to make a board to decorate with photos and key-holders together with me.
“Ok! Let’s take a photo with everyone together!”
“Eh, photo……?”
“Sounds good~! Tsuzuru can be right in the middle~!”
“E- eh……”
“In that case, I’ll take it.”
“Ah, nii-san……”
When nii-san tried to stand up, I hurried to grab his shirt to stop him.
“Nii-san, too…… together……”
“Tsuzuru……”
“I’ll put it on timer mode…… ok, it’s set! I’ll go next to Sou-chan~”
“Wai- Aki……”
“Ow, damn you, stop pushing!”
“Tsuzu, smile.”
“Y- yes……”
“……Happy birthday, Tsuzuru.”
――*click*
A few days later, after getting that photo developed, I pinned it up on the board we had made.
“……fufu.”
Seeing everyone’s smiling faces in the photo, I felt my heart warm.
Preregistrations are now closed! Please enjoy the game and, if you were one of the people who did preregister, the rewards!
With just under three weeks left before the game’s release, now’s your last chance to preregister and receive the bonuses associated with it.
There are two methods by which you can preregister:
Via the official website using your e-mail address
Via the anakare app.
These are both detailed below the cut.
Preregistration rewards
If you preregister for the game, you will receive the following rewards:
And on top of this...
If the total number of preregistrations passes certain goals, the rewards will rank up!
For over 300,000 total preregistrations, everyone will receive:
For over 500,000 total preregistrations, everyone will receive:
Item descriptions:
Scenario Pass: An item that is necessary to proceed through the game’s scenario.
REW Card: An item that will allow you to redo a choice you make during the game.
JOKER Card: An item that allows you to automatically clear one of the missions that appears during the game.
Seiyuu signboard lottery: After the game’s service begins, a lottery will be held to win one of the available signboards. Preregistering will give you a certain number of entries in this lottery.
How to preregister
Note that it is possible to preregister by both of the following methods, though you will only receive the benefits once. If you’re able to, though, I’d recommend doing both, as this will add to the total preregistration count to get better rewards.
1. Via the website
The preregistration page on the Beast x Light website can be accessed by clicking the above button on the title page, or by visiting the following link.
http://www.beast-light.com/jizen/index.php
Near the top of this page, there is a form where you can type in your e-mail address, as shown below. Do so, and click the blue button underneath to submit.
If your e-mail address is valid and hasn’t been used to preregister already, you will be redirected to a new screen. You will also shortly receive an e-mail confirming it went through.
This means your preregistration is complete.
2. Via the app.
The anakare app. can be downloaded for either Android and iOS from the links below (both links will work for international devices/accounts).
After downloading the app and setting up your account, scroll down on the “TOP” screen until you reach the following notice (5th banner below the pink “My Games” button) and tap on it.
Doing so will take you to the following screen. To preregister, just click the blue button.
[EDIT: This banner has now been moved to the very top of the “TOP” screen]
The app. will then show you a confirmation and the date and time of your preregistration will now be shown on the preregistration screen in place of the button.
This means your preregistration is complete.
Bonus reward for anakare users
For users who play the game “Chigiribako” on the anakare app. and have completed at least one ending for one of the characters (normal ends ok!), you will also receive a bonus newly drawn illustration by Itodamachi as a present!
This will be able to be accessed from within the game after Beast x Light begins service.
