‘Zettai Shougeki’ Gets a Platonic OVA…And Boob-Touching Game
Ultimatum has word of an OVA titled Zettai Shougeki ~Platonic Heart~ (I can’t find a good translation for this particular “shougeki” kanji– a different kanji can mean “shock” –but the “shou” is translated as an important point or moment in time, and “geki” can mean something kind of like “ultra” or “uber,” so maybe something like “Definitely An Ultra-Important Moment”? Anyone else have thoughts?).
I’m having trouble finding a lot of info on this one, but Gigazine notes that the series is a collaboration of 10 companies from different sectors of the market (figures, anime, games, goods, etc). Also, Little Non (who did the infamous Kodomo no Jikan ED theme) is doing the main theme for the anime, titled “Tatsumaki WAVE.”
Also, on the official website, there’s a boob-touching game called BlogParts where you can get a little script to add to your blog. There are a bunch of them: one will go through each of the girls and let them talk…but if you register for the site you can get access to a one for each girl, and you can “touch” her thighs and breasts with the mouse. I’m going to try posting a couple of those under the jump for you.
Anyway! The main point is, we can expect some pervy harem fun whenever this thing comes out.
I’d translate “Zettai Shougeki” as “Absolute Impact” or “Ultimate Impact.”
Oh, didn’t read too closely… is it a pun, then? *squints* Can’t tell from here.
You guys might both be right.
Phonetically, shougeki can mean shock or impact, according to wwwjdic.
The Kodansha Kanji Learner’s Dictionary shows the latter kanji meaning violent or “acting with extreme force”; vehement; fierce. But also sudden or rapid. A second definitions says intense, severe, or strong. And of course, a third definition says excite, stimulate, or stir-up.
So I agree. It would seem to be a pun.
