Guess What Wasn’t an April Fools Joke?

Or if it was, it’s still going and Moon Phase has fallen for it– they link to a post on Key’s blog labeled Maji desu yo! (”It’s true!”).

I am, of course, talking about Key’s announcement of their newest game, titled Rewrite. So to those of you who commented on it saying “SUCH a freakin’ hoax,” HA, I say. HA!

Key Gets Ready To “Rewrite”

03/31/08 1006 hours

No, no, not the Fullmetal Alchemist ED theme– visual novel developer Key’s newest game is, according to Canned Dogs, going to be titled Rewrite– assuming that this isn’t a prank. (CD isn’t quite sure, because the scenario writing staff is phenomenal (plus it’s April Fool’s Day in Japan): Higurashi writer Ryuukishi07 in particular is noteworthy). It’s unclear if the game will be ero or not.

I’m mostly letting you know because odds are good KyoAni will develop it into an anime eventually, and then I’ll sit here complaining about how everyone looks and sounds like a ten-year-old. You know, the usual.
