To recap, Sakura Kakumei: Hanasaku Otome-tachi is a turn-based RPG where players will play as the commander and lead the girls to win in battles. The girls fight wearing armour dubbed the “Spiricle Dress” , instead of the Spiricle Striker Mugen like the past Sakura Wars games used to have.
If for some reason you missed out on our past coverage of this game, here is the an overview of its story courtesy of Gematsu:
Taisho era year 100.
Japan, which suffered devastating damage in the “Capital Catastrophe” that occurred 16 years ago, has been reconstructed thanks to a new type of energy based on spiritual power, “Mirai.”
However, with the activation of the “New Capital Tower,” the cherry blossoms no longer bloomed and demons called Kouki started to increase in numbers, attacking people all over the country. During this time, the guardian of the people was a government organization called “Great Imperial Combat Revue B.L.A.C.K.” These girls took the country by storm with their awesome live performances while protecting the lives of citizens.
With Mirai and B.L.A.C.K., the people thought that placing their trust in the government will bring continued peace. Although a few have realized that this prosperity was a lie. They call themselves “Imperial Combat Revue.” Bring the government’s real plan to light, and take back Japan!
