A huge, huge thanks to each and every one of you who gave us your love and support!
The VenusBlood GAIA International Project is a success! We've also managed to achieve quite a few stretch goals, and we at Ninetail are extremely ecstatic!
In order to bring all of you loyal fans the best game possible, we at Ninetail will give it our all! A ton of new content we need to work on and put into the game, after all!
As for the Backerkit, surveys will be sent out to backers soon, around the 15th of September or so (Subject to Change).
The ultimate deadline for the surveys and pre-order store is the 15th of December 2022, but we would certainly appreciate a speedy response!
Time-Limited Add-Ons are available for purchase until the 10th of October.
We will also be opening up the pre-order store around the same time (via Backerkit) that will allow non-backers to purchase add-ons and specific pledge tiers! (World Arcana & Energeia Council Tiers are not available)
*Regarding Special Reservation Add-Ons, we will announce the amount earned after the Backerkit has launched. The Final Amount (For Stretch Goals) will be calculated then.
The pre-order store and add-on purchases should accept Paypal payments as well, but if anyone out there requires special assistance, feel free to contact us.
tl;dr: For backers, just wait for the survey. For non-backers, use the pre-order store that will be released in future to buy your digital or physical goods. For those who want to discuss other methods, contact us.
Also, something else on our post-KS explanations checklist, what to do if your credit card pledge has been declined! Please follow the instructions on this link:

Good day, everyone!
Looks like the KS is picking up a bit of steam as we move towards the end, eh? Because, well, we've just surpassed 225%!
Simply amazing. Just a little more to 250% and the next SG!
And since the art also explained the second part of this update, we will cover it right away!
That's right, Sasama Shin (Twitter>NSFW WARNING<) will be the guest artist for an official doujinshi this time around! An amazing artist who more or less specialises in a specific genre often portrayed in VB, we are sure he will draw us an amazing piece.
Do look forward to it! And if you have not ordered an Artbook, perhaps this announcement will be enough to change your mind?
Carmilla Blanket Sample Images
Ah yes, and we have received a sample of the Carmilla Blanket, and today we would like to share some photos of it with you all!

What the Underside looks like
Size Comparison with a standard DVD case
Looks great, doesn't it?
For anyone curious, the material is made from a combination of Fleece and Suede material.
World Arcana 10th Selected Character
HMM? What's that, you ask?
Since the last update, it would appear that we have a new World Arcana holder!
We have also managed to get in contact and ascertain the character he wishes to grant a scene to, and the one chosen is...
"I was chosen...? Hmm...I suppose I should convey my thanks."
Kukul Kanan!
The slim, lovely elf who loves her brother maybe a bit too much was chosen for a scene. Being the curious type, I'm sure she herself is also wondering what kind of scene awaits her! Do look forward to it!
Still, if you consider Tamamo and Tomoe as the same person (The body is the same, at the very least), this means that technically, all the Main Heroines of each Country will be getting scenes in VBGI! What an amazing coincidence.
Truly, they all share a common fate...Yes, the inescapable fate of being tentacled.
*IMPORTANT: This choice is not final and still subject to change, as the Kickstarter is still ongoing.

Greetings and salutations, everyone!
What a great day, for we have achieved 200%, meaning Stretch Goal #4!
This means that we've actually hit double the amount of our initial funding goal!
We thank you all for all of your support! You guys rule!
Now then, Stretch Goal #4.
Functionally identical to Stretch Goal #1, let us recap the contents.
A sub heroine will receive a new scene, and 2 guest units from a different Venusblood game will also be joining the Gaia roster!
Available sub heroines can be found on the characters page of the Gaia website! (linked in the Character section of the Kickstarter page)
We hope you're excited to see more scenes being added to the game!
For anyone on Energeia's Council, you will be the ones deciding the character and content of the scene with your votes, so do think about it carefully!
The World Arcana 9th Selection
Remember the 9th Backer who hadn't yet chosen a heroine for a scene? Well, we got a reply from them confirming their choice!
Drumroll please...The one that was chosen by our (as of right now) last World Arcana Backer is...!
"Oh? So you would pick me for a scene? Haha, you clearly have good taste! Very well, let's make it one to remember...!"
Mary Drake!
The cheerful and free-spirited pirate of the seas, Captain Mary has been chosen! Perhaps it was those two huge...Cannons she has equipped that sealed the deal, eh?
*IMPORTANT: This choice is not final and still subject to change, as the Kickstarter is still ongoing.
Goods Sample Images
Some samples of the Steel Mug and coins have made their way to our doorstep, and we would love to share them with you!
We're sure that many of you have been curious to see what the coins would look like, as well as to see the mug designs actually put on the mug!
Without further ado, do take a gander!
Steel Mug
Teria's side of the mug
Carmilla's side of the mug
Could you picture yourself having a cup of Early Morning Cup of Joe with this mug? I suppose in this case it'd be a...Mug of Joe?
Alhazred Coins
What might perhaps be one of the more unique collectibles available in this campaign, do take a look!
As you can probably tell, the designs are the same.
The only thing that changes is the colour variant.
Can you imagine opening a chest full of these lovely coins? Sounds like a great time indeed!
I wonder what the currency value would be like? Perhaps something like... This piece of bread will cost you 1 Gold Carmilla and 1 Silver Carmilla...?
Or maybe used in a coin flip, it'd be like...Heads you get Carmilla, Tails you get...A horse.
Somehow depending on who you are, the latter might be more appealing...? I mean come on, it's a horse...! And it's on fire! And jumping over a moon! And it also has a gigantic... Uh... Ahem.
The World Arcana Character Choices + Information Regarding Acrylic Keychain Designs / 運命のアルカナキャラクターチョイス発表 + アクリルキーホルダーの選べるデザインについて

Good day, everyone!
A short, but pretty exciting update today!
You saw the title, so let us not waste anymore time!
World Arcana Character Choices
Of the 9 confirmed World Arcana Backers, we have received a reply/character request from 8 of them!
This unfortunately means that we still do not know who the last World Arcana backer will choose, but for now, we would like to introduce the characters currently chosen for new scenes!
*IMPORTANT: These choices are not final and still subject to change, as the Kickstarter is still ongoing.
Milia (2 Scenes)
"I thank you for supporting me. I promise to do my very best in order to answer your expectations!"
As the 'poster girl' for Gaia and 2nd place in the pre-KS popularity poll on both sides, it is certainly no surprise that she won over 2 backers and got a scene from each one!
Carmilla (1 Scene)
"Ohoho! Of course one as noble and dignified such as I would be chosen!"
And here is popularity poll top spot for the English audience, Carmilla! A loli Vampire Ojousama type, easy to see why someone would pick her!
Vanilla (1 Scene)
"Ah, of course Milady would get a scene...Wait, you're saying that I have one as well? Oh my...What an honour."
And of course, right behind her master, our resident Maid Vanilla also got a scene for herself! Hard to resist the allure of a bona-fide maid, after all...
Tamamo (1 Scene)
"Hmm? You would give me, and not Tomoe, a new scene? How flattering...I suppose I shall do my best."
Surely we saw this coming? The resident Nine-tailed Fox also got a backer to give her a scene! One simply cannot resist that...fluffy tail...
Teria (1 Scene)
"What? A new scene for me? Wow, thank you so much, Daddy! I love you!"
Ah, and here is the top spot for the Japanese side, the mysterious girl known as Teria! Were they taken in after being called Daddy one too many times from this devilish, impish little loli?
Ash (1 Scene)
"Hmph, to give me a new scene but not to Her Majesty Esteria...Well, I suppose I'll forgive your transgression just this once."
Certainly an... unexpected choice, some might say. But her somewhat fanatical ravings and abundance of rather amusing facial expressions might have won over a loyal fan to back a scene?
Turia (1 Scene)
"W-whaat? You're really giving me a scene? Wow...Thank you so much!"
Now surely nobody saw this one coming. That's right, someone bankrolled a scene for a sub heroine! The youngest of the Automaton sisters. A lovable looking loli who is in fact actually a merciless sadist...Sounds very similar to a certain serpentine loli from another VB game, wouldn't you agree?
*As mentioned earlier, there is still one more World Arcana Backer who is still undecided, and their choice will be revealed at a later date.
Information Regarding Acrylic Keychain Designs
We tweeted about this matter earlier this week, but we would like to reiterate it here in this update.
Due to an error on the VBGI Kickstarter JP translation site, Elmin was mistakenly shown as an option for the Acrylic Keychains when in reality he is not, and Titie was not shown as an option.
Left: Titie , Right: Elmin
Please double check that your desired keychain design is available before ordering!
