Studio Alaya and Dynamis One have released the newest PV and key visual for their upcoming project, Project KV. It is described as a nostalgic school action drama about girls with swords that takes place in Kapila, the Dormitory City. Its production is lead by members who previously worked on popular mobile game, Blue Archive. The scenario is written by isakusan, the former scenario director of Blue Archive. The art director is DoReMi, and they have previously designed and illustrated multiple characters for Blue Archive such as Hina, Arisu, Aru, Kayoko, and Iroha. Mitsukiyo is in charge of the project’s music, and they are also Blue Archive‘s music director.
You can check out the teaser promotional video (PV) below.
We are also got a sneak peek at some of the characters featured in the game. You can check out a screenshot of each of those characters below.
Of the four characters previewed, the official website was updated to give some details on Ohitome Kohane, the first character introduced. Kohane ran away from home due to her grandmother’s nagging. She found herself in Kapila and ended up joining Yunooka Dormitory. Now, she has no intention of going home, and she thinks hot springs are the best.
In celebration of the teaser’s release, Dynamis One shared a special illustration by DoReMi. You can check that out below.
In addition to this, key members of the staff (isakusan, DoReMi, Mitsukiyo) will be participating at Winter Comiket (C105) alongside Mx2J. Mx2J also worked on Blue Archive as an illustrator and character designer.
Project KV is planned to start in 2024. It is not clear what form of media the project will be as this has not been officially announced. However, isakusan did quote repost the Comiket participation post mentioning how excited they are to work on a visual novel again, so it’s possible Project KV will be a visual novel. For more information on the project, you can follow Dynamis One’s X account and check out the official website.
