Klonoa: Dream Traveller of Noctis Sol was announced at San Diego Comic Con, and is due in August on ShiftyLook. If you’re not already fangirling like a windmill, how about word that The Big O artist Hitoshi Ariga is handling pencils? Oh yeah. Klonoa starred in a couple of late 90′s, early 00′s platformers which were pretty much a joy and delight in every way. Be right back, emailing another HD re-release request.

Kuma and Ganryu will not have swimsuits for obvious reasons: one is an animal, and the other wears a mawashi which is sort of like a swimsuit given that it doesn’t leave much to the imagination. School swimsuits will also be included. Apparently, this sort of thing is popular. Thanks, Andriasang.
