Mayochiki! ~Mayoeru shitsuji to chikin na ore to~

Well, it was pretty amusing today when Yukira sent me a picture about this new novel. Right now I have no clue about its content or plot, but the thing that made me curious about is the artwork.



Take a good look at the pictures above? Is it somewhat familiar with you? If so, then you have probably played Baldr Series. Yep. The character designer, without a doubt, is Kikuchi Seiji. I realized the art immediately because nobody beside him has this kind of style (the face, eyes and the arms of the characters).

Here is what I took from the Japanese wikipedia :

According to wiki, it claims that the novel has been given the Rookie of Year award by Mediafactory, and the author's name is Asano Hajime, which means "the beginning of the morning". This name is very new to me, and I hope someone will upload the raw somewhere so I can read the novel. :)
