Know the Pig Trivia #3

Here's the final pig trivia, which was released alongside the anime pre-screening event.  We got a bunch of other news as well which I'll be covering in this post; and be sure to let me know if I've missed anything.

Trivia - Pigs are smart.


Don't forget to check out this trivia's video with Matsuoka's narration.

"Pigs are capable learners, and are able to quickly learn to operate devices that dispense food or water via a pedal.  Furthermore, if you're able to make them associate a music with food, you'll be able to direct them to where you want them to go by playing that music at the location."


In other news...

As announced during the pre-screening event's panel session, Heat the Pig Liver is also getting a web radio broadcast featuring both , which you'll be able to listen to when the first episode goes up on October 13.  It'll be available as an Onsen program, and on Aniplex's Youtube Channel.  Keep in mind these are time limited, so check them out as soon as you can.

We already knew about Brace being voiced by 能登麻美子 (Noto Mamiko) from PV2, but now we got our first look at her character design.


There's also a special edition of volume 1 being distributed with a new SS based off of the anime's OP, and it uses the key visual from the anime as its cover.  It's titled "The Reason Why Flowers Bloom Is" (花が咲く理由は).

Furthermore, the first 60 pages of volume 8 is now available for preview (this includes all the color illustrations which I will not post for spoiler reasons, but you're welcome to look it up on your own).  We're just 1 week away from the anime's air date now.


10/2 Edit Update:

"The Pig Prince" SS was actually removed some time after I posted its translation, but it was announced today that it's been brought back and you can find it on this page below, alongside some promotional news that I've written about in the PV2 blog post.

10/4 Edit Update:

I just realized I forgot to translate the character entry info when I saw the anime twitter account tweet this out, so here you go.

"Mr. Pig came from another world, right?"

A Yesma girl who always prays to the stars.
She previously served a gravekeeper household.
Even plain clothes can't hide her great figure...


10/5 Edit Update:

Volume 8 releases tomorrow!  Dengeki Bunko tweeted out the titles for each store's bundled bonus SS.  Some extra context on when these SS take place is in this tweet.

◆Animate "About When We First Met"
◆Melonbooks "About When We'll Meet Again"
◆Gamers "About When We'll Finally Meet"


10/6 Edit Update:

A new page has been added to the anime site that should be updated weekly with an overview of the upcoming episode.  They also added a funny little feature where you have to click a button and have Jess translate Mister Pig's text.

They'll also be broadcasting a special program just before episode 1 airs, which you'll be able to watch on Youtube (and a few other places).  Check it out if you're interested.


Episode one is less than 24 hours away!


11/20 Edit Update:

It looks like Aniplex USA has gone back and translated past promotional trivia material.
