Here are some highlights from tonight’s NicoLive Broadcast:

*  They again showed the two TV spot videos, both the Normal and Hard version.  They commented that since the “hard” version is a little more grotesque, that one would play late at night when wee-little kids might not see it.  haha

*  They also showed two variations of the TV spots with Mikhail sounding extremely *happy* at the end of the clip, and the other sounding extremely *unhappy*.  I’m pretty sure both of those were only meant as a gag. heh

***THIS WAS THE HINT THEY HAD TALKED ABOUT DURING THE BROADCAST. IT MAY OR MAY NOT BE SPOILERISH, SO READ WITH CAUTION***

*  Voice actor Peter announced that he will be in DOD3 as well.  He also provided voices for Angelus in DOD1 & 2 as well as Shiro in Nier.  It was a bit of a shock, however, to hear his voice as a dragon named “Mikhael”.  Could this be Mikhail’s parent…or possibly the previous incarnation of the dragon, since we are told that dragons have eternal souls.  Perhaps Mikhael died and thusly became the naive/baby dragon that we know of Mikhail.  Interesting.

*  We were able to see a short gameplay demonstration of the DLC for Furiae’s costume for Zero.  They are also thinking of a proper price for a bundle of DLC costumes including Eris, Mana, and Nier outfits for Zero.

*  Apparently 63.3% of people asked have already reserved the 10th Anniversary Box set.  They also offered extra copies for sale during the broadcast, but were again sold out within mere minutes.

*  Aoi Eir displayed a new PV for the theme song “Kuroi Uta”, which will be available with her new album, slated for release in January.  More info on that later!

Here’s a short clip Sony Entertainment Japan released thus far, the first three minutes of the 6-minute song.  Still excellent quality!!

*  A nice shikishi signed by Uchida Maaya and Toyama Nao and DOD1 Midgard T-shirt were the giveaways for this week’s keyword provided by Aoi Eir!  Congrats to whomever won those!  😀

*  Last but not least is the *new* trailer, the OPENING MOVIE!  For this NicoLive broadcast, a few scenes and spoken lines by characters were bleeped out, but still…it’s an awesome video!  You can check it out from the Official DOD3 Web site… although it wouldn’t play for me.  Maybe too many people are watching it now!  xD

SE just uploaded the Opening to their official YouTube account:
