This news broke last week, but I wasn’t able to mention it until now. At some point in the future there will be a manga series released for SINoALICE. No specific details, such as who will be illustrating it, have been released at this time except for the title of the first chapter, which is called “Dream of Bondage”. Please stay tuned for more info!

“SINoALICE comic has been decided!
Wait for more info.”

This news was first released by the official SINoALICE Twitter account.

J’Nique Nicole’s “All Things NieR:Automata” Parts 1 and 2

Posted on May 28, 2019 - 9:36 pm by Rekka Alexiel

Earlier in March, J’Nique Nicole suggested for fans to ask a bunch of questions about her involvement on the NieR:Automata soundtrack, and she’s just posted two videos answering them!

If I do a vlog about my experiences singing for the NieR: Automata soundtrack would you watch it? What would you guys like to know? Ask me anything and I might feature it in the vlog 😉

Also, if you haven’t seen it yet, have a look at the interview she did for me back in 2016. There were a bunch of questions in the Part 1 video that she had already answered there.
