Clock Zero – Outline
Next week I should have the mags with news, but for now, here is the outline of Clock Zero, the newest Otomate title for the PS2, set for November.
The main character, Kurou Nadeshiko, is a 6th-grade student and kind of a sheltered rich girl. She lives a normal, fairly happy life, and has a childhood friend Riichirou. But she starts having strange dreams almost every night of a desolate world, with a black sky cut across with red and blue.
One day Nadeko and Riichirou are summoned by their homeroom teacher, Kaga Akira. There are also six other students there who are generally known as troublemakers. The teacher tells them all that as troublemakers, they have to do a special assignment.
Forced to work together, the students work on the assignment slowly and with difficulty, uncovering the truth along the way.
Then, a mysterious person, who Nadeshiko has seen in her dreams, appears, and the wheels of fate begin turning…
The art is pretty…but 6th-graders? That’s like…11 year olds. And there’s at least one character that’s younger. I probably won’t pre-order this, though I might get it later.

Oh but well.. grade 6 in Harry Potter is equal to being 16. XD
I.. like the concept.. it sounds like it could turn out to be some good mystery, which could make me bear with such young characters (if they really are that young, character art looks more like 13-15 to me, err well.. and the teacher 20+’ish) but.. I wonder, if the young characters mean it’s aimed at a younger audience it might not have such good mystery after all.. :/
Yeah, I mean, maybe the’re 6th-graders the same way that TeniPuri characters are in junior high (as in, not even vaguely realistic)?
It does sound like an interesting story, depending on how the mystery comes out and what it is…this makes me want to work on Steelwood again…
