Heey, Sakura Wars 2 got a fan translation out now!

And that's when I realized I never actually drawn Orihime before. Or Reni for a very long time so...

Sakura Wars 2: Thou Shalt Not Die Receives Full English Fan Translation After 27 Years-Noisy Pixel

A group of fans has released an English patch for the classic Sega Saturn RPG Sakura Wars 2: Thou Shalt Not Die, initially released for the Sega Saturn in 1998.

The title also saw ports to PC, Dreamcast, and PSP, but no version has ever been officially localized. This translation project was announced in January 2023.

About Sakura Wars 2: Thou Shalt Not Die & English Patch

This dramatic adventure sequel occurs one year after the first game, following the protagonist Imperial Japanese Navy Ensign Ichiro Ogami and the Flower Division of the Imperial Combat Revue. The group protects Tokyo from various political and supernatural forces in a fitting follow-up to the success of the first Sakura Wars.

This franchise is well-known for its blend of tactical combat, visual novel-style presentation, and dating simulation elements, with this particular entry unfolding across 13 in-game episodes.

Instructions, as well as the necessary patch files, for the Sakura Wars 2 English patch can be obtained via the SegaXtreme site.

The 1.0 patch includes the following content translations:

Story dialog

Battle dialog

Minigames

Battle menus

System menus

Added subtitles to movies

Boss images

Theater room names

Load Screens

Bootup screen

Everything within Long Day

The team also uploaded a video commemorating the patch’s launch, which was made to recreate one of the game’s original Japanese TV commercials.
