sakura_taisen

A video game series produced by Sega and Red Entertainment, beginning in 1996. It consists of five main games, which are hybrid tactical RPG/dating sims, and numerous spinoffs in various genres. There are also several anime adaptations, a manga adaptation of the first game, and even live-action performances by the voice actors.

The fifth game was released in America in 2010 (five years after its Japanese release) under the title [b]Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love[/b], and was the only game in the series that released outside of Japan until the reboot was released overseas under the title [b]Sakura Wars[/b] in 2020. Despite this, many of the series' anime adaptations were licensed and received English releases complete with dubs - though the OVA based on V was ironically never released overseas.
