In the future, Senran Kagura producer Kenichiro Takaki hopes to cut down on the time it takes to release new entries in other territories. “I’d really like things to expand to where we can narrow the gap between the releases in Japan [and the rest of the world], as much as possible,” Takaki told Inside Games.

Takaki also discussed his thoughts on the reaction from foreign fans:

“They’re so passionate, and it always surprises me. People from other countries who purchase the game would often take a picture after making their purchase and line it up next to their country’s flag saying ‘check this out’ and then sending it to me.”

“At first, I thought of it as a specialized product for Japan. I didn’t even think about releasing it outside of Japan. And now, it has expanded across Asia, North America, and Europe, and I’m very grateful.”

Senran Kagura 2: Deep Crimson managed to sell 46,494 units in its first week on the Japanese market. Unfortunately for Marvelous, that’s the lowest debut for any Senran Kagura game and it’s about half of what Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus did at launch. Deep Crimson also sold through only 49.13 percent of its initial shipment while Shinovi Versus, the series’ last entry, sold 94,324 copies at launch with a 93.37% sell-through rate.

Dragon Ball Heroes: Ultimate Mission 2 also hit Japan last week, but the game performed quite a bit better. It had a low sell-through rate (42.89 percent) like Senran Kagura 2, but the game moved 81,584 copies. The title is currently on track with Ultimate Mission 1, which sold 88,386 copies in its first week and went on to sell 290,000 copies.

Senran Kagura 2: Deep Crimson eats up quite a bit of space on an SD card. The game weighs in at 17,100 blocks – larger than the last 3DS entry Senran Kagura Burst. Of course, Senran Kagura 2 can also be purchased as a retail cartridge in stores.
