An Introduction To The Heaven Burns Red Announcement Live Streams

Heaven Burns Red (Hebuban) is one of my favorite games these days. It's in my opinion the ultimate sociage, catalyzing everything good and bad with the current Japanese game industry. On Thursdays, every two weeks, there’s a live stream revealing upcoming updates for the game. I like watching the streams and writing summaries. I want to keep track of the numerous changes and updates the game goes through, but most notably, I want to write down all the fun moments happening on stream so I can check them again.

The streams always feature:

• Maekawa Ryoko -  Seiyuu of Yukki
• Amami Yurina - Seiyuu of Tsukasacchi
• Producer Kakinuma Yohei

Sometimes some guests are present as well.

One of the funniest moments is whenever the seiyuu comment the newly revealed Styles/Memorias, hilariously analyzing every single aspect of the character's outfit, pose, weapon, etc. They spend a lot of time talking about the illustrations and the 3D models, with Amami Yurina going in "Yurioji mode".

I used to do these Hebuban live stream summaries via Twitter threads but stopped once Twitter went to an even nastier trashbin with the Ero Mollusk buyout (He’s so trash that this is rude to mollusks around the world, sorry for offending you mollusks). Now I'm doing these summaries here. At some point, I’d like to republish the old summaries on Twitter into articles. I already have them backed up safely.

All pictures in the articles are screenshots taken during the stream and are of low quality. You should check out the game’s official Twitter for original-size artworks.
