Having a keen eye for ossan-related goods, I've recently came upon this series from the new drama CD label "milky chain" - seems like I've just found the right drama CD series for this niche!
Ojisama Shinshi-Roku is supposed to be a series of CDs with stories about some rather famous older characters. This series also makes use of the "dummy-head" microphone, letting the listeners experience the characters act around them and feel closer to them.
So far, two CDs have been announced (and here's hope more are in production), with the following release info:
1st CD
Title: Ojisama Shinshi-Roku "Nosferatu"
Release date: August 14th 2013
Main cast: Toudou Kyosuke (東堂京介)
2nd CD
Title: Ojisama Shinshi-Roku "Mochizuki no Kimi"
Release date: September 11th 2013
Main cast: Senbi Haruto (線引春斗)
Each CD is being sold at 2100 JPY for the regular version and 2415 JPY for the limited tokuten version. The tokuten included is an extra CD with a shorter story, and there are three different extra stories, each from different shops - this action is harsh on collectors, forcing people to often choose only the one they like the best... I really hope to stumble across the tokuten elsewhere... (_´A`);;
The first CD's main character is Count Dracula, who invites the listener to his castle, to take upon your blood (and body~).
Preorders for the tokuten version include the following shops and extra stories:
milky chain - "200 years later"
Animate - "Bon voyage"
Stellaworth - "Return as a monster"
The second CD's main character is Michinaga (a Japanese ruler who lived through late 9th century to early 10th century), who captures the listener to himself as inspiration for his poem writings.
Preorders for this one's tokuten version will contain the following extras:
milky chain - "Writing overnight"
Animate - "Book of pillows"
Stellaworth - "Light dreams"
Voice samples for both CDs can be listened in milky chain's website (oh, by the way, it's R18, so... please put your headphones before listening~). The seiyuu for this series uses pseudonyms, but I've yet to find out their real identities - I am assuming they have previously voiced for the Ojisama Senka drama CD series though, since Ojisama Shinshi-Roku's staff claimed to have some aid from that team...
I've preordered them, of course - probably going to try doing a review when I get my hands in it (which should take a while, considering Japan and my current location are very far through the globe).
This same label, milky chain, have also announced two other drama CD/series (?), however, I won't be reviewing these, although I am curious if any fellow otome blogger will review them ^^
