...it's a Japanese arcade game?!

Completely shitty bio translations...

Top guy is a university student, was (going?) on a to trip to America when the zombies came
Japanese high school student. Art club member and kind hearted.
American bartender at a hotel lounge. Used to be in the US Navy.
Half American half Japanese tour guide.

(Yes, seriously, the high school girl is the only one without "America" in her profile... And yet for all this American the English in the trailer is uh...)

Japanese names tend to be a clusterfuck even when people aren't trying to be unique (I'm pretty sure it's part of why the business card thing exists), so I can really only say the American is "Jordan Blake"/"Blake Jordan" (any of the many variations of spelling either one has are possible, as long as its pronounced the same).

edit: Apparently this is slightly old news (weekish) but few English places have talked about it.

That's hardly news. I just got back from Tokyo and there's been ads in the arcades about this game for weeks.

Interesting. Just shows how slow the western "news" is then that most sites are only reporting about it now (like right now).
