Make babies, exorcise the Impurity!
We have some new information about Spike's upcoming RPG! It's called
Conception: Please Bear My Child! This edgy RPG title is being developed under the supervision of
Dangan Rompa Kibō no Gakuen to Zetsubō no Kōkōsei producer Zentoku Terasawa and assistant producer Yūichirō Saitō. As such, it has garnered plenty of attention. In this article, we unveil the game setting and plot synopsis.
Kanata
Ah, Itsuki.
Hey, where were you?
Itsuki
Mahiru, I came to ask you for a/an 愛好の儀.
Translator's note: 愛好の儀 is untranslateable--even native Japanese are
asking what the hell it means on Japanese forums. -Den
■ Story
You are Itsuki Yuge, a freeloading teenager living with your cousin and childhood friend, Mahiru Kosugi, without paying rent. On the day of high school graduation, Mahiru approaches you with some shocking news.
"I think I'm pregnant..."
Upon hearing this surprising confession, you are both suddenly whisked away through a gate of light and off to a parallel world called Granvania. There is a disturbance in the stars, and the magical world of Granvania is on the verge of a catastrophic crisis brought about by "The Impurity." The Impurity can only be cleansed by a child formed by the union of a
Marebito* and a Priestess of the Twelve Constellations. Itsuki is treated by everyone as a
Marebito*. So in order to return back to his own world and save the world of Granvania, he must request something of the Priestesses.
"Please bear my child...!"
■ Itsuki Yuge
A high school student with no ambition. Though apathetic, he has a
strong sense of justice. He's nice to the ladies, but impatient and
thick-headed. It's his destiny to become a Marebito*.
*Translator's note: "Marebito" (稀人), lit. "rare person."
My guess would be that a Marebito is the word for "human" on the
world of Granvania.

■ Mahiru Kosugi
A young girl destined to be a Priestess of Virgo. As Itsuki's childhood
pal and cousin, she has no feelings for Itsuki.
Translator's note: "no feelings for Itsuki?" Shit, I would hope not!

■ Develop deep relationships with the 12 Priestesses of the Constellations, and make stronger babies
In order to battle the Impurity that threatens to exterminate the parallel world of Granvania, the protagonist must have Star Children with the 12 Priestesses of the Constellations. To have more powerful children, have intimate relationships with the Priestesses.
- This is my money
- This is money for my train fare back home
- I don't have any
Kanata
I know.
Mana gave you some money, didn't she?
Ruka
Itsuki! Now what are you
planning to do to me!?
■ Together with your Star Children, banish the Impurity plaguing the Stardust Labyrinth
The player must go through each section of the Labyrinth with his Star Children, clearing the Impurity along the way. You can battle against the Impurity with a party of 13 players. It seems that the battle system places emphasis on how you use positioning to attack.

Translator's note: You may see this title translated elsewhere as any of the following:
- Please Have My Child(ren)!
- Please Bear My Child(ren)!
- Please Give Birth to My Child(ren)!
- Any of the above, with "Child(ren)" replaced by "Baby / Babies"
They are all correct. And there is no distinction between the singular and plural in Japanese so the translation can go either way. -Den
