About

A new site has opened for Hakuouki Sweet School Life on 26th April 2013! With many undetermined information and only some released. Hakuouki: SSL Is a "Dōjinshi" or official fan-published spin-off of the SSL that was featured in the Zuisouroku fandisc; Rather than SSL being a clip-note like in Zuisouroku, SSL is it's own game, where a change of settings, from the end of a Shogunate period to a modern academic theme, takes stage. Although the design of the characters are different, the nature of it remains.

This game is, by no means to be confused with the SSL in Zuisouroku, however the values of the two games are the same.
