▍About Warau Ars Notoria
Warau Ars Notoria was launched in Japan on March 4, 2021, by Good Smile Company and Nitroplus. The mobile game is a 20th-anniversary project of visual novel video game developer Nitroplus. Otsuka Shinichiro, illustrator of “Summon Night” and “Re:Zero − Starting Life in Another World,” is in charge of the main character design.
The game’s story centers on “You,” who lost most of your memories and becomes a teacher at a secret academy where normal people can’t see. In the academy, there are girls known as “Pentagrams” who are learning how to become “proper ladies”. It seems you are living a busy life surrounded by them, but little did you know this is the prelude to battle against the “Knights”…
