They should begin shipping/transit in earnest from the 22nd and should arrive at your doorstep by the 26th (not counting time spent at customs if the shipment is held up, or those who live in more remote areas), so definitely keep an eye out for your goodies!

*Note: The package might say that the sender was from IZANAGI (イザナギ. Izanagi is our shipping partner for this project, so that package will indeed contain your goods. Please don't refuse the package just because the sender's name isn't Ninetail or JAST!

Regarding the order confirmation email from 株式会社イザナギ/ 株式会社イザナギからの受注メールについて

*Japanese Translation Below (日本語訳は下の方にあります)
Good day, everyone.
As I'm sure our physical backers are aware, earlier today, an email from 株式会社イザナギ (Izanagi Ltd) arrived in the inbox of the email used to back the VBHI Kickstarter.
In today's update, we would like to briefly talk about what exactly that email was all about.
First off, we are very sorry for the sudden email.
It was the result of a misfire, so to speak, on the part of the automated email system that our delivery partner over at 株式会社イザナギ uses. After the order details for your VBHI order on Backerkit was punched into their system, it automatically sent out a mass email confirming your order.
So yes, the email is a form of an automated, final order confirmation email of sorts.
The prices listed are lower than the sale price because we have adjusted them to account for customs or taxes that our overseas backers have to worry about when it comes to overseas purchases. They are not indicative of the actual price of the item, be it the sale price or wholesale price or anything of that nature.
Due to a mistake in the shipping system, there is a chance that the items listed on your order might be mistaken. Please do not worry as it is currently being investigated and will be fixed in time for proper delivery.
Despite everything, we hope that you are excited at the news that the shipping preparations for VBHI goodies are moving forward!
And one more thing, the delivery method that will be used this time is via DHL.
VenusBlood FRONTIER Fandiscs Kickstarter Update + VBHI Guest Units Spotlight! / VenusBlood FRONTIER FDのキックスターターは近日中開催 + VBHI ゲストユニットスポットライト

Good day, folks!
Just a quick and simple update today, so let's get started then!
VenusBlood FRONTIER Fandiscs Kickstarter Update
As mentioned in the previous update, we were going to go forward with a VenusBlood FRONTIER Fandiscs mini Kickstarter, and today we would like to give you slightly more detailed information!
We mentioned late November last update, but to be more specific, it's more like...mid-November.
Well, mid to late November? So... we basically moved it up a little.
And that's about it! Once again, if you haven't yet finished VBFI, now would be the ideal time to do so before the fandisc Kickstarter that is chock full of spoilers begins!
VBHI Guest Units Spotlight
Aw yeah, bringing up the guest units again! Always exciting.
Anyway, let's get this show on the road!
VenusBlood Brave Units
With a total of 6 (+3 Mini Guardians & Hain's awakened form too) units, VBB is the title that will have the most guest characters in VBHI! Does that mean much in the grand scheme of things...? Yes, yes it does.
Most likely, people are curious what characters from a JRPG (of sorts) would look like in an SRPG, and thus they were voted in!
By the way, don't the 3 mini guardians look absolutely adorable standing there next to their respective mothers? Do look closely, you might have missed them.
Also, considering the fact Hain is holding like, a grimoire, doesn't it make him look like the tactician type a little more than the other 2 protagonists mentioned below? Even though all 3 can technically count as the crafty, tactician types in their respective games.
VenusBlood FRONTIER & RAGNAROK Units
With 4 units (+ their various forms), VBF&R units take second place in terms of numbers.
But then again we're mixing 2 games so that's kind of cheating, no? Crafty fella, that Loki.
Considering VBF was the first successfully kickstarted VB, Loki getting in was kind of a no-brainer, perhaps?
As for the other 3 goddesses, they might be an unfamiliar sight for those who only know of VBFI? Well they're from the direct sequel to FRONTIER, VB RAGNAROK. They were quite popular there, so it makes sense they'd get in here, too.
I guess their other forms might constitute as spoilers for Ragnarok, though? Oh dear.
VenusBlood Gaia Units
And in 3rd place(?), we have VenusBlood Gaia with 3 units(+ their various forms) coming in from it.
Erm...Yeah. Gaia has a form of cult-like popularity in the VB series in particular, especially in terms of characters, so it was perhaps only natural to see units from it get some guest spots in VBHI.
VenusBlood Lagoon & Abyss Units
Lagoon with 2 units(+ Tia's other form), and Abyss with...Well, 1 unit(+ her other form).
Considering LAGOON came after HOLLOW, unfortunately some skills that were invented later cannot be reverse implemented, and thus you could say that both Tia and Revia suffered a bit of a nerf when it came to their stats and skills...But I guess such is the side-effect of travelling worlds.
As for Lucina, the 'original dimension slash queen'...
Erm, yeah, she clearly got a buff here, considering how old her game is.
What's that? What a fast and loose update today's one is?
Well hey, VBHI comes out in like, 22 days, so we're feeling a bit festive, see?
Take a load off, friends, and we hope you're all excited for the release of VBHI coming soon!
Artbook Sample Pages + VenusBlood Fandiscs Kickstarter Coming Soon!/アートブックサンプルページ公開 + VBFD キックスターターが開催されます!

*Japanese Translation Below (日本語訳は下の方にあります)
Good day, folks!
A rather straightforward title so today's update should be an easy one to understand!
Without further ado, here are some sample pages from the 'Character Introductions' portion of the artbook!
We hope that you enjoyed this sneak peek at a few pages of the artbook, and for anyone who has purchased the artbook, we hope that you look forward to being able to read the other pages soon!
VenusBlood Fandiscs Kickstarter Coming Soon!
I wonder if you remember in an earlier update, we had discussed the possibility of running a mini Kickstarter for the VenusBlood Fandiscs? Well, here we are!
Well, specifically, the VenusBlood FRONTIER fandiscs (3 in total).
For anyone unfamiliar or who may have missed the last update, fandiscs are basically like, extra content CDs. Think of it as like a CD containing a short after-story for specific heroines from the base game.
For anyone who is already familiar with the specific VenusBlood Fandiscs available, you might be wondering why we are going with the FRONTIER fandiscs instead of the HOLLOW fandiscs, especially considering the current project?
To put it simply, well...Hollow isn't even out yet, yes?
And, well, 'after stories' are perhaps a little spoilery, would you not agree?
We'll certainly be keeping a close eye on this mini Kickstarter for the FRONTIER fandiscs, so hey, if it does well, maybe one day we'll see one for the HOLLOW fandiscs, too!
With that said, we plan to launch this mini Kickstarter for the VBF fandiscs soon, likely late November, and we hope to see you all there!
*By the way, as the FDs contain after-stories and stories that come after the base game, we would highly recommend completing VBFI first before viewing the fandisc kickstarter as there will be spoilers on the page itself.
