THE HISTORY OF SISTER PRINCESS The history of Sister Princess can be traced back to March 1999, when it first appeared in the monthly bishoujo magazine Dengeki G's. There were only nine sisters then (not 12); readers got to vote for their most favourite, and following tremendous response from the fans, the magazine decided to serialise Sister Princess. In March 2000, a decision was made to renew the series, this time by featuring the short letters that the girls wrote to their beloved brother. Another three sisters were also added to the family-Haruka, Yotsuba, and Aria. The PlayStation game--the sisters find their voices. The TV-anime...disappointing, to say the least. On Mar 8, 2001, the game version of Sister Princess--about the brother spending a month with all 12 sisters, and featuring original artwork by Tenhiro Naoto--was released on the Sony PlayStation. Priced at 6800yen (9800yen for the limited edition), the game was the third best-selling title in Japan (based on Famitsu magazine) in its first week of release. The TV-anime series also followed a month later (4 Apr, 2001). In July 2001, a new series of stories began in Dengeki G's, right up till April 2002. While the magazine was preparing for yet another renewal of the Sister Princess stories for its May 2002 issue, the 'premium edition' of the Sister Princess games (the original plus two other Christmas and Valentine 'side stories') was released for the Dreamcast on Mar 28, 2002.
