Yes it's happen, and apparently this time Alicesoft decided to do it by themselves instead of ask Mangagamer. As for me, while granted that I did say we didn't really need a sequel seeing that Evenicle story here is basically complete enough, I'm still interested with this seeing that it mean more gameplay VN. For more info, we also have both of Quof and Steiner working on the transaltion so you didn't need to worry about bad translation. As for mosaic, unfortunately it would be still there but then again I didn't care much about it, and beside it's not like that the artist would draw something under the mosaic. As for the plan, Alicesoft will release the trial that will cover up to the end of Chapter 1 at Steam in the upcoming few weeks later. Lastly I hope that they'll be able to release this in the near future. Here's the tweet from Alicesoft (They just set their English twitter a few days ago) for the proof in regard of the news itself.

Hello once again! I'm excited about this latest public release ^^ While I didn't manage to complete the Doll storyline as I hoped, I made some huge strides and I reckon it's going to be another reader's favourite. Sayori really does get the best stories xD Besides that, we've got the usual range of CGs illustrating scenes past and present, so look out for those. And for our Spanish readers, the script is still bang up to date with all the latest script translated and minor corrections and edits made elsewhere. Overall, I think this is a pretty solid update! As ever, you can find this month's release in PC, Linux, Mac and Android versions, on my Patreon or itch.io pages. I've also linked the most recent flowchart guide on the public news post on Patreon. Next month, the last public release before Christmas, we'll see the ending of the Doll storyline (although my Patrons have seen it already, hint hint~) and should have some progress made on another storyline. It'll be good to move onto something else after working on the doll stuff so long. Anyway, hope you all enjoy the new release! What's New Sayori's Doll storyline is now scripted and playable up to the fourteenth day, and outlined to a rough conclusion New CG for Sayori's Doll storyline New CG for Nozomi's Trance path New CG for Sayori's Alter storyline New CG for Hiroko's "Ticklish Hands" storyline CG for the Delusion storyline's rooftop scene has been expanded New character, Akiko, who appears in the Doll storyline Added a couple of new sound effects, which play during the Villainous Sleeper Agent and Sayori Doll storylines Word count is now around 235,500 Spanish localisation: Various edits and corrections to the existing script Known Issues Changing the language on a line where an animation occurs (like screen shake) will throw up an error. The rooftop CG that displays during the Delusion storyline will have to be unlocked again if you unlocked it previously

A few days ago, on Wednesday (11.11) Anri Kumaki has released new album. It sounds very promising:
