Azur Lane and its parent company YoStar have been doing a lot to expand their overseas English-speaking fanbase. We saw them at Anime Expo in Los Angeles where they shared a booth with Girls Frontline (another game I enjoy playing) but Azur Lane definitely had the stronger presence. The game turned one year old (counted from the beginning of the English public beta) recently and those efforts are still going strong. To celebrate the first English anniversary Yostar has decided to release the "Azur Lane 1st Anniversary Illustration Collection."

The Azur Lane 1st Anniversary Illustration Collection is not a new thing; Yostar released one in Japanese. This one features new splash art and an English translation which I'm sure all of us can appreciate. A page count has not been released but YoStar says there are illustrations by 51 artists. Each copy of the 2000 unit run is serialized and preorders close on 9/12. Orders begin shipping on 10/12. Players from the US, Canada, UK, Germany, and France will be able to order directly from Yostar and for anyone else there are more than a few shipping proxies you can use. Fans in other countries willing to wait may be able to order direct during the next print run but whenever that will be is unknown. I'd suggest placing an order now if you want to make sure you get it.

As of time of writing there are about 1200 copies left in the preorder. The price is $48 per book plus a fee for shipping ($10 for US, more for everyone else). If you purchase at least four books shipping in the US is free. Please visit https://shop.azurlane.yo-star.com/products/azur-lane-1st-anniversary-illustration-collection to place your order.
