Well, I watched the first episode of the event. After getting the reward, it'll pop a message saying if you remain in the space for 3 minutes, you'll be kicked out to your personal space. You don't need to do anything but take pictures, and the reward is a Toro item that snuggles your arm. The Ash Tree was moved near the Games Space, so we might be getting our Halloween event in Home Square like before, but probably until episode 2 and 3. Afro is looking for information for episodes 2 and 3, on where and when we need to go.
The 2nd episode will have you doing the cheering gesture for the Kappa reeling in a demon's heart through a crack in the pond. Red Hood from Soul Sacrifice Delta makes her appearance helping Toro, Kuro, and Kappa against a league of dark demon rats. The rewards will be a male only Toro, Kuro, and Ghost arm item, which is a better upgrade to the Toro arm item from the 1st episode, plus a nice Red Hood figurine. If you pay attention to the base there's part of the Home logo. I'm pretty sure there will be 3 more coming to complete the Home logo perhaps next event week. Episode 3 and 4 have been announced, including the times starting Oct. 27th, so far: 10/27 - 19:00 (1st ep), 21:00 (2nd ep) 10/28 - 20:00 (2nd ep) 10/29 - 11:00 (1st ep), 13:00 (2nd ep) 10/30 - 12:00 (1st ep), 14:00 (2nd ep), 16:00 (3rd ep), 18:00 (4th ep) 10/31 - 11:00 (3rd ep), 13:00 (4th ep), 18:00 (3rd ep), 20:00 (4th ep) 11/1 - 15:00 (1st ep), 17:00 (2nd ep), 19:00 (3rd ep), 21:00 (4th ep) 11/2 - 12:00 (3rd ep), 14:00 (4th ep), 20:00 (3rd ep), 22:00 (4th ep) 11/3 - 15:00 (1st ep), 17:00 (2nd ep), 19:00 (3rd ep), 21:00 (4th ep) 11/4 - 18:00 (3rd ep), 20:00 (4th ep) 11/5 - 11:00 (3rd ep), 13:00 (4th ep)
Thanks Recca bring us the lastest info It's a bit strange to me, pshome japan is trying to release Ep3 & Ep4 early. Something is going on.
Maybe they want to make sure everyone gets to see all four before time runs out? Say, does anyone know if English translations exist of the episodes so far? There are long stretches where I have no idea what Toro and Kuro are saying and I admit I get a little bored. Fell asleep during one of the 5am eps. Heehee.
Things to do: Episode 2: Do the Cheer gesture when the Kappa is fishing. Episode 3: Toro and Kuro need help making a huge LocoRoco tree in Oshaberi Farm. In order, do this for each step: Dance, Point, Pose, Laugh, and Bow. Episode 4: When Maou-sama is battling the Dark Peakvox Monster pets, do the following for each: Pose, Move around, Move around, and Pose. You'll get a smaller and combined version of Red Hood and LocoRoco figurines in one for using the right moves. If you mess up once, you won't get it. The reward will appear after Toro and Kuro lands into the battle arena. You'll also get the Maou-sama figurine reward with the bottom right Home logo for watching the entire episode. Also, remember to take pictures. Episode 5 will begin on Nov. 5th, so it will be the final episode. The other 4 episodes will be held only three days during that week, so be sure to collect the rewards for each and perform all tasks.
Times for final week of Japan Home event: 11/6 - 10:00 (1st ep), 12:00 (2nd ep), 14:00 (3rd ep), 16:00 (4th ep), 18:00 (5th ep) 11/7 - 13:00 (5th ep), 20:00 (5th ep) 11/8 - 13:00 (1st ep), 15:00 (2nd ep), 17:00 (3rd ep), 19:00 (4th ep), 21:00 (5th ep) 11/9 - 15:00 (5th ep), 22:00 (5th ep) 11/10 - 13:00 (1st ep), 15:00 (2nd ep), 17:00 (3rd ep), 19:00 (4th ep), 21:00 (5th ep) 11/11 - 20:00 (5th ep) 11/12 - 13:00 (5th ep)
Good news! Just found out that this week is not the end! Next week will be FINAL week to get in as many episodes, rewards, and pictures as you can until Nov. 19th. Episode 6 will be the final episode, and times will be posted on here soon. For Episode 5, you'll be heading toward Glittering Sands Halloween themed beach, and you'll be performing the Move, Dance, and Pose mini-game as you did in the previous Halloween events from Sony's Home Square. You'll earn a smaller figurine of Gravity Daze Kitten and Maou-san together in one for playing. Getting a perfect game doesn't give you anything extra. After Episode 5 ends, you'll receive the Kitten figurine with the last part of the Home logo.
Finally, I joined the Jp Halloween Event ep5, got 2 figures rewards. Oh, I am surprize there will be ep6 next week, Wow !

Looks like 11pm tonight (Thursday) Eastern Standard Time. From what I have read, you dance during first half (it's 55 mins long!). Then you do following moves when the characters indicated are on screen: Green Kappa : Cheer Farm Girl in green dress: Wave Zombie maid: Pose Granzella characters: Dance
Thanks so much for the information, Karen. The last rewards from this episode are Toro and Kuro hugging your arm hand item for male and female, and an awesome cyber orb LMO called LMO-Heart. Karen forgot to add one more to the group, so when the blue bar shows up on your screen, do this in order when it appears: Toro, Kuro, Jack o' Lantern, & Ghost stage - Dance or Pose (I usually dance) Toro and Kuro stage - Cheer Green Kappa stage (after he talks) - Cheer Oshaberi Farm Girl stage (after she talks) - Wave Zombie Maid Fran-chan stage (after she talks) - Pose Granzella characters stage (after they talk) - Dance
I didn't get the LMO. Followed instructions, so not sure what happened. I got in at the last minute, was in and out of the space 3x before it would take. Ended up with a small group. Not sure if that may have affected the award or not. I'll try again on the 18th, episode 6 is at 11pm EST that night.
You may had missed the mini-games from the start. I have the list to guide you through them above. Karen forgot one gesture for Toro and Kuro and it's added now. Just whenever the blue bar appears, you need to perform that action from a certain stage. Also, come by there very early to have it load for you and get the timer from it. Good luck!
Thanks Recca! Well, it seems like I did everything, including the cheering for Toro & Kuro. I was following what the others were doing but I may not have done enough for the T&K stage. Too busy dancin'! I was in the space an hour early but realized that it didn't load properly before the 1/2 hour to showtime mark. That's when I was trying to get out and back in and the PS3 crashed twice. Never got the timer and was in a room with less than 10 people just a few minutes before 11pm. No pics floating around or music. Then at 11:01, it abruptly loaded the story with Toro & Kuro standing in front of the crowd, "talking" mid-sentence. The group I was with ended up in the story with a lot more people, who were probably there at the very beginning. I thought it was kinda cool how it just started up like that. Really didn't expect it to work at all.
I don't think anyone needs to be too concerned. I got everything and I'm sure what I did wasn't perfect
Hee, not really super concerned. I just want to figure out how not to miss the LMO the next time around. I only have one more shot at it since I can only play the late game, my time.
