This new Visual Novel, which just got recently released in Japan in October 2015, is having a kickstarter for an English release.
Here's some info from the kickstarter page:
“Libra” is a moe love story filled with fun and comedy, wrapped in a chunibyou style, vampire-battling universe. You play the main character, Shuma Kusanagi, as he struggles to uncover a secret about his birth after being bitten by a two thousand year old vampire.
Immerse yourself in a vast world with over 50 hours of gameplay and nearly 1 million Japanese characters (the equivalent of 8 light novels).
XERO's wish is simple: They want fans from the West to experience the newest Japanese visual novels. To make this a reality, VN makers will need to first consider players from overseas, and then keep them in mind throughout the game production work flow. If they do this, that is how we can all enjoy the latest trends together! In an industry where foreign players get to play the newest games... this will help pull the Japanese visual novel industry into a new future.
Every year there are about 300 new titles released on the Japan market, but international players don't get the chance to experience all the many types of moe. XERO wants to include fans all over the world in enjoying new moe together. That`s a bright future for visual novels, so let's start the journey now with “Libra”!

How are you all feeling about the move to bring new VNs that just got recently released in Japan over to the west?
Do you think it's doable? Or do you feel that these VNs first need to build a fan base like, MUV-LUV and Clannad?
