On the website it states, "We regret to announce that English version "Touken Ranbu ONLINE" and Traditional Chinese version "刀劍亂舞ONLINE" are scheduled to end on 8/21/2023 (Mon) 8:59 PM PDT due to reduce the title of the game distribution on the Johren platform."

Is this weird wording or is Johren closing shop or something? Like consolidation or something.

They just have bad translation. It’s been like that from the start.

I’m pretty sad about this, but I suppose this will give more time to focus on the other games I play. Just wish they could have gone about announcing this in a better way.
