Kenichirō Takaki, producer of the Senran Kagura series, posted on his English Twitter account on Thursday that he would like to localize the Valkyrie Drive: Bhikkhuni and Uppers games outside of Japan.
It's not official. But I hope to launch localized versions of both #ValkyrieDrive Bhikkhuni and #Uppers outside Japan in the near future! :)

Marvelous launched Takaki's Valkyrie Drive -Bhikkuni- game for the PlayStation Vita last December in Japan. Valkyrie Drive -Bhikkuni- is a part of the Valkyrie Drive multimedia project that also includes Marvelous' "beautiful girl sexy social" smartphone game Valkyrie Drive -Siren-. The Valkyrie Drive: Mermaid- television anime series starring Mikako Izawa and Yuka Iguchi premiered last October.
The PlayStation Vita brawler action game Uppers was originally slated for an April 21 release in Japan for 6,980 yen (about US$60). However, game developer Marvelous announced that it would change the release date and price. Marvelous confirmed the new release date and price as July 14 for 4,980 yen (about US$45) for the physical copy and 4,611 yen (about US$42) for download.
