We don't know much about Lollipop Chainsaw, the next game from Suda51's studio Grasshopper Manufacture, developer of Shadows of the Damned. What we do know is the main character, Juliet Sterling, chops the undead into pink little bits using her chainsaw and she has some dude's head hanging from her waist.

According to Andriasang's translation of a Famitsu article, Juliet is a cheerleader who must ward off zombie invaders from her high school on her 18th birthday. We're not sure what type of game Lollipop Chainsaw is, but it looks to be an action game in the vein of Dead Rising. There's no confirmation of a Western release for the quirky title, but that shouldn't stop you from checking out more shots of the game below.

To check out the rest of the Lollipop Chainsaw screens, head over to Famitsu.

Da f***?!

I love Suda. Cheerleader with an animated decapitated head, and a chainsaw that makes neon pink hearts shoot from their ravaged zombie bodies. I will be playing this

I was wondering what the hell this is when I realized it's a Grasshopper Manufacture game. Makes perfect sense now.
by Slowe Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:07 PM

Hmm....interesting.....I have a feeling that if this does come out in the west, my wife is going to demand this....and I'm okay with that hehe
by Eyros Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:11 PM

Well, they've got the protagonist right... however as someone who isn't really a fan of Dead Rising, I hope it turns out to be quite a bit different from that.
by thejonnymar Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:12 PM

Looks pretty cool...I would definitely give it a go, so to speak...
by maeso22 Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:12 PM

Definitly looks... interesting. Have they announced what system(s) it's going to be for?
by Blake Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:19 PM

I know I will buy it, but after the Shadows of the Damned flopped (great game imo) I wonder if it's going to be as quirky as Suda51 is known for.

sorry but this just loooks... bad
by Boyzby Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:20 PM

If it's coming from Grasshopper it's gotta be... weird.
by Razorst1tch Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:24 PM

itd be cool if her name was ashley williams
by Maxxron Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:24 PM

Cheerleaders? Zombies? Chainsaws?

Oh my...

Count me in.
by Robert Rimini Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:30 PM

Well, it definitely looks interesting. But hey, I have faith in Grasshopper Manufacture to make a great game. No More Heroes 2 and Shadows of the Damned were both crazy, yet polished and great, so I have very little doubts that this will reach around that mark of quality.
by Casey Goers Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:31 PM

***, another zombie game? really?
by TraderInTown Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:33 PM

Hey man, all sorts of screwed up stuff happens on your 18th birthday. Mine involved jumping over a shark tank on a motorcycle dual-wielding Uzis and shooting down jetpack mooks while trying to put out a fire on my pant leg and getting to the bank before the check bounced. Seriously. Watch out.
by ForgottenEmotion Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 12:34 PM

I could quite possibly pick this up if it has a north america release. Suda 51 has become one of my favorite studio's of recent. Shadows of the Damned was pretty awesome. Hopefully this could be as inventive and fun as that game.
