Trivy and Sammy's Kaitō Tenshi Twin Angel magical girl slot machine game franchise will get a new web anime, web radio program, and comic in 2010. There will also be a Kaitō Tenshi Twin Angel 2 Card Collection, a White Angel figure, a Kurumi character dakimakura (hugging pillow) cover, and other goods planned for sale this year. The new items were announced via a movie and a flyer that were first released at the Comic Market 77 convention in Tokyo at the end of 2009. (In the linked page, select the first movie icon on top.)

Kaitō Tenshi Twin Angel began as a pachisuro (pachinko-parlor slot machine) game with Yukari Tamura and Mamiko Noto as Haruka "Red Angel" Minazuki and Aoi "Blue Angel" Kannazuki. It already spawned a manga in Kadokawa Shoten's Monthly Shonen Ace magazine in 2007 and a two-volume video anime series in 2008. The creators had hinted at a new project after the release of the first video anime volume in 2008.

The Kaitō Tenshi Twin Angel 2 franchise followup adds a new character named Kurumi "White Angel" Hazuki, played by Rie Kugimiya.
