Foreword - Seeing that Decay experienced some difficulty in regard of making VNTS because of the technical error and that admin Tay is still missing, it's inevitable that we couldn't have VNTS until the problem is fixed combined with Decay's new busyness later. So as usual here's this week VNTS Review from mine and I hope that you'll enjoy this.

As for the title, since we already have Healing Harem release along with soon to be released Sakusakura at this day, I decided to combined two title seeing that it's very fitting because we have Sakura Spirit release in the past. By the way 'Curse Spirit' part here is the direct translation of tatarigami, in which as this site mentioned is the curse spirit that need to be appeased whenever there's some curse in Japan because Japanese people did believed that the curse was caused by tatarigami's anger. That title aside, as for this week other than both of Healing Harem and Sakusakura later there's no releases for this week, but of course we still got usual updates so let's see what I can write for this week as well.

As for Healing Harem, well it's more or less just Pulltop's answer to Sakura series so it's not a big release to me. And more importantly it's quite obvious that Pulltop will release it in Japan with H scenes later, so we can treat Healing Harem as censored VN. If anything, at least Haling Harem here is not Pulltop's big VN like both of Konosora and Miagete in which those two releases did cause some controversy because of the censorship, and more importantly the three goddess heroines in there did have big breast lol. Speaking about big breast, Cherry Kiss did announce Isekai Harem Dungeon Master in which while it's interesting that we have another isekai VN announced (Isekai VN here is surprisingly rare), the mere mention of Cherry Kiss should what we need to guess that the VN itself is a nukige and did have big breast heroines. Not my type of VN, but if you want more nukige perhaps you'll be looking forward to the release.

As for Sekai, I guess it's good that they have Nine, Majokoi, and Nanairo was on track. Although it's too bad though that Nanairo need to do the QA once more because apparently they want to do it more precise, in order to avoid the past mistakes like Hoshimemo and Tokeijikake. Oh and speaking about QA, there's Majokoi as well in which apparently it wouldn't be possible to have Sekai release it at Q4 2018 because it said that they need multiple QA to get that done, and they about to do the first round. The reason for the multiple QA is that Majokoi's engine itself is quite complex, and if we recall from back at Tokeijikake there's some hiccup like we need to play it using Japanese locale instead of English locale, and for the remeinder both of Tokeijikake and Majokoi did share same engine. Other than three projects, Sekai also did have fully translated and edited secret project and right now they waiting for the third party to do the engine work (No idea what's the secret project is). From Mangagamer we have Suki Suki finally released at December 13th later, so it's definitely the good news seeing that they finally managed to release it after two years delay because of Chuable's bankruptcy.

From fan translation section, we have Eustia was at 58.80% translated along with 44.04% edited, Harugi's overall was at 30% translated along with Miyabi's route was at 42% translated and Branch was at 43% translated along with 34% edited, Watamasu was at a quarter translated, Loverable was at 92.38% TLC-ed along with 48.44% edited and 27.4% QC-ed, Akagoi's prologue was finished the editing process, and Yoigoshi was at 64% translated. As for Hoshiori's update, this time we have Misa's route reached 70% mark (70.59%) translated and overall Hoshiori was at 32.23% translated. While it's possible that Misa's route will be fully translated by the next week, according to Trip there's still some editing work left so obviously we'll not have it released at next week, so perhaps it would be reasonable if we think that Misa's patch will be released at December later.

This week other than Sakusakura release we have a lot of updates from Sol Press announcements, so I would say good job to them there. As for Irotoridori, while for now it's still uncertain there's a possibility that they'll launch the KS at December later along with possibility of adding the FDs as the stretch goal, so let's wait and see in regard of Irotoridori. For their roundup progress, the work of Mirai Radio, Nukitashi, and Himawari no Kioku will start at 2019 later, so don't expect any updates from those three for now. As for the rest of the announcements, we have Shitsuaru was at 20% translated and 11% edited, Kimi to Aogi was at 60% translated and 30% edited, Hitotsuba was at 60% translated and halfway edited, and Onikiss was at 38% translated along with 5% edited. For additional notes here, Sol Press did targeted to have all of those announcements released at 2019 later, in which while it's not impossible it would be tall order to do so I hope that Sol Press manage to find a way if they want to fulfill the target. Oh and it's good that Sol Press finally managed to release Sakusakura after two years delay later.

That's all for this week, and see you next week.
