This time for AX 2016, Mangagamer tease 3 new partner which to said interesting. Any speculation for new partners here? As for mine, I'd already write about that since Anime Boston, although I'll add it here later.

Welcome to Fuwanovel, and I hope you had fun here. By the way, what is your favorite Visual Novel? As for your study, I couldn't follow it but maybe you could try to apply programming for Fan Translation here. Enjoy yourself here.

So apparently it was for promotion, eh? Interesting strategy I suppose. And speaking about IGG, it was already at almost 20% ie 5,620 as for now with 26 backer. I think this situation would be good for now, although it might change though. About the VN itself, I think there's still not much info for the story itself. What I mean is that the synopsis only said volume 1, so I did obviously speculate there will be volume 2 (And according to the game site it'll be 3 volume). My concern is will Frontwing release all 3 volume or release it one by one in the future, and we could only know about it later.

Sakura eh? Well, I'd remember that Sakura was some sort of magical girl who accidentally unseal all card with super power and she must collect all card again. Oh, we also had her best friend who also like to record Sakura in action (And doubled as second cousin. Just Google the term), a boy rival who will turned to her lover, a fiancee from saidboy rival, and a mascot who Sakura called Kero. As for the anime itself, well mostly it was slice of life and quite calm (And please don't expect Symphogear or any modern magical anime situation there). Oh, and if some of you want to watch it, it was had 70 episode. And by the way the anime was had some different story element from manga, so I would suggest if some of you want to enjoy Sakura, read manga and watch the anime too. By the way, this series was quite well known in Indonesia, because back around 2000 Indonesian TV was broadcasted this (Of course dubbed). And I'd also knew that USA version somehow got screwed in the broadcast itself ie started from episode 8. About new anime, it might be good but we still didn't knew when it'll be broadcast in Japan though.

Just checked the page and I saw the goal was quite low for a VN with 5 characters ie route (Maybe). Although looking at the seiyuu, maybe it's possible (Most of them started around 2010, except for Naruse Mia and Fujimori Yukina). I mean according to VNDB the seiyuu was had less than famous work, which compared back in KARAKARA they also had big eroge seiyuu name like Natsunoo Koori aka Taguchi Hiroko (Especially when factoring she was one of the seiyuu back at very popular Muv Luv franchise). If we looking from the goal it's probably short VN just like KARAKARA. But if we looking from seiyuu work list, it's also possible that we might get medium length VN this time (According to one source, usually eroge seiyuu was paid based on the lines that they said. And usually more experienced eroge seiyuu ie work in many eroge was quite expensive. That's why I said with 30,000 goal and 3 experienced eroge seiyuu, KARAKARA will be probably short VN). But to see if we'll get short or medium length VN, might as well look for translation progress later ie if the jump was big it'll be probably short VN. tldr - The goal maybe quite low (30,000) so we might get short VN. But looking from seiyuu work list based on VNDB list, it's possible that we'll get medium length VN. Oh and in regard of scenario writer, could any of Fuwanovel member here comment about his work because I could only see his work were average untranslated moege (Maybe). I'll keep my eye on this IGG for time being, and it's quite interesting that they'll release this August. Let's see it later.

Nice avatar I guess. Anyway, I think some member already recommended good one, but may I joined here. Okay, actually if you based on release date after 2010 and translated, I think we'd had quite a number there. But since you ask for the good graphic recommendation, how about Aoishiro, ef, and eden. I knew those 3 wasn't released at 2010, but the graphic was so good and you might as well look at the picture in VNDB page. For after 2010 release, if you want some gameplay, how about Kamidori. For action VN, maybe Cho Dengeki Stryker was good too, and if you think Dengeki Stryker premise was childish, Tokyo Babel might be good for you. And for last recommendation, judging from your avatar maybe Shiny Days also good for you (Also if you had 16 GB HDD Space). If you ask me if some of them had romance element or not, I'll said yes although the element might be too few compared to previous recommendation. Also I think from my recommendation only Tokyo Babel and Aoishiro that didn't had H-Scenes (But it's still quite good). Oh, and of course all of my recommendation were translated. Hope my recommendation here help. PS - Oh, Konosora was good too, although the H-Scenes was ripped though. There's some way to restore H-Scenes though, although some member here already worked on Restoration patch for long time though. H-Scenes issue aside, Konosora itself had romance moment though.

Welcome to Fuwanovel and hope you had fun here. And speaking about your experience, it was quite interesting I supposed although I couldn't elaborate it too much though (Sorry). Speaking about console VN, did you play something like Ar Tonelico or untranslated one like Memories Off ? And while console was had nice game collection, I still think that PC was more capable to survive the changing time, especially with many console game that had Steam version (Although some of them need very big HDD space and good graphic card though). For last word, not much other than good luck in your Fuwanovel activity in the future.

Another member here had birthday, so I'll said happy 31st birthday @Fred the Barber even though in your location still too early and hope you had upcoming years well. Also hope I see you more, even though I'd already saw you here a lot though. I'd remember that you came to Anime Boston by the way, and I'm thankful for that (Also thanks for funding Root Double, since I saw your name on True ED Credit there). So, once again happy birthday, Fred. PS - Just remember, also thanks for editing 2 routes from ToHeart 2 at the translation project itself.

If you ask are you missing the file, my honest answer would be yes. You really missing the file from HD folder here. Specifically the Windows Sound Scheme file that should be placed on some Japanese name folder at HD folder. And since JAST didn't add it in the folder, obviously the sound scheme file itself was not in HD folder. Well, I got the answer indirectly from some old blog post which said that he had Narukana sound scheme file, and he said something like if you want Narukana scream at you every time you using computer or something like that. And for the sound scheme file itself, I didn't knew either where we could got that. Oh, and in case what's your button mean, it was probably Nozomi's voice said Windows Started or something like that every time you start your PC (In Japan of course, and only if the file exist). tldr - Since the sounds file was unavailable from the very start, just ignore WSS section in Extra part.

Well, if you ask me what's the fix, my answer will be none. Yes, there's nothing that could fix WSS Error, because actually you need to download the file itself from somewhere and place it on HD Folder, and looks like JAST didn't include the sound file. Actually, WSS means Windows Sound Scheme (You may already knew this though) and here's the tutorial to customize it in your computer. As for the sound file itself, I don't know either where to get it. So, I think it's better if you treated WSS section as useless extra part here. Oh, and by the way welcome to Fuwanovel and hope you had fun here.

@wyldstrykr Although I said there's no unique skill from SS Rank, I think SS Rank was still nice challenge from Seinarukana imo. About Energy Leak ineffective, the only possibilities is that somehow you got battle mana less than 2 (Oh, speaking about battle mana actually Energy Leak need 2 battle mana to activated. But since usually you'll gain 2 battle mana for each turn start, it should be no problem) when in support. Another possibilities is that Energy Leak was happened to banish setup skill (For example Breeze Relief) when Flame Shower enemy was in support position (Impossible as of Chapter 2). Other than those 2, I didn't knew why Energy Leak was ineffective against Flame Shower other than maybe your game got bug.

@SilverLi If you talk about Flame Shower, you should be able to banish it with Energy Leak, since Flame Shower was level 4 skill and Energy Leak was able to banish any support skill up to level 4 (Oh, and Ice Banish only able to banish the support skill up to level 3). But since you mention that you already tried to try Energy Leak and it's failed, maybe it's a bug. Or are you already beat Seinarukana and try hard mode for example. If not, well maybe it's really bug (Although I'd never had any problem with Energy Leak though).

By the way, I'm quite shocking indeed. So much that I'm laugh ie not at all surprised since back there Frontwing also announce that they crowdfund Sharin localization. Anyway, at least Frontwing was learned from their publisher at Western (Sekai Project) to not using Kickstarter and using Indie Go Go in case the project will be failed (From failed BL zombie Indie Go Go (IGG), I'd knew that IGG allow extension for the funding period, unlike Kickstarter). Well, other than Frontwing take a lesson from Sekai, not much else that I could comment until 3 days later (When Corona Blossom IGG launched obviously).

Okay, last route on Imouto Paradise (And I'll not play harem route) which this time we'll see the romance between Aya and her Nii-san (It was her call to MC here). For the seiyuu, Aya was voiced by Yukimura Toa who also voiced Palamedes back in Eiyuu Senki and Karen in curently translated Libra the Vampire Princess. For her scenes, well it's quite normal compared to XXXjob back at Rio's route, femdom back at Michika route, humiliation back at Hiyori's route and sex in public back at Koharu's route. By normal I mean only blowjob, anal, and usual sex (Although Aya choose anal as her first sex though). Oh, and by the way all sisters had started their sex career by masturbating lol. For Aya herself, she was quite skillful at household, especially cooking but bad at handling technology (There's a scene when Aya managed to broke the TV until her nii-san fix by changing the setting). She also love all of her fellow imouto and MC of course. For the conflict, I think this is the only route when they acknowledge the incest was taboo in society and MC himself realize that, so he decided that he'll try to distance himself from Aya if possible. But of course, since they already became lover it was harder than said if they distanced each other (And when Aya jealous, she decided to tease MC in the bathroom). And since MC already became lover with Aya, there's no problem in regard of MC cluelessness about her love iirc (Or it was toned down compared to previous routes). Although they tried their best to keep it secret, in the end all of other 4 imouto knew that though. They decided to agree with MC and Aya relationship just like in every route (Well, actually every imouto accept their older brother relationship with one of them except back at Michika route), and after that MC and Aya had sex for whole days. Okay, for nukige, I think it was nice and once again the animation was good (Also it had interesting ejaculation countdown feature). In regard of scenario, since according to VNDB this game had 3 writers, I suspect that one of them was main writer who write Aya and Rio route (Aya because it managed to add incest taboo, while Rio was had good chemistry between herself and MC), another one was femdom fan who write Michika route (And he made MC looks like very horny there, so much I renamed MC 'Hornyman' to express my insult there), and another one who write Koharu and Hiyori routes (Because the conflict was like 'my twin was better to you instead of me' thing). Well, VNDB didn't list what route they write anyway for each writer, so I'm free to speculate here I suppose (Of course I didn't knew which one is main writer there though). Other than that, couldn't comment much. That's all for my experience in regard of Imouto Paradise. Sorry if it's very late here. Next I'll try to play Yumina (Actually replay though, since I played Yumina too back in 2013). I'll try to give the comment about Yumina in VN Reading Club May thread later.

Well, I'm bored and found this interesting article here. By the way, the writer here was also one of our member Jikorde (Although actually it will be better if he posted it by himself here though. And sorry for posting it here if you come here), and if you need some save data from VN with gameplay, you could also visit his site and browse it. He also did the review the VN that had save data uploaded, and I think he did well in regard of review (If Jikorde see this, you could add your blog to the hub in here). Regarding the article itself, I'm sure anyone already knew this secret regarding of Mangagamer nukige release. But my comment would be I think it's okay if they release nukige in order to support the company. After all, I think if in the future we'll seeing more of good VN translated, why not? And even if we didn't read the nukige, most of other people outside will buy and read them of course. Or if you said Steam/Sekai equivalent it would be Sakura series (Sakura Wars series or Snow Sakura not included here). Now that I think about it, back in the past mostly JAST release was came from nukige (ie Sagara Family). My conclusion here would be I'm okay if Mangagamer using nukige as gold mine for the company (Although if I'll play nukige or not is another story though), but any member here might not agree though. Oh, and he also comment about his expectation about July announcement and he hope it will be good (I'm looking forward to it too by the way). So, any opinion, especially about Mangagamer nukige release (Even though it's maybe already well known, I'm still interested to hear everyone opinion) here?

Well, congratulations for 2 years post here. And if you compared it from mine technically it's 17 months that I'm joining here (But I'm just more active recently ie since January, so maybe in regard of activity I'm just 5 months to be here I guess). For the post, sometimes I confused what I want to post in here though and maybe it's also common problem for all of Fuwanovel member here. Once again congratulations, and to be honest I didn't had any question here though. Hope we see each other more here.

@wyldstrykr I think none, because according to JP Guide that I read using Google Translate for lousy translation, there's no unique skill that available if you got S/SS Rank ie you could just kill some enemy to got the skill from SS Rank Mission (Although you might as well did SS Rank though, since skill from chapter 12 that you got from SS Rank was quite rare ie the enemy which hold them was limited compared to previous chapter). Oh, and actually what SS Rank affected in term of skill was that you'll obtained the skill earlier instead of later. tldr - There's no unique skill from S/SS Rank. It will only allow us to got the skill earlier if you managed S/SS Rank a mission.

I think I didn't really had much problem with height, so false. Next person would be very protective to their own little sister, so much that you didn't allow her to meet another man or disapprove her boyfriend so much.

I think for my organizing VN, just put it in local disc D and E instead of desktop. Well, I'd also put the VN in unique name folder for each 6 - 7 VN (Or only 4 VN for some folder). Other than that, not much different from some member here in regard of storing VN.

Oh, and in case OP here asking if Root Double is sequel/prequel, it was stand alone game ie no sequel or prequel. And by the way, if you interested to play Seinarukana keep in mind that the VN had gameplay element.

To OP here, might I suggest to put a poll here? Although the winner was Mangagamer, but I also saw that some people here also choose Sekai and JAST. Thanks in advance.

Well, the winner is Mangagamer duh. Especially if we based on how much good VN that we get from them (Yurirei, Haruka, Kara no Shoujo 2, Tokyo Babel) compared to their competitor (JAST only had Seinarukana for this year release, and Sekai had Root Double if we talk about commercial release). Although in the past Mangagamer had controversy too like Sekai in regard of localization cost. About the controversy, Mangagamer was ripped voice from Koihime Musou and Kara no Shoujo in order to cut license cost (Probably), while Sekai using fund rising like Kickstarter and their best license as for now was basically already fan translated VN (Although they did improve Clannad translation though). JAST, according to VNDB it's not that bad though if we talk about the release, but they tendency to delay the VN release like Seinarukana from 2012 was of course give the company bad reputation. Although if I might said they didn't had bad reputation in the past though ie they release mostly nukige and the internet at that time was not as widespread as of now. And for last word, as of now Mangagamer was winning if we talk about the future release (DaCapo 3, Bokuten, Pygmalion) compared to JAST and Sekai. So yeah, once again I'd choose Mangagamer.

A little late, but welcome to Fuwanovel and hope you enjoy yourself here. For VN recommendation, how about recently released one like Root Double, Tokyo Babel, and Seinarukana here. And if you want more VN you should also try Noble Works and Dracu Riot if you want lighter story (And Princess Evangile as well). Hope to see you more here.

So you choose Satsuki first I suppose. No problem though since Satsuki had the most story, while the other routes (Except Nozomi and Narukana) could be considered as side story (Especially Ruputna). Well, if you still want to chase other route, here's my tips. Had any heroine paired with Nozomu and had them kill some enemy and also heart enemy if possible. Then at chapter 5 just choose the choice that didn't had any scene with Satsuki. And you actually could play all route in one playthrough though, if you knew of how balancing the point well from the choice and had Nozomu fight alone ie all rounder (And he's strong enough). Well, good luck on your play through at Satsuki route though.

From the spoiler that I could gather and reaction for each route, maybe Ruputna first, then Naya, Katima, Nozomi, Satsuki, and finally Narukana. Although one thing that you should knew that Narukana's route only available after beat the game once ie 2nd playthrough.
