  1. i´d say this should do (from fairly easy to rather nightmare-ish, depending on ones knowledge of jp-vocabulary/grammar/historical whatsnot/being used to infodumps, btw philosophy). the first 3 are more or less of the same overall difficulty, grisaia a little worse because of its military jargon & testament - mahoyo are another step above those. better not think about going for the last ones without having at least a little confidence in your skills, which doesnt necessarily mean difficulty-wise, as you can read and understand subahibi without truly comprehending what it´s all about - but who would even do that? • aiyoku no eustia • dracuriot • root Double • grisaia no meikyu/grisaia no rakuen • shinigami no testament • mahoutsukai no yoru • subarashiki hibi • dies irae • soukou akki muramasa
  2. kawarazaki-ke 2 - absolution/salvation muramasa - deconstruction of heroism shingakkou - deconstruction of human mind/psyche kusarihime - deconstruction of humanity reminiscence - deconstruction of ones world within umineko - deconstruction of the genre itself phantom of inferno - deconstruction of blind following isaku/shuusaku/ kisaku - deconstruction of the genre itself itsusora - deconstruction of ones expectations be-yond - deconstruction of the (maou) genre itself cross channel - shatterer of now & then kagerou (by masaki kamo) - apostle of intense melancholia
  3. to me it´s been definitively worth reading the jp version, despite all the clumsy prose and partly childlike wording. think it´s almost the same as in hapymaher´s case, where an english localisation of its may improve the overall experience, if skillfully done. overall saying myth´s plot has a somewhat unique and creative touch to it, without falling prey to common tropes and such + also consists of quite the likeable cast/intriguing setting. cant see mangagamer setting up an unreasonable high pricing there, so i´d say go for it upon release, and be it only for them to hopefully start working on other more recent titles of theirs, such as w-standart wonderland, which has been a pretty enjoyable read as well (the authors did improve in terms of writing)
  4. he means loe who takes/took commissions for stuff other than his main-projects, such as extra-routes, bonus content, or simply other titles. though works he´s not interested in himself would still get refused from what i can tell. btw i dont think he does the whole commission thingy as a means of getting rich, more to additionally cover some rather hefty bills, so dont expect him pulling some 80h+ titles out of nowhere if offered a little money.
  5. the list above not acknowledging DxD´s existence does hurt quite alot, you know...
  6. rather unlikely, since the staff of theirs views it as nothing but an arkward nukige, btw partly trashtalked the title itself. edit: guess people who are reading natsu no kusari only for the porn are equivalent to those going for kawarazaki-ke2´s netorare. rip world, where have we gone wrong.... edit2: them picking up natsu no kusari would require having some balls since it´s a more realistic take on the matter, which i cant see happening as things stand for now - call me a pessimistic piece of crap, i know i know... but in a way it´s abit comparable to yabai!, a title i can´t see them doing either. potential social outcries are more easy to handle/avoid when sticking to fantasy, or settings that are strongly giving off a fictional vibe than their opposites, regrettably so. doesnt help that some readers seemingly can´t comprehend such matter, or refuse doing so by default.
  7. re: ...and I know that some readers don't want realism in VNs to begin with, so this is something they will never understand or even want in the first place ... - characters behaving in a realistic, non illogical and consequent manner does not neccessarily contradict a plotline that still gives off a fictional vibe, as both are pretty much able to co-exist, btw. enhance eachother, whereas most titles lacking the former often end up nothing but works of great retardism, making you cringe until there is no more. basically saying well written works of selfinsertion are long since dead, be it either because of authors seemingly giving some fucks, or to non scare off the more sensitive part of their readership who tend to favor maximized escapism over its pendant, prone to getting depressive and such. honestly speaking, to me every kind of art (unless it contains personal information) is and should always stand above ethics and morals, means, why should an author even care about some readers possibly hanging themselves, forwhy it´s simply neither his nor his works fault (obvious exaggeration(?) here). nothing worse than crippling your own works out of false consideration/playing amateur-therapist, seriously.
  8. guess you should give tinkerbell´s inýouchou series at try, notably kyou & shoku. & nah it´s not nearly as brutal as some people are making it out to be. nothing wrong with female swines getting treated a little more harsch
  9. there is no reason why, and i dont get its purpose either. never used it, probably never will.
  10. this better means not moenovel is going to awake from its cryo-sleep :/
  11. though jast, mangagamer and the other abomination have done some works from will-plus in the past, it´s rather unlikely that someone is going to pick excatly this one out of the zillions which they have in their lineup. though they say ones hope isn´t shattered until it´s shattered, so--------
  12. ayo it´s not like i´m against yuri by default, as there have been works i´ve enjoyed, but them all artificially hyping up the genre, making it seem like each and every work is a masterpiece thats stand way above others, is what sullies my mood. feels like somehow getting re-educated/brainwashed by the industry itself into non liking different types of stuff anymore. edit. granted, those are still semi-paranoidal future shenanigans, but i cant help but being reminded at the time when moe first started emerging the oceans of evilness.
  13. done with everything except for re-word3 & omega no shikai´s final entry, which i´m going to continue sometime later. did no encounter new works of great value, so no going into detail there. time to start diving straight into Re-lief´s trial & then the long awaited DxD. Glory to NEETism, the faithful hikikomori that is i once again submitts to your pleasures
  14. ougon musou kyoku. hell fucking yes. now the world can wither away and die, as for i dont care anymore edit: bit surprised that stargazers gets published under mg, instead of sekai. sure they did already release menagerie under the former, but i honestly believed stargazers would be sekais turn again, like toko was. if that means less dharker crapshit, than i´ve nothing against such thing...
  15. what could that possibly be? like having the sprites redrawn to make them chicks appear older, so they could put it on nutaku? everyone wins. no public outcry, everyone gets his 5min of fucks, yeii - except for lolicons, but those arent considered humans anyway, at least not in the eyes of most *sarcasm off if you happen to speak/understand jp, that is. cant see them bringing it over in english for naught. not something of said length, regardless of quality/efforts put into making it happen. dunno if it´s still free, or started to cost meanwhile, but to go for licensing free-doujinshi is pretty much destined to end up stiring up hate towards oneselfe, like there will always be some to complain about the work wasn´t originally intended being made commercial & blah. btw. am i the only one who starts getting annoyed by the recent flood of yuri-based works (no specific publishers)? almost as if the genre is (forcibly)being made into the new moe, and it´s giving me the creeps.
  16. yes i do indeed mean romeo, a former man of great, now corrupted by the likes of takahiro and having his name/fame abused as a means of drawing naive fellows in. truly an evil scheme. would´ve probably ended up laughing if it werent for its ridiculous shortness, yet somehow inappropriate pricing. honestly stick with the anime.
  17. because it´s a cashgrab mediocre one. it disgusts me that a well-known and -regarded author gave himself away to evil. had quite some high expectations for that one in particular, but-------------
  18. so it´s out now, bit earlier than originally planned but it´s out. & yo, the refine version is basically the ´04 re-release one, incl. japanese voices, a little less pixilizated and some updated/changed art compared to its dos-release. anyway the title is currently 20% discounted, so you might want to give it try; and be it only to get them to start working on its successors for fucking gods sake.
  19. definitely annerose there. would undoubtably make a shitton of people happy who´re deep into lilith´s franchise, but lack the skills of reading it in japanese. btw kudos for even considering said title.
  20. b-but i´m just a panda who happens to be disgusted by unjustifiable happiness, nothing to brag about. & hoi, welcome to the forums!
  21. good then, as their butts aren´t the only thing that gets poked in there, not neccessarily meant on a sexual level overall i do think shingekkou does better in the despair-parts than GSS did, or emotional dismemberment in general. repeatedly that is. also less predictable than it might seem on first glance, or as the story proceeds. & regarding topic here, to me reading nanarin fell completely flat. like there´s way too much and ero in there, seriously too much. though it´s part of the plot it killed off my mood, up to a point of me not caring anymore for what´s been going on, btw. when stuff started getting real i was pretty much all apathetic. literally wore me out whilst reading as hell. btw to the one who did recommend me going for pigeon blood, because it´s sooo cool & dark - piss off. you killed me. i almost abandoned reading commercial works thanks to your ill-willed bullcrap. would have given it a -2rating if possible. seriously the most worst thing i ever encountered, not even to mention the 150euros i did waste on it and having stayed hungry for a week as the result...
  22. seems you really like GSS so far. strongly suggest (again *sigh) you also go for shingakkou after that one, despite it consisting of dudes getting poked in their butts (just try imagining some are chicks, they do already look a little femine). wasnt that impressed by GSS myself (still a good one), but its author did improve over the years and shingakkou turned out a disgusting masterpiece - shame we wont ever see it released in the west, since jast is 1) basically partnered with them 2)apparently has no ambition try doing BL 3)apparently has no one to do so
  23. partly prepare for the worst but on the other hand, re-lief & dxd should be out after you´ve seen through senmomo to make up for it.
  24. pretty much this & as mentioned by turnip, the translation is top-knotch there. fits perfectly its setting and enhances the overall experience. definitely a great job done by whomever has worked on said title. anyway pretty cool seeing some having put this much efforts into a "mere" doujin. edit: to those who can´t help but complaining about its font - quit being retarded & accept the fact it´s perfectly fine as it is and does befit the overall product.
  25. geez that never ending circle of pointless blahblah coming to oelvns put me into one foul mood. back to dead end junction now & hopefully it´s going to return the happiness that went awry

      there´re truly isn´t, but------------ i cant help but start going mad everytime the same bullshit comes up. think you did also ask the ones von alienworks not that long ago, why they try doing a japanese op for their upcoming work, like it doesn´t make any sense to me. always those justifications, those hollow excuses, them always bringing up the same blahblah - it´s frustrating. & if you happen to poke long enough into the truth, they´ll just call you toxic and a oelvn hater. *sigh, just kill me
