  1. There are already a few discords about VNs, including the official fuwa one. Wouldn't it be better to not dilute things further?
  2. Only when the choices are convoluted and make no sense as the way to lead to a heroine's route... which is unfortunately far too often in my experience.
  3. 1-2 hours, less if I cum across an H scene.
  4. Usually when you see something that distinct, and even more so a relatively uncommonly used word, it's in the original Japanese, and the translator has kept it there.
  5. Eh it was a yawnfest for the first few episodes and I gave up. Perhaps I should go back and give it a chance? /me checks watchlist and sees 18 current shows. Perhaps not.
  6. No they wouldn't. There are many reasons they leave mosaics in, usually driven by the Japanese devs, and they have no choice. Either way, it's a practice I don't want to endorse with my money.
  7. Good question. The principle is for supporting localised releases that are uncensored only. Japan doesn't get a choice.
  8. Generally "I don't care for mosaics" would imply you hate them by the way. And I don't care for mosaics, so I'm passing on this game because of them. Sigh.
  9. Rewatching "One Week Friends" with my wife. Another absolutely charming show that I adored the first time and am still enjoying this time around.
  10. No one's given you the most important advice of all - be prepared to be disappointed. By the nature of the difficulty and size of the projects, very few random people in their first translation project stick around to the end.
  11. I'm not sure why we live in a world where translators think that just because they've received years of education, training, and practice and lived in parallel cultures for years, that they're qualified to... uh... translate.
  12. Like all official localisations, the translation will be more liberal. However it does include honorifics.
  13. This, by far, but unfortunately untranslated: https://vndb.org/v456
  14. Being the oldest bastard here my answers will easily be traced back to me but I'll do it anyway. I guess I wasn't really employed professionally at the time I did any fanTL projects as that came afterwards.
  15. Looks a lot like (female) Ranma. Anime & manga, no VN. https://myanimelist.net/anime/210/Ranma_½
  16. That was pretty cool of Astra to have a super long epilogue. I was worried everything would go bad but no, it was just an excuse to give us their after story. I wish more shows did that.
  17. Was looking for something good to rewatch with my wife and spotted Kotoura-san and we watched that through. What a great fun show that was. Had a nice balance of (resolving) drama, comedy, light ecchi, and romance. Loved it. It had been so long since I watched it that I'd virtually forgotten what happened. I need to find more gems from the past that I haven't seen in ages instead of watching the vast quantities of new crap that keeps coming out.
  18. I agree. I started out thinking this would be a great season but so much has faded over time. Maou sama is boring now despite being initially hilarious, Two hit mama is lame arse mom love shit, Hensuki barely gets a smirk out of me, Katsutte kami desperately needed a much longer running and rushed AF, arifureta was appalling from the get go, but managed to get worse (long since dropped now), cop craft has serious production issues but is still kinda okay, uchinoko is soothing iyashikei but not much else, dumbbell forgot to actually be funny or ecchi, failing on both counts, fire force is as you said, joshikousei, sounan, and Tejina barely get a grin, and there was sooo much I dropped. However, it's not all bad. Savage girls is really pleasing, astra and dr stone are both intriguing, accelerator is okayish, danmachi is good fun. Kimetsu no Yaiba really stood out as you said, and based on its pacing desperately needs about 3 more seasons if it's to fully explore all the characters, Tanjrou's evolution, and the downfall of the 12. My biggest disappointment is Mix though. I really expected magic from it like the original Touch anime it's a sequel to, or even better Cross Game (also by the same writer) but instead it's been pretty plain sports anime. Weirdest part of all I can't get my head around is the sound mixing (pun intended) in it. The sound effects are ten times louder than the voices, making it really distracting.
  19. If anybody else has been following the Fruits Basket reboot, that episode was the clincher. I've been waiting for that scene since seeing the original many years ago, but it still floored me. Damn I wept so hard.
  20. Lucky you enjoy it. Whilst the romantic overtones were nice they were too few and I struggled with Takagi and just wanted to throttle the fucking bitch and gave up a few episodes into season 2.
  21. Haha, I kept the list to just my highest rating shows here for brevity. There's so much more I'd happily watch more seasons of, but that list above are the things I desperately would like to sequels of -- that haven't had sequels announced.
