  1. At least someone sees this as well, the huge lack of romance was such a turn off, I have high expectations for the fall season now.
  2. Kuroneko honestly doesn't please me at all, I didn't even like her that much in the anime but i guess she still has a vast fanbase but i don't think she has enough traits to beat most of the other characters. I also am with you on that, Railgun S was a big success in my opinion and overall Misaka is just a great character. I don't know about Kanade but Eucliwood is definitely one of my favorites. I'm supporting Misaka all the way through though and i'd pick her over anyone in this contest even if i had to abstain from everyone else for her to win. I discovered the Toaru series this year and have been obsessed with it since.
  3. Welcome to the forums, I hope you enjoy your stay. I noticed you said you loved Little Busters and Kud's route in particular, i think we'll be great friends! Little Busters is my favorite visual novel ever, though i own the Ecstasy version but the full patch for it hasn't been released yet. And Kud is my favorite character ever and my anime crush~ What was your favorite part of LB ? Also if you didn't understand Kurugaya's route you should replay it after completing refrain which will unlock her true ending, some people don't do that but it's actually worth it for a full happy ending although i will admit it was my least favorite of all as well. One visual novel you should definitely read is Hoshizora no Memoria which for me had a similar feel to Little Busters and is my second favorite of all so far. I'm sure if Steve sees this thread he'll second it. And i recommend Konosora as well albeit the errors the first patch still has.

  5. I have been looking into Symphonic Rain and it seems pretty interesting although it has such a low resolution i guess i could give it a try in the near future. Thanks.
  6. Actually i have been meaning to download Da Capo but i couldn't find it on Fuwanovel and on sites like nyaa and sukebei.nyaa they only have 1 or 2 seeds which would make the download take a long time that i'm not willing to wait for. Is there any other source that you might know of?
  7. I have 3 VNs to finish so for now I'm pretty busy but I'd like to know any suggestions any of you might have that will be a great Visual Novel experience. I'm a sucker for adorable romance stories so i was looking for that type of VN, and i prefer highschool settings as well or at least a slice of life theme. My favorite type of heroines are Osananajimi heroines and Loli heroines. Just so you know it can be All Ages i don't care much for H-scenes. Anything you think is worth a try is really appreciated, only english translated ones though, my japanese skills are poor/non existent. My apologies for that fact. Thank you for any recommendations you might have, i'll greatily appreciate it. So far the novels i played/am playing:
  8. This is quite the interesting debate. The way i see it, H scenes in VNs tend to decrease the quality of the story of most VNs, especially if they're simply composed of moaning and squirming seeyus for 10 whole minutes. I personaly do not appreciate said scenes since they add no value to the plot and are simply there as a market strategy so the player/viewer can impersonate themselves in the stead of the protagonist. Honestly I only see it as a mere market strategy and nothing else. However this is not an absolute rule as H-scenes can have value of their own if the writers intend them to. They can provide the intimacy in the relationship between the protagonist and the heroine and convey emotions in a more raw form, rather than it just being moaning sounds and poorly detailed physical descriptions they can have detail and more dialog or even inner thoughts instead of just moaning everywhere, a novel is to be read not heard and there's plenty of physical novels that have sex scenes that can be an enjoyable read and the same concept applies to VNs in my opinion. If an H-scene is done properly it can be an enjoyable part of the story as one can see how deep the relationship between said characters is. But most VNs disregard this latter option and just chose to have sales by abusing sexualization. Now these are the 2 sides i see when i analize H-scenes logically. However I admit to being somewhat of a pervert and i rarely skip said scenes. But wether the novel had them or not would not change my personal enjoyment of it, that's what I'm attempting to get at. I think it really just depends on the person who is reading the VN but i believe most should have an option to turn off the sexual content for people who do not enjoy it, i personally do not feel awkward with it but i'm rational enough to understand how it'd displease a lot of people who are trying to have a good read. With that said my conclusion is it really just can go both ways but it tends to go the "wrong" way 90% of the times (or at least from my own personal experience with VNs since most I've played are rated 18+) but in the end it all comes down to the users and stastistics are the general rule when it comes to publishing companies and they are very much aware of the high amount of male audience that has their hormones on a rampage to get another "waifu". I think this will always be up for debate and everyone will just have their personal opinion. With that i conclude my argument.
  9. Just finished Wanko to Kurasou. Was quite taken aback by the high amount of sexual CGs but no complains because lolis~ Currently starting Cross Channel
  10. Definitely Misaka. Also Rika, Taiga, Anko and Black Rabbit.
  11. I'd love to help if i could ;_; I just got confused when he said Misaka DNA and didn't understand who he was refering to, of course i know about Misaka Mikoto and her 20.000+ Imoutos!
  12. Though i also joined today, you are welcome to the forums sir~
  13. When Magic and Science meet, Touma's harem begins!
  14. There's never enough Misaka! I surely don't want a lot of me, too creepy.
  15. I know there's more Misaka in the New Testament novels but i haven't read those yet. I honestly hope they make a Toaru Majutsu no Index III and then adapt the New Testament novels into anime as well. It's just one of my favorite franchises. So you want to have a ton of clones with blank personality and shape them the way you want?
  16. Uhm.. Not sure what to think. I have the EX version of LB! and i already have played the 3 extra routes (untraslated). I think it's a pretty reasonable idea to introduce these final characters as they each have their own individual value (the biggest character introduced being Saya) What i think it will be is something that'll focus on those 3 characters' story (Sasami, Kanata and Saya) and present them as side stories since their routes (especially Saya's) occur simultaniously with the common route (in the VN) so i think a side story format for the series would work well enough. However on MAL it is listed as a sequel to Refrain which does not happen in the novel so i honestly do not know how they plan on adapting it. Either way i'm really looking forward to it! Great news to know they won't be leaving out Saya.
  17. Oh you mean the Misaka Mikoto's clone army? The sisters? I was just confused when you said Misaka DNA. Of course i also love Misaka (and her 9968 clones) I really like MISAKA 10032 but me being me i have to pick Last Order (MISAKA 20001) as my favorite. Toaru Kagaku no Railgun is on my top 5 Anime and Toaru Majutsu no Index was the only light novel i ever cared to read. Indeed it's a scary sight to imagine. One clone seems cool but more than that is just eerie. And the way they ended their sentences by literally spelling their gestures is just odd. I just wonder how none of the main characters from the series ever found out at least about ONE of her clones, how can you not encounter one of 9968 clones!?
  18. ARENA 01: Shiina Mashiro [Eucliwood Hellscythe] ARENA 02: Gokō Ruri (Kuroneko) [Nakano Azusa] ARENA 03: Kōsaka Kirino [Hasegawa Kobato] ARENA 04: [Kashiwazaki Sena] Yūki Asuna ARENA 05: Nishikino Maki Shiguma Rika [Leticia Draculair] ARENA 06: Minami Kana [Harusaki Chiwa] Kitashirakawa Tamako ARENA 07: Yusa Emi [Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko] Frenda Seivelun ARENA 08: Yuigahama Yui Itsuka Kotori [Mikasa Ackerman] ARENA 09: [Komichi Aya] Stocking Anarchy Kazanari Tsubasa ARENA 10: [Mihama Chiyo] Hinata Natsumi Mimi
  19. I guess i see your point, most people don't have anything out of the ordinary as fetishes. Hmm I love Kuudere characters for most part but i'm ambiguous when it comes to tsunderes, they're either extremely cute or extremely annoying, it goes both ways. By Misaka you mean?
  20. Doesn't everyone have at least one fetish? I don't think i'm some oddball but i'm glad this community is accepting, this is one of the reasons i joined as well, people can be polite here. Thank you very much ^^
  21. You could say that but at the same time it's sad since i have nothing else to do, i'm still attending high school since i failed to enter college but since it's only 3 classes per week i have a bunch of free time. I honestly can't imagine people like my 8 year old sister playing it, the target demographic for such games is at least mature enough to understand the concept of a kiss. I hope that publisher goes bankrupt for such an atrocity. I apologize I wasn't aware of this project. I just checked VNDB and all the info said the project had been dropped so i didn't know anyone else was still translating it. But I humbly praise you for doing so and will wait for the release patiently. And I hope someone can apply to that, honestly I don't know any translators or else I would help with all i could. I myself don't know a lot of japanese for the matter so i'm sorry. I wouldn't feel uncomfortable with H-scenes but i have no translating skills so this is not for me. I feel really bad now since i have so much free time i could completely be available to help, now i feel sorry for my lack of skills (´;ω;`)
  22. I'd have to say Love Lab has been one of my favorites for this summer. Each episode always made me laugh at some point and it just didn't get boring. Hopefully there's a season 2 depending on how they wrap it up in the last episode coming out this saturday. And I have to mention Kiniro Mosaic, definitely the best Slice of Life for this summer in my opinion. Also Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi was a different experience and a show like I haven't seen yet and left me with a lot of feels for it. I never started Gatchman Crowds although i was planning to initially, is it worth it?
  23. I plan on starting Cross†Channel soon and also continuing the SonoHana series (i'm on the 4th) and after that i have Steins;Gate and Katahane to play. I also downloaded Konosora but i've been reading about the restoration patch and it seems that it's still not perfect so i don't plan on playing it until a 2nd patch (which the author said to be the final) that restores everything flawlessly is available. Since the normal english release even has censored kiss scenes and any sort of sexual joke censored i refuse to play it, having no sexual CGs is not a big issue for me but when you censor a simple kiss i feel like the game shouldn't even be released as a romance title, the publishing company completely butchered a good Visual Novel and did the oposite of what they wanted which was "reach a wider audience". I hope to see you around as well, thank you for the welcome notice.
  24. Well i haven't really been checking the progress of that project regularly i just saw it once or twice but still i don't think it'll take a whole year for it to be completely translated, as far as patch progress i'm not expert but i hope that it can be released as soon as possible, i want the same experience i had with Hoshizora no Memoria and even if it does take a long time i still respect every person that puts their free time into translating it. And thank you for the welcome.
  25. I don't think it's so far away i mean it's at 84.86% it'd be really odd to drop it or slow down at this point after so much work. They might even complete it before 2013 is over. I'm guessing by EH you mean Hoshimemo Eternal Heart, that project has been dropped twice, no one's translating it currently. And sadly.
