Nosebleed

Idols? Count me in. I like the dark angle you're trying to take with it as well.

True, but this is still more expensive than all other sets I've seen. I'm gonna warrant it to it being a rather niche thing than anything else. Still, the Sekai Project one is definitely way too expensive as far as I can tell.
I would buy Nekopara nendoroids if they made them, but not 2 inch tall collectible figures. They look nice on pictures but they're kinda disappointing once you actually see how tiny they are lol.

Bocchi Musume x Produce Keikaku looks really interesting tbh, very happy to see an 18+ Otome title being released. Hopefully it does well.

(If you have nekopara installed, try it)

Even Sekai Project called it a nukige on their panel

It was trash like every other anime.

Played the game for a while, here's my feedback/suggestions:
I would really appreciate it if you could add some sort of small tutorial/hintbox at the start because I wandered around for like 10 minutes before I knew what to do.
Or just put some girls closer to your starting point ecause the initial area is so empty you really have no idea where you should be headed. All the girls I found at the start were just selling me stuff and I had no clue what to do with it. I also spent my only 10 bucks on a crepe and I have no idea how to earn money. After some more minues minutes I finally found a girl, and even then I wasn't sure what I was supposed to do with her since there's no hint, you just have to give them a gift and then they'll go on a date with you.
The dialogue is kind of awkward. And by kind of I mean almost always. I have never spoken to this girl and as soon as I give her a crepe she decides to go out on a date with me. Not only that, but when I pick a date spot and choose the date option, the first question she makes was "Did you miss me?" even though I had never met her before that day. The general pacing of the dialogue is also reallyyyy fast. It feels very unnatural to talk to the girls because things just move foward so quickly I don't even have a chance to know them.
The choices also seemed really strange at times. Maybe it was the girl I picked, but I had a choice between "let's go to karaoke" and "let's go get drunk", I picked the first because it sounds like a normal thing to do and it somehow turned out to be wrong. I mean, I'm not saying I'm a ladies man, but I figured on a first date you don't go "let's partaaaayyy!!1!", maybe I'm wrong though.
Like, really, what am I supposed to answer the question "What are you thinking about?" with when you only give me these 2 options?
 
 
I thought I would be a really insensitive prick if I said "about the girl behind you" so I said "global warming" even though I think that's just as terrible, but apparently even that was the wrong answer.
After some more awkward choices she says she had fun and then leaves me standing there.
I spent the next couple of minutes picking up squirrels despite not knowing what to do with them, but they're cute so who cares.
My AP goes down to zero, but I have no idea how to regain it because I've already eaten my crepe that I bought with all my money. There's tons of places that are locked and I have no idea how to unlock them either and there's only one other girl to talk to so I'm left with nothing to do in the game.
I tried the game you can play on a date but that wasn't particularly fun since the pieces were all jumbled in up and on top of one another so I have to spend time pulling them aside and assembling them again, but that initial process always makes me lose too much time to get a decent score.
Eventually I discovered you can sell the squirrels for money although I don't know where you sell them, but I felt really bad for them since they're cute and decided I'd rather not either way, so I'm now stuck in the game forever since I can't buy gifts.
Okay that last bit was a joke (except the fact I still don't know where to sell the squirrels), I just figured I'd stop there because I think I've seen enough to give some feedback.
Here's my suggestions to improve initial impressions and overall experience.
You should probably have some form of menu music. Add an in-game menu that lets you quit to the title and save. I didn't know how to leave the game without closing the app and I thought if I did that I'd lose all my progress. As I mentioned earlier, a hintbox that pops up when you click stuff or some form of early tutorial would REALLY help because I was stuck for a while not knowing what to do.  I don't know if it's randomized but you could really do with having the girls closer to you when you start isntead of literally the furthest area possible from you. Also please tell me you didn't use royalty free ukulele music for the BGM of the game. It doesn't matter what else you use, just not royalty free ukulele music. Please. A run button or some form of faster transportation would be really helpful considering you intend on having a big map with different areas to travel to. It's nice that you can choose to be male or female, but could be even better if there was some form of character costumization. Improve the dialogue/choices to make the girls sound more like humans because it felt really silly when I talked to one for the first time  Game kinda lagged whenever I switched areas, you might want to try and smooth that out. It might just be my tablet though. Overall, BlewMyMoneyOnCrepesAndSpentMyTimeCatchingSquirrels/10.
I think you have a solid foundation to build on here, don't get me wrong, but my initial experience wasn't particularly positive because the game feels so empty and the characters are rather lifeless.
Edit:
Eventually I found out where you can sell the squirrels and unlock the rest of the map, you need to actually buy the master key.
Now I'm not going to sit here and lecture you on micro transactions, but I think locking so much of the game away behind a pay wall is kind of a poor decision because my earlier experience is already negative which makes me not want to spend 1€ to unlock the rest of the game.
If you can improve the earlier experience though I think I'd be fine with paying for it since it can turn out to be fun if you polish it.

It's not "people" it's "certain people", everyone's different. The problem is that "nudity being evil" has been the status quo for a while, and it's much harder to fight against it than to change it. But I agree nudity by itself shouldn't be worthy of censorship, sadly it's seen as a perversion by many and will likely stay that way.
If humans still walked around naked maybe you'd have a case for yourself, but because we decided to invent clothes and cover ourselves up, eventually our naked bodies just became this stigmatized thing to be hidden by default.

Translating H-scenes sucks. It's boring, plain and simple. The longer they are the more annoying they get to translate. It's the same patterns over and over with little to no variation. The sound effects are often random as well and have no real purpose to them (vaginas don't go gyuuu). Basically most translators don't want to do nukige because it's just not fun.

I mean, it's pretty obvious it's a yaoi series, so you'd expect the comedy to have yaoi elements
I personally found Love Stage funny, even if it's completely different than what I usually enjoy. I feel like it could be a good entry point into yaoi, but maybe I'm wrong.

Naruto Shippuden's been stalled since episode 40 something came out. There wasn't any particular reason, I just lost interest. Then when I got into anime back in 2012 I realized it's still going, but there were so many episodes I didn't think it would be worth it. And i was right.
Eventually I just read the entire manga, so I don't regret not wasting my time watching all the filler.

It's never too early to become a pro Karuta player. May you become the first Gaijin Meijin.
Today I ordered some more books, namely Orange vol 1 (vol 2 was sold out) and Oyasumi Punpun vol 1 (gonna wait and see if I can get a better price for vol 2).

Chihayafuru completely broke me down. Whenever I think "I want, I need, to play something", I think of karuta. I don't care if no one else will play with me, I need to at least give it a shot. With that said I ordered myself a karuta set.
