    Nosebleed got a reaction from elmaxa1997 in Little Busters!   
    Little Busters! If You're Using 'English Edition', Use This Guide     Summary Riki was a child when his parents died, leaving him hopeless and depressed. What saved him was a group of four kids calling themselves the Little Busters. They took Riki out and played with him during his time of need. He really enjoyed being together with them, and his grief gradually faded away. Now in his second year of high school they still hang out, fight and live together, and enjoy their school life.   Ending Guideline / Suggested Route Order (Important! Please read)

    Nosebleed got a reaction from Cryptic_MGTOW in Forum Rules   
    Forum Rules
     
    While Fuwanovel is all for discussion and having fun, we still wish to have a regulated atmosphere that's not harmful to our users, these rules are meant to keep said atmosphere on stable levels. Please read each point carefully.
    Fuwanovel's number 1 rule is Respect and Civility.
    Don't personally insult anybody. Don't be a troll or promote misconduct. Don't bait or harass any user or staff member. We take these offenses very seriously and we hope our users respect this rule above all else.
    General Forum Guidelines
    These guidelines are meant to be followed when posting on our forums.
    Don't embed explicit hentai images or videos on posts/threads, use Spoiler tags/URL form instead and tag it as NSFW. Don't advocate for any real-life crime. This is taken very seriously and will likely result in a permanent ban. Don't post any real life pornography of any kind. Don't provide or request illegal sources for copyrighted material, use legal sources instead. Don't spam the Recent Topics box. Don't post content you know might offensive to someone or a group of people. Don't post staff PMs in public, if you have any issue with how the staff carried something out, talk it out in private with a moderator instead. Don't bring personal issues in public, if you and other user(s) don't get along, please don't bring your strife to the forum. Don't promote or link to fan translations that either cost money or require you to make money for the patch creator to get. This includes things like patreon-only patch releases and using ad-infested link shorteners for downloads. Global Moderators and Board Moderators are responsible for carrying out the rules and it is up to them to interpret them and carry out an appropriate punishment for each situation.
    Lolicon/Shotacon Policy
    Pedophilia is an extremely complicated and sensitive real-life issue, and presents a significant challenge to visual novel communities who want to promote thoughtful discussion but are faced with strict laws on one hand and deplorable internet rhetoric/insensitivity on the other. Many of you are aware of how far back and how divisive this issue has been. To protect the site from legal action and to resolve this issue once and for all, we have chosen to amend the site rules as follows. We're trying to strike a delicate balance here -- acknowledging this is part of the VN medium, and sensitive discussions of these topics are important. 
    The new policy: Fuwanovel is not the place to discuss the nuances of pedophilia – in real life or in entertainment. Because they are a part of the traditional VN heritage of Japanese games, we acknowledge that mature, focused discussions of “loli” characters and routes within a visual novel are valid, and we will allow them within the Visual Novel discussion boards, but beyond those confines, Fuwanovel is just not the place for this topic. We have also clarified our rules for posted or linked images of "lolis" on the boards, which can be read below:
    Brass Tacks:
    If you want to discuss a “loli” character or route in a visual novel, you can do so in the VN boards with the caveat that crude, inflammatory, provocative or aggressive posts will be grounds for a topic’s deletion, without warning Outside the realm of Visual Novels, Fuwanovel is simply not the place to discuss this complicated issue, and we ask you to avoid casual references to-, or discussions about-, pedophilia and the sexuality/sensuality of underage people or characters. This includes avoiding discussion or mention of porn- or sex-simulation games featuring underage or underage-appearing characters to the forums.  Rules for images, avatars, and signatures: Do not post sexual pictures of underage characters. If an image is focused on, accentuates, or exaggerates a character's nipples, vulva, or penis or positions them sensually (body position, wet panties, nearly naked, etc.), you should not post it and it will be taken down. No erotic form Toddlercon is not allowed. Post will be taken down and you will either get warning or ban. Attitudes of the staff vary significantly on this issue, but this policy is presented – purposefully – without moral commentary. This is a tricky issue which presents real risks for the stability of the site, and ensuring the community’s longevity simply has to come first. 
    Thread rules These rules are meant to keep threads as clean and free of trouble as possible.
    Please try to keep responses on-topic and meaningful. Don't derail threads. Don't spam threads. Don't double post repeatedly. Don't post for the sake of posting. Don't necrobump threads without the intent of continuing the discussion. Don't post seizure inducing GIFs without a spoiler and a warning labeling it as such. Any posts that are seen to fit in these categories or seen to be harmful to the thread risk being moved or deleted, or at worse getting the entire thread locked.
    Additionally some boards have their own specific rules, please see related topics inside each one of Fuwanovel's boards (they are usually pinned at the top).
    Blog Rules
    Blogs are meant to be personal and we try to respect everyone's rights to write about the things they like, however if a blog post is seen to break any content rules, staff holds the right to delete the entry as they see fit.
    Signature and Avatar Guidelines
    No explicit nudity (genitalia and female nipples are in this category) No avatars or signatures featuring sexualized loli/shota characters No pornography (this includes implied sexual acts and bodily fluids) No gore (disembowelment, dismemberment, torture, etc.) No offensive content (profanity, hate speech, offensive symbolism, etc.) No seizure inducing GIFs (or GIFs that make people's eyes bleed in general) No signatures exceeding 400 Kbs in filesize Reporting Content
    Whenever you come across content on the forums which breaks one of these rules, please report it using the report button underneath said post and explain why it's breaking the rules. 
    Any member, no matter how new, has the right to report posts.
    You will not be punished for reporting any post, even if your report is deemed unjustified*
    *While reporting a post is fine, spamming reports in order to troll/abuse the report system is not and can lead to you to getting a warning.
    In case of doubt:
    If you have any doubts about how to proceed in any situation or if said situation is not listed here, please contact one of the online Global Moderators via Personal Message with your inquiry. Global Moderators have a blue usercolor at the bottom of the forum for easier identification. 
    In case none of them are online during that time, the list of Global Moderators as well as the rest of the Fuwanovel Staff can be found here so you can message one of them.
    Rule Enforcement
    We trust Fuwanovel users to keep their composure when the situation calls for it. In any case of a serious infraction a Global Moderator is responsible for carrying out an appropriate punishment that can handle the situation effectively for both sides.
    Smaller punishments like revoking the ability to post content for a period of time can be given out if the situation calls for it (namely for spamming and trolling), without granting a warning point if a Global Moderator sees fit to do so.
    Warning Points are only given out to reoccurring or serious offenders that do not heed either rules or previous warnings. A Global Moderator is in charge of deciding whether or not a user deserves a warning point.
    Global Moderators are free to give harsher punishments like suspensions if they clearly notice the violation is severe or has ill intent behind it.
    There is a 3 Warning Point cap and when a user receives a 3rd warning point, they acknowledge they are putting their account in jeopardy and risk being banned permanently.
    Do not evade bans, if you create a second account to evade your ban, you risk getting it lengthened.
    If you feel you were not justly banned, you can PM a Global Moderator with your reasoning and that Global Moderator will bring it up for discussion with the rest of the staff to see if it is valid or not.
    In case a warning point was given out and a ban is proven to be unjustified, your warning point will automatically be revoked. 
    In case your ability to post content was revoked and it is proven to be unjustified, it will be rectified.
    Username Changes
    To prevent user-confusion, the ability to change your username at whim has been removed from the user control panel. To change your username, please PM one of the global mods with your desired new user display name and your reason for making the change. Username changes require a strong reason and motivation to be changed, and will otherwise be denied to prevent confusion on the forums.
    User Title Changes
    User titles (the titles you see below your avatar) can be changed at any time by making a contribution to the community.  Here are a few examples of ways to help out.  When you've completed your good deed, please report to a Global Moderator, who can make the change for you.  
    Assisting in coding projects and/or working on the front site; Helping with forums projects; Writing a walkthrough for a game; Writing an article for the Visual Novel Aer blog; Posting 500+ posts on the forums (posts in the "Coliseum of Chatter" do not add to this count); Or something else you can think of! Note: Users with 500+ posts have, in simply posting so regularly, helped to build the site.  Thank you for your contributions!  We hope you'll keep it up.  These users can change their user title at any time from the user CP.
    Definitions
    These definitions serve as guidelines to define certain types of content. In case of doubt on whether or not something fits within one of these categories, a Global Moderator can make the judgement call.
    Spam
    Content without any purpose, coherency or relevance whatsoever.
    Singular spam posts are deleted without warning. If a user makes many spam posts in one thread or singular spam posts across many threads, then they are subject to a punishment.
    Threads or blog posts made for self-promotion (such as links to off-site personal blogs) should be limited to one (either a blog post or a thread) per product being promoted, because such promotion is more easily perceived as spam.
    Derailing
    Going completely off topic in a thread, this can result in the thread being locked or moved to a more appropriate section depending on whether or not it's salvageable.
    Harassment & Abuse
    This involves aggressive pressure or intimidation and can based off of things like racism, sexism, xenophobia, homophobia, etc.
    This will never be tolerated anywhere on the forum, even in private messages, and severe punishment will be applied to any cases of it.
    Posting for the sake of posting
    Posting several times in a thread without trying to move the discussion forward and only to increase post count and/or to troll/spam.
    Necrobumping threads without the intent of moving the discussion forward also falls into this category.
    NSFW
    Content that is too sexually explicit or excessively violent that could offend certain age groups.
    For something to be sexually explicit it must show either genitals, female nipples or sexual acts.
    Trolling
    Starting arguments or upsetting users by posting inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages with the intent of provoking users into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

    Insults
    An insult is a derogatory remark that labels an individual or group of users. Name-calling is not productive and typically derails the topic by turning the discussion to the credibility of the user(s). It never convinces the other party and often provokes a similar reaction from other posters. The resulting commotion is ineffective for the offender, offensive for the target, distracting for spectators and tiring for the staff.

        Summary
    Gunjo Gakuen (Deep Blue School) is a facility designed to gather and isolate those students who got a high score on an adaptation exam (scoring high on this exam indicates that the student is less likely to be able to adapt to society) mandated by the government.   After a failed summer vacation with other members of the school's broadcasting club, Taichi Kurosu and some of the other club members return to the city, only to find that all living creatures within it except for the club members have completely vanished. In order to confirm the status of the outside world, Taichi decides to gather other club members to help Misato Miyasumi, the president of the broadcasting club, who is trying to set up a broadcasting antenna to contact any possible survivors.   Ending Guideline / Suggested Route Order   Cross Channel consists of a single ending and therefore there will be no replaying the game to get every single path. Instead the game repeats itself as you're progressing and you get to experience each heroine individually and then reach a true ending after all of their "routes" are done.  You will start off the game in what is known as "week one" where only one route is available.

    Nosebleed got a reaction from ihateuall34 in What do you think of incest?   
    I'm assuming since this is in GD that you mean real incest?
    And here are my thoughts: I couldn't care less
    As long as both parties are consentual what does it matter? It's good for them and I move on with my life without being affected by it whatsoever.
    The only valid and solid argument one can make in my opinion is: It's not biologically reliable. This is a fact, it can't be disputed.
    However there are all sorts of things that are not biologically reliable such as homosexuality. Thus in my opinion this argument is mostly invalid if you aprove of homosexuality and other things that are not reliable.
    In the end it all comes down to morals and I don't care for morals so it's useless for one to preach on this matter for me. 
    As long as both people are into it, who am i to judge? Go for it. 
    Everyone can move on. They're both happy and life goes on.
    I want to add I personally would never be interested in having an incestual relationship with any of my family members. But what other people chose is their choice not mine and that's how it should be.
     
    In fact incest is legal in my country as long as both parties are over 18 and consent to it and I see no problems with it as well.

    They also have multiple orgasms in a short span of time which is physically impossible due to the human body's phisiology.
     
    The creatures in eroge which we often refer to as male protagonists have a portal to a different dimension in their genitals that allows for unlimited storage of fluids. They also deny negative feedback in their brains which allows for multiple orgasms. They are not human.

    If there was a change I could make, it would be to have Chinami say Onii-chan more often.

    Nosebleed got a reaction from Fiddle in Nosebleed's Guide to Ero Audio   
    I pondered for a while whether or not I should make this, but I figured it can't hurt that much, right? Hopefully some people will find it useful and maybe others will discover a new medium they never thought they'd enjoy before.
    Let's start with the basics then: What is audio porn? 
    As the name implies, it's audio-only pornography. No images, no videos, just sound.
    Isn't that for visually impaired people? How does this work for me?
    This is for anyone who enjoys stimulation through audio, not just people who can't use their sight.
    Sounds can cause all kinds of reactions in a person, and some of those reactions can be a state of arousal. You might be familiar with ASMR, which are audio tracks with all sorts of different sounds meant to trigger certain physical responses in your body that help you relax. Audio porn follows a similar principle, except the intention here is to get your nether region worked up.
    It sounds really boring though, what does this type of porn provide?
    Audio has one advantage over other erotic mediums given that it's not bound by visuals. What I mean by that is everything plays out in your head, not in front of your eyes.
    With anime, manga or visual novels you see the events unfold in front of you and you watch them, but with audio by itself you can get your imagination working and make the track adapt to your tastes much better.
    Think of it like when you read a book and all sorts of settings pop up in your mind, that's what audio does in this case too.
    Isn't it the same as just listening to some H-scene in a VN?
    On the contrary, it's everything but that.
    Audio porn (at least the good tracks) utilizes techniques to enhance the listening experience for you so it doesn't feel like you're listening to someone else having sex but rather that someone is actually there with you and you're being affected by their actions. You can have tracks that really know how to mix the audio to make a realistic surrounding effect, giving you the idea that the person in the track is closing in or getting further away from you, among other things, and that's the type of stimulation audio porn seeks to achieve.
    Visual novels and anime aren't designed to be listened to in great detail, they're meant to be watched, and because of that they're not very catered to your ears.
    But audio porn is hand crafted to be a one of a kind experience for your ears to savour.
    Okay, I guess I could give it a try, where do I start?
    Well I'm glad you asked!
    First off let me get this out of the way really quickly: I will only be dealing with Japanese audio tracks.
    Because everything in Japanese, there's two major implications when it comes to erotic audio: You need to have at least a vague knowledge of basic hentai vocabulary. Without any prior Japanese knowledge, it's unlikely you'll be able to enjoy most audio works with any form of dialogue. HOWEVER there are audio works that primarly feature sound effects rather than dialogue, so you can probably still enjoy those, you'll just need to be on the lookout for which is what.
    Let's start with the best place to find this type of content, and the one I personally rely on: http://www.dlsite.com/
    Why dlsite? Well first off it's the place where all the main doujin circles go to to sell their amateur works digitally, and also because it's really foreigner friendly, seeing as they even have an English version of the site where you can buy this stuff too, and yes, the prices are the same on both.
    For the purposes of this guide though I will strictly be using the Japanese version of dlsite. The reason is simple, the Japanese version of dlsite is the most complete version that has all the available products. Some circles don't make certain products available on the English site, either because they don't want to or because they forget that it exists (it's often the latter).
    When it comes to voice works, from my experience, the vast majority (over 90%) of the audio tracks available on the JP store are also available on the ENG store, so it shouldn't really be a problem regardless of which one you choose to go for.
    Basic searching
     
    When you go on dlsite.com you want to hit 同人作品 (Doujin works) on either the pink column on the purple column as those are the two sections where you'll find most of these things.
    The pink side is for a male audience and mostly features works with female voice acting.
    The purple side is for a female audience and mostly features works with male voice acting.
    If you're curious on the rest, the green side is for all ages products and the light blue side is for a gay male audience.
    The red side will take you to the English versions of each store (the adult store includes all adult products both for males and females)
    I don't want to make separate sections for each since they all work the same way so for the purpose of the guide I'll consider we picked the male side.
    So the first thing you want to do is click on 検索 (search). Yes, you technically didn't type anything in the search bar, but that's okay, so long as this is what shows up after:

    In order to filter things out, you have to click on 検索条件を変更する (change search criteria) on the bottom right corner of the search bar.
    Scroll down and click on the 作品形式 (Work type) tab as seen here and once it opens you can to select 音声作品 (Voice works), this will bring up every product that is voiced. However, some applications and other things like PDFs might pop up, so we want to filter those out since we're only looking for audio tracks.
    On the same page, scroll down to the ファイル形式 (File type) section, right here.
    Once you open that, scroll down to the オーディオファイル (Audio files) category as seen here. I just select the whole tab by checking the box next side the tab name,  this will make it so that your search only shows products that are strictly based around audio. However, if you want specify formats like MP3, you can also pick the files you want from the list.
    Once you're done with these steps, just scroll down to the big orange box that says 検索 (Search).
    The final result should be a search bar that looks like this:
    Now if you want you can stop here and just go on your merry way to browse all the voice works available from most recent to oldest.
    You can also organize the results by the following criteria if you open that scroll down menu:
    発売日が新しい順 (Newest) 発売日が古い順 (Oldest) DL数が多い順 (Most downloads) 価格が安い順 (Cheapest) 価格が高い順 (Priciest) 評価が高い順 (Most positive ratings) レビューが多い順 (Most reviews) Not very hard now is it?
    Stuff to pay attention to before you buy anything

    Now let's imagine you found one that seems interesting. When you open the product page, here's the things you want to be on the lookout for first and foremost:
    Genre (ジャンル) This is where all the main themes of the product will be listed. I'm not going to translate all of them, but if you don't know Japanese, you can easily put them on Google TL as they're usually just one common word. For example, this is where you'd find stuff like "incest" or "blowjob", if the track had those things.
    Sample clip Not all products will have this option, by the way, but a lot of them have a preview box at the top of the description that lets you play a small clip to see if you like it. I strongly advise you to do so before spending your money as you may end up regretting it if you don't like how it sounds later on.
    Audio quality When you listen to the sample clip, check if there's background noises, if they properly utilize the left and right channels, if there's voice distortion, etc.
    Basically look for stuff that doesn't sound like it was recorded with a cucumber inside an elevator.
    The best tracks will have very little background noise even when the person recording is completely silent and they'll give you a good illusion that they're actually moving around you or are getting close to you. The bad tracks feel like you're listening to a drama CD and not to a person sitting next to you, they generally just use surround sound for the whole thing and it's not that pleasant to listen to.
    Length Almost every single product has its length listed in the description, what varies is how they display it. They either do it track by track or have the full length of all tracks combined.
    If you can't read Japanese, again Google TL should suffice to help, just look at the last track on the list and see if it's just the title of the track or if it says something like "total amount".
    Examples:
    In this case the creator only lists all the tracks in this work. All of the names before the time stamps are track titles, which means the total length is all those values combined.
    In this second case all the tracks are still listed but on the bottom you see 合計 (Total amount) which is all of the previous time stamps added up.
    The time stamps might show up in Japanese format. If they do, just know that 時 is hour 分 is minutes and 秒 is seconds. In the above example the total is 58 minutes and 29 seconds.
    Lastly, still regarding the length, check each individual track's title, which usually will describe what the track is, and then see how long it is. This way you can know how much time the product will spend on each thing and you can look for stuff that spend more time on the stuff you want.
    And of course it's ultimately important to know the length because you want to know if the money is worth that amount of time.
    Specs As with anything you buy, always check the specs at the bottom. Of course, since these are audio files, you don't really have "specs", but it's still worthy to scroll down and see what the hell you're actually downloading.
    Voice actors Every single product lists down the voice actors that worked on it. It's useful to know because a lot of these people are freelancers who do commission based work  so they're not bound to one specific company/circlle. And if you know their names you can search for other products voiced by them, in case you really enjoyed someone's voice. 
    The voice actor is almost always listed in the description after the letters CV. You can just copy their name into the search bar and it'll look up works where their name appears in the description.
    Circles and Series Of course if you end up loving a track you will likely want something similar to it again, this is when looking up the circle or the series the track belongs to is helpful.
    On the product's page, the circle is listed after サークル名 (Circle name)  and the series is listed after シリーズ名 (Series name).
    The circle is the group of people (or the person, in case of a solo circle) who made the product, so if you click on it you'll be looking at other works they've made.
    The series usually includes other works of similar nature, or even sequels/prequels to a certain product.
    Searching for your fetishes

    So we now know how to look up voice works on dlsite pretty effectively, but the reason we're here for is to listen to those fetishes we're really into isn't it?
    Well fear not because searching for your fetishes is easy peasy, you just need to specify the search filters a bit more.
    Once again click on 検索条件を変更する (change search criteria), and after making sure you have the audio options selected, you want to go to the 趣味嗜好 (Preferences) tab, and here you'll find all the tags available on dlsite to filter your search with.
    You have 2 first options:
     いずれかを含 (Look for products that contains at least one of the selected tag)  全てを含む (Look for products that contain all selected tags) I wouldn't recommend using the "look for products with all these tags" option though because sometimes the creators forget to list down some really specific stuff and then it might get filtered out despite having that kind of stuff in it. Although generally speaking, if you use the more broad tags, which in time you'll notice there's a lot of common ones, you should have no problem since they're widely used.
    Then you have the tags themselves. I'm obviously not going to translate all of them and I would hope that you can use google translate if you really can't read any of it. I don't suggest using the English dlsite store for comparing the filters because some of them are not in the same order.
    However I'll translate the main categories if that'll help:
    こだわり/アピール (Focus/Appeal) - Basically the really generic themes, I don't suggest using these アイテム/道具 (Items/tools) - Stuff like glasses and sex toys キャラクター (Character) - Everything related to the characters themselves, these are the filters you're likely going to want コスチューム/衣装/職業 (Outfits/Occupations) - Mainly relevant for visual works, not for voice works シチュエーション/系統 (Situations) - Basically the setting of the plot, possibly not too relevant プレイ/えっち傾向 (Type of sexual play) - Again one you'll likely want to use. 外見/身体的特徴 (Outter appearance/Body features) - Not really relevant for voice works either 残酷系/異常系 (Brutality/Weirdness) - This is for the fucked up shit like ryona and guro, again not relevant for voice works Usually voice works use character and sexual play tags so I recommend focusing on those.
    One last tip! As I mentioned earlier, a pretty decent amount of the releases on dlsite JP are available on the ENG version of the site as well and there's actually a really easy way to check if the product you want is available on the English vesion.   Open a product on the JP site and go to the URL which should end with RJ and then some numbers. Simply change RJ to RE (J is for Japanese and E is for English) and go to that URL. If there's a page for it on the English version of the site, it will immediately show up with everything translated (albeit poorly translated but what can you do), this should help you with some of the earlier steps like trying to translate tags and descriptions.   Example: How to make the best use out of your tracks.

    If you have half a brain I'm sure you know how to listen to music on your devices, so this isn't much different. However, there are always a couple things you can do to enhance your experience.
    It's important to note that each person has their own way of dealing with this stuff so take everything below with a grain of salt and do what you think feels best!
    Make sure you're alone. I shouldn't have to tell you, but even if it's audio-only, this is porn. Wear headphones with good isolation. The less real life noises you hear, the better your immersion will be. Close your eyes. This is an audio-only medium, there's no need to have your eyes open as it can be distracting. Turn the lights off. While closing your eyes help, being in complete darkness increases the experience even more. Don't skip around. Be patient and don't skip the track, it will just break the immersion and the narrative. Follow the story. I'm not going to teach you how to masturbate, but I'm just telling you things feel way better if you go at the story's pace. Fun fact: listening to some longer tracks where the girl in the story makes the protagonist (you) climax multiple times has taught me about my refractory period pretty well. If you're a guy, this is not a bad way to find how long will it take for you to get back in it again, if you find that kind of information useful at all.
    If you take too long to do it a 2nd time, I suggest always waiting until the last bits of the track to actually finish. There's usually pretty good verbal indicators that the scene is about to reach it's climax, so make the best use out of that.
    Wasn't this just a guide on how to use dlsite?
    I'm sure you've realized most of this post was on how to properly use dlsite's features, but there's actually a very good reason for that, and that is dlsite is the only site where you'll be able to search for voice works accurately.
    What I mean by this is that even if I wanted to Google things just to pirate tracks I want, without dlsite I wouldn't be able to know what the track is even about, let alone search for things with my fetishes. Dlsite exponentially opens the doors for you with tons of tags and products to look through and that's something you will never get anywhere else, so that's why it's so important to learn how to use it if you want to get into the medium.
    As a closing thought, I don't want to lecture people on the morals of piracy, but I'd like to point out that all these things are self published works produced by small doujin circles that do all the recording, mixing, funding, etc. by themselves. Most tracks (including good ones) will cost you about 6 bucks and even the longest, most well produced ones will probably only be around 10 bucks, so there's really no reason not to support these people when they're making their work and talent available for such a low price tag. I can't count how many great freelance voice actresses I've managed to find through this medium and buying the works they make and be able to support further tracks makes me feel like I did something to help the world.
    AND THAT'S ALL!
    This ended up being a fairly wordy post but honestly, it's really not that hard to look this stuff up once you learn how everything works, I just thought I'd explain literally everything there is to possibly know in case someone who's never used dlsite reads this. I hope this brings a new medium to some people who might enjoy it.  
    And even if this post ends up buried and nobody cares about it, at the very least I can feel proud of myself for having written something this big.
    Tfw your longest post in ages is about audio erotica.
    Have fun with your faps, Onii-chan.
      Time to go to bed now and re-think my life.

    Nosebleed got a reaction from Templarseeker in Cross†Channel   
    Cross†Channel
        Summary
    Gunjo Gakuen (Deep Blue School) is a facility designed to gather and isolate those students who got a high score on an adaptation exam (scoring high on this exam indicates that the student is less likely to be able to adapt to society) mandated by the government.   After a failed summer vacation with other members of the school's broadcasting club, Taichi Kurosu and some of the other club members return to the city, only to find that all living creatures within it except for the club members have completely vanished. In order to confirm the status of the outside world, Taichi decides to gather other club members to help Misato Miyasumi, the president of the broadcasting club, who is trying to set up a broadcasting antenna to contact any possible survivors.   Ending Guideline / Suggested Route Order   Cross Channel consists of a single ending and therefore there will be no replaying the game to get every single path. Instead the game repeats itself as you're progressing and you get to experience each heroine individually and then reach a true ending after all of their "routes" are done.  You will start off the game in what is known as "week one" where only one route is available. Making wrong choices will not give you a bad ending, it will merely make you repeat that week again and you may change your choices to attempt and get the heroine you want, hence why i will be omitting the Bad End section from this walkthrough. Regarding a suggested route order there isn't one as the game has a forced playing order to unlock each path.   Route Guideline     Miyasumi Misato
    (Week one)

        Good End

        Kirihara Touko
    (Week two)

        Good End
        Sakura Kiri

    Nosebleed got a reaction from droganpc in New Profile Fields [Accepting Suggestions]   
    Hey let's blow the dust off of this subforum for a bit shall we?
    I noticed we haven't really updated the profile info since... Fuwa was made basically (other than that one time we added Steam to user profiles). I figured I'd go ahead and add some things users might want.
    List of things added so far:
    Twitter has now been added under Contact Methods  Anilist, ANN (Anime News Network) and Kitsu (formerly known as Hummingbird) are now options for those that don't have a MAL account Transgender, Other and Attack Helicopter are now available gender options Projects has now been added under Profile Information where you can specify whatever VN projects you work (or have worked) on. This isn't for me alone though, so I decided to make a thread and ask for people's suggestions regarding what other fields might be useful to have in their profiles.
    Important note:
    These are small fields that will go either under your contact methods or your profile information section. They're meant to be short. Preferrably things like the username you have on the respective website or something along those lines. Because of this, things like Youtube channels have already been ruled out due to the URLs being too long. Keep that in mind when suggesting.
    Furthermore, make sure that your suggestion isn't just for you but is actually something legitimately useful for the users on the forum.

    Nosebleed got a reaction from droganpc in Why people are so insecure about the subject of h scenes in vn?   
    Porn doesn't have to be art. Porn can just be porn. That still doesn't discredit its existence in any way, shape or form.
    Again I'm repeating myself but this comes down entirely to people's taste in the genre. You clearly hate sex scenes, and that's fine, but don't bash other people and call them delusional for merely having a different preference.
    You are literally trying to justify a personal preference of yours as some universal fact, and I'm sorry to tell you but that won't go anywhere.
    And let's assume everything you said is true. That h-scenes give a bad name to vns, that h-scenes are pointless, that they literally only harm the medium. EVEN THEN, that is still no reason for people not to like them.
    I think you should just accept the fact there are different audiences in the medium and in this case you're just not part of it.

    Nosebleed got a reaction from Emi in Hey   
    Even after disappearing I still encounter fuwa members at random on discover servers, including people who no longer visit lol.
    Sort of, for a while. In the end I pretty much stopped watching anime and solely stuck to manga as I can read a lot of it in a short amount of time. I think the common theme in all this is that I felt a lack of time and motivation to do anything, but things are better now, although I still pretty much don't watch anime on the regular, whereas I read manga everyday.
    No promises, but I'll try posting more whenever something that interests me pops up!
    I remember almost everyone, surprisingly! Although I don't recall many specific moments anymore, but I still look fondly at Fuwa.

    Summary
    A spin-off of the popular Toradora Anime.
    Unlike in the original story, this time Takasu Ryuuji finds himself in a hospital bed. Confused and dizzy he's suddenly greeted by a short girl who calls him by a strange name. Is this his name? Who is this girl? It's soon after that the shocking truth comes to the surface. Amnesia. Poor Ryuuji suffered an accident after christmas eve and forgot everything about his past, his friends, his likes, his relationships, even his own name. 
    As he leaves the hospital he meets up with all sorts of people who seem to be acquainted with him. A beautiful blonde girl who apparently lives with him. His best friends Kitamura and Minori. The popular model Kawashima Ami and even his pet parakeet Inko-chan. These people hold all of Ryuuji's memories and they are the key to unlocking his past.
    What will Ryuuji do? Will he be able to recover all of his past? An eventful journey awaits him as new year approaches and the new school semester comes closer by the day. Will he be able to remember everything before school starts? And if he does will anything in his new life change? It's all up to you to you decide.
     Ending Guideline / Suggested Route Order
    This novel has an enforced playing order so you will not be able to avoid bad endings straight away.
    Each ending is graded at the end of the game by Yuri, she'll score it from the worst possible (50 points) to the best possible (100 points).
    There's a lot of dialog choices that are only available if you pick certain items while cleaning/talking.
    The common route always branches at the exact same point and you'll get a different scenario based on the choices you made.
    The game is divided into 3 scenarios: Kitamura & Kano, Courage Test and Solution.
    Within each scenario you have several character routes that you can get into.
    This is an ending guide not a full walkthrough
    Following this entire guide will get you around 90% completition of the game.
    Why not 100%? There's numerous ways of getting into the same ending and each of those counts as a percentage of the game. Every single choice, item and path is a percetange. My goal here is to give you all the endings not every single path in the game.
    There is a list at the end with every single item if you want to know where to find a specific one. You can view your items in the extras option.
    All 21 endings in the game are listed below.
    If you want to complete the game 100% you can try and search for new paths by pressing L during dialogs in order to see the route diagram. 
    Make different choices, pick up all the items you can by cleaning and talking and see if you can go in all the paths.
