Andromis

Kirisu is perplexing. I don't like tsundere much at all, but part of me argues that she isn't a tsundere, just a stubborn woman. Her excitement for science with Okabe is infectious and she generally is a fun character. That particular depiction isn't a great one, but I still like her despite tsundere character traits. 8/10

You squat like a western spy! Is that what you are? HUH?!
 
   

Back in 2015 we had a great thing going with a blog called Fabulous on Fuwa mostly run by Rose, highlighting cool users, threads and projects weekly. 
Eventually it died out, and I think it's about time we bring it back in a monthly format. 
If you're an active fuwanovel user who wants to join our team and show everyone the coolest things going on in the forums, please say so in this thread. I'll be making a team with interested members and it's as simple as keeping an eye out for cool things going on, posting it to the team and organizing things with everyone for a monthly blog post. There's also a neat badge in stock for everyone who'll be part of the team, so look forward to that!
As a secondary announcement, check out fuwa's discord channel made yesterday. We're running a monthly VN club and right now it's voting week for what we'll read. 
Let's make a great team and hope to see you soon! 
 

This is amazing, how long did it take you to do this? Seems like it took quite a bit of work.

Out of every single pair of headphones I have ever bought there has not been one instance wherein one side did not die
Truly it is the bane of my existence
 

After watching it, I will have to agree with you 100% it was an amazing movie even though it seems that it is one of those movies that either bores you 30 minutes in or keeps you interested and mesmerized the whole way through like it did with me. Everything about it from the cinematography, the style and soundtrack is amazing. It's a shame that people were critical of it once it first came out. But what amazes me the most about it is how in one of those typical examples of life imitating art, just a few years after the movie, Chernobyl would occur. The quarantined area around the area are referred to as the Zone of Alienation, the Zone of Exclusion or the Fourth Zone and scientists who study the forbidden region (and the guides who take people there illegally) even refer to themselves as “stalkers” in reference to this amazing piece of film.
Roadside is one of those books that I recommend everyone that I know to read, it is an classic IMO. Also, I find it funny that you mention S.T.A.L.K.E.R. as it is what introduced me to both the book and movie and even though it is based very loosely on both it does reference many important plot points from the book, such as
All in all, it is an amazing book that will always be one of my favorites and the movie that was influenced by it is amazing as well.
P.S. You mentioned that you have read more of the Strugatsky brother's books, and even though most of them were propaganda influenced as you mentioned, is there still any that you would recommend?

I usually don't have this problem as I have the door to my room locked most of the time to avoid my roommates walking in on me when I'm playing a VN, but I would have to agree with what @MarcomiX said about loud music. You could also ask them them to help out around the place, most would flee or you would get a free cleaning service. Either way, it's a win/win imo.

Been living alone for the longest time and don't usually have people over, but! 
When Baby Kaguya wanted to be left alone, they pretended to be really sick and people would usually leave. 

Don't really have that much time for gaming with life being as it is at the moment, but I'll add you nonetheless.  I'll play anything as long as everyone has a good time.
 

If they're like all caps READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLING THE GAME OR IT WON'T WORKKKKKKKK I'll read it
Or if install fails
Otherwise no

Well, I read them sometimes, when there is a good chance that I'll miss something if I just launch the app. Otherwise, I just skip them.

The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Pikmin 2, Luigi's Mansion, Medal Of Honor: Frontline, Harvest Moon, Rogue Leader, Timesplitters: Future Perfect
 
Man, that brings back some fond memories.

That just means we both have amazing tastes in video games, ain't nothing wrong with that.

I second the recommendations for Wind Waker and Twilight Princess.  They're both amazing Zelda games, and absolutely worth experiencing at least once.

Oooh, I'm back to my pink badge. Nostalgic, almost.
A tease for what's to come:
 
I jest. I'm only here to play the part of the janitor. Dealing with people is too hard. I'll leave that to someone else.

Confession: I'm a lonely weeb, but I don't like drinking or people so that's 99.9% my fault.  ANIME WILL NEVER DISAPPOINT ME.

If you still haven't done that, find someone who studies or recently graduated from that university and ask them about how things there are different from where you study right now. They also can point out possible drawbacks that are not widely known. The more information you have about that place, the lesser is the probability that you'll regret your decision. It may be a good idea to find people from there on different social media and ask around. Don't fully rely on what the official sources are saying, they are often not telling full truths to get more students.
Also, if you're planning to apply for a higher level degree after you graduate, then another possible way of action would be getting you current degree where you study right now and then transfer to that university. Though note that if the quality of education is much higher there, then it might be tricky.

A warm welcome to our three new additions to the staff team. They have been very active members of our community through the years, always jumping in and helping newcomers with their questions and to find their next VNs to read, as well as already having some experience being part of the fuwa staff, in the case of the notorious knight of Varela. Glad to have you on board, @Mr Poltroon, @Clephas and @Dergonu.
 
I'd also like to announce we have upgraded @Zenophilious to a global moderator, making it the first addition to our team since forever now. His nonstop work in moderating the forums with me these past few years have more than earned him the spot, and with this lineup, I'm sure we'll have no moderation problems for a long time to come.
