    Shiawase_Rina reacted to fujoneko in What are you playing?   
    Aw, cool to see more people here playing otome! Jack Jeanne is one that caught my eye for sure!!

    I myself am currently reading Umineko and Synesthesia. I'm keeping a daily log for Umineko, maybe I should share that one here! Great, I'll do just that! ... Starting tomorrow.
    Synesthesia is very interesting for sure, though the voice acting gave me a bit of whiplash because they are AI (synthetic voices, at least). I got used to them pretty quickly, and I guess it's a fine alternative for people who don't have the budget for it. There's always the option to mute it (and the games does tell you that at the beginning, which I found pretty nice).
    The art is fine and all, though there were two things that bothered me a little. Not to the point of annoyance, but I did notice. 1) The female characters are much more detailed than their male counterparts. That isn't exactly uncommon, of course, but it's to the point of looking at different artstyles (which might not be a stretch?) and 2) the girls are... way too detailed. Like, if I had clothes that wrinkly, I'd have to iron them! I'm just playing around, it isn't that bad, but as an artist who struggled with that at the beginning, it's something I take notice of hahaha

    Shiawase_Rina got a reaction from Dreamysyu in What are you playing?   
    JackJeanne

    JackJeanne is a special Otome Game written and illustrated by Tokyo Ghoul's Ishida Sui and it's everything I wanted it to be!
    My heart broke with the cancelation of Act-Age and A3! (English Version) so I had a mighty need of more theater fiction.
    Combine my desire for theater and otome games and anyone can see why JackJeanne had my entire focus despite drowning in games.
    I started with Suzu's Route and I took 1,5 weeks for it lol
    JackJeanne is just super long for an otome game (4-6 hours per route is what I'm used from Otomate). 
    I really enjoy the preparations for the plays, finding out what kind of story we get to see this time and who will play who. Everyone doing their best learning their character, thinking about their role in the play and feeling like you're not good enough.
    When it comes to the plays themself, I like the Fall Performance for the quality acting and the Winter Performance for the feelings it gave me the most.
    The Univeil Performance was quite something too tho! Especially since it will differ in every route. 
    I also enjoy when the "Girl protag pretends to be a boy" tropes come into play. Suzu catching feelings for his bro not knowing Kisa's a girl and the comedy that follows. It get's even funnier once he knows lol
    It's also funny how worried Kisa get's about hiding her gender when she absolutely has nothing to worry about. Rhodonite is femboy central and has boys much more feminine than she is!
    I can't wait to see how the other routes will go! I think I'm most curious about Neji and Kai. Neji for being a hot mess who really get's under everyone's skin.
    And Kai since I really sympathize with him. He's a good guy who deserves more than he usually get's. I want a happy end for him!
    I think I can already recommend JackJeanne to anyone who likes stories about making a play, stories about pretending to be a gender you're not and if you like femboys lol

    Shiawase_Rina reacted to littleshogun in Anime Expo (AX) 2023 Announcements   
    As much as I keep saying on how I pay attention less to otome VN, I say that it would be nice to see more big otome VN on PC. At least we have Taisho Alice and Bustafellow if we talk about big otome VN on PC, but obviously console (Read: Switch) still has more otome VN library, as if Idea Factory didn't want to expand it to the Windows like their usual RPG title (Neptunia franchise).
    Speaking of Idea Factory, they also announced two title, namely Bakarina Pirate (The first season of the anime, which adapted the first two volume of light novel is already conclusive enough, but at least it's gaining some success so good for the original author) and Sympathy Kiss. Both are for Switch, so no PC version from Idea Factory. Also in case someone want GL route for Bakarina game, unfortunately there's none of it.
    PS - I know there's Tsukihime Remake 1 announcement, but considering they didn't announce PC version (Only the initial Switch and additional PS4 version) let's just say that the announcement is very redundant, especially with the patch that translate it just released very recently.

    Turned out that Mangagamer did announce this at AX, so here's the opening video from them for the proof.
    PS - I know there's a tweet from them in regard of it, although thanks to Twitter's... less than savory policy I can only post the opening video for the proof.

    Super excited for the game! in the event that they choose to not make the port, we can turn to ryujinx/yuzu to play it (as long as your PC is good enough) but sailing the high seas will be necessary, unfortunately. might buy the physical copy to support the devs later on though

    Given the words highlighted in the latest MG survey report post, the English text and/or publishing will likely be partly handled by MangaGamer. (oh, I see there's already staff designated on the vndb page. They've definitely worked with MG before...)

    there might be hope for a PC release, who knows

    Shiawase_Rina reacted to littleshogun in Mangagamer 2023 licensing survey is up   
    Mangagamer released the result for the survey, and it's nice to see that two out of three suggestion from mine are in top 25 (Even though honestly speaking it's not say much). The most notable thing is that there's still WA2 and Fate on top 20, although it's not as prominent like in the past. Other than that, well the result is quite balanced (Between usual VN, BL, and otome).

    Shiawase_Rina got a reaction from Pallas_Raven in A switch port for Hana Awase with Japanese, Chinese and English subtitles was announced!   
    Description:
     
    Hana Awase was originally released for PC in 4 parts starting in 2012. The last part was first released in 2019.
    Along with the usual visual novel and adventure game gameplay it also features a Hanafuda battle system.
    The Switch port will be released sometime in 2023.
     
     
    I don't know much about the game but have heard some things about it. Like that it was jokingly called Yu-gi-oh the otome game lol
    I will definitely get it. Whether I'll get the physical edition will depend on if they release all 4 parts in one game or not. I would rather not import 4 separate games...
    God 2023 is loaded with English otome game releases!

    So the Dessert de Otomate 2023 was yesterday and here are the announcements.
    I borrowed the summaries from this Gematsu article. Especially for Hakuoki they probably contain more info than I could give.
     
    Radiant Tale: Fanfare fandisc announced

    Radiant Tale's description:
    Summary: A fan disc of the May 2022-released Radiant Tale. Delivering smiling faces to everyone once more.
    Radiant Tale was announced to be relased in English as well this year in Summer. If it sells well we could get this fandisc too in the future.
     
    Hakuoki Shinkai: Manyou no Shou fandisc and Hakuoki: Sweet School Life port for Switch announced

     
    Hakuoki Shinkai:
    Summary for the fandisc announcement: A fan disc containing a number of spin-off stories and illustrations not included in the main story, such as a recollection of the events of Hakuoki: Zuisouroku.
    Hakuoki SSL:
    Summary: A Switch port of the 2014-released Hakuoki: Sweet School Life. The setting shifts from the Bakumatsu period to a modern era school, where you can enjoy a cheerful and slightly heartrending love story.
    Hakuoku SSL also got a fantranslation patch for the PS Vita in 2021.
     
    Collar x Malice: deep cover 2-part movie information:

    The two movies will open on May 26 and June 23, respectively this year.
    The movies will cover an original story and introduced a new character called Mitsuru Sowa (CV:  Katsuyuki Konishi ) that will appear:

    They also announced that the protagonist Ichika Hoshino will be voiced by Kaede Hondo.
    Collar x Malice:
     
    I hope the original story will be interesting enough. I just hope they animate it properly, that Ichika is cute and that my favorite Shiraishi get's screentime.
     
    Cupid Parasite: Sweet & Spicy Darling fandisc updates:

    Cupid Parasite:
     
    Summary: A fan disc of the goddess / marriage hunting love comedy game Cupid Parasite. The story follows the good ending of the previous game. In addition to the hidden romanceable character Peter Flage (voiced by Nobuhiko Okamoto), Melenis Levin (voiced by Yuuto Uemura) the Fate Parasite appears as a newly romanceable character. Japanese band The Biscats will once again perform the opening and ending theme songs.
    Melenis Levin (new love interest):

     
    I sure wonder what kind of a mess Melenis will end up being? "Fate" doesn't tell me too much. What made him a Parasite?
     
    OP video and more revealed to Alice in the Country of Spades: Wonderful Black World:

     
    Summary: A sequel to the September 2021-released Alice in the Country of Spades: Wonderful White World. The opening movie and shop-specific bonuses have been newly revealed.

    A very unconventional series which most might know from all the manga adaptions this series spawned which got localised around the world (I have quite a few of them in German).
     
    Cast announced for 9 R.I.P.

    9 R.I.P.
    Summary: A slightly strange omnibus romance visual novel that unfolds in various “other worlds.”
    Announced cast:

    Minami CV: Okamoto Nobuhiko
    Seiya CV: Tachibana Shinnosuke
    Yukimaro CV: KENN
    Koharu CV: Azakami Yohei
     
    Very interested in this one. I remember it having to do with urban legends and I like my otome games a bit spooky.
    I don't know about the large number of love interests tho. Quality > Quantity for me.
     
    My9Swallows TOPSTARS LEAGUE:

    My9Swallows TOPSTARS LEAGUE:
    Summary: A new professional baseball league has been organized, and a team of newcomers who passed the Yakult team auditions is formed with the goal of making it the league championship.
    This is the story of the romance between the protagonist put in charge of the team, and the players on the team.
    The story summary, first characters, and stage portraits have been newly revealed.
     
    Well. This is quite something. Tfw you have to be a baseball star aiming to win the league championship AND be an idol.
    I do not know how that works but alright. Could be funny to watch honestly.
     
     
    There is also something about them recruiting for the newest Altergear (non-romance branch) title. I would be surprised tho if any of the titles from this branch end up as a success.
    I haven't heard anything good about the title that was already released. Doing romance-less joseimuke visual novels only works with good characters and story.

    Collar x Malice: deep cover 2-part movie information:

    The two movies will open on May 26 and June 23, respectively this year.
    The movies will cover an original story and introduced a new character called Mitsuru Sowa (CV:  Katsuyuki Konishi ) that will appear:

    They also announced that the protagonist Ichika Hoshino will be voiced by Kaede Hondo.
    Collar x Malice:
     
    I hope the original story will be interesting enough. I just hope they animate it properly, that Ichika is cute and that my favorite Shiraishi get's screentime.
     
    Cupid Parasite: Sweet & Spicy Darling fandisc updates:

    Cupid Parasite:
     
    Summary: A fan disc of the goddess / marriage hunting love comedy game Cupid Parasite. The story follows the good ending of the previous game. In addition to the hidden romanceable character Peter Flage (voiced by Nobuhiko Okamoto), Melenis Levin (voiced by Yuuto Uemura) the Fate Parasite appears as a newly romanceable character. Japanese band The Biscats will once again perform the opening and ending theme songs.
    Melenis Levin (new love interest):

     
    I sure wonder what kind of a mess Melenis will end up being? "Fate" doesn't tell me too much. What made him a Parasite?
     
    OP video and more revealed to Alice in the Country of Spades: Wonderful Black World:

     
    Summary: A sequel to the September 2021-released Alice in the Country of Spades: Wonderful White World. The opening movie and shop-specific bonuses have been newly revealed.
    Alice in the Country of Spades
    The good old Heart no Kuni no Alice series! The Anniversary edition of the first game in the series has an English fanpatch for PC.
    A very unconventional series which most might know from all the manga adaptions this series spawned which got localised around the world (I have quite a few of them in German).
     
    Cast announced for 9 R.I.P.

    9 R.I.P.
    Summary: A slightly strange omnibus romance visual novel that unfolds in various “other worlds.”
    Announced cast:
    Kureha CV: Toshiki Masuda
    Hibiki CV: Toki Shunichi
    Kouyou CV: Suzuki Ryota
    Sena: Kakihara Tetsuya
    Minami CV: Okamoto Nobuhiko
    Seiya CV: Tachibana Shinnosuke
    Yukimaro CV: KENN
    Koharu CV: Azakami Yohei
     
    Very interested in this one. I remember it having to do with urban legends and I like my otome games a bit spooky.
    I don't know about the large number of love interests tho. Quality > Quantity for me.
     
    My9Swallows TOPSTARS LEAGUE:

    My9Swallows TOPSTARS LEAGUE:
    Summary: A new professional baseball league has been organized, and a team of newcomers who passed the Yakult team auditions is formed with the goal of making it the league championship.
    This is the story of the romance between the protagonist put in charge of the team, and the players on the team.
    The story summary, first characters, and stage portraits have been newly revealed.
     
    Well. This is quite something. Tfw you have to be a baseball star aiming to win the league championship AND be an idol.
    I do not know how that works but alright. Could be funny to watch honestly.
     
     
    There is also something about them recruiting for the newest Altergear (non-romance branch) title. I would be surprised tho if any of the titles from this branch end up as a success.
    I haven't heard anything good about the title that was already released. Doing romance-less joseimuke visual novels only works with good characters and story.
    I guess we'll see...

    Visual Novel Intro
    Raine, a genius mechanic with a lust for adventure, thrives in the frontier of space accompanied only by her shipborne AI navigator. Well into her travels, she makes a critical error while piloting, jumping through an unstable wormhole and crash-landing on an unknown planet. There, she makes first contact with a young species of sentient beings that look a lot like humans with a hint of… goat? To return to her home, Raine must repair her ship before the wormhole closes. However, in this unfamiliar place, she makes a friend that forces her to question what she really wants.

    It is time again to make your wishes heard!
    I personally wished for Club Suicide, Hana Awase and Blackish House. I'm thankful for any otome or BL game they pick up tho!
    Good luck to everyone!
    (Also Mangagamer only picks up PC games. Otomate and Rejet games are hopeless choices here for otome games just as a heads up)

    Shiawase_Rina reacted to HataVNI in Which of these VNs are you interested in translations of...   
    Well, you are perfect here since you can simply try to find a reasonable translator here. Just make a thread in our section for recruitment and try to describe best what you need. We can at least make a post on twitter and other social media so you can try and find an actual translator to work with you. Otherwise you can just tell the SVN folks to make another awful MTL with their sugoi tool, but we would not want to advertise it here or post it in our blog for everyone to see. We have the modern times and people shouldn't settle for MTL projects anymore, we have many better opportunities now with all these translation companies that exist. Who knows, maybe Shiravune pops up with a Flyable Heart TL. Not the first time they surprise us.

    Shiawase_Rina got a reaction from Zakamutt in Brothers Conflict English fantranslation was released!   
    Team Asahina has released a complete fantranslation for the Vita otome game Brothers Conflict Precious Baby!
    In order to play this patch you will need a jailbreaked Vita.
    Brother Conflict was originally released on the PSP in two parts (Passion Pink and Brilliant Blue) each having different love interests.
    In 2016 Otomate then released the PS Vita port Precious Baby which combined both games into one.
