Mr Poltroon

I've been hearing one should leave Karen for last, but I wouldn't know why.

The reason people like SNAFU is better conveyed by the second season... which has a completely different tone as a result. It is also why I don't like that second season. Also, shame on you for not liking the first season. It is hilarious!

You have a birthday, @Dergonu? I never would've thought! Let it be the best one under the current circumstances.

I'm, uh, actually having a harder time managing my academic responsibilities now than before. Working at home is an utter mess.

See, that's what I find odd. What is there to move on from? Why would I not read a new VN that came out today, if I like reading VNs in this genre? It has nothing to do with excitement or moving on, I think.

This is curious. Yes, certainly excitement can build up if things get announced as upcoming and such... But it's weird to think that a long length of time can make one uninterested in the actual release.

1-b) As c isn't really a subject and you like reading VNs, I'll go with this. 2-b) It has hotter guys, I think. 3-a) Everyone that does gacha is at least c. Now, if you don't do gacha at all, you'd be a. Between the two, I'll go with a, because I'm uninformed about gacha games. What BL ones are there? 4-a) Random assumption of the game playing ability of the average VN player. 5-b) Even if it's not, IT SHOULD BE. 6-b) Everybody likes this, and I don't like fish. 7-b) I only recognise this name. EDIT: Changed to b because I accidentally put a.

I'm afraid I do not know what could cause this. In theory, if you play all endings up till the end, you will see all CGs in the game, even if the in-game gallery is bugging out. EDIT: Rather than suspect bugs, the more obvious cause is that my walkthrough does not cover all in-game choices necessarily. Doing them may be necessary to unlock all CGs (though I haven't actually tested that):

:C

Look at him attracting old timers. Did the disinterest in VNs also mean the same for anime and manga?

I'm somewhat embarrassed I never got back to you and had to be reminded by this post, so apologies for that, but I'm really slow at playing to the extent that I never finished the path until the point where I got busy with University. So, just in case I really do not get around to finishing it, I really like a number of things!

Yes :'(((((

I was actually wondering if it might not be a fact that english speakers in war-afflicted countries are more likely to leave them?

Nice one! Dergonu brought it up before but I hadn't thought of it. I'll steal that.

I'm fairly sure there's some sort of conflict in our definitions of 'Otome'.

Here's 2019 in review: http://blog.mangagamer.org/2020/02/28/2019-in-review-licensing-survey/ And here's the licensing survey: Now, does anyone know about some adult Otome so I can recommend they localise it?

As I said.

I don't think anybody thinks Kanon 2002 is particularly bad, outside of some character designs. It's just that, by comparison, it probably doesn't offer much of anything. But since you'll be watching both, you can tell us what we're missing!

I see, thank you. I'm surprised to hear about Chuck, since its one of like 5 or so non-animated TV shows I've ever watched, so it's quite the coincidence to hear about it here of all places. Unfortunately, I do not recall it well enough to agree or disagree with the assessment. Toradora's also a really curious one because while I love the characters, I heavily dislike the plot (I don't think the attraction between the two leads was natural and find that others imposed their views on them in that matter. Especially in Ryuuji's case) and think that most events within were melodramatic, which I almost always dislike. (I was going to link a couple of threads with romance manga and anime to see if you like any of them but I've bugged you enough. Thanks.)

If I may ask, what is it you're looking for in romance stories and do you have examples of it done well even outside VNs?

I'll make a prediction here, so read once you've finished:

There's, uh, stuff going on in the background, sure, and some stuff might be mildly interesting as far as plot is concerned but, uh, why would anyone play Evenicle if they're not in it for the harem of wives?

I'd like to try out a path and leave some feedback. (Maybe record a playthrough? I could do that.) Is there any consensual path that's written out? If not, what do you feel is most complete right now? (Do I sound super arrogant in this post? That's not my intention I'm just being lazy but want to help if possible through feedback.)

I don't know how the quality of this particular VN is, since they don't bother promoting with English screenshots (not a stellar sign), but what you're saying is not what mitch said. It is one of the factors, not the entire benchmark.
