    Myself :komari: I'm still learning the poems and what not... it's hard lol. 

    Did you get the Hiragana Asobi Karuta set? I saw that one too late and I wasn't able to purchase it ://

    Haha! I'll be playing with myself too!

    Yes, that's the one. Are these different in some way? To be honest I don't really know much about Karuta, but since I'm learning Japanese I thought it might help.

    White Album 2 ~Introductory Chapter~ and ~Closing Chapter~ question?

    in Visual Novel Talk

    Posted

    I was contacted by one of the translators who stated that it's not being machine translated. Some guy completely stuffed the wiki translation page with his dodgy translation, someone took notice of this and made it known to Conjueror who spread it out on twitter. There's a bunch of other stuff but I was told to keep it confidential. @Rainey is the person you want to talk to about it.

    You could also ask on their forum: https://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/

    This would have to be the VN I most look forward to reading. BTW you can play the introductory chapter, but you'll only want more of it.. so beware.

    We have really really different taste, I would never do something like enter a webpage, arrange to meet people in another country and then hang out together with them, sorry but that's not something I like to do, not in my country and specially not in Japan 

    lol! That's not something I would usually ever do, especially not in my own country! You might meet some nice Japanese girls :makina: They like us gajin (kind of, well they find us interesting..).

    Well traveling is one of the things I love to do (specially on train and see different cities and places!) and knowing different places is one of the things I want to do on this trip, so if I "waste" a whole day doing that it's not a problem

    We're similar in this aspect :D I personally loved Kyoto, and it's quite close to Tokyo - few hours by shinkansen. You might see Mt. Fuji-san! Kyoto is a historical town, abundant in nature, a beautiful city.

    You mean if I stay 1 week I can't travel to other prefectures? Why? :s

    It's too short of a time to being looking for more things to do. I could spend weeks in Tokyo just visiting the stuff there.

    You could waste a day just traveling between prefectures (the shinkansen is very enjoyable but maybe not the best use of time). If you go for 2 weeks I'd recommend taking a shinkansen somewhere (but it'll cost ya).

    I also recommend going out of your comfort zone and checking out meetup.com. Find something you enjoy doing and meet up with others that have the same interest, great way to meet locals in a group setting and have fun.

     

    Edit: Original Ren did an excellent map on Akihabara if you like VNs:

    traveling by the end of the year not right now

    Then you should expect the cold! Even snow depending where you go.

    I do not care about special events, cultural things or festivals

    We are quite different in this case. I would say Wraithseeker was correct with mentioning Akihabara.

    How long is your stay? If it's only 1 week then stay in Tokyo, if 2, then you can visit another prefecture, etc..

    Hello everyone!

    Welcome.

    I prefer to use a walkthrough and pick my route before I start. I tend not to do the "bad endings" unless it contributes to the actual story. At first I just did my own choices, but this method screwed me up when I played through G-senjou no Maou. Though I do have fond memories of my very first route in my first ever VN, it was the neutral ending for Lilly in Katawa Shoujo - :komari:.

    Do you drink green tea?

    in Members' Lounge

    Posted

    I never really enjoyed green tea.. well not until I spent some time in Japan. Green tea was everywhere, so I didn't have much choice but to drink it. It definitely grows on you, to the point that I actually enjoyed it. I drank it plain, just powdered tea and boiling water. I think I'd like your method of adding honey.

    I don't drink it when I'm back at home though, it just doesn't feel the same - It could be because it's grown somewhere else, or maybe because it's the teabag version?

    I heard it can stain your teeth because of the tannin's, so be careful.

    Started to play this morning.

    Currently searching for the damn abba and eevee.

    The only problem i have is that sometime  it's hard to get good connection to actually play the game outside :rimu:

    I only have wifi on mine so consider yourself lucky

     

    impossibru. Upgrade man! I've never even caught a Pokemon inside my house.

    Fuwanovel Confessions

    in The Coliseum of Chatter

    Posted

    Not so much a confession: I realise now how much LOVE can hurt. Hardly anythings even happened yet.. but that could be the problem.

    I don't even want to touch VN's since they're all about relationships. I can't enjoy half the songs on radio anymore since they keep reminding me of things I'd rather forget.
