  1. Well, first of all congratulations on successful Kickstarter for Root Double, even though it's kinda shaky at the middle. My comment is that for Sekai if next time you want to release the VN that has less exposure than this one, I would suggest that you better did the Thunderclap and better tier earlier (Although I understand that maybe this time Regista was kinda hesitate to allow Sekai at first, while back at Libra the decision to make the Kickstarter was started from the staff of Libra themselves iirc), since I'd read that many of the user feel here your move was kinda late. Anyway since this project was already funded, let's move on to discuss this game, and if you still want to discuss the Kickstarter, please go to this thread. For the release date, hopefully around March (Although if the release was got pushed, I'll make sure the thread will be not drowned). Anyway, from the title, it was obvious the credit should go to GundamAce or back in Gamefaqs forum ShadowBlackMage since he was as the leader of Lemnisca Translation did the translation. Once again, if some of Lemnisca member came here (Or especially GundamAce), thanks for translating this game and 2 previous games (I/O and Never7). For the premise, as we knew Root Double was dealing with 9 people (3 people from rescue squad and 6 civilian people) trapped in nuclear facility which about to explode within 9 hours. To make it worse, actually there was a drug that could prevent radiation, but unfortunately in best case scenario it was only enough for 6 people, leaving 3 people dead. By reading that, you knew that the chance of all people to survive were very slim. So of course they need to trying to search where they could escape within 9 hours. Oh, apparently this game maybe Takumi Nakazawa answer to 999 which was made by his fellow back at Infinity project, Kotarou Uchikoshi. I mean what's with 9 people and 9 hours (Oh and one more info, the drug I mentioned was only capable to prevent radiation for 1 hour. The drug supply was only 54 drugs, in other word only enough for 6 people like mentioned before). For trivia info, the drug name was Alone Desire. As the story goes, there was also some mysteries which accompany them to their escape. There were 6 mysteries, and the mysteries were: The captain rescue squad loss his memories Some of trapped civilian were high school students (Normally in VN it's not a mystery, since they like to involve high school XDDD. The question is more like why the high school students could come into nuclear facility) There was dead body inside facility The reason that the incident happened, and why they couldn't get out easily And last mystery was about the people who should not exist but exist at the nuclear facility There you go with the mystery. For more info, once again you could look to Kickstarter page, or Animesuki forum here. And once again thanks to GundamAce for the info translation back at Animesuki forum. As for the review, here's from Awesome Curry Chronicle (WARNING - Some MAJOR SPOILER there) and below's from GundamAce. For special service I'll post his review, from A route to his final review (The game was divided to 4 route - A, B, C, and D). He wrote the review in Animesuki and Gamefaqs back at 2012 (I was interested to Root Double since 2012 by the way). So, here's the review from GundamAce Route A Review (I'll use spoiler for shorter page, although guess it's already very long) Route B Review Route C Review Route D Review (Keep in mind this review was for normal version, because I'd heard that XTend version had Route D changed. Correct me if I'm wrong) Gundam Ace Final Review There you have it, although if some of you find it better than Ever17 or not later is depend on you I suppose. Oh finally, since GundamAce mentioned cast, guess for next I should do some commentary for the cast and character, like back in KoiChoco and Noble Works. One interesting thing about 9 characters was the system called Enneagram. It take too much time for explaining it, so I'll give Wikipedia link here. And for 999 games, actually there was also some info that Uchikoshi confirm that he design the character based on Enneagram. There was discussion about that at Gamefaqs, and here's the discussion (Watch out for spoiler though in case you didn't finish 999). For the cast, I'll give them based on Enneagram from 1 to 9, some info, and the seiyuu. But before tha, I'll give some info about 2 additional characters first. Since in GundamAce review that he mentioned Ai Shimizu character, guess I'll better mentioned Ai Shimzu first. In case you wonder who will Ai Shimizu voiced, here's the character. As for the character, I couldn't explain it since the info was nothing, and if you ask my opinion, she was not important at all. As for Ai Shimizu herself, her role was (By the way her pseudonym mostly had some connection with automotive brand) Sanjou Makoto in Noble Works, Komine Sachi in Grisaia franchise, Napoleon in Eiyuu Senki, Elina in Dracu Riot, and Tamaki Sakura in Hatsuyuki Sakura. As for Miyoko Tenkawa, she was Natsuhiko's mother, and she works at LABO and according to VNDB she rarely come home. So she like Hinata's father back in I/O, while we could said that Natsuhiko situation resemble Hinata's. For the seiyuu, she was voiced by Sayaka Ohara, and her role was Kela Hazel in Galaxy Angel trilogy, Dahlia in Duel Savior PS2 Version, Urotorii in Utawarerumono, and most famously in VN she was Beatrice back in Umineko. As promised earlier, here's the other characters info, starting from 1st Enneagram. Oh by the way all trapped people based on Enneagram. Ukita Keiji (1st Enneagram, The Reformer) - By the way, his enneagram and Loise enneagram was mistakenly written in kickstarter page as the Helper. According to the description, he was Natsuhiko neighborhood and work at LABO as one of the researcher. His voice was provided by Toru Okawa, and his role was Tomitake in Higurashi franchise, Arawn in Tears to Tiara, and Gasai Itsuki back in Comyu. Mashiro Toba (2nd Enneagram, The Helper) - According to description, she was one of our MC (Natsuhiko. Oh this VN had 2 MC by the way) childhood friend. Her biggest pride was cooking and take care of Natsuhiko. Back in TV Trope, GundamAce describe her position was like Sakuya back in I/O. Her voice was Asami Imai, and her role in VN was Makise Kurisu back in Steins Gate, Okitsu Ai in Yumina the Ethereal, Morishita Michiru in Koi Choco, and Yoshitsune in Eiyuu Senki. Ena Tsubakiyama (3rd Enneagram, The Achiever) - The teacher at Natsuhiko and Mashiro school. For hard word, she was kinda want to achieve something as the enneagram said, sometimes to obsessive to the goal I think. For easier word, especially to Remember11 veteran who read this, just thinking of Mayuzumi Lin when she trapped at LABO. As the seiyuu, the name was Toyoguchi Megumi and her role was like I said before Mayuzumi Lin in Remmeber11 and Junko Enoshima back at Dangan Ronpa. Louise Yui Sannomiya (4th Enneagram, The Individualist) - Half Japan and half French, and transfer student in Natsuhiko school. Nicknamed Salyu and she had ferret called Alice. For some reason, she was willing to live with Natsuhiko. For the seiyuu, Shindou Kei, no notable role in VN or anime, although some of user here may elaborate it. Oh GundamAce made a comment that Salyu design remind him of Feili from Chrome Shelled Regios. Watase Kasasagi (5th Enneagram, The Investigator) - One of our MC and the captain of rescue squad. At the beginning, he was lost his memory for unknown reason. But before memory loss, he was calm man and with dry sense of humor. His voice was Shingaki Tarusuke and his role in translated VN was none, although Fate/Zero fan may recognize him as Matou Kariya. Kazami Tachibana (6th Enneagram, The Loyalist) - Chilhood friend from Watase and vice captain of rescue squad. She was take the lead while Watase suffering memory loss. Her seiyuu was Rina Satou, and her role in VN was Souya Misaki in old VN Snow Sakura, Kusakabe Yuki in To Heart 2, Yoshitsune in Majikoi S, Nami from Aoi Shiro, and Ushiromiya Ange in Umineko franchise. Natsuhiko Tenkawa (7th Enneagram, The Enthusiast) - Another MC, and he was only high school students. He like to be alone, just like Hinata back in I/O. For a little commentary, at the beginning he was liveng in harem situations lol, with Mashiro came to his house every morning, Salyu living in his house, and another his childhood friend Yuuri also live in same house as his. For the seiyuu, the name was Ichiki Mitsuhiro and his role in anime (I didn't comment his performance in VN because he didn't had any role in translated VN yet) was very lame MC from old anime Magikano (By the way, I watched it back at 2007) Haruo Yoshikawa. Of course Natsuhiko was more handsome than Haruo lol (Even though both of them wear glasses). Jun Moribe (8th Enneagram, The Challenger) - Kazami junior in rescue squad, and her goal was that she want to become the heroes who protect the weak. That's why she choose to become rescue squad as first step. Her seiyuu was Tomonaga Akane, who in VN she was play as Inubushi Keiko and Suzukage Hotori back in Remember11, Seira in Chaos Head, Nagamine Nozomi in Seinarukana, Kawakami Kazuko aka Wanko in Majikoi, Soejima Hisoka in Comyu, Kazami Kazuki in Grisaia franchise, and Oda Nobunaga in Eiyuu Senki. Yuri Kotono (9th Enneagram, The Peacemaker) - Another Natsuhiko childhood friend, and live with him. According to the info back at Animesuki, she didn't like to go outside house, but for some reason she was trapped in LABO, while according to Natsuhiko she should be at home. I quite take a liking to her design back at 2012. Her seiyuu was Kaori Nazuka, and her role in VN was Flower MC Shirahane Suou. Oh if some of you like to watch Fate Ilya, she was play Miyu Edelfelt. I think that's all of the info from Root Double I could give it here. Although there's still more about world building info, but you could read it at Kickstarter or GundamAce info. Use this thread for future discussion of Root Double in near future. And sorry if I couldn't provide more info. Hope you like my post here. PS Almost forget, here's the OP Video for Root Double thanks to Sekai Project Edit - I'd just remember that one of VNDB user made a review for Root Double. So like GundamAce review, I'll copy the review here. Oh the user name was crauxan Crauxan Root Double Review - The review was made back at 2013
  2. https://vndb.org/v15485#main So I was looking for random VNs and stumbles upon this majesty. I swear to god this has the funniest prologue to a VN I have ever read. Which bring me to mention this sharp tongue girl. I won't show her godlike line at the prologue but I want to show these 2: listen for ~20secs Just the line she says: Problem is as you may have guessed.... It's all in moon runes. D: I have read about an hour into it but I'm getting lost bit by bit as it goes on. So.. is anyone translating this already ( haven't found any yet ) Also has anyone read this ? What are your thoughts? Also if you haven't read this and can somewhat understand moon runes I URGE YOU TO READ AT LEAST THE PROLOGUE. It is really the funniest opening to a VN .
  3. So a youtuber that I sometimes watch (The Animeman) uploaded a video talking about why visual novels have been getting more and more popular over these past few years, in the past there were nearly no vns on Steam or other online stores and such, so why is it that they've been experiencing such a boost in popularity?. This is the video in question: I watched it and thought about sharing it with everyone here on Fuwa to see what you think about it.
  4. I ask this question because everyone has their favorite villain. What in your view made a villain. I want your thoughts on 3 types of villains. 1) The Hero - A villain who is ruining everything for what they perceive as "the right thing," but in reality, fucks everything. Examples would be : Hero stops an army from finishing off X general and instead allows him to leave causing a 10 year rebellion. 2) The Fallen - A Hero (most of the time) that has a series of bad events lead them to do bad things (sometimes reluctantly.) Example would be: A sith that sucks at being a bad guy until they purge all their good tendencies. 3) The Evil Incarnate - These guys are evil for evil's sake but tend to either be boring monsters with no motivation OR masterminds with extreme motivation. Magneto would be an example of this. He is evil because we are not mutants and he wants to kill all non-mutants. I am sure some of my examples can be altered a bit but you get the jist of it. Let's start the dialogue!
  5. As we knew at April 18th Dangan Ronpa 2 was finally released on Steam, and we obviously should knew that this game was the sequel for Dangan Ronpa. For Dangan Ronpa, my first impression would be the game looks like a bit over the top with Ultimate student thing, but guess it's quite acceptable if the setting was also over the top here. The premise was actually a bit questionable with the students must kill each another to get out from the school that trapped them. The principal (Monokuma) was the one who trapped the students and establishing the strict rule. My attention was obviously to the seiyuu here though. In fact, even though Dangan Ronpa was only partially voiced (Maybe to save some memory and cost), the seiyuu was definitely not an amateur. In fact back in Dangan Ronpa 1, we got name like Megumi Ogata, Hisaka Youko, Sawashiro Miyuki, and many more. And more famous seiyuu had voicing the characters in Dangan Ronpa 2 by the way. I'll give the list to MAL link for each seiyuu later. For the premise here, actually it was sort of different for the beginning since the students was brought to tropical island by a rabbit called Monomi. She said that she bring them to field trip. And sometimes later Monokuma decided to join for fun and establishing a strict rule on the island. The rule was the same as back in Dangan Ronpa 1. Oh, actually Monokuma and Monomi was sort of artificial doll who could talk there. And from the moment Monokuma announce the strict rule, the vacation on tropical island was turned into slightly dangerous area, since with that rule some students obviously could be tempted to do the bad thing, killing his/her friend (Actually same thing also happened back in first game). Actually, this series had some sort of gameplay called class trial, which remind us of Phoenix Wright. And the reason for establishment was to find out the murder culprit each time murder occurred. Oh, I forgot to explain that if the murder occurred and the killer was unknown in the court, Monokuma will made the killer got Karma Houdini trope (Just google it since I kind of dislike the trope) and killed the rest of the student. While if the killer was found, he/she will be executed (And to be honest from the execution scene I saw on Youtube, the scene was so over the top that made me giggled instead of fear (Although the death was obviously horrifying)). And since MC in almost all of the mystery story should be not the killer, your job was to find out who's the culprit each time a trial occurred. I think that's all I could write for, and I'll add seiyuu info for each character later. Oh, and had fun to discuss the game here. And here's my advice, don't get to attached to any character because it could be your favorite character that would be died, either by execution or be killed (But if your favorite character was MC himself, you didn't need to worry and you may get attached to MC himself I supposed).
  6. Hey ppl, I've been sluggishly playing Noble*Works and while it's a nice eroge, I fear I can't do this anymore. The longest "nonchalant" (read: bog standard) eroge I've done is Period (8 routes), and by the end I was begging to be done once and for all. Noble*Works is entertaining if you like high school crap, and it keeps you reading, but in the end, it's hardly special. Supposedly in this type of game the H content is a treat for reading so far, but in this case the romance is a main focus. Here with a rare exception, H-scenes are boring standard. So, I wanted to ask, I've got Koichoco available for reading, but should I skip it? VNDB points out that the H content is just more vanilla crap. I hardly expect that the development has anything more going for it than the H and romance. Maybe I should just read dramatic romance stories with illness and so? Like Rin's in Period, I liked that. And if so do you know of any nice translated title in that regard?
  7. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2016-04-01/rewrite-anime-2nd-promo-additional-staff-unveiled/.100560 Sad because will have an originnal development, but will have some parts from the VN too, so i have expected this, because the game routes are too individual and too much larger for an anime. The good point: The Romeo Tanaka ( Rewrite creator) will create this originnal development so... atleast will be an logic history for rewrite. The bad: This is probably an signnal for a 12 episodes anime, atleast in imagination, but if i give a try will be an slipt cour. Edit: well i have forgot to say, this caracther design its too moe i think...well its only my opinnion.
  8. New West Games has offered up its second visual novel, Impulse!, following a band making its way into the cut-throat world of the Seattle music scene. You can read the review from the link below. Impulse!-ive Review Questions, threats, telling me I'm a dork for my lame nicknames can all be directed here. Special thanks to Flutterz for soldiering through the long review.
  9. So yeah, this was the VN I had finished last when @solidbatmanwas looking for more reviewers. It's more polished. Review is up! Feel free to discuss, ask questions, pour on me. Etc. Just remember who's watching your every move, though. Overall, great translation of a piece that does do the best of what you typically expect from the genre.
  10. Hi, I am currently working on an English Visual Novel called Lost Winter Nights which has a very fast paced writing and I was wondering how the public would react to when our demo comes out. I am not a very big fan of Japanese Visual Novels because of very slow paced stories which tire me a lot since I am not a native english speaker. I am a student here in France to become a professional screenwriter and I have been noticing that stories can be told very shortly, simply but still be very interesting and fun especially with great art backing them up. As the leader for the project, I was worried for quite some time that this type of writing may not be well appreciated by the community but I started to like it myself, as it feels actually more like a theatre play with dialogues for the most part. I have to admit that voice acting is a must for that kind of writing though, which is something we totally plan to have. What do you guys people think of that kind of writing ? I could potentially show some samples from our writer to illustrate my words. Looking forward to hearing your opinions on that matter
  11. So let’s discuss what a Majikoi X dbz crossover AU would be like with Goku as the main character. How could he fit in being born in the Majikoi universe? Would he be related to anyone? Like Momoyo? How strong would he be by the time he’s 17? Would he be the strongest in the series? Who would his girlfriend end up being? (I’m thinking about writing a fanfiction)
  12. The title once again says it all. The first VN that I'll open the thread for discussion this year was this VN. In Mangagamer Staff Blog, they announced it'll be released on February 12th, so guess I'd open the thread 28 days too early lol. Anyway, the premise was like one loner girl names Yuna who always timid and alone was approaching by 2 ghosts. One of them was the student from before World War 2 and another was from around the same year as Higurashi - 1980's. Both ghosts was girl by the way, and they asked Yuna for create more yuri couple at the school, which was all girl school by the way. For the game format, since it was Liarsoft I think it'll something like Yuri Couple of the Week although I couldn't say much about this yet. The graphic to be honest not very good compared to Gakthun, but maybe this kind of graphic will be acceptable for this kind of VN. As for the review, I couldn't find any review that review this game fully, although from VNDB, it'll be around 7 I think. For the seiyuu, according to VNDB, they will be each voiced 2 character in this VN, except for MC seiyuu. The recognizeable name are Kusayanagi Junko, Oukawa Mio, Rita (Also the OP singer), and Kaneda Mahiru. While the rest was got less recognizeable role in VNs. And for the MC (Yuna), the voice was Kawashima Rino, who as I commented she was almost anywhere in any VN. As for Kawashima role, she was Haru in G-Senjou, Characters in translated Steampunk (Kia in Inganock, Mary in Sharnoth, and Emilie in Gakthun), Serawi in Kamidori, Nagisa in Koi Suru Natsu no Last Resort, and Yukari in Kara no Shoujo. For untranslated one she was Subaru in Beat Blade Haruka, Yuki in Subahibi, Narumi in Soukoku no Arterial, Alphimia in Madou Koukaku, and many more. Oh she also voiced Katahane MC (Male one), Cero. I think this VN for now was lack of review, although that didn't mean you should ignore this VN. I think this VN will be good for yuri fan. Oh about Steam release, I think since Liarsoft title almost always managed to not show explicit sexual content (Maybe) so far, I think this game is able to slip into Steam reasonable. Use this thread as discussion for this game, although it was 28 days too early lol.
  13. I loved the Majikoi series and A-5 is coming out soon (4/26). So what will happen after A-5,I would love a sequel to S or maybe a few more in the "A" series, there are still some girls that haven't got a route yet or maybe some after stories for A games. But as of now i can't find any info on it. So i was wondering if you guys have heard or seen anything related to it. Majikoi is Minatosoft's most popular game so i hope somewhere somehow we get a little more majikoi
  14. So I bought the new game Atom Grrrl!! from denpasoft today, and I noticed something a little interesting. They have added a download limit to their games. It has not been a thing previously, as all my other games like Grisaia, Zodiac, sunrider etc doesn't have it. It could just be for this particular game, though it might also be a permanent thing for their new releases. My guess would be that this too is a response to some of the fraudulent activity VN publishers has seen recently, possibly wanting to reduce piracy / illegal sharing of their game. It's still DRM free, so it's not like it will have a huge impact on anything, but it is still interesting to see. EDIT: Word from DavidB on the download limit:
  15. Looks like this year Christmas mean aggressive release of Visual Novel Translation, Gakthun and Noble Works. Since Decay already opened a discussion for Gakthun (Actually I also want to open Gakthun discussion, but after reconsidering it, better not), so I'll take my part to open Noble Works discussion. If some of you already saw my KoiChoco discussion, you surely know what my post format would be. Anyway, Noble Works premise to be honest was quite standard. I mean how many VN that have story our poor MC joined as elite high school students (Although this time he work as double for another student who had same face as MC) ? For translated one, we had Evangile and Otoboku iirc. For anyone who played and well versed in Japan, could you fill me the VN list with same premise? For the review, there is only one review from Aedes, and he said that this work was quite average. Here's the review. Although he said that the game is mediocre, but taste for each people of course different, so don't get discourage to try Noble Works, okay? The main draw of Noble Work to me was the seiyuu to be honest, especially for the heroine. Well as usual, I'll list the heroine, the role in VN, and which VN that had their work (Translated one and what VN I've know). 1. Kanemoto Akari - Your double older sister, and the daughter of Kanemoto conglomerate, which in game was one of the conglomerate who had major influence for the nation. Quite shy and apparently the maid teach her sex education using doujinshi, also she saw yaoi lol. The voice was provided by Manaka Umi, real name Sakurai Harumi. In translated VN, she mostly voiced sub character though. Her voice was Oone Kyouko from Sharin no Kuni, Rosetta from Romanesque, Sakaue Youko from Yumina the Ethereal, and Itagaki Ami from Majikoi. Oh, she was also voiced Tokido Saya in Little Busters EX, Takamori Haruka in Beat Blade Haruka, and Lily from Himegari. 2. Kunihiro Hinata - Our MC kouhai or younger schoolmate (Just in case some of you here new to VN or anime in general). Quite rich, but not as rich as Akari or Shizuru I think. Also apparently you could play billiard in her chest XDD (Hey, it's from translated scene, okay) She was voiced by Sasa Tsuyuka. Her real name was Nabatame Hitomi. As we know, Nabatame also quite famous seiyuu in the anime, although that didn't mean she have not much role in Visual Novel of course. Anyway, her role in VN was Shirakawa Nanaka in Da Capo 2, Nanashi in Duel Savior (In PS2 and we could hear her voice if we used PS2 Voice in Duel Savior patch), Tonami Yuma in To Heart 2, Aoi Sena in Chaos Head, Bazett Fraga McRemitz from Fate/Hollow Ataraxia PSV and Stacy Connor in Majikoi. Also Minazuki Sora in Baldr Sky duology. 3. Masamune Shizuru - One of students at MC new school, also granddaughter of Kanemoto conglomerate rival CEO. Very bad at shogi, and MC teach her how to play shogi. The voice was Natsunoo Koori, real name Taguchi Hiroko. She was one of well known eroge seiyuu because she was voiced Sumika (At least back in eroge games forum I've always heard that someone said that .... voiced by Sumika or something like that) and she had quite many role in translated VN as heroine. Her role was Kagami Sumika in Muv Luv franchise, Suou Amane in Grisaia franchise, Miyamura Miyako in ef, Hinata Natsumi in Sharin no Kuni, Crayanne in Kamidori, Kohaku in Shinigami no Kiss, and Kitsuki Riho in recently translated Koi Suru Natsu Last Resort. For untranslated VN, she was voiced Kasugano Sora in Yosuga no Sora and Yarai Miu in Dracu Riot. 4. Nagamitsu Maya - Your classmate and daughter of Yakuza, although she hate the corruption in the world and she loves filming that matter (Ironic since the yakuza I've known usually dealing with backhand politician thing or something like that). Quite skilled at martial artist. The voice was Aoba Ringo, known to fans as Ringorin. From the list in VNDB, she had the most credit for her singing in VN OP, but among heroine seiyuu for now she had the least credit for translated VN. Her role was Qoo Little-Little in My Girlfriend is the President, Sakurai Kanade in Deardrops, and Manaka Nemu in recently translated infamous euphoria. Oh my opinion for euphoria that the OP once again is very good with her singing, but the content looks like too extreme. Well, to each of their own. For untranslated one, she was voiced Shiina Sayane in Soukoku no Arterial and Shihodou Narika in Beat Blade Haruka. 5. Tsukiyama Sena - Kanemoto's family maid, and her wish was becoming Kanemoto's head family. Apparently she also students and attend the school with Akari and MC. Also last translated route. So we've had maid as heroine. Anyway, her voice was provided by Gogyou Nazuna and her real name was Ryouko Ono. Her role was Kusagawa Sasara in To Heart 2, Belle in Katahane, Kitajima Kaede in Sono Hanabira series, Amamiya Shizuku in Shinigami no Kiss, Melodiana in Kamidori and Mochizuki Amane in If My Heart Had Wing (Which infamously had the H-Scenes ripped for international release). Also she was voiced Migiwa Kazuha in Yosuga no Sora and Liselle L'ourson in Madou Koukaku. One more info. I've read in Aedes review that the game extra had instrumental version of heroine character song. So I've assume looks like Yuzusoft had some quite high production value for have the seiyuu for the heroine singing the character song. If you want to hear character image song, I'll give you the link for each Character Song, and the singer once again obviously the seiyuu for the character. 1. Kanemoto Akari 2. Kunihiro Hinata 3. Masamune Shizuru - Don't get fooled by Sena picture, okay. 4. Nagamitsu Maya - Same warning as with Shizuru Image Song. 5. Tsukiyama Sena I think that's all for the info that I could use to started Noble Works discussion. Well use this thread as discussion, okay. And let's find out who's your best girl in Noble Works. PS Almost forgot, thanks to fiddle and keisuke-kun (Sorry if I'm wrong) for translating this game. Edit (February 22nd) - Sorry for very extremely late, but our @Clephas also write his impression of this game back at VNDB. Here's the review in case you curious. Edit 2 - Since Christmas was already past 2 months, and easter will be around in 1 month anyway, guess I'll remove the Christmas part. Edit 3 - I'd forgot to said that this is the first Yuzusoft VN that finally got the translation, while in the past I was kinda hopeless that VN from Yuzusoft and August will got fully translated (And I rant that at erogegames forum). But, apparently fiddle and keisuke-kun prove me wrong by released the complete translation of Noble Works. So, thanks again to those two, for translating this VN from Yuzusoft.
  16. Since people who order, I think I'll join in the middle. I have a clear fetish as everyone here has (no use trying to hide ) And he would exhibitionism or nudism, has some VN that has this content, need not be the main focus. help XD
  17. Protagonists. You see the story through their eyes and experience what they're experiencing. Some protagonists are very notable for certain things that make them stand out like Kazami Yuuji. But sometimes, protagonists can be really generic and sometimes even downright awful. This thread is to post who your least favorite protagonist is. My personal least favorite is Nishijou Takumi from Chaos;Head. I get the point of his character is supposed to be a pathetic human being, but having him as the protagonist was one of the reasons I don't like Chaos;Head that much. He got on my nerves a lot during the playthrough. Every time I found a pretty good moment, he was there to ruin it. Everything about him made me want to knock him out. Now before I go on a rant on why I don't like Chaos;Head and think it's overrated, I will ask you now. What is/are your least favorite protagonist/protagonists? Now, let the flow through this thread
  18. Hello, everyone. As a recent addition to the VN community I'm starting to notice a few common trends in core VN readers. One of them is that original english language visual novels (OELVNs) are, simply put, not very popular. It's usually pretty subtle, not in a way like "Eewww, OELVN", but rather in a way that many OELVNs get forgotten or missed by the community completely. From what I've noticed, 90% of discussion is either discussion of original japanese titles or their translations, while indie west VNs often go way below the radar. I would like to go deeper to understand this trend. I can see a few possible explainations behind this. 1) OELVNs are just pretty bad? Needless to say, there are much fewer serious VN developers in the west compared to Japan, where the genre was born and continues to thrive to this day. Because of this, most OELVNs are produced by indies of various size and budget, many of them lacking the quality in both art, story and writing. So far, there are probably no universally acclaimed OELVNs except Katawa Shoujo. Some other notable, but not too popular in the VN community examples include novels by Christine Love and perhaps Cinders by MoeCube. Oh, and the beautiful Hanako Games (LLtQ, Black Closet), if you consider them VNs. And that's about it. 2) OELVNs are just too different? Just as there's a sizable cultural gap between the West and the East, OELVNs try to take a different approach in their stories, content and art. Some of the things I think the western developers often do differently: -Much less focus on erotic and controversial content, since west traditionally has very strong taboos on sexuality and mature themes -Non-anime art style (sometimes) -Less genre (anime\otaku\moe) tropes -Political correctness and other modern western tropes -More interactivity (more choices, mini-games, stat raising, genre-mixing) Now, for some player those changes might be unwelcome and lower their interest in the game. Which of those, I wonder? So what do you think? -How often do you play OELVNs and which are your favourite ones? -Why do you prefer the Japanese VNs? -What about OELVNs makes you less interested in playing them? -Or am I completely wrong and everyone loves them? This thread is meant not to make some personal point, but as a place to discuss this possible issue. I very well know nobody (probably) really hates OELVNs, it's more about understanding better what the core VN fans think about non-japanese visual novels and what turns them on/off. Believe me, there are lots of english VN developers right now eager to make something you will buy and enjoy. Now, what advice would you give them as a Visual Novel lover?
  19. Just what it says on the tin Today's subject is, you guessed it, character designs. Now do note that the character itself doesn't matter at all, only the desings. Now onto the actual program. I'm sure all of you have seen that "one" character design that sticks out like a sore thumb, but in a good way. Be it the color palette, unique clothing, or mixture of different things, there's always that something in that character thant sticks out. That's what we're here to talk about today. Me? For me it has to be Myra from Sepia tears. Her overall purple theme is brilliant, and my obsession with purple and white doesn't hurt at all. Her striped suit, long elegant white scarf and her red hibbon all make a beautiful completion. Her light purple hair, deep eyes and the shaping of her head are all as good as it gets. I've still yet to see a character better designed than her. Well, enough of me, how about you? What are your favorite character desing, and why?

  21. MG blog post: http://blog.mangagamer.org/2016/02/15/pay-processor-issues/ tl;dr Because of people making fraudulent purchases in order to obtain Steam Keys and re-sell them, MangaGamer has been forced to remove their Steam Key offers for the foreseeable future until a better solution comes. It really sucks that people pull this kind of shit off. On top of that, because of the currently existing chargeback policies, whoever is returning the money is always on the losing end no matter what they do. I totally understand and agree with MG's move here and I even sympathize with them, but it's still sad I won't be able to get a Steam key to give to a friend (or giveaway) whenever I buy a game from them anymore. Really hope this helps mitigate the damage for them though.
  22. Source So apparently SP is licencing Hoshizora no Memoria, Sakura Dungeon and KARAKARA. Honestly this news is something else, not really good or bad. Sakura Dungeon is what you'd except, another Sakura title full of fanservice. Apparently it is a collab attempt by Mangagamer and SP. KARAKARA seems to show promise, but it is yet another Kickstarter-esque endeavor, so it needs to be watched carefully. Then HoshiMemo. Oh boy is this redundant. Obviously this one is rather needless one, but the original translation was what it was, and some heavy editing is needed, so this isn't totally worthless, and maybe good in some respect, as I do love the title to death. But what ticks me off is that SP didn't start with something of more importance, like Eternal Heart or Irotoridori no Sekai. But there's still hope, as SP has shown interest in Favorite's titles, the Eternal Heart and IroSekai. But all in all, even if Sekai didn't have over 50 open projects already, this seems rather redundant. However, maybe we will see something that actually matters from SP. Who knows.
  23. First of all, remember that I am new here haha The question I have to do is about the recruitment system ... to begin recruiting for X project, you need to already have a translator on the team before recruiting or can be recruited without the translator? On the other hand. You who say of Arterial of origins? it's good or bad? It looks good and I was a bit surprised to see that no one has had an eye to pass to English.
  24. I once played this kinetic novel and didn't remember the title of it. I've been looking for it for a while now..... It's about this man that moves to a certain strange town in winter, it involves powers (to erase memories) and the most powerful people are called "alpha". The man is tasked with looking after this girl so they end up living together. It has multiple parts to it and the POV switches from the man to the girl and vice versa. In the end, I really want to find this kinetic novel again, so if anyone has any clues, I'd be very grateful!
  25. As you have seen from my other thread, I wished to push the boundaries of Visual Novels specifically to get new people that have never touched a VN their entire lives into the genre. The group I am targeting is Comic/Graphic Novel readers in america. Especially those of minority backgrounds. The question though, is does this art style ALONE alienate veteran readers of Visual Novels? Here are two videos. The purpose of this test was to judge the voice over work. Special effects, animations, and optimized UI is expected over the next 2 weeks. Amesemi (Ami-semee) Pantheon: Kushite Age: 18 Height: 5’4” Fighting Style: Elemental Magic Alignment: True Good FANTASY Amesemi is the only female raised by Nun. She had a rare affinity for what we would understand to be magic and because of this, Nun took her as her personal apprentice. Mastering the arts of energy manipulation, she quickly discovered her ability to manipulate the elements to both devastating and beneficial effects. On top of her amazing ability to understand “magic,” she also has a superior grasp on ancient texts and lore. Of all the others, she is the most knowledgeable about the ancient bloodlines. HISTORY Amesemi is of the Kushite pantheon as a protector goddess and has close ties to Apedemak. Little is known about her role in tradition but she was worshipped for her ability to help Apedemak’s control his warrior spirit. Amesemi’s history was lost in time but there are many influences of her origin in many female Kemetic goddesses. THEORY With plenty of room to create our own origin, we decided to make her the guardian of knowledge and wielder of the rarest of arts. Apedemak is infatuated with her and Ra looks at her with suspicion. Amesemi is a strong woman wiser than all the men in the series but her confidence is limited and she looks to the men for guidance in times of danger. Who will win the heart of Amesemi?
