Kara no Shoujo 2nd Episode (Purgatory Chapter) Discussion

[littleshogun]

Kara no Shoujo 2 will be released in 6 days, so I figured I should try to start the discussion here, just like back at VNDB. About the game, Kara no Shoujo 2 is part of trilogy(For now) that was began from Cartagra. Mind if I suggest if someone want to discuss Cartagra and Kara no Shoujo we shall use term 'Kara no Shoujo trilogy'? Because MC in Cartagra play quite significant role in Kara no Shoujo iirc. The trilogy itself is quite infamous for murder and gore stuff, and for bad endings. For the story, our MC Reiji is trying to find out you-know-who from the first game, which iirc is involved in some accident and disappear. While in this game, we also had 2nd MC, Masaki whose past will be major point in this game(From the review I read).

For the more info, you could search VNDB as usual, and read the review here, although all of them had spoiler. here's the link to each review:

As the seiyuu, it has too much, so I couldn't cover for it, other than Oukawa Mio(Eris in SonoHana), Yoshikawa Kana(Ayaka in Evangile, Antoniette in Yume Miru Kusuri), Isshiki Hikaru played Side Character. Unlike previous game, this time our MC is voiced(Not that I'm against it, as long as he is cool enough, unlike Succubuss Soon MC and Reiji's voice quite deep and at least he didn't voice narration too, unlike once again Succubuss Soon), and the voice is none other than Suwabe Junichi according to VNDB. Although Mangagamer Staff Blog funnily enough said that Takahashi Ganaranai is quite unknown seiyuu, although he said that he heard his voice somewhere else(It must be when staff hearingArcher voice, and Takahashi is one of Suwabe alias). Another point is that for Main Character(According to VNDB), almost all of seiyuu is had not much role in other VN, except for one name, whose voiced Yukari, Reiji younger sister. The seiyuu of Reiji younger sister is none other than Kawashima Rino, which had HUGE list of role in Visual Novel world. According to VNDB, she had many roles in Eushully VN(Oktavia from Himegari, Serawi from Kamidori, Narumi from Soukoku, Alphimia from Madou Koukaku) and Liar-Soft VN(Mary from Sharnoth, Kia from Inganock, Yuna from Kindred Spirit). Her roles outside those 2 companies are Haru from G-Senjou, Margit in Majikoi, Yuuki from Subahibi, Asako from Grisaia Trilogy, and at recently translated VN Koinatsu as Kariu Nagisa.

Last but not least. let's watch the Opening Video from Kara no Shoujo 2, with song that was sung by Haruka Shimotsuki. Here's the link to the video.

And I already played the demo by the way. RIP Kamizono Mayu for got killed brutally, and looks like we'll have twisted murderer again, just like in past 2 games. Well, using this thread as discussion for Kara no Shoujo 2, okay? Don't get fooled by the discussion title.
