Majokoi aka Witch's Love Diary Release by Sekai Project [UPDATED]

Yeah the title should be as clear as day in that we finally have Majo Koi Nikki release after spent three years being translated, and this VN is also the first Niijima Yuu works (Summer Pockets, Hatsuyuki Sakura, Natsuyume Nagisa) to be fully translated. I'll add more detail later, but let me warn you first that the beginning would have a lot of sex scenes courtesy of a diary writer so you better prepare for that, and as usual just put the expectation at moderate so you wouldn't need to be disappointed when turned out it's not your taste. I know that some people like it very much, although I also know that some other people may not like this. Feel free to discuss about Majokoi here, and you can get it at Steam. Have fun.

Edit - I think I'll just directly add the main heroines here, and for Majokoi itself I would say that it'll be better to read it open mindedly seeing that the MC (Takumi) can come off as arrogant playboy which understandably could get on nerves for some of the readers.

1. Nanno Alice

Nanno Alice

Our sort of the MC of Majokoi here, although if Danganronpa V3 teach us here it would be that it's better not to expect the female MC to lead the whole story or just expect her as Decoy MC. That said, at least she still better compared to Kaede in that she didn't get killed at the prologue's end and become one of the heroine. Her setting is that she live alone in a closed barbershop, and that she find a mysterious diary which depict the activity of a playboy with the name Takumi. And somehow it's become Alice's job to find more part of the diary seeing that the diary is scattered. Alice's VA here is Kusuhara Yui, in that she voiced Tsumugi Sara from Trinoline, Toki Nozomi from Daitoshokan, Akahoshi Corona from Lamunation, Niimi Yuzuki from Ginharu, Narusawa Megu from Hoshiori, and Arihara Nanami from Riddle Joker.

2. Tokeizaka Rei

Tokeizaka Rei

A famous student who also in the same year as Alice (2nd year), and yet she already hold the most important job in the school in that she's the principal herself. As for the reason, apparently it's simply because she's the oldest one in her family lineage and that both of her grandfather and her parents are very busy. We didn't need to care on why the parents either didn't think to hire an adult helper or have one of them help Rei, but instead we need to care that her VA is Mizuhashi Kaori who voiced Kurokawa Kirara from Yumina, Matsushima Michiru from Grisaia franchise (I think Rei is almost resembled Michiru here), Kiba Mifuyu from Koichoco, Togakushi Touko from Sanoba Witch, Sawai Maya from Da Capo 2, Fushikawa Kokoro from Majikoi, Clea from Duel Savior, and Kimiyoshi Natsumi from Higurashi.

3. Tokeizaka Canon (Or Kanon, depend on which your preference here)

Tokeizaka Kanon

The younger twin of Tokeizaka family. As for Kanon (Yes I'll call her with 'K' here), unlike her sister she is more shy and tend to tell her analysis with some probability in percent. Her analysis ability here is really helping Rei a lot when Rei do her work as the principal, and so she's act as Rei's secretary here in that she also known as the second principal here. Her VA is Yuina, in which she voiced Akatsuki Arisa from Haretaka, Serikawa Eri from Suki Suki, Matoi Ayame from Uchi trilogy, Shizuki Hachiyo from Loca Love trilogy, Takayashiki Matsuri from Family Project 2013 version, and Endou Saya from Kisaragi Gold Star.

4. Kashiwabara Mii

Kashiwabara Mii

Alice's senpai in the photography club, although to Takumi she's more or less is a school newspaper club who interviewed him. When she was children, she dreamt of being an idol because to her idol is always shining before decided to give up on her dream because she's wearing glasses. Her VA is Inoue Nana in which she voiced Kitamikado Misako from Evangile (Yes that infamous headmistress share same VA as Mii here, and honestly it's too bad that Qoobrand didn't chose her as Rei's VA), Jinpou Ann from Saku Saku, Tenma Minase from Hole Breaker, Onabuta Ikuko from Nukitashi, Kuon Ayano from Hanasaki, and Minai Tomoe from Higurashi.

5. Suou Hijiri

Suou Hijiri

A young nun at the church in the forest who is also transfer in Takumi's class. As for a nun, let's just say that she's a bit too devoted to the God in that she even likened it to a man and that she like to preach other students for having a bad mouth and the only way to cure it is to praying to the God. Her VA is Samoto Fuuri in that she voiced Minahoshi Asuho from Hoshimemo, Wakaba Faure from Katahane, Ayase Kasumi from Dies Irae (No idea why she didn't reprise her role in the anime version), Nanase Ayumu from Natsuyume Nagisa, Estel Freesia from Yoake, Kozaki Aya from Hatsuyuki Sakura, Akihime Sumomo from Nanatsuiro Drops, and Itsukushima Takako from Otoboku.

6. Fujita Konron

Alice's classmate who mostly always absent. As for her character, she's the aloof one in that she rarely talk and when she speak she said something that was quite mysterious. There's more than met her eyes her when it come to her role, but obviously it'll be a major spoilerso let's just say that obviously you'll learn more about her. Her VA is Yamada Yuna in which she voiced Miyamura Yuuko from ef, Elica from eden, Amano Angeline Hotaru from Supipara, Jounouchi Makoto from Chrono Clock, Koizuka Mana from Amatsutsumi, and Amagi Sakuya from Otairo.

That's all for the main heroines of Majokoi here. As for the reason on why I said main heroines, it's because we also can play other routes for the side heroines (Those routes are quite short compared to the main heroines routes though). I know that Alice here is the MC, although from Takumi's perspective she's the one of the main heroine so it's still count here.

Which is one good reason to use the English title, given it's an English release and all... I'd take it as a personal favor, even if you love to snatch thread-starting opportunities, if you'd at least use the title we gave the game.

One thing thats annoying for tracking future releases through places like Fuwa or /r/Vns is people really like using the weeb nicknames for VNs that dont even sound close to the name the licensing company will release the VN as.

So I have to keep remembering Shitsuaru is going to be Choose Your Mistress.

I personally like to use both names at same time when referring to a VN or it's too annoying.

I agree, main problem is that people prefer to use shortened titles in forum discussions, like Majikoi, Majokoi, Subahibi, Ikikoi, Mahoyo etc while the english title is kinda long and shortening it isn't really doable.

There are ways to shorten it like "Love Diary" "Mistress", "Love Seriously", etc It's just a matter of people being less lazy and getting used to a new system for English.

I don't understand why guys boycotting Steam where there is the best regional prices I've ever seen...

Do you tell all your friends that you're watching hentai porn? Bet you're not, apart from maybe one or two.

Thats the answer.

So anyone played it? Any thoughts?

Seems like an interesting concept to get the females' PoV throughout the VN but how does this even work, like routes and stuff with the MC? Diary alters itself based on choices or sth?

played/read it for some hours

its not even female PoV its either Alice's PoV or the guy's PoV. or maybe im not that far.

a translator on discord says theres route but imo its only one route, the routes he/she/it mentions is a story that probably doesnt happen in real time.

i dont think the diary alters based on choices... but then again, i didnt get that far yet. take my post/comment with a grain of salt

It is indeed a story about stories, at a pretty fundamental level; the game talks about stories a lot. That said, Alice's route (which is sprinkled throughout the game) happens in the "present", in terms of the game, though it's most accurate to view it as taking place in 2014, the year the game released, for reasons.

In terms of who narrates, I think the game is about 30% narrated by Alice and 70% narrated by Takumi, which is mostly (but not entirely) diary entries, though once you get past the prologue you tend to forget you're in a diary entry while reading the routes with Takumi, because most of them are pretty long.

If this matters to you, Takumi narrates most of the H-scenes (all the ones not involving Alice), though the ones narrated by Alice were actually the best, IMO.
