Visual Novel Translation Status (16/07/2023)

Since we have Aquarium (VN with VTuber Minato Aqua as the main heroine) English release announcement along with Tsui no Stella fan translation release, once again I make the parody for Tsui no Stella opening title (Breath of Stella) by changing 'Stella' with 'Cassiopeia' (The ending song for Aquarium, obviously sang by Minato Aqua), so we have 'Breath of Cassiopeia', which is still fitting seeing that Cassiopeia is the name of star constellation (The Wikipedia article) and Stella is the Latin word for star. Anyway welcome to this week VNTS Review, and compared to the last week this time it's definitely more lively, especially with the Tsui no Stella fan patch release. Other than that, we have some surprise update from a certain project. Overall, this week is more or less is an average one to a degree, and let's see what I can write in regard of it.

Entergram did plan to release Aquarium Steam version on October 26th later, and it also mentioned that it'll have English language support. At least Entergram here is starting to tried English market, although they obviously limit it to all age VN (Just like their former main company GIGA) with their first English product is VTuber VN. We also have yet another Obedient Women route released (Which mean the next route release would be the full release of it), with the story is focused on a sex crazed married woman Harukaze Akari who've been sexually frustrated because she didn't have sex for two years, at least until she met the MC who is her subordinate that she initially hate. Alicesoft released their another work, and said work is Hentai Labyrith with shota MC and monster girl heroines in a dungeon crawling RPG gameplay. Feel free to try if you're interested with it, although I can say that it's not as well received as the other Alicesoft VNs.

JAST Blue did mention that they almost finished the formatting work for Hell Academy, and after the formatting done then they'll move on to the programming. We also have some updates from Sekai, with we have Akaneiro is at halfway translated, Chiisana Kanojo is at 60% translated along with 30% edited, and currently they're waiting the engine for Gakkou no Seiiki which for the info has threesome. Speaking of threesome, as expected Shiravune announced the 2nd part of Succubus Session that has threesome sex like Uchikano no Koibito with the name Yuri & Marin’s Second Helping, and for now the info in regard of it is only available on Johren's store page of it, so no exact release date for now. By the way in regard of exact release date, Nekonyan announced they'll release Clover Day's on August 18th later, which mean the wait for Clover Day's for almost a decade since fan translation project of it established is almost over.

Last week we have a surprise release from Shinzou Translations, and this time they released another short VN called Mienai Nitousei which to say has some nice graphic. For other fan translation updates, we have ChuSingura is at 29.01% translated, 744 out of 2499 main scripts of Fate/Extra CCC are edited, and Akagoei 3 is at 36.14% translated. We also have sudden update from Loverable after more than a year with no update, in that we suddenly have more than halfway (50.42%) of the script are approved. Last but not the least, we have Tsui no Stella patch that was polished from the initial leak back in May, and yes it mean the Visual Arts release of it will become redundant (Although at least it'll be available on Steam). For the VN itself, once again the setting is quite grim with the emphasize on the white color, it's been written by Tanaka Romeo, and the MC Jude is asked to escort the robot girl Philia in her journey. Go get the patch if you chose to play Tsui no Stella as soon as possible, and have fun.

That's all for what I can write in regard of this week, and see you next week.
