So I had this dream nightmare where I did a 50 gem draw and all I got were Eris and then they suddenly popped out of the screen and hovered around me saying "Horosho" over and over again, no matter where I ran they followed me. It was not a fun night.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE! You can't say no to such a cute Witch Airi when she's asking you for sweets dressed like that...

People do this often with books, so why not? A lot of people lack the motivation to read VNs, or don't have someone to talk to once they finish a fine work. I was thinking of making a "VN reading club" of sorts, where every month we decide on a VN, read it and do several activities related to it, from just random chatter to more organized things, such as rewriting a character of a VN in the universe of another, make guessing games, extend the ending of a VN with what we think would happen next, write reviews, etc. If this actually happens, I could even give make the activities competitions and give some prizes for the winners every month. Oh, taking part in the activities wouldn't be mandatory. I realize a lot of people are busy, and you can skip a month if you feel like it. The important part is motivating everyone to pick up a VN monthly~ So? Do you think it's a good idea? And if so, would you like to join? ~~ VN Club History: November: Ayakashibito December: Forest February: Shikkoku no Sharnoth

How about the Kyonyuu Fantasy saga? The mc is a pervert but a funny one, a tactician and doesn't give a single f*ck in the 3 vn of the saga.

Whew, I thought I was the only one who spent a crapload on Love Gems, I just checked my Purchase History and I spent more than $850 on Love Gems.................well thankfully I have a part-time job but damn, I didn't realise I spent so much.

Awesome. Thanks.

Lilly's my favorite by far, if only I knew someone as elegant and freaky as her O.o plus her route affected me much more than the others

My first draw in JP

Hellsing Ultimate is the best show to show to young to middle aged people. It has a brilliant dub, so they won't be sitting there unable to take it seriously because of Japanese. It has a unique, not-very-anime artstyle that doesn't seem to be any particular nationality. It's bloody and quite dark, so they won't underestimate it as some weird Japanese light-hearted crap. And finally, it has Alucard. Need I say more? Cowboy Beboop is old and, while probably very good, wouldn't be able to really catch a newbie who isn't into anime's attention Baccano is downright bad as a gateway anime because it's so damn confusing. Steins;Gate is very anime, so the newbie's prejudice come into play and makes it hard for them to get into it. Gurren Lagann is good, but still not perfect. Can't judge Psycho Pass since I've never seen anything about it. I would imagine that it'll still suffer from prejudice, though. (I've seen bits and pieces of Beboop, btw.) Spice and Wolf is too... boring. Nothing really happens and it's a character driven show. Not very exciting, and thus wouldn't be able to grip a newbie very well. Toradora is a highs school romance. Worst possible kind of choice. Monster is only good if the newbie is a hardcore crime fan. Shiki could be good, but very slow start. Monogatari suffers from the same problem as Toradora. Nah, I'm still the senpai.

It is true the title of the topic certainly attracted me, but I cannot see how you'd think I'd welcome this particular member when I hardly ever do so to any other. You're right though. Welcome to the forums. I hope you have a spiffing stay here with us. You've played Air and it has become one of your favourites? Great. I'll ask you a question, then: How... er... Key-like (read: manly tears inducing) is it? Does it have a good ending in the end? If at all possible, answer those two questions and solely those two questions. As for my parting gift, have an image:

Just did my first 10+1 draw on the JP version and this is what I got: Is this the part where I'm supposed to wake up?

Having high English standards in this community is just asking to lead a sad, sad, life.

before the sad accident happened i was happy celebrating for getting a new SR.. sadly i didnt last long ~_~

It's over here but one last send off: Most interesting thing this year, kids are now using backpacks to collect candy. It actually kinda makes sense if you think about it.

Oh, I see xD Well, I hate a lot but I'm a nice person -_- That's what my mom said B)

So, I resumed playing RuiTomo, reading Atori's route, when-- Akaneko "In Soviet Russia, cats pet Akaneko!" I don't even... I, uh... I really wasn't expecting to see this in a Japanese VN, of all things.

>HyMeN says that he doesn't like traps. >Wants a guy to make a girly voice for him to say that he loves him. Seems legit.

Great, now i won't even be able to sleep.

Welcome to the forums! As is standard for people who mention KS, I must ask: who's your favorite heroine?

Welcome to the best forum for visual novel lover have fun.

Welcome to the party! If you like mecha, have you read muvluv?

Look at my 10+1 at the top of the page and replace Nozomi's face with Eli and imagine that as your draw.

I will. I also might write up a review when I'm done with it. Initial prognosis (I've only played an hour) is that SOTW is fun in the same way JRPGs were before they started taking themselves so seriously (and before Square became obsessed with interactive moviemaking.) Has a few technical issues but nothing too serious. I highly recommend giving the free demos a go if you're undecided. The games are fairly consistent, in that if you like the demo you'll probably like the game and vice versa.

But if you give hymen love it might break him

I'd be interested in seeing the food culture there. Say... a tour of every Domino's pizza in Japan? For real though, that first suggestion is actually serious.

Can you film yourself teaching? I wonder how real Japanese classrooms look like, after watching all those animes and VNs...

This discussion makes me think of this:

Pizza delivery coming through

The system is actually simpler than it looks though the English vocabulary they used is a little annoying. But honestly you learn it in a day, it's nothing big. Let me try to explain. Think of the girls as cards. That's what they are really. There are 4 levels of cards. Normal (N) Rare ( R) Super Rare (SR) Ultra Rare (UR) Obviously the higher the rarity the bigger bonus they give you like abilities to boost your scores in lives, etc. They also usually tend to have cuter art. These are regarding the u's members. Now you'll notice there's more random girls here and there. Think of them as canon fodder (i do). Their skills are usually low and they don't have special abilities. Their best purpose is to be sacrificed to level up your rarer cards. They are earned all the time through lives and scouting so only focus on leveling them up when you've leveled up the rest. Of course as the name implies rare cards are hard to get and don't even get me started on how hard it is to get an UR. How do you get them, there's 2 ways 1 is regular scouting. Regular scouting usually gives you one of the normal girls but it has a chance of giving you rares too. You spend friend points on normal scouting. Friend points are obtained in game. The 2nd method is by special scouting which will always guarantee you at least a rare card and it can only go up from there. Special scouting or honor student scouting as they call it costs love gems. Love gems are harder to earn in game, they're earned by completing goals mostly or by buying them but that's expensive. I also suggest you save up 50 of them because that 1 extra rare card is a big deal. Now onto leveling up there's 2 leveling systems. Regular and special practice. In regular practice you select the card you want to level up and then select the sacrifices, this is when having a lot of useless canon fodder comes in hand. This practice raises the card's skills. Special practice means combining cards, you combine 2 of the same cards to get a new version of that girl that has her level cap raised so if a card could only go up to lvl 40 it can now go up to 60. That's the jist of it. Mind you if you had a previously leveled up card and want to combine it make sure you select it first so you don't lose any levels. Cards can also only be combined once. And last but not least, attributes. There's 3 different attributes the cards have (smile, cool and another i forgot) and those attributes are tied to the songs so if a song has the smile attribute (the pink one) the more girls you have with a high smile attribute the higher you'll score and the more exp you gain. Same thing for the other attributes. There's an option to auto generate a unit, based on all the cards you have with the attribute you selected, it'll basically generate the best possible team with that attribute. That's what i do to save me the trouble. That's the basic mechanics of the game really Level up, complete goals, unlock story and songs. And collect all the cards~ Top level comedy. Laugh pls.
