Bullying in VN's always seems like the worst ever.
Kurisu-Chan and 6 others reacted to Nayleen for a topic
Bullying is never "that big of an issue" unless/until you're the target, believe me. Most of the time it's not one but a few kids singled out, depending on group / gender makeup within the class, and gets even worse in bigger subjects/courses like P.E. or arts classes. It's not limited to Japan or the US either, but is pretty much happening everywhere. Just be thankful no one put you through the hell that is year-long bullying.7 points -

G-senjou no Maou LIVE on Steam
yvetox and 3 others reacted to solidbatman for a topic
Sekai wants to make money. Most companies do. Most companies do not exist to make "Deep Blue" happy in every way possible. Sekai has proven that a Steam release results in far more sales than a regular, 18+ release which is why they push all ages as much as possible. Get the most copies sold, get as much profit as they can to keep operating. Or we could just go back to the days of getting ignored, only getting nukige from MG, 1 VN a decade from Jast and whatever fan tl crumbs we could find.4 points -
This is a weird topic for me. On one hand, I feel really good about myself, because I successfully beat my 8th grade "tormentors" socially, physically and psychologically and effectively turned the tide on them. The flipside to that is, that I never did anything to save someone else, even though I easily could've done so. I don't think VNs are that far away from the global truth, although intensity surely varies on the location.3 points

Bullying in VN's always seems like the worst ever.
Chronopolis and 2 others reacted to Clephas for a topic
A lot of it is that Japan is a collectivist society... which means it sanctions the sacrifice of an individual's happiness for the sake of the harmony of the group pretty much instinctively. Not to mention that moral cowardice seems to be ingrained into the modern culture amongst young people... I know, I am a long-time otaku and in many ways a weaboo... but if you obsess about something, you shouldn't be blind to its faults. Collectivism has a lot of advantages socially... but from an individual perspective, the peer pressure is unbelievably destructive at times. One particular Japanese saying says it all... 'The stake that sticks out will be pounded down'.3 points -

Yume Miru Kusuri with Aeka's route is propably one of the best examples to start with. Don't make it sound like it's a Japanese-specific problem; bullying is more or less the same around the globe; it depends on people and enviroments - both they come from and where they lead their daily lives. Japan actually deals with it preety decently, mainly because of their collective society and general kindness engraved into their daily lives. There are places where it's far worse with people affected by this issue literally having no one to turn to for help.2 points

50 translated VNs you should read before you die
Pantsuhelm reacted to Kaguya for a topic
This list won't feature the VNs in order of "how good they are". Rating them would be way too much of a clusterfuck to me. The VNs are not in their respective order. Meaning number 1 is not the best, and so on. 1_CHAOS; HEAD 2_Cross Channel 3_G-Senjou no Maou 4_Fate/Stay Night 5_Forest This Visual Novel is the easiest visual novel translated to get a bad ending without using a walkthrough- which just adds to the fun of it. It makes a massive amount of references to common literature, which makes it even better. 6_Katahane It may seem like an ordinary moege- the atmosphere is light, the story is full of cuteness, which you can note by the character design and soundtrack. It gets really good in the middle, and you'll be dying to know what happens in the end. A game with multiple perspectives, it's definitely one of the most enjoyable Visual Novels I've ever read. 7 Majikoi 8_Little Busters! 9_Tsukihime "You shouldn't tell lies that you can't even fool yourself with" 10_Swan Song A post apocalyptic Visual Novel. 11_Symphonic Rain It may seem like your ordinary moege. Trust me, it's not. 12_Sharin no Kuni, Himawari no Shoujo (and sequel) 13_Sekien no Inganock Steampunk. An atmosphere full of mysteries and references that will make your head blow up. 14_Steins; Gate A visual novel that deals extensively with time travel and it's consequences. 15_Utawarerumono 16_Fault: Milestone (1 & 2) 17_Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni 18_Kara no Shoujo 19_Umineko no Naku Koro ni 20_Planetarian 21_Ever 17 Another top 10. 22_Remember11 It lacks in the ending, but otherwise the story of this VN has enough to easily become one of my all-time favorites. 23_Zanmataisei Demonbane 24_Rewrite "Could it possibly be rewritten, this fate of hers?" Another one that enters the top 10. 25_Narcissu 26_Grisaia no Kajitsu 27_Saya no Uta Only if you enjoy dark and messed up settings. 28_Higanbana no Saku Yoru ni 29_Eien no Aselia 30_Rose Guns Days (1 & 2) There are small sections of gameplay on this one, but you can skip them by pressing the space bar, so this still qualifies. 31_Sengoku Rance I feel obliged to comment on this VN before suggesting it to anyone. It's an Alicesoft title, which speaks a lot for itself... If you don't know how it's going to be like, well.. Kind of tough to describe. Lots of sex, including comedy rape. Alicesoft tends to make the whole story a comedy until right near the end, where things actually do get serious. It's worth checking out, if you don't mind Rance's personality. 32_Phenomeno Want a short VN that can captivate you for their whole duration? Here is it. Visual novel adapted from the youth horror novel written by Hajime Ninomae and illustrated by yoshitoshi ABe. 33_Ef- A Fairy Tale of the Two 34_Dysfunctional Systems Another one great for those who want short Visual Novels. 35_Daibanchou Another Alicesoft title. While Rouga is not near Rance's level when it comes to pissing off people, alicesoft's style is something which often doesn't please people. 36_Yume Miru Kusuri The endings pack quite a punch. 37_Kikokugai- The Cyber Slayer 38_Eden 39_Hoshizora no Memoria 40_Katawa Shoujo Yep, it's somewhat overrated. Still, the fact that it is substantially easier for those who are starting to play visual novels to read should not be discarded, and overall, the story was good. 41_World End Economica 42_YU-NO 43_Shikkoku no Sharnoth Yep, there is a minigame on this one. If you download a save data you can skip the minigame, though. So it still qualifies. Another VN that enters my top 10. 44_Muv Luv Alternative The first Muv Luv didn't have enough to enter this list. You should still read it, though~ MLA is definitely awesome. 45_Dangan Ronpa 46_Comyu - Kuroi Ryuu to Yasashii Oukoku 47_Hanachirasu 48_Ayakashibito 49_I/O 50_Deardrops1 point -
Forum Rules While Fuwanovel is all for discussion and having fun, we still wish to have a regulated atmosphere that's not harmful to our users, these rules are meant to keep said atmosphere on stable levels. Please read each point carefully. Fuwanovel's number 1 rule is Respect and Civility. Don't personally insult anybody. Don't be a troll or promote misconduct. Don't bait or harass any user or staff member. We take these offenses very seriously and we hope our users respect this rule above all else. General Forum Guidelines These guidelines are meant to be followed when posting on our forums. Don't embed explicit hentai images or videos on posts/threads, use Spoiler tags/URL form instead and tag it as NSFW. Don't advocate for any real-life crime. This is taken very seriously and will likely result in a permanent ban. Don't post any real life pornography of any kind. Don't provide or request illegal sources for copyrighted material, use legal sources instead. Don't spam the Recent Topics box. Don't post content you know might offensive to someone or a group of people. Don't post staff PMs in public, if you have any issue with how the staff carried something out, talk it out in private with a moderator instead. Don't bring personal issues in public, if you and other user(s) don't get along, please don't bring your strife to the forum. Don't promote or link to fan translations that either cost money or require you to make money for the patch creator to get. This includes things like patreon-only patch releases and using ad-infested link shorteners for downloads. Global Moderators and Board Moderators are responsible for carrying out the rules and it is up to them to interpret them and carry out an appropriate punishment for each situation. Lolicon/Shotacon Policy Pedophilia is an extremely complicated and sensitive real-life issue, and presents a significant challenge to visual novel communities who want to promote thoughtful discussion but are faced with strict laws on one hand and deplorable internet rhetoric/insensitivity on the other. Many of you are aware of how far back and how divisive this issue has been. To protect the site from legal action and to resolve this issue once and for all, we have chosen to amend the site rules as follows. We're trying to strike a delicate balance here -- acknowledging this is part of the VN medium, and sensitive discussions of these topics are important. The new policy: Fuwanovel is not the place to discuss the nuances of pedophilia – in real life or in entertainment. Because they are a part of the traditional VN heritage of Japanese games, we acknowledge that mature, focused discussions of “loli” characters and routes within a visual novel are valid, and we will allow them within the Visual Novel discussion boards, but beyond those confines, Fuwanovel is just not the place for this topic. We have also clarified our rules for posted or linked images of "lolis" on the boards, which can be read below: Brass Tacks: If you want to discuss a “loli” character or route in a visual novel, you can do so in the VN boards with the caveat that crude, inflammatory, provocative or aggressive posts will be grounds for a topic’s deletion, without warning Outside the realm of Visual Novels, Fuwanovel is simply not the place to discuss this complicated issue, and we ask you to avoid casual references to-, or discussions about-, pedophilia and the sexuality/sensuality of underage people or characters. This includes avoiding discussion or mention of porn- or sex-simulation games featuring underage or underage-appearing characters to the forums. Rules for images, avatars, and signatures: Do not post sexual pictures of underage characters. If an image is focused on, accentuates, or exaggerates a character's nipples, vulva, or penis or positions them sensually (body position, wet panties, nearly naked, etc.), you should not post it and it will be taken down. No erotic form Toddlercon is not allowed. Post will be taken down and you will either get warning or ban. Attitudes of the staff vary significantly on this issue, but this policy is presented – purposefully – without moral commentary. This is a tricky issue which presents real risks for the stability of the site, and ensuring the community’s longevity simply has to come first. Thread rules These rules are meant to keep threads as clean and free of trouble as possible. Please try to keep responses on-topic and meaningful. Don't derail threads. Don't spam threads. Don't double post repeatedly. Don't post for the sake of posting. Don't necrobump threads without the intent of continuing the discussion. Don't post seizure inducing GIFs without a spoiler and a warning labeling it as such. Any posts that are seen to fit in these categories or seen to be harmful to the thread risk being moved or deleted, or at worse getting the entire thread locked. Additionally some boards have their own specific rules, please see related topics inside each one of Fuwanovel's boards (they are usually pinned at the top). Blog Rules Blogs are meant to be personal and we try to respect everyone's rights to write about the things they like, however if a blog post is seen to break any content rules, staff holds the right to delete the entry as they see fit. Signature and Avatar Guidelines No explicit nudity (genitalia and female nipples are in this category) No avatars or signatures featuring sexualized loli/shota characters No pornography (this includes implied sexual acts and bodily fluids) No gore (disembowelment, dismemberment, torture, etc.) No offensive content (profanity, hate speech, offensive symbolism, etc.) No seizure inducing GIFs (or GIFs that make people's eyes bleed in general) No signatures exceeding 400 Kbs in filesize Reporting Content Whenever you come across content on the forums which breaks one of these rules, please report it using the report button underneath said post and explain why it's breaking the rules. Any member, no matter how new, has the right to report posts. You will not be punished for reporting any post, even if your report is deemed unjustified* *While reporting a post is fine, spamming reports in order to troll/abuse the report system is not and can lead to you to getting a warning. In case of doubt: If you have any doubts about how to proceed in any situation or if said situation is not listed here, please contact one of the online Global Moderators via Personal Message with your inquiry. Global Moderators have a blue usercolor at the bottom of the forum for easier identification. In case none of them are online during that time, the list of Global Moderators as well as the rest of the Fuwanovel Staff can be found here so you can message one of them. Rule Enforcement We trust Fuwanovel users to keep their composure when the situation calls for it. In any case of a serious infraction a Global Moderator is responsible for carrying out an appropriate punishment that can handle the situation effectively for both sides. Smaller punishments like revoking the ability to post content for a period of time can be given out if the situation calls for it (namely for spamming and trolling), without granting a warning point if a Global Moderator sees fit to do so. Warning Points are only given out to reoccurring or serious offenders that do not heed either rules or previous warnings. A Global Moderator is in charge of deciding whether or not a user deserves a warning point. Global Moderators are free to give harsher punishments like suspensions if they clearly notice the violation is severe or has ill intent behind it. There is a 3 Warning Point cap and when a user receives a 3rd warning point, they acknowledge they are putting their account in jeopardy and risk being banned permanently. Do not evade bans, if you create a second account to evade your ban, you risk getting it lengthened. If you feel you were not justly banned, you can PM a Global Moderator with your reasoning and that Global Moderator will bring it up for discussion with the rest of the staff to see if it is valid or not. In case a warning point was given out and a ban is proven to be unjustified, your warning point will automatically be revoked. In case your ability to post content was revoked and it is proven to be unjustified, it will be rectified. Username Changes To prevent user-confusion, the ability to change your username at whim has been removed from the user control panel. To change your username, please PM one of the global mods with your desired new user display name and your reason for making the change. Username changes require a strong reason and motivation to be changed, and will otherwise be denied to prevent confusion on the forums. User Title Changes User titles (the titles you see below your avatar) can be changed at any time by making a contribution to the community. Here are a few examples of ways to help out. When you've completed your good deed, please report to a Global Moderator, who can make the change for you. Assisting in coding projects and/or working on the front site; Helping with forums projects; Writing a walkthrough for a game; Writing an article for the Visual Novel Aer blog; Posting 500+ posts on the forums (posts in the "Coliseum of Chatter" do not add to this count); Or something else you can think of! Note: Users with 500+ posts have, in simply posting so regularly, helped to build the site. Thank you for your contributions! We hope you'll keep it up. These users can change their user title at any time from the user CP. Definitions These definitions serve as guidelines to define certain types of content. In case of doubt on whether or not something fits within one of these categories, a Global Moderator can make the judgement call. Spam Content without any purpose, coherency or relevance whatsoever. Singular spam posts are deleted without warning. If a user makes many spam posts in one thread or singular spam posts across many threads, then they are subject to a punishment. Threads or blog posts made for self-promotion (such as links to off-site personal blogs) should be limited to one (either a blog post or a thread) per product being promoted, because such promotion is more easily perceived as spam. Derailing Going completely off topic in a thread, this can result in the thread being locked or moved to a more appropriate section depending on whether or not it's salvageable. Harassment & Abuse This involves aggressive pressure or intimidation and can based off of things like racism, sexism, xenophobia, homophobia, etc. This will never be tolerated anywhere on the forum, even in private messages, and severe punishment will be applied to any cases of it. Posting for the sake of posting Posting several times in a thread without trying to move the discussion forward and only to increase post count and/or to troll/spam. Necrobumping threads without the intent of moving the discussion forward also falls into this category. NSFW Content that is too sexually explicit or excessively violent that could offend certain age groups. For something to be sexually explicit it must show either genitals, female nipples or sexual acts. Trolling Starting arguments or upsetting users by posting inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages with the intent of provoking users into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion. Insults An insult is a derogatory remark that labels an individual or group of users. Name-calling is not productive and typically derails the topic by turning the discussion to the credibility of the user(s). It never convinces the other party and often provokes a similar reaction from other posters. The resulting commotion is ineffective for the offender, offensive for the target, distracting for spectators and tiring for the staff.1 point

A Ren’Py game (let’s call it TEST for this tutorial) 2. unrpa 3. Python 2.7 4. Ren'Py for Android How to install: 1 – Using Python 2.7 and unrpa, extract data.rpa from TEST’s “game” folder. the links given on how to do so. It may be named something else at times but just remember to extract the content from the .rpa file. 2 – Insert the extracted content back into the “game” folder, and delete the .rpa file from that folder. 3 – Install Ren’Py for Android on your preferred Android device of choice. 4 – There will be a “renpy” folder on your Android device, in the “sdcard” root folder. Transfer your “game” folder into the renpy folder so it looks like “renpy/TEST/game”. 5 – In the “TEST” folder, create a “android.txt” file. Then enter these details: title= author= api=61200 orientation=landscape Enter the title and author details accordingly. Optionally, you can add in a png called “icon.png”. This will be shown when you’re selecting your game in the Ren’py for Android main screen. 6 – Now start up Ren’py for Android and you’re ready to play! NOTES: - Games with keyboard functions wouldn’t work. Because Ren’Py for Android does NOT support keyboard fucntions yet. - Games with video files will crash when trying to access them. Video is not supported as well. (Note : We can solve this problem with deleting all video files on visual novel) - Loading some Ren’Py games will result in unexpected errors at times. If you’re familiar with Python scripting language though, you can try to fix them by yourself. - Last but not least, REMEMBER to rename “TEST” with the name of the visual novel you’re transferring to your Android device.

I've seen it and enjoyed the ride, despite knowing jack shit about mahjong. Although I'm a hardcore yuri fan, so the yuriness alone could have carried it for me.

Koisuru Natsu no Last Resort Discussion Thread
CeruleanGamer reacted to TexasDice for a topic
As I said before, the actual "drama-confrontation-discussion-Summerslam-2015-Mania"-scenes went on for a little too long. The characters just talk and talk and talk and talk without really getting to the point, which made me lose track of what exactly we're even talking about in the first place. That and the fact that both of those scenes actually happen back-to-back was tiring. I only said this once before, (about Isuzu's route from Hoshimemo,) but it applies to Sango as well: Turn the plot down a notch and do more of the filler stuff.1 point -
Bullying in VN's always seems like the worst ever.
Chronopolis reacted to Kelebek1 for a topic
Because that's the point, it has to be interesting. People don't want to read about some very mild bullying. It's like saying, god why do so many people die in action films. Or, why are all these people cheating on their partners in this soap opera. That shit doesn't happen in real life which is exactly why it's interesting. It's there to be entertaining, and being slightly mean to someone isn't very interesting to read. Of course they have to go off the deep end and push people super far. I don't know why you think it must be real, compared to every single other genre which you presumably know isn't.1 point -
Did I told already that I really hate how they did widescreen? Most of event graphics lost part of head (visible clearly in Gonzou case on screenshots), all close-ups would look quite bad in this case (like part of eye not fitting the screen or headless persons or legless guys) - take for example this image for reference (there is much more similar ones, just that's the only one which does not affect the story) - http://psp4real.ru/_tr/ev_other_01.png What would be? Half-headless mobsters or chairless table? Anyway, I have my physical box first press release (something with huge artbook for all Akabesoft2 titles), so would not buy that, for sure. Dunno why create widescreen mode this way. For example Regista created PSP port of 4:3 widescreen, and allowed player to scroll image top/bottom/etc., to see whole picture. This is example of how I would like to see that. But... You know what Sekai would do, right?1 point

I sometimes wonder if the writers of the VN's were bullied themselves. I will generalize and say that it would be those types of people to get bullied. Don't flame me though, I'm ignorant in these things. I really hate injustice and bullying. uhh.. now I'm reminded of Chris from Majikoi.1 point -

I realize that my last post is a bit silly sounding, normally you would assume nothing is happening in the absence of any proof of it happening, rather than the opposite. And I don't begrudge anyone for thinking that way. The one thing we have to go off of is the remark they made during AX or Otakon this year (I forget which) which heavily implied that they want to continue releasing 18+ versions of the games that have them via Denpasoft. For some reason they can't say this outright. But I'm naive and hopelessly optimistic at the strangest things and this is one of those things, so I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt and will be running under the assumption that we'll get an 18+ release of g-senjou. And of Tenshin Ranman, Wagahigh, Chrono Clock, and everything else. Because ultimately the return is very likely to outweigh the cost of doing so, so why not? They've also been talking about expanding staff in order to promote and support the Denpasoft side of their business better, something they wouldn't do if they were going to give up on it. If you want to be pessimistic about it, that's okay too. I think I'll stop harping on people for being so until they establish a better track record. We'll see starting with this release, I suppose. edit: Also I support the all-ages conversion of any and all VNs for Steam release. Hell, I'd even support that phony all-ages version of Euphoria if it was real. Expanding the market is a positive thing. And it's not like it diminishes the 18+ side at all, either, considering the record sales MangaGamer has been seeing on their own site after going big on Steam.1 point

Courting the Seasons
Seraphinite reacted to mjriedstra for a topic
Sorry to hear about your computer troubles. Fear of losing progress is one of the reasons I have backup copies of my current project at various stages of completion spread across multiple hard drives. It's good that you didn't get discouraged. Keep at it! Side note, I can hardly remember a major character in a VN with such pronounced freckles. It's pretty interesting, aesthetically.1 point -

Birthday thread
Deep Blue reacted to Mr Poltroon for a topic
Thank you, thank you, one and all. I'm pretty sure at this point you're even managing to fool some people into thinking Tiag is actually my name, which it isn't. A very well done coordinated assault. Thank you kindly for using my name. Hai Hai to you too, whichever tribe may you belong to. Are you implying something? I'm merely 29 this year. While indubitably that may seem like a lot to someone of your tender age, it's not that bad. Just look at Rooke. You should make a petition for a rich man to buy and create the island of Varela, since you keep insisting I live there.1 point -
These games are some of the reasons I wish fuwanovel's walkthrough rules were more flexible. It would be so much easier to see at a glance where it was safe to create common save points to load from.1 point

RickAshayz reacted to SoulJustIn for a topic
School Days HQ Summary In the school the three people met. Their relation had been changed in the season, and turned into three love stories. Makoto has been admiring a girl he has seen on the train. That girl is Kotonoha Katsura, and he even managed to take a photo of her with his cell phone. Due to new seating in his class, he ends up next to Sekai Saionji, a nosy, but sweet and sincere girl. As she snoops for his cell phone while talking to him, she discovers his crush and vows to help him until Kotonoha agrees to go out with him. When Sekai finally gets them together, she realizes her own feelings after finding out that the person Kotonoha liked was, in fact, Makoto. While waiting for her train next to Makoto, who was waiting for Kotonoha, she has him talking about how he can repay her for all of her help. Before leaving for her train, she kisses him and cries when she boards the way home. Kotonoha happily arrives for her date with Makoto shortly after. With all three main characters carrying different expressions on their faces, the story begins. Ending Guideline / Suggested Route Order In School Days HQ, there's 22 possible endings for the player to experience.The endings are divided in: Main Heroines: Kotonoha (7 Endings) and Sekai (5 Endings) Sub Heroines: Hikari (2 Endings), Otome (1 Ending), Setsuna (1 Ending) Two Harem Endings And lastly 4 Bad Endings. The route order i suggest will be the: Two main heroines Kotonoha and Sekai Endings, Sub heroines Endings, Harem Endings and lastly the (infamous) Bad Endings. The Vn has Timed Choices , the player can also use right click to increase he countdown. School Days HQ also has built-in Flowchart , simply load and choose where you want to return to (only when you've been through the route).

Grisaia no Kajitsu Licensed by Sekai Project Summary Mihama Academy - on the surface, a closed learning environment established to nurture students who find themselves at odds with the world around them; in actuality, an orchard-cum-prison built to preserve fruit that has fallen too far from its tree. Whatever the circumstances behind its establishment, Mihama Academy is at present home to five female students, all with their own reasons for "enrollment." For better or worse, each girl has established a routine obliging of her current situation; life moves at an idle, yet accommodating pace within the walls of Mihama. Yet with the arrival of the institute's first male student, the nearly preposterously opaque Kazami Yuuji, the students at Mihama begin to fall out of step with their predetermined rhythms. Will Yuuji prove to be the element the girls around him needed to take hold of their lives once more, or will the weight of their pasts prove too steep a wall to overcome? And in the first place, just who is Kazami Yuuji? While the true nature of the "job" he is wont to alight to at the most haphazard of moments remains shrouded in secrecy, one thing is for certain - his encroachment upon the quiet orchard known as Mihama Academy will prove itself momentous in one way or another. And of course, one cannot discount the possibility that perhaps Yuuji himself carries the weightiest past of any of the students... Ending Guideline / Suggested Route Order The game has a similar structure to G-Senjou no Maou in that its plot branches into a heroine's route at certain choices, although each of them is valid in its own as there's no true end. After entering a heroine's route the choices boil down to a single one for good/bad end. Following the flow of the story and entering each route as soon as you encounter them would lead to the following order: Makina -> Amane -> Sachi -> Michiru -> Yumiko. That said, Route Guideline Amane Good End Bad End Makina Good End Bad End Michiru Good End Bad End Sachi Good End Bad End Yumiko Good End Bad End Attribution A mysterious source. Aaeru formatted the original version of this post. It has since been updated and reworked several times by various staff members and admins.1 point
