  1. So, I asked on reddit and in a blogpost about if people wanted another podcast about vns and since a lot of people were interested in it we decided to do it! So here we have the first episode where we discuss about learning japanese and reading untranslated stuff! I hope you like it, remember its the first episode so it sounds a little stiff since we dont have that much experience, it'll get better with time (also, please bear with me and my hopeless stuttering lol) https://www.mixcloud.com/VNP/the-visual-novel-podcast-ep-01-learning-japanese-and-reading-untranslated-visual-novels/

  2. It's interesting that they have so many game genres in there. Could this mean SP wants to expand beyond VNs and start localizing actual games? Some options are kinda bullshit. There's plenty of questions that ask me to rank stuff despite the fact I don't care for 90% of them. For example, I'm never going to own a gaming console, but I'm forced to put a "would very likely play a game in this console" because the survey doesn't allow a different opion. Or the option about where you get your information from. No matter what choice I make, it always implies I use all the sources, which is not true at all. I particularly liked this option though Lastly

  6. When it first started, I was certain it was the ridiculous number of tea-bag-like-containers of dashi stock that came in one shipment from Amazon. A warning to everybody: when it says "pack of 10", it means 10 boxes with some 6 bags in each box, not 10 servings. Also, they expire in, like, a month.

  8. There would probably be a lot of cute sisters involved in that fanfic if I were to write it. I actually had a dream once where Fuwanovel as a whole was personified as my little sister. It was terrifying. As for who would be in there, I honestly have no idea, and I'm afraid to think about it. For your second question, assuming I do manage to become a professional translator, of course I still want to have you as a pocket editor. Translating Chinese porn games is not just a hobby, it's a way of life!

    Hi!

    Welcome to the fuwa, it's nice to meet ya. Seems that otome gamers are coming out of the woodwork and into the forums here! As for VN recommends, i'm totally worthless in that regard, I goof of on games and anime too often. So i'm sorry if i'm not any help. Welp, self loathing aside, I hope we can get along on other things to come, and have fun on all you're endeavors. Here's some Chaika to show off, cuz into anime right now.

  14. Meh, consider it a stretch - but Liilith and Raz are a demon and angel, I doubt they'd be fazed by such sights - after all - they have witnessed countless atrocities across time~ Desensitisation is bound to happen to anyone after a vast length of exposure. Esp. if you know the lore and origin to Lilith, and what is written about what she went through (according to research anyway). The fact she jokes at everything makes sense, because nothing really matters to her. As for Sorami- That said, people are just too rigid - should learn to just go with the flow

  22. No current mobile platform allows 18+ content to be sold through official retailers (digital or physical). For PS Vita and Nintendo consoles you're basically doomed since you have to sell through official retailers. For Android your only choice would be to share the application through unofficial channels, but I doubt that would net you any tangible profit worth the cost, and this is not taking into account the hardware limitations (which, granted, aren't that bad nowadays, but still are inferior to PC). Until this scenario changes, I'm never going to support mobile ports over adult content.

  24. Well, most of your school friendships don’t survive the transition into adulthood anyway. People change, people move away, it takes effort to sustain a relationship which no longer has many things in common or through an inability to meet face to face. Usually people bond with their workmates (often people spend more time working than with their family,) or they get a hobby on the weekend (like sports … or getting smashed at the pub then getting thrown in jail for something lewd) and they bond over that common activity (bonding with your prison guard is maybe not so wise, though.)

  25. Thank you for your request. Oppai is a physical trait that can be applied to many females of all Servant Classes. However, they tend to be most prevalent in the 'Caster' class, for the spell they put over men. Please hold as we summon your Servant... Your call is important to us ... Please hold while we ignore it ... Servant successfully summoned! Thank you for selecting us for your Holy Grail War Servant needs!

  27. It was a decent, amateur podcast There were some inconsistencies with the amount that for example Arc talked in contrast to the amount Ange and you talked. Other than that, that was some A-grade stuttering near the end :^) Lookin' forward to more

  32. Yui Horie is such a perfect Voice Actress that almost any anime she's in goes up a rating or two just by her presence. Glad you noticed how important she was to bringing Ayu to life (coincidentally her voice acting in Love Hina which you mentioned is THE reason I became addicted to anime.)

    Hello, people!

    Welcome to the fuwa, sorry for the late greetingz been so absorbed in watching anime that the time just flew. I don't read much though, cuz i'm not much of an intellectual, still on Katawa Shoujo myself. Hope we can get along together and feel free to ask questions when you feel like it. See ya and here's some Chaika.

  34. @Jun Inoue The thing is, all of these character developments, introduction, calculated pace can be done with a different story. IMO you could say that this shaman problem is a mere plot device for those aspects. Obviously the only thing that can prove my opinion wrong if the next episode reveals whether or not the shaman is part of the arc 3 or nothing more than a side villain. Honestly I wish it proves me wrong just so I can praise the anime better, but at this point I can't. Sure the latest episode delivers epic action with more character development particularly for Ram but again, they're starting to drag this arc in terms of story. Let's put it this way, in my opinion Re Zero is a great anime. The thing is I don't want it to be a great anime, I want it to be a MASTERPIECE. I want White Fox to squeeze the potential that the source material has until it's last drop. I want this thing to be so amazing it'll be in the top 10 of MAL of all time. Which is why I'm nitpicking quite a lot on the last 3 episodes. You could blame me rising the expectations to a ridiculous level or blame episode 7 for making me rise it that high. @Ceris First 3 episodes (counting the double length first episode) covers the first volume, episode 4-7 covers the second volume, 8-11 (by my prediction) should be the third volume. Hence episode 12-25 would roughly cover 3-4 more books but LN and WN readers say that the ending would either have to be cliffhanger or original as not even the volume 9 saw the conclusion of the arc. Trying to rush the next arc to completion would destroy the anime's pacing. So the only thing to appease the fans would be cliffhanger. Of course considering right now we're only in episode 11, thus it won't be unreasonable to see the pre-orders and sales of the anime's DVD going up substantially and warranting a "Re Zero 2nd season" announcement at the final episode just to build the hype. I mean Log Horizon did it with it's first season and that thing is 2 cours too! @Kenshin_sama White Fox does sequels more than other studios *coughmadhousecough* so that gives us some hope for a Re Zero sequel. AGK pre-orders are way below expectations thus the author gave them the condensed script for the anime to finish up without resorting to cliffhangers. You also have to factor in how popular is Re Zero overseas compared to AGK which is popular due to hate. Merchandise sales plays a big role too for an anime's future. It is also possible that White Fox doesn't continue it but have another studio leading the production for a sequel instead. Silver Link and J.C. Staff are the prime choices as both studio is listed being outsourced by White Fox and are well known for LN/WN adaptations.

  38. Well I finally got some playing time this weekend, and went through Raziel's route in Tokyo Babel. I very much enjoyed it. The game is very ... unique, with it's crazy fighting scenes all over the place. It is nothing like anything I have ever read before, but one thing is for sure: it is very entertaining. I like the dark and grim setting, though the funny slice of life elements feel a little out of place. I mean, I love them, they are hilarious, but considering how dark and gloomy the game really is during its core story, it feels a bit weird. Anyways, think I'm going to read the Sorami route next, then Lillith. EDIT: Just found out, I HAVE to... (This game really needs H-scenes.)

  41. To be honest, I only played my favourite heroines: Ayu, Shiori and Makoto. The game feels so very ancient today. Awesome opening music though, and my favourite "The fireworks of winter". I think that the anime is easier to watch, the pacing and structure are good.

    Dropped animes = suicide

    You misunderstand. The anime for haganai is an adaptation of the light novel story. Most anime are adaptations of manga, light novels or visual novels. If they continue haganai the anime, they will base it on what happens in the light novels and it turns to shit at the end.

    Some curiosities I have

    That last thing is very much true. ACE Academy, for example, is a Kickstarter VN made by a small , new team in Canada (I think?), and while the story is pretty simple and straightforward, the characters break the cliches and tropes of the anime-related world. They actually feel like humans, like students. Their friendships feel like something that could indeed happen, not an orchestrated meeting by some writers. The romantic parts with the available female characters actually feel realistic, cute and interesting. It makes you sympathize and root for it. Although the game is (for now) very short, and the story quite simple, just the characters, events and relationships are enough to make it far superior to pretty much almost any JP VN of the school life genre. Not cringing even a single time... that was something almost new to me, in VNs.

    Translation help, please!

    Nosebleed is spot on. It's common for heroines in the heat of passion to not be able to pronounce words correctly, softening the consonant component of d to r. ramerame is just damedame. There are also plenty of H scenes where they have to speak with their mouths full (use your imagination) and they're able to pronounce even less sounds correct
