Hey everyone, I'm KaveAhangar or just Kave. I've been occasionally been lurking here for some time and just decided to finally create an account. Besides that, I'm also sometimes active on Reddit in the r/vns subreddit, mainly in the WAYR Untranslated threads. I've been reading VNs for almost 2 years and untranslated ones for 10 months by now. (VNDB if anyone's interested). Anyway, thanks for reading and nice to meet you all.

So Moe Day (10/10) was a few days ago, and to celebrate both MangaGamer and JAST have VN sales on this week. Banzai! ~MangaGamer and JAST~

Welcome to Fuwa! Hope you'll have fun around here. ^^

Welcome to Fuwa Hajimemashite (Nice to meet you)

Pulltop did release one game under Jast USA. They're a brand of Will, which for years was one of basically two brands Jast had access to, when they rebranded as Peach Princess. Quick ancient history lession: Jast was a Japanese h-game maker. Jast USA translated a bunch of their titles into English. Then the founder got cancer or had a heart attack or something. He died, company folded. Jast USA wasn't sure what to do; it found new partnerships with Crowd and Will and rebranded itself Peach Princess. Eventually Peter Payne decided Jast USA was the more well-known name and re-orged under it. Well, Pulltop being a Will title, Jast USA released one of their games: Princess Waltz, in late 2008. They never released any of Pulltop's other titles, and 5 years later Pulltop decided to launch Moenovel. I think it is fairly safe to say that Pulltop probably wasn't impressed with Jast USA and is unlikely to work with them again. Their experience with IMHHW probably 'taught' them that going it alone is a 'much better' way to go, since it sold a LOT more than any numbers Jast could have put up in 2008.

Finished normal end of 428 shibuya scramble. I don't think i've ever overthunk a culprit this much.

Common First, I should say this VN isn't like Purple Soft's last few works. The common route is straight comedy and heart-warming antics combined with some minor drama and with a bit of personal growth for the protagonist on the side. It is good comedy and the personal growth is actually quite nice, since the protagonist as he started out would have driven me insane inside two hours. It is also relatively short, as are the heroine routes so far. I managed to finish the common route and one heroine route in around seven and a half hours... Makoto Makoto is a very straightforward girl, the daughter of a local yakuza group who has been ordered to live as a normal girl by her family. The funny thing is, she isn't one of those template heroines who dislikes her criminal family, but rather respects and loves them. This results in a rather hilarious personality that comes out a great deal in her route. This VN's route structure is really unusual, in that there is literally no H in the routes themselves, though there are a few nude scenes. As a result, this route passes by with relatively little ichaicha and most of its focus on the drama, which is one of the reasons why it is so short... there is no time wasted whatsoever. Michiru Aaah... Michiru is probably the most blatant example of the 'adoring little sister' I've seen recently... and combined with her being a total yamato nadeshiko and blind, this makes her the standout amongst the four heroines available at the beginning of the VN. One of her most hilarious aspects is how she sounds like a 'niisama-cultist' when talking to others, and how aggressive she is in her pursuit of her older brother... so naturally you'd expect a 'oh, I'm not sure if I can cross the line!' kind of route, right? Fortunately, my expectations were betrayed quite nicely on this, and the route itself is highly emotional, following a track I can guarantee you won't guess without spoilers. That said, it is mostly heart-warming and tear-jerking stuff, and that is one of its biggest draws. Because of the policy they are using for this VN - no H in the actual routes - it is really easy to focus on the plot flow, and there is none of that sense of 'you interrupted the story for a pink-colored scene?!' that comes so frequently with many VNs of the type. To be honest, I'm really surprised that no one has done this before, as having the choice as to whether to pursue the H in the extras section rather than go through it in the main game makes it a lot easier to enjoy the character interactions and story in general. Edit: Adding Misaki Misaki Ummm... I'll be frank, I was disappointed with Misaki's route... but that's because I went for the two most unique heroines - and least annoying - amongst the four starter heroines first. It isn't that it is a bad route. Indeed, if you go by the standards of your average VN (cutting the low and high ends off the curve) I'd say that it was in the upper ranks as individual heroine routes go... but after Michiru it just lacked impact. Misaki is one of those heroines who is a lot better as comic relief than as a heroine... or at least, that is how it felt to me. A big issue is that they reused Alice's face and voice (from Hapymaher) for her, and I was always a bit frustrated that Alice was the true/main for that one (I liked her the least, though I still liked her). Cutting out those emotions, her struggles are actually interesting, if a bit overly familiar for those who have seen (this really is a spoiler, though indirectly) That said, the theme for this particular one has been touched on so often in VNs lately that it seems overly dull... That said, if you weren't me, you'd probably be able to enjoy this route just fine - actually, you'd probably enjoy it a great deal - as long as you made sure to play it first or second (I'm not really interested in the annoying foreign girl heroine, since her speech patterns make me want to punch her).

agree with you i just finish Michiru and Misaki routes , i choose Michiru as the first route because Michiru route except last chapter is boring but for me it's accepable when read the last chapter made me i almost cry and understand all those boring chapter . Dont missunderstand that , i still disapoint from her route she made me almost drop this game Michiru !! Misaki 's route is very different althoght her route just about tsundere funny ojosan(?) shcool life but charactors line and almost event around her is fun to read however i talk about this route weak is but when i finish this route , i don't want it to end ~ . --- just finish first 4 heroines 's route. --- Makoto's Route is the most interesting route in first 4 routes. about my test my ratting for first 4 heroines route is DD>Makoto>Misaki>Michiru i choose DD > Makoto cuz but my favorite chalactor is still Tsudere ojousan? Misaki lol .

Sooo, a few weeks ago, during my university's Science Festival, I've given a public lecture about the rise and "fall" of VN fan translations to an impressive crowd of 4 people (+ my girlfriend and event moderator - the time of the day and awful weather made us no favours that morning). At least, the audience was pretty attentive and my GF took a few photos with her "vintage" phone - while you can barely see anything on them, I quite like the moments they captured so I've decided to share regardless. :3

Sweet, I know I'll be checking out a few of those this month. Maybe a late night All Hallows' Eve read~ edit: 100. spooooky

The Shadows That Run Alongside Our Car official free/PWYW download Description Character Routes The Shadows That Run Alongside Our Car follows a slightly unusual format. Rather than choosing a love interest, you pick a protagonist to see the story through. Both protagonists are nameable, but for simplicity's sake, I'll use the default names here. Each protagonist has 3 possible endings, for 6 total endings. These aren't the only ways to obtain these endings, but following this guide will allow you to see all the content in the game. Shelby Ending #1 Ending #2 Ending #3 Dustin Ending #1 Ending #2 Ending #3

Man, I feel the complete opposite from you. I though Michiru's route felt stagnant as hell and boring and found Misaki's route to be fun to read. I guess that's more a thing of me liking Misaki more than Michiru in the end.
