Welcome to this week VNTS Review. For this week title since we have Drapri 2 release along with three shrine maiden VNs from Shiravune, I decided to combined the English title of Drapri 2 (Slobbish Dragon Princess 2) with Japanese word for shrine maiden (Miko), so we have 'Slobbish Dragon Miko' as this week review title. As for this week while normally it should be interesting that we finally have Rewrite+ despite the bug, I just think that it's a redundant release seeing that we already have this translated since way back at 2013 despite Ixrec's infamy of (So-called) inaccurate translation. Other than a redundant big release here, we also have Valve unfortunately did reject Amatsutsumi's build along with several release announcements and releases. Overall I feel that this week is an average one despite the number of the release, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week.
Valve did reject Amatsutsumi's build, in which it forced Sekai to search another platform to sell the VN. What I can say is that it definitely quite an annoyance because it mean that Valve being random with their rejection here, although if one want to be fair compared to Chrono Clock Amatsutsumi here has almost twice of the sex scenes so it would be harder for Sekai to reasonably cut the sex scenes. In any case I hope that Sekai can smoothly release it on any other platform beside Steam in the near future. As for Rewrite+, while I know that the ending has some difference in the end most of those are still the same (Especially in regard of the story) so perhaps it might be not quite worth to get in case you want to replay it again, although if you want to get Sekai version then go ahead and beware that there's numerous bugs in there. Sekai also released Drapri 2 at the same date as Rewrite+ release, and no much to say other than our lazy MC suddenly got two more dragon girls to contend. If anything else at least the outfit are quite sexy, so go get Drapri 2 if you want to see some cute dragon girls and have fun.
Finally Mangagamer announce their next release, and it's Genesis (Trinoline FD for the reminder) in that they'll release it at next year (January 20th). Speaking of next year release, we also have JAST reveal that they indeed licensed Dead Aegis and that they'll release it at January 7th later. There's also a bonus if you preorder it, in that there's a prequel called Dead Aegis Gaiden that JAST released at the same time they announced the release date of the VN. As for Dead End Aegis itself, I'll tell more at the release time later. We also have Ninetails successfully Kickstarted all of Frontier fandiscs, and the gathered fund here was almost 4 million yen (ie 3,977,526 yen). Shravune did release three gameplay VN that have miko, and what I can say is that I wonder whether they'll release Natsu Kagura or not. Well you can try to play the gameplay VNs in question if you interested with more Debonosu's works, and have fun.
From fan translation, we have Eustia was at 94.10% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 68.63% TLC-ed, Harugi was at 42% edited, Senmomo was at 22.84% edited with side stories has signiifcant work at 17.43% edited, 51 out of 138 script files of Nagomibako was edited, and Taimanin Kurenai was at 60% edited. We also finally have an update from Amagami, in which they already finished with synching the text and right now they created the patch while undergoing the test, which mean that it's about time to finally have Amagami translation patch to be released. Lastly we have White Album 2 translation team already finished everything and preparing the patch, and right now the patch check is already done. If anything else, we may have this released before the Christmas which is more than likely as of now.
That's all for what I can write in regard of this week VNTS Review, and see you next week.
PS - Forgot to mention that we have Sukiuso was finally fully translated, and as for the next plan the team will began tackling the TLC before going to do the editing works and QA stuffs.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and since we have Laplacian announced that they'll release Aojashin in this month along with them already opened the Steam store for it, I decided to just parodied Yu-Gi-Oh ARC-V that has the characters visiting the past Yu-Gi-Oh setting, because in Aojashin we'll see Laplacian did exactly the same thing with them have the three pairs of the MC and single heroine have the stories that were set in past Laplacian VNs (Kimiyume, Newton VN, and Mirai Radio) hence 'Laplacian ARC-V' here. As for this week, well we only have several nukige releases so release wise it's not that interesting, although at least the release announcements for the several interesting title here made up for the release, so overall it's another interesting week as well thanks to the announcements. Let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
This week we see the release for both of Humbling of Holy Maiden and Maid for Pleasure, with the former has the main heroine here feel guilty about the famine surrounding her country so she decided to be raped by the MC who is reincarnated from another world (So yes basically it's isekai nukige VN). While for Maid VN, it's Cherry Kiss VN in that it has the premise in that it's involved the MC who is a son of a rich person got a strict maid and somehow she was roped into baby-making session in order to keep the MC's family intact because the maid didn't know who's MC's girlfriend. Well I can only say that go get the nukige if you interested with it and have fun. Shiravune released SISTERITUAL in that it has shrine maiden and incest, and speaking of shrine maiden Shiravune announced three gameplay VNs involving shrine maiden in which all of the three is the spin off from Natsu Kagura that has been developed by Debonosu (If anything else at least it won't have sex scenes censored) with Shiravune will release those three VNs at 17th later.
Laplacian finally manage to open the Steam store for Aojashin, and once again I'll say that Laplacian here really know on how to open the can of worm by announced that the overseas version will not have the sex scenes in which it's basically what Pulltop infamously did. Granted that Laplacian promised the new scenes that supposed to be added in order to make up the censorship, but obviously people would still find that it's disagreeable. If anything else, I hope that Laplacian would add the music gallery in Aojashin censored version because I just read that apparently they forgot to add that feature in the original version. Oh yes they'll try to release it at this month, and with that the uncensored patch of it also has the update in that the translator basically wait until the release because he need to make sure on where he supposed to add the sex scenes or whether he should translate the aftermath of the sex scenes later.
From fan translation, we have Taimanin Kurenai was at 55% edited, Senmomo was at 20.24% edited with Chapter 2 was at 7.86% edited, the translator of Akagoei decided to reworked on the sex scenes, and Takae's route of Majikoi A-5 was fully translated. We also have some update in regard of Walkure Romanze with the translator fully translate Celia's route, and he already edited some of the lines of it with the detail that he did edit 9 out of 21 chapters of non-sexual chapters (He called the scenes as chapters) along with him edited one of the seven sex scenes. Lastly in regard of White Album 2 we have the translator said that he'll release translation patch within next week or the week after that at the latest, so with that we can expect the release at Christmas for the latest which to say quite fitting to a degree.
Last but not the least, we have Nekonyan did their usual monthly updates, but before going to Nekonyan updates let me write the update from Sekai first in that we'll going to have Drapi 2 released at 17th later along with them finally have Amairo Chocolata 2 fully translated and right now they started the editing work of it. For Nekonyan's updates, we have Cafe Stella was at 95% for both of translation and editing work, Kirikoi FD was at three quarter translated along with 5% edited, both of Makeover FD and the third secret project was at halfway edited, and Aoi Tori was at 90% translated along with 70% edited. Lastly after several hurdles in the past finally we have Hello Lady passed the review process from Valve, and with this they already prepared for the Steam store that will be opened at the next week. Which mean that they already got the release estimation for it, and it'll be at January's end later so you can prepare to get it if you've been waiting for it for more than three years.
That's all for what I can write in regard of this week VNTS Review, and see you next week.
PS - Forgot to mention that we have JAST did tease an announcement, and from what I can read at Discord along with the picture it's quite clear that it's Mahou Shoujo Dead Aegis. What I can say is that it got some disturbing sex scenes, although the main selling point of the VN (Magical girl was raped after being defeated) was surprisingly sparse despite that people look forward to it when it come to magical girl nukige like that.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and since we have Icing release along with the big update in Akaneiro I decided to combined the word from both VNs so we have 'A Cake Iced in Scarlet' as this week title (By the way the title here did resemble the Sherlock Holmes story 'A Study in Scarlet'). For more elaboration, icing here is the process to coat the cake with sugar and obviously there'll be a lot of making cake in Icing seeing that both of the MC and his wife are patissiers, while as for 'Scarlet' part here it's simply because Akane here can be translated as scarlet. Anyway as far as this week concern, while release wise we only have Icing and otome VN Ayakashimori, Sekai here did a lot of updates with their bigger name including finally announced the exact release date for Rewrite. Overall this week is an interesting one thanks to Sekai's updates, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
Like I say beforehand, we have Venus Blood Frontier fandiscs was have Kickstarter and the result is that they successfully funded it with the fund gathered was at 2,611,916 yen which is more than twice of the original goal (At 1,200,000 yen), and in case you want to fund it there's still time in that it'll be ended eight days later. We also have the estimation release time for this, and it'll be at March 2022 later which should be more than possible to fulfill after seeing both of Frontier and Hollow. For Icing we have our nameable MC Shigure who is a patissier that married his colleague Akiho, and like previous VNs from Hachimitsu Soft that were localized by artlink obviously we'll see a lot of romantic moment between the married couple even with both of them are also rival in regard of patissier skill (Not that it stop them to run a cake shop together). Go get Icing if you're in the mood to read the VN that has romance in a cake shop, and have fun.
For Ayakashimori, well no much to say other than we got the female MC want to be the member of Ayakashimori in that it's a special bureau that deal with youkai and that it's only available for Switch, so you can try it if you're an otome game fans that have Switch and have fun. Shiravune licensed two nukige with one of those was released back at 3rd (FUCKOMOTIVE) and another one will be released at 10th later (SISTERITUAL). What I know is that both VNs have two heroines each, and both has specific setting with FUCKOMOTIVE has train and SISTERITUAL has shrine along with blood related sibling sex scenes (Well it's in the title). Lastly we finally have Frontwing announced the last volume of Phantom Trigger and they announced the exact release date in which it'll be at February 25th later, although we didn't have them announce that it'll be available in English though even though it's pretty obvious that they'll also release it in English simultaneously.
From fan translation we have both of Asahi and Ouka routes of Snow were finished with the translator will be focused on translating both of Meiko and Legend routes (For the info the latter is not really the name of the girl, but rather the name of the route itself), Eustia was at 93.86% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 67.35% TLC-ed, Chaos Head Noah was at 11.25% edited, Harugi was at 40% edited, 46 out of 138 script files of Nagomibako was edited, and Loverable was at 98.97% translated along with 98.64% edited. We also have Senmomo was at 18.85% edited with Chapter 2 was at 7.86% edited, and currently they're in need of a hacker. Lastly we have announcement from White Album 2 Discord that they'll release the patch in the upcoming weeks and very likely earlier before Christmas, and so we have 19 days of wait at most to finally have White Album 2 full translation patch here. That's all for the updates from fan translation section.
As for Sekai's updates, we have Akaneiro was at halfway translated, Amairo Chocolata was at 90% translated, Yumeiro was at 35% translated, and the secret project was fully edited along with them wait for the build. We also have them scheduling the release for Drapri 2 along with them finally started to work on Harukuru's engine with the current progress was at 20% (They still wait for the build though). They also finally has some updates on Tokeijikake, and that they finally have list the QA progress for both of Daybreak and Morning Mist (80% and 30% respectively) with the former was planned for the release at Q1 2022, which to say may be possible (As long as there's no additional bugs in Daybreak) seeing that they did announce that they'll release Rewrite at 17th later with the Harvest Festa release at later date (It's still at 20% edited for the info). Last but not the least, we have Amatsutsumi was in review by Valve which mean obviously it was already finished the QA along with the engine work, and hopefully the review progress can be going without much fuss so that we can have this released smoothly.
That's all for what I can say in regard of this week, and see you next week.
As for this week title, since we have Venus Blood Hollow released back at 26th along with Kimagure Temptation release back at last week, I figure that I'll just combined the words from both title so we have 'Venus Blood Temptation' as this week VNTS Review title, which to say might be a fitting title if Ninetails want to make a new Venus Blood game sometimes in the future. Back to the topic, and as for what I can say in regard of this week it would be it wasn't as active as the last week seeing that the companies wasn't as aggressive as the last week when it come to announce new licenses and released the VNs. But still this week is not too bad here, especially when it come to Hollow release and that some companies also already announced the exact release date for the VNs. Overall this week is a good one albeit not as exciting as the last week, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
In regard of the VNs that have the exact release date were announced, what I can say is that the VNs are not as interesting as Hollow. That said, at least artlink really prove that they want to localize all of Hachimitsu Soft VNs, and the next VN that they'd localize is Icing in that I'd say would be a nice title to be localized by artlink. Also yes they already prepared the release date for this, and it'll be at December 3rd later. Almost forget to mention that the premise is still like previous Hachimitsu Soft VNs with the MC will have lovely moment with his new wife, and this time he and his wife are also the rival in patissier work. Other than Icing, we also have Cheery Kiss will released their newest nukige (Maid for Pleasure) at December 10th later, and at the same date we'll also have Humbling of a Holy Maiden released. We also have Tokyo Onmyouji release estimation was announced, and it'll be at December. Lastly just in case you still waiting for Total Eclipse update, there's a new update in which they already completed the translation and currently the editing of it was in progress.
Mangagamer finally have the updates, in which the last time they do that is way back at August if I remember right before they got busy with their Virtual Youtuber stuffs. As for the updates, there are four updates with three of those are in regard of the last week announcements, and turned out that those announcements are indeed their secret project. As for the updates, we have 11th project aka Raillore was at 61% translated along with 58% edited, 12th project aka Uuultra C was fully translated and edited, Uchi no Imouto was fully translated and edited as well, and Rance IX was fully edited along with the script insertion currently in progress.
For this week fan translation updates, we have Eustia was at 93.69% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 66.43% TLC-ed (Or rather the translator just input the number into Excel spreadsheet because like I say beforehand the TLC of it was already finished), Harugi was at 39% edited, Mahoyo was at 66.32% edited, Onee-chan no Yuwaku was at 60% TLC-ed, and both of Ouka and Asahi routes of Snow were almost finished. Lastly we also have the update in regard of White Album 2 digital novel, and for the info they manage to finished one novel that was focused on Kazusa which mean that they'll finish the second novel which is focused on Setsuna. More importantly though, they'll prepare the patch if the second novel is finished so we can say that White Album 2 full translation patch here is almost close to the release.
Last but not the least, we have Ninetails released Venus Blood Hollow (Or if you prefer original name Venus Blood Hypno) back at 26th, So far I like that Ninetails manage to fulfill their promise in regard of Kickstarter very seriously without much fuss, so it should be obvious that if one want to see some Kickstarter drama Ninetails is not the one that can provide it lol. As for the premise, we have Leonhardt who have been in misfortune because his family was perished thanks to the demon, and he'll do anything to take revenge to said demon. Of course the path to that goal won't be easy seeing that the demon is more powerful than him, and obviously he'll need a lot of power. Said power is obviously manifest in form of tentacle, and from there he'll absorb the power and corrupt the powerful female using the tentacle if it mean that he'll get more power. Anyway you can play it by yourself if you want to see more of it (It's gameplay VN for the reminder), and have fun. Note that it should be goes without saying that there'll be a lot of rape using the tentacle, in that it shouldn't be too surprising if you've been playing Frontier in the past.
That's all for what I can write in regard of this week, and see you next week.
PS - Ninetails just launched the Kickstarter for Venus Blood Frontier fandiscs, and as for the goal it's only at 1,200,000 yen because it's not a full length VNs like both of the main game and Hollow with 13 days left. As for the current situation, well let's just say that it's almost funded with gathered fund was already passed 1,100,000 yen.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review and sorry for the belated review here. As for this week title, well I just combined the words from both of Fakku and Mangagamer nukige releases so that we have 'Sultry Elves and a Chaste Orc' as this week VNTS Review, and for the reminder the English title for both of Fakku and Mangagamer releases are 'Zero Chastity: A Sultry Summer Holiday' and 'Horny Elves and a Moral Orc' respectively. Anyway what I can say in regard of this week is that it's an active one thanks to Mangagamer announce an interesting new title along with Sekai releases two of their title, so yes I can say that this week is an exciting one. Let's see what I can write in regard of this week.
No much updates from fan translation at this week other than we have Taimainin Kurenai was at 40% edited and Senmomo was at 16.92% edited with Chapter 1 was fully edited, although we also have an update in regard of White Album 2. The update goes like that they finished the report for the testing and the next work is that they'll finished up two side stories that was unlocked after finished the VN, although since the team find a big problem that would took more time to resolve when they attempt to work on that they decided to just make the side stories as the PDF files. After translating side stories, next they'll make the patch in which whether it'll be bug-ridden or not will determine their decision to release the patch (Let's hope that it won't be buggy there). I don't know when all of the processes will be finished, but someone did say that it might be finished at early December so let's wait and see in regard of that.
Frontwing did release Aikagi, and I can only say good for them that they still manage to release a VN even with their problematic Sharin Kickstarter. We also have Fakku released their own nukige that I mentioned earlier, although I'll just pass that. Anyway in case you interested with both of Aikagi and Zero Chastity (Or perhaps one of those), go get the VNs and have fun. We also have the news in regard of Humbling of Holy Maiden, and the news is that finally they have the English version of it was 100% complete with the current situation that they preparing for the releases, so it shouldn't be too long before finally we have it released. Lastly we also have Ninetails say at the latest Kickstarter update that they did probably need to delay the release for Hollow Steam version because Valve still not finished with the review, but seeing that the trial was accepted by Valve at least it mean that Hollow will make it on Steam, so let's wait and see here.
Mangagamer
This week Mangagamer has a big updates, and the big update in question is obviously not Horny Elves and a Moral Orc release that was released back at 18th (You can get the VN if you interested with it), but instead we have them announce three new title in which curiously none of those are their secret project. Oh yes there's no their next release announcement here following the release of Horny Elves, although I suppose Mangagamer decided to make it up with the new title announcements. Almost forgot to mention that Mangagamer still working on Higurashi Hou according to this tweet, with the translation and editing already done with the programmer was very busy so it would be a while before they work on the programming.
For the first title as expected we have the second part of Uchi trilogy released, and the title is Uchi no Imouto in which instead of his childhood friend this time we have the MC will have the romance with his little sister. I guess I can say that Moonstone here still has their little sister fetish if we look back at Imouto Paradise trilogy, and more importantly it's pretty obvious that Mangagamer will license all of Uchi trilogy so it's only a matter of time to have the third part of it to be announced by them. The second announcement is a BL VN with the name Uuultra C in that it has premise like kaiju along with robot and superhero in 70's, and other than that I know it's from the same company as Hashihime so at least I expect the BL VN here would have some interesting story to a degree seeing that Hashihime here is quite well received.
The last announcement from them is Raillore in which it's the 5th 3rdeye project, and yeah Mangagamer already throw an obvious hint toward this with 'keep an extra eye' stuffs. As for Raillore itself we have the same main characters formula like at Sorcery Jokers in that we have two MCs and two heroines for each of the MCs in Raillore, although the setting here is different in that it was set at the far future where the Earth has been changed in that it regressed to the Middle Ages civilization so obviously we'll going to have the usual isekai setting only without going to another world part (For the info most of isekai setting are based on Earth at Middle Ages). In Raillore here 3rd eye did some experiment with them removed the narration for the battle and story, and in exchange they tried to do some animation to depict the battle. Whether it work for the people or not is up to each of their own (Mod Clephas didn't like the change here), but at least I can say that the HDD size of this is quite big at 13.5 GB. Anyway I look forward to see the update in regard of this later.
Sekai Project
After three years of waiting, finally Sekai was done with ReLord 2 translation work and manage to release it back at 20th, although if I may say it's a bit too late because there's already a long gap between the release of the first part and the second part (Three years). If anything else, at least it's not as slow as Tokeijikake in that Sekai was still busy with the engine work of it until now, although ReLord here is obviously still not as fast as Nine in that it just took two year to release all four parts of it. Anyway as for ReLord 2 our MC will keep fighting the witch who took over the demon world by stripping them, and for the reminder our MC here is the demon who has fought the witches in order to retake the land that were claimed by the witches. Go get ReLord 2 if you been waiting for three years since the first ReLord or perhaps want to play more Escude VNs after Yamizome Revenger, and have fun.
Last but not the least we have Kimagure Temptation that was released by Sekai at the same date as ReLord 2. Unlike ReLord 2 in which it's the middle part of the trilogy, Kimagure here is a standalone VN so you can just play it directly, although that said it also has some connection with Nanairo. For the premise, we have our MC Haruhisha who is an onmyoji was requested to handle a mysterious murder case in an apartement. At the same time, we have our heroine Anneliese came from Japan in order to stay permanently because she like otaku culture, and then both of her and Haruhisha met with Anneliese interested with Haruhisha sex drive because Anneliese herself is a succubus. While the graphic here is promised a light hearted nukige story with succubus and all, one should remember that it's from the same company (And writer) as Nanairo and therefore there would be the same element (ie mystery) that happen in Kimagure here. Go get Kimagure if you interested with it, and have fun.
That's all for what I can write in regard of this week, and see you next week.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and since we have Yamizome Revenger released back at 5th with one of the heroines is the MC classmate who become himekishi (Literally mean Princess Knight in Japan) in order to fight the demon king who possessed the MC, I parodied the light novel with the name that literally tell the same situation (Himekishi ga Classmate) although the novel has slightly different circumstances from Yamizome hence the word Gaiden (It mean 'Side Story' in Japan, so we can treat Yamizome Revenger as side story for Himekishi ga Classmate if one want to make a crossover of those two lol). Anyway as for this week, while release wise we still have the same number like last week (Two releases) obviously our focus is on Nekonyan's updates. Other than their updates, both Frontwing and Fakku did announce the exact release date for their VNs along with several updates from fan translation. Overall I guess I can say that this week is an average one, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week.
As for the two releases that we have in this week, both of those are nukige. One of those are from Shiravune (I suppose they took a break at this month after Dohna Dohna release) in that they released the VN with the English name 'My Horny Ex-Classmate Trophy Wife's Sexual Reckoning' with the premise the MC was decided to blackmail his former female classmate who already married and has been haughty to him in the past, and from the blackmail it should be obvious that there'll be a lot of sex (Well it's nukige). Another release is from Cherry Kiss in that once again the premise is about the MC who somehow has the power to seduce the monster girls, and the MC start the journey to gather his harem of monster girl. Well go get both VNs (Or perhaps one of those) if you interested with it, and have fun. Oh yes Shiravune didn't announce the release of their nukige, so perhaps they know that there won't be much hype from their just released title.
Turned out that Frontwing need three to six months to fix the bug that they find on Sharin, and the bug is happen in the screen change function (The one that allow you to chose the screen between 4:3 and 16:9). What I can say is that it's still the same technical problem reasoning that caused Frontwing need to delay Sharin release, so nothing going to change that other than at least it should stop them to give some useless updates within three to six months. To compensate the delay in regard of Sharin, they had announced the exact release date for Aikagi in which they'll release it at 17th later. Speaking of announce release date, we also have Fakku announced Zero Chastity exact release date in which they'll release it at 16th tomorrow which if we remember the release of it was delayed thanks to the site problem that Fakku face (Well good for them that said problem was finally fixed).
I know that the translator did say that we may have White Album 2 full translation patch at this week, although after I check the Discord the other staff said that it may be not possible to have it released within this week because there still some work left (Such as applying the remaining feedback from the testing and do some more programming stuffs) before finally release the patch. What I can say is that while obviously it would be good if the patch released at this week, for now I'll just wait and see in regard of this. For the rest of fan translation updates, we have Taimanin Kurenai was at 70% translated, Mahoyo was at 85.07% TLC-ed, Harugi was at 38% edited, and Senmomo was at 15.9% edited with Chapter 1 was almost fully (93.97%) edited. Lastly we also have Kakugo Translation give the update for Sukiuso, and for the update we have the whole VN was past three quarter (78%) translated with them currently working on the last route. They also said that they'll start the editing at the next year when all of the routes are fully translated, so let's see if they can do it later.
Last but not the least, this week we have Nekonyan's updates. For the updates, we have Aoi Tori was at 85% translated along with 65% edited, Cafe Stella was at 90% translated and edited along with 20% in QA, Makeover FD was at a quarter edited, and Mirai Radio was fully edited with the engine work on it was halfway done. We also have them finally updated their second secret project after a while here, and currently it's been at 60% translated. Other than second secret project, we also have the update from the third secret project in which it's been fully translated along with 35% edited. Lastly we also have Hello Lady progress in which we finally have the engine work of it was done along with the QA progress of this was touched 70%. For Nekonyan's next release, I would say that it might be Hello Lady which sounds more than possible, although the situation obviously can be changed so let's wait and see.
That's all for what I can write in regard of this week, and see you next week.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and as for this week title I'll explain it more at PS later. As for this week, it should be obvious that we have some nice releases here even though it's not as much as last week (At least Dohna Dohna release here is more than make up for the less number of the release). Other than the releases, we also have Sekai did announce that they took over Whirlpool newest VN license as expected along with JAST finally announced the exact release date for Yamizome Revenger. Overall even with less number of releases compared to the last week, this week is quite an exciting one and let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
Cherry Kiss announced yet another nukige that they'll release at next week (8th) later, and the name is Stealing a Monster Girl Harem. No much to say other than it has the premise the MC somehow has the power to seduce the monster girls, so it should be a good choice in case you like a harem of monster girl there. Ninetails has a Kickstarter update with the new plan to do the Kickstarted for Venus Blood Frontier three mini fandiscs, although seeing that those are more or less only contained sex scenes I'll pass those. Good luck to Ninetails in regard of Kickstarter later, although if I may honest I would prefer them to do the Kickstart for either Ragnarok or Savior (The newest Venus Blood VN). We also finally has the new update from Love Lab Japan VN, and for the updates we have the English version of Chinkamo Twins was almost completed while at the same time they're finishing up the QA work for Humbling of a Holy Maiden.
As expected Sekai did license the most recent Whirlpool VN, and the VN in question is Animal Trail Girlish Square. From what I understand, the premise is about the MC who become the manager of his favorite indie idol group after find out the group turned out to be a beast girl from another world who also magical girls with the mission to save their own world. Oh yes Sekai already worked on this apparently alongside Whirlpool, and as for the progress currently we have this was fully translated and edited with them currently waiting for the build. For the exact release date of Yamizome Revenger, JAST did announce that they'll release it at Friday (5th) later. While granted that the release here was quite overshadowed by two big releases (Dohna Dohna and Venus Blood Hollow), I still look forward to the release seeing that I've been waiting for this ever since JAST announced this back at AX 2019.
For fan translation updates at this week, we have Senmomo was at 12.57% edited with Chapter 1 was at almost three quarter (74.28%) edited, Harugi was at 35% edited, Shin Koihime Musou was at 51% edited, Taimanin Kurenai was at 60% translated, and Loverable was at 97.95% edited. For the last but not the least fan translation update at this week, we finally have Setsuna's route in Coda was fully playtested and with this only Kazusa's true route that was still untested. The translator also already said that the release time is almost close, in which he said that they'll release it at this month (November), so let's see if we can see the release of White Album 2 complete translation patch at the remaining 29 days here.
Mangagamer did release Love Sweets which mean that they already have the next release, and the next release in question is Horny Elves and Moral Orc that will be released at 18th later. As for the Love Sweets itself other than the release is obviously overshadowed by Dohna Dohna release, at first Moonstone want to localize this by themselves only to be failed and of course they decided to ask Mangagamer for the help. I also find out that apparently the translation sample that they showed was quite bad, so perhaps they ask Mangagamer's help with that in mind as well. For the premise, well we have the MC who want to have the girlfriend work at the cafe where there's a lot of girl with the hope to find his girlfriend with one of the girlfriend candidate is his blood related little sister. Well go get Love Sweets in case you're in the mood for a light charage, and have fun.
For this week biggest release, it's obviously Dohna Dohna in that it's the latest Alicesoft VN. Also as we know this time we have Shiravune did release it instead of Mangagamer, so perhaps it might be possible that Alicesoft will ask Shiravune to localize Evenicle 2 later. For the premise of Dohna Dohna itself, we'll have a group of outlaw who live in a city that was ruled by a giant corporation. One of what the outlaw doing is that they'll kidnapping the girl and then selling them as prostitutes, and you'll doing that a lot if you need money because it's the only way to gain money. With that premise, it should be obvious that the VN here won't have light story despite that the graphic here are quite colorful and also it'll have some disturbing sex scenes, although obviously it won't be at the level of Clockup (Or rather it's still within what Alicesoft usually did). Go get Dohna Dohna in case you want to play some gameplay VN from Alicesoft, and have fun.
That's all for what I can write at this week, and see you next week.
PS - For the title, since we have Dohna Dohna released I parodied Final Fantasy VII because the plot of Dohna Dohna is quite similar with FF7, in that both have giant corporations as the main enemies and the main party group is the outlaw who fight against the companies along with the MC for both are the second in command of the outlaw groups instead of the leader. As for 'Hustler' part here, the reason is simply because we'll going to sell prostitutes and hustler here is the slang for prostitutes, hence 'Hustler Fantasy VII' for the title. I know that Dohna Dohna here was said to be resembled Persona 5, but it's not really similar though because the group in Persona 5 didn't have giant corporation as the main enemy, the MC is the leader of the group, and more importantly the group didn't involved in physical activities that wrecked the city such as blowing the facilities or kidnapping the girls.
As for this week, obviously this is far more active compared to the last two weeks thanks to Nekonyan did release Karichaimashita and Shiravune announced their next release. Other than those two notable updates, we also have Fakku finally released Abaddon after some drama along with Shiravune did release a dark nukige and Frontwing did announce their next release (It's not Sharin for the info). Of course other than those announcements from official companies we also still has usual fan translation updates, and the most notable one is White Album 2 update. Overall I can say that this week is an exciting one, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week VNTS Review. Almost forgot that I'll tell the meaning of the title at PS later, although I'm sure that you recognized the parody here.
Fakku did indeed manage to release Abaddon on time, although it didn't went smoothly though because Valve decided to randomly throw a tantrum by banned Abaddon. Or rather actually they sort of reasonable this time because Abaddon here is not kind of VN that can be accepted easily on Steam thanks to various disturbing contents, so instead Fakku did ask on why Valve is very late to banned Abaddon as in they just banned it five days (At 14th) before the release (I can only assume that Valve was swamped by a lot of games that they need to reviewed and thus they missed the disturbing contents in Abaddon). In any case, Abaddon is now available on Fakku and Itch.io so you can get the VN if you somewhat interested with it and can try to ignore the disturbing contents (At least I can say that Abaddon here shown a lot of variation for the type of relationship), and have fun. We also have Shiravune did release Saimin Gakushuu back at 22nd, and no much to say other than you can get it if you want to read a nukige with some hypnotism fetish and have fun.
Frontwing did plan to release a VN at this year autumn, although it's not Sharin but instead it's a new VN called Aikagi that Frontwing did teased it with the most obvious hint at their tweet (Translation note: Ai mean love and kagi mean key). Anyway as for Aikagi itself it's a single heroine VN with the MC was somehow live together with his female childhood friend for a while, and it should be obvious that there'll be romance between those two. Well at least the lighting in the VN is good if anything else, and perhaps Frontwing can localize Amakano 2 from same company as Aikagi in the. Oh yes Sekai also have some updates, and for the updates we have Rewrite+ engine work was halfway done (I'm more certain that they won't be able to release it on time at Q4 2021, but I may be not optimist enough here), ReLord 3 was fully edited, and their secret project was fully translated along with 15% edited.
From fan translation we have Harugi was at 34% edited, Mahoyo was at 82% TLC-ed along with 64.88% edited, Senmomo was at 11.95% edited with Chapter 1 was at 70.63% edited, and Eustia was at 93.28% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 64.27% TLC-ed (It should be noted that it's the progress from Excel page of the progress, and the reason for that number even though it's TLC was already completed is because the translator probably didn't have enough time to enter all of the progress into the Excel). Last but not least, White Album 2 Coda was going smoothly with the team was already finished the testing for both Coda's common route and Kazusa's normal route, so all that left is that they'll testing both of Kazusa and Setsuna true routes before finally have it ready for the release. That's all for fan translation updates at this week.
As for the notable update from Shiravune in which it's obviously not Saimin Gakushuu release, it's Dohna Dohna exact release date announcement in which they'll release it at 29th later. Yes Dohna Dohna as in the most recent Alicesoft VN in that they released it back at 2020. Obviously the news is very surprising because as we know Alicesoft here had contract with Mangagamer, but then again if we remember HaremKingdom I suppose it wasn't that surprising. As for Dohna Dohna itself, while granted the graphic is very colorful one should remember that the premise is revolving around a group of friend who focused on selling prostitute with some part of story can be quite offensive for some people, and yes it has the gameplay as well in that one part of it was the aforementioned selling prostitute. Lastly with Dohna Dohna was localized by Shiravune here, perhaps we can expect them to help Alicesoft in regard of Evenicle 2 localization in the future.
Last but not the least, we have Nekonyan released Karichaimashita back at 22nd. As we know it's ASa Project VN in that they have comedic love triangle story back at Sukiren, and thus it's normal if we also have it at Karichaimashita here. As for the premise itself, we have our MC Yuki who is a siscon was persuaded by his little sister to go to university, although Yuki himself has one big money problem. After saw a shady job advertisement that offer a lot of payment, Yuki decided to accept it and turned out that Yuki's work is to having fake relationship with the clients. After that Yuki did work several time, only to find out later that each of his clients has connection with each other and it make Yuki have a hard time to keep it a secret from between his clients and the people around him, with some fake relationship was caused him to be involved in the aforementioned comedic love triangle. Go get the VN from either Steam, Mangagamer, JAST, Fakku, or Denpasoft if you interested and have fun.
That's all for what I can write at this week VNTS Review, and see you next week.
PS - As for the title, it should be obvious that I parodied Kanojo Okarishimasu English title 'Rent-a-Girlfriend' with I changed 'Girlfriend' to 'Boyfriend' for an obvious reason, and the reason is because Karichaimashita has same concept as Kanojo Okarishimasu in that both works has the concept rent the people for having fake relationship (It's really exist in Japan) along with Yuki (Karichaimashita MC) as the one who work on that is obviously male hence the boyfriend word. Also I see some did say that Karichaimashita here is better than Kanojo Okarishimasu here, which perhaps may be not too far off here.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and as for the title since we have Cherry Kiss released Tails & Titties Hot Spring along with JAST released Sweet Sacrifices in which the latter has a lot of sex scenes with tentacles, I decided to parody the former by changing 'Titties' with 'Tentacles' so we have 'Tails & Tentacles Hot Spring' as this week VNTS Review. As for this week, it's more active compared to the last week to say it lightly thanks to Nekonyan's updates. Other than Nekonyan's update, we also have a number of updates from fan translation projects along with a release from Sekai. Overall I can say that this week is still an above average one, although Nekonyan's updates here make this week is slightly more interesting. Let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
As for Cherry Kiss release, it should be good if you like to have sex with beast girl in the hot spring so get the VN if you interested and have fun. JAST released Sweet Sacrifices today, and as for the VN it has two separated stories in which both heroines are quite unfortunate with both of them are sent into the evil demon who obviously more than willingly enjoying both heroines carnally, mostly through the use of the tentacles. In any case, if you want to read nukige with tentacles go get the VN and have fun. Shiravune did announce their next release at 22nd later, although this time it's not either charage or story VN but instead we got a nukige with the focus on hypnotism called Saimin Gakushuu with the premise the lazy MC did hypnotize the female student council president who did slap the MC. Not my type of the VN, but I suppose Shiravune here did need to catch a breath after released the VNs like HaremKingdom and Ninki Seiyuu (Yeah I know HaremKingdom here is technically a nukige).
For fan translation, we have Loverable was at 98.3% translated along with 97.91% edited, Harugi was at 33% edited, the original lines of Summer Pockets were at 87.5% reworked, Senmomo was at 11.44% edited with Chapter 1 was at 67.6% edited, and Taimanin Kurenai was at 55% translated. We also have Eustia's progress in which currently it's been at 93.2% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 63,86% TLC-ed, although actually it's been fully TLC-ed with the remaining progress are programming the lines and the QC so obviously it's still not over yet. For now I hope that it won't take much longer before Eustia full translation patch release. Lastly there's White Album 2 in which turned out that the staffs may not be able to make it for October release thanks to some additional works beside the testing that need to be done before the release, but they still confident that they can release the patch at this year (At either late November or December) so let's see if they can do it later.
Sekai did release Love Duction in which it's more or less a very underrated moege, and the premise is about the MC who've been traumatized by love and yet the alien force him to fall in love. Well at least the graphic is quite good if anything else, so you can get it from Steam if you interested with it and have fun. Sekai also has two more VN that were already fully QA-ed and currently reviewed by Valve, and those two VNs are ReLord Episode 2 and Kimagure Temptation. It should be obvious that those two will be Sekai's next releases, and for now I can only say that hopefully we manage to have those two released in the near future smoothly. Lastly Sekai did update their translation progress on the secret project, and for the progress it's almost fully translated with the status was at 95% translated.
There's a fan translation group that just released the full translation patch for Kamitachi no Yourou remake. From what I search, there's already a translated version of it in that it received Ace Attorney treatment (The localization staffs change the name and the setting place), and the VN itself is one of very well known mystery VN that was released in Japan way back at 1994 for SNES. As for the remake here while it should be obvious that it won't localize the name and the place, it has new graphic courtesy of Sharin and G-Senjou character designer along with the revamped soundtrack and the new scenario that was written by Ryukishi07 (Higurashi and Umineko writer for the reminder). I don't know much on how good this old VN would be compared to the newer VN, but if you interested feel free to try it. Oh yes, while the translation of this is basically completed, the translator did classify this as public beta patch because they didn't have enough time to find the bug so they expected the readers to find out the bugs and report it to them.
As for Nekonyan's update, it's quite a number here with the most notable one is Hello Lady update in which finally they managed to finished the engine work and moved on to continuing the QA, in which currently it was at 65% QA in QA. Speaking of QA two of the other Nekonyan's projects are also already in QA progress, and those two projects in questions are Cafe Stella (10% in QA along with the translation and editing progress were at 85%) and Clover Days (5% in QA). Speaking of the latter, Nekonyan decided to remove the release estimation year in which previously it'll be at this year because they're not sure if they can release it on time (Well good luck with their work on Clover Days there). For the rest of the updates, we have Nekonyan about to start the porting work on Dracu Riot, Mirai Radio was at 98% edited, Melty Moment was at three quarter translated, and Aoi Tori was at three quarter translated along with a quarter edited. They also have updates for two secret projects, and the updates goes like the first was at three quarter edited while third was at three quarter translated.
That's all for what I can write in regard of this week, and see you next week.
For this week VNTS Review title since we have Ninki Seiyuu released and that the opening song was sang by Eri Sendai (Who also voiced one of the heroine in Ninki Seiyuu), I decided to parodied one of her song that was sang by her. I'll elaborate more on the title more at PS later, although perhaps you can guess what I parodied from the title alone (It's one of Precure vocal song in case you need an answer). As for this week, well Shiravune did release Ninki Seiyuu so at least this week is still interesting to a degree. That said though, my attention is also going to a new title that Harukaze was announced for the overseas release and the updates from Snow translation team. Overall once again this week here is above average one as well even though there's no much updates from official localization companies yet, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
Sekai did announce that they'll release Love Duction at 15th later, and I can only say that good for Sekai that they slightly lighten their backlog burden. As for Harukaze new announced title, it's Monkeys in which they tried to do what Ensemble did with trap heroine that was voiced by female. Looking from the number of heroines (Four heroines), it seem that they want to do a charage with four routes so it should be obvious that the price would be the full price in Japan. As for me, while I know that Harukaze did blunder by released console version of Noraneko duology for the overseas (In which it's basically censored the sex scenes for overseas), I believe that they may consider to release it with the sex scenes. Or rather actually they can ask for Shiravune's help again in regard of localizing this, although it seems that they decided to localize it by themselves (Still hoping that they didn't repeat what they did with Noraneko duology). In any case, let's wait and see in regard of this later on because currently there's no much information other than they also planned Chinese language release as well.
As we know Shiravune did release Ninki Seiyuu back at 8th, although for now it's only at Johren though so you need to deal with Denuvo if you purchased it. That said since I said 'for now' it mean that Shiravune already prepared the second store to buy this, and yeah they'll have released it at Steam on 14th later (The link to the store) although they cut one route though. As for the removed route, I assume that it might be the blood related little sister route and Valve probably did ask Shiravune to remove the route as the prerequisite to sell Ninki Seiyuu on Steam. No need to worry about the removed route though, because Shiravune will also provide 18+ patch that will restored the removed route as well. For Ninki Seiyuu itself, once again it's about the MC who work part time at seiyuu agency and that he'll have the romance with one of the three heroines including the seiyuu in the agency and the aforementioned blood related little sister. Go get Ninki seiyuu from either at Johren or Steam later if you interested with this, and have fun.
From fan translation, this week we have Harugi was at 31% edited, Senmomo was at 10.29% edited with Chapter 1 was at 60.78% edited, and Taimanin Kurenai was at halfway translated. For the updates from Snow translation team, we have Konosora Snow Present was at 23% translated, the sex scenes from Hikari and Saya's routes of Miagete are in progress of restoration (By the way the hardest progress here would be inserting the translated lines), and for Snow itself currently two routes (Asahi and Ouka) was at between 40% to halfway translated. For the last one, actually it's more like that the translator already technically translate 93% of Ouka's route and about to translate Asahi's route, but the translator here did find out that the additional part of Ouka's route can only be accessed by either at the second playthrough or after finished a certain route, and so he said that he's only technically halfway done with Touka's route (The tweet in regard of that).
Lastly for fan translation progress we have Eustia was at 93.05% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 63.04% TLC-ed, although this time there's more to talk in regard of that. As for the talk, it's about the real progress of Eustia's TLC in which at Reddit the TLC person did say that the real progress of it was at 95.53% TLC-ed with him already finished TLC-ed 5 out of 13 remaining files (The source), and with that it mean basically Licia's route chapter here was already past three quarter (From what I calculated based on the real TLC progress, and the result is at 76.24% TLC-ed). The person also said that he may finish the whole process by the next week if they can keep his current pace (The source), although it's still remain to see though. In the end while I like the real progress of Eustia here, I'll still use the one from Excel for now.
That's all for what I can write in regard of this week, and see you next week.
PS - For more elaboration of the title, the song that I parodied is 'Milk・Miracle・Milky Legend' in which it's Eri Sendai's character (Milk/Kurumi) image song from YPC5GG. For the parody I changed 'Milk' into 'Itsumi' because Eri Sendai did voice Itsumi in Ninki Seiyuu, and I changed 'Miracle' into 'Mirai' because the name of Ninki Seiyuu opening song is 'Niji-iro Mirai'. Actually there's one more reason in regard of the latter, in which Toei did create a character named Mirai who is a Precure from MGPC with her Cure name is Cure Miracle which to say quite a coincidence.
As for this week VNTS Review since we have Shiravune announce the exact release date for Ninki Seiyuu and that it's another VN with the focus on the VA (Translation Notes: Seiyuu mean VA), I decided to parodied another anime that depict the behind the scene for seiyuu 'Gi(a)rlish Number' (Coincidentally both Gi(a)rlish Number and Ninki Seiyuu has same situation) in that I changed 'Number' into 'Pop' so we have 'Gi(a)rlish Pop' as this week VNTS Review title (The word 'Pop' is from the localized title of Ninki Seiyuu). Anyway welcome to this week VNTS Review and as for this week, well I guess I can say that this week is not too bad with a numerous update from fan translation and the aforementioned announcement from Shiravune along with Mangagamer. So yeah this week is more or less a slightly above average one, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
Mangagamer did release Namaiki back at September 30th, so you can get that if you interested with three dark elves sisters are having sex with their illegitimate own brother for the sake of glory and have fun. Of course as per usual Mangagamer reveal their next release, and in this case it's Moonstone VN Love Sweets in that they'll release it at 28th later. By the way with their two releases, I suppose Mangagamer here want to clear their backlog from Otakon first so if my guess right they'll release either Seventh Lair or Erovoice after they released Love Sweets, although of course I might be wrong here. We also have Fault 2 Milestone Below release was apparently delayed, although perhaps they still need some more time to do some finishing touch there before finally ready to release it. Speaking of delay, there's also Zero Chastity in that Fakku delay the release because the problem at their site so hopefully Fakku can fix the site in the near future.
This week we also have Cherry Kiss announced their nukige with the title 'Tails and Tities Hot Spring' that will be released at 11th later so you may note the date if you want more nukige from them, especially if you like to have sex with four beast girl at the hot spring. We also have one more release with the title My Dear Frankenstein, and from what I can see it's apparently the adaptation of novel Frankenstein. In regard of that, I can only say you can get that if you interested with it and have fun. Almost forget to note that JAST did plan to release Slow Damage at 2022 beginning at JAST Blue's tweet, so let's see if they can do that later (Although with their current pace I'm sure they can do it).
I did forget to mention that Akagoei still has some progress there, so let me mention that the team still do the editing and QA work for all of the other routes beside common and Aya's. We also have update in regard of Onee-chan no Yuuwaku, and currently it's been at 60% translated along with 30% edited. We also finally have Yosuga no Sora translation team started to work on the fandisc of it (Haruka na Sora), and for the current progress so far we have Sora's route (Or rather her after story) at 9% translated. For the rest of the update, we have Chaos Head Noah was at 10.64% edited, Harugi was at 30% edited, Loverable was at 98.29% translated along with 97.79% edited, Shin Koihime Musou was halfway edited, Taimanin Kurenai was at 40% translated, and Senmomo was at 9.67 edited with Chapter 1 was at 57.15% edited. Last but not the least, we have White Album 2 translation team did finish playtesting for two routes (Mari and Setsuna), which mean they finished playtesting the whole Closing Chapter and after that they obviously move on to do playtest on Coda which mean the release time is almost there.
For Shiravune's next release it's the afoementioned Ninki Seiyuu, and yes they already announced the exact date of it in which they'll release it at 8th (ie four days later). As for the premise, like I say earlier it's about the behind the scene of VA in that the MC is the part timer worker at seiyuu agency who manage to work in the agency thanks to the MC old friend is seiyuu agency manager, and that our MC will see the work of the female seiyuu who one way or another will have the romance with him. I don't know on how good this VN will be, although if anything else at least the graphic is quite nice and it's good that Shiravune finally manage to release one of CUBE's VNs (I wonder though when they'll finish the promised improved Your Diary translation, but I guess it's their lowest priority so oh well) so I'm content with it for now.
That's all for what I can write in regard of this week, and see you next week.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and for the title I just combined 'Harem' from HaremKingdom along with 'Nursery' from Nursery Rhyme so we have 'Harem Nursery' as this week VNTS Review title (It should goes without saying that I didn't mean to review the painting 'Nursery in the Harem' that was painted by Vincent Stiepevich). As for this week, we have some news other than the obvious HaremKingdom release by Shiravune, in that one of the notable news is the updates from Sekai in that they have several of their projects are already at QA stage. Of course we also have some usual updates from fan translation, particularly Nursery Rhyme, and that we have Idea Factory did announce their next otome VN. Overall I can say that this week is still quite interesting to a degree, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
Fakku did announce that they'll release Abaddon at October 19th later along with them already having Zero Chastity ready for the release, in that I can only say good luck to them to make sure that they can make sure Abaddon will be released on time. As for otome VN that announced by Idea Factory, it's Cupid Parasite in that it's only for Switch and will be released at November 2nd later. The premise is about a female MC who more or less is a cupid who assigned to pair single men, and from there our MC will do her best even though it looks hard seeing that the men are more or less quite hopeless when it come to romance. Other than that, I can only say that the graphic is quite bright looking from the CG samples. Anyway you can note the release date in case you interested with this and have Switch.
As for fan translation, the most notable update is from Nursery Rhyme in that it's been fully edited and currently the translator working to inserting the text into the VN. That said, it's still a while though before the release because the translator want to make sure that the patch would be free from bug and error along with making sure that it was near perfect. Other than Nursery Rhyme, we obviously have some more updates as well, in that we have Senmomo was at 8.54% edited with Chapter 1 was past halfway (50.44%) edited, Taimanin Kurenai was at 35% proofread which mean that the translator obviously should continue his translation work, Harugi was at 28% edited, and Eustia was at 93% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 62.78% TLC-ed.
For Sekai's updates, like I say earlier some of those are focused on the QA progress. For more detail, some of the projects that reported the QA progress are Rewrite+ (At halfway in QA), Drapri 2 (At three quarter in QA), and Amatsutsumi (Also at three quarter in QA). Other than QA updates, we also have Amairo Chocolata 2 was at 65% translated, Love Duction engine work was almost finished at 99% done, and Yumeiro was at a quarter translated. What I can say is that while granted it's good to see Amatsutsumi QA was raised up significantly, I guess we may not have it released at this year yet seeing that the engine work for it was still at 80% done (For comparison, both of Kimagure and ReLord 2 engine work were already 90% done with the aforementioned Love Duction was already 99% done) so perhaps we may need to wait for a while here before Amatsutsumi release.
The big release for this week is obviously HaremKingdom, and as we know it's Smee VN which mean obviously we should expect comedy along with the romance, although this time Smee did add harem and isekai trope. As for the premise, our nameless MC came to the other world together with his best friend Hikari, and somehow the MC was the true successor of a king from the kingdom in the other world. Other than being a king, suddenly the MC got several new future wives along with Hikari herself eager to join the harem which to the MC himself is quite a predicament seeing that he has traumatic past with woman. Obviously he has no choice here, so what the MC can do is that he did their best to going through the situation and get used to it. I know that HaremKingdom is technically isekai nukige here, but it's a Smee VN as well so at least it should be interesting if you want more Smee moege VN. Anyway go get HaremKingdom if you interested with it, and have fun.
That's all for this week VNTS Review, and see you next week.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and as for this week because we have Shiravune released 'Onmyoji in the Otherworld: Sayaka's Story' I decided to parodied Alicesoft Beat series because the similarities of both VN when it come to the main heroine got the power (Through sex), so we have 'Beat Diviner Sayaka' as this week VNTS Review title (For a bit of translation note, in Sengoku Rance Onmyoji was translated as 'Diviner' in the older translation while Arunaru keep it as 'Onmyoji' for Mangagamer version). Back to the review, and what I can say is that at least Shiravune here did deliver an interesting news in which obviously ironically it's not their release. Other than that, we have quite a number of the updates from fan translation and of course from Nekonyan as well. Overall this week itself is quite interesting because of the number of the updates, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
If you like BL VN with trap heroines, there's Trap Genesis that was released back at 17th. I only know it's the last part of the trilogy that was started from Trap Shrine, and that this time there's only a single 'heroine'. In case you interested with it, then go get it and have fun. For Shiravune's release, the premise is about a miko who got a responsibility to fight the monster that invade the city and the only way for her to gain the power to do it is through the sex like Beat series. Other things to note are it's gameplay VN, there'll be Steam release at 22nd tomorrow, and that the staffs themselves are quite well known with Hello Lady Writer along with Dies Irae composer and artist even though it won't show in Sayaka here. At least this time we can have Debonosu VN localized with sex scenes intact unlike Sorakumo in that the sex scenes of it was removed for overseas release. Go get Sayaka if you interested with it, and have fun.
For the usual fan translation updates recap, we have Taimanin Kurenai was at 30% proofread, Loverable was at 97.56% edited, Chiccakunai Mon was at 83.9% translated, Harugi was at 27% edited, White Album 2 Chiaki's route are fully playtested, and Senmomo was at 8.02% edited with Chapter 1 was at 47.37% edited. We also finally have Eustia's update after three weeks of absence with the current progress was at 92.88% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 62.17% TLC-ed. For other updates, we have Nagomibako was already had some editing work with current progress is that we have 41 out of 138 script files of it was edited, and Maji Translation did translate Tae's route halfway which mean that they finally working on Majikoi A-5. We also have Daybreak Translation did translate Onee-chan no Yuuwaku (A nukige with big sister heroine), and currently the translator manage to translate roughly halfway of it. Lastly there's Mahoyo update in that I'll keep my eyes on it from now on, and currently it's been fully translated along with 80.45% TLC-ed and 64.40% edited.
As promised I'll talk about Nekonyan's updates here. As for the updates, we have Aoi Tori was at 70% translated along with them starting the editing work with the current progress was at 20% edited, Cafe Stella was at both 80% translated and edited, Golden Time was at a quarter translated, Makeover FD was fully translated, Mirai Radio was at 90% edited, 1st secret project was fully translated along with halfway edited, and 3rd secret was at past halfway (55%) translated. Lastly have Nekonyan did announce their next release, and it's Karichaimashita with the exact release date at October 22nd later. If you want to know the progress of Karichaimashita, it's been at 80% in QA. We also have Ninetail do the update for Hollow at their Kickstarter update in that it's been at fully translated, in which while it sounds redundant with the exact release date available at least Ninetail here cares for anyone else who want to know the progress of it.
About the interesting news from Shiravune that I said earlier, it's their new VN that will be released at 24th later. The VN in question is Harem Kingdom in which it's Smee VN, and in turn that apparently Smee here is quite flexible because people did predict that Nekonyan will localize this sooner or later. Then again with Chihiro Himukai was released by Shiravune I guess it's logical that the writer did ask DMM to localized another of his VN, and for the info Chihiro Himukai here is not Smee VN. Obviously with DMM it mean that it has some controversy such as the customer will need to deal with Denuvo DRM (Because so far there's no plan to release it on Steam) and mosaic. While the former is understandably annoying, for the latter I just think that it's pointless to be angry about it. I'll tell more about the VN later, and let's just say that I've been looking forward to this isekai VN even though technically it's a nukige.
That's all for this week VNTS Review, and see you next week.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and since we have Axanael officially started the translation with sizeable progress along with the VN has the variation of Russian Roulette game called Kagome Games, I make a parody of Russian Roulette so we have 'Kagome Roulette' as this week VNTS Review. As for this week, we have a number of significant updates when it come to fan translation such as the aforementioned Axanael or Akagoei, while at the same time there's no much update from official side other than the releases of those two underrated VNs (I know that Nekonyan give us interesting updates at this morning, but I'll save those updates for the next week). Overall I can say that this week is more interesting because it has more activities, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
Cherry Kiss released their elf nukige back at 10th, and no much to say other than go play it if you've been interested with it and have fun. The second official release is Olympie Soiree back at 9th in which it has more interesting story, although too bad that there's no PC version of it because Aksys only release it for Switch (Aksys really need to releases their otome VN in Steam so that the player who only have PC can play it as well). For the reminder the premise is about the female MC from a rare color and thus she need to marry one of six heroes in order to have the descendant to continue the color so that the color didn't die out, and yeah there's also the matter of the setting in that the color is more important than a life. In any case, if you want to see more of the story and have Switch then you can try it and have fun.
For the roundup of fan translation updates, we have Chiccakunai Mon was at 82.5% translated, Harugi was at 24% edited, Shin Koihime Musou was at 49% edited, and Taimanin Kurenai was at 20% proofread. I didn't mention this back at last week, so let me mention that since White Album 2 was already in playtesting stage it should goes without saying that the editing for all parts (Including Coda) is already finished, and it mean that all that left is the playtest before it finally ready for the release. We also have Senmomo had the spreadsheet to show their editing progress (The link to the spreadsheet), and for the current progress its's been at 6.1% edited with the Chapter 1 was at 36.05% edited. They also have plan to release the trial patch at this year's end in order to clear suspicion about Senmomo was MTL-ed, so good luck to them in regard of that.
There's a good news for Akagoei fans, and it's that the translator finally finished the translation for the whole VN and that he released the patch that cover Aya's route as well in which it only cover her route seeing that currently only that route was already finished all of the process (Including editing and QA). Since Akagoei here designed as the trilogy, it's only natural that one should play the FD as well. Thus our translator here already translated two routes of the FD, and he already finished both of common and Reika/Kyouka After with him currently preparing to work on Tae After. So yeah you'll need to wait for a while in order to play the whole trilogy in English, but at least you can play the first part in the near future (You can also try to play Aya's route first and here's the download link for the patch).
As for Axanael, I admit that I didn't see that the translator can continuing it seeing that there's several trial releases that ended up didn't have the full game translated. Of course turned out that my prediction is wrong because we see some good progress on Axanael with the translator did gather some very well known helper, with two of the helper did work on Committee of Zero and both of them work on the engine and image work to put it simply. Oh yes as for the progress currently it has been at 30% translated with common route was already fully translated along with the team already translate a quarter of route A. For the info, Axanael here has quite an unique route system with the routes were called A, B, and C, and the next plan is that they'll translate the rest of two routes in alphabetical order after route A translation is completed (You can read more on the translator's Tweet thread here). Lastly I'll say good luck to the translation team of Axanael there.
That's all for this week VNTS Review, and see you next week.
Since we have White Album 2 translation project and Amayui Labyrinth Meister interface patch released, I decided to parodied this sport documentary movie title (The White Maze) so we have 'The White Labyrinth' as this week VNTS Review title (And it would be still fitting for the movie title anyway seeing that 'labyrinth' is the synonym for 'maze'). Welcome to this week and as for this week, plain is a way to say it nicely and quite dry would be a blunt way to say it. That said, perhaps we can say that it's a breather after big release (ie Muramasa) at the last week, although it didn't mean that there's nothing to talk about here because we still have some updates from fan translation and JAST did teased about their new six licenses (If anything else, at least fan translation updates here is more than make up for this plain week). Let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well
Cherry Kiss did plan to release their license at 10th later. You should know what type of the VN that they'll release, in that it's yet another nukige and the premise is there's an arrogant elf who forcefully transferred into the real world and our MC did a good job to make the elf as his slave so much that the elf become masochist (It's in the title duh). We also have one sudden release of an old VN (Or rather old adventure game) with the name Mirrors, and by old I mean it's 31 years old VN (Released at 1990) and can only be played in modern computer through the use of emulator (It's for PC-88). The premise is we have our musician MC was haunted by terrible nightmare which is he was stalked by someone who want to kill him in the dream, so naturally we'll help the MC to solve his own problem in that it'll lead to multiple ending. Well go get Mirrors if you're in the mood to play an adventure game from 1990 (The link for patch download), and have fun.
We have quite a number of updates from fan translation, so let's round up the updates here. For the updates, we have Chaos Head Noah common route was at 99.21% translated in which it bring the overall was at 99.43% translated along with 20.31% TLC-ed, Chiccakunai Mon was at 81.3% translated along with 6.5% passed the first editing, Loverable was at 97.41% edited, Harugi was at 23% edited, and the editing work on Taimanin Kurenai was stopped in order to do some proofreading on with the current progress is that he's already done 10% of it. As promised I'll talk about Sukiuso progress in which it has significant progress in which it's been at past halfway (59%) translated along with 5% TLC-ed and 2% edited, and the team did aim to release this at mid 2022 later. Other than those updates, there's also some big updates from Axanael and Akagoei although like Sukiuso at last week I'll save those two updates for my next VNTS Review. Lastly there's some update on White Album 2 playtesting with one Closing Chapter route (Koharu) was finished playtesting, and the team might need to work until November to received the reports on playtesting results.
Lastly we have JAST sort of teased us about the six new licenses at their tweet. While in the past I'm sort of feeling complicated because their slow release pace, right now I would say that I look forward to what kind of the licenses that they have seeing that they've been improving the release pace compared to a year ago (As in their release pace can suddenly rival Mangagamer in this year) and one of those might be interesting title. Anyway I did assume that one of the license might be Flowers Hiver, although seeing that JAST did try to keep the new licenses secret and that they already sort of reveal they've been working on Flowers Hiver safe to say that the new licenses might not included Flowers Hiver. In any case, perhaps one of the license might be Tokyo Necro if one want to be hopeful seeing that JAST manage to release two big Nitroplus title in recent years (Kimikoi and Muramasa).
That's all for this week VNTS Review and sorry if it's been quite short. See you next week.
Since we have both of Muramasa and Parquet was released at this week, I decided to make this week VNTS Review title as 'Full Metal Gorilla'. As for the reason 'Full Metal' here is should be obvious in that it's Muramasa translated full title (Full Metal Daemon Muramasa), while for 'Gorilla' it's because we have Touyama Nao voicing Parquet heroine and for the info she also voiced Chitoge at Nisekoi anime in that Chitoge got the nickname 'Gorilla'. As for this week, the most obvious biggest release here would be Muramasa in which it's one of very well received VN that many did wish for it to be translated. Other than Muramasa, we also have Nekonyan released Parquet and Mangagamer did release Uchikano as well, so overall this week is quite a big one if we talk from the number of the release. Let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
We also have Sayooshi full English translation patch in which it's very surprising because it's from the new translator instead of the old one. The thing is though the translation was quite rough, and that the translator did delete the patch so that there's no way to get Sayooshi in English by using that patch (Although considering that it's release date was at 28th and that it took a day to be deleted safe to say that the patch was already spread through one way or another). Sayooshi itself is a denpa VN that said to have good atmosphere in that it'll featured a teacher MC who suffer some pressure when it come to become a good teacher because he find himself lusting to his female student, and from what I see apparently whether the MC can be said to be sympathetic or not is quite questionable to a degree. Anyway I can only say that you may check Sayooshi translation if you can somehow get it and curious whether the translation is really acceptable or not, although seeing that the translator decided to move on from this perhaps you should read this with caution.
Mangagamer did released Uchikano back at 26th, and as usual they announced their next release in which they'll release Namaiki at September 30th later. I can only say it should be obvious that Mangagamer next release is not Sona-Nyl, but at least it should be good VN to look forward if one want to have three siblings of dark elves have sex with the MC who is basically their illegimate brother. Back to Uchikano, the premise of is that we'll have the MC who is the office worker somehow get to live together with his (Female) childhood friend who is about to graduate from the high school, and from there both of MC and his childhood friend will have some romance along with some sex scenes (Duh). Go get Uchikano if you're in the mood of reading some VN that feature single heroine (It seems that recently there's a lot of this kind of VNs getting translated), and have fun. Oh yes there's still no info whether Mangagamer will license the rest of Uchi series or not, but seeing that Sekai manage to get Seiiki trilogy license perhaps it's only matter of time to see Mangagamer license the rest of Uchi series.
Speaking of Sekai, this week we also have them give the updates for their project, with the biggest one is that they manage to get Rewrite+ fully translated and edited which make sense seeing that they already set the Steam store for it and that they'll try to release it at Q4 2021 later (I'm not sure that they can do it, but still good luck to them in regard of that). For the rest of the updates, we have Kimagure was at three quarter in QA, Amairo Chocolata 2 was halfway translated, ReLord 3 was at 95% edited, Slobbish Dragon Princess 2 was fully edited, Yumeiro was at 12% translated, and Amatsutsumi was at a quarter in QA. Lastly we also have Sekai did update their secret project with the current progress was at 45% translated, and from how fast the translation work on this is perhaps the VN itself would be a short one (It would be nice if it's Nine Shinshou seeing that Palette did goes all out to make it all age in which I assume that they preparing to sell it on Steam).
Sayooshi controversy aside, we have several updates from fan translation as well. As for the updates, we have Moe's route of Akagoei was fully translated and therefore the next route that was currently being worked on was Tsuki's route, Loverable was at 96.87% edited, Sumino's route of Snow was fully translated and the translator will translate Ouka's route next, and Taimanin Kurenai was at 35% edited. Other than those updates, we also have ZAP released the interface patch for Amayui Labyrinth Meister back at 20th so you can understand the gameplay of it if you've been wanting to play the newest Eushully's VN there. I know that there's an update in regard of Sukiuso from Kakugo translation, but I'll save the talk of it for next VNTS Review.
We have Nekonyan did release Parquet, and as we know it's the very first Yuzusoft all age VN that they made by themselves so obviously you shouldn't worried about the censored sex scenes in case anyone wonder. For the premise we have our MC who is a blank slate that involved in an illegal experiment that uploaded a lot of memories into his brain in order to create a new being. Obviously he has a lot of confusion toward his own identity thanks to the experiment, so he decided to set himself to search his own true self. On his first step, he met two girls (The heroines) who also the victims of the experiment and from there the MC befriended two girls. While the premise sounds serious with uploading memories into brain in order to make a new being and all, in the end it's still Yuzusoft VN so of course you should enjoy the character interaction and comedy (No sex scenes for obvious reason). Go get Parquet if you want to try it or want more Yuzusoft VNs, and have fun.
As we know the biggest release at this week is Muramasa in which we finally have JAST released it back at 25th after they teased it since way back at 2012. Muramasa itself is one of very well received VNs that said to have a lot of thought provoking theme, although whether it's true or not is depend on each other (At least late Conjueror think like that). In Muramasa we have Kageaki who is work as policeman that solve the cases, and he has a goal to kill a certain person for the revenge. It should be noted that the arc word of this VN is 'This is not a hero's story' and therefore Kageaki here is more or less like Sayooshi's MC in that whether he's sympathetic or not can be quite questionable to a degree because of his actions to reach the goals can be said as quite awful to say it lightly. Oh and don't forget that there'll be a lot of death, which make sense considering that it share same writer as Hanachirasu that also has a lot of death. Get Muramasa if you're curious on whether the good score is justified or not and want to find out about that, and have fun.
That's all for this week VNTS Review, and see you next week.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and for the info this is not my review on new Valkyrie Profile game but instead I combined both of Walkure Romanze and Venus Blood Hollow for the title, so we have Valkyrie Profile Hollow as this week VNTS Review title (For the info 'Walkure' is Germany (And Japanese as well) word for Valkyrie). As for this week, well I can say that this week we didn't have many update from the official companies but instead we have more updates from fan translation. That said, we still have two interesting updates though in which the updates in question are Venus Blood Hollow exact release date along with the sudden release of Walkure Romanze common route patch, although in the end this week is still quite plain to a degree though. Anyway let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
Cherry Kiss did released their nukige back at 20th, and for the reminder it's about the hero who somehow need to help the demon king that he was defeated beforehand because the demon king himself turned into female because of a spell. Since this is nukige, naturally the way of hero helping the demon king is through sex in which turned out that it has some effect of lessening the effect of the spell. Go get the nukige if you want to see the process of the hero help the demon king to overcome her problem, and have fun. Oh yes we also have Shiravune did release Honey*Honey*Honey on Steam today after three days delay thanks to Steam reviewer review it longer than usual, and you can get the VN from Steam if you have the problem of getting the VN from Johren thanks to DRM Denuvo that DMM applied at Johren.
As for fan translation updates at this week, we have Eustia was at 92.59% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was reached 60% mark (60.61%) TLC-ed, Taimanin Kurenai was at 30% edited, 87.2% original lines of Summer Pockets (Past 60,000 (60,124) lines mark) was reworked, and Chiccakunai Mon was at 80.1% translated. We also have Loverable update, although the update is quite questionable because the progress of the translation was regressed from fully translated to 98.11% translated and yet the editing progress here had a slight update with the current progress was at 96.18% edited. I guess the regression of the translation progress was because of recounting some of translated lines there, and in any case here's hoping for this five years old project to finally reach the conclusion at this year.
We also have White Album 2 progress, and the current progress is that they did some playtesting with the Introductory Chapter was already done and currently it's been at common route of Closing Chapter. As for the release plan, it'll be at Autumn later so let's see if the team can really release the full translation patch of White Album 2 later if all is going well. Senmomo editing also going well, and currently the editor was almost done with the first script file in which it contain ~20% of Chapter 1. The translator also acknowledged that what he did by not releasing the scripts file immediately can cause some suspicion that he did MTL (Especially when he also said that he's been working on this at 16 hours per day which to say is almost impossible for normal human), and therefore he ask us to wait until the trial patch is released later. I'll look forward to see the trial patch later, and I hope that the patch release can clear the doubt whether the translation is really MTL or not (I can't really say whether it's true that Senmomo is MTL or not, because both opinions has enough circumstantial evidences to support those).
One of 4chan member did suddenly released the translation patch for Walkure Romanze (The post in regard of that), although unfortunately it only cover the common route so if you want to play the girls routes you need to wait for a while (The translator did say that he'll translate the heroines routes as well). I did some searching, and turned out that we have Walkure Romanze translation project way back at 2012, although of course nowadays the translator himself was already disappear or dropped the project seeing that there's no more updates from him (Duh). Back to the new project, as for the patch it also has a choice of whether you want to use honorific or not in which turned out that a lot of people have problem whether the translation keep the honorific or localized it (I don't really care much about it to be honest). Anyway good luck to the translator in regard of the project and I hope I can see full translation patch of Walkure Romanze.
Lastly we really have Ninetail announced the exact release date of Venus Blood Hollow as Keimaru (Venus Blood director for the reminder) said, and it'll be at November 26th later which to say is faster than the target (For the info the target is at December later), and the reason is that they think it's safer if they moved up the release date in order to ensure that the physical edition can be delivered by November end or within December thanks to pandemic. Other than the exact release date announcement in which it's obviously very important, we also have Ninetail said that they already consider some of fans who request the translation of mini fandisc of Venus Blood (The extra VNs that featured one heroine in a sex scene), and for that matter they said that they'll do mini crowdfund if they already decided to do that. Lastly, I look forward to Hollow release at November 26th later.
That's all for this week VNTS Review, and see you next week.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and as for this week I'll tell it at PS later. As for this week, we have a lot of updates seeing that both of Mangagamer and Aksys did announce their new licenses along with both of Nekonyan and Sekai did update some of their VNs. On the other hand though, compared to the last week there's no much releases so I suppose it balanced out. Overall once again this week is quite exciting to a degree because of a number new VNs announcements, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
We have Shiravune released Honey*Honey*Honey at 6th (They're really aggressive when it come to VN releases), and the premise is quite unique with both of male and female must do social distancing thanks to sexual harassment countermeasures regulation that was strictly regulated by the government so much that the date need authorization. Although obviously it's more or less just a setting seeing that we obviously we'll see on how the MC will getting closer to the three heroines, and nothing can stop the blossoming love. I also should take some special note to the art in which it resemble both of Noraneko and Marco, which make sense because both VNs and Honey*Honey*Honey artist are the same (And this time Harukaze didn't interfere with their censorship policy, so you can play it with the sex scenes). Go get the VN if you want more VN with the art that resemble Noraneko, and have fun.
Sekai has another updates from their licenses here, although it's limited to their Kickstarter updates. As for the updates, we have Hoshimemo HD build is undergoing QA, Eternal Heart was fully edited and about to do some programming work, Daybreak undergoing another round of QA before going to submit the build to Valve in order for them to review it, and Morning Mist undergoing the first QA. While it's nice that we got some Tokeijikake updates, the waiting between the prequel and sequel is too long that it's possible anyone who've been looking forward to the sequel already lost some interest. In any case, for now I just hope that Sekai can released the rest of Tokeijikake trilogy in the near future. Speaking of Kickstarter, we have Frontwing fixing halfway of the problem that caused the release of Sharin to be delayed, and I should say that I prefer Frontwing to not announce any updates (And no, make it as backer only won't count) until they're really absolutely ready to release it in the first place (Including checking whether the server in the good condition or not before announcing the exact release date).
From fan translation we have Chaos Head Noah was almost fully translated with overall was at 99.23% translated with the common route was at 98.93% translated along with 18.79% TLC-ed and 10.35% edited, and it should goes without saying that the team would continue with TLC and editing works. For the other update, we have Harugi was at 21% edited, 86.5% original line of Summer Pockets was reworked, and Taimainin Kurenai was at 20% edited. Cherry Kiss was suddenly announced another nukige (Localized name Genderbend Me! Sayonara Demon Dong), and the premise of the nukige is that the hero somehow ended up with genderbent demon lord who going from beautiful man transformed into beautiful lady. Since this is nukige, obviously the hero will help the demon lord to become male again through a certain mean. This time Cherry Kiss didn't announce the estimation release time, so we should wait for them to announce it later.
Aksys did have announce their new VNs, and all of those are otome VNs. As for the new announcements, all of those new VNs will be released in 2022 so you must wait for a while in case you want to play the VN in question, and it's only available on Switch so you must own the console as well if you want to play it. Those VNs are Piofiore Episodio 1926 (The sequel/FD of Piofiore), Lover Pretend, Kimi wa Yukima ni Koinegau, and Paradigm Paradise (This would be most interesting otome VN announcement to me because it has magical girl as the MC and that the heroes can genderbent into magical girl to help the MC lol). For additional info, Aksys already announced Variable Barricade (By the way Aksys should promote that the MC of this VN was voiced by Hatsune Miku's VA (Fujita Saki) lol) will be released at February 2022 later, and that Aksys will be released Ayakashimori at December 2nd later.
For Mangagamer's announcements at Otakon, let's just say that it's not what I expect to be although perhaps I may expect too much here. The announcements are Erovoice (Remind me of Sore ga Seiyuu! anime in that it also deal with the behind the scene for seiyuu, although Erovoice is obviously about eroge seiyuu), Seventh Lair (From Novectale and let's just say that it's quite awkward to see Fata Morgana characters with the story is supposed to be different), Namaiki (It's dark elves nukige), and Love Sweets (I guess Moonstone decided to go back to Mangagamer to localize it after they realized that doing it by themselves is quite difficult for them). Forgot to say that Mangagamer also has some updates, and for the updates we have all four new announcements were fully translated and edited, Rance IX was at 87.5% edited, and they'd announce that they'll release Uchikano at 26th later. For secret project updates, we have 11th project was past halfway for both translation and editing work (53% and 50% respectively) and 12th was fully translated along with three quarter edited, and they'd reveal 6th and 10th projects as Erovoice and Namaiki respectively.
Nekonyan have some updates here, and for the updates we have Aoi Tori was at 60% translated, Cafe Stella was at 70% translated and edited, Makeover FD was at 89% translated, Mirai Radio was at 85% edited (Speaking of Laplacian, turned out that there's some group who decided to restore the sex scene for Aojashin overseas releases because Laplacian decided to not translate the sex scenes (The project page) with the current progress was at 5.1% translated), Karichaimashita was at 40% in QA, and their first secret project was at 40% edited. Nekonyan also add two more updates at this morning, and the updates in question are that they already worked on Golden Time (Kirikoi FD for the reminder) with the progress was at 15% translated along with them add one more secret project (Third secret project) with the progress for new secret project was at 30% translated.
That's all for what I can write in regard of this week, and see you next week.
PS - Since I remeber of Sore ga Seiyuu! anime when I see Erovoice and that we have blood related little sister heroine in Love Sweets, I just parodied the Sore ga Seiyuu! by changing 'Seiyuu' into 'Imouto' (Translator's Note: Imouto mean little sister) so we have 'Sore ga Imouto!' as this week VNTS Review.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and as we can see this week is quite big with several companies decided to do several releases at once so obviously this week is quite exciting here. Other than releases, of course there's also some updates as well along with Nekonyan's new planned release (Even though it's not as interesting as their usual planned releases). Let's see what I can write in regard of this week here, and I'll tell the reason for the title at PS later even though it should be obvious.
Yuzusoft asked Sakura Miko (The virtual Youtuber for the reminder) to do some stream for them, and through the stream they did reveal that they made a new all age brand (Yuzusoft Sour) along with the new title from said brand (Parquet). Since Yuzusoft already shown their interest to bring their title to overseas back when they made Cafe Stella if we look at the English subtitle, it's normal to see them bring Parquet to English and Nekonyan as their usual partner will released it at 27th later. I see that some people conflicted over Yuzusoft decision to going all age, and what I can say is that it's fine if they're going to try all age market VNs as long as they didn't censor their VNs overseas after they made separated brand like Laplacian (Beside Yuzusoft did reveal that they still developed their 12th eroge at the stream). I'll try to talk more on Parquet later when Nekonyan release this.
There's fox girl simulation game called Your Waifu Foxgirl Konko, and what I can say is that it should be a good game if you like to make foxgirl as your wife so have fun if you interested with this and already playing it. As promised, JAST did release Mamono Musume Slime and Scylla back at 30th so go get it if you've been want to play this ever since JAST did announce it back at AX 2019 and have fun. Mangagamer did suddenly released Christmas Tina back at July 29th, and from what I see it's tell us the story of the struggle of Chinese man and Japanese teenage girl to survive at the Bubble Era in Japan (At 1988). From there both people will do their best to survive through the era, and hopefully they can do well. Other thing to note is that it's written by Narcissu's writer and that it has Chinese voices because Nekoday is Chinese company, and that the VN itself is all age so no sex scenes. I heard that it's quite nice VN, so if you interested to see whether it's really a nice VN or not perhaps you can get Christmas Tina there and have fun.
Oshirabu FD was released faster than the schedule (Only one day faster though), and as for the premise it's more or less the continuation of the story of GL couple who keep loving each other after their first meeting was has some miscommunication. Go get Oshirabu FD if you like the main game and want to see more of it, and have fun. We also have Bustafellows was released, and it's also available for Steam as well so it should be good for otome VN fans who only have PC there. As for the premise, we'll have the MC who work as the journalist witnessed murderer case and she has some superpower in which she can leap into the past within very short of time in the bodies of other. In case you like the art or find the story interesting (Or perhaps both), you can get this from Steam and have fun if you're already played it.
In their recent blogpost Kakugo Translation announced that they took over Sukiuso translation project, and currently it's been at 38% translated (It's the new translation for the info). I don't know if they can finished it or not yet seeing that it's rumored to be hard to translate, but seeing that the translator is the big fan of it I'll just say good luck to the team and hopefully this time we can see Sukiuso fully translated (I'll see if they'll be able to provide more updates on this later as they said). Other than Sukiuso has new translator, we have Taimanin Kurenai was at 15% edited, Shin Koihime Musou was at 47% edited, Harugi was at 20% edited, and Eustia was at 92.34% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 59.27% TLC-ed.
The biggest release (Or rather releases) of this week to me would be Primal x Hearts duology by Shiravune in which it can be said as Marmalade's most well known VNs. As for the premise for both VNs, we'll going to have the MC transfer as the 777th student to the school that has two student councils and each councils have same number of supporters which obviously caused the votes to be ended in deadlock, and the MCs from both of Primal x Hearts are the only hope to resolve the deadlock. While both of the VNs shared same premise, there's some difference between two VNs in which apparently Marmalade did refine some writing in the second Primal x Hearts. Overall I can say that both are good charage so you can play it in any order based on the heroines preference (Or perhaps you can play both if you find all of the heroines are cute). Go get both of Primal x Hearts if you've been waiting for this ever since Shiravune did release Study Steady, and have fun.
That's all for this week VNTS Review, and I know that I missed some additional updates here so I'll save those for next VNTS Review. See you next week.
PS - As for the title for this week I decided to parodied Sailor Moon full title (Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon) because we have one of Primal Hearts 2 heroines has very similar name with a bit difference as Sailor Moon civilian name (Tsukino Usagi, and the name for Primal x Hearts 2 heroine is Tsukiyono Usagi) with said heroine is the idol, and so we have 'Pretty Idol Sailor Usagi' (Which should be good for her stage name had she not (Understandably) embarrassed with her full name lol) as the title for this week VNTS Review.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and as for this week since we have Sakura Forest Girl 2 released along with JAST announced the exact release date of their short nukige that featured slime girl (Mamono Musume Slime and Scylla) I just change 'Forest Girl' into 'Slime Girl' so we have 'Sakura Slime Girl' for the title. As for this week, well plain would be the right word to say it considering that there's no much updates for this week. That said it didn't mean that there's no topic to talk though because at least there's some updates from Sekai, and so let's see what I can write in regard of that at this week.
To tell the truth, I did forget that JAST did license Lamento so back when they decided to cancel the license at June I just think that they mean that they won't license it. As for the reason, JAST did say that the sales for their other VNs didn't justify the expense of localized Lamento (They not specified whether it's their BL VNs or all of their VNs though), and perhaps it can also be said that currently they didn't have enough money to fund the translation process. Well to me the license is redundant anyway seeing that there's fan translation patch for Lamento since back at 2015, but JAST promised that they may release this in the future so at least there's some hope for anyone else who look forward for JAST version of Lamento release. Speaking of release, after two years waiting finally we have them release Mamono Musume Slime and Scylla download version at 30th later. With this perhaps now there's a chance that we may see Yamizome release at this year.
Sekai did release 2236 AD prequel on Steam with the premise that we'll see the story about the MC AI secretary, and I didn't have much to say other than go get the VN if you want to see more of 2236 AD and have fun. As for Sekai's updates, this week we have Amairo Chocolata 2 was at 40% translated, ReLord 3 was at 20% edited, Yumeiro was at 8% translated, and Slobbish Dragon Princess 2 was at three quarter edited. Frontwing give yet another useless update in regard of Sharin in that they try to have their server problem that caused the release to delayed resolved by the end of this month, and for that I can only say good luck to them now that they only have two days left.
Once again Shiravune did release yet another VN, and this time we have short title with the localized name Chihiro Himukai Always Walks Away (Or if you want direct translation of the Japanese title Chihiro Himukai Can't Continuing Her Work). The premise of the VN itself is we have the MC met with his old female friend Chihiro Himukai and Chihiro decided to be the MC's friend with benefit in that Chihiro and MC only become sex friends instead of lover. While it looks like nukige at first, turned out that it has more than mere nukige seeing that we have Hayase Yuu as the writer which mean that we'll see the romance development between the MC and Chihiro with some of comedy if we remember his previous works (Fureraba and Makeover). Well at least this time Shiravune also had this on Steam so that the customer didn't need to deal with bothersome Denuvo at Johren, so get this from either of Johren or Steam if you interested with this and have fun.
That's all for this week VNTS and sorry if it's too short here. See you next week.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review. As for this week title, since we have JAST finally announced Muramasa exact release date along with Distant Memorajo release in which the latter is the sequel of Amrilato (It's GL VN with learning Esperanto as the premise for the reminder), I decided to use the Esperanto direct translation of Muramasa English title (Full Metal Daemon Muramasa) so we have 'Plena Metala Demono Muramasa' as this week VNTS Review title and obviously this is not Esperanto translated Muramasa review in case you're wonder about it lol. For this week, well JAST obviously has the biggest news with them announced the exact release date for Muramasa. Other than Muramasa release date, we also have Mangagamer released their aforementioned Memorajo and Sekai did have some updates. Overall I can say that this week is quite interesting, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week VNTS.
Because of technical problem that conveniently happened with the server that handle the distribution of the download file, Frontwing delayed Sharin yet again in order to fix the problem. Frontwing did give the estimation that the problem may be fixed and that they'll finally be able to release it at the middle of this week (Either at tomorrow Wednesday or Thursday), so let's see if they'll manage to do it later. Cherry Kiss did released another nukige back at 16th, and I have no much to say other than have fun play the nukige if you've been interested with it. Speaking of nukige, Fakku apparently already doing some testing for Abaddon and thus they announced the estimation release month in which it'll be at October later. Last but not the least, we have the sequel for Somnium (nirvanA Initiative) in which it'll have new female MC Mizuki who is the previous MC Date stepdaughter involved in murder case investigation. In any case, it'll be available for console (PS4, XBOX One, and Switch) and PC at Spring 2022 (According to the Steam store page) later so you may note the release timeline if you're interested with it.
Sekai did release Nekopara Catboy Paradise, and the heroes design did remind some people of Dies Irae which make sense because Dies Irae artist did design the character in Nekopara Catboy Paradise. Go get the VN if you want to play Nekopara with handsome catboy, and have fun. Other than Nekopara Catboy Paradise, we have Karakara 3 was fully edited, Slobbish Dragon Princess 2 was fully translated and currently it's in editing, and lastly we have Sekai did announce the exact release date for 2236 AD prequel at 23rd later. For fan translation updates at this week, we have Watamasu was at 30% in QA and Eustia was at 92.06% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 57.78% TLC-ed.
JAST did bring the surprising big news in regard of Muramasa exact release date, and as we know we'll going to have it released at August 24th later. As for a bit of history, back at 2012 there's a rumor that JAST got the license of this with some progress. Of course after some times people forgotten Muramasa's license because back then JAST was quite infamous with the licenses that took years to be released, so naturally people would be skeptical if JAST will be released Muramasa at all. Turned out that JAST keep working on Muramasa here, and now we have JAST give the surprise that they'll release it in the near time. Muramasa itself is said to be Nitroplus's Magnum Opus so obviously it's a very well received VN (Or as people says kamige), and one thing that should be noted that there's no happy ending in regard of this along with the VN itself has a lot of death count so hopefully you'll prepare for that if you play Muramasa later. By the way even with JAST finally manage to release a very big title, I'm still waiting for them to finally release Yamizome Revenger here.
Lastly we have Mangagamer released Distant Memorajo, and curiously Mangagamer didn't announce their next release although one can say that right now Mangagamer may preparing something to announce at Otakon virtual later. Back to Memorajo, for the reminder in the prequel (Amrilato) we have our MC Rin trapped in the world with Esperanto as the main language, and Rin was taught Esperanto language by Ruka. As for Memorajo here, we'll going to see Ruka's past along with more romance between Rin and Ruka after they manage to become GL couple. Although not all of content are happy romance though, because the couple will face some more problem that related to the language barrier so it's up to both of Rin and Ruka to overcome it. Anyway get Memorajo if you've been want to play it ever since Amrilato released, and have fun.
That's all for what I can write in regard of this week, and see you next week.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and as for the title I'll tell it at PS later. As for this week, well Sekai did have AX Lite announcements and Nekonyan have their usual monthly updates along with two VNs releases, so we van see that this week is quite an active one even though Sekai's announcements are not as big as I expected. Oh well, and let's see what I can write for this week.
Cherry Kiss Games decided to release another nukige at 16th later, and the nukige localized name is Horny Housewives Booty Call Blackmail. Speaking of blackmail, we have GL VN with the premise that love was started from blackmail Letters from a Rainy Days was released at Steam. From what I see, apparently the story not put much focus on the mystery who's the blackmailer but instead the romance that happen as the result of the blackmail. While to be fair the romance should be the main focus, it would be still nice to see the answer from the mystery if possible. In any case, at least my guess is proven right in that this is the first part of serial VN judging from on how short the playtime of this VN and a number of supporting characters that can form two more couples along with the sentence 'Episode Shiori Minato x Mikoto Kurahashi', so let's see when the developer can release the second part later. In any case you want to play this GL VN, go get it and have fun.
For Nekonyan's updates, we finally have Hello Lady engine work was wrapping up which could be interpreted as finally the developer took the action to work on the engine so let's hope that we have see more QA progress from Hello Lady in the near future. Other than that, we have Aoi Tori was at halfway translated, Cafe Stella was at 65% translated and edited, Makeover FD was at 30% translated, Mirai Radio was at 78% edited, Karichaimashita was fully edited along with a quarter in QA, and 1st secret project was at 90% translated along with a quarter edited.
From fan translation, we have Chaos Head Noah was at 93.57% translated (Common route was at 95.39% translated) along with 16.30% TLC-ed and 9.57% edited, Aya's route in Akatsuki no Goei was fully translated and now the translator put his focus on translating Moe's route, 85.8% original lines of Summer Pocket being reworked, and Snow common route was at 91% translated. Speaking of Snow, turned out that the group who translate it also has two new projects. The first project is Konosora Snow Projects in which it's another Konosora FD with the main heroine is Kotori herself (Who apparently is quite popular), and the second is restoration of Miagete sex scenes. I definitely interested with the latter because so far we have two failed Miagete restoration project, although whether they can do it later or not we still need to wait and see in regard of it (By the way I agree with the translator that Pulltop's engine is quite bothersome to work with).
As for Sekai new VNs announcements, three of those are predictable seeing that they already license the prequel of those (Those three VNs are ReLord 3, Amairo Chocolata 2, and Slobbish Dragon Princess 2). Sekai also did announce AD 2236 Prequel, which to say good for 2236 fans. Lastly while I did say that Sekai's announcements are quite underwhelming, actually their last announcement Qualia itself is quite interesting to a degree with the premise on how the MC who is a lonely scientist slowly growing a special feeling towards his maid robot. We also have the updates from Sekai as well, and as for the updates we have Qualia was fully translated and edited, Karakara 3 was at 15% edited, Amairo Chocolata 2 was at 29% translated, 2236 Prequel was fully translated and edited, ReLord 3 was fully translated, and Slobbish Dragon Princess 2 was at 96% translated. Lastly we have Sekai announced Nekopara Catboy Paradise release date, and it'll be at 15th.
Last but not the least, we have JAST released Onigokko in which it tell us the story about the MC who work as Phantom Thief who's been searching for his impostor. Also like any charage story can tell us, the MC will have romance with the heroines which in this case there'll be four heroines who actually the descendant of the four characters from Japanese folktale (Momotaro, Kintarou, Issun Boshi, and Otohime). Go get Onigokko if you've been interested with this for a while, and have fun. Oh yes while Sekai did bring some new announcements at AX Lite, curiously JAST didn't join it so we didn't have them announced Flowers Hiver at this year (They'll probably announce it when it's about to be released later).
That's all for this week VNTS Review, and see you next week.
PS - For the title since we have Sekai did announce both of Qualia and Amairo Chocolate 2 as their new projects I decided to parodied Stella Glow opening song, Hikari no Metamorphosis, by changing 'Hikari' into 'Chocolata' so we have 'Chocolata no Metamorphosis as this week VNTS Review. The reason I decided to chose Stella Glow opening song is because in Stella Glow it happen that there's a gem that can transform human into witch called qualia.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and as for the title I'll tell it at PS later. As for this week, we didn't have much updates although in exchange we have new VNs announcement along with some releases so overall I can say that this week is still interesting to a degree thanks to the announcements even though it's not as active as last week. Let's see what I can write in regard of this week VNTS Review.
Sekai did released Slobbish Dragon Princess FD yesterday, and what I can say is that at least the graphic is quite good I suppose. Anyway go play the FD if you like the main game and want to see more of it, and have fun. We also have Shiravune did suddenly released Suzukuri Karin-chan at Johren, although unfortunately it's only at Johren so it mean that you need to deal with the bothersome DRM (Denuvo) but at least this time it has activation code for anyone who purchase it from there so it should be easier to activated. Other thing that I know in regard of this is that it's the collaborative project between Softhouse Chara and Nexton with the former provided the gameplay engine and the latter provided Koihime Musou characters, or in easier word the premise is like Bunny Black only that we have Koihime Musou MC instead of Darx. Go get the VN if you want more of Softhouse Chara gameplay VN, and have fun. Oh yes it also has fan translation, although seeing that the translator asking for money for fan translation which to say is quite rude I'll say good for Shiravune that they took over Suzukuri Karin-chan even with DRM there.
From fan translation we have Eustia was at 91.52% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 54.94% TLC-ed, Loverable has surprise update with the current progress was at 96.13% edited, and we have Rewrite Cradle Tale translation patch released (It's Rewrite Terra route epilogue, so you can get it if you want to see a bit more of Rewrite (It's quite short) there). From Alka they announced two new projects with one of those is Clearworld in that it's quite an underrated VN that was written by one of Science Adventure writer who also write (Infamous) DaSH, and that it's science fiction VN with the setting is at the city in the sea. The second new project is bigger one in that it's Aonatsu Line which it's GIGA's attempt to go back to normal moege after they've been writing Baldr series, and the premise is we have a group of friend who want to do some memorable activities for summer. Good that Alka did picked up Aonatsu Line there, because I can see that GIGA will forcefully censored the official localized version like Pulltop. Anyway good luck on Alka in regard of their new project, especially Aonatsu there (I'll note the progress when they have it later).
JAST did announce that they'll release Onigokko at 29th later, and as we know it's Alcot VN with the setting that the heroines are the descendant of Japanese folktale hero with the MC is the phantom thief who's about to search for his impostor. It also prove that Alcot is quite flexible seeing that they have partnership with Nekonyan in regard of Clover Days localization, but then again it's more like Alcot back to JAST seeing that both of them did work together for My GF is President aka Osadai. In any case, this mean that Onigokko here will be the third translated Alcot VNs after Osadai and Shinikiss. Also since I did hear the good reception in regard of Onikiss, I'll look forward to the release later.
That's all for what I can write in regard of this week, and see you next week.
PS - Since we have Onigokko release date announcement by JAST and that it featured the phantom thief as the MC, I parodied the old magical girl manga Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne in that the MC (Maron) was act as the phantom thief in order to fight the demon, and I changed Jeanne into Ura from the Onigokko MC alias (Kaitou Ura) so we have 'Kamikaze Kaitou Ura' as this week VNTS Review title. Note that while usually we think that kamikaze mean suicide thanks to Japanese Special Attack Units at World War 2, actually in Japan it mean 'divine wind' and Jeanne full Japanese title here is literally translated as 'Divine Wind Phantom Thief Jeanne'. Also yes it has Joan of Arc element as well in that Maron is the reincarnation of Joan of Arc.
Since we have both of Jeanne at the Clock Tower released alongside Kirikoi, I decided to combined both element from both work for this week VNTS Review title. For the info, Jeanne here is based on the story of Joan of Arc (Loosely at that) and that one of her alias is 'The Maid of Orleans', so obviously I changed 'Orleans' into 'Sortilège' in which the latter is the fictional country in Kirikoi. As for this week, well I can say that it's quite exciting seeing that we have a number of the releases with the most interesting one is Kirikoi along with several new VNs announcements. Of course we have some updates as well, and this week we have Sekai announced their updates as well. Overall I can say that this is an active week, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week.
Mangagamer did release Jeanne back at 10th, and as we know it's Liar-soft VN which if we remember will dealing with the characters from alternative history in which we have our MC who is a soldier of World War 2 somehow travelled into somewhere and he manage to encounter the female who call her self Jeanne who as we know is the French name of Joan. Together both of them will see on how Joan of Arc did shape the history of France and Europe as the whole, or at least according to what Mangagamer's Translator Corner of Jeanne said. It also available for Linux and Macintosh as well seeing that Mangagamer did port this to Ren'py engine, so good for Linux or Macintosh users. Anyway go get Jeanne if you want to play Liar-soft, and have fun. Also since Mangagamer did release one of their VN, it mean that they'll announce their next release and in this case they'll release Memorajo at July 15th later so you may note the date if you want to read the sequel of Amrilato.
We have Moonchime Localization announced their new two VNs that will be released at this year, and those two VNs are Tokyo Onmyouji (Has sex scenes for the reminder) and My Dear Frankenstein in which both of the VNs are BL VNs because Moonchime Localization is a localization company that was focused on BL VNs translation. Not my taste to say it lightly, but at least you can read it if you interested with those two and perhaps you may find the story interesting (Some BL VNs can have interesting story after all (ie Dramatical Murder and Hashihime)). We also have the Steam store for Taisho Alice Epilogue was opened, and there's already the release date for it in which it'll be at 24th later so you may note the date if you want to read the last part of Taisho Alice there. Lastly, today we have otome VN release with the name Bakumatsu Renka Shinsengumi with the setting is in historical Japan, so go get that if you interested and have fun.
Sekai did reveal their third Secret Project, and turned out it's Slobbish Dragon Princess FD that will be released at 22nd later. Considering that it's quite fast of them to localize the FD, I assume that Sekai already has the plan to localize the unreleased sequel as well so let's wait and see if my assumption here is true later. Other than that, we have KARAKARA 3 was fully translated and Kimagure was 20% in QA. From fan translation, we have Steps to Love full translation patch release, and no much to say other than go get that if you're been wanting to play the nukige that has a lot of footjob (The title should tell enough that it's the main fetish lol). For the rest of fan translation updates, we have Taimanin Kurenai was at 35% translated, Gore Screaming Show was at 21.79% translated, Harugi was at 17% edited, and Eustia was at 91.48% TLC-ed with Licia's chapter was at 51.48% TLC-ed.
JAST did release Meteor Pendulum heart back at 11th, and from what I see it's more or less just a nukige with space police setting which to say may be nice to play if you're in the mood of short nukige. While it has transformation scene akin of magical girl, I would say that it's a stretch to call Pendulum Heart as magical girl VN. Anyway go get Pendulum Heart if you interested with it and have fun. By the way I'm still waiting for Yamizome Revenger in that JAST did say that they'll release it at this year, so let's see if they can fulfill what they say later. I also like to say something in regard of JAST recent policy in which they'd release the download version first following with physical version release later, and I must say that it's good policy of them because it mean that they can keep the release pace with both of Sekai and Mangagamer which as we can see now JAST manage to release six VNs in half a year (Perhaps their slow release pace in the past was caused by the preparation for physical version). Here's hoping JAST can keep this release pace in the future.
Nekonyan did release Kirikoi in which it's the first Saga Planet VN available in English, and what you should expect is that it has blonde girl as the main heroines along with red-haired side heroine with the setting was in the academy that turned out to have the same name as the school in GPPC. Also one should note that it has some of threesome sex scenes in which turned out that it cause some people to have some complicated if not absurd reaction, and that some of the ending is quite unexpected for this seemingly lighthearted charage. So go get Kirikoi from one of the available stores (ie Steam, Mangagamer, Fakku, or Denpasoft) and have fun. One more thing to note that Nekonyan did port the engine, and the result is that it has some bugs (You can still play Kirikoi though). I'm still think that Nekonyan is right though for porting the engine, especially if we look at on how long Akatsuki Works tweaking the engine of Hello Lady and not to mention Sekai in that they need to wait for the engine of their VNs, and if anything else at least the porting result is better compared to the one in Lamunation.
That's all for this week VNTS Review, and see you next week.
PS - I know that both of JAST and Alka did announce new projects which to say are quite interesting, but I'll save the talk on those projects for next VNTS Review.
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and as for the title I combined 'Clock Tower' from Jeanne at the Clock Tower that will be released later along with this week nukige release (Big Dick at the Beach), so we have 'Clock Tower at the Beach' as this week VNTS Review title (By the way I also find out that there's a real clock tower in the beach in which it's place of interest at Monteral). As for this week, well if not for Nekonyan's updates at yesterday it would be a dry week seeing that we only have one nukige release from Cherry Kiss. That said, at least there's fault side below so actually it wouldn't quite bad even if Nekonyan didn't give the update yesterday seeing that side below is the long awaited new part of fault VN that has hiatus for six years. Overall combined with Nekonyan's updates this week is yet another average one, and let's see what I can write in regard of this week VNTS Review.
Cherry Kiss did release their nukige with the daring title that I mentioned above, and no much to say other than go play that if you're interested with it and have fun. Speaking of nukige, JAST did announce that they'll release their newest release with the title Meteor Pendulum Heart (Real title Ryuusei Pendulum Heart) at 11th later. From what I see apparently it has space police heroine along with the aforementioned space police can change the costume through transformation scene so perhaps it can be said like magical girl, although saying that it's magical girl would be a stretch. I know that I should praise JAST to finally get six releases in half a year regardless on how big the releases in question are, but I still want to see them to finally released Yamizome Revenger here. Other than that, it seems that JAST has a plan to announce something interesting later so let's see if the announcements is as interesting as they're implied (One of those interesting announcements could be Flowers Hiver).
Finally we have release announcement for Fault 2 Side Below, and the release will be at September later (Hopefully the developer already taken care of their own problem so we didn't need to wait for years for the sequel). Granted that they're quite late because they did announce that they'll release it at Spring in the past (To be fair it's just estimation), but at least they're still on time for spring release in Australia lol. Oh yes they already opened the Steam store for it, so you can check the store page here. From fan translation, no much to say in regard of that other than we have A-4 was fully TLC-ed (Yes now A-4 here has TLC status), and Chaos Head Noah was 95.04% translated (Common route was at 93.07% translated) along with 13.52% TLC-ed and 7.33% edited.
As for Nekonyan's update yesterday, turned out that they have two new secret projects with both of those are already have some progress (1st project was at 80% translated and 2nd project was at 40% translated). No idea what the projects are, so no choice other than waiting Nekonyan reveal those two secret projects. For the rest of their updates, we have Karichaimashita almost finished the editing work with the current progress was at 98% edited, Melty Moment was at 70% translated, Cafe Stella was at 60% translated and edited, Mirai Radio was at 70% edited, Makeover FD started the translation progress with the current progress was at 5% translated, and Aoi Tori was at 45% translated. Looking from the progress, it seems possible that Nekonyan will also released Karichsimashita along with Clover Day's at this year, so let's wait to see if my guess will become true later.
That's all for this week VNTS Review, and see you next week.
