As for magic school, there's Da Capo 3 in that it's more or less a normal slice of life VN with the setting magic school. If you didn't mind some gameplay, then perhaps you can try Duel Savior. For the similar setting like Dracu Riot, then you can try Koiken Otome. I hope my recommendations here will be helpful to you.

In the end, I guess the KS that they had in order to create this VN is quite ambitious with the base goal was only at 1,300 and the fund gathered was at 18,000, and yet they want to have the VN have English voice and manga adaptation within that goal which to say was a bit over the top and very hard to fulfill.

Well I would say that you better to just pick the available translation, seeing that Sekai might not be able to release this anymore or to put it nicely they need some more very long wait to be able to release it. Or if you still have some doubt then you can try it first, and if you didn't find any particular problem with the translation then you can continue with the available patch.

Well good luck to the work there, and if you forced to resort to MTL I guess ot can't really helped here (It's still preferrable though if the sex scenes translated properly).

Spoiler for Megumi's route here below. I guess that's all for what I can say here, and yeah my concern here is only in Megumi's route.

As for that while it's not as bad as Meikyuu to Rakuen in that it ended before the big action, the cliffhanger is still there. Namely that it'll end in a downer note (You should understand it from the chapter name alone) and the main casts will resolve it in the next chapter, so yeah you better wait until Matsuribayashi if you prefer wait for the resolution (You can read the older version of Matsuribayashi though if you being impatient after read Chapter 7). Hope it'll answer your question here.

Currently they managed to gather 130,766 so congratulation to Nekonyan there, and here's the update in regard of their success. Now the only thing left is the announcement for the release, so we need to wait for that and hopefully it'll be not long.

Well it took three years for JAST to both of answer yes in regard of the thread title and prove me wrong in that they managed to have GOLD license, although apparently Fruitbat wouldn't involved in GOLD though.

Welcome to Fuwanovel and sorry for the belated greeting. As you can see, we have a blog here so if you want to post something about your VN or review you can make the blog here. By the way I also have a blog here, and my focus is about VNTS which mean keep writing about the development in VNs translation. At first I just want to do it for fun, but like mod Lesiak above I managed to get into it as my weekly habit and suddenly it's been more than three years since I started the blog. Lastly I hope that you'll have fun here.

That's some good recommendations above, so I'll just seconded those. For more recommendations perhaps you can try Fata Morgana, Himawari, and Chaos duology (Head and Child). Of course you can play Majokoi now that it's already released, and if you want some lighter one then you can try both of Da Capo trilogy and Dal Segno. I hope my recommendations here will be helpful to you.

At least it's good that Mangagamer took another way to announced their next releases (I look forward to Haretaka here), although I wonder though on how Mangagamer will announce their October release later. Granted we can treat Ciconia as October release, but still I prefer if Mangagamer can announce their next title after their redundant Sengoku release.

Since my name is mentioned along with my country I must say, yeah Indonesia here is have a lot of piracy problem and majority of those would chose to pirate the VNs. That said, I don't really know though the exact number of the download, so I can't be so sure on how much that Indonesian did contribute on the pirating here if we talk about Sol Press VNs only because I'm quite sure that some people from other countries also contribute to the download number. At least I knew that some of Indonesian here buy the VNs legally through Steam, so I can say that some Indonesian here start to buy the VNs legally. By the way most of the game that sold in here is pirated one, at least for PS (Except 3 and 4) and PC. About the article granted that there's a piracy factor that was caused Japanese VNs studio to be closed down, but I think most of those can be contributed to the rise of mobage in that apparently it's very booming in Japan (So much that two VNs companies (Light and Sprite) were attempted to do that only to be backfired). About Sol Press itself, what I can say is that compared to Nekonyan they started earlier and yet Nekonyan already beat them in term of release time, and let's not forget about Daresora which to say is not the most ideal format for VNs release (At least the price is very cheap if you want to legally buy it). I guess for now I can only say that hopefully Sol Press will keep their persistence in the VN localization, and that they'll be able to pace their release (I wouldn't comment/complain about the translation quality unless it's like SG (Sakura Games) or Your Diary).

Visual Novel Translation Status (07/28/2019) It's good to see that we managed to have VNTS again (Hopefully Decay can keep it up). Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and as for the title it should be obvious where it came from although I'll explain it at PS later. Rest assure that this is not because Winged Cloud decided to suddenly released yet another Sakura VN. As for this week, I like that we have some very interesting updates from both of Mangagamer's Otakon announcements (I think you might be more interested with their Otakon's announcements instead of AX) and the releases. Let's see what I can write for this week in regard of the updates along with the Otakon as well. As for fan translation itself while more or less it's still just usual updates with the most prominent one is Eustia's update, we also have a surprise release for this week. For the updates, we have 4,923 lines of Pure x Connect are edited, Loverable was at 68.83% edited, and Eustia was at 73.28% translated with Eustia's chapter was at 18.05% translated. We also have the update from Monster Girl Quest Paradox translation project, and apparently they more or less already finished translating the whole VN although they still need some time to do clean up the translation though so we need to wait for full patch release (You can view the progress here). For the surprise release at this week we have Sono Hanabira (Sonohana) 12 release back at 24th, in which is the continuation of Risa x Miya story after Sonohana 11. Although unlike 11 we wouldn't have all stars couple though, so it's just Risa x Miya story there and at least we didn't need to wait for Mangagamer to announce Sonohana 12 because obviously it's already translated. By the way for the reminder here Sonohana is the series of GL VNs, and with this now we have 14 translated Sonohana VNs (Including New Generation and Deatta). Other As for Date A Live, recently I do some research about it and the artist also work in Neptunia so it's normal if you find some resemblance between Date A Live and Neptunia arts. The premise is obviously very different in that instead of having a female personification of console, we'll gong to have a male MC to date a spirit in order to prevent the world from destruction. While granted the premise is quite absurd at the first glance, actually the world building in the series is quite interesting and that the spirits here is not really a traditional spirits. And the formula is proven to be well received so much that it got many adaptation, with on of those is the anime in which the season 3 of that was infamously badly animated by JC Staffs. As for the VN itself, well apparently most of those are sort of alternative scenarios from what happen in the light novel canon seeing that it also introduced several new heroines as well. Other than that, I just know that it'll be a pure VN compared to Neptunia and obviously wouldn't have sex scenes (Duh) seeing that it's a port from the console. You can get Date A Live VN at Steam if you've been a hardcore fans of Date A Live and want to try the VN version, and have fun. We also have two nukige releases here, and both of those will obviously have a lot of sex scenes. I know that Sonohana is also technically a nukige, but compared to those two I think Sonohana here is more tamer. For the premises one of those will have love triangle with twin sister of childhood friends at summer, and another one is Love Cube in which it's telling us on how a male MC will have a harem life with three big breast female who work on hentai manga (At least the childhood friend one is look normal). No much comment other than it's obviously very exciting if we talk about it visually wise, and that Love Cube here is from the same company group as Nekopara so you may feel familiar with Love Cube's interface if you've been play Nekopara. You can get those two nukige if you've been interested with it, and have fun. Almost forget to inform that Photonflower released was delayed to August 3rd, so you need to wait for a while if you've been looking forward into it. Sekai Project Release wise Sekai here is have a big one at this week back at Friday (26th), but beforehand they also announced that they already prepared the release estimation for Zombie VN part 2. Some source did say that it'll be released at August 12th, although I wouldn't be sure about that until the release though. In any case, at least it's good that Sekai cleared two of their a lot of VN backlog here and perhaps we'll really get Nanairo release date in the very near future. As for the release from Sekai, it's obviously Majokoi in which it's been in the translation for three years since back at 2016. Back then it was hosted at Luna Translation when one of our member (Aizen) did create that site in order to host the VNs translation projects, and one of those projects was Majokoi. As far as translation goes in three years, there's no much to talk other than it's going smoothly until the editing and QC process was finished and back at 2018 Sekai decided to license this as well, which is not as surprising back when Saku Saku was announced by them. As for the premise, we have our cute Decoy MC Alice (Another Alice Allusion) who find a mysterious diary that depict the real MC (Takumi) sex activities, and some of Takumi's partner is the woman that Alice met in her real life. Curious, Alice decided to investigate more about the diary which might contain some unexpected truth. Majokoi here is also mark the first Niijima Yuu VN that was being fully translated, so you may cry at some points in Majokoi later seeing that Niijima was famous for his nakige writing. Go get Majokoi at either Steam or Denpasoft store, and have fun. Mangagamer From Mangagamer announcements, turn out that my prediction is right in that all of their announcements is the last three of their secret projects and that all of those are from their available partners. Other than that, they also announced their next releases (Three of that) which they couldn't announced back at Minagoroshi release because of their payment processor problem. As for the first release announcements, it's Sengoku Rance at September 12th which is a redundant release to me. The second release announcements is Ciconia, in that Ryuukishi will obviously release the first part of that and for the release date it'll be at October 4th in that it'll be at the same time with Japanese release. The last but definitely not the least release announcements is Haretaka, in which finally was about to be released at August 15th later. Good luck for Haretaka release later. As for Uchikano, what I can say is that the premise is resembled Kanojo no Seiiki only that instead of Eri Sendai in Uchikano we have Yuina voicing the heroine here. To be more serious here both of Seiiki and Uchi trilogies premises is very similar with the MC live together with one heroine for each chapter, with the last chapter of the trilogies the MCs will have two heroines to content at the respective trilogy. Although both trilogies are already around before Loca Love, it's normal if we recognize Loca Love first because Loca Love is the first localized VN that introduce the concept of serial VNs with one heroine per chapter (I might be wrong on this). By the way Argonauts here is the branch brand for Moonstone, so it's still counted as Moonstone VN to a degree. Like I said beforehand, Uchikano here is one of the secret project and in this case it's 9th secret project with current progress was at 77% translated. We also have new gameplay VN announcement from Mangagamer at this Otakon, and it's Magic and Slash from Luna Soft. It's also quite an unique one seeing that it got female MC, and more importantly it's an action RPG which is rare in the VN. As for the premise, we have our MC cowardly Lille who talented in both of sword and magic thanks to her parents bloodline. One day her mentor Tanya got a request to investigate the problem that happen in Tanya's village, but instead of Tanya taking care of the problem she tell Lille to take care of it while Tanya herself is lazing around in the village. Seeing no choice, Lille decided to steel herself in order to investigate the problem and eventually take care of it. Other than this VN is being action RPG VN, we'll also going to have Lille getting raped by the monsters when she defeated so hopefully you can try to avoid that if possible. Magic and Slash here is the 8th secret project, and for the progress currently it's fully translated along with past halfway (55%) translated. The biggest announcement from Mangagamer here is obviously Sakuramori, in which it's been asked by several people as one of Moonstone VN that wanted to be translated. Sakuramori here is also known as the first secret project, and currently it's in image editing so perhaps it'll take no long time before we see Sakuramori in testing. As for the premise, it's an unique one seeing that it's a Moonstne VN that was focused n the mystery instead of their usual moege focus. In there we'll have Shinji who tried to move on after his childhood friend Madoka was brutally murdered, and after some time later Shinji saw Madoka's spirit. Soon after the town was engulfed in the darkness with the monster roaming around, and thus Shinji starting to gather some allies that capable to combat the monster and hopefully end the incident. As for the writing, I believe that Kure want to write this kind of story even since back at Suika although apparently Sakuramori here is the improvement on his writing back at Honoguraki Toki no Hate Yori though. In any case, I'll look forward to Sakuramori here. That's all for this week VNTS Review along with my commentary on Otakon, and see you next week. PS - For this week title, since we have Magic and Slash MC here is basically have a Magic Knight job and we also have 'Sakura' from Sakuramori, I just combined both of those so we have 'Sakura Magic Knight' as this week VNTS Review.

Recently like to hear Nine Episode 3 opening song, so I'll post it below. Enjoy.

Here's their announcements at Otakon below, and for the image and description it was taken from VNDB entry (Actually it's also the same back at AX announcements, but I forgot to wrote it). For this time I'll put the announcements on the quote box below. For the announcements, the biggest one should be obviously Sakura no Mori so I hope that they would quickly worked on it (It's also horror VN, in that the writer (Kure) was already shown that he have a talent to write it even back at Suika part 1). As for Magic and Slash while the MC is suffering here, I like that it have female MC and that the MC's job remind me of 9999 Magic Aptitude novel (Also have female MC), although I wonder though on how the gameplay would be. As for Uchikano, well it's yet another Loca Love like trilogy and the first part here will focusing on the childhood friend here just like the first part of Seiiki. They also have release announcements here in that they'll release Sengoku at September 12th later, and more importantly they'll release Haretaka at August 15th later which make a very nice gift for my Independence Days (Two days after Haretaka release). At least their payment processor issue didn't stop them to releasing the VNs here, so I'm very content with it.

I prefer to call it Majokoi here, but if some people did confused between Majikoi and Majokoi perhaps I should add the English title in the thread title here.

Yeah the title should be as clear as day in that we finally have Majo Koi Nikki release after spent three years being translated, and this VN is also the first Niijima Yuu works (Summer Pockets, Hatsuyuki Sakura, Natsuyume Nagisa) to be fully translated. I'll add more detail later, but let me warn you first that the beginning would have a lot of sex scenes courtesy of a diary writer so you better prepare for that, and as usual just put the expectation at moderate so you wouldn't need to be disappointed when turned out it's not your taste. I know that some people like it very much, although I also know that some other people may not like this. Feel free to discuss about Majokoi here, and you can get it at Steam. Have fun. Edit - I think I'll just directly add the main heroines here, and for Majokoi itself I would say that it'll be better to read it open mindedly seeing that the MC (Takumi) can come off as arrogant playboy which understandably could get on nerves for some of the readers. 1. Nanno Alice Our sort of the MC of Majokoi here, although if Danganronpa V3 teach us here it would be that it's better not to expect the female MC to lead the whole story or just expect her as Decoy MC. That said, at least she still better compared to Kaede in that she didn't get killed at the prologue's end and become one of the heroine. Her setting is that she live alone in a closed barbershop, and that she find a mysterious diary which depict the activity of a playboy with the name Takumi. And somehow it's become Alice's job to find more part of the diary seeing that the diary is scattered. Alice's VA here is Kusuhara Yui, in that she voiced Tsumugi Sara from Trinoline, Toki Nozomi from Daitoshokan, Akahoshi Corona from Lamunation, Niimi Yuzuki from Ginharu, Narusawa Megu from Hoshiori, and Arihara Nanami from Riddle Joker. 2. Tokeizaka Rei A famous student who also in the same year as Alice (2nd year), and yet she already hold the most important job in the school in that she's the principal herself. As for the reason, apparently it's simply because she's the oldest one in her family lineage and that both of her grandfather and her parents are very busy. We didn't need to care on why the parents either didn't think to hire an adult helper or have one of them help Rei, but instead we need to care that her VA is Mizuhashi Kaori who voiced Kurokawa Kirara from Yumina, Matsushima Michiru from Grisaia franchise (I think Rei is almost resembled Michiru here), Kiba Mifuyu from Koichoco, Togakushi Touko from Sanoba Witch, Sawai Maya from Da Capo 2, Fushikawa Kokoro from Majikoi, Clea from Duel Savior, and Kimiyoshi Natsumi from Higurashi. 3. Tokeizaka Canon (Or Kanon, depend on which your preference here) The younger twin of Tokeizaka family. As for Kanon (Yes I'll call her with 'K' here), unlike her sister she is more shy and tend to tell her analysis with some probability in percent. Her analysis ability here is really helping Rei a lot when Rei do her work as the principal, and so she's act as Rei's secretary here in that she also known as the second principal here. Her VA is Yuina, in which she voiced Akatsuki Arisa from Haretaka, Serikawa Eri from Suki Suki, Matoi Ayame from Uchi trilogy, Shizuki Hachiyo from Loca Love trilogy, Takayashiki Matsuri from Family Project 2013 version, and Endou Saya from Kisaragi Gold Star. 4. Kashiwabara Mii Alice's senpai in the photography club, although to Takumi she's more or less is a school newspaper club who interviewed him. When she was children, she dreamt of being an idol because to her idol is always shining before decided to give up on her dream because she's wearing glasses. Her VA is Inoue Nana in which she voiced Kitamikado Misako from Evangile (Yes that infamous headmistress share same VA as Mii here, and honestly it's too bad that Qoobrand didn't chose her as Rei's VA), Jinpou Ann from Saku Saku, Tenma Minase from Hole Breaker, Onabuta Ikuko from Nukitashi, Kuon Ayano from Hanasaki, and Minai Tomoe from Higurashi. 5. Suou Hijiri A young nun at the church in the forest who is also transfer in Takumi's class. As for a nun, let's just say that she's a bit too devoted to the God in that she even likened it to a man and that she like to preach other students for having a bad mouth and the only way to cure it is to praying to the God. Her VA is Samoto Fuuri in that she voiced Minahoshi Asuho from Hoshimemo, Wakaba Faure from Katahane, Ayase Kasumi from Dies Irae (No idea why she didn't reprise her role in the anime version), Nanase Ayumu from Natsuyume Nagisa, Estel Freesia from Yoake, Kozaki Aya from Hatsuyuki Sakura, Akihime Sumomo from Nanatsuiro Drops, and Itsukushima Takako from Otoboku. 6. Fujita Konron Alice's classmate who mostly always absent. As for her character, she's the aloof one in that she rarely talk and when she speak she said something that was quite mysterious. There's more than met her eyes her when it come to her role, but obviously it'll be a major spoilerso let's just say that obviously you'll learn more about her. Her VA is Yamada Yuna in which she voiced Miyamura Yuuko from ef, Elica from eden, Amano Angeline Hotaru from Supipara, Jounouchi Makoto from Chrono Clock, Koizuka Mana from Amatsutsumi, and Amagi Sakuya from Otairo. That's all for the main heroines of Majokoi here. As for the reason on why I said main heroines, it's because we also can play other routes for the side heroines (Those routes are quite short compared to the main heroines routes though). I know that Alice here is the MC, although from Takumi's perspective she's the one of the main heroine so it's still count here.

At least the girls is look nice aside from the breasts (Too big), although it's given though seeing that it's nukige and all. The HDD size is too big though, although it's probably because there'll be a lot of animations in the sex scenes.

Seeing that Otakon is almost close and this year is surprisingly very early, let's see on how I'll sort my interest for this tear AX below. Very Good Eiyuu Senki GOLD Mugen Renkan Yamizome Amatsutsumi Witch's Garden I know it's very surprising that I managed to got interested with the nukige here, but it's what happened here. Especially because Mugen Renkan here did have female MC (I know it's going to be a twisted VN here). Yamizome did have some gameplay, and more importantly the MC here did remind me of Himegari (The setting that resembled some modern fantasy light novel is also help here). I already interested with both of GOLD and Witch's Garden even back when both of those being fan translated, and more Purple Software VN is always good seeing that the graphic is quite nice. Good Robotic Notes and the sequel Koiama 2 Hyper Highspeed Genius Sakura Celebration Nine Episode 3 I just realized that both of Nine and Index MCs did share the same seiyuu (Atsuhi Abe), so Index fans should be feeling nostalgic when they hear Kakeru's (Nine's MC) voice (By the way the art is still good thanks to Tsubasu). By the way Nine 3 here already set the grand finale at the next volume, so at least it already resolved some of the plot points. Sakura Celebration here is definitely not Winged Cloud VN, and that the plot twist itself is quite interesting. About HHG, I have some doubt on the ending but setting wise it should be the most interesting one among Windmill announcements. Now that I look at Koiama 2 some more, the atmosphere did remind me of Gochiusa so it should be good for relaxing VN. For Robotic Notes here, obviously it should be very interesting for Science ADV fans and moreso if you've been Steins Gate fans. Average Rance 01 and 02 Bokukotsu FD Kanojo no Seiiki Nekogami Sideboob 2 Apparently Funbag did have some good story, so perhaps Sideboob 2 could be interesting if you can get the past of the (Very) big boobs. Visually wise, Bokukotsu is quite exciting and so does Seiiki 1 so both of those might be interesting from the graphic alone (By the way Seiiki here is like Loca Love). I still have no idea on why there's no trap MC when the premise is clearly stated that the little sister called the MC as big sister instead of big brother, but at least it's good moege. I also have no idea on why Alicesoft did release new script for 02 separately instead of combining it with the game so much that the fan did not translated the newer script, but I understand that both of those are redundant story wise (At least the graphic and the gameplay change should probably make it less redundant). Take Your Time (ie Not Looking Forward to It) All Aksys Otome Tetsuzo VNs Mamono Musume Slime Horny Housewife Well at least the slime girl is looking cute, although as usual I wouldn't care much about otome though (If you interested with it then it's okay). As for Tetsuzo VNs, his action aside I already think that I wouldn't take the interest to his VNs ever since the c, and I think it wouldn't be changed here. I don't know what to expect from Horny Housewife here other than it's Laplacian new nukige although maybe there's more than that, but for now I don't quite interested with it. As for the rest, my feeling towards NG is more or less neutral although I don't have console though so I wouldn't be able to play it for the obvious reasons. I guess that's all for my interest at AX announcements, and keep in mind that you may not agree with my interest here because after all everyone has their own taste.

Welcome to Fuwanovel and sorry for the belated greeting. For more VNs recommendations in regard of little sister, I would suggest you to try Wagahigh (Toa), Shinikiss (Shizuku), and Maitetsu (Hibiki). I don't know whether you'll be satisfied with those three VNs or not yet, but I hope that my recommendations here will be helpful to you. I hope that you'll enjoy yourself here.

Very straightforward introduction there, so welcome to Fuwanovel and I hope you'll have fun here.

Welcome to Fuwanovel, and if you need some VNs recommendations feel free to ask here. I hope that you'll have fun here.

While Mashiro license would be nice (Kawamura was in charge of anime art direction, so it's reasonable if you find Mashiro's anime art is beautiful), I don't think that Mangagamer will license that because there's no sign that they'll have the license from the new partners. Still it's not like it's bad if we hoping that someday we'll going to have Mashiro being localized, and so does several feng VNs (Hopefully Sekai will pick other feng VNs later).

As for the anime, I'm pretty much still following STPC here. Although I already 'grind' some manga though, so let me summarize few anime here that I know based on the manga. Arifureta - I just want to see on how Kaori will joining Hajime's party, although it'll be a long time though. By the way the manga was quite slow on the update there. OP Mother - I guess it's good that we have female overpowered character instead of male, although the male MC is definitely distracting though (I think there'll be almost no change if they have female MC here). Uchi Musume - The daughter is really cute so most of the time it should be light hearted. I didn't like it though when suddenly there's an insane racist priestess bully the daughter (Granted the daughter is a demon and that the priestess have a Freudian Excuse (A cliche one), but still it's too cruel to the daughter). Machikado Mazoku - I'll watch it occasionally later, although I can't say much about it though seeing that the manga is only one chapter translated other than the curse is surprisingly very mundane. Sounan Desu Ka - Cute girls do cute things, except change 'cute things' with 'learn to survive on a deserted island'. Quite informative with the survival information, although some of Homare's actions are quite uncanny though (I just hope that I never in need to practice her survival tips in the future). Dr. Stone - The author did write Eyeshield 21, although we obviously wouldn't have American football though seeing that the cast was more interested to survive in the Earth that was turned back to the stone age because suddenly all of humans turned into stone, and that the MC is a genius who somehow find a cure for reversing the petrification and go around to rescue the people Cheat Magician - Even though the author did attempt to add female MC that was also stranded into the other world and being overpowered in order to balance it, I'm still think that the author will definitely find a way to make the male MC being the most overpowered character in the series even compared to his female MC companion. So yeah just expect this as regular male MC isekai. I guess that's all for what I can say in regard of summer anime here.

For sure it's not Japanese VNs. My serious answer is that they've been less known compared to Japanese VN, and in regard of VNDB score I would say that you better ignore that and just read the VN by yourself to find out whether the Chinese VNs in question is good or not. As for the reason on why it's less known, I guess it's more like that the user would prefer familiar VN out there and by familiar VN I mean Japanese VN, while for Chinese VN it's still relatively new. I'm still not reading Chinese VN yet, but I guess there's some hidden potential in those kind of VNs.
