I think the age gap here is not as bad as say Rika and Terada-sensei from Cardcaptor Sakura (For the info Rika is engaged with Terada-sensei at 5th grade with Terada was at probably 34 yo (My assumption)). And speaking abut Cardcaptor Sakura, Osamu x Mitoko here would be the same as Sakura's parents love story in that the girl was a high school students with the male as the older one, and it's just nice that Osamu age here is as close as Mitoko's teacher in that it's almost mirrored Sakura's parents role before marriage. In the end, what I can say is that I think it's depend on each other whether they want to tolerate the age gap between the main couple or not, and therefore it's not really necessary to make a ruckus over this. Besides, it's not like it's the first work from Japan that portray the relationship between younger girl and the older man anyway. Also it's not nice to baiting someone who already firmed to not play this because of the age gap, and let's leave it at that.

Welcome to Fuwanovel, and feel free to ask for recommendations if you in need of those. I also hope that you'll have fun here.

I guess in the end Rewrite+ here is just a redundant release if the epilogue is the only one that got the story upgrade, seeing that it's only an almost minor part there. So perhaps waiting for Sekai version here might not worth the time looking from their track record, unless you really want to read the new translation (Which from what I see some people prefer to waiting).

Ummm.... I guess Pulltop only manage to get Konsora translator when they have the time to translate Akari's route. Too bad though seeing that I like Akari's casual clothes, but at least it's not as deal breaker to me compared to their mess back at 2013 (I remember that Pabloc wouldn't want to bother with this seeing that he dodn't want to touch Konosora anymore (Or something like that), so you'll need to tolerate the translation). Not that I'm going to get this anyway, seeing that it's FD and all.

I never pay attention much to the sex scenes to tell the truth, but if you ask me wht kind of variety that we need in the scenes I guess my answer here would be the clothes that the heroine wear when they have sex. It's optional though, although I won't deny that I dislike some instance when they wast the costume potential when they design the costume very sexy and yet we never see the heroine wear the costume during the sex scene (Looking at you Hapymaher).

Late to report this, but better late than never. The patch was finally released at Steam, and you can get that at the store page here. Have fun for playing Akari's route there, and if anything at least Pulltop couldn't cut the sex contents from Akari's route because there's none in the first place (I don't know though if Steam ask Pulltop to remove more content, but hopefully not).

Coincidentally I also binged several isekai manga, with some of them were still ongoing. My preference were generally the female MC just because we already have too much overpowered isekai male MC. As for the review, I'll try to do those later.

Welcome to Fuwanovel, and sorry for the belated greeting. As for Sei Shoujo VNs while I can't say that I favor the story in his works (I only interested with Lewdness and it's because the MC is the female), I appreciate your effort to port it to Ren'Py there so good luck on that. I hope that you'll have fun here.

Happy very belated 28th birthday to @Ranzo, and I hope you'll have a good year ahead.

Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and as for Mangagamer's announcements let's just say that it's still within my expectation in that it's smaller title although I wouldn't deny though that I also hoping there'll be some interesting title, which to their credits were took my slight interest here. Other than Mangagamer announcements, the other part of this week interest should be Trinoline release in which it's particularly notable because it's minori's VN who as we knew already ceased their operations, although it's nothing new though seeing that Mangagamer managed to released Suki Suki despite the same issue with Chuuablesoft (While I admit that Trinoline graphic is very good, I have more interest in the other release though). So overall this week is quite active and interesting compared to the last week because of the increased activity (ie releases and announcements), and let's see what I can write for this week as well (Also sorry for being late here, and I'll explain the title at PS later). For fan translation roundup, we have Eustia was at 67.10% translated, Loverable was at 63.3% edited, Tokihogushi was fully translated and at 9% edited, Watamasu was at 76% translated, and Summer Pocket was at 20.86% translated. I think that's all for this week fan translation updates, and hopefully Harugi can pick the pace of the translation again. Surprisingly we have the announcements from Sekai, although unfortunately it's not in regard of both of Majokoi and Nanairo because both of those VN still have engine work left (Don't ask me why Sekai have a hard time on their technical aspect). But instead they announced yet anther Nekonin VN which very creatively named Nekonin 3 (aka Sekai's 3rd secret project which currently at halfway translated), and they also announced the release date for Nekonin 2 Plus at 26th later. While Nekonin's fans might celebrate the addition of three new girls into Nekonin franchise, I'll just say that I prefer them focusing on getting better Whirlpool title like Suzukaze no Melt. It can't be helped I guess, and that's all for Sekai's section here. Mangagamer For the announcements, they went to two conventions and they announced two title at Boston and one title at Sakuracon. Before going to the announcements, let me say that Mangagamer announced that they'll release Hapymaher hardcopy at May 23rd later which at least indicate that Hapymaher's sales is quite successful and that we might get the FD (More like my personal wishful thinking though admittedly). Even though the hardcopy release still redundant to me, but at least it mean that there's some fans who want to collect Hapymaher's hardcopy so it mean that the sales of Hapymaher itself might be quite good. For both of Boston's announcement, I guess I can say it in one sentence in that both of those were nukige and following Nekopara's trend with catgirl cafe. As for my interest, I'll go with WanNyan A La Mode just because it follow KKPC titling and their alternative waitress costumes are quite sexy (Not to mention the staffs use the costumes wisely for the sex scenes unlike Hapymaher). That said while both VNs did have nice arts in the end both of those are still nukige, so obviously we wouldn't have the epic story from those VNs. Also it's important to note that the developer for both of their announcements is from the same group, and coincidentally also the same parent group as Kimisora and Midori no Umi developer (SkyFish). I'm sort of wonder though whether the staffs did put their localization plan in wrong folder for both of Midori no Umi and Kimisora, in which two of those were localized by infamous Sakura Games. In the end, I guess it's good if SkyFish want to be Mangagamer's partner. For more info, both of the announcements were turned out to be the secret projects, with WanNyan as the fifth secret project and the other (NyanCafe) as the third secret project. Sakuracon's announcement from Mangagamer is Ciconia, which is new When They Cry franchise work by Ryuukshi07. As for When They Cry franchise, what we know is that it's involved scary murder at multiple time and more importantly each work did have eight parts to tell the story. While granted both of Higurashi and Umineko is full of murders and horror, in the end the writer's interest is more in regard of wars and weaponry (Which is evident since Higurashi) so it's normal if Ciconia here did have the premise revolving the upcoming Fourth World War. While the scale is bigger compared to both of previous series, in the end there's still some conspiracies lurk behind seeing that the group of friends themselves were merely being a pawn (Probably just like Higurashi), and not to mention a certain promise from our Witch of Miracle back at Umineko's end. While the premise sounds juicy here, unfortunately I'm not quite fond of Ryuukishi's art here and not to mention he probably will release this in parts (Should be eight), so even though it'll be simultaneously released in August Comiket later I decided to hold back on this for now (It'll took probably four years to complete the whole story). This week release from Mangagamer is Trinoline, which once again was minori's VN. I think I already tell the the circumstance behind the release, so I'll just write abut the VN here. As for Trinoline itself, the premise is that we have our MC Shun along with his blind sister managed to befriended two girls, at least until an incident cause Shun's sister to pass away. Time pass, and after 10 years later Shun was getting a surprise that he'd join an experiment in regard of the android, and as for the experiment itself Shun was told to live together with an android which resembled her dead sister that got the sister's memories and was created by one of the girl in his childhood (Sara). From there, Shun must dealt with the dliemma whether he should treat the android as his sister or not. While at first it looks like a sci-fi story, in the end I would say that we better enjoy it as the drama (Especially nakige) because that's what minori excel at (Even though to be fair the sci-fi aspect not quite bad so far). Get that from Mangagamer store or Steam store here if you've been interested with Trinoline, and have fun. As usual recently Mangagamer will announced their next month release whenever they released a VN, and there's no exception with Trinoline release here. As for the next month release, it's Damekoi in which I've been waiting for it ever since back at AX 2017. For the exact date, it'll be released at May 16th later so you may note that date if you've been looking forward for the release. Personally I still think that it's unnecessary if Mangagamer chose the newer version instead of just released the older version, but I guess what's done is done seeing that the release date is almost close. Other This week we have three releases from this section, although only one though that was interesting to me here. We also have both of Konosora's Akari's DLC release (I'll talk about it at next VNTS Review) and HGB Steam release, in which the latter did prove that Steam is quite fickle although granted they also banned Rance VI as well so I guess it's sort of balanced out. While this is a good news in that NekoNtyan still be able to use Steam for their future products, the fact still remain though that Steam itself is quite fickle when it come to banning the game. I guess someone on Steam may suddenly have a common sense and decided to try both of HGB and Rance VI, and find out that HGB is not as bad as they make out when they banned it. In the end, I guess it's good for Steam users who didn't purchase it from NekoNyan's store now that we have HGB being released on Steam back at 18th, and hopefully Steam would be more consistent with their ban in the future (Quite hard to fulfill I know). The first release is Breeding Village in which it'll tell the story about the MC who came to a rural village that was scarcely populated, and all of the populations are the widows to boot. From there the MC decided to help the widows to give birth to their children, so that the village might be prosper with the population increase and that the MC could be proud on his acheivement. Or the MC can just have fun with the widows in all sort of ways, because Breeding Village here is a nukige which was released by Cherry Kiss Games. Go get the nukige from their store if you interested and have fun. The second release is Our World is Ended in which it's another PQube VNs, with the premise the seven people who is a part of the game developer who trapped inside the augmented reality. To make it worse, in the augmented reality the group were encounter the characters and creatures from their games which about to break into the real world, and so they need to prevent their creations to break out the augmented reality. As for the release, currently it's for console only (At both of PS4 and Switch), but PQube will also release this for PC at May 28th later. In any case, I'll just pass on this even though the premise looks interesting because the PC port might not allowed mouse useage just like back at Shibuya Scramble. The third and final release is Shirokoi aka Nurse Love Syndrome in which it's from the same series as Hakuai, and obviously from the same developer (KOGADO). Also like Hakuai, Shirokoi here is also focusing on the nurse life only that unlike Hakuai the MC (Kaori (Who is quite cute to me)) here is a new nurse who directly work in the hospital after she graduated from the nursing school. Of course we'll also have GL story here just like Hakuai, and in this case Kaori can have the relationship with six girls although there'll be no sex scenes for obvious reason. For more premise our Kaori here did have accident and that she's the only survivor because her parents were killed in that accident, and from there she decided to become the nurse because she's grateful for their effort to save her. While I don't know whether the routes will be as dramatic as Hakuai or not, at least I can say that Kaori's initial backstory and her reason to become the nurse is more dramatic compared to Asuka. In the end, both Shirokoi and Hakuai here are good games and have their own merit. So if you want to try it, you can get that at the Steam store here and have fun. I think that's all for this week even though I'm quite late for the review, and see you next week. PS - For the title, I'd combined both of two of this week releases. As for the 'Love Syndrome' part it's from Shirokoi's English title, while for the 'Android' part it's from Trinoline in which it have the android as one of the main characters.

Turned out I got my wish in that the announcements would be the secret projects, because all of their Anime Boston announcements are the secret projects (To be exact, WanNyan is the third secret project while NyanCafe is the fifth). If you ask me what's my interest here, I would say WanNyan just from the heroines alternative costumes alone (Although SkyFish priority is wrong though if they leave their nukige to Mangagamer while they left their serious VNs to SakuraGames). About Ciconia, I guess we'll going to have both of Bernkastel and Lambadelta and that we'll going have seven other parts releases after Summer Comiket later (Looking from Higurashi and Umineko), so not quite interested for now. tldr - I only have slight interest in WanNayan, quite normal on NyanCafe, and cautious on Ciconia. My final comment is that the announcements as expected are quite small, so obviously Mangagamer will save their bigger announcements for both of AX and Otakon later (I hope that one of their later big announcements would be Hapymaher FD seeing that they'll release Hapymaher hardcopy at May 23rd later, which mean at least Hapymaher is quite successful (Probably)).

Since there's Himawari recommendation, I'll follow up by recommending Island (From the same writer). Other than Island, I guess you can try Hakuai (Beware of the bad endings), Fata Morgana (It might be too depressing though), and Dracu Riot. I hope my rcommendations here would be helpful to you.

Well I guess it's good to know that Discord also have their own store (I just know that it's already been there since last August), although I mostly use Discord just to chat anyway. As for the Sol Press decision, it might be good if they have more than one storefront especially with Sekai being fickle here, so hopefully there'll be no disruption when Sol Press use Discord as their store (I don't know though if Discord store will be there for a longer time or not).

Late to the party, and as for the recommendation I think Nagisa from Koiresort could be qualified as the older heroine. Other than that, there's Mari from White Album 2, Nanako from Loverable, and Misasa along with Sera from Lovely x Cation (If you don't mind being untranslated). I hope my recommendations here would be helpful to you.

Let's see, as for the recommendations in case you still didn't play it yet I'll go with Eien no Aselia, Seinarukana, Eiyuu Senki, Evenicle (All of those four are gameplay), 11eyes, Koiken Otome, Dracu Riot, Aoishiro, and Pygmalion (The latter two have GL elements). I hope my recommendations here would be helpful to you.

Happy Easter too, and no I didn't have much troble with spiders other than occasionally they made a nest in my room (And it's only a small one).

From the list, I only noticed BEM remake, Symphogear 5th season, and Sounan desu ka (With the premise the girls were stranded into a deserted island). For the rest, well I didn't look into it much for now.

Good video for newbie there, so thanks for that. Keep in mind though that some translated VNs didn't compatible with Sagaoz save, usually from Mangagamer newer releases in that they like to port the VN into their own engine (Unity).

Fixed. As for Shirokoi, from what I'd heard it's a good VN although graphic wise Hakuai is better though. Unfortunately I can't find Shirokoi's review out there, but I think it'll be a good VN. As for Trinoline, what I can say is that you better try it first before decide to buy it or not, but if you already buy both of Shirokoi and HGB then it's okay. What I can comment in regard of Trinoline for now is that the art is very good and pleasing, as expected of minori.

As promised here's the data for this VN here, and I already provided the poll above. For the general opinion about Trinoline here, from what I gather it' response is quite mixed with the opinion leaned towards negative. I can guess why though because back then minori was about to face the inactivity, and therefore the staffs might need to focused on the other matter (Other than writing). Another matter of the complain is the MC who apparently to some review is quite worthless, so perhaps you may expect him to be like HatsuKoi's Yuuma if it can help you. You may also note on the big breasts on the heroine, because it looks like minori decided to enlarge their heroines breasts ever since their failure at ambitious Supipara. What I can comment on the graphic is that at least they keep their standard there (If anything it make the big breasted heroines in here is looks less ridiculuous compared to Wagahigh), although perhaps it's at the cost of the story. As for the reviews, there's three. One is from Mangagamer's Translator Corner, another one is from Kiriririri, and another one is from Joyjason. What I can say is that Joyjason here is the most critical one and have a lot of spoiler, so if you didn't mind harsh opinion you can check his review. After reading the review and see some of VNDB comments, what I can say that perhaps you can treat this as moege nakige hybrid with a lot of sex scenes instead of proper nakige if you find the character development is lacking (While Trinoline did have some long sex scenes (minori been did that since their Supipara project was failed as well), the story is still thete so I wouldn't be harsh like Joyjason here in that he instantly call it nukige). I'll talk about the heroines later, so I think that's all for now.

Yeah as the title said it's already been released today so have fun if you already get it. Feel free to discuss it here, and I'll add more data and poll for this VN later.

I'm content with the news, and what I can say for now is that Damekoi here is an interesting VN from what I'd read so hopefully it could get more recognition.

As for Konosora, there's a retranslation patch from the fans and of course it's available with uncensored H scenes, so you can apply the restoration patch to your Konosora there. As for the same art with Chrono Clock, I would say that Hapymaher is the best choice seeing that it's from the same company (Purple Software). For more recommendations, you can visit all four of my blogposts below although I also did write both of Saku Saku and Chrono Clock recommendations though. Lastly welcome to Fuwanovel and I hope you'll have fun here. PS - As promised, here's the link to my blogposts below. 2015 Translated VNs 2016 Translated VNs 2017 Translated VNs 2018 Translated VNs

First of all, here's the link to the announcements here. Mangagamer 2019 Announcements As for the title, we'll going to get the title from two new partners in Boston. While for now we obviously still wouldn't know the title, I just hope that it would be three of the secret projects. Although for now I won't expect something big though, because mostly Mangagamer would announced nukige if we look at the past years. Let's see it for later, and here's the announcements below (I'll update it later obviously). Anime Boston Announcement 1 - NyanCafe Macchiato Kouya’s life is full of misfortune. Every company he works for ends up going bankrupt and his apartment went up in flames. Now he’s a lecturer-in-training at Kaminekosaka Academy and also helps out at his grandfather’s neko cafe Nekotama-ya, which is staffed by three beautiful girls: the energetic Mike, the timid Ameri and the milady Persia. All three of them had feelings for him, and due to his misfortune, they all confessed to him at the same time. He didn’t want to lose this lucky chance and they all ended up spending the night together as a foursome. The next morning was the beginning of a new relationship between the four of the them, with all three girls being his lover at the same time! Announcement 2 - Wan Nyan A La Mode PochiTama Pâtissière Academy is an extremely prestigious school, known for graduating top class pâtissières and western confectionary artisans. Getting into the school is easy, however it’s said that actually graduating is very difficult. The school is actually not just limited to Japan either, it has branches all over the world. And only the best trainees amongst the students are invited over to the main school. Those that were invited have to stay on the main campus for a few weeks as they run their own stores, controlled by the school. Then 2 MVPs will be chosen from their ranks which will be allowed to train at one of several famous stores around the world. In other worlds, it’ll be the first foothold they can get to travel the world. Naturally, each of the students will do their very best to get nominated as one of those MVPs. Now, what role will our protagonist have in this story? Which store will you work for? And who will you befriend? Sakuracon Announcement - Ciconia In Ciconia When They Cry, World War 3 has come and gone, with nuclear winter only narrowly avoided with cutting-edge technology leading to the development of a new ultimate military technology, the Gauntlet, which allows those wielding one to fly like fighter jets, fight like battleships, and repel attacks like tanks without any additional equipment. The Gauntlets require particular talent and special training administered from a young age in order to control, and the young boys and girls capable of mastering of them become known as Gauntlet Knights.The main characters of Ciconia When They will be a group of these young Gauntlet Knights who, after the peaceful competition in the International Battle Standard Festival, become fast friends vowing to prevent world war together. However, world events are leading directly to World War 4 like a cascading row of dominos, and these “main characters” are nothing but pawns in the global games played by those with a right to sit at the table. Will these youth be forced to murder each other? Can the tragedy of war be prevented by mere pawns? Who are the real players in these games, and will you, the fans of When They Cry, fight for your seat at this deadly game? Anime Central Announcement - Imouto Paradise 3 (Image in the spoiler because NSFW) With their parents departing on a business trip, Yuuichi was left alone with his five imoutos for the entire summer vacation. He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to be closer to his imoutos, and they were also strangely assertive, leading to ecchi incidents one after another. Just how far will the Nanase siblings go? PS - Here's the schedule for all of conventions below. Anime Boston - Booth: Hall A, 207 & 209 Panel: Friday, April 19th at 21:30 (GMT -4) in Hynes Panel 311 Sakuracon - Booth: 614 Panel: Friday, April 19th at 22:00 (GMT -7) in Panels 3 Anime Central - Booth #304 Panel: "The Now and Future of Visual Novels" May 17th, 21:00 - 22:30 (GMT -5) in Panel Room 6

As for the title, since we have Phoenix Wright trilogy and Corpse Party spin off releases on the PC, I decided to combined the element from both of the two title (Turnabout from Phoenix Wright (All Phoenix Wright (Or rather Ace Attorney) did have the word 'Turnabout' in all of their chapters) and Birthday from Corpse Party spinoff), so we have title here wouls be 'Turnabout Birthday'. I know that there's a fanfic called Turnabout Birtday as well, although of course this is obviously not the review of the fanfic. Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and sorry for being late here. As for this week other than aforementioned two relesses here, we have several updates from both of Sekai and Mangagamer with the latter really like the secret projects a bit too much. For the release, what I can comment is that at least graphically wise Phoenix Wright is improved (Still tedundant release though) and that Corpse Party spin off did use the same seiyuu back at PSP version (I like it because most of them are big names like Kitamura Eri or Sawashiro Miyuki). Let's see what I can write in this week as well. We have Date Alive release month estimation, and apparently it'll be at June later. Still not interested at it, but at least I know that the anime itself is well known even with the season 3 first episode was quite infamous because of the bad animation. We also have a surprise update from Sekai, and that update is that we already have Baldr Sky was already at 90% done for both of the translation and the editing works. While this is a good news, unfortunately seeing that it's Sekai I'm very wary about that here, because after all they managed to freeze both of Dracu Riot and Tenshin Ranma even with those two were completed. Oh and don't forget that it's still not clear whether it'll be censored or not, although it'll be bad for them though if Sekai censored it per GIGA's request because there's no console version for Baldr Sky like Dies Irae. Other than Baldr Sky update, we have Sekai did add another secret project (The 4th one) and for both of translation and the editing were already at 46%. At this rate I would like to call Mangagamer as secretive company, because they decided to add one more secret projects so now we have six secret projects from them. Although apparently they'll announce three new title at the conventions later (With two of those from new developer), so hopefully all of those were the secret projects. For the secret projects series progress roundup, the first was at 72% edited, the second was fully edited, the third was at 32% edited, the fourth was fully translated, the fifth was at 67% translated along with 57% edited, and the sixth was at 54% translated along with 4% edited. For now I'm obviously don't know what's their secret projects is, but if you ask me what I'm hope here then I'll say that personally I hope that one of the projects is Evenicle 2. Other than secret projects series update, we have Sona-Nyl was at 98% translated (Almost complete) and Kyonyuu Fantasy 2 was fully edited. Some of the other updates were already finished the testing (Hashihime and Amrilato), while there's some that were just enterimg the testing (Minagoroshi, Haretaka (I like it), and Maghot Baits (Good luck to the tester)). There's also Bokuten that was finalizing the Steam version, so hopefully it mean that the release time is almost close after years in editing hell. We have Eustia was at 66.49% translated, Loverable was at 62.36% translated, Watamasu was at three quarter translated, Tokihogushi was at 95% translated, 5,965 lines from Pure x Connect were translated while 2,887 lines were edited, and for Rhapsody we have Mistoria's route was at 30% translated while we have New Game+ and append contents was at 40% translated. I think that's all for fan translation section here. That's all for this week VNTS Review, and sorry for being short here. See you next week.
