Riku

By the way, which version should I read? Trinity, or the original?

If you're fine with ebooks, Bookwalker. You can either read with their Web Reader or their app. (PC and or Smartphone/tablet)

And finished! (Well, still have the Another Story part, but it's aside from the Main story, so i'm posting my opinion now) It was good. Or more like, good and sometimes awesome. Leyline 1: Good, but nothing outstanting, as it's the game supposed to make you discover the world of the VN. CGs are beautiful, and BGMs are kinda nice too. Leyline 2: The background was set in the first game, so it can go deeper. A little like the first one at first, then it quickly becomes better going deeper in the story. The revelations are amazing and the end really emotional. CGs are beautiful as always, and the new BGMs are nice, particulary Vanish. Leyline 3: To be honest, I liked the atmosphere of the second game better, but I really liked it too, and Ushio is just too cute in this one. My only complaint is that, well, you know. Anyway, really liked the end, it was beautiful! CGs are eye candy as always, with a few REALLY beautiful ones, and really liked the Ley-Line BGM. Anyway, all in all really liked this trilogy. Plot holes aside, the mysteries were cool. I really liked the humour and the characters, thought I would have liked Koga to be more proactive sometimes, but he's not bad at all. Ushio is a given, and Omaru (Yeah, well, once you're used to it...) and Shizuka are really well developed. So yeah, time well spent! Now, I did Kisaragi Gold Star, Natsuiro Recipe (well, only Yuzu's route), and the three Ley Line in succession, so guess I'll rest a few days before playing the next one. I wonder what I'll read next... (I also have Sora no Kiseki the 3rd to do, hope I'll be able to finish everything before Dies Irae)

Thanks for answering, but I thought the same thing at first, but here is the problem:

So, couldn't resist and just finished Leyline 2! And, dayum, it was good! Really liked all the revelations at the end, though I have a question: Anyway, good stuff, starting Leyline 3 tomorrow!

Dropped Natsuiro and started the first Leyline. It seems that many people find the side routes a waste of time, so should I still read them, or pass them and go back after finishing the trilogy? Do they add to the story overall so it's better to read them? EDIT: Searching a little told me that it wouldn't add to the story, it would even contradict it. So, yeah, might go back and skim through them quickly at the end. EDIT 2: Finished it (True Route). Well, like often said, it was good but not outstanding. Love the art and the comedy is quite good. Really hyped for Leyline 2! (Thought it'll have to wait until wednesday or even thursday, as I'll be busy until then)

I've been wanting to read the trilogy for a while, but because it's going to be translated I set it aside. But considering how the first one isn't even out after all this time, I think I'll try to read them before Dies Irae comes out. Also, like I posted yesterday, I'm reading Natsuiro Recipe right now, and while the backgrounds are beautiful, it's pretty boring for now... Should have rested a little after Kisaragi, now I kinda want something with action.

So, it's been more than a month and I still didn't read RuiTomo's FD. Instead, I read what I wanted to read since finishing Hatsuyuki Sakura, Kisaragi Gold Star. And well, I was disappointed It's not bad, it's just so average and sometimes almost boring. It does have good scenes and good comedy, but it's not enough to make it a great VN. I heard the True Route was really good and was really disppointed. The comedy was truly great, but the route itself wasn't that amazing. Anyway, in the end it's just my opinion, so some people might like it more than me. The thing is, though, that now, aside from Floral Flowlove I don't feel like reading another Saga Plantes VN... As for the next VN I'll read, as I have tests next week, I guess I'll read something short and light hearted amongst the VNs I have: Natsuiro Recipe, or Yomegami, or World Election or Okiba ga Nai. I guess it'll most likely be Natsuiro Recipe as apparently only one route is worth reading, so it'll be quick to read. And yeah, dunno if I'll really read RuiTomo's FD one day...

As a fan of the Ace Attorney series, I've been interested in this VN, so this review confirms that I have to play it! I tried the trial quickly to see what was hookable and what wasn't. Unfortunately, the proofs, information and profils, as well as choices (well, sometimes the first one is hooked) aren't hookable. I can more or less understand what's written when it's not hooked, but can't go too far with the only 600~ kanji I know. So yeah, I guess I'll wait before reading it. Ah, but, it's because I want a more complete experience, so people who don't care about reading what's written on the proofs/choices/etc can still read/play it, as you get what it's about when they talk, and you get as much chances as you want to present proofs. Also, the sentences are shorts and easy to understand (didn't read much, want to preserve the experience for later), so if you're interested (and a Ace Attorney fan), go for it!

Just try. Like, really, you won't know until you try reading one. Here's a list, if you don't know what to choose: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KnyyDt7jimEz-dgeMSKymRaT2r3QKBPm9AzqZ6oUWAs/pub This one too:

Well, couldn't get myself to go through RuiTomo's FD, but instead I read Chrono Clock. Well, what to say? It was better than I expected. Really liked the comedy in the prologue and common. Liked the routes less, but still enjoyable. Then comes Cro's (Kuro) route. It has the thing I both love and hate in it. And now I guess I should really read RuiTomo's FD before I really become unable to bring myself to do it. Though it'll have to wait a few days, as I have things to do.

Is it possible to put the 'reincarnation into isekai' in the same category? After all, it's almost the same, just that they have another body. There's also the 'recall memories from my past life' type. I like the genre, or rather, there are just so many LNs/WNs about it that you're bound to find something you like amongst them.

And finished! The True route was really good and I really enjoyed it. (Well, there were moments I was kinda frustrated by what happens, but that's mainly because we know things from the other routes, so it's a little frustrating to see the characters struggle) Now, the thing is I'm kinda satisfied with the ending (Aside from "that", but overall it does make it better rather than an ultimate happy ending), and I'd want to read the FD only for Megumu and Yenfei. Is it really worth it? Does it really add to the story? Also, considering the word play of the title, I wonder why Rui wasn't the main heroine? Was kinda sad she degraded to naïve hungry girl after the first route made you like her. :/

Just finished Iyo's route. That's what I was waiting for! Damn now I'm hyped for the True (Akaneko) route! Though, if I had to say, I was disappointed by the romance in this route. The fact that I didn't particulary like Iyo aside, nothing really happens to make "straight Iyo" fall for "girl Tomo", and the romance in itself wasn't good. (imo) Tomorrow (well, today now) is a pretty busy day, so I guess I should be able to finish wednesday. Then fandisc, really want to do Yenfei and Megumu's routes!

Well, in the end I couldn't wait this summer like I said in @Clephas' review of Suisei Ginka, and I started reading Ruitomo. I just finished Rui's route. To be honest, while it's not boring (I liked the banter of the characters), the story isn't really entertaining either. I know it's only the first route and it really begins to deliver with Iyo's route, but when I know I'll have to play Atori and Koyori's routes first which most people say are under the rest, I'm a little reticent to read them. Well, at least the dialogues are good. Now, about the reading difficulty, while I can understand what I read (Well, mostly), I'm sure I must have missed quite a number of between the lines meaning. Well, I guess that if I end up really liking the VN, it gives one more reason to re-read it once my Japanese is better.

Finally got a Vita and just finished Tales of Innocence R. Was my first game in Japanese without any help (Hearts, Destiny PS2, Destiny 2 and Rebirth have a translation script), and while I didn't understand everything, I'm rather glad about how much I understood. (I would say between 50 and 70%, perhaps?) So yeah, I'm far from playing the Eiyuu Densetsu series... (Zero and Ao in particular, but the three Sora Evolution too)

Let's hope there will. Then I guess I'll start with Ruitomo. Well, not now, still have thing to do. Most likely this summer. Don't really want to try DDC now, would be a shame to not understand everything given how it's praised.

And another Akatsuki Works VN added to the backlog. Perhaps I should really try reading one instead of thinking I should wait to have a better Japanese. Which one is the easiest? Also, it's not on VNDB, or this time the protagonist isn't voiced?

Just finished S;G 0 yesterday, and while I agree with you, I must say it's count still fine as more characterisation. The main problem, I think, is the end of Steins;Gate 0. They mainly adapt (with differences) the Epigraph Trilogy, but they don't adapt the Drama CD that came with it... So when you finish the game you have one big question, you search it on the internet, then you love the community that gave you the answer. Yeah, you can complete your experience of Steins;Gate thanks to the community. I mean, how the hell are you supposed to know that there is a Drama CD between the end of S;G 0 and "that" moment in Steins;Gate? So I was disappointed by S;G 0's end. But it was still good from a S;G fanboy point of view, so I still liked it. Hope they will tie the loose ends in the anime, mainly what happens between 0 and S;G.

I don't care about the girls, why Capt' is 6th!? At least Gen-san is 2nd, so it's fine.
