Agreed. I feel like that possibly could've been handled better. It's weird that on this after route, they introduce several new characters and just kind of bundle them up as a harem route on the last chapter of the last game in the series. Still, no complaints. They seem interesting from what exceedingly little I've seen of them.

From the look of the CG Set, Margit's Route comprises like half the friggin' game and is her entire military battalion. Takae has less than two pages of CGs on hitomi, and Margit's whole thing has like eight out of twelve pages.

Come to think of it, a main page Percentage Update would probably help calm everyone down. Doesn't seem like that's been updated since you guys started on A. Even if it isn't quite so bragworthy, it doesn't hurt. Unless you plan to just up and say 'It's done!' out of the middle of nowhere.

Huh, interesting little trivia. The seiyuu for Benkei is the same seiyuu for Aisha/Kan'U from the Koihime Musou games. A1 English patch confirmed, has full support of manager for Shin Koihime Musou translation. Majikoi X Koihime Musou coming soon.

Eh, everybody gets sick of a single project or goal after some point.

A5 is the last confirmed one, and considering how long it's taking, I don't see an A6 being announced in the immediate future. So A4-A5 would probably be the last one. For right now, anyway.

Huh. I made a joke on....VNDB, I think. I was under the impression that you guys would take a several month break before starting A-1, and the joke was something like "We're going to get A-1 in English before A-5 ever comes out." Did not think I'd be accurate unintentionally.

I can see why they were getting tired of the H-scenes, good God. I'm honestly disappointed the after stories didn't include more sweet moments and dates. It was mostly just 'Let's go here and bone!' Still, I did 100% this one. It was fun, though the final bit with Takae made me realize A5 has been on hold for seven months now, and A1 in English also isn't in the immediate future. Now I need something new to do with this "life" thing.

In all fairness, sex scenes are boring as hell to work on. Like, the most boring part of working on a visual novel nine times out of ten. Also, congrats on the completion! I was hopeful this would come with the uncensored patch, but I can live without.

A slightly different way to call QC'ers would be beta testers. It's all quality. Making sure that no typos slipped through, everything sounds fine, the game runs fine in English all the way, stuff like that. The Majikoi titles are loooong. It may sound easy to do some of the more basic stuff, but you still have to analyze thousands and thousands of lines, all while needing to know what is proper spelling and punctuation.

From one group to another, best of luck. Majikoi is a fun VN, so I'm looking forward to the sequel. Also frankly glad that this isn't coming out for a bit, I didn't move for two days after the first title came out. Getting absorbed in another VN so soon would be terrible for all that real life stuff I'm ignoring.

It's definitely not harder, just different. It is nice that VN's are generally easier than regular video games. Out of my 40+ reviews though, only five or six have been of visual novels. Sometimes going from a fighting game to a VN can be a bit complicated.

That's one part of visual novel reviews that still throws me off. Instead of a standard story-gameplay formula, it would be story-characters.

I feel like this list is lacking, but here are some of my VN reviews. http://b-ten.com/?s=retro+goat+reviews

Mine are currently written reviews, though I do intend to do video reviews as well. Most of the 18+ VN's I review are the ones where the plot is much more important than the sex, like Kara No Shoujo. I'm willing to do obscure ones, I just really haven't yet.

I feel like my popularity must be lacking... I'm a professional game journalist, and one of the first to do visual novel reviews. My latest one was My Girlfriend is the President because JAST wanted me to, and I've done half a dozen VN reviews for various gaming sites. While I sob and plug myself for visual novel fans to follow me, I'll help out however I can as well. Just ask, I've been doing reviews for a few years now. It would be nice if you guys supported me as well. I have to fight with higher ups to post reviews since the 18+ nature isn't favorable for general gaming sites, and showing that there is a loyal fanbase would help a lot. https://www.facebook.com/theretrogoat

Just to let everyone know, the original SKM forum isn't gone. We simply moved to Ongoing Projects. The link is down below. We don't use this forum as much, so it would be best to post on the other one. That gets checked daily. https://forums.fuwanovel.net/index.php?/topic/3435-shin-koihime-musou-translation-project/

That would be pretty cool as well as pretty easy. I've personally been looking for a couple TL Checkers for a bit but the only people that would know that are the ones that read SKM related forums.

Ohh, that's a need idea. Can you elaborate on it?

The forums we've got going on do make working pretty easy, all things considered. Just a random idea that came to mind would be to have a "job" section to post recruitment requests in general, instead of posting it on a current forum or creating a new one. I haven't given the idea a tremendous amount of thought, but it could be pretty useful to be able to just post job recruitments somewhere. As for somebody posting recruitment request on VNAer, how exactly would that work?

I won't speak for MangaGamer, since our only pairing is for the game we're not done with yet (Shin Koihime Musou) but while we've yet to negotiate any compensation, the team has mostly agreed that we just want free copies of the game we did this much work on. So if they're cool with that, I have no complaints.

If that doesn't work on you, why would it work on him?

Nope, I'm using XP. Which is also listed as compatible. I talked to Doddler, but he's out of ideas on what my issue could be.
