  1. That's so, so predictable, and I don't think anyone's wrong for thinking that. It will utterly fall apart for everything the author worked on surprising us.
  2. Tatsumi can't die, he's the protagonist With her name in the title it just makes me wonder if they're pulling a twist. One comic I know, The Walking Dead, the author has constantly hinted at killing his protagonist (Rick), as no one is safe. I'm just thinking Akame might head in a similar direction. So far they've been unpredictable. edit: The holy priest's foresight
  3. I say read the manga. I often get bored of the anime after I read the manga but this one... I watched episode 1 two more times after I read the manga. The anime does it really well and the musical score is epic. I get chills watching the opening preview trying to guess how they're going to portray that character. That is very odd. That makes you really try to guess what her importance is to the story. You know with a title like that, it's like they're setting it up for a Tastumi death. --- Akame is a bit cuter in the Manga I love dark black hair.
  4. I opened this thread and expected a joke with a punchline about Lolis.
  5. My first FC on hard. I will cherish this day forever!
  6. Anyone watching the anime or reading the manga right now? I'm personally obsessed with it right now. It looks like it's going to go down as another classic in the Berserk and Claymore genre but with moe characters. Can you guess her personality? edit*: The first 3 pages are full of spoilers. For the rest of the thread, please use tags. edit**: Forget the first warning. Everything here on out - proceed with caution.
  7. Point boosts to help you get a higher grade. Also you get friend points for each friend throughout the day, up to a certain amount of times. edit: or what Nosebleed said
  8. Neither is bad. You get used to it. 1. is preferable for me. I'm an introvert by nature and I'm happiest when I do projects alone. But in comfort? That's heaven. I'll send postcards and gifts to my loved ones throughout the year to let them know I'm alive and vice versa. Would you rather 1.) Live all your life in happiness while being lied to. 2.) Have the satisfaction of knowing everything while leading a broke and miserable life.
  9. Seeing as I'm one of the two with the largest walls, I assure you I meant to type a paragraph.
  10. Yeah but that's a lot closer than 9k to top 30s lol. On a side note, am I the only one who plays better after messing up a combo? I feel so tense when I'm on a long combo that I can breathe when I'm not thinking about it.
  11. Nevermind; I see the problem now. The number 9 blended into the word "Rank9" so I was looking at a missing digit, followed by a 0 and then 21.
  12. I've necroed a thread or two and they got hot replies for a few weeks. No one seemed to complain. I'm also sure I've asked several questions here that have been answered before without upsetting the status quo here. The thing is, there are always new members who are enthusiastic to answer. You finish a fresh VN and you want to do nothing more than to do discuss it. I'm not sure I've met an older member here who've moaned about the same old, same old. If they're that burned out, they're due for a vacation from here soon anyhow. But of course I've seen tons of those reactions you've mentioned on other forums.
  13. As you can see, I'm an oppai fan. Well I can breathe a little knowing I'll miss out on Nico. Though that smiley addition would've been nice... The reason I called it bracket was because, I'm 21 when I look in my rankings. But when I look in the first place rankings, everyone has tons of higher points and I'm nowhere seen on that list.
  14. Is nico worth spending gems to get? Im barely above 7k event points right now. And how do the event ranking rewards work? It says x2 nico if you get below 200 ranking or something. Im at 21 in my bracket.
  15. Ocd is a talent for reading in that case. I have impatient syndrome and skim through dialogues I feel don't add to my experience.
  16. Treat them with the respect your mother taught you. And like your mother taught you, if she disrespects you turn your nose elsewhere. There is no need to disrespect people or take disrespect from others. Opening doors, pulling out chairs, paying for dinner etc. manners are relative from culture to culture. Which is more appropriate: Shaking hands or a slight bow, it all depends where you're going. When in Rome.
  17. I've been on an Anime marathon since January when I left work due to medical leave. I had carpal tunnel syndrome and since my work uses 90% of that arm, there was nothing I could do. It's probably been around 10 years since I've returned to the Japanese scene. Anyhow, with all my free time I searched for all the greatest Anime hits that I've missed in between those years. I finally stumbled on the cover of Fate/Stay Night and Zero and thought they were nice covers. Not knowing which one to watch first, I did some research on the title and that was where I heard about the term "Visual Novels" for the first time. Unlike Light Novels that I've been wanting to read for awhile but couldn't due to language barrier, I was overjoyed that these Visual Novels have a fan base of translators behind them. In March I Googled Fate/Stay Night visual novel, and a post by Kaguya 50 VN's You should Play Before you Die came to the top. That's how I found Fuwanovel. I have to admit, the first time I saw that homepage, I was instantly captivated by its layout - O 'dat childish innocence. Those colorful, playful words drew me right in. I knew I was in the right place. Thus, Fate/Stay Night was downloaded and I was glued to my seat for a full week. What did I just read? The tears were so beautiful. I hadn't felt this touched by a story in so long. The feeling of being there every moment, living and breathing through the MC's eyes was unlike anything I've played before. Bliss, bliss, bliss was all on my mind. Being home out of work for extended periods had this collapsing affect on my well being. I was falling into a pretty bad depression. I was pretty close to getting married before I left work. All I could think about was my ex-fiance and Saber. Saber was so much more pure and loyal that when she disappeared in the end I cried for her while cursing my ex. Some people may not understand where my obsession with honorable female leads come from, but it's been a trust issue for me since. The second VN I played hit me with another impact. The serious nature of Fate/Stay night was replaced by Sengoku Rance's, detestable MC and his adventures. Ironically, this game pulled me out of my depression. Perhaps I just needed a kick in the rear and start seeing relationships in a more comical fashion. The game kept me constantly laughing. That, the pretty women and the truly addicting gameplay distracted me from any depressing thoughts. This game really was my saving grace. I still slipped in and out of depression after Sengoku Rance. More than two years ago my sister passed away. More than two years after that, I still wake up with nightmares related to her, wondering what am I doing with my life right now? Everyone around me's going to end up dead and long gone. The long hours drag by and your thoughts begin to wander into unnecessary deep and dark places. ---- Some VNs later I decided to reload up Sengoku Rance for more laughs. After doing every route, every accomplishment and discovering every H scene, I declared myself a true Rance fan. As weeks began passing, my shoulders began feeling lighter as I get more and more distracted from the memories of my ex. Replacing that depression has been a lot of anger. Anger is supposed to be healthy. It's when you wake up and understand that you are alive again. You no longer want to take it all for granted. But it's not healthy if the anger starts taking over you. I needed something to release my pent up anger. What I needed was exercise. And playing Grisaia No Kajutsu was what inspired me to take up running each day. The main character brought out the child inside me who always dreamed about being a super soldier when he was young. Each morning I wake up at 5 in the morning, do my running exercise and then make breakfast. I've added in more exercise routines as I've been feeling more fit to do so. I forgot to mention that somewhere there my Carpal Tunnel is about 100% gone. All that rest I receive at the beginning and the gradual exercise I've built up with my arms have made it vanished. I really have no excuse to be gone from work anymore. It's been about 6-7 months since I've been absent. I just wish I had more time to learn Japanese. My study came along really fluidly. Much faster than my study in Spanish due to motivation and love. I probably should worry about myself first, but if I have anything to spare I'd like to someday give back and spread joy.
  18. This might come as surprise but I really hated Takeru for most of Unlimited and Alternative. I know this was supposed to be a set up for the Storm Vanguard fight. I just really expected him to come back as a hardened Veteran. He's still a better option than Shinji Ikari.
  19. Congrats. Looks like I'm gonna miss out on it. I only have 6000 points right now. You guys have been playing this way too long. I'm still in the phase where I don't care as long as I get a new song.
  20. Maybe you've been consuming a lot of girls lately. She looks pretty hungry.
  21. It's in order from Yuela, Serawi, to Pink hair girl. You can still hop on to Serawi's route. She gives you some choice later, and you just have to reject her to continue Yuela's (given that you made the right choices.) If you rejected both of them, you're auto locked in Pink hair girl's route. In chapter 4 you can see the title based on which route you're in. These are the requirements you must fullfill before heading into Chap. 4 Yuela Route View Yuela's measurement scene (Aht lv 6 or Sharty lv 12) Uya joined (not just guest) Melodiana guest (or joined) View her event when given the option in chapter 2 or 3 source: http://games.seiha.org/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=102
  22. How much is not having enough money and how did that happen? I have about 500k coins I haven't found any use for. Not sure if I'll be using it all up any time soon for practices. But it hasn't been dropping anytime.
  23. Is there a point for me to keep maxed out level, maxed out bonds, idolized N cards if I have all the Rs to replace them?
  24. Guess I'll help
  25. This gives us a total of: 0.0005 or in percentage 0.05% This is value is higher because the chances of getting 2 URs in a 11 card draw is increased since you're doing so many repeated draws and the UR card will be in 2 of those draws (can be the 1st, 5th, 9th, etc, but they all account to increase probability) Math is fun (not really) I knew it was wrong but I threw out a number so you could figure it out for me.
