Deep Blue

try using fuwabulous, i'm not having any problems with it even when browsing in a really slow old notebook

i live with my parents my situation is really shitty you wouldnt believe me and I had a girlfriend for 5 years broke up and then had 2 relationships (really bad ones but oh well), so it is possible if I was able to do it anyone can although winning the lotto sounds really good.

I never said you should die without touching a woman just said that you should wait a bit longer

all that talk about bukkake has made me hungry (yes the word comes from there)

is nice to see eden in the second position

Congrats and with 5 days left

To be fair most of the English dubs are bad (or even horrendous) because they hire random amateur people to do the jobs, specially in rpgs and let's not even talk about OELVN... there are some pretty amazing English VAs out there , just look at the team that fromsoftware hires for the souls series, Naughty Dog (with uncharted and last of us) BioWare and almost all of their rpgs (from baldurs or nevewinter to mass effect) Obsidian even with their bad titles like alpha protocol.. In japanese is actually hard to find a bad VA (those surely have high pitched voices but I don't think their acting is bad) so far I only hate one actress and she seems to be in every single vn that I like or it is written by Kataoka (which I like too) and she is always the protagonist...probably is some kind of fixation that kataoka has with her xD

sorry but that's a really shitty thing to ask, why would you take away money from one project to put it into another one? We also told you several times that it will make it but you just don't listen to anyone and now ask this kind of thing :/

I don't think so but that's just me, I guess it depends on each person.

having your first time with a hooker sucks, I wouldn't recommend it and I'm sure you will regret it later on, I mean you've waited for 23 a little longer won't kill you.

some of us here have been waiting for longer , your chinpo will survive for another few years without problem

your wifu will come to you eventually if she really loves you

happy birthday eclipsed and madvanced ( a bit late but )

the chances of winning the lottery even if it was in the same place where you live are scarse to say the least...don't be depressed about that xD

that's a lot of reading for a yuri nukige vns 21 vns for let's round it in 5 hours each (some of them are 10-30hrs but whatever) that gives us a total of at least 105hrs of pure yuri love... ...... ..... .... ... .. .

everything will be decided in the last 2 days, specially the last 24 hours but still I don't know, the first one im sure the second one not so much, let's hope it does.

yeah VAs takes most of the time while reading a vn, for example in a combat scene, in let's say f/sn, if you just read it it will take 5-10 min but watching it with the voice acting takes a lot more, I mean Saber saying excalibur takes as much as just reading a couple of sentences alone but where is the fun in watching that scene without her awesome scream? Although I know a lot of people that actually dislike VAs in vns and they play it voiceless all the time, a waste if you ask me, I can understand that in some vns but in sharin no kuni for example, without Satou Masayoshi the character of Houzuki just wouldnt be the same, is one of those cases where the actor actually gives the character life and after that you cant have one without the other, even if the character on its own is amazing something would still be missing without it.

at this pace we will reach the first stretch goal

I don't want to turn this into "who read faster" or "who has it bigger" I don't give a crap about that, but the truth is if I read at my normal speed I have to wait a while until the dialog of the character end because reading most of the time is a lot faster than speaking in a normal conversation, specially if the scene is with a tone of drama, because of the acting.

this video explains it really well, how pure fan-service (in this case nukige) can actually be a beneficial thing for a company and also talks about piracy so it's a win win video to watch everyone has different opinions and tastes, but this novel is just crap speaking objectively and subjectively

I guess you don't take your time to enjoy and miss the voice acting in the vns then, which in my opinion is a huge part along with the music.

Hirata Kaine in a profile (or maybe not because of spoilers) Tsubaki Hirofumi from yume miru kusuri Daru was really cool on steins;gate sunohara and akio in clannad

Be aware that this is more of me telling you the story than a proper review, so if you want to read this novel then don't read this "review" This is the story of four girls, some of them are going through some really hard stuff in their life trying to live with it the best way they can while the rest of the girls are going to have their lives changed very soon... and not in a good way. The novel begins with Mihama Yomi, the first protagonist presented in the novel, she is being raped by her stepfather and later on even by some strangers. Everyday she wishes for her nightmare to end but she cannot escape or go anywhere so she just bares it hiding all her pain inside. She goes to the school everyday hiding all the bad things that are happening in her house and life, her best friend Yuzuriha Kanon is not aware of anything but she really loves and care for her, still clueless of everything she can't help her. (Yomi asking herself how much longer the hell will continue) On the other side we have Koushou Aika, she is the typical clueless and kindhearted girl, the one that can mistake a love letter with a duel letter. Isami Ritsu is her best friend and she is like a tomboy, she is really sharp and witted, she really cares about Aika and acts as a mother for her. At one point, Aika receives an anonymous love letter, to make the story short, she meets with the guy (lets call him Pepe because I forgot his name) which ends up being the most popular boy in the school, he has a band and all the girls are in love with him, he even has a fanclub full of horny girls which will kill for him if they have to. Aika rejects the propose of Pepe with a little help of her best friend Ritsu (who at this point was like her bodyguard) but they end up in good terms, no hard feelings, being friends and whatnot. After that day Aika starts to get bullied on school, photos of her peeing in the bathroom or changing her clothes in the P.E class starts to appear in the school and classroom, later the same thing starts to happen to Ritsu. A few days later Aika and Ritsu starts to investigate who is doing this and why... although the answer is more than obvious at this point... even if the novel tries to hide it, yes, yes Aika rejecting Pepe had nothing to do with it, in fact they "ended up as friends and in good terms" so he can't be the bad guy!!! After a few detective moves...and some random things going on, Aika goes to some weird place behind an alley to meet Pepe, she gets kidnapped and almost raped but she escapes by the skin of a frog, then she tells everything to Ritsu and her great idea is to go and confront him on that back alley too.... needless to say that Ritsu gets kidnapped by this Pepe dude, who is a rapist and his whole music band is the same, they rape their fans too but with their consent...(?) ( だめpepe-kun だめよ! ) Now we jump to Yomi again, at this point she is not being raped only by her father but by her father's co-workers too she is like a sex slave at this point, also she finds out that her mother hates her and doesn't care if they are raping her or not. This is when the story gets a bit interesting and not just a rape fest (at least for a few minutes), she finds on the internet a site where you can make a wish, so she wishes what any teenage girl would want... eternal love from Pepe...(to kill his parents) and her wish is granted. She transforms into a monster and kills both of them, now you would think that this scene is awesome but nope, everything happens in 2 seconds... the sweet sweet revenge last nothing... also little did she know that after having her wish granted she would have to start working for the person who granted her wish in the first place.... at this point knowing that she wont be able to see her friend anymore (Kanon) she send her a text message telling her everything about the raping and how shit was her life until that point. At that exact moment Kanon while she is reading the text message in the middle of the street she finds a girl named Kamiura Sayo who is the one that is granting the wishes and she tells Kanon that she can't see her best friend anymore because of this wish she made. Some crying happens and then we don't see Yomi again until the end of the novel...(depending of the ending..) Now we play as Aika again who is trying to find Ritsu that is being held captive by the bad Pepe. Aika continues her search, Pepe at some point send her a video to her phone in which they are raping Ritsu and kindly ask her to go to that place too so she goes. Now both of them are held captive and they start to rape Ristu in front of Aika... a rape later, Ritsu makes a wish just before they rape Aika and kills all the boys but because of it she needs to start working for Sayo too... so they get separated after. After that Aika meets with Kanon accidentally in the street and they begin a colorful friendship, both of them trying to find their lost friends, now we found that Aika has some kind of special power which is to sniff...by sniffing she can detect good people from bad people, that's why she instantly fell in love with Kanon which was pure an innocent. So they become sniffing detectives partners...I don't have to say this but at this point in the novel everything was just pure garbage with a lot of raping... Later on Aika and Kanon find out that one of their classmate Nishiha Kanade is giving boys a weird drug that makes them horny and then kills them. At one point both of them (Aika and Kanon) get caught by Kanae who is working for a mysterious girl who is slaving women and giving a weird drug to guys a drug that makes you dream...sorry a drug that makes them want to fuck very badly and then they die, yes the same drug that Kanae was using before. At the end we find out that this mysterious girl is named Serena and she is slaving women, she also happens to be an extraterrestrial and the only way she/he/it can procreate is to have a girl making a contract with her but this girl must accept that contract by her own volition or it doesn't work, once that contract is made Serena can possess the girl to reproduce (?), also they are hermaphrodites, why am I talking in plural now? Because Sayo is an E.T too! Chan chan chan... she/he/it is like a brother/sister of Serena but is one of the good guys and doesn't want procreate and populate the earth with her own race of little E.Ts like Serena does, instead she wants to help girls in need like Yomi, turning them in weird monsters who cannot go back to their life after having their wish granted. (Tetsuo and Kaneda I mean Kanae and Serena ) Back to the story...Serena has a horde of horny guys that constantly rape day and night Aika making Kanon watch everything, if she wants the rape to stop she must perform a contract but they are not dumb and they wont fall under Serena's trick so both of them hold on... until Serena gets tired of waiting and kills Kanon... at that point Ritsu comes to the rescue ... wwwwwwwwaaaaaachaaaaaaaa ... she kills all the baddies. Aika wishes to revive Kanon and then she starts to work with Sayo along with Yomi (which at this point doesn't exist anymore in the plot) and Ritsu. We also found that the E.Ts are some little guys living inside the body of a human O.o If you are curious how the E.T looks: (warning is a bit shocking) Kanon goes back to her life (she is the only girl at this point who hasn't been raped) and that's it... now that's it the "good ending", the bad ending is also really bad but Kanon gets raped a lot too and Yomi appears at the end and starts crying with Kanon and more yada yada that nobody cares. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The truth is that I picked this novel because it had the same writer of Yume Miru Kusuri, a novel that I love and is very dear to me, this was nothing like that. the only redeeming point of this novel was the music, some of the tracks were really good. At first as a lover of the utsuge genre it was actually a good reading, Yomi's character was actually well written, her thoughts were realistic and I actually cared about her, it kept me wanting to read more, specially when the "wish" part came, her relationship with Kanon, not being able to tell her, acting weird around her, forcing herself to be happy just to not arouse suspicion. Even the part when Kanon read that message it was actually really sad. But the execution was terrible and everything ended so soon, the explanation as why she turned into a monster and was able to kill never came, or why did Sayo could turn the girls into monsters....everything was left unexplained. Same goes for Ritsu and Aika, both character were interesting, sometimes Ritsu acted in a very realistic way, specially with the bullying part, it was fun to read the relationship between them how silly Aika was and Ritsu's reaction, how protective was for her friend. But then you see her doing things like going alone to a back alley knowing that she is facing a bunch of rapist, not calling the cops or telling anyone, there was a very stupid explanation for this actually, Pepe told the girls that her father was a cop which by the way was a buff, so they never told anyone because of that... Finally I have to praise the novel for keeping a good pace, it never felt boring to read, I can say without a doubt that it was bad but never boring and the music was always well placed on the scenes a swell for the art-style though very lacking, very very few backgrounds, this was probably due to the many rape and sex scenes. In the end this was nothing more than a nukige with some sci-fi elements and a plot that didn't make any sense, leaving aside the sci-fi this could have been an average novel at least if not a good one but sadly it was not. 3/10

you either risk your company selling something that doesn't appeal a wide audience or you sell a crappy product that everyone will like and you have a minimum amount of sells assured. That's just business in general. Also I don't think it was cheaper to make a vn on the 90' just because of the lack of voice acting. The art style was amazing (imo even better than many vn of this days) many of them were a mix of adventure games and visual novels, also programming a vn in the past was much more difficult than it is now.
