l0li Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 We have decided to create a translation for this game, we are sure many have been waiting for it already. This will be our first project and it is a very long one (the game has about 60-70k lines) but I hope we will be able to complete it. We already have the first few hundred lines translated by Zakudono, you can download the video here. If you want to work with us on this project, please send me a PM or an email. You can also visit our website for more information: http://tl.lolis.orgTranslation team members: Translators: Zakudono, Nash Editors: Kaylersick Testers: -- Project Coordination: l0liAbout the game: Trailer/Opening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deFkUsxz8k4 Description: This is the sequel to Monobeno, with after stories for Sumi, Alice, Natsuha, and a pre-story for Hishakaku. It also rewrites parts of Sumi and Alice’s route which seem like bad ends for Natsuha, and adds a toggle for certain CGs. Upon players’ requests, the H scenes are more numerous and intense. Monobeno original Story: Sawai Tooru and his younger sister Natsuha venture back to their rural home town Monobeno – their first visit in six years. Here they reunite with their childhood friend Alice (a girl who labels herself as Tooru’s fiancee), and a Yamori Youkai in the form of a small child. After their nostalgic reunion it was not long before the town readies itself for the night of Himemiya Ryuu Shichi Seisai. During the festival, the Monobeno’s ancient, ‘Face Dance’ was being performed when Natsuha suddenly collapsed and was rushed home. The next night, Natsuha’s body turned into that of an adult’s and her lower body bled for the first time. Tooru, fearing for his imouto’s life hastened in his search of a cure… Source: 1, 2 Rin91, Fiddle, Suzu Fanatic and 12 others 15

Decay Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 I don't get it, does this contain the original game as well?
l0li Posted May 13, 2015 Author Posted May 13, 2015 I don't get it, does this contain the original game as well? I was also confused at first. But yes, it also includes parts of the original story so you don't have to play the "prequel" (it is not really one) to understand it.
GetterEmperor Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 I don't get it, does this contain the original game as well? It's more like an improved version of the game. Also good luck! I've been looking forward to someone translating this.
Flutterz Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 I was wondering when someone would pick this up, good luck! And according to VNDB comments it's basically like Little Busters EX - updated original routes + new ones. l0li 1
Helvetica Standard Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 OH MY GOD, YES! THIS HAS BEEN ON MY WISHLIST LIKE FOREVER!!! I LOVE YOU! l0li 1
Narcosis Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 More loli banging. I remember this having so much ero, my friend literally quit and didn't want to continue. Not a bad game, if you're into wincest. The whole idea seemed kind of wasted, tho; there aren't many vn's with similiar feel and such preety art. Good luck on the project, you'll propably need it
GetterEmperor Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 It has a tag of "Protagonist with sexual experience". I'm confused; I thought all male protags were virgins that knew exactly how to pleasure women? Not really into lolis, but you've sparked my interest. I like stories with mythology, so I'll be following your progress. Good luck! Quick question, though: according to VNDB, Monobeno -Happy End- has a standard version and a deluxe version. Which one will you be translating? It looks like both are the same. They probably just come with little extras.
l0li Posted May 13, 2015 Author Posted May 13, 2015 It looks like both are the same. They probably just come with little extras. ^ This. I have the deluxe edition and the only difference is that it includes soundtrack and drama-CD's. It does not really make a difference which one you have I think, I just got the first one on the site I used.
Decay Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 Well, I'm not a fan of lolis but the childhood friend character at least looks cute. So I'm looking forward to this just for that. edit: NWS as all hell: https://s.vndb.org/sf/12/79112.jpg Yeah alright, I'm game. XReaper and GetterEmperor 2
l0li Posted May 13, 2015 Author Posted May 13, 2015 There is only one true best girl ^^ [NFSW Link] http://lolis.org/src/nekonatsuha.jpg Loco15 and XReaper 2
Crayten Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 The Translation announcements keeps getting better and better these days Good luck with the Projekt really looking forward to play it. l0li 1
XReaper Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 @l0li, its too early for getting hungry, but seriously thx for the appetizer l0li 1
Soulless Watcher Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 I needed this, after some bummer finals this week. Good luck and Godspeed!
sanahtlig Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 Since Mangagamer said they wouldn't touch this game due to the extreme fetish elements, a fan translation was basically the only chance of ever seeing this in English. This is pretty much THE defining loli-ge. The EGS median is 83, putting it in kami-ge territory if this is your sort of thing. There seems to be a massive number of content patches. Are you going to translate those too?

That's kinda surprising, just going by the tags on vndb there dosn't seem to be anything THAT extreme and I'm pretty sure most of those tags appear in many other mangagamer localizations...... unless it's another case of lolicon legal troubles.

The lolicon factor in this game is extreme. One of the main heroines has the appearance of like a six year old.
Narcosis Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 Extreme fetishes? More like an ammount of lolis not a single western publisher would stand.

It was an ironic statement, considering Mangagamer is working on Euphoria at this very moment. But yes, English publishers won't touch this due to the loli factor. Even Mangagamer, which is most willing to push the boundaries with games like Koihime Musou and Imouto Paradise. It's kind of disappointing. Violent rape, mutilation, and psychological trauma is ok, but a sweet romantic drama like this isn't?

Honestly, even though I try to have an open mind about these things, I still get grossed out by the prospect of Sumi h-scenes, and to a lesser extent Natsuha. If even I react that way to Monobeno's content, MangaGamer is probably right by avoiding it. There are plenty of fish in the ocean, no reason to pick such a high-risk product.
Narcosis Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 Different culture, different customs, different tastes. The gap is simply way too big for most of us to cope with and yet, at the same time we can't even say it isn't tempting us with those lucid fantasies. Forbidden fruit always tastes the sweetest.

If even I react that way to Monobeno's content, MangaGamer is probably right by avoiding it. There are plenty of fish in the ocean, no reason to pick such a high-risk product. I'm guessing the sexual content is avoidable by not pursuing the route of the heroines in question. According to Mangagamer, the premise (onset of puberty) was the kiss of doom rather than the art. "All characters are over the age of 18" doesn't quite cut it if the theme of puberty is central to the game's plot.
