O. Van Bruce Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Also just got to the first h-scene. Yep, definitely not my thing, but thanks to the so far good plot, it's still way more tolerable than Aoi's route. A pity then... just continue until the end but there are few more things that happen after this, besides the second H scene. PD: Makina: "Limp bread is for grannies with rotten teeth. Bread's gotta be bulky and crunchy when you bite or it's no good at all" I can only clap at such wisdom. Quote
Arturia Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Well having played the previous 2 Sona Hana series, i am glad you get too see the characters from the previous series, the characters itself seem alot better(in my opinion xD).. and i dont know why but Mai seems to have caught my attention from the start..Guess im a sucker for the short hairs :\... anyway, Struggling what to read apart from a Nukige :\...

Tom Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 sonohana, mmmhmm, nice combination of romane and nukige. what u call that? sweet nukige havnt seen all them chapters, will surely do, but im looking for somethng else now so i was searching for drunk/drinking heroines, but there is no tag like that on VNDB, anyone knows a VN with drinking heroines? Quote
Zhiroo Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 After a couple of months of not reading any VN I started back again. Finished Majikoi (only what's translated so far but I got Momoyo and Wanko so I don't really care about what's left), finished Nayukis route in Kanon and currently going through Utawarerumono and Eien no Aselia. I usually stick to one VN at a time but dunno while I did this this time. Quote

Well there's always http://vndb.org/v4594 and http://vndb.org/v11038. By the way I call dibs on Mian's route if there is ever a TLWiki or Fuwanovel project for this. Quote

Tom Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 preferably english, jap can also work though, can always put it in my jap-VNs-to-do list since im going to resume my japanese studies at some point this year Quote
Slowpoke Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I really don't know what to play. .-. Quote
Slowpoke Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Well, I'm not quite sure what types of VNs you like, but both Fate/stay night and Hoshizora no Memoria are both good. F/sn is more fantasy-related, while HoshiMemo is in a school setting with fantasy elements. If you want some more suggestions, I'd recommend making a thread asking for suggestions. I've done that several times now. Alright! I shall do that then. Thanks. Quote
Famichip Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Finished all the five main heroine (Miyako, Momoyo, Yukie, Chris & Kazuko) routes in Majikoi and now currently playing the Agave/True route. Quote

Tom Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 anyone else wished for Mayaka Hisakaki route in hoshizora? Quote

Vokoca Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I really don't know what to play. .-. Seeing you liked Corpse Party and DanganRonpa, you might like Kara no Shoujo - probably the best macabre thriller VN out there, at least from the translated ones. There's nothing else quite like it - it's dark, serious, the protagonist isn't a high-schooler and it has interactive crime investigations that really require you to think; definitely don't expect anything as easy as DanganRonpa, there's no hand-leading in Kara no Shoujo at all, only punishing (and awesome) bad ends. Such wisdom! Makina is becoming my guru more and more. Makina is such a good character that I even enjoyed her h-scenes because of how hilarious they were, and I almost never enjoy h-scenes. EDIT: Since I'm back on the dorms now, I'm not really risking Chinami's route anymore, I don't want to run into any accidental h-content in the worst times. Could anyone recommend me a safer VN for the time being? Or at least something with a safe common route. Quote
FruitsPunchSamurai Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I have a feeling that she'd wind up getting drunk and taking advantage of You when he comes to help out Komomo Mayaka does love her booze. It'd be pretty awkward if that route did exist, since her daughters seem to already be semi-attracted to You. you forgot that she's already married lol. Quote
Tom Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 you forgot that she's already married lol. noone forgot that Quote
Tom Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 then guess im the only one who would like her route Quote

It can't be that difficult to read and skip the h-scenes as they come. BTW, I fully support general Spare ribs... fuck fish, BBQ is the best anyone else wished for Mayaka Hisakaki route in hoshizora? Meh, real milf route would have been Shino Kogasaka. I would have REALLY liked a route for her. Quote

It can't be that difficult to read and skip the h-scenes as they come. I might try, but it's damn nervewracking with roomies right next to you. Also, just played some of Corpse Party 2... damn it that's some messed up shit, I like it. Quote

Also, damn, it's porn, what do you have for a roommate? a monk or a grill? just say what it is and that would end there, it's not like your roommante doesn't know you like manga and anime. shino route, that be interesting too; what were THEY THINKING not including those routes Shino route would be the sweetest over the sweet route, it could even compare to Kosame's route in that sense. Also, the whole background they did for her was awesome and developed enough compared to other secondary chars like Mayaka and the teacher. Heck I'd even say she had a far better background story than Aoi. Quote
Zakamutt Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I wonder if I'm the only one who actually liked the supernatural setting/backstory elements of hoshimemo. My tolerance for this thing is pretty high, then again my favorite book genre is fantasy lol. (That said, there's one place where I /do/ think it's legitimately stupid: Kud's route in LB. Feels like lazy writer syndrome...) I personally felt a lot of empathy for Isuzu, and her dere mode was hilariously heart-melting. Plus, I found her at least somewhat funny. As for "boo hoo I have to move," remember that she had to switch both cultures and languages. If you're not particularly good at making friends, which at least seems to be her case, you might well end up like she did. Does this fully justify the storyline? ...I don't know, this is just my mental reasoning to make the story make sense...That said her route is a bit weak, so meh. Still think Yume's route is the best one in the vn. Partly because of the supernatural reveals that turn othersoff, partly because Yume is best girl. Also I totally want Mayaka, Setsuna, and You's really hot mom routes. FOR STORY PURPOSES OF COURSE. Quote
O. Van Bruce Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 There is a difference bettwen wittily and amusingly constructed fantasy and/or SciFi and just piled up theories one over the other fantasy and/or SciFi. Into the VNs field: Take Steins;Gate for example in the Sci/Fi section, even if a lot of the theories presented to explain the whole time travel stuff have loopholes and such it's constructed in such an interesting and original way that it ends being stimulating. In Saya no Uta in the fantasy field, you've got lots of unexplained stuff but they are amusing and serve a lot to build this horror and suspense atmosphere. As Stephen King said: the real horror lies into the unknown. I'm a fan of the fantasy genre myself, having read Tolkien's works completely and lots of other authors who I won't mention to make this short. Now unto Hoshizora, the VN could have really become something pleasant to read if they have stayed on the fantasy/traditional japanese mithology completely. Why? because it served a lot to the whole love and romance atmosphere the VN tries to deliver. When they started delivering such stravagant scifi theories, the whole fabric ruptured in 2 different atmospheres that were almost completely opposite (romance and scifi). It was like trying to appeal to both sides of the brain at the same time when the scenario writer clearly didn't have the skill to do it. In the end, the atmosphere was ruined and never recovered. Plus a lot of Deus Ex Machina were shoved to my face, specially in Yume's route. Now, if only both sides of the story were delivered in an interesting way that would redeem the VN a bit but, while the romantic side of the story certainly was a 8/10, the SciFi was built with so much pretentious theories and rockambolesques relations bettwen then that in the end I'd only put it a 3/10. PD: Grisaia beach scene ahoy! *drools* PPD: Damn, why they didn't put a voice to Yuuji? Grisaia would be SO MUCH BETTER with a voiced protagonist... Quote
Tom Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 the interesting ones in hoshizora no memoria for me were Kosame, Asuho and Chinami. i just skipped the other routes to see the h-scenes and know only briefly whats going on there Quote
