No, in general. A-1 keeps the feeling going from the (good routes) of S, which kept the feeling of the first game. This basically means that finishing A-1 feels like going all over again the sadness of "I just finished Majikoia... sigh... *looks out the window, longingly*" iSkittlz and DarkZedge 2 Quote

Cuz right now what I'd like to do is replay Majikoi and S, but the problem is: the first one is a masterpiece, but I know I'd miss a lot all the new characters from S. And the problem with S is that half the routes are, well, not really routes, but a collection of h-scenes with a bit of plot in-between. So, I wanna play more Majikoi, but I'll get even more melancholic if I do. What to dooooooooooooo Quote

So I've been replaying S while playing other Vns I have in my backlog though right now I'm busy with Grisaia no Meikyuu. Most people bash on S too much in my opininon, while it's true that is nowhere near a masterpiece as the original Majikoi was it's still plenty good and plenty enjoyable. I myself enjoyed even the routes that didn't have much plot. Maybe I just love Majikoi too much but no regrets. Quote

I myself enjoyed even the routes that didn't have much plot. Maybe I just love Majikoi too much but no regrets. Well, yeah, it's a bit of unfair bashing. But it's just like, we all know how good S could had been. I mean, they took Majikoi and added many more characters, all of them really awesome (which is an incredible achievement, considering that the first game already had a huge cast). But instead of giving them the Majikoi treatment, they made some weird, super short routes that only focused on the H-content. S is not bad, but it has such a huge amount of wasted potential, that you can't help but feel annoyed at it. Even Koyuki's route. It was barely about her, and the ending didn't make me feel any better about how shit her life had been, because the route itself says it's all happening in an alternate universe. Meaning, there's no route in any of the Majikoi games where the main characters actually helped her, instead of letting her have a super shitty childhood. My favourite route is Monshiro's and, surprise, it's actually not about her being so adorable. It's because in her route, for the first time, Yamato actually moves forward in life. He goes to S class, he gets a super good job, and plans to get stronger to be able to defend her by himself. It was a genius idea for a route, actually having Yamato develop, instead of just being the same guy as in any other route. A cool change of pace. But they didn't even go half the way... they built the base of the idea, but stopped at him just going to S class. The rant is too strong. The more you love Majikoi, the more that love burns you Suzu Fanatic 1 Quote

The more you love Majikoi, the more that love burns you Indeed I agree that S could've even surpassed the original in quality if they had played their cards right, they definitely fucked up but I still have a lot of love for S as I do for all the Majikoi games. Since you love the Moe Mon-sama, here. She truly is adorable. Spoiler These are all fresh and just baked from the Majikoi S replay I'm doing so I've been building my Majikoi Cg collection. It's getting bigger and bigger, so beautiful Quote
DharmaFreedom Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 I actually saved Majikoi S main route for A-1 to get released. So i can get a refresher before going into A-1. Still playing S now lol. Majikoi S isn't bad at all, i went into it thinking its basically a fan-disk. It can't be compared to the first of course, but it wasn't meant 2 anyway. I as a fan was satisfied, i got 2 see the Majikoi world again, all the characters, the new routes. It was a pleasant journey down memory lane. I skipped a lot of H-scenes though (revisited them at my leisure later). Lee and Stacy routes, man playing through S now, i drool at the possibilities of their routes. Really liked the three maids. Btw, does dark Seiso appear in her route? do you get to romance her while she's in her empress mode? that'll be hot. The red eyes and glare man. That voice 2! If only there was an Ageha route 2! K before i start rambling on, I love Majikoi. Quote

We need the Ageha route, and the one about that other girl who has super bad luck. S had a secret "route" on her that just taunts about her getting an actual route later on in one of the A discs. Aaaaaaaah I want it @_@ Quote

I don't even mind if it takes a few years lol. Well once i'm done with the translated Vns [still have a lot 2 go]. i'll prob seriously start thinking of learning Japanese. Probably. 4 minutes ago, Jun Inoue said: We need the Ageha route, and the one about that other girl who has super bad luck.

You got a long wait ahead of you man. Stay strong! PS:Translators thank you very much for your hard work, no pressure if you translate the rest or not, you guys have already done so much. Much gratitude! Quote

Mon-sama is the best. But I prefer the interaction Yamato and Mon-sama has in Azumi route to the one in her route. No romance is necessary... Quote

No romance is necessary... It's because of what I said. Mon's route lays the basics for what could be a great development for Yamato, but barely touches it. Azumi's route does touch on it a bit more, Yamato being more experienced, going up the ranks, etc. Quote

If I remember correctly, they are focused on their past, rather than their future. So being in the servant army is gonna be more of a background context than anything. Quote
Hatim09 Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 * Me waking up today * Well let's get into A-1 .. oh wait i finished it yesterday..

MFrost Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 discord chat? Who's the one next to Momoyo (on the left of her) and Kuonji Shinra-sama, right above the logo? Also, I started watching "They are my Noble Master" and WOW...AGEHA! That whole family acts the same lmao. And Shinra is like Momoyo, cute-liking wise, And she LOVES PANDAS!!!, just not as super powered. I watched Tsuyokiss also, more School SoL than anything, but the characters feel a bit off from the Majikoi world, while KimiAruji fits right in...also makes me want to play the VN Quote
nazim10 Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Yeah, I'm with you on KimiAruji. Matter of fact, I want te ready every one of Minato Soft's work ^^ Quote
