Yeah Way Posted September 5, 2013 Posted September 5, 2013 "Lucky Star: Ryouou Gakuen Outousai" is an ADV game wherein the player, controlling a faceless transfer student, finds himself surrounded by moe anime characters whom he can easily romance; but, whenever he is about to share his first kiss with one of them (The main cast of the manga), he finds himself back in his room on his first day of school, as if the whole thing had been a dream! Sounds to me like a dream I and any other fan of "Lucky Star" has had at some point, right? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GW-gbtxj0E It's interesting just how far under the radar this game is: even amongst hardcore LS fans, it's never become more than a curiosity; and no translation attempt has ever been made aside from a (cancelled) "Youtube" playthrough with Engrish subtitles; and I and others find this situation quite tragic. There is a "ps2", "psp" & a special "psp" version, of whose differences I'm unaware. Despite being listed on VNDB as "Short", there's a tonne of content and scenes, many of which haven't even been seen untranslated by the vast majority of Westerners. So why hasn't it gotten more attention? Even in the LS fandom, mention of this game is surprisingly rare, despite the everpresent desire to play it. What does the community here think? Is it worth our attention, or should it be allowed to be forgotten? Quote
zoom909 Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 Well, for me right now all PS2 VNs are under the radar... Without instant lookup, my reading speed would drop from "leisurely but enjoyable" to "mowing a lawn with a pair of scissors". So for the time being, I have to stick with PC VNs. Sure could use an AGTH for PS2... Quote
shcboomer Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 The biggest thing is probably the PS2 limitation I would say. Quote
Eurobeatz Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 I'm not a huge Lucky Star fan, but I would love to be able to date Kagami in a VN~ I also discovered this VN a while back, and I was really surprised that no one had translated it. Yeah Way 1 Quote
