At least you tried
Is he a leg creep in the game?

>No Prince of Stride OP for the anime airing today
I don't understand what you're trying to say.
>>127566179
they wanted a POS picture since the anime airs today.
>>127565685
He's just a serious runner who seriously gauges how good of an athlete you are by inspecting your legs with serious precision.
>>127566236
Now I get it. I thought they were talking about the PoS opening. Which is very good, by the way.
I can't help but see PoS as "piece of shit".
>>127566447
Same.
>>127565685
>Is he a leg creep in the game?
Yes. I nearly forgot how weird he is at the beginning.
I love how Takeru says protein.
>>127566447
Bit of an unfortunate abbreviation.
Zakuro is cute! Cute!
I finished Kobashi's 深愛 and 歪愛 good endings, I'll report back once I'm done with the other two. I thought they were interesting but I'm getting a little burnt out. It's so much to read. It might also be because I've been busy with other games and now that Binary Star is here it's tempting me.
Can I just say that it took me about half of the route to figure out that マリス was supposed to be malice
I'm thinking of importing my first Vita otoge soon. Any recommendations? I'm pretty abysmal at Japanese but I'm getting better. I was thinking of KLAP!! because I'm just so tempted by the gimmick. Money isn't really an issue right now since it's a treat to myself.
>>127569597
Can't really recommend something without knowing what you like.
There are tons of games on the Vita. Look through vndb and pick some that interest you.
>>127570050
Ok thanks. I just want something in a non-historical setting and with nice art. I'll go browse vndb with that in mind.
>>127570281
Just keep in mind that all d3p games on Vita are shit except the port, and that games can be shit even with amazing art, i.e. Reine des Fleurs.
>>127570510
I was so disappointed to hear that one wasn't any good.
>>127566738
Seeing her get flustered is just as satisfying as the guys. Her blush sprites kill me.
So did delicious brown meet your expectations? Since Kobashi's route has the highest plot concentration the others might be easier on you now.
Apart from Hinose's. Hinose's is confusing as fuck. Don't expect to understand everything that's going on until the end(or even after the end).
>Can I just say that it took me about half of the route to figure out that マリス was supposed to be malice
Don't worry, you're not alone. It took me until my third route because in Kuze's and Mitsuhara's it comes up a lot less. I sure felt dumb.
>>127569902
That's pretty funny.
They're similar in general.
>>127576431
>Satoi artwork
>MANYO music
So much potential wasted on mediocre writing.
>>127557342
Nothing being released is the same as nothing has been done. Honestly not surprised of the """"legal reasons"""".
>>127579404
You know they've released patches before, right?
>>127579404
Aren't they the person who translated the dot kareshi games and tokimemo gs3?
I liked those, the translation wasn't very awkward at all and I remember minimal errors.
Then again that probably means they took a lot of liberties. What's that saying again? You can either translate accurately or make it sound good, you can't do both?
>>127581593
DotKare yes, TMGS3 no.
>>127581593
A literal translation isn't necessarily something to strive for. You can try to translate something literally word for word, but you're going to end up with something that sounds unnatural, maybe even robotic, and thus most likely failing to convey the feeling of the original work. You can make a translation read well without going to the opposite extreme.
Not that I'm defending any of those particular TL projects, of course, just sayin'.
>>127570510
Not that anon, but is Reine that bad? I was thinking about getting a vita just to play it.
>>127586050
There's like 40 bad ends or something, the story is a mess and the system is infurriating. Music and art are the only redeeming points.
Not worth the money.
>>127586050
To be honest, I haven't played it that far yet.
But the main problem is the 'battle system'.
It's a rather frequent, about 10-20min lasting conversation with always the same background music. According to another anon, this lasts throughout the whole game.
Also, according to another anon, the characters become unlikable to the end because of their actions.
You could always read some reviews on Amazon if you want more impressions.
But you should get a Vita anyways, there are tons of good games on it, and the same artist is doing new art for Wand of Fortune R, which gets released on the Vita soon.
![CX8kRZ9VAAA3KeI[1].png](https://i.imgur.com/aq3BuXK.png "CX8kRZ9VAAA3KeI[1].png")
Some d3p sales going right now.
![CX_lxvYUoAAVYG-[1].png](https://i.imgur.com/8CrmvIz.png "CX_lxvYUoAAVYG-[1].png")
These fuckers don't really like to make money. They always have something going.
>>127594086
Sales always make me wanna buy shit, even though I know the games suck.
Maybe I can justify getting Vamwolf for Yoshino Hiroyuki...
>>127597429
You really shouldn't.
Doesn't this series have drama CDs? Listen to those.
>>127586317
>>127586473
Thanks, anons.
Unfortunely, there aren't many vita games I'm interested, besides some VNs that aren't priorities. Taisho x Alice it is then.
>>127597429
If you want to get a game for Yocchin, you might as well get Vitamin R instead.
>>127602698
I already own the Vitamin games.
>>127597849
But it's cheap. And playing through an awful game with /blog/ might be fun.
Up
>>127603417
If you have money to blow, then go ahead. But don't say that /blog/ didn't warn you.
>>127594304
Because of this, they're basically screwing fans that actually care about their games. Now both fans and other consumers are more likely to postpone their purchase in wait for a sale and buy it once it’s dirt cheap.
If they continue this trend of having sales every month or so, eventually more people that are not the target market will impulsively purchase their games. Although a sale will lead to a wider audience, this may confuse the creators–if people actually like otome games at all and if they should even put the effort into localizing them when they can profit on localizing other games instead.
A sale means more money to them, sure, but constant sales creates a bad image for the company, not like it wasn't already. Well, do you guys actually care about Amnesia anyway?
>>127594086
D3P obviously needs the sale though.
How's Shinobi, Koi Utsutsu?
Well fuck ;_;
>>127610350
Forgot to spoiler, damn.
>>127613070
It could be worse. He could play assfaggots.
Whats /blog/'s favorite route/character in an otome/BL ever and why is it your favorite?
>>127537543
What are the other two CDs? I know a few with children planning, but actually having little brats?
>>127579404
Isn't it a well known fact that honeybee's pretty strict with fan patches? I think that's also the reason why the group which translated In Spring stayed anonymous.
For better or worse, they'll probably still end up releasing BWS and KgK.

Man, I wish I wasn't such an idiot at GUI design. That shit looks nice and crisp and I'd never think of anything like that in a million years.
And it's just a couple shapes with textures slapped on them.
>>127621538
You have great taste anon, these types of characters are always the best.
>>127630402
I love that we can move the phone around on that particular screen and see past the character. What do you actually call that level of D or perspective?
>>127634673
No idea and it pisses me off because I know there's a word for it but I know if I try to google it I'll just pick the wrong words and get a bunch of wikipedia articles on camera shots.
But yeah, it is cool.
TaiAli's up at AS.
>>127634673
>>127634834
Just a wild guess but is the word you're looking for perhaps parallax?
>>127637019
maybe? I usually see that more for things moving past each other at different speeds. Like a car scene or something.
>>127570510
With some anon there being so negative it's difficult to know if a game deemed as shit is really shit or if it's just flawed but still enjoyable.
For example Norn9 is said to be bad and still I really liked it even with the convoluted plot...
>>127637019
That seems to be it. Pretty neat, Anon.
I wonder if they will ever include more of that or any other kind of motion and whatnot to the rest of the game. Do you guys like the gameplay as it is now or would you want it changed?
I don't know that I would fault Yumeiro's rhythm section. Honestly, it's nice to have one more simple.
>>127619814
I ahaven't enough games to really have a meaningful opinion.
But Okita was also my favorite in Hakuouki.
I liked Hijikata the least and I never tried the demon boy because he just felt like a big douche.
>>127639549
You can always check other sites if you have contradicting opinions or confusion as to whether our opinions are informative/meaningful to you.
I trust /blog/ more than other sites that may be biased.
As for Norn9, I think the story is bad, but the actual game itself can be enjoyable on some parts. That is not enough for me to recommend the game to someone though.
>>127640195
Okita really was so great.. I also really loved how Chizuru developed in the end too, I loved their dynamic. He also had the best central enemy imo since you never really got to know about Kaoru outside of Okitas route.
I feel you, Hijikata's felt the most like a chore to get through for me, though I liked seeing his more goofy side in the fandisks, and it made me like him a lot more. Chikages route really was short,I'm also probably in the minority but I was actually hoping for him to kidnap Chizuru and force her to be his waifu. I was even expecting it while playing his route.
>>127641670That's a bit disapointing. But expected from that author who seems to be a pure vanilla fag. .
Is there games where husbandosrapeyou ?
>>127642449
Touken Ranbu thread for those that don't check the catalog.
>>127644307
Just delete and repost with proper tags
>>127642474
Yeah, Hakuoki was kinda one of my first otoge's, now that I know Otomate and Shinobu I know better.Still would have been nice for him to actually kidnap her once, maybe for a fandisk scenario and the other guys come and rescue her or something other than the whole "I used you being my waifu as an excuse to play with the Shinsengumi" thing in his route.
Oh boy,there's a ton of R18 otoges where the husbando's rape the MC. If an r18 otoge has bad ends it's pretty much guaranteed rape will be involved at some point. Some I can remember off the top of my head with rape are Under The Moon and Trick or Alice
>>127608993
Pretty good. Great music, beautiful sprites, fun mechanic with the mero mero magic, lots of amazing guys to choose from.
CGs are a bit iffy at times and the story is not worth shit. But the majority of the game focuses on the boy and not the story so it's okay.
Play it for the guys, not the story.
Bump
So I've never played Hakuoki games before and bought one in a whim yesterday bc 3ds store sales. I don't know anything about the characters and of course the first dude that really get my dokis going is Shinpachi (well Heisuke too). Then I find out you cant have him. WHY.
>>127647308

It isn't worse than superior M Setsu not getting any in Norn9.
>>127652136
Also Herlock in C:R.
don't die
>>127647308
Learn Japanese and then someday you can play his route in the remake.
Speaking of, it's kind of fucked up that Otomate didn't mention that the remake was split into parts and that they were going to release a second game after everyone played the first and realized that the routes ended in cliffhangers.

Fortunately it's implied that he will be getting a route in the upcoming fandisk.
>>127656476
Otomate was always fucked up about Hakuouki. They released merchandising with Kazuki Yone's random sketches after she left the company. They milked this cow beyond repair, released unless spin offs and now this $$$$ decision about Shinkai.

>>127662062
It looks like it's going towards Natsuhiko, Akito and Kakeru, especially Kakeru.
A shame because he's the worst of these three in my opinion.

He really is.
>>127664280
I wrote it badly, I think they're one of the best in the entire game. I just don't like Kakeru.
>>127664609
I should also try to learn how to read, for some reason I read that as
>they're the worst in the game
No problem with hating Kakeru, he's bullying best boy way too often.

>>127670842
The heroine is better than Chizuru, but story and art are worse. I have a soft spot for Aritomo from the FD, tho. So many spaghetti.
So, did anyone in here actually play the PoS game? Was it any decent? I just remember hearing about how it'd underperformed in sales.
Up
>>127664773
If you're talking about Senri bullying, it's what made me dislike him. He doesn't even lie about being actual bullying when he's talking with Masamune, and in front of Koharu he's all "I just want to help him"
He's a jerk, don't care about his daddy issues.

Picked up Amnesia on Steam for like 3$. Shit was 90% off, surprised at how low that dropped.
Anyone played/have opinions on Code:Realize? I've been debating that of late.
>>127707869
Code:Realize is one of the better translated otome games.
>>127682840
I answered already last thread, to sum it up: the matches are depicted poorly and the daily choosing of practice partner is a waste of time that makes going for each boy a drag, but while those factors bring down the game, it was still enjoyable for the cute/fun characters.
>>127707869
C:R is definitely worth picking up, especially if you're looking for a story title with a good heroine.
Is there a point in keeping multiple copies of the same SSR in Idolish7? I keep running out of space.
>>127711172
So far no. I've got a couple dupes that I use regularly because I got them early on and they're max level/stats so it'd be dumb not to use them, but beyond that dupes aren't very useful. My tactic lately has been to not redeem catalogues except for the cards I want immediately (since that inventory does not seem to be limited).
>>127711172
On the general topic of that, do any of you max level your SR (or just RR) and lower cards and then discard them for the sake of space?
>>127712323
I just feed them to my team of super Nagis. No point in using anything less than an SSR unless you're just starting and can't fill a whole team.
>>127707869
Very worth it, it's the localized otome that I enjoyed the most.
>>127714443
I hadn't even considered the fact Cardia is going to be voiced in the anime. I hope they choose well.

Plus she has black hair not pleb brown hair.

I don't like Kakeru much but the one I really don't like is Sakuya.
Ouji and osananajimmi, effeminate, and yanderish.
So many bad points added to the fact he was trying to control Mikoto.
He's not that horrible, he just plays on trope I personnally hate.
Akito and Natsuhiko are the best routes for Nanami and Mikoto (through I still think Itsuki is the best husbando of the lot), Senri's is Koharu only good route, (well if I disregard the troll route of Masa turning into an harem master , it was kinda good).

>ship redesigned to be less comfy, even got a fucking elevator instead of the stairs
The thing that pissed me off the most is how much they focused on Kakeru. You know the 'common route' scene where Kakeru, Masamune and Senri are picking peaches together on one of the higher floors and then fall down (Senri jumps down).
They took that scene, let Masamune do some work in the background and Senri stay in his room, Koharu falls down in a way that looks like it hurts, and Kakeru jumps after her and saves her.
I didn't expect anything good from the anime, but this is worse than I imagined. I don't think I'll be able to suffer through more episodes, especially with that quality everywhere.
>>127764203
Same thing happpened with me anon, what the fuck.
>>127769586
The trailers made it look like the anime would be mostly about Koharu on Kakeru's route, I'm not that surprised. It's just a bit underwhelming that they skipped some character introductions.
Akito is always kinda edgy until 3 chapters in or something.
>>127767745
The worst is that is a game CG, they just had to redraw it.
It was guaranteed to be shit anyway, considering the convoluted plot is no good for an adaptation.
I hope they'll do a better job with C:R like they did for Hakuouki. The Lupin route could make a decent anime plot line.
>>127771184
The only Hakuouki adaptations I enjoyed were the first movie and Reimeiroku. The movies had some amazing bits of animation, unexpected from DEEN.
I'm losing hope for C:R's anime, while the plot is complete, it's filled with details that you'd need to focus on the other guys instead of Lupin for a while, if you don't do that then everything will look easily handled. C:R could be decent with 24 episodes but 12 will make it horrible.
Animation is guaranteed to be below average since it's an otome and the designs are too detailed for anime.
>>127771184
>>127772571

>>127772876
No ideia, but studios with low profile are to be expected.

How's RE:VICE[D]?
>>127777269
I liked it, but I'm a bad judge of quality. Any questions you have about it?
>>127777616
How's the heroine and the dudes?
>>127777681
Heroine is really great. She's also one of the demon lords (or whatever their name is), so she doesn't know very much about the human world, which makes some really cute scenes.
The boys - as always - depend on your tastes. But tsundere (the red-hair guy) is by far the best. Kimura Ryouhei really nailed him. The rest are okay, I personally also liked the hikki. Green is a bit questionable, though I can't really talk about a lot without spoilering. Haven't played the secret route yet.
The cat is quite funny. Best mascot. The other four demon lords are good as well, especially the green haired one by Tachibana.
>>127778443
Thanks.
Otome game where you date the members of Limp Bizkit.
>>127778443
In my dateshit games (inccluding FE awakening) I noticed that green often appeals me the most while the white haired ones make me uncomfortable with their yanderish creepy way (except in the dialovers anime where White (Subaru?) was the least worst boy).
I don't have a very extensive knowledge of that sort of game though. English only reader (for the moment).
Hearing Sakurai say shit like マジ and キモイ really is the best. I apologize for doubting you anon

You should play Psychedelica, White in there is an absolute cutie.

>>127780385
I really liked awakening. Don't feel insulted. I also really liked playing matchmaker.
Only thing I didn't like about the game was Robin.
But I could ignore him/her for most of the game so it was alright.
>>127780385

If they hadn't marketed it as SMT x FE and instead done it as Persona x FE I would be less salty about the whole damn thing, though I'm still debating buying it.

I used to read her reviews when I was younger and dumber. Thinking back, she sure does have some shit taste.
>>127769586
As the newcomer to the ship, the introduction episode being from Koharu's perspective is the most fitting and natural course to take, also making the Kakeru focus pretty inevitable, too. To have attempted to introduce anything more would have been biting off more than they can chew (they'll have plenty of time to make it a jumbled mess later). I felt they actually handled the first episode quite well, which is surprising. I'm curious how they're going to manage to fit Sorata into the show now, though he was mostly irrelevant outside of epilogue anyway. However, I am disappointed about the change in ship design. I would've liked to see the design from the game brought to life, and I agree it gave a comfier impression.
Poor visuals aside, episode one was better than expected. The OP and ED songs were beautiful, waiting warmly for the full versions.

>Would you buy a BWS vita port?
If they ported the PSP game, I'd have to consider it but would be tempted.
If they ported the PC game or included both, I'd preorder the limited edition in a heartbeat.
>>127813094
Was there a difference between the port and PC version beside added scenes?
>>127816546
The PSP game isn't a port. It's the wolf side of the story, more or less. Plot is completely different.
>>127816546
There's more of Mejojo bullying Fiona in PC version.

I only want the senpais but now I have to go through the trouble of selling 7 petits, great.

I know that feel. Being a senpaifag sucks when you want to buy a nice looking merchandise but it's sold in sets. I really like some of the princes but I like the all senpais far better.

"bouc émissaire" doesn't mean Kagemusha. It means scapegoat.
They should have use "doublure" instead.
No one gives a shit but I needed to sperge about it. Sorry.

Perhaps they didn't want to anticipate stock and force sell the less popular senpais?

I could revive it by asking if Reine des Fleurs is really shitty or just enjoyable but flawed.
>>127868784
Sadly not enjoyable, but pretty sure we already talked about that this thread.
I'm slowly reading through the Hanayaka FD port. I have 3 best guys and Kisuke left from the first part. Mamoru became much better, Hiroshi got a little redeemed, Shigeru and Susumu are still shit, especially Shigeru, since Susumu hasTae and Sanji getting together, which makes his route better. I finally understood why Genichirou got all those wifes, pic related.

Are they rebooting Utapri ?
>>127871447
that's hilarious, like a baking sheet or something.
>>127871294
I've been putting off this game becuase it gives the impression that all the guys are assholes, but it has oyajis, so how assholehish are the two older guys?
>>127874905
The biggest assholes become the best boys, and the simingly nicer guys are actually shit. You should read it. The two oldest bros are the best, and the youngest one, who gives a really bad impression first, is on par with them.

Utapri Island ending its services on March 31st.
Does anyone actually still play? I quit 2 weeks in I think.
>>127881878
I've been playing every single day since the Android release, if only to hear my husbando's voice.
>didn't rip the voice clip you get on your birthday, just took a screenshot
Fuck.
They only lasted for a little over a year. Kinda sad, considering UtaPri is the biggest otome franchise right now.
>>127881878
I quit some days after their first event. It's impractical to wake up every 2 and a half hours just to use the LP or whatever it is called when leveling up doesn't increase itthis sounds like another game
>>127881878
Whoa. That's sad. I really enjoyed seeing you guys discuss that back then. Any idea what they're replacing it with?
>>127881878
Tried getting into it twice but just two minigames aren't worth it. I liked the new voice clips though.

For as short as it is, yes.
>>127890775

Just give it a go.

New Mitsurugi character song. I don't know whether I'm happy or disappointed that it's not terrible like the first one. I suppose they made it not terrible since they're selling it this time.
>>127881878
I stopped playing months ago because I accidentally deleted it without saving my code, but it was a relief. I started getting into collector mode though it was boring me more everyday.
I mostly stuck with it as long as I did for the clips and the thought that they may expand it.
>>127883132
Check with the Chinese or something for audio and video clips?
I was playing and hoping that more features and real music would be added. I always thought the mini games were the starting point and it would expand into something else, something that allowed us to have daily gameplay with the Utas.
Is it too much to want something like that for Uta, or it is better to limit them to what we have now? I think it could give players the sense of more time with their favorites in spite of VN writing.
>>127881878
I gave up almost immediately. The mini games weren't very fun. Maybe they'll relaunch after Music 3 is out.
>>127899431
Music 3 comes out in two or three weeks, Island is running until March. I doubt they'll reboot. Anyone but the die-hard fans dropped it.

Broccoli's actually making a new game with the company who runs the Love Live mobile game, so maybe it can happen: http://www.broccoli.co.jp/company/ir/pdf/pr/160108_klab.pdf

It's not Utapri though, I thought it were another batch of idols? I saw a trailer animated by Sunrise in their channel.

Would've bought the two boxes for them.

>me fourth from the right as I await non QN goods
I know the senseis are far less popular, but are they truly not worth it when Uta fans can shut down the fucking Broccoli stock? Surely there's money to be made.
Is there a recent poll for the whole cast? I'm curious what their numbers are compared to the princes and senpais.
>>127916804
I don't think I've ever seen Broccoli do an official poll but these magazine ones used to have Ai, Syo, Tokiya never leaving the top 5. Ranmaru, Camus, Ren and Masato often appeared in the top 10.
Some anons must have pictures of these popularity polls, I had two in my old HD. I don't know if they were monthly.
>>127915357
Princes are good for anime fodder since they were never screwed up, but only their first game is worth it. Senpai games made me truly love Utapri and generally I like their songs a lot more. Honestly, I think Broccoli will milk the senpais to the point of no repair soon enough too, so I'll enjoy what's good for now.
Debut is truly a bad game for both of the groups.
>>127915357
>This and the Christmas event
More backstory is always a good thing, but damn. I just want them all to be happy.
>>127783204
Having not played the game and only read the manga, I thought it wasn't too bad. (It's Kakeru route in the manga too.) I'm surprised the music was "epic" sounding, like something out of a movie.
>>127921304
It's absolutely shit.
I understand that focusing on one route is necessary, but come on, they could at least have tried to introduce all the characters.
Not to forget that the ship changes they made makes it pretty shitty. I loved the environment in the game, but in the anime everything is kinda grey, big, harder. The cute little sea next to grass now is big enough to have a bridge and boats. Why would this be necessary?
Not to forget the biggest fault, it looks like shit. Some backgrounds are nice but nice backgrounds are wasted if the character designs are butt ugly.
All video game to anime adaptations should just dick around and be goofy like the Kamigami anime.
>>127922287
I entirely agree with you. Kamigami was great, and another example I can think of was the first episode of P4 Golden where the MC was obviously on NG+. Fewer game adaptions need to stop trying to sell the entirety of the story and sell the characters and give a feel of the premise.
Speaking of Kamigami, anyone getting the second game? I kinda want the Vita version for delicious Yone art on a nice screen. But the first game was such a waste of money, I don't want to burn more just for eyecandy.
>>127925850
Only if the reviews are good.
>>127926085
>>127925850
Are they still doing a PSP edition? If so, I'll pirate that, and buy the Vita one if it's any good.
All I want is less c&p and an actual happy end for Hades.
>>127922287
Not full of gags compared to Kamigami, but isn't that what happened to Arcana Famigilia? And looked how that turn out to be.
>>127925850
I also agree that the first game was a waste of money so I'm skeptical and will wait for reviews to be out. Or I can pirate the psp version.
Did anyone who never played the game want to play it after watching the anime or do you guys feel indifferent?
>>127928881
I've heard over and over about how Hades and Loki played out, but the thought still lingers. Also, that fucking art.
I am tempted for the next one because Thor.
>>127928881
>Did anyone who never played the game want to play it after watching the anime or do you guys feel indifferent?
Sort of, but the characters I'm interested in most besides the purple Japanese god, are the two Egyptians that are apparently locked and it kind of makes me feel like its not worth it to slog through.
>>127928881
>isn't that what happened to Arcana Famigilia?
They actually REMOVED gags. Like, they would take a skit from the game but not the part that made it funny. And then they forcibly shoved Liberta and Nova in scenes where they weren't in before and made them out to be more like generic genki/stoic eternal rivals or something. That anime was a mess for a number of reasons.
>>127796824
I'll glance at her reviews and have serious misgivings about a potential purchase if she liked it. That's useful in its own way.

Any of you guys played Blood Code?
It looks pretty mediocre but I guess it's worth a mention.
>>127934496
I found the anime overall enjoyable, but that's probably because I still haven't played it and couldn't anticipate and compare the VN's story. It got me very interested in reading it when I'm a bit more comfortable with the language.
Most of the guys seem fun or interesting, especially the three bros. What's the recommended order?

Is that atelier otome game any good? Atelier always had some cuties but I'm under the impression that the otome guys aren't good like the ones from the main titles.
