  1. Yes I hope you're right about that. I was looking forward to it NOT being a short experience... Well I'm not that fast with the actual reading, although it depends on how addictive the story is. Fate/stay night went fairly quickly considering it's length since it was damn entertaining.
  2. Well, he's right I guess. It comes down to whether one loves to read or not... Not much to do about it. Atleast you have a friend like that who watches anime. That's not so bad after all. Back in my school (days) there were atleast SOME who liked anime/manga. Or atleast that made it obvious they like the stuff. Artsy people, mostly girls, who drew anime characters on breaks. None of my friends had any interest in it though, or even mentioned it at any point. It was kinda the same for me in the end. But I for one atleast appreciated anime/manga when I actually saw it back then, but I neve
  3. Wowwwwwwwwwww yes, as Star said. 19 hours? I thought it would be way longer than that with all those routes. If you truly read it through in normal fashion and it still ended up only taking 19 hours, then I'm surprised! Haha... ... ... Damnit, that's not good. Well you gave it a 8 or a 9, but length is still a factor and I thought it would be a long VN.
  4. Atleast it will be a good memory for you. Obvious, I know, but it's nice just remembering that you've experienced some art.
  5. Yea, so they are. It makes sense to have some of that on a FANdisc. Still, either way, it's boring. Wait, no, not just boring. Hmmmmm, what word to use... Sleep-inducing, perhaps.
  6. You should make a new post when finished, since it'll be easier to see then incase this thread goes to the next page before you're done. I'd love to hear about it, so. Do have fun... It's almost guaranteed to be great. *spoilery things are all in the spoilerbox* Well I'm done with the fandisc (Sharin no Kuni, Yuukyuu no Shounenshoujo) of Sharin no Kuni. I read the main VN some time ago, started the fandisc right afterwards and unfortunately, started reading some of those girl routes. They are trash. Sorry, akabeisoft, but they are. You can write some really excellent stuff, but those are
  7. A Ghost Trick wallpaper that I changed the colour on, since purple is my favourite... Oh and the logo is gone too. It's simple but sweet.
  8. Gonna be honest, comedy alone is never enough to interest me in something... well, with some exceptions here and there maybe, but in general it's not. Great storytelling, mystery, intrigue, drama (not heavy psychological drama), interesting romance and happy aftermaths - that's some of the stuff I value most. But this anime is funny, of course. Funnier than alot of other things I've seen. It's cute comedy. The characters are cute. The animation is fantastic. That said, it actually does have something more than just comedy. And it shows itself in the last part of the first episode. If you
  9. Completed translation, that's always happy news. I don't know anything about the VN myself but that's irrelevant because - FULL PATCH RELEASE!
  10. Hah, well if you put it that way it then it's probably true that it has a bad/weird ending. I haven't read it though. Was going to sooner or later, along with the other titles (Forest, Shikkoku no Sharnoth) from the same developer. The art style seems strange and different. Oh and I have NO clue whatsoever what Forest is all about.
  11. Mm, I understand. Yes it'll of course differ alot from person to person what they think of these endings. Well it's nice to see different takes on it either way. How good each ending of F/sn is seems to be extremely subjective, honestly. More than usual even. I guess that's a good thing? Oh right, I remember now. Yes I was wondering whether you had just stopped with it or not. Good anyway that you'll continue, because spoiled or not, it's still very much worth the read.
  12. Why, you thinking of reading it Gerard? x) Well you should, but you already know that. Though you've been spoiled on a few things? Well this one of those must read VNs, as said before. But it's not perfection like Muv-Luv, so... a 9 I guess? It's incredibly entertaining overall. It's #5 on VNDB right now so it's expected to be great of course.
  13. Hohoho, this is gonna hurt. I've never mentioned this before but, for me it's... Hoshizora no Memoria. That's right. DON'T KILL ME. The true route of this VN, Mystery Girl. I was looking forward to it alot, because this character seemed to be the best out of everyone. The VN as a whole was going real good, so it's not like it was a chore to get to that true route. But once I got there...
  14. Another? Has there already been one then? Not very surprising I guess. So what did you think of the endings then? I'm curious. My own thoughts on it would be a guaranteed spoiler for desi (in particular) if put outside a spoiler box, oh yes it would be.
  15. So he is. I'm sure everyone here thinks he's *good* too. I mean, there's plenty of worse protagonists out there than Shirou... Yes, that's probably worth mentioning. Anyway, hope you have fun with the VN then, should be good for you.
  16. He did good, yes. He wasn't bad, no, but could've been better. Maybe I was being abit "harsh"? It's not like he's anywhere near terrible. Either way, it's really subjective when it comes to whether a character is likable or not. Some will think he's great, some will not. For me he felt alittle bit similar to Takeru (Muv-Luv) in a way, which is good but not amazing. The akabeisoft protagonists are amazing. However... I will say this: If Kotomine was not part of this VN, then Shirou would be worse. Anyone who has read the VN would understand. Totally. Kotomine is an incredible charact
  17. Fate/stay night. It's over. Good lord... Well, I'll put spoiler worthy stuff in a box down below. That's probably for the best because spoilers, even if accidental, are the worst as anyone here would know. By the way, thank you very much for the suggestions I got in the shoutbox to try this VN. I did ask for something to read and this is what I got. Sorry in advance for the length of this text. This was an epic journey. But that's obvious right? I knew it would be take a long time to finish before starting because of VNDB. But really, it was longer than expected. It was atleast as long as
  18. You don't hear many people around here mention Gadget Trial really. It seems to be abit similar to Advance Wars on the GBA/DS, which is great because those games are amazing. So worth a try then atleast. Well, I just finished Fate/stay night completely... I'll write something about that today.
  19. Agreed on that one. #1 VN to play for gameplay, besides Sengoku Rance. It's actually really good and it's tempting to continue with it for me aswell (never finished it).
  20. Honestly, Rewrite looks like fun. The first Key VN that I wanna read based completely on my own view of it. Saw it on VNDB before, screenshots and all. The art looks really nice and it probably has good humour. And it has aliens (?) and mystery... That's sweet.
  21. Hmm... It will no doubt differ from person to person how they look at it. But here's what I think: it has the same kind of feelings as Sharin, yet it's still definately darker as desi said, overall. You remember Houzuki from Sharin? You remember what kind of aura he emanated? THAT kind of darkness is all over the place in G-senjou. Highly intelligent and enigmatic humans. Oh yes. There's more of them in G-senjou than Sharin. But does the VN contain any happiness? Yes. There's alot of despair, but "good" wins in the end. It has some innocence and humour sprinkled around here and there. It's
  22. That is true unfortunately... The battles drag on abit. But it's OK. It would be nice if it was possible to turn off the special power animations and whatnot. If desperate, one could always use Cheat Engine to speed up the game. Oh yes. I tried it with Sengoku Rance - it works well. Easy to turn on and off.
  23. Gee, that's alot of VNs you got there. Well the ones desi mentioned are probably the best choices despite partial translation... And maybe G-senjou aswell, yes, since you did read Sharin anyway. Though G-senjou isn't exactly lighthearted. ... Anyway, here's some more titles I could think of! I can't speak for how good some of them are - they're just some titles that came to mind. Koihime Musou - This could be very good for you despite the gameplay. The gameplay is basically not even worth mentioning - it's very, very easy turn-based "strategy" and that's all there is to it. There's alo
  24. Mm yes. "Horror 2.7 Mystery 2.7 Fear of Death 2.0" - that's a good sign right there. Those screenshots sure look intriguing atleast. If anyone here has played it already, or, when you have played it, tell us what you thought of it. I'm curious.
