Moenovel is the EA of Eroge? Or is Circus behind them?

You make a good sarcasm point OMA, but it's not as effective as in we have to choose over the two. People could have both, you know. And that's the problem in here. This isn't Yoake or Aselia, where we get extra routes and story for all-ages. Oozora may have a minor portion of it cut out and removed without adding anything new to it. It's understandable if the localization is facing hindrance or something, but as of right now I don't see anything stopping them from releasing an adult version. That aside, even in business point of view I can't see how Oozora will attract wider audience by being all-ages.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it will sell really well. Absolutely. Heh. Why won't they learn from past mistakes...tsk tsk tsk. Sadly, I will join this category this time.

My respond to all this --------> .....

This is.. rather... erm, unexpected.

....

Because the fix works for everyone else.

As expected, your reading comprehension sucks.

Like I've said, it is a weak case. The patch itself doesn't have the original copyrighted material included in it. Hahaha, like you have the buurain to do it. lulz

You make a rather weak case because the patch doesn't contain the game itself. They aren't supposed to make any in the first place since they practically don't want gaijins to play their games and neither do they want to sell it to gaijins.

I'm pretty sure with the amount of VNs YOU have downloaded illegally, it was way beyond rude already.

They are telling you that if you want to play their eroge, you should leave your country and move to Japan. rofl

Because Japan is xenophobic.

Actually, even I was thinking of making a "specific" thread about this project too, since the post in vnts thread has been cluttered with some other mundane stuff. (read:futsuu) It was never about right or wrong. It's about direct and indirect consequences. Apparently, the dev is still quite alive. Aroduc had contacted them and their respond aren't exactly what we would call "warm". It seems like a DMCA notice isn't out of question. On an not-so-related note... Somehow I lost a bit of my interest in this project...damn him!

Be careful Ultim, that Justin is an ex-convict. He might make another death threat in EG if you angered him.

Nice.

Loppez...another epic fail. This time, in reading comprehension.

@jenovalive If you don't mind me asking, how good is your Japanese language?

Because the one who asked the question has already made a decision.

If any of you guys actually care about staying on topic, then you should have known that the "Quick question" has already been resolved in the first page of the topic. -.- There's no actual reason to answer it anymore. So yea, this thread can actually be locked already.

Are you talking about Kara no Kyoukai the movie version OR the novel? Pretentious is when you're trying to sound smarter than you actually are. That is my take on it. Another way is when a story tries to reach something higher than its limit. It pushed the deeper and arcane subject, the subliminal meaning that not everyone can pick up on such as metaphysical or symbolical topics like "the meaning of sacrifice", "the end of life","the universe and everything" all the way up and place it on top of everything else, neglecting or completely forsaking the moral of the story and theme (e.g. the point of the story, the main message), characters and story development (e.g. the point of reference, the background, the consistency, the depth, and the logic of the characters,), spending lots of efforts trying to be "deep" rather than focusing on more concrete and grounded things most of the time. The monolog or narration needs to have context, and a point to begin with, and the characters who do this need to have a backstory that lead up to that point. If these don't exists, then chances are it is just there to sound intelligent. Though there're plenty of cases of people who condemn things to be pretentious because they couldn't understand the story. "I can't comprehend this, so [insert title] sucks!" Which is obviously wrong. It's not very nice to say all these when you're the one who wants to "hear" Butler's idea in the first place. And how do you know that Nasu doesn't have or have something? You use your guts and hunch? Heh? lol You should judge Nasu based upon his works, yet I don't see you provide anything related to his works that can back your claim/opinion/whatever on him. You're the one who started it, and so I will leave it to you if you want to withdraw from the argument.

Vote for Grisaia, vote for Le Cherry and Le Grape!

KnS is way behind F/SN

Yume Miru Kusuri. Go.

*Look at G-Senjou disjointed/spin-off side routes and its plot holes* Certainly not the best way for storytelling, I think. F/SN won against G-Sen Epilogue + Kara in my point of view, albeit with a small margin.
