^ 5/10 - Elfen Lied is good, but your avatar makes me sad That quote, however, is awesome - 9/10

^Obviously Mashiro gets 10/10

^ 8/10: seems like it's a really cool picture, but it's too small here. Would probably make a better wallpaper than an avatar

I can't believe I didn't know about this thread earlier. I played this game and I really liked it. I played Aeka's route first and I thought it was kind of extreme. Then I played the other two, and they were just "out there." All the routes were kind of unrealistic, but I enjoyed them anyway. For me, Aeka >>> Nekoko > Kirimiya.

This one has endings that kind of go in order, like you get to a point and you either branch off at one ending or you continue with the story, which has more branching off points for other endings later. Another one like that is G-Senjou no Maou, which is a great game. How many endings I get depends on the game. If I like all the girls in it, I go for all the endings. If I only like some, or just one, I only go for the ones I like. There are some games where you have to get all the endings to unlock other ends or characters. But if it's a game I like, I'll do that anyway, and if it's o

I started this one, and I liked it, but it was so long that I lost interest after like 2 or 3 endings. But I lose interest easily due to my ADD, so that probably isn't the general consensus.

This one just ended, and I enjoyed it. It started out as just another ecchi anime (except with a ghost), but then the plot got a lot more interesting. It was better than the first few episodes led me to believe it would be. The ending was super-predictable, though. Actually, you could see every plot-twist coming a mile away, but it was still interesting.

This is the first I've heard of it. It looks pretty cool, though. I might start reading the manga, since the anime doesn't come out until October. I have a lot on my manga/anime to-do list though.

oh... i always get those two mixed up. i'm already pretty bad with names, and i can't remember japanese names at all. whenever i'm watching anime and they mention someone who isn't in it a lot, i have no idea who they're talking about, and it takes me forever to learn the names of characters in shows that have a lot of them.

That was killerinsidee's nickname for her: It's a good one because she's like the female version of Oreki (the energy-saving aspect).

EBA is the female Oreki. Her name is Eba Kurako. "Why didn't she ask EBA?" is part of the title of the second novel, which the mystery movie arc is based on.

I agree with Desi's suggestions (and recommend both of them), but I haven't played the ones Ryu suggested. vndb.org is a database of visual novels/eroge that is very helpful. This link will give you a list of games with terminal illness in them. That list hides spoilers, but you should be able to easily find the option just above the list to show spoilers. It has many other themes you can look for too.

So, I watched episode 10. It was pretty much was I was expecting, having read the novel, nothing more, nothing less. And I have nothing else to say.

Period Translation is 100%, QC is 100%, Final Editing Pass is 7.03%.

Several shows were delayed that week. It's something they do to fix scheduling after some shows have ended or something like that.

there was a one week break between ep 10 and ep 11

Getting ready for Tomoyo After, are we?

Really? I liked both of them. What did you think about Edelweiss? It was made by the same people, but wasn't about music.

Oh, and about the extra scenario: It's the Mini Story Disk that came with the Fanclub edition of Period, not the Sweet Drops fandisc.

An update about the Period translation patch:

From what I understand, it will be a patch just like the regular patch. It shouldn't erase or mess up your saves or anything, except maybe if you have a save during an H-scene and you try to load it.

tl;dr - yes

I was giving QC on TLWiki, so Nekoyasha, the translator/hacker/everything else asked me to QC the final patch before he released it (which I am doing right now).

Period translation is now complete! There will be final QC and editing before the release of the complete patch.
