My favorite is Lilly, if I have not emphasized that enough. Did I spell that right? :P


That's actually somewhat offending. That doesn't sound like something that would come from a Canadian, more like an ethnocentric American.

Mine is the opposite;
Lilly, Hanako and then Rin. I really like all the characters, though. Except maybe for Misha. Shizune would be higher up if it weren't for Misha.

My point is, that I'm of early European descent. I would much rather visit England than Japan, no matter how much I enjoy the Games or Anime that comes out of there. You are from BC. I am from Ontario. We get a completely different culture range here. We get far more Europeans and East-Asians than we do West-Asians. If I lived in BC, I might have said the same thing about Europe. I was not insulting the country in any way. I'm not racist, except towards the Welsh, which is OK because most of my family on my father's side comes from Wales. I'm just as much Welsh and British as I am Canadian. Anyways, enough Grammbling! (Lol reference) It was more of a half-assed insult towards you. And believe me, you've heard worse come out of my mouth!

I have ZERO Asian blood. I am French, Norwegian, First Nations, Dutch, and Swedish. But my point is. GET THE NAMES RIGHT. This is the internet, you're dealing with people from all over the world, be they, Japanese, American, Canadian, Australian, German, British, etc. So if you're going to play a game with Japanese names or watch anime, try to get them right.

I did try and get it right... I even Googled it and it came up with the official forums with someone who had typed it that way.

Anyways, we're off topic.

And Hanako with Lilly because one girl has horrible problems with being around people because she thinks they're all thinking about how ugly she is, but can feel safe with someone who doesn't see those "ugly" (that is, highly attractive) burns.

There you go.


That's just speculation, as there are 8 pages of trying to guess what's her disability.

It wasn't. I had an argument with him at school about it. He keeps pulling the, why should I learn foreign names card and then for some reason starts listing off German, Gaelic, and Russian names. :?

And it's time to drop it. I did that because I was bored. And it's not that I shouldn't learn them, it's just that I haven't had the culture around me to do so.

And that's what I meant when I called you a noob (slight re-wording).

Back on topic. Who here plans to play with H-Scenes on?

And are you going to play it with a walkthrough or without?

Well, hopefully we get a definite answer in the full version although it does seem to fit since the group of girls are perfect foils of each other.

Probably in Shizune's route.

I'm playing with the H scenes off, and without a walkthrough the first time.

...*pushes up glasses*
I really can't say for sure, I don't care for the H to be honest but if it's not ridiculously over-done then I believe I won't mind and seeing as how the structure of the game is, that might not be a concern. And if those scenes are integral to the plot then I will be incited to play with them on. As for the walkthrough, I'll most likely play through a few times without and then resort to it, I don't use walkthroughs in games for unless I've gone through it at least once.

And if I have to discover Misha's disability in Shizune's route then that most likely will not be happening, I'm more interested in Hanako and Rin's story.
