>現在冬篇を執筆中なので
She's writing the script for Fuyu-hen. Fingers crossed.

Just completed Spring. This game is like Kara no Shoujo + Marimite + White Album 2 rolled into one. Absolutely loved it.

I was disappointed to learn that Suoh and Rikka are relegated to side characters in the next 2 volumes. Do they still play significant roles in subsequent plots?

>>2142814
Do you not love Erika, Mayuri and Yuzuriha?

>>2142820
I love the others as well, just that I have gotten especially attached to Suoh.

>>2142146
Uh, I sure hope JAST doesn't take a year to bring Summer.

6 months would be ideal; I'd throw money at them.

とんとん。
静寂に包まれた部屋にノックの音が響く。
誰だ?
私は読書していた頭をドアの方に向け首を傾げる。
ノックの音は誰がするかによって強さがある。
その強さでノックした主がなのかという判別はある程度できるのだが、今回の場合は聞き覚えがなかった。
「どうぞ」
誰なのか分からないまま、私はノックの主を部屋に通す。
扉を向こうにいた人物は。
「こんにちは、八重垣さん」
「...こりゃ珍しい来客だな」
匂坂マユリ、書痴仲間の恋人だった。
「何の用だよ、一体」
「八重垣さんの誕生日って聞いたら、プレゼントを持ってきたんだ」
そう言って匂坂は私に小袋をちらつかせてくる。
「随分と酔狂なことをしてくれるじゃねぇの。私がお前を嫌いだってこと知ってるだろうに。」
「そうなの?それはショックだなぁ」
「こいつめ・・・・」
私の攻撃的な言葉を受け流す匂坂。

そう、私はこいつのことが嫌いだ。
理由はどうあれ、こいつは恋人である白羽の前から勝手に去り、長きにわたる傷をつけた。
その様子をよく知る私は、それを許す気にはとてもじゃないがなれなかった。
「プレゼントを渡しに来たのもそうだけど、今日は八重垣さんにお礼を言いに来たんだ」
「礼?お前に感謝されるようなことをした記憶はねぇよ」
そういうこと匂坂は、私の手を握った。
女性らしい骨らかな手に触れて私はドキリとし、頬が少し熱くなるのを感じた。
「私がいない間、蘇芳のことを支えてくれてたらしいね。蘇芳から聞いたよ。八重垣さんがいなかったら、きっと私は挫折してたって。私とまた出会う事は出来なかったって。だから、ありがとう、八重垣さん」
「・・・・別にお前の為じゃない。お前がいなくなって塞ぎ込む白羽の姿が見られなかっただけだ」
「それでもだよ。本当にありがとう、八重垣さん」
そう言って匂坂は私の手を離す。
そしてそのまま後に下がり、じゃあ、とジェスチャーして部屋から出ていこうをする。
「待って」
「うん?なに?八重垣さん」
気づくと私は匂坂のことを呼び止めていた。
「もう二度と、白羽の元を黙って去るような真似をするなよ。あいつの俯く顔は、もう見たくない」
「わかった。その忠告、肝に銘じておくよ。・・・・・ふふっ」
言葉を返しながら、匂坂は突然笑った。
「何がおかしい」
「蘇芳は、いい友達を持ったなって」
「なっ!?私とあいつはそういう仲じゃ」
「じゃあね、八重垣さん」
私のは反論を最後まで聞かず、匂坂は出ていった。
「ったく」

私は軽くため息をつきながら、匂坂から貰った小袋の中身を確認する。
どうやら中身はクッキーのようだった。
小袋の中身を見ていると、急にガチャッ、とドアノブが捻られた音がした。
匂坂が戻ってきたか、と思ったが
「ただいま、えりか」
ドアが開けられた先にいたのはアミティエだった。
「お前だったか・・・・おかえり」
「誰だと思ったのよ?あら?その小袋、誰か来てたの?」
千鳥は私が持っている小袋を見てそう聞く。
「ああ。シドニー・ポワチエが来てたってとこだな」
「?」
何ことだかわからない、という千鳥の視線を余所に、私は匂坂が持ってきたクッキーを口に運ぶ。
「・・・・美味しいじゃねぇの」
私はそんな感想を呟くのだった。

A fanfic? Summary, plox?

Can someone summarize me about the rapunzel story telling in natsu hen and why is Erika crying as text hooker cannot grab that part

>>2144542
Summer in the second year (supposedly), one day, Mayuri comes to Erika's room to give her birthday gift. Erika says she hates Mayuri because Mayuri broke Suou's heart and warns Mayuri to never abruptly disappear again since Erika can't watch Suou suffering one more time. Mayuri, in contrast, tell Erika that she's grateful for the fact that Erika'd been looking out for Suou the whole time Mayuri wasn't there. Mayuri's hand makes Erika blush. Later, when Mayuri leaves, Chidori comes back to the room and they eat the birthday cookies.

Fell pretty short compared to the dream of Mayuri fanfic.

>>2144615
Wait for me if you can until I come across that part.

>>2144615
Suoh had written the story such that the witch ends up worried about she had done, feeling guilty to have taken Rapunzel. When the prince comes, Rapunzel won't leave with him without the witch. Having heard that, the witch chooses to feign anger to chase Rapunzel away with the prince. But Rapunzel and the prince eventually come back, along with her parents, to ask the witch to live together with them, telling her they forgive her and consider her family.

Erika cries because she's has immersed herself in the emotions of Rapunzel and realizes that Suoh has written her idealized version of the story, with Rapunzel being Suoh, and the prince and witch representing Rikka and Mayuri.

>Did you get it backwards?
No. I'm pretty sure it's the witch that represents Mayuri. It's about her isolating herself to leave the other two together, thinking that's best for Rapunzel, but Rapunzel wants to have her back in life.

>>2144676
Much appreciated, love the relationship between Erika and Suoh.

Watch Utena, it's basically the same thing, with the witch being Anthy and the prince being Akio
At least that's how I saw that, when reading through Natsu.

>>2144689
He's just the 3rd character in the triangle. Suoh's version of the story is more about the witch.

Help! Dose anyone know how to fix this? Looks like a font issue.

>>2144804
Didn't people say this happened to the pirated version of the game?

>>2144827
Well it seems it can happen to the Steam version also.

>>2144853
It should be a missing font, but the font should have come with the game. There is a comment in the previous thread saying to run (the path to you SteamLibrary)\SteamApps\common\Flowers -Le volume sur printemps-\script\setup.exe

>>2144879
Yes, I did that several times. No change.

>>2144880
I don't think I can help you with that, you can try contacting Steam support through the support link in your library, but I'm not sure how helpful that would be.

>冬がホラーにならぬよう気を付けて執筆します!

https://yuki.la/u/1743147

Are there other archives that I need to be aware of? (Already read the two last ones.)

Why did Suou say Nerine was Mayuri?

>>2146190
Because all the main love interests in each game were Mayuri. Nerine and Chidori are Mayuri in disguise. After getting in touch with her sexuality Mayuri went wild and decided to play the field with different best girls at her school before settling down with Suou.

>>2146283
>Mayuri went wild and decided to play the field with different best girls
What do you mean by this? Hasn't Suou been her first and only the whole time?

>>2146474
he's joking, duh

>>2146474
>>2146476
No, Mayuri is a shapeshifter - one of the seven mysteries of the school. Suou's purity was not enough for her, so she became Chidori in the second game, and Nerine in the third. I also feel like she may have took on Katabami's form sometime in the past, which explains why Dahlia has some sort of favoritism reserved for Mayuri and wishes to keep her hidden, as seen in the second game in the hookman case.

>Still no info on the second game.

>>2142146
I just started playing this and got to the first reasoning where I found myself lost.
Seriously, the first question was the only thing reasonable but the rest got my head spinning

How was Suou's name hidden in Gospel of Judas?
How was the name Erika connected to Wuthering Heights?

This was probably discussed already but I am too lazy to check the archive.

>>2148595
It makes more sense in Japanese, but it's not that hard to figure out on your own given the few possible options. If you want the right choices there is a guide on Steam with all the routes.

>>2148600
I already did. It just did not make any sense...plot-wise, at least.
I did not expect it to be just some Japanese wordplay. I was expecting some sinister clues hidden within the walls as it was VN made by horror mystery makers.

But oh well

>>2148602
From the script writer herself:
>シナリオがどう訳されているのか愉しみです。
Basically she wonders how the visual novel(s) was/will be translated.>Japanese wordplay and various other subtleties.

By the way, Ete translation inevitably will be a failure regarding to the untranslatableness of Japanese masculine/feminine speech. So be prepared for that as well.

>>2148677
I remember that one having a bunch of awful puns too. Fun stuff.

>>2148595
The name Suoh is written literally as Sappanwood/Judas tree in Japanese version, so that's likely pretty easy for Japanese players. Once you figure out either Rikka or Mayuri name, it becomes obvious.

Erika was a bit of a stretch, because the other 3 names were associated with the book titles. But Erika name was associated with the main character instead. Though, in English version, there is only one name out of 4 that could be a JP name.

>>2148677
>inevitably will be a failure regarding to the untranslatableness of Japanese masculine/feminine speech
It won't be the same, but any competent translator will still be able to convey, for example, Erika practicing 女言葉.

Just realize Suou has the habit of saying 「私なんて」

>>2149226
It's like trying to explain to a kissless virgin how earth-shatteringly mind-blowing an orgasm is.

>>2149265
I'm not sure that's a very good simile, given that most kissless virgins are avid masturbators.

>>2149400

>>2149433
She's the only girl that makes Suoh happy, and I want Suoh to be happy.

>>2142853
Where did you find that fanfiction?

I've only played Printemps so far but anyone else felt the writing and characters were kind of bland? Or maybe they just don't do it for me. Everything else was so gorgeous. I felt it got dull halfway through. How are the second and third game in comparison?

Also what the fuck was Rikka's problem. Coming from an abusive household herself she could empathize with Suoh's own experiences, no?

>>2149797
For me, I thought it was a fairly realistic portrayal of 14 to ~18 year old girls in a formal setting. The characters do not have exaggerated traits like most do in other anime, manga, VNs and so on.

Suou is incredibly humble, sheltered and at first, antisocial and riddled with anxiety. Her growth in the story is the main focus of the game, and I think it was portrayed rather beautifully. Parallel to a tree, like her name suggests, she is tall and grows rather quickly and she is well on her way to becoming an independent and refined young lady.

Rikka is outwardly dependable, motherly and responsible. However, she is also very quick to act on her feelings, which is what makes me think she is still a bit immature. She desires acceptance, but is unable to give any out. Perhaps she has a thing for power given her class rep status, her motherly aura, the tea parties she hosts, the no-give-all-take when it comes to acceptance, and the fact that all of the choices leading to Rikka's route do not allow Suou to become a stronger and braver version of herself.

I have never read the book that is supposed to be related to her name, but Rikka's family situation may or may not allude to the book's title. Who knows?

Finally, Mayuri is the headstrong, thoughtful, hardworking, independent and albeit a bit rough, the most ideal girl in the class. However, in the end, she is just a normal girl. She gets jealous easily, she is lustful like other girls her age and her feelings confuse her or often get the better of her, despite her knowing better. At first, I thought Mayuri was a bit bland, but I came to realize that as the game progressed to the true end, we would see more of her. The reason for this is all because of Suou's pursuit for Mayuri. As Suou made more progress in her route, she would spend more time with Mayuri and learn more about her.

I wonder if/how her name is related to Mary Magdalene though.

>>2149797
There are certain parts like the welcome ceremony or the school tour, which I found incredibly boring, as I don't care about ballet, utensils or tea leaves.

Characters I do like. The weakest ones were the twins, but even they go through some significant character development. That said, my favorite light novels are Maria sama ga Miteru, where no one has special powers or excessively weird traits.

Spring, unfortunately for being the first game, has to spend a good amount of time to lay out the settings and introduce most characters. The studio also improved upon the feedback they received, so the second and third game have quite a leg up on Spring.

>>2149797
As for Rikka, as I recalled from what she described, she was always being overshadowed by her brother, and not much more info than that. I didn't get the impression of her household being particularly abusive to her though?

The way I see it, Rikka liked Suoh for being beautiful, smart, kind, good at the piano, etc. In comparison, Mayuri started to warm up to Suoh when she found out that Suoh has some wound/weakness.

Of course, I believe Rikka has also learned to like Suoh for who she is. But at that particular moment, Mayuri was the one who understood and accepted Suoh.

Help a sister out. I just bought the game and started it and I've been paired up with Rikka even though I wanted Mayuri! What's going on? Did I choose wrong or is Rikka's route obligatory as a first or something?

>>2149909
Suoh explains how the book titles are supposed to be related to the character names at the tea party. Do the explanations not make sense in the translation?

>>2149965
You haven't been paired with Rikka, just keep playing. You can't even get Rikka's ending the first time through.

>>2149965
Keep going, sister. You are not doing anything wrong.

>>2149968
>>2149976
Oh, thank god. Mayuri here I come

>>2149967
Not that anon. I thought it was pretty clear in English version. Suoh said along the line that Lily is the symbol of Virgin Mary. She also did comment that strictly speaking, Virgin Mary and Mary Magdalene are two different people.

>>2149982
May Maria-sama watch over you. And be careful of spoilers.

>>2149986
>>2149967
No, that wasn't what I was trying to refer to. The tea party only relates the book names to the character's names, but what I wanted to do was to TRY and draw a connection between the book titles and the characters themselves.

Suou's book title is The Judas Tree, and I personally believe that her growth throughout the game much like how a plant, or this case, a Judas tree grows.

Rikka's book title is Finding Your Family Crest (Kamon o Saguru wa no Design). I've never read it, so it's kind of a huge stretch, but perhaps it might be related to how Rikka tries to find her way and fit in with her family or whatever. It's late here so I'm just mostly incoherent at this point.

Finally, I have no idea how The Life of Mary Magdalene might relate to Mayuri, which is what I said before.

>>2150024
The character names have significance in flower language. I think you'd be reading too much into it to find further significance in the books.

>>2150004
What the fuck. I don't want this.

>>2150024
>Suou's book title is The Judas Tree
It was the Gospel of Judas.

The connection from Judas to her name was that the Japanese name for Judas tree is roughly "western-flower-suoh". "Suoh" itself is sappanwood, not really a particularly closely related species.

>and I personally believe that her growth throughout the game much like how a plant, or this case, a Judas tree grows.
All the characters have plant related names.

The fanfictions on pixiv are super adorable so if you can spare some time do read them.

>>2150092
>"Suoh" itself is sappanwood, not really a particularly closely related species.
Just want to explain this a bit more:

蘇芳 (suō) is the Japanese name of a tree species, Caesalpinia sappan, aka sappanwood
The color of a dye made from sappanwood is called 蘇芳色 (suōiro, 色 = color)
From that color comes the Japanese name, 花蘇芳 (hanazuō, 花 = flower), for the genus Cercis, because of the color of its flowers
Judas tree is Cercis siliquastrum and its Japanese name is 西洋花蘇芳 (seiyōhanazuō, 西洋 = western)
Although Suoh's name is 蘇芳, it's 花蘇芳 rather than 蘇芳 that's taken as symbolizing her

>>2150578
In Japanese it's kind of dodgy that Suoh basically says:
>For the flower of my name Suoh, the western species is called Judas tree.
But I suppose her name is more associated with the color and the color is more associated the flowers of that color, so it's easy to overlook that it's actually the name of a different type of tree.

The English translation makes it worse:
>As Suoh, my namesake flower is the Sappanwood, also called the Judas Tree.
There's no obvious connection in English between the two.

And yet she gets horny like a boy every time a cute girl touches her or undresses in front of her.

>>2150729
you saying that English version is different than the Japanese version like >>2150725 said?

because at age of 14 seems too young to do it

>>2150737
Horny is a bit far-fetched but still...
>>2150736
It's up to you to perceive whatever you want to, then. Suou is Suou, after all.

>>2150738
No, I didn't say they were different, but the Japanese one is vague per se.

>because at age of 14 seems too young to do it
Really?

>>2150739
>Horny is a bit far-fetched but still...
In the bathroom scene with Mayuri she spaced out thinking about wanting to ravish her right then and there.

>>2150745
It's true, but with the exception of
>And yet she gets horny like a boy every time a cute girl touches her or undresses in front of her.

>>2150740

>>2150745
>thinking about wanting to ravish her right then and there.
this is just too much you know.

>depending where you live (age of consent), because you could get arrested.
I don't think it'd matter as long as there's none of people over 18 involved with them.

Okay, maybe not every girl but she definitely did with Dahlia, the twins and Nerine in Rikka's route.

But that's exactly what she wanted to do. She even describes is as a dark feeling, or something similar like that.

There are some extra scenes with Mayuri in Rikka's route so that's definitely worth it.

Please have firm faith in Mayuri.

>>2150729
Did Suoh really really do that? I've seen the joke comic with Rikka making funny face on the bed below, so I'm not sure if Suoh did masterbate or simply think about her Mayuri.

so at the end of volume 1, is Rikka back being a good girl?

i just don't know because she is the one who reveal the public about the relationship between Souh and Mayuri.

i was kinda shocked when she did that since she said otherwise when i said to her that i was in a relationship with mayuri.

fortunately all of my classmate, friends and senpai accept it.

>>2151081
It could be said that she came back clean, at least from Suou, Erika and Yuzuriha's perspectives. That said, since we don't have any insight into what she's thinking thus it's not possible to know whether or not she's doing something guilty or harmful to Mayuri and/or Suou.

Let's not forget that the twin sisters have fooled us twice in the course of the games. Rikka is capable of this trick, too.

>>2151081
It's just my gut feelings telling me that Rikka is offputting somehow. I'm dying waiting for Fuyu-hen

>>2151081
She's not a good girl. She's the evil mastermind.

>>2151093
>She's the evil mastermind.
Logically and evidently speaking, it should be Dalia-sensei's line instead.

>>2151096
If so then Rikka's her evil sidekick or underling

>>2151099
But then it doesn't make sense why Yuzuriha decided to cover for "that person" given that Yuzuriha is not "that" close to both Dalia-sensei and Rikka

>>2151101
>Rikka daydreaming, have no basis in reality.

>>2151081
Honestly can you explain to me why you like Rikka?
I'm not saying she's utterly awful though I am definitely not fond of her. But she definitely doesn't deserve Suoh.

To me, Rikka just lost me completely when she did the blackmail routine. No matter what and how you look at it, that's just a shitty thing to do. She got off the hook so easily too and never even apologized.
Also, the way I see it, her feelings were shallow to the core. She had an ideal Suoh in mind and "loved" her for her aura of mysteriousness above anything else. And when Suoh came clean about her past, and that particular mystery was unreveled, Rikka's ideal image of Suoh shattered and immediately so did her feelings which means they were never feelings of love in the true sense of the word.
Whereas Mayuri accepted Suoh through and through, every single time, and came to love her for all that she is, in spite of any imperfections.
Another thing I've noticed is how choosing Mayuri is choosing to be a better version of yourself, the thing Suoh wanted the most. To change for the better. All the choices you make to get to Mayuri are also choices Suoh makes that help her change and gradually become the person she wants to be. Whereas when making the choices to get to Rikka, it's always choices that make Suoh stagnate and remain in the shadow of her past self.
That's one of the reasons why I love and prefer Mayuri. She brings out the best in Suoh.
Man, I hope they get their happy end after all... I want to see them happy and together so I can be at peace.

>Advocate for ErikaxSuou

A few weeks ago I decided to just go for it and try to play through the Summer volume, despite never trying to read a Japanese VN before (though I am decently learned in the language). I finally finished the prologue tonight, and I already have 380 words in the anki deck I started for it. I feel like I'm pulling out my hair when reading this but I'm loving every moment of it

>>2151160
>380 words in the anki deck
Strange. Anki and vocabulary drills and space repetition have never worked for me at all. The more I try to remember the word, the easier it becomes for me to forget that word. What I'm trying to say is the natural repetition (that's what's good about FLOWERS as there are 4 volumes in total) from the material itself is what makes learning stick.

>>2151165
Space repetition is a little strange for me, but I'm remembering around 75% of the words, and internalizing 25-50% of them. Seems to be helping out, but nothing helps as much as the context of actually reading it in the VN itself. I've been rereading sections to help cement in the words, and that's been super helpful for me.

>>2151165
I would suspect that if you're finding it hard to remember stuff in Anki (used alongside reading), then not really testing yourself just makes it easier to fool yourself about how much really sticks and allow you to excuse yourself from making the effort to use Anki.

Coming right from localized Spring, and going straight into Natsu-hen, it's natural that Suoh is still my darling girl.

I was unabashedly going kya-kya over her moments with Erika. It's no wonder that Chidori is jealous of Suoh.

Also, almost everyone says Suoh is "beautiful" in Spring, except Erika and Nerine. (Dahlia is excluded.) I don't know why I wanted to hear Erika's opinion, but I did.

So I was grinning when she did confirm that Suoh was beautiful and the people on the same level of beauty were ones such as Yatsushiro Yuzuriha and Komikado Nerine.

Oh, but I'm still for their rightful pairings all the way. And it's fucking 4:40AM because 4chan was down.

I don't remember Dalia saying she had read it. She tried to borrow the English version of Chronicles of Narnia though.

Mayuri was curious about Wuthering Heights (having spoken about it with Rikka and Suoh before) and noticed it was gone, but I'm not sure she had actually intended to read it.

Erika was the one had borrowed it.

I'm going to take that as a yes. :')

>>2156212
Haha, well, I'm only self-conscious of the girls' silhouettes there. Not sure if it looks strange or not.

Looks good, but holy shit, that price.

>>2156929
Indeed! But price aside, I'll admit I am horrendously self-conscious, so I could really do without any weird stares from other people. Given that I look like a 16 year old though, perhaps I'm just overthinking it.

That thing looks low-key. I doubt anyone will stare or realize they are cartoon lesbians.

>>2156978
Thanks. :) I thought it over a bit and just went for it.

>>2156978
Yeah, and the very few who do are most certainly into it as well, since it's a really niche title, especially in the west.
