They are writing the game's scenario right now.
>>
>>2177608
>The plot is about Ai getting jealous since Aya became a Rikka and Sayuki fangirl or something like that

I thought Nagisa was the Rikka fangirl, maybe Aya admires them because of their knight-princess relationship?
Also I think Mikajo might just focus on the New Generation branch of the series for the moment while the whole dispute over who gets the main series is being resolved
>>
>>2177615
>Mikajo might just focus on the New Generation branch of the series for the moment while the whole dispute over who gets the main series is being resolved
That would explain why they are tweeting the entire first visual novel, they just want to keep the main series "alive" somehow.

>>2177603
So how is the writing for new gen? I tried playing Sono Hana 11 (maidens of micheal) but gave up since the characters felt poorly written and not the same from their original games. Notably, Nanami basically got a whole personality change with a new childish VA and personality, changing her drastically.

Looked it up and maidens had a different writer than the original sono hanas, so that probably explains it. But new gene also has a different writer from the latter two so I was wondering if it was worth my time.
>>
>>2177628
>Nanami basically got a whole personality change with a new childish VA and personality, changing her drastically.

how so?
>>
>>2177628
Usually people like more the writing in Maidens (JUN) and the games after that than the writing in the first 10 ones (Sano). A lot of people dislike New Gene and the nurses series writer (Madoka) and wanted JUN to take over (it ended up happening btw).
In my opinion the writing in Maidens is the best and I didn't like Madoka writing that much (too much drama for SonoHana). I really liked the characters interactions in the Madoka's games though.

>>2177631
Nanami's VA got sick while recording Maidens, so they hired a new one in a hurry (she sounds like a loli), that plus the new writer made her a totally different character. I thought everyone knew this already.
>>
>>2177608
From the blog post, with some clarifications:
1. AyaAi is currently in production - story line: "Ai got jealous because Aya was mesmerized by Rikka/Sayuki. Aya tries to make it up to Ai. So Ai makes a certain request to Aya." The image >>2177608 that @fuguriya1 posted few months back will come into play in the game.
2. There are preliminary plans of adapting the original series into mobile app games like RHWM
3. the new characters >>2177609 >>2177612 are going to be used in new "cg novels" (like the ones @fuguriya1 is spamming on its Twitter feed). There are no plans yet for them to have their own games, but the author is working toward that.
>>
>>2177651
>adapting the original series into mobile app games like RHWM
What did they mean by this? A totally different game like RHWM or just the old first 10 games witouth H scenes?
>>
>>2177657
I am going to guess the first 10 games without H scenes. They are going to start with Yuuna/Nanami.
>>
>>2177645
I knew she got a new VA to replace the old one but in what way did her personality changed?
>>
>>2177651
>but the author is working toward that
So probably AiAya revolution --> Hazumana revolution --> new game featuring Noel x Kurara, right?
>>
>>2177677
That sounds logical.
>>
>>2177606
In the game, Miya teases Risa about how Risa may need to get new uniform because her breasts have grown in the past year.

Risa, your own breasts have tripled in size....

>>2177693
The sex scenes happen after Shirayuki?

>An Android version of the first visual novel was first shown on a Nicovideo live broadcast on 22 April 2016.

>It must be emphasized that these characters may not necessarily be a couple, and that they may not debut simultaneously, but rather in each of the two CG novels. The phrasing regarding the CG novels and Kurara and Noel is ambiguous, so it is also possible that they will debut in separate products altogether.

>At present, Hazuki and Manami are the only New Generation couple to not have a Revolution visual novel or drama CD to continue their story, so it is probable that Kurara and Noel will not have primary focus until afterward, similar to Maki, who debuted in Revolution!

In the originals, she was the ordinary girl who got noticed by senpai. She was somewhat level headed to counter Yuuna's eagerness. A little vn-cliche but that was her.

In maidens, she is acts more like a kid to contrast her onee-sama and emphasize that she's a first year, I guess. They turned her from a regular high schooler to a little girl basically.

I guess I like original 10 better because I played them first and that's how the characters were introduced to me so that's how their original personalities were.
>>
>>2178245
>In maidens, she is acts more like a kid to contrast her onee-sama and emphasize that she's a first year, I guess. They turned her from a regular high schooler to a little girl basically.

Really now, well I haven't played Maidens but I did play her route in Shirayuki and her old personality kinda makes a comeback, she spends most of the first half of her route trying to improve herself just like she did in the 6th game and doesn't put up with Yuuna's tricks like always, not to mention she starts getting more confidence in herself while on the other hand Yuuna is not as manipulative as she was in the previous games as she gets more sweet and clingy than she already was

I wonder how the pictures compare to upscaled CGs from Waifu2x or something, if they're not just using Waifu2x itself.

Now this is an odd feature that I've never seen before. Sounds a little silly to me.

I've seen those in some het nukige before. I never thought I'd see one in Sono H, tho...

Yeah, I've seen them before too. Confused the hell out of me the first time. I thought the game was introducing some weird gameplay mechanic at first

You could start from the first one or just go to couple specific games which go like this 1-6, 2-4, 3-5, 7-9, 8-10
>>
>>2180613
In a H-scene a little timer appears in the corner counting down to when the character(s) will climax. It's there so you can time your climax to theirs if you so desire.

I'd post an example, but the only ones I can think of are from het games.

>>2182090
I don't know of any games that force something like that
>>
>>2182134
There are quite a few het nukige that have it in the upper right hand corner where it counts down for you.

I'm just glad it's not forced upon us is all.
>>
>>2182136
I'm gonna bet that a lot of people will not even know it exists since it's turned off by default and buried in the second page of the options.

Why?

Don't you understand that purityfags can never fap to glorious yuri secks, Onee-sama?

>>
>>2182312
Playing porn games and not masturbating to them is genuinely weird and creepy.
>>
>>2182312
Honestly those kinds of people never fail to make me laugh.
>>
>>2182306
I believe it's a matter of self insert actually, something that you can't do when talking specifically about yuri.
>>
>>2182341
It's not particularly about self-inserting. If someone's masturbating to a sex scene, it's best to edge and orgasm when it's about to finish. If you're done too early, you're likely to be left not in the mood to enjoy the literal climax of the scene, but it's also a problem if the scenes finishes without you being ready to. And if there's something wrong with masturbating to yuri, the SH series shouldn't have existed to begin with.

MangaGamer has a section when making a purchase called "Campaign Code" I'm guessing that is the same as a coupon code. Anything special that would work with Kiss for the Petal purchases?

Did I make an error during install, or can you not save the game in the demo of New Generation?

>>2185546
Why would you need to save during a VN demo?
>>
>>2185549
Because I had places to go (like work), and I preferred not to leave it open on the system (which I ended up doing). I started the demo yesterday, and just finished it now. I was a little surprised by the sudden shift from playing out the story to suddenly the three pairs having sex , but I'm guessing that was done so that people playing the demo could get a little taste of everything.

Regardless I don't need to save in the demo any longer, and I'll probably buy the game in the very near future.

It's not unusual for them to have branches and/or be hours long, and even for linear, short ones it's still potentially a feature some users would find convenient to have it working so frankly it's a bad sign if a trail version doesn't.

There is a PS2 game about Strawberry Panic that let you choose genders but here's the catch if you choose female it's a visual novel/dating sim where you play as one of the girls of the show but if you choose male its the same thing but the only interaction he gets its via emails the girl you picked sents you(since she's your sister)

>Nearly 600 image files and 1,000 lines of code had to be recreated in a very limited amount of time, and I would have to do it alone. It also necessitated a second round of beta testing, which returned more fixes needed, all under severe time restrictions with no prospect of a delay. The optimization for the image data alone took over 24 consecutive hours of CPU activity. The amount of work was great enough that my performance at my day job suffered for a time. I imposed a dangerous amount of extra work upon myself due to a single tiny graphic in a visual novel released last year.

That's more likely to produce a daughter who is sleep deprived, from how loud Yuuna and Nanami can get, who will still somehow be the President of the Environmental Committee at St Micheal's, because she'll know not to fuck all over the school like every other maidens there.

Or she'll just make the entire Committee her harem.

Plus Yuuna and Nanami can't keep fucking while their daughter is still a baby, plus Nanami will have to share Yuuna's breast if Yuuna is the one to carry their daughter.

The radios are finally back, its actually happening?
>>
>>2199422

Why would someone want Maidens? (as in a publisher) I mean okay, MG translated that one all-ages spinoff from it, for whatever weird reasons. But it's definitely better to just focus on New Gen and go from there if it sells enough. That way you don't already have a backlog of a million games you probably should release. I think New Gen gets 3 small games, sequels for each couple, but they aren't even all out in Japan. (I think only one is?) So if it works out for them without Steam, then releasing those as they come seems like a good idea to me.

The original series is really kinda.. long. And I don't think you want to release the first 10 doujin games anyway, which is also awkward. I wouldn't hold my breath for Maidens. If it happens, then because not enough new games get released and yuri ends up being surprisingly popular for them even without Steam.
>>
>>2199598
Not that anon but to answer your question
>Why would someone want Maidens?
Because Maidens (and original series in general) is actually have better and comforting stories compared to New Generation.
>>
>>2199598
>Why would someone want Maidens?
Well, because when the fanbase asked for Sono Hanabira to be translated, we wanted all the games, not just some.

The reasons weren't that weird at all, last year they went strongly after Steam, which would have overridden any other considerations.


>>2199609
>>2199665
Think that is why he said "as in a publisher"

Maidens would have been preferable for us, but for MG, New Generation is probably an easier sell to an audience not familiar with the series and thus preferable to license (not to mention it may be all they could have got considering the mess on the Japanese side.)

The story goes that since St. Michaels is technically a new company, it was easier for MG to make a partnership with them as opposed to negotiating with two older companies that historically had trouble with dealing with the West (this is why images don't load in Fuguriya's site unless you're in Japan, it's geofenced after the fiasco with minori). And then there was the trouble with Yurin Yurin over rights disputes and they're not active anymore. MG is most likely just taking what they can get. Can't blame them really, they know how popular Maidens is, I specifically asked for it first when they do their license survey.

Nice

>>2199733
>>2195431
>Craig probably knows, but he will never tell us.....
I'm sure he definitely has the full story and unless he's willing to jeopardize his career he will just carry the secret forever (it's probably linked to why Fuguriya just put out a compilation of old games for the 10th anniversary instead of anything new), knowing it hurts both him and everyone else that Maidens and all of Fuguriya's games are locked up in a special kind of licensing hell. Not gonna spoil it but Maidens has the best Reo/Mai story so far..
>>
Wow, NG is so much better than 1-10. I'm not even sure I'd call it a nukige.
>>
>>2199763
Pretty much all the games after the first 10 are much better, specially Maidens and Shirayuki.
>>
>>2199779
Because they actually try with the story.
>>
>>2199737
Wait, so could the licensing stuff be the reason why Yuuna and Nanami haven't been give any new material for the 10th Anniversary?

Cause I really want new content for my favourite couple.
>>
>>2199802
No one's been given any new stuff except Risa and Miya. Not sure why they don't do Rikka and Sayuki though.
>>
>>2199594
Looks like they're taking fan mail about any topic. Let's bitch about them not letting us have Maidens, see if that changes their mind. http://mikajyo.pink/radio_reoyuri_mail.html
>>
>>2199830
Well, I'm specifically saying Nanami and Yuuna, since really a major anniversary of a series should really have something for those that started it off.

I'm not asking for much, I'll take a new light novel or drama CD, I don't need a game, just something for Yuuna and Nanami.

Reo/Mai route: After the Christmas party Reo is being more of a brat than ever and Mai has had enough. She tries to force her to make friends with the other couples but it always ends poorly. The last one they try is Shizuku and Eris, who run a club about historical Japanese toys and games. They play karuta and Eris kicks Mai's ass at it, which makes Reo so mad that she challenges Eris herself. They're both super competitive and before they know it, Reo finally has a real friend. A bunch of other fun stuff happens (like Mai rushing home with Reo to have sex with her out of jealousy one day) but it ends when Reo realizes that Eris is graduating at the end of the year and gets depressed. At one of the Best Couples meetings to discuss Shizuku and Eris leaving the school, Reo suddenly lashes out and runs off to her house. Mai follows and Reo explains that Eris is her first real friend and she looked up to her like a big sister, and she thinks Eris is taking Shizuku out of the country after they graduate. Mai and Reo agree to throw a graduation party and it's a big success, Reo and Eris have a great big hug together and everyone tears up. It's revealed afterward that Shizuku and Eris were going to college at the St. Michael's college next door, so Reo of course gets mad at Eris again and challenges her to one last karuta (they were doing FT50 and they're tied 49-49). Happy End.
>>
>>2199763
It's full of a ton of drama and had subpar art compared to earlier games in the series. The main interesting thing is that the maid got a sprite in game. She seemed cool, I hope she gets her own spinoff.

>>2199997
You don't really need one there are very few choices.

Hazuki/Manami
There's kind of something

Tell her

Kiss her lips

Give it a shot

Nagisa/Rina

Call her

Aya/Ai

I won't let her go.

Very obvious. And if you're wondering about the lack of choices, the game is only around 10-11 hours long.

Not like all the older Sono Hana games are that much better. Peko is one of those artists who seems to get worse with time I feel, rather than better. (I still can't get behind the "new" sprites.. it's like all the girls suddenly got 20 kilo heavier and more pudgy or something. Feels so weird)

That said, this does take place in middle school, so the girls being not too well.. uh.. rounded makes at least sense. The side-way sprites are still terrible though. Have seen worse though.
>>
>>2200415
I mean the art looks totally serviceable in most of th CGI and with clothes on even the sideways ones can pass but the nude ones lays it all bare as it were.

So it's a choice between the noodle girls and giant tits for everyone.

I choose the giant tits. Reo gets giant tits, Runa gets giant tits, EVERYONE GETS GIANT TITS!

>>2200443
Nah, I choose noodles.

NG has pretty good art except for that one side sprite.

Eh, I'd rather pick Tenshi no Hanabirazome and Maidens as my top 3 than tryhard NG, though NG isn't as bad as the Nurse series.

>>2200443
Miya with those disgusting baloon tits is the worst thing I've ever witnessed in this franchise, I just want to meet Peko and slap him in the face with a silicone prosthesis.

It's not really safe to assume it was Peko's decision

I have hopes that Aida might fix the sprites just like s/he did with the one for the nurses

But yeah the artist should stop making so much profile sprites, Nagisa doesn't have them and she looks great

They're a little bit annoying, but to be honest they're probably no too far off from what real teenage grills do.
>>
>>2200993
I'm up to a little after they got together or at least, after Hazuki says to Manami to give her a little bit more time to think about it.

My experience with real girls that age were that they were arrogant bitches and not at all 'airheaded' as Hazuki is. A little like Manami, but curiously enough I like her more than Hazuki (she needs a harder hit on the head than what Manami did, or a whole new personality).
>>
>>2200996
Well, true, most girls I knew at that age were very bitchy.

Although I did know one or two airheads, rare as they were.

I kinda like Hazuki just because she's cute though. And I'm a sucker for cute, as much as I don't like the woe-is-me.

All the girls at my middle school were either boring, goths, or cunts of varying degrees. Not one airhead and I wish I could have known at least one, sounds like fun.

>>2200960
Have fun with with the twins and Nagisa/Rina's routes. Felt like I was reading a soap opera.
>>
I completed New Generation earlier today. The common route mostly covers Hazuki/Manami. You're automatically locked into their route on your first playthrough. Once you complete their route you can play the other 2 routes when you choose to start a new playthrough. No need to play though the common route again, since it's exactly the same. Because of this Hazuki/Manami are obviously the main couple of this game and felt the most developed as a result, since they had the most screentime.
>>
>>2200996
Hmm, I think you're generalizing without thinking about cultures. Are you a westerner? I'm an Asian, and most girls during my middle school/high school days were very tame and friendly. There were some bitchs, sure, but they're as rare as airheads. The bitchiest girls I've personally had contact with still had enough common sense to act socially acceptable, no screaming nor catfighting, no bragging about wealth nor wearing makeup (school hierachies is based mostly on academic performance, not looks/athletic abilities, so nerds are seen as the top dogs over here).

Bullies who play pranks, humiliated, and beat up people are all males, in my personal experience. Girl "bullies" simply ignored those who they deem don't fit in their cliches.

I don't know how to describe, but the majority teenage girls here are a mix of sheltered innocence, politeness, playfulness, impatience, and unintentional thoughtlessness. Bitches like the ones depicted in Mean Girls are foreign to us.
>>
Between the art hiccups >>2200347, constant story drama, and characters being extremely unlikable at some points in the story; speading a vicious rumor about someone who rejected you, taking out your anger on the person you like and accusing them of raping you etc., this is hardly close to being my favorite SonoHana game.

It's still better than SonoHana 10 though. Nothing has ever come close to being as bad as the second Eris & Shizuku game.
>>
>Hazuki somehow manages to third wheel herself in all her fantasies
Good job, I guess.

>>2201112
>Nothing has ever come close to being as bad as the second Eris & Shizuku game.
How bad are we talking about here?
>>
which one should I play if I never played a sono hanabira game?
>>
>>2201170
You could start by either playing New Generation or play the main series in the following order:
1-6
2-4
3-5
7-9
8-10
>>
>>2201170
I personally started with Remembering how we met with Risa and Miya, but that was because I used Steam. You can just start with bottom to top, with Yuuna and Nanami on the first Sono game. Currently there are sequels with all the couple's (except with the latest couple) so I just played the first game in the couple's arc and their sequal after, but it doesn't matter if you do that or not.
>>
>>2201170
If you can read Japanese, go for Michael no Otome-tachi first.

If English only, then play New Generation first. If you like that, read SH 1 to 10 in order.
>>
>>2201108
Why would I think about cultures when I'm sharing my experiences? Obviously I would think about what MY culture does compared to another. That's why it's comparing.

I also wasn't talking about catfighting/screaming/wealth/etc. I was talking general attitude. Like, you were either worth their time or they made you an 'outcast' within the group they were. No fighting or anything, and they were acting 'nicely' when there were adults.

This is getting off-topic though.

I may have had my limit with air-headedness/delusion having girls through the anime I've watched. Cause now it irks me when they could've used the time for those delusions to flesh out something else. Yes, I know that's one of the 'quirks' of the characters, but it gets annoying after some time.
>>
>>2201112
Nurse games were way worse than 10.
>>
>>2201217
>Why would I think about cultures when I'm sharing my experiences?
Because context matters. It's similar to after hearing Asians eat with chopsticks, you commented "My experience with people in real life is that they use knife and folk." A pointless remark.

Sharing experience should have sounded like this: "I don't know about Asians, but over where I am, people eat with knife and folk." Avoid the implied generalization helps avoiding missing the point.
>>
>>2201128
>How bad are we talking about here?
The "plot" just recycles the same conflict over and over again with seemingly no character development. Shizuku gets jealous of other girls paying attention to Eris, then proceeds to act like a jerk to Eris, despite Eris just trying to be nice when dealing with people. And at the end Shizuku admits she'll keep getting jealous, so it's like she learned nothing. It felt like they even destroyed character development from their first game.

My advice to to skip the story, watch the ero scenes, then move on to Maiden's of Michael.
>>
>>2201267
I was referring to St. Michael's series, since the nurse games are technically a different series.
>>
>>2201302
And you also need to be aware that 10 was basically a story written to milk more money since the fans were asking for 'missing' Eris Shizuku route in Shirayuki. Plot didn't matter as long as they give what fans wanted at the time.
>>
>>2201304
10 came out before Maidens of Michael. I'm not talking about their island game.
>>
>>2200978
Just wait until you get to Nagisa. Even the other characters tire of her low self esteem.
>>
>>2201304
10 came out 2 years before Snow White's Knight.
>>
>>2201304
>>2201305
>>2201307
Did they really use the jealousy plot as the only plot device in 2 different Shizuku/Eris games? That's just sad. So, for plot only play their first game and Maiden's of Michael?
>>
Anyone have a first route complete save? Just wanna play the other couple at the same time. Thank you so much! :)
>>
>>2201332
It makes more sense to play Hazuki and Manami's route first. The other 2 are much shorter side routes. Plus, all the characters get introduced in the common route even though the main focus of it is on Hazuki and Manami.
>>
>>2201337
I see. Thank you so much!
Actually I'm nearly done with Hazuki and Manami's route but I feel like I don't wanna finish it yet lol. So I thought playing the other couples' route along the way might help. But still, thank you :)
>>
>>2200996
I think you're expecting too much from SonoHana.

It's just supposed to be "cute". None of the characters in this series really feel like real people.

Artist must not have gotten the memo about her being a natural brunette.

>>2201394
Probably. She looks better as a blonde though and Nagisa as a brunette.

The areolas on their naked sprites is also inconsistent. Shifts from really large to small.

i hope the next game is better on the arts.

Argh, these characters suck. People say this game is better than the original 10?
>>
>>2201459
I don't. The 10th game did suck pretty bad though. I just don't like them as much as the original couples and think the new characters are annoying jerks. It feels like the series has lost its soul.

I think the New Generation is trying to pander to fads too hard. All the soap opera drama and catty remarks the girls make makes it feel like it's trying to be some kind of different series than before.

What do people think of Hazuki's fantasy sequences?

What do people think of pic related?
>>
>>2201463
It's not that it lost its soul, it's the fact that NG wasn't written by the same guy who did Maidens of Michael, which would explain why the nurse games and NG feel like a different series and try to act like if the series was always oerdramatic
Thankfully since RinaGisa, the main series writter took over as the one who writes for all gams
>>
>>2201459
>>2201463
Some fiercely shit taste in this thread.
>>
>>2201485
Maidens of Michael is the epitome of the series. It was well written and introduced fan favorite couple Miya/Risa.
>>
>>2201490
The girls are annoying and seem like copies of previous characters. Manami is Yuuna, Nagisa thinks like Kaede etc. But they're all exaggerated to ridiculous degrees, being extremely jealous of each other all the time for no reason. It doesn't even stop by the end of the game.

And lets not forget the plot where one twin was kidnapped and raised by a stranger just to give an excuse why the twins didn't grow up together.That plot wasn't developed enough to work well.
>>
>>2201490
Have you completed New Generation?

I wouldn't say it's shit, but they really go through some interesting mental gymnastics to explain their 'problems'.

That must've been someone on MG messing with the translation, otherwise the first 3 games would've also got "rape" scenes
>>
>>2201504
IDK about that. Nagisa started lecturing Rina about consent after that scene.
>>
>>2201496
I'm about halfway done, and I like all the characters and sex scenes so far. Hazuki especially is probably my favorite MC in any sonohana I've read.
>>
>>2201506
>I'm about halfway done
Which routes have you completed?
>>
>>2201504
Both use the same word for 'rape', though in the case of the first screenshot she was enthusiastic and Hazuki wasn't saying no, whereas Nagisa throughout the sex scene was saying stop, sure as usual in hentai, but her thoughts were also in the vein of 'my body won't respond to me even if I kind of want to get away from what she's doing to me'.

tl;dr While the first is overreaction from Manami, the second one not so much.
>>
>>2201508
>the second one not so much
That point kind of loses impact when you consider that Nagisa has been venting her anger on Rina for most of the route even before this scene. She even admits she's trying to hurt her by saying mean things.
>>
>>2201484
I think the humor and zany personalities are fine- they indeed should avoid retreading the personality types from previous characters, so them being a little weird is good, but it needed to feel earned. Just dumping these sort of unlikable scatterbrained little girls onto us and expecting them to be worthy of story-focus and protagonist roles is not how they should have gone about it. I'm not far in yet though.
>>
I'm still in the main route. It's a bit irritating how they keep bringing up the "I'm a plebeian who fell in love with a rich girl" topic at every given chance. Can't these girls talk about anything else?
Also, I noticed how sometimes it makes some huge timeskips without any transition between two scenes, so you're watching them talking at school and literally the next line is them french kissing half naked on the bed.

Other than that, it was surely weird to see how even the soft spoken ojous from St. Michael could say mean things to a "commoner" girl, but I'm enjoying how NG kinda feels different from the other titles, with the couples being less lovey-dovey and the characters being generally less "nice" towards each other.
>>
>>2201516
>the couples being less lovey-dovey and the characters being generally less "nice" towards each other
I believe the word you're looking for is "edgy".
>>
>>2201516
>It's a bit irritating how they keep bringing up the "I'm a plebeian who fell in love with a rich girl" topic at every given chance.
Nanami/Yuuna Syndrome as I call it.
>>
>>2201517
No, I'm pretty sure that I wasn't looking for a buzzword that means nothing in this context to describe it.
>>
>>2201520
Let's see if you fell that way after you read the twins and Nagisa/Rina's routes. Those started getting kind of out there plot wise.
>>
>>2201495
I liked Manami at the start before she turned into Yuuna. They could've made her interesting.
>>
>>2201519
Well, I suppose it makes sense then, since they're my least favorite couple. At least I kinda like Manami, although I wish she retained her MANA personality.
>>
>>2201516
>"I'm a plebeian who fell in love with a rich girl"
That tends to happen when the setting is a private school for rich girls and the occasional middle-class girl.
>>
>>2201524
I decided I still like Manami after she literally kicks Rina's ass for being a bitch to Hazuki.
>>
man i hate tribadism, it just doesn't seem enjoyable for any party and they always pretend it does in yuri
>>
>>2201498
yes, fucking hilarious
>>
>>2201534
You're not trying hard enough
>>
>>2201531
Yes, the issue here is that it tends to happen every 5 minutes in this route, just in case the reader forgot about it.
>>
Just finished the first route. It felt really short, especially when compared to the main route of MoM. Also I was quite disappointed that we didn't get a H scene with Manami cosplaying as MANA.
Are the other routes even shorter?
>>
>>2201559
Yep.
>>
>>2201559
I'd say the other 2 routes are about 2-3 hours long each. They felt super short and somewhat rushed as a result. Have fun with soap opera storylines.
>>
>>2201531
I don't remember a single mention of this in any of the Mai/Reo games, let alone the "hammer it in in case the reader doesn't get it" with Hazuki/Manami
>>
>>2201751
It seems to me the whole theme of all 3 routes is "rich people have it hard too."
>>
>>2201760
Honestly, what did you think of the Aya's backstory? Remember to use spoiler tags.
>>
>>2201768
It would have been fine if we actually saw the stuff she talked about actually happen in flashback. But of the three routes, this one at least doesn't just skip what sound like important scenes. Too much telling, not enough CGs showing. I appreciate the staff trying different directions with Sonohana but they don't commit to them hard enough so they come off as half-baked. As long as the sex is good they can get away with that.
>>
>>2201751
Hazuki/Manami was my favorite couple this game, even though I started off annoyed with Hazuki's fantasy sequences. They have plenty of room to grow in sequels. And have a good chance at actual femdom in the series.
>>
The sound effects (laughter, cars, doors opening, etc.) are an atrocity. What the hell is going on?

>>2201776
>have a good chance at actual femdom
Runa would like a word.
>>
>>2201778
Runa is a loli and just doesn't feel as formidable as 2 people of the same age.
>>
For people who completed New Generation, is it worth its $35 price tag? People have been saying it's pretty short for a multi route SonoHana game.
>>
>>2201778
10-year-old engine. Most likely 10-year-old stock assets too.
>>
>>2201786
She's a loli domming an adult woman. She should get extra points for that.
>>
I don't understand what's going on in Hazuki's head at all, how could she forgive Manami for being so manipulative?
>>
>>2201776
>we'll never get to see Manami ordering Hazuki to crawl on all fours and the latter happily obeying

>>2201802
I agree with that anon though. For some reason having a loli domming and overpowering an older woman doesn't feel right unless it's Katja.
>>
>>2201751
Yeah, that's because Mai/Reo is the best.
>>
>>2201819
She's a plucky VN protagonist that lets nothing get her down. In another route she says "commoners are tough as weeds" so they can take it.
>>
>>2201819
I sympathize with her because I have a thing for manipulative girls IRL.
>>
>>2201993
I'm going to brush it off as Hazuki likes pain. MANA was very interesting, the story would've taken a different turn if Manami was the MC and we played as her trying to woo Hazuki and be the online friend MANA at the same time, without all the manipulative convincing that Manami's initial abusive and terrifying reveal at the confession scene was a good thing of some sort.[/spoilers]
>>
>innocuous line
>very next line is Manami jumping Hazuki's bones
This happens at least twice. What gives?

Also, will Hazuki ever turn the tides on Manami and top?
>>

>reads sonohana
>is surprised the girls fuck at the slightest provocation

>>2202149
There is often some buildup, however.

Meanwhile, Hazuki and Manami are
"How's the weather?"
>cue the fucking
>>
>>2202153
Yeah, I noticed that too, I even pointed it out in this very thread. The transition between some scenes in this game feels really weird, it's just not the H ones, though.
>>
>>2202156
At least they're much shorter than previous scenes.

>For some reason having a loli domming and overpowering an older woman doesn't feel right

Get out of my face.
>>
Other than some pacing issues and the horrible stock sounds, I really liked Hazuki/Manami's route. Hazuki was so down to earth and kind all along, which complimented Manami's slightly crazy/insecure personality really well. It probably also helped that I found her delusions to be hilarious.
Not what I was expecting based on every other post here.
>>
>>2201499
Back in the days, girls like Yuuna and Kaede used to take it like a champ and not start a 2-hour long lecture about consent and rape.
>>
>>2202277
Because yuuna is a nice girl
>>
>>2202252
The oddities are mostly in the side routes. They're not bad, but just felt really rushed on top of having some bizarre plot elements not seen in SonoHana before.
>>
Just finished first route of New gen. I'm definitely digging the Hazuki/Minami pairing, I'm honestly surprised they never did Minami's character before, but they had great chemistry. Pacing really was weird though, it went fast to the confession, then attempted to slow down (you have to earn my love), but then fast to the sex scenes again. Still better than Maidens long af common route. Their ending felt very incomplete compared to past couples though, I hope their solo game does great things for this couple.

I'm also a fan of the different character designer. The characters can look slightly inconsistent from CG to CG but with some polish, I think they will be more charming then Peko's new style. Not really a fan as the Nagisa/Rina couple but the twins route should be good.
>>
>>2202324
It's more that it seems important scenes were just missing, maybe they ran out of budget or something. I wanted to see the fight between Rina's maids and the rival school so I don't know why they would have that if they couldn't illustrate it at all.
>>
Also as far as the price goes, it's about 3-4 times as long as a regular Sonohana game so it makes sense it costs about 3 times the price as one. Also keep in mind it sells for 6800 yen (like $70) in Japan.
>>
>>2202449
>Also keep in mind it sells for 6800 yen (like $70) in Japan.
That really holds no bearing on English pricing. And 10-11 hours for a $35 vn is considered short for that price. Usually a $35 on average is at least 20-something hours.
>>
>>2202447
There was something like that in the Rina/Hazuki route. Okay, they're going to a party. This should be fun. Time skip. Party's over. Let's talk about what bad things happened at the party, but show none of it.

The other thing I was confused by was in Nagisa/Rina's route. They timed Nagisa's comment about Rina's former maid perfectly with Rina avoiding her. You of course think her comment was the reason, but nope, something that happened offscreen just coincidentally happened to make her start avoiding Nagisa at exactly the same time.
>>
>>2202447
>maybe they ran out of budget or something
Given some of the art in the game it's possible the artist just isn't skilled enough to pull off some of the scenes the story called for, so they just went back later and summarized the events instead.
>>
>>2202519
>Rina/Hazuki
Wrong ojousama but I agree on the Suou household incident not being shown is a mistake.
>>
>Nagisa: I'm a commoner girl and my girlfriend is from a rich and powerful family

I could swear I already played this route.
>>
>>2202549
Nagisa has painfully low self-esteem compared to Hazuki, so that differentiates the routes.

Honestly, I liked Nagisa in the common route and other routes, but found her pretty annoying alot of the time in her own route. Considering how the common route handled her, I thought their route conflict would've been Nagisa giving Rina too much leeway and needing to be more assertive with her.
>>
>>2200443
>everyone gets giant tits

If this were another board, I'd be saying kys, but since we're all kind onee-sama, I'll say "Please refrain from saying such things as they are an abomination and should never be tolerated... please." ^__^

Let's not forget we still have Kurara and Noel to look forward to.

His more sketchy style is super cute, and I wish he woulda gone with it instead of the overly shiny style he used in NG!
>>
>>2202932
Or something slighly less messy, like this.
>>
Why does Aya no Baka have bigger boobs than Ai?
>>
>>2202951
Because the artist was really good at consistency.
>>
>>2202951
>One can have more body fat than the other due to factors that aren’t purely genetic (type of diet, physical activity level, etc.). Some of that extra body fat will probably be stored in the breasts, making them larger.

So yeah. Either this or it's just the artist being inconsistent.

Weren't the twins raised separately?
>>
>>2201492
>fan favorite couple Miya/Risa.
Yeah, that is just, like, your opinion onee-san.
>>
>>2202958
>Weren't the twins raised separately?
That's the entire point of their route. Aya was kidnapped as a baby and raised by a woman who lost her own baby girl and used Aya as a replacement.

>>2202964
>Yeah, that is just, like, your opinion onee-san.
They're extremely popular in the fandom even if you don't like them personality. Maidens of Michael is also largely considered the best game in the entire series.
>>
>>2202973
That's actually hilarious. God bless whoever wrote this.

So what happened to the woman? Is she in jail, or does Aya still keep in touch with her?
>>
>>2202981
The woman died of cancer when Aya was in her early teens. That's how Aya ending up back with her real family, who she didn't even know existed until then. She still loves her fake mother too, even though her family hates her fake mother. The routes tone is actually really depressing.
>>
Wasn't there a partial patch for Maidens of Michael for the common and Risa/Miya route? Anyone has it? I can't download the msd file from the yuriproject thread for some reason. At least the translation has resumed for it.
>>
>>2202973
The fandom that produces what exciting fanart and doujins? Who gives a fuck what the fanbase likes? Mai/Reo is best.
>>
>There might even be a girl with a big chest who doesn't have a split personality who comes after Hazuki

Aya commented suicide that night by shooting her self in the the back of the head twice.
>>
>>2203449
Funny thing is that Nagisa is the one who likes big chests.
>>
The only way we can have a properly flatchested Reo is with Takanobu's art.
>>
>>2203451
Hope she never gets to meet Kaede or Takako or otherwise Rina is going to get NTRd
>>
Just finished Aya/Ai's route, I think it'd have benefited from more time before the confession, it felt rushed. The rest of it played out pretty well though.
I disagree with the "soap opera" statement some anon made, while it was definitely pretty depressing at times it also had some really uplifting and cute moments, I like this better than old SonoHana pure fluff, but I can see why some people would dislike it.
>>
Can I get some reason to continue playing this? I don't like any of the characters.
>>
>>2203574
H-scenes
>>
>>2203574
They will grow on you.
>>
>>2203554
You get those kinds of reactions when a series tries to change itself up from what people have come to expect from it.

To be fair though, things like kidnapping and a beloved parent dying of cancer sound really soap opera-ish. Or like a Lifetime Channel TV movie. Nagisa's backstory also laid on the angst really heavy early on. Her father dying in an accident after visiting her in the hospital and her saying she felt relieved it meant she didn't have to go to school just didn't sit well with me.
>>
I don't think New Generation made good use of some of the elements it introduced.
- Twins can lose impact as a fetish if they didn't grow up together.
- Having a sadistic dom character and not having any dom H scenes is just wrong.
- And why have a more complex story if they're not going to bother showing any of it on screen? Very important scenes were skipped or glossed over only to be summarized later. It just felt really lazy and made the scenes lose their impact.
>>
>>2203732
I totally agree with every point. It feels like they had some really good ideas but then they pulled back at the last second because they were either afraid of crossing the line (for the first two points) or just ran out of budget (for the third point).
>>
>>2203797
>ran out of budget (for the third point).
Their artist might not've been up to doing the more complex scenes. He already had issues with some of the sprite poses.

Yeah, I got confused there because you brought up that 'jealousy' plot. It was brought up a little in Lily Platinum (which makes my memories of it a little hazy) but in Anata ni Chikau Ai the same plot was brought up back and it was more obvious and straightforward than LP.
