It's an ancient Alicesoft based card game from the early 2000s that nobody remembers. It has some really cute artwork of almost every character you could think of. I recently found a collection of most of the art buried deep online.
>>
So all of the endings in Daibanchou besides Kunagi and Senna's happen at the same time, right? Rouga doesn't leave Japan in any of them and they mention Rouga visiting Sanae's flower shop in Sion's ending. That's pretty cool. It's weird that Rouga's jacket suddeny gets an orange stripe on it in all of the endings though.
A sequel where you get to choose at the beginning whether Rouga goes to America or Europe would be awesome.

It's weird that Toukichirou predates most of the cast of Sengoku. Was he supposed to be an apostle in KR?
>>
I wouldn't be amazed if Hornet doesn't have sex with Rance

basically if Rance considers her a 100/100 than she will be an unobtainable tragic heroine.

If he doesn't consider her a 100/100 she will be obtainable
>>
>>124049508
Who knows. Kichikuou-era JAPAN was a weird, empty place.
It's weird that Helman stayed relatively the same by IX whereas Zeth and especially JAPAN were more or less completely overhauled.
>>
>>124049709
That's assuming Rance gives her a point scale, which he's only done a handful of times.
It'd be funny if he gave her something like a 98 and deducted points for her twintails. Though I assume they're into that kind of thing in Japan.
>>
>>124049709
If Rance considers her a 100 like Lia, then he will spend all of X trying to fuck her or set up another one of his ridiculous deals
>>
>>124049508
'Toukichirou' predates the Rance series
>>
>>124049772
Neither of them really had enough going on in them in Kichikuou to sustain an entire game. Helman has Patton's revolution directly tied to it, and they just added parts of the Holy Magic Sect plotline to it in IX.

Zeth has the internal power struggle within the government already in KR, but it's pretty bare bones and doesn't really give much to work with in terms of what Rance could do in it. Adding Ice Flame gave it an easy way of bringing Rance into the politics.

JAPAN is almost tacked on in Kichikuou, though it seems like they were intending to have it be an RPG with Demon Nobunaga as the final boss for a very long time, and only changed it to an SLG when they'd already started working on Sengoku.
>>
>>124050268
He wasn't Nobunaga's pet monkey though. And considering how few other historical figures were brought in in Kichikuou it doesn't matter. They had his design and role finalized as early as Kichikuou.
>>
>>124049709
>Unobtainable tragic heroine
Highly doubt it, Look at what they did with Sheila, Magic and Kou.
>>
>>124050504
They all have individual character types they fall into though, and unobtainable tragic heroine could be the one they choose for Hornet. I'd much prefer it over her being a Keshin clone, which I'm worried will be what ends up happening.
>>
>>124050430
But he called him little monkey. Going from that to a pet isn't far-stretched
>>
>>124050683
I guess so. It's just weird that they didn't bring in Ieyasu or anything that early as well.
>>
>>124050846
Because JAPAN was an minor addon. Basically just a super Free City.
And a Demon and his daughter for the Ludo connection.

And if you're going with a Japanese leader known as a Demon well Nobunaga is the obvious choice
>>
>>124050846
They only brought in Nobunaga, his 2 most famous retainers and his niece.
No place for Ieyasu
>>
>>124050658
My fingers are crossed that they'll go the Urza route and make her sleep with Rance but stand on her own as a character. One thing I think people tend to overlook is that even in Kichikuou when she actually appears Hornet is never set up as any sort of grand prize for Rance. We'll see if that changes in X, but he already has Satella clearly set up as his Demon waifu.
>>
>>124050982
>>124051030
It's interesting that they chose to keep Nobunaga a man when so many other eroge turn him into a girl. I think reimagining him as a laidback bro who got screwed over by powers outside of his control is a way more interesting reimagining of the character.
>>
>>124051110
I can't even recall Hornet and Rance talking to each other in KR
>>
>>124051379
They briefly talk after he defeats Kayblis. He learns about he way earlier than that but he doesn't seem particularly interested in her. His goal for invading the Monster Realm is to conquer the earth, not to fuck Hornet.
>>
>>124050658
I think Silky will be the unobtainable one who will go after Kay-chan on her own instead of joining Satella and co with Rance. It'll be a reference to KR as well

To be frank, I don't think AS can pull off another Kenshin in the same series

>>124051110
> Hornet is never set up as any sort of grand prize for Rance.
True but they've gone out their way to make the Princess's one the major focus characters in the games they've first appeared in. Not to mention he didn't invade the Monster realm to grab Hornet, he did it for other reasons.


All of this is very dependent on the setup they use for X though and how they make Rance go to the Monster realm
>>
>>124051690
Except for Magic who has little to do with the overall plot of VI but nobody likes Magic so that's fine
>>
>>124051690
>To be frank, I don't think AS can pull off another Kenshin in the same series
Doesn't mean they can't try.

>All of this is very dependent on the setup they use for X though and how they make Rance go to the Monster realm
Agreed. X could be anything in all respects.
>>
>>124051846
Magic sort of gets the heroine role during the second half of the game. Urza still gets way more development, but then again Urza is one of the most well-developed characters in the series period.
I always got the feeling that Alicesoft considers Gandhi to be the true Zeth representative character, since Magic is the most secondary of all the princesses.
>>
>>124051846
Gandhi is the heroine of the second half of VI, Magic is just the proxy that Gandhi uses to fuck Rance.

>>124052074
This. Just take a look at IX ending to get an idea of who Alicesoft thinks are the representatives of Zeth and JAPAN.
>>
>>124051690
>To be frank, I don't think AS can pull off another Kenshin in the same series
Kenshin was a smash hit remember, and the character type seems popular in Japan (shit taste). Hornet also has all the hallmarks of one. She could easily end up being anything else, but the possibility is pretty real.
>>
Shizuka is actually Hornet's mother.
Rance will die before Shizuka manages to acknowledge that she loves him.
She will regret and try to go back in time to save him. But it will fail and she will go back to far.
Gi will find her and rape and impregnate her and then take the baby (Hornet).
Shizuka will be angry and hate Gi and when she gets captured and raped by Kayblis she will give birth to Maris and leave behind her malice and grudge towards Gi to her daughter.

Ithere looking up to both Hornet and Shizuka hints at this.
>>
>>124052370
Kou is the representative of JAPAN though. Kenshin is the most popular character from it but that puts her in a position like Kanami or Rick. Kenshin doesn't do anything in Sengoku's main story that any other leader doesn't do. Gandhi actually gets a large amount of plot significance (consider that he's listed as a main character in the opening instead of Magic).
>>
We're getting a Hornet/Ithere ending in X, obviously.

I wonder what the fan reaction would be. Is Hornet considered to be the 10/10 grand prize that she is in the west in Japan?
>>
>>124052370
Miracle's ending**

>>124052383
I have faith that AS won't make a move like that. Trying to replicate smash hits like that don't generally happen in the same series.

>(shit taste)
Japan has good taste when it comes to Rance, although the original archetype that Kenshin was originally based on is lackluster. Thankfully there's enough there to make it a redeemable case

>>124052576
Kou is the representative of JAPAN though.
Which is why Kenshin is on the poster for X and not Kou right? Kenshin is the poster girl for Japan

Kanami and Maria only in because they are series mains with Rizna and Daniel more important.

Plus of course Kamilla and arguably the most plot important character in Abert
>>
>>124052727
>We're getting a Hornet/Ithere ending in X, obviously.
Currently Ithere has more of a reason to end up with her than Rance, since Rance doesn't know she exists. We'll see how it pans out in X.

It'd be sad if Ithere ends up just existing to lose out to Rance and then sacrifice himself for Hornet like I'm predicting.
>>
>>124052741
>Which is why Kenshin is on the poster for X and not Kou right?
Kou's a little girl who can barely fight. Kenshin is the goddess of war and one of the most popular girls in the series, of course she'd be on it. Also, no one from Leazas or Zeth is on the poster, just Rance, main girl Sill, breakout girl Kenshin and ultra popular flavor of the day Sheila, so your argument doesn't matter.
>>
>>124052780
The characters you listed would all be spoilers if they were put on there. Including Maria and Kanami is justified because they're part of the main party. Magic wouldn't be any sort of a spoiler if she were on it, Gandhi is just more important/popular.

Nagi will die. But her soul will choose to go back in time, the time when she was happiest, and she will be at GI 1010. Shizuka who loves Nagi wants to be with her too and wants to be in a time when Nagi'd love her, but since she already loves Reset she'll go back in time before Nagi is born, and become her mother
>>
>>124053174

They have Kamilla blacked out in the opening. They were trying to keep her a secret in their own shitty way.

I love how in Evenicle they don't even both hiding the black knight's identity and only make a slight attempt to hide the white knight's identity but set Felton up as Aster's counterpart pretty much from the moment you meet Felton and Kathryn says Felton reminds her of Aster

They didn't even change the colour schemes

And on a replay It's obvious Aster isn't human

You can tell who the Black Knight is from the very first meeting due to the VA
>>
>>124053847
Is it ever hard to guess who it is in those sort of situations? Especially in anime.
I feel like the real twist is that Felton is arguably the true hero of the story, since you can guess that he's a bad guy right from his introduction.
>>
>>124054137
Yep
And if you somehow don't pick it up in Chapter 1 it's spelled out again in Chapter 2 and yet again in Chapter 3.
Felton is almost as obvious except at least they introduced a shallow red herring alternative who you already associate with the black knight
>>
>>124053847
There's a almost stupid amount of foreshadowing in Evencile
>>
>>124054353
Felton is right but he isn't the hero.
Or even heroic.

The only real twist is what QD reveals right at the end.
Oh and I guess the whole Aster's sisters are dragons and he's more than half dragon himself thing but that's a surprise but not a twist.

Actually Ophelia as the main end boss of the Hamlet chapter was sort of a surprise.


Evenicle had a pretty good story and was strong thematically but it's not a game for shocking twists. Everything is spelled out and well supported before hand.
>>
Rance 03 summary anon here. It's been nearly 7 months so I'm planning to replay Evenicle.

Do people want me to do a summary?
>>
>>124053847
Pretty much everything about Felton screams villain right from the gate. Does he look like a good guy to you?
On a side note, do we really still need to use spoilers for Evenicle? It's been out for a while now and everyone who'd be able to play it has played it. We don't even spoiler tag 03 stuff anymore.
>>
>>124054973
What is there to spoil about Rance 03?

Not only is it a remake of a game that is older than a majority of posters here but said game was release in English like 3 years ago
>>
>>124054824
I would say only if you were gonna do Evenicle Rance, since I assume a majority of English players only really care about that since they haven't no idea what's going on in the Evenicle verse.

I think people need to bare in mind that Haniho has a small, anonymous population of hardcore fans who frequently communicate with each other.

The Japanese fanbase is much bigger so less extreme and also contains less hardcore fans so again less extreme.

Okay. Technically learned all hiraganas since last week, just need to remember them all without any reference. I know that I could learn all kanas in 2 weeks with any effort and it would be quicker than this workshop I'm taking, but it's still satisfying to be able to understand some moonrunes. Of course, I've learned some basic grammar as well but I need to remember them as well.

>>
>>124100785
Stuck on "kana and some really, really basic kanji" since one and a half year ago and it'll probably stay that way because I can't keep myself motivated to learn for more than one week straight.

Nah it happens all the time.

I passed the Japanese-Language Proficiency Test a couple years ago, so I'd say I'm pretty fluent save the odd Kanji I need to double check for.
>>
Don't die
>>
>>124101951
Oh, that's pretty good.

The workshop I'm going to is just hiraganas and some basic grammar. If I take next semester workshop, it'll likely be katakanas and some more grammar. As for kanjis, it seems I,ll be on my own.
>>
>>124105432
Grammar will probably the hardest adjustment. Kanji is just vocab really, with lots more contextual memory related to symbols. Depending on your ability to remember symbols, it should come easily enough over time. There's lot of tricks too so even if you totally, TOTALLY suck you'll be okay.
>>
>>124105908
Maybe kanjis won't be that bad? It was surprisingly easy to learn hiraganas beside looking like arcane runes. It was just rote memorization. And from what others told me about kanjis, you learn basic kanjis and then the more complex kanjis usually have elements of the simpler ones to get the meaning.

The ova cuts most of the best parts out and pretty much completely shuns two of the heroines. All three of the bros also get completely rewritten and watered down. By watching the ova you'd never know that a major plotpoint in the game is Shinkai rapes Izumi.
>>
>>124107152
Kanji's difficulty gets overhyped I think, but some people do struggles with it. It's definitely best to start with basic kanji because most of them carry into the complex kanji, and furthermore have similar meanings so you have a much easier grasping that x kanji is associated with x concept

Dogs are stronger than she is.
Leila's a good girl, but she's hardly waifu material. Alicesoft almost seems to be going out of their way to make sure people don't make her their waifu these days.

She was always used goods. She fucked a bunch of guys before 03. It really cheapens her character by not having her willingly fuck Rance, actually.

Don't see any problems here.
>>
>>124114628
I'm not the one trying to say a woman is literally flawless so it explains a lot why you'd be tipping a fedora.
>>
>>124114695
I'm glad I'm not alone in thinking Minerva is one of the best girls in the series despite not wanting to fuck her. She cool, cunning and compelling and is easily one of the best villains in the series.
>>
>>124114835
Saying that a girl should save herself for the man she loves is literally fedora core. I would rather have a girl that have slept around before she met me, that way she can use the skills she's learned on me.
>>
>>124114892
Yeah, but she's still ugly as fuck.
>>
>>124115170
I'd say it's even more impressive to be able to write a compelling female character in an eroge that you don't want to fuck. It's a pretty severe handicap.

I think it's just common sense to have as little sexual partners as possible but okay, whatever you say fedoraboy. Enjoy sloppy seconds.

>>
>>124115078
>would rather have an "experienced" girl, also known as slut
Why do you want used goods, anon? sluts are bound to cheat on you. You can never trust 'em and are therefore not suitable as girlfriend material.
>>
>>124114584
The only male characters from Mamatoto who really made it in were Nanas, Stourin, Rick, Dikacis and Kakaro. Everyone else is representing a different series.
>>
>>124115710
Did Pitten really get in as a Kaeru nyo Panyon character? That's surprising.
>>
>>124115602
To be fair, Leila is not the type to cheat on the guy she loves.
I agree with you though.
>>
>>124115078
>thinking only of sex
You have no idea what being with a woman means, don't you? Or what true happiness means.
Imagine waking up next to a cute, loyal, not slutty girl on an early winter morning. She smiles at you, says good morning and asks if you want some coffee. After you drank some coffee in bed you cuddle for a while. Then she looks you deep in the eyes and says: "I love you."

Kenshin is such a girl and is therefore best.

And...?

>>124115925
Why? He's technically the main bad guy of it and it's his debut game. The only character from another series who got their own Mamatoto card was Rick since he looks way different.
>>
>>124116182
She's fantastic in IX. The game is basically the Patton faction beats the shit out of all of Stessel's guys while Minerva manipulates shit from behind the scenes to promote herself to main villain.
03 also improves her considerably from III, though her appearance is still fairly short. She comes off as her usual hypercompetent, ruthless self much better in it.

In comparison, swords are so generic that anyone can wield them and still look fairly cool.

Didn't stop Thoma from being world's strongest. And certainly didn't stop Minerva in wiping the floor with most of her enemies.
If anything, it's a handicap that makes her look better if they are shitty weapons.

It's also weird that Barbazza is considered a Daiakuji character when he debuted in Mamatoto.
>>
>>124178214
She's doormat and that personality type always wins big with Rance.
>>
>>124179752
I don't really like how many girls fall in love with Rance because he bullies them into submission. Even the ones that aren't doormats just require him to be nice to them once for them to completely fall for him. It's a little sad.
>>
>>124180053
Well he's the protagionist and it's a porn series so really it can't be helped.
>>
>>124180053
In Shizuka's case it's fairly well justified. She's seen Rance pull of countless major heroics and is responsible for saving her and her closest friends from becoming soulless husks, avenging her father, and keeping her sister alive and happy. She's bound to feel something for him after doing all of that, so acting halfway decent would be enough to win her over.
With Kanami it really does come off as Stockholm syndrome though. What do you expect? It's Kanami.
>>
>>124180462
He's saved Kanami from dying multiple times. She's also both overly romantic and pathetic enough that she'd fall for pretty much anyone who treated her like a girl.
>>
>>124180462
Pretty much everybody owes their lives improving substantially to Rance. Unlike in Kichikuou he tends to make everything better for everyone in canon.

Unless you're Bird.
>>
>>124181030
He hasn't really directly benefited Kanami at all though. All the times I can think of him saving her from getting captured only happened in the first place because Lia sent her out to help him.
>>
>>124181748
That's not Rance's fault though. It's Lia sending an incompetent ninja to missions that are way above her skills.

I think it's to justify his place among the generals more. Rick is obscenely strong and leads through example, Barres is a charismatic veteran and Ex is a tactical genius. Without the Leadership skill, Cordoba is really just a moderately strong guy.

>>124183851
I think all young men are indoctrinated into the military when they reach a certain age (If Lelyukov is anything to go by, he's been in a soldier since he was 10) but they have to pass a test in order to become a knight. They have a military school, but I think it's reserved for the elites and was only put in recently. The only person known to have come from it is Nero, who is pretty much the face of Helman's decay. Patton, Hubert and Aristoles all got private lessons from Thoma.

Does anyone know how to get past this bug in Rance 6? I've tried multiple installs/settings and it always fucks up after the intro dungeon.
I'm on Windows 8.1 and updated the game with the 1.5 patch.

I was using her as an example of the girls who aren't doormats but immediately cave in the moment Rance is kind of nice to them.

>>124184576
He could always get one if they ever do an update to RWN. Fact is, if he had a Leadership skill his stats would be almost identical to Barres except substantially worse.
>>
>>124186525
I've always assumed Ex was better at using his Strategy skill than Barres. Otherwise he already is a statistically inferior Barres.
>>
>>124186834
I wouldn't say better, just more fluid. Barres makes a point of how he always relies on the basics and is just really good at it, making him ideal for leading a massive army. Ex excels at guerrilla tactics with a small army and can think up new strategies on the fly. He also has a higher strategy success rate than Barres does in Kichikuou.

The Leadership skill isn't much about charisma to gain people over, but rather being skilled in command a big group of people. coordinating them and all that shit. With Leadership 2, Barres can command over the whole Leazas army efficiently.

All Alicesoft protags are closeted lolicons if they aren't openly one. Akuji's thinly veiled obsession with fucking his underaged aunt is a recurring plot-point in Daiakuji and Rance's closeted lolicon-ness actually gets made fun of in 03.
Rouga is also a minor himself so almost all of the H in Daibanchou depicts underaged content.
>>
>>124209591
Age of consent in Japan is 13. Still weird that Rouga is so young though. I'd figured he was 18.
>>
>>124210268
It's about 18 most everywhere there due to local laws, and I think you need consent of parents on top of that so really the 13 law is basically in name only.
>>
>>124210602
Considering the only parents we see in Daibanchou are a sexy mom and a dead scientist who creates his "daughter" with the ability to fuck, I'd say parental consent is pretty nonexistent in post-Hellhole Japan.
>>
>>124208980

Not really. They live in one of the most peaceful eras in the continent.

I bet he was originally going to be a suped up version of one of the close-ranged ninja enemies. I always felt like he and Sae were too similar in combat.
>>
>>124210980
So effectively everyone who sleeps with Rouga is a criminal unless they are around his age themselves.

unless Gou is considered his parental figure.
>>
>>124211065
That's pretty unfair to say considering how bad the previous eras were. The world is still a generally awful place filled with death and corruption. Comparing it to a period where humans were literally cattle is bound to make it look good.
I'll still disagree with >>124208980 slightly if only because they don't really live in an age where power rules over all.
>>
>>124211390
>unless Gou is considered his parental figure.
Pretty sure he actually is.
In which case, Gou offers to give him any below the belt advice he needs, meaning Rouga has full parental consent.

Crisis averted, everyone.
>>
>>124210980
To be fair, how old is anyone in Daibanchou supposed to be? Everyone in the School chapter is in the 16-18 range except for the teachers. Tamarin says he's 26 so we can assume Francine is around the same. Sure.
Come District Chapter: Is Sanzo a high schooler? Weird, but okay. What about Idagawa, whose going through PTSD after getting his best friend killed in a war that happened apparently years ago? Or Kyouko and her 6 year old daughter? Was she pregnant at 12? If they're older than that, why are they fighting for high schools?
Don't even get me started on the National Chapter.

Guy playing Kichikuoh again, need help with one last cg. It's the one before Leila's second h scene, with a blue girl and a pink girl who look like Royal Guards.

If you look at his pixiv, he really likes Kula. Has lots of illustrations with her.

Trying to fuck Leila two times before doing her subplot has Rance force her to let him fuck the Royal Guard. They should be in the harem after that.

Why?

>>124107973
I'm thankful that Arunaru translated this. I was always worried that it'd be one of the great-looking Alicesoft games that got kicked under the bus by translators only wanting to do Rance.
>>
>>124221052
Lucky half the cast are Rance characters.
I still think it has a lot of untapped potential that it needs more than Rance IX to achieve. Kids, cards and castle customization could all be really neat if they were more in-depth than they are.
>>
>>124222180
If Purin ever gets to be in charge again we'd likely get another Mamatoto or something similar.
>>
>>124222180
I wonder if Rance IX would have been better if Alicesoft didn't try so hard to make it Rance Mamatoto.

And what do you in mind that could make Mamatoto a more interesting game?
>>
>>124222697
All IX needed was some complexity in the gameplay
>>
>>124222697
The Mamatoto references in IX were fine, though it is a bit lame that they chose to make their second to last game rely so heavily on references to a completely unrelated game, especially when the story is so serious otherwise.

I was thinking that if each card had specific effects on the kid that was produced by it and there were more player input on the Kid creation process you could have a pretty complex unit making system that would allow for greater strategies. Generally I feel like Mamatoto's gameplay lacks depth even though it seems like it could easily have some.

Mamatoto is pretty well remembered, all things considered. Much more so than I would've thought. The real one that ended up getting lost in the crowd was Yoru ga Kuru.
Daiakuji was certainly the breakout hit though. Dare I say it reached near Rance levels.

Currently reading Haramase King and that's a horrible blurb
>>
>>124240838
Sounds eerily like the opening of Kaeru nyo Panyon.
>>
>>124241759
It's not.

The protagonist left the capital and works as an adventurer, saving villages etc from bandits in return for sex from girls.

Chris (not Cliff) disappears after a border skirmish with a neighbouring kingdom. It's heavily implied so far that the Prime Minister etc were involved in this.

They see no choice but to invite the protag back to become King, viewing a hedonist like him as someone who is easy to control and who won't interfere with government.

But then it turns out that Chris got a girl pregnant and they decide that the unborn child will be an even better King. Protags childhood friend Ceres supports this because she know hates him and thinks he will be a horrible king.

Protag is pissed off because he was looking forward to becoming King and researchs books and finds an old obscure law that a Prince who manages to father sons on the princessess of two neighbouring countries gets to become King.

So he sets out to do that.
One of the princessess is the blue haired, elf princess called Reset.

The other is the the holy princess who doubles as a nun who went undercover as the nun for a remote village in the prologue. She gets kidnapped by bandits, MC saves her. Bandits attack the village and he refuses to save the village unless she agrees to become his sex slave.
He forces her to give blowjobs to him and to random villagers in the church but doesn't get to fuck her because Ceres intervenes, planning to kill him so he doesn't become king.

I haven't completed the game yet but the reason he became an adventurer is because his lover (a peasant girl) was assassinated along with her friend (Ceres' sister). Some (including Ceres) believe he was responsible but the evidence is that the Prime Minister was.

There's bugger all gameplay but it has impregnation and preggo content so I'm happy. And protag is Rance-like
>>
>>124243690
I know.
I was just saying that the very beginning of the opening narration sounds eerily like Kaeru nyo Panyon what with the succession crisis and the older brother being the popular candidate.
Poron is an ultra beta who gets turned into a rabbit thing, not a pervert with an impregnation fetish.

Why do you get the unit more similar to Senna in combat when you go on her route instead of Kunagi's? Or vice versa for Kunagi's route?

>>
>>124245645
To go on Senna's route you have to fight the more defensively-oriented faction. To go on Kunagi's you have to fight the more offensively-oriented one. You're given characters that best fit your playstyle during the District Chapter.

>>
>>124258646

Haruka and Escalayer take place in the same city. I mentioned the Yoru ga Kuru! thing. The way the time travel in Haruka happens is thanks to a time-travelling bell much like the one in Pastel Chime Continue (and maybe the others?) The Haruka RPG on Alice 2010 has the PCC monsters in it, but I don't know if there's a particular reason for that or they're just reusing assets, since I haven't played it.

>>
>>124258968
Very cool. So is Escalayer set in the same universe as Haruka and Yoru ga Kuru? Or is it like a parallel world? I assume Haruka vs. Escalayer covers that pretty quickly. Then I guess the Pastel Chime games are also in a parallel universe? But Mamanyonyo already confirms that all Alicesoft games are set in the same multiverse so I guess that doesn't matter.

Still very weird to think that while the cast of Yoru ga Kuru are grappling with teen angst Haruka is out fucking dogs to save the planet.
>>
>>124259487

I'd guess that if they're directly connected, the Haruka RPG involves them being sent to the Pastel Chime world somehow.

My alicesoft images are all over the place on my computer and I had many duplicates. I'm trying to organise things.

This is my Shizuka fanart* folder.

It doesn't contain any images from the game though it contains 1-2 Rance IX battle screenshots.
Also has official images from merchandise and blog posts.

About 200 pictures.
Has some doujin covers but not the pages.

Probably the most pictures I have of a single Rance character though I also have plenty of Rance, Kanami and Reset.

My Hatsune folder is possibly bigger but on the other hand I also have all the in game images from the Rance series.

In the Rance games the Alicesoft building is always a weird extra-canonical paradox zone that the actual Rance characters are completely confused by. In Pascha its a convention that the characters are going to and have pre-existing knowledge of.

So, just finished Nan route in Sengoku Rance and got a 65 score.

Do my bonus points accumulate over the course of my playthroughs or I only get the highest score? Like, I have 77 points if I get 30 score now, would I have 107 points or still 77?
>>
>>124308034
77
>>
>>124308034
Your points are only based off of the largest score you've ever ended the game with. So if you get 77 one game and 65 the next your total points will still be 77.

I don't think people would have played SR as much as they did if bonus points stacked.

That said route bonuses DO stack up to 20 which combine with your max point finish run. So assuming you had 65 and cleared two routes, you'd have 75. If you managed to get 110 points but still only had two routes completed it'd be 120.

>>
>>124314693
I'd say he comes off as pretty well-meaning in 02. I'd say his gradual descent into a desperate and sketchy "nice guy" is related to Rance constantly fucking him over and blue balling him.

Being the eighth coolest male character in an eroge isn't enough to warrant a fan following.

>>124319103
But they all have their relationship events with Nanas and Kakaro. The men need to get a lot of screen time during the story so that they don't seem generic in comparison. It's a smart move.
That's also what ends up happening in IX, where Patton, Hubert and Rick end up doing more than most of the heroines.

Not really. They serve opposite purposes equally well. Rick is for assaulting, Cordoba is for defending. Rick also has the slight edge of having a special move.

>>124320869
One disadvantage Cordoba has is that the book of defense can only be used once per turn while the book of offense can be transferred from character to character until everyone has been used.

I don't think Medusa or even Kayblis have done anything close to what someone like Xavier has. Plus unlike Xavier or even Chenezale, they have moments where they are played for laughs. Neither of those two did anything particularly funny and just totally ruined several character's lives respectively. In my opinion anyway.
>>
>>124322831
Is it wrong that I used Cordoba to attack and never used Rick because anything hitting him rendered him useless?
>>
>>124328986
It's probably fine as long as you used Barres a bunch.
>>
>>124327361
>I don't think Medusa or even Kayblis have done anything close to what someone like Xavier has.
They both attacked Zeth and left it in a deplorable state.

>Neither of those two did anything particularly funny and just totally ruined several character's lives respectively.
You mean, outside of Kichikuou. Because Hawzel and Hornet instantly come to mind.
>>
>>124331749
Yeah but I mean on-screen and face to face. Xavier brutalized the JAPANESE before but you don't really care until he does again against you in SR with broken bullshit units and those fucking infected guys. He can steal your units, deny you other ones and in general is the biggest pain in the ass. I mean yeah, Kay-chan and Medusa both are assholes, but they haven't taken main-stage to personally fuck up Rance's life and more importantly the player's gameplay life.

Also neither of those characters were ever funny. Medusa and Kay-chan, even KR, which isn't canon anymore anyway, had some jokes and gags to be had. You want an example to use from KR look at Red Eye. Everyone hates that guy. He's a total bitch to fight, and he's fucking off the deep end unless you find the random shit he spouts funny.
>>
>>124332979
Red Eye's insanity is hilarious.
>>
>>124332979
>Everyone hates that guy.
But RedEye is great
>>
>>124332979
When I mentioned Hawzel and Hornet, I meant that Medusa and Kayblis fucked their lives up, not that they were meant to be funny(I expressed it incorrectly).
I take KR as a reference for those two because it's the only game were they actually made appearance. I was mostly refering story-wise, like, people dislike Sill or Bird but not because they fuck you up in gameplay.
>>
>>124333681
Nah I got what you meant but what i meant was both character did bad things but also were funny and entertaining otherwise. Xavier and Chenezale were just shitheads who did horrible things.
>>
>>124335383
Oh yes, I can agree with that.
Although you can have a villain that is an asshole without being funny and still love it, like Minerva.
>>
>>124335861
I don't think Minerva is quite as "personal" evil though. She never really royally fucked over someone's life -you- come to seriously care about as much as say Chenezale does. She's definitely evil and shit, and does some rotten things but she's also respectable too. She worked her way to where she was. She didn't eat some power up soul and suddenly start buttfucking the continent to have her way. If I recall correctly, even Rance respects her determinationq in the end.
>>
>>124324695
>Hunty is actually a Gunagan who fights you and then gives you crude shitty CG
>>
>>124328986
Yes. I've heard people say their Ricks sucked but he's always one of my best fighters whenever I play. His individual attack is so high that it should do most of the work for his units so his soldiers won't matter much. Cordoba, on the other hand, has a penalty on both offense and defense whenever he attacks and is made so he's pretty much only useful for defending, where he is one of the best characters in the game.
>>
Who would you rather have as a bro and why: Heita or Kuga?
>>
>>124340729
Rick has high damage but his defense is pretty shitty. He's the only character I have had several times very close to dying.
Honestly, he's only good against units with huge troop count so you can place him with Rance to attack the commander directly. Otherwise, Barres, Rance and even Café are much better choices for both attacking and defending.
Cordoba is only good at defending but he's really good at that, probably the best aside from Miki.
>>
>>124341653
Heita since you don't need to let people get raped to make him more powerful.
>>
>>124341653
Kuga because he's super cool and yet such a supreme beta that he'd let me have the girl he was crushing on and wouldn't say a thing. He's like BBA's Rick.

>>124341802
I find that Rick tends to lose his first 400 troops almost immediately and then spend the rest of the battle losing barely any. I assume it's because the commander's attack stat only gets factored in when they have fewer troops.

>>124342381
You have to kill him though.

>>124342882

Chart Anon here. What should I do next?

I have some interest in doing everything on this list at some point eventually which of course doesn't mean I'll do them.

I will do what ever wins though.

I'm less interested in doing a Zeth Chart at the moment because VI isn't out in English.

I'm fine with doing Rance charts at some point in the future (though not if I actually think a translation might come out in the near future) but would rather replay Evenicle before them.

If someone can suggest something else that is pretty interesting I might consider doing it

>Using Ex and Cordoba more than Rick and Barres
You're one of a kind, sir. I'm frankly surprised.
>>
>>124358312
it's that weird, huh? I just had the charge horn on Ex and the defense book on Cordoba and they managed most of my first attacks for at least 70% of my four playthroughs. I realize they weren't the best, but they required the least unit restocking for a majority of the game.
>>
>>124358930
They're both good units, don't get me wrong, but whenever people talk about Kichikuou on here you always end up hearing them say they spent the entire game basically only using Rance, Rick, Barres and then Cafe when they get her, which is exactly what my first playthrough experience was like. I think you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who used Ex and Cordoba to the same extent you did and weren't consciously trying to test new playstyles.
>>
>>124346703
Kuga doesn't have anything to do with that though. The clear actually involves him kicking the rapist off the party out of disgust.
>>
>>124359387
you have to recruit the rapist so yes, in a way, he does. The girl would still continue to be raped, and even it didn't her homeland is still burned to char and she'll die anyway. He just wouldn't work for you anymore. Heita's clears only effect Heita. Kuga's do not.
>>
>>124359556
That's only from a meta standpoint though. Within the story, it's entirely on Rouga for hiring Sparn because he was too afraid to make him his enemy. Kuga standing up to him makes him a bigger man than Rouga.
>>
>>124359852
Kuga lets him go though. He was at least on some sort of leash when he was in Wolf Fang, but off the team he's free to rape and kidnap all he likes.
>>
>>124359852
It doesn't matter because >>124342381 said specifically because Heita is better if you want to make someone stronger (or strongest) you'd have to do the same thing, and we actually know better. Rouga doesn't know, but we aren't Rouga. We efficiently are the meta, and since we are answering the question on our own behalf, we cannot discredit the meta grounds for the argument.
>>
>>124360095
The only way to actually "defeat" Sparn requires him to burn down Forestland. Rouga refuses to join up with him and Gou knocks him unconscious with a blow dart and then hypnotizes him into thinking that elves don't exist. Sonnet returns to Yuu and everything's A-okay. Otherwise no matter what you do he's still out there raping and brainwashing girls into thinking they're elves.
>>
>>124359189
I used Ex as one of my main attackers after Leila died on my first playthrough. The high success chance for tactics was nice.
>>
>>124361073
That still requires him to have raped Sonnet. You could recruit him and then immediately kill him in battle and that would be equally as effective as what you said.

Why is Leazas called a Kingdom when it is clearly a Queendom?

Rance is the king though.

which includes Lia's house. His word is law, or rather will probably be made into law since she'll do anything he says except maybe "build me a harem" and even then she'd still probably do it if he gave her puppy eyes.

>>124372423
Queendom of Great Britain? (Former) Queendom of the Netherlands? When has any country ruled by a queen ever been called a queendom?

So do I. Either that or some info/sketches from X. Like how they did with IX . And the first post was 1 year and a half before the game's actual release date.
>>

its a fate worse than death
>>
>>124376998
It's weird how that are not posting anything at all about X.
>>
>>124381196
Still quite a long while before it's time for more X posts though. They need to at least release Tsumamigui 3 first.

She'd build him a harem if he wants but she'd ask for privileges in exchange for doing so

>>
>>124381196
It's probably because they're working on 04 if anything Rance and X is still in planning.
>>
>>124381196
Probably not going to release anything decent in regards to X for quite a while, design sketches might start coming out within the next half year though

Who is that supposed to be on the right?
>>
>>124319492

He's not, the CEO's a guy who goes by Shiraking who has no direct involvement in game development. HIRO was the head of development for a while, but directs a bunch of games too, mainly Pastel Chime and the Beat *Whatever* games.
>>
>>124390807
It's a confusion between CEO and President of the company, I believe.
>>

Was he in charge of Big Bang Beat?
>>
>>124392435

That was a doujin game.
>>
>>124392509
What exactly does that mean? I looked it up and it was apparently made by an entirely different company. Does Japan allow people to make porn games, then allow other people to make fighting games based on that porn game without legal issue or did they get permission from Alicesoft?
>>
>>124392820

Japan's indie scene is passively accepting of copyright infringement, basically.

Yes. If the creators don't bother to issue copyrights, then you can do whatever you want.
>>
>>124394379
Heita fits the character archetype in the Dai games of the wannabe delinquent bruiser who joins your team early game and starts out shitty but ends up being high tier if you invest time into them. There's one in every Dai game.
>>
>>124394895
Who is it in Daiakuji?

Kimon Hajime. Heita and Raizou actually start out as being decent but then end up being completely over shadowed if you don't do their subquests. Hajime starts with an attack of 1 and is pretty much useless from the get go. He levels up whenever Akuji levels up, gains a ton of experience quickly, and has a ridiculously high evasion from the get go, so it's easy to make him a monster with some effort. He also has rich parents who sometimes send a lot of money.
>>
>>124395649
Heita's actually a nice guy though. The other two are kind of douchebags.
>>
>>124396369
Raizou is more clearly based on Hajime, but they all fulfill the same role in gameplay. It's like how FE always has stock characters. I can't think of any other example of a stock character in the Dai games though.
>>
>>124396754
Gou and Jun are both the financial adviser who gives you a status update at the beginning of each turn but suck in combat. Nobody does that in Daiteikoku though.
>>
Are there any group showing interest in translating Toushin Toshi 3DS?
>>
All the Daibanchou talk made me feel like playing it again. Opening my last save, it's another heroine phrase, which is really the negative aspect of Daibanchou in overloading on the heroine scenes.

Hopefully a refreshed mind will make it easier to play another long stretch of this.
>>
>>124398749
You mean a company? I don't think people have figured out how to fan translate a 3DS game yet since there's hardware copyright protection.
>>
>>124401160
Anon 3DS has been hacked for years and there's plenty of Japanese 3DS games translated by fans. Since Toushin Toshi 3DS is a remake of Toushin Toshi 2 a lot translated lines from 2 can probably be reused so I'm wondering if anyone is going to do it.
>>
>>124402120
What 3DS game has gotten fan translated?
>>
>>124402229
Fite Emblem 14 is mostly translated, Labyrinth no Kanata is 100% translated. There are some other but I don't pay attention to them.
>>
>>124402612
I thought fates was coming over officially next year anyways, not sure why they'd bother hacking to release it a couple of months in advance.
>>
>>124403064
Fans started translating it as soon as it was released in JP, by the time NA/EU release date got announced most of the story, menu and items have already been translated.
>>
>>124397024
Oosugi and Kuga are both from the main character's past and have stats comparable to them. They also both teach them their special move.

I remember Netscape. I'm grateful they integrated SSL/TLS in their web browser.

>>124403064
I never understood why people did that either. There are so many things that will never get translated, why waste your time on one that already is?
>>
>>124404370
Maybe they thought the super Japanese game wouldn't get translated, even though the predecessor sold well enough to avoid the death of a long standing series.
>>
>>124404031
Alicesoft is a very 90s company. Even their most recent games have a little tinge of nostalgia for the decade in them.
>>
>>124404605
What does Rance 03 have that's nostalgic for the 90s?
>>
>>124404758
03 actually seems like a weird attempt at being relevant, what with all the memes.
>>
>>124404890
You mean because of the guy from Grand Theft Auto? I haven't played the game so I'm not sure what other memes were introduced in the game.

Were Skyrim and GTA popular in Japan?
>>
>>124404370
Because FE community got huge after 13 and they didn't want to wait. With a lot of contributors it didn't take long at all for shit to get translated.

Meanwhile Alicesoft fanbase often only have a single fan translator working on a title over 2 years.
>>
>>124405531
Well, that's basically down to zero now since even qualified people that would like to fan translate don't want to step on anyone's toes.
>>
>>124405494
i know skyrim was but im not sure about GTAV

>>124405494
I'm pretty sure GTA is a niche thing in Japan.
>>
>>124405531
How big are Fire Emblem games in terms of text?
>>
>>124406612
Good point. They generally don't have 5000 lines explaining the internal machinations of sexual activity.
>>
>>124406761
I'd still play a translated Alicesoft game if none of the H scenes were translated. I guess a few of them are plot important though.
>>
>>124407492
Wasn't Aru thinking about not translating the H in Kichikuou because they were so short?
>>
>>124407886
I'm pretty sure he was thinking of not translating them since they're H-scenes, but later figured that it wasn't the end of the world since they were brief.
>>
>>124407886
That's dumb. As much as I don't play Rance for the porn, Rance without sex is not Rance.
>>
>>124407492
Same, I don't care to read text in H scenes, I just want to play the game for the story goddamnit.
>>
>>124408053
Would be play a Lance game? Starring, Lance, Rance and Lia's blue haired son?
>>
>>124408098
The problem is I think H is way more central to the story of the Rance games and Daiakuji so it really wouldn't work. You don't lose out on much if you remove the H from Daibanchou or Mamatoto.
>>
>>124408342
If you remove H from Mamatoto you lose a big part of Kakaro's character, which is really central to the story.
>>
>>124407492
I would too, but I would also shit talk translators for their faggotry
>>
>>124408563
I didn't do Kakaro's parts during my first playthrough and there's still enough there to tell you that he's a scumbag, which is all you really need to know.
>>
>>124409072
I didn't either, but there are some H-scenes in the story that aren't optional
>>
I wonder if our local photoshop expert is the one who made the Tilde garbage image.

The only directly reused lines from the original TT2 in TT3DS were some Toushin Digest lines. It's a full, extensive remake.

That game's in limbo and it's never going to come out officially, so if there's some hacker out there who wants to do the work, I'd be interested in fan translating it.

>there are some H-scenes in the story that aren't optional
I always thought those were weird. Him suddenly raping Mocha comes out of nowhere and Prince Priss' sisters doesn't get mentioned until he comes in to fuck her. Both of those seem like they could've just been put in Kakaro mode (Prince Priss' sister could be any random girl depending on the context) and nothing of value would be lost. Kakaro killing Priss and Karl is an important scene, him fucking his previously unmentioned siser is not.
>>
>>124409702
So she's in good company with a bunch of other garbage.
>>
>>124409253
It was by one of the Alicesoft staff:

http://blog.alicesoft.com/archives/4534838.html
>>
>>124409750
If you did skip everything Kakaro mode related, it was an add-on to showing his asshole-ness.
The Mocha scene was unneeded though.
>>
>>124409750
I guess it's to emphasize that he's a rapist douchebag, but personally I thought the thing with Nozomi was good enough.

Mocha might be to emphasize that even his subordinates mean nothing to him, I guess. As you don't really get that unless you do certain Nanas Mode events.
>>
>>124409650
Are you sure you can prise your mouth off MG's cock long enough to do that?

>>124409863
I take that means you don't think our local photoshop expert is actually a member of Alicesoft's staff.

Not sure who you're referring to, unless you're complaining about the Rance series or Alicesoft in general.
>>
>>124409990
>>124410003
Him brutally murdering Karl, who is set up as a good guy who would've definitely joined Nanas if given the chance, and killing Priss, who likely would've survived and helped Nanas had he not been, while also convincing Nanas that it was wrong for him to sympathize with them is more than enough evidence of him being an awful, manipulative person who only cares about Nanas to the extent that he can use him.

Maybe it was in that chapter that Purin remembered this was supposed to be an H-game.
>>
>>124410640
Slut
>>
>>124410703
That's what I think. Both of them happen so late in the game it seems like Purin was like "Oh, and Kakaro fucks some girls or something."
>>
>>124410640
Not if you're doing it right.
>>
>>124410640
Does that mean you're willing to do three projects at once?

Hot.
>>
>>124411094
Wouldn't be the first translator.
>>
>>124410640
You've translated too much Haruka Aru. Go rest.
>>
>>124411094
Maria was doing that for some time and only one of the 3 projects was actually released
>>
>>124410846
Remember, Mamatoto was originally going to be all about Kakaro fucking Nanas' bitches before presumably Purin came and lore'd it up.
>>
>>124411412
Was it Rance 1+2 digest? Also, just realized that Maria totally did illegally translate and release a work, though I'm not sure if Alicesoft really cared for a summary of two games they were giving away as freeware.
>>
>>124411694
It was Kara no Shoujo 2. Also, Widenyo and D&Dolls aren't free either.
>>
>>124411509
I don't know if you're pulling our legs, but if you're right, they should have had him/her involved with the Oyako Rankan OVA.
>>
>>124411694
All fan translation without explicit consent is 'illegal', if by illegal you mean a copyright violation. Freely distributed or not is irrelevant. It doesn't negate copyright.
>>
>>124411849
How much of D&D did Maria translate? I know she was involved with Widenyo, but I wasn't expecting her to have done much with D&D, partially because there's plot for like five minutes, then 20 hours of no plot before a 15 line ending. Either way, I don't think she was considered the main translators of either of those projects at the time of release (regardless of whether she did all the work or not).
>>
>>124411861
It was originally called Ghetto Papa or something like that and the main focus was NTRing. I don't even think the story and gameplay were a part of it at that point. It was early on though.
>>
>>124412106
That title doesn't make me think magic moving castle. I wonder if he/she could have made Rance 5A, 5B or 5C work.
>>
>>124411412
She did a pretty good job of pretending to translate Quest.
>>
>>124411849
Nor Kaeru nyo Panyon either.
>>
>>124412097
Probably everything, since we know that Ludo never did anything anyway
>>
>>124412307
I still enjoy the thought of ninja squids.
>>
>>124412268
She did translate it, it's just never going to be released.
>>
>>124412268
Seeing as the percentage is still going up, she's still doing it.
>>
>>124412448
I wish Aten had left that in.
>>
>>124412251
Purin is responsible for Patton being such a well developed character. He was originally going to die in the end of III, but Purin created an entire backstory for him and became too attached to his character. He also lobbied to put Rick in III if I remember correctly.
Purin was the Director of Mamatoto and created most of the story elements. He's also why the male cast is considerably larger than the female one and the erotic content is almost secondary.
In the earlier games he was in charge of making the designs for all of the male characters.
I general, he specializes in telling high fantasy stories with elaborate lore but doesn't seem particularly talented or interested in the ero part of eroge.
>>
>>124412268
It has better odds of being picked up than other Alicesoft titles. Too bad Atlach=Nacha's potential translator didn't manage to get it done before the deal was officially announced, not that I know how long the game is or how hard the Japanese is. Still, even though Arunaru hinted that he should translate it ASAP, I totally expected that to mean Arunaru wanted to translate it.
>>
>>124412595
I liked the porn in IX
>>
>>124412757
I don't think Orion played much part in that. He was definitely responsible for the unusual prominence of male characters and the overabundance of Mamatoto references though.
>>
>>124412757
I wonder if Purin ever imagined that the game he helped create would not only be used as a template to an entire series of mobile friendly titles but also for a main Rance title.
>>
>>124412757
TADA was the director for the heroines scenes.
>>
>>124413018
He was the director of IX, so I think that played a big part in its Mamatoto-ness.
>>
>>124409739
Does this mean a member of Alicesoft's staff really dislikes Tilde?
>>
>>124412714
Nothing's stopping him now. They haven't given a shit about BBA's patch still being up. Why should they care about any of the other ancient things that have no chance of ever being released?
>>
>>124413160
Considering they said she would appear more in the series right after her debut in Quest, I'm guessing it's the opposite.
>>
>>124412938
>I don't think Orion played much part in that.
*Purin
Obviously Orion was a big part in why IX has good H.
>>
>>124413097
>>124413140
I didn't think porn games would have multiple directors.
>>
>>124413173
What's stopping him is that it takes work, and as Ludo amply demonstrated, it's easy to say you're doing work, and much harder to actually do it.
>>
>>124413173
By that logic, Aru could release VI any time.
>>
>>124413160
Not really, just that he thought that the garbage bag full and tie had a similar shape with ~'s head.
>>
>>124413327
What if the translator is a mute?
>>
>>124413327
Did Ludo do anything besides make the lore sight and sort of act as a figurehead for the translations?
>>
>>124413575
Little Princess translation.
>>
>>124413401
My first thought would have been Hey Arnold!'s protagonist's head shape, but I doubt that had much of a following in Japan. Though now that I think about it, I'm not sure if in Japan, people will go online and watch western shows and cartoons as much as people in the west might go online and watch anime.
>>
>>124413390
But he (and some other people) believes there are chances that it'll be localized. I doubt anyone thinks Atlach Nacha even has a chance.
>>
>>124413390
Yeah, he could. Anybody could. Until he receives a C&D, there's nothing preventing him. Of course, like with all fan translations, he's then vulnerable if Alicesoft/MG wanted to sue him, but they'd have to show lost profits. You have to be pretty fucking malicious to be on the hook for criminal copyright infringement instead of civil.
>>
>>124413575
On a personal level, he got me interested in the series. Other than that, I guess he thought up of some synonyms to make Little Princess less impossible, translated 10% of 5D and lied a lot.
>>
>>124413660
Avatar TLA apparently has a solid japanese fanbase.
>>
>>124413672
Can't say the idea is too prevalent though. At least, I don't think there are many games in the west about a lesbian spider monster eating boys and... absorbing energy from people having sex? I'm not all that familiar with the premise of Atlach=Nacha myself, it seems. I did like the think on the wiki stating that your first time though, you'll probably spare everyone, which will lead to all the boys getting eaten and none of the girls getting harmed. Seemed like a nice touch to put in a game of that nature.
>>
>>124411849
Pretty sure she only worked on Cartagra, not KnS2.
>>
>>124413645
Nope. Not if all the leaping on the swords after all the fuckups came to light were to be believed.

Of course, the same thing happened with Widenyo's initial release. Maria claimed all the problems were her fault, and bad editing, but Ludo was a great translator.
>>
>>124413867
I'll grant that he's a big reason Rance's English fanbase ever really unified at all.
>>
>>124413989
Yeah, that's proably it. I'm not too familiar with the eroge translation scene outside of Alicesoft.
>>
>>124413886
I saw it, it was pretty good. Haven't seen the sequel, though I've heard it wasn't as good.
>>
>>124413886
>>124413660
Yeah, they do. And you know what they're called? Regular people. The US's biggest export is our entertainment media, and it's translated into just about every language and broadcast on regular TV everywhere. If you think anime is big in Japan, you are not prepared to know what they think about Disney.
>>
>>124413989
I think you got that backwards, I believe she just fixed up another translator's mostly finished translation for Cartagra and did KnS2 entirely. Could be wrong though.
>>
>>124414151
I'm going to need a quote about America's biggest export.

He must have spent forever drawing all the CGs considering the file size of each CG in Rance VI is in the low 200kB while some CGs in Rance IX went above 2MB in size. I know the window size is greater than the 800x600 window for Rance VI, but that's still a massive increase in art per image.

Adventure Time's is pretty much the original.
Garnet sounds like a drag queen in the Steven Universe one but it's otherwise normal.

I guess I'll update it for the next thread

Anything else that people want added?
I'll add the Kanami translated camwhoring stream as well.
>>
>>124431712
If you're taking pastebin editing suggestions, here's some stuff I spotted.

Might want to remove Ludo's twitter cause it no longer exist.
The Rance 01 section should be updated with the info for the third OVA.
Might want to add Tsumamigui 3 there, although it could wait after it's release.
Should tidy up the Mamatoto side, add a new link to the patch.
Maybe add Yoru ga Kuru! to the Notable list, cause it is Alicesoft's pseudo-Persona, but that's a personal thing.
Ludo's youtube channel and Livestream seems pretty irrelevant now too.
>>
>>124433437
>Maybe add Yoru ga Kuru! to the Notable list
Agreed.
>>
>>124435048
I'd put it there even if just for the OST
>>
Anyone have a Mamatoto link?

I could upload myself I guess.

All the other changes have been made plus

-Added the charts and polls download link
-Added link to download Blade Briders OVA
-Added link to Kanami camwhore scene
>>
>>124438217
I can provide the link, I don't think Arunaru ever updated the patch, did he?
>>
>>124438667
>>124438667
Not that I recall. I can read Japanese to some extent so I never used the patch
>>
>>124438217
Here's the link.

Has anyone ever beaten the evolved version on Mad King in Widenyo? I've never seen anyone talking about beating him or even a video anywhere. Considering the requeriments to get him to appear, I'm guessing barely anyone even met him in first place, but I still kinda wanted to see someone fighting him.
>>
>>124450583
like everything else in Widenyo

You grind.

>I'm guessing barely anyone even met him in first plac

Yes because only so many people actually play Rance. Also I'm pretty sure there are videos out there for it.
>>
>>124450892
Ah, found two people beating him it on nico douga. One on cross cave level 6759 using a level 15000 Magic and other on 7976 with a full party made out of a level 1 healer, a level 2000 spy, a level 6001 Urza, a level 8001 Valkyrie, a level 8500 Gou and a level 10001 Poron. Guess I have got a long way to go in my grinding.
Also found someone killing Crazy King in IX by wearing him down with Rance, Patton and Sen and saving the very last hit for Kanami's fire bowl, which is always amusing.
>>
>>124452219
Gou can't beat anything.
>>
>>124453505
Gou has a special skill in Widenyo that makes every enemy target him. It's great for Mad/Crazy King.

Lighting the SLC signal. OP and ED can't play when the game tries to. This is post-SLC patch, so I'm guessing I'm missing something?
>>
>>124457296
Why would you even be playing Daibanchou?

Because it's great

sup?

Apparently the SLC signal is calling him dead, who knew.
>>
>>124459742
Maybe he has a bot like Daiz's that warns him whenever he's mentioned.
