>Upcoming Events
Drawfag Weekend - Shizuka Weekend starting July 28th
Marishiten in DHR when?
>>183723118
>>183723118
Maria made a poor showing back when we talked about the top five girls two threads back.
>>183730395
>status of Rance Quest
>at least 70% translated
Does that include Magnum or just vanilla?
>>183731739
Blame the false god.
>>183731739
In my opinion the most STEM-friendly girls are maria, sill and hazuki.
>>183735993
>Sill
>>183730395
>npt using the traditional Shizuka birthday image
>>183735993
I'd say that for S, Rose or Rosé, however the spelling is, would be the most fitting girl.
The girl in the television in Rance 01 might be the strongest suit for T, Maria is obviously E. Maria's assistant might be an M, not sure if any girl really fits as an M on the continent.
>>183736682
Is there actually a Shizuka birthday image? I can only image her birthday image being her nakadashi image from Rance 03 saying "You just gave birth, now get back to work" or something like that.
>>183737876
top kek is that for real
>>183730395
Considering that I'm from the first half of STEM, it is safe to assume that the question she's asking is hard?
>>183737731
Uruza could be T, she made that phone in SR. If not then Papaya.
>>183738393
you should be able to solve it
>>183738534
What level of mathematics education am I looking at here in order to be able to solve it?
>>183736623
Maybe he's referring to the gloves she gets from the calculator cube dungeon. Those totally look like the gloves used in Minority Report, which is totally technological. I'm not sure which branch Hazuki would fall under though.
>>183740069
>>183736623
I wrote sill because a girl who does all the chores and smooths over spoken gaffes and is endearing to most others is a good asset for a STEM guy
>>183742916
Just get Sheila then.
>>183737876
We use this one every year but there is still time for a birthday thread anyway.
>>183737876
Make this
>>183743119
But I am EOP
>>183731739
Maria has never been that popular here. Or at least most people generally like her without her being one of the favourites.
there are some pretty good rance H comics
some of the best are the non-H ones desu
>>183745185
Yeah an anon here commissioned a lot of them.
>>183745254
thanks mystery anon
you da man
>>183735993
Miracle?
Replica because Robot girl?
>>183745785
oh man that scene from 02 with the lewd mirror
has a comic about it
Page 10 already?
>>183747898
Normal speed for this time of day.
>>183743876
Maria was fun when she got a lot of screen time for bullying in retro. Nowadays she just longs for Rance and is boring.
>>183748906
Going from Sengoku to 02, I found her a lot more interesting and fun in the latter. She bounced off Milli well too.
While 02 is pretty dated, it's events make it fun.
>>183749150
02 is a game with heavy Maria (as are 03/IV)
She barely existed in IX
/vg/ is fast
>>183738393
Its first year university mathematics.
>>183752274
My first year of university maths was Linear Algebra & DiffEQ, Multivariable Calculus, and Discrete Maths.
Don't remember doing abstract Riemann Zeth Function stuff.
>>183755112
To be fair my first year of uni was in 2010. Early uni years merge together a bit.
>>183730395
STEM should be a player in our VGL team.
>green icon for this tab instead of blue
Did I miss something?
>>183759762
Doubt
Youtube changed again
/haniho/?
Anybody out there?
KANAMI
>>183756770
I'll take note.
Guys please help. I want to character clear all mouri units for their bonus, but I cant capture any of the girls before Shimazu annexes them.
>>183774001
Can't you do it in True or Isoroku routes?
So Ixseal on Friday?
>>183774982
Thursday morning or afternoon for those in the west.
>>183774101
But Im already in the middle of the monkey kill route
>>183775521
Did you already do the event battle where you fight the entire Mouri house with your troops?
>>183775894
Yep, got a province out of that
>>183777735
I can only recommend trying to get them on the true route and using Shizuka with her sticky ground ability.
What the fuck was his problem?
>>183778880
Passive aggressive Obsessive ugly creep
>>183777735
If you really want to capture all the Mouri units in that route then, you better start save-scumming until you get at least one of them then. Abuse DWH and Sticky Ground.
Don't be afraid to go a few turns back if it becomes necessary.
>>183778880
face too big, also evil
>>183778880
He works out at the library
>>183778880
He wanted to fuck Kurohime.
>>183779276
>>183775894
Will try, thanks!
>>183774001
easy to do in any non-KTM route, just go west first and use Takuga to uncurse Mauri.
>>183779601
Already conquered them, can I still do It?
>>183779838
yeah, get the ninja girl to normal and do the event chain in the province where uruza has the phone call
>>183734268
Magnum included.
I want him playable in X

source in the pastebin?
>>183777657
Is it just me or does Kiku always seem to be in the background of these things?
>>183785531
it's more than she deserves anyway, she should be grateful
>>183785617
She has big boobs, so it's fine.
>>183785979
One of the few boobjobs we see Rance get
>>183783892
I love how Bird slips further and further into asshole-ness and unlikability with each game he appears in. From being a playboy and stupid in II to being weak-as-hell in 4.X to being a desperate, horny jerk in 5D.
>>183790175
>>183785396
the translated are in the pastebin.
>>183790868
I kinda expect Bird to be sick of his constant failures and finally, in a bid to get respect, eats a Demon Blood Soul but ends up being overtaken by the Demon inside it.Probably Abert's.
>>183737876
Someone make this for this weekend.
>>183783892
>that filename
I'm off. Stay alive. Rance X news soon.
>>183800760
Actually it may a couple weeks before we get more info. Or maybe there will be leaks by the people who they get for debugging.
>>183801231
I hope not. That was pretty bad when it happened to Pascha 3.
>>183802864
what happened there? forced sendoku?
>>183803772
>sendoku
is that even a thing you do in japan anymore or just a story from a bygone era
>>183709020
>by the actual Uesugi Kenshin
Is it going to be extremely weird reading about this part of japanese history
>>183730395
So, Shizuka event and Ixseal release are on the same date.
Can we handle that much activities?
>>183806380
Easily because only the Japanese readers/MTers will play Ixseal and even then not all of them.
>>183805589
Why? that part is referenced in games/anime/manga all the time nayway.
>>183802864
But that was data that people could get from the demo.
In this case we will likely get people posting spoilers on 2ch, but then there will likely me many fakes spoilers in the midst of a few true ones. Maybe someone will post a pic taken with cellphone, but that may be hard to do.
>>183803772
Alicesoft started having actual trials that let you try out the gameplay with pascha 3. But that trial had a lot of content from the game in it, although unavailable for the player, which people accessed by hacking the game. And that's pretty easy level stuff, anyone here could do it with those tools for Alicesoft system, like aindecompiler.
Since them they take more care to delate any spoiler content from the trials, so any spoilerful content on them is minimal.
44 hours to Kiriel.
Soon some people that get the game earlier may be commenting on 2ch.
>>183814420
Which tend to be people who work on eroge shops or friends so they can get the package version before it's officially being sold
>>183778880
Oh, I read that as what was his weapon. Maybe it's death's left hand on a stick.
>>183785979
Rance has his priorities straight. I bet they didn't do that again once she gave the okay for real sex.
>>183745934
Are you saying Miracle because she knows where all skeleton bones go?
>>183743597
What spell make her skin go dark?
>>183825634
Its a pill. I don't remember if its mentioned, but likely a pill with the photoshop spell.
>>183825890
*photoshock
Has anyone solved the problem in OP yet?
>>183800760
Yamamoto best wife
>>183800760
Did Alicesoft indicate that they'd be giving more information soon?
>>183832715
No. Although it's not a stretch to expect info at least a few weeks after Ixseal is released, but not too soon.
Also if they follow the pattern, we may get a post about the current projects on first or second Friday of next month.
But then that was done only twice, so may be too early to know if it's an actual pattern they plan to follow.
I just read that after obtaining the popularity staff, if you go to war and get conquered, the staff will be unlocked for other playthroughs. Does that check out?
>>183837392
I doubt it.
>>183828706
Someone said that it was an undergraduate level mathematics question, so I'm fairly certain that someone has solved this question or a similar one.
>>183826380
That doesn't sound like a real spell name.
>>183743340
When's her birthday?
>>183840578
30th
Haniho
>>183837392
I think you'll need to clear the playthrough for it.
>>183825634
Semen demon seduction
SEN
>>183839218
>>183845750
Yeah, tried it out because I had nothing better to do. The info was junk.
>>183856121
Canon Maris blowjob when?
KANAMI
KANAMI 3 TIMES
>>183823175
She's a researcher who travels to different dimensions and shit.
Given the renewed Sengoku interest and the fact that its been three years since our actual last popularity poll for Sengoku would there be any interest in running another one?
>>183779451
who doesn't. Kurohime is underrated as fuck.
>>183870328
I doubt there will be much difference between them. The top spots will probably stay the same while the lower ones shuffle around a little.
>>183876290
No way Pastel is that short.
>>183839841
It is, and it's a pun on photoshop, because it's a spell that lets one take a different appearance by adjusting their own a little.
>>183876290
Heights based on KR?
>>183876290
>Lia is 48kg
That's with the baby right?
>>183883251
Avel
>>183880980
Pastel being 155cm is from Quest characters info blog post
http://blog.alicesoft.com/archives/2985156.html
>>183883324
Cute. Also only 38 kgs.
Rance could pick her up and bend her over all sorts of objects.
>>183883502
Most girls in Rance are pretty small. Even Shizuka, who seems to be taller due to her long legs, is less that 160 cm.
>>183884340
Well they're nice legs at least.
>>183876489
I'm more worried about that weight.
>>183884531
Kalar have light bones.
>>183884597
>>183884340
Sheila being taller than Shizuka always gets me.
>>183887496
It feels wrong. Sheila seems much smaller than Rance in the CGs.
>>183889693
Yeah.
>>183884340
It's actually because of her big hat
>>183890653
Nah its the legs.
>>183889693
The majority of the characters are taller than Shizuka.
>>183889693
It may be that while Sheila has a very petite body even if around same height as Shizuka. Which is why she's also 6 kilos or so lighter.
Is Rance X still a 2017 release?
>>183895872
Looks to be unlikely if they are doing closed playtesting in August. They could squeeze it in by December, but with bugtesting and reports, I think they would probably release in 2018, Golden Week like many suspected.
My friend can't get the sound to work for Rance 3. There's no other options for him to pick here. He's running windows 10. Anyone got any idea what's wrong?
So I have beaten the monkey route, but It doesnt update my post game notes. How can I fix that?
>>183898276
For Rance III?
I have Windows 10 and its lke this.
>>183900226
Yeah, everything is muted and he can't change it. No idea what's wrong.
>>183900646
Has he tried redownloading it?
>>183901014
Multiple times. I even gave him my copy, which I know has working sound and it still doesn't work for him.
>>183901361
Odd. I wish I could help but it sounds like you suggested everything I thought of.
>>183898276
Run it in compatibility mode?
>>183901361
Did he download _inmm.dll setup stuff?
>windows 10
That might be the issue. It works fine for me on Gentoo.
>>183793425
Nah, Bird somehow travels through time and becomes the one-armed knight who brings Rance to Gomorrah town and then dies.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to outlast the Main Enemy Force in Rance 6? I am trying real damn hard and I barely make it past Seizel.
21 hours to Ixseal.
Where can I get Rance Quest Magnum? All the torrents are dead..
I'm renewing my mobile contract and as I could get something cheaply and I didn't really need phone or other hardware I decided to give those windows tablets a go.
So, it has windows 10. Anyone here with it? Does it have any problems with SR, Daibanchou, Quest or any other AS games?
>>183828706
If you want to read a document related to the problem in OP:
http://www.claymath.org/sites/default/files/official_problem_description.pdfIt's the same kind of problem as the Collatz conjecture.
>>183908301
Don't chase after her.
>>183909726
The pastebin. The torrents work its just that the seeds don't show up.
>>183913416
It runs all of them for me.
>>183916562
Okay, thank you.
>>183916636
>It runs all of them for me.
Thanks. Have you tried Kamidori too by any chance?
>>183868164
What does she research?
>>183730395
I just noticed the name of the OP image. I'm not sure I understand what it's trying to say.
>>183885434
I wonder how many Q-tips she goes through in a day with that many ear folds.
>>183731285
Was he even notable? I'm asking because I got the bad ending of Rance 4.2 and never replayed it to see the actual ending.
>>183746272
How many erotic things did he do to her?
>>183876290
Does Alicesoft care about blood types? This image reminds me of those images that will mention the person's three sizes and blood type. I don't remember seeing Alicesoft do that for any of their series.
>>183925885
Q-tips are a brand and not an item. The Continent doesn't have Q-tips so none.
>>183927571
You talk like an old man
>>183920092
>Sean Bean as Rance
>Dies to the first enemy
>>183929665
So Rance IV?
>>183734268
That must be an old stat. The site where she was posting the percentage was taken down a while ago, after all.
>>183730395
>STEM Edition
Based OP, really deforms my contours.
>>183934858
Is that some maths jargon?
>>183936017
Yeah, I couldn't think of a good "activates my almonds" joke.
>>183738393
Serious answer? It's ballbustingly hard, it's a literal million dollar question.
Just for anyone worried about the OP problem, I can reassure you that anyone who is educated in mathematics enough to be able to read it will also be educated enough to know that they can't do it.
>>183755112
Did you do a physics degree or something? That's a bit of a weird course for a mathematics degree.
>>183774001
I think that with the exception of Kiku you can still recapture them back from Shimazu and clear them.
>all mouri units
>units
Never mind, you're fucked. Just do it in KTM or before entering the Ran route.
>>183778430
>>183774101
>>183779601
Chinu needs you to be in Ran or KTM.
>>183779897
He's already conquered them, he's fucked unless he captured Kiku prior to the conquer.
>>183837392
>>183856206
As a second game bonus, yes. I imagine so at least.
>>183900040
Are you running the FunwaNovel version?
>>183916157
>It's the same kind of problem as the Collatz conjecture.
You're either very educated or very stupid, I can't tell which.
>>183925580
Same here.
>>183607112
>>183605412
Repeating this from last thread, what the fuck is the "HyperPorn Edition" of SR?
This is my reminder to follow up on last thread and use tomorrow morning to work out the mechanics of that event with Shibata teaching Rance his ways.
Goodnight /haniho/.
>>183942643
There isn't one.
>>183927383
Notable enough to make Miracle's dreamteam.

>>183938797
Wow I bet you're a lot of fun at parties
>>183890653
Its more than that.
>>183885434
Does she ever have consensual sex with Rance?
>>183955734
Not really.
>>183955734
>Kalar
>consensual sex
Pick one.
12 hours until Ixseal!
>>183938797
I needed the math for some EE classes I was doing along with my CS major. Math majors still take those classes though.
>>183898276
Bit late tech support but Rance 3 uses Midi for music, see if he can play any midi file first, if that works fine then things get complicated.
>>183923365
Parallel universes
P. 10 once again.
Stay alive for 10 hours
>>183928084
We have the three sizes for some of the girls from II-IV.
>>183774001
I knew that would happen ahead of time, back during my first playthroughs of SR, and went into a rage, doing everything in my power to make sure it didn't happen. But as a result, Shimazu couldn't annex anything because I'd conquered all that land before they even became accessible, which sort of made them pushovers.
What happens in the Mouri Annexing scenes anyway? Do they fug the sisters?
>>183968646
The sisters convince mouri to ally with shimazu, because they fell in love with them.
KANAMI
Thread so sleepy that it needs two Cessna images in a row.
>>183980476
Pretty much. Well drawfag weekend this weekend and Ixseal soon for those that will play.
>>183971118
Disgusting.
>>183967902

Anyway know how to recruit Yukihime?
I got the first event with her on the run, then Uesugi declared war (doesn't seem to be linked). I've got Asakura Yoshikage to Normal but the search command isn't appearing.
>>183984861
You can't do it in your first playthrough.
>>183985215
Not on first playthrough.
>>183985264
Save now and advance a few turns to see if the option turns up?
>>183984861
Try talking to him again after getting him to normal?
>>183985306
Just tried this. 2 turns later she makes Takeda declare war.
>>183985396
No purple event.
Not sure what's going on here. Does he just have to be normal or normal 7 or something?
>>183985568
What is your national power at?
>>183985659
Fuck I'm retarded, that was it. Thank you so much anon.
>>183737876
>>183986475
Perfect
What is the one minor character (that is unlikely to appear) that you most want to appear in Rance X?
For me its Kurohime.
Others include Millie, Ssulal, Arios, Somita and Nelson.
>>183987641
Millie.
3 hours until Ixseal. Anybody want comments + whatever if I play?
In theory, I could stream if I censored sex scenes using ALDExplorer prior.
>>183987796
Yeah blogpost your playthrough.
I'd do it myself but I don't have the spare time until mid August.
I'd like to see some blogposts senpai
>>183943667
Then what made anon's screenshot look like that? I find it unlikely that he'd fuck around with his stuff just to mindfuck anyone sharp enough to catch it.
>>183968646
Pro tip: You don't actually have to fight Shimazu in the Ran route. Pic related.
For those wondering, here's what happens in the Tokugawa dungeon if you don't have Senhime.
>>183990301
fucking raccoon dogs
>>183943349
Oh dear, this isn't going to be nice,
Rance VI question. In Amber Castle when I go up the stairs and step on the star it says something about Kabachahn being too strong and it sends me back to the base screen. How do I get past that? Does my team need to be a certain level?
>>183990675
Man I always wonder who came up with choosing minus two billion and some change as true.
Or is that some decompiler artifact.
>>183990901
Break the alarm i think
>>183990901
Every time you go in you have to smash the communication device on the bottom floor.
>>183990901
Did you try to deactivate the alarm system?
>>183990993
>>183991089
>>183991094
Ah. I did destroy it once but I didn't realize I had to redo it every single time. Thanks
>>183990675
>>183990943
>>183943349
Yeah, fuck this. It'll take me ages to work out.
>>183987641
Cessna.
Others would be Io, Tomato, Pulptenks, Millie and Ssulal.
>>183990675
32 bits means you have 2^32 possibilities for numbers. When you have negatives too, then you have 2^31 on each side of the decimal.
2^31 is 2147483648. This number is actually 0x80000000 in hexadecimal, assuming it's a 32 bit, two's complement number. Doesn't look very weird in that format (0b10000000000000000000000000000000 in binary). Not sure why they'd do that instead of -1 though.
I is a decompiler artifact of sorts (or moreso a compiler artifact.) It was likely an enumerated value (EVENT_SEEN or someting) but at compile time, every instance gets replaced by the value. It's why things like the number of provinces are a pain in the ass to change, even though alicesoft (probably didn't hard code them).
And technically, it doesn't mean true. The function outputs the number 1, which evaluates to true.
I'm not entirely sure what the kanji==2 is for though, I've only seen it a few times and it was never relevant to me.
Keep going at it, you can do it!!
How do I get Rizna's S level weapon? I've already beaten all the different hannies once, but now I can't fight them anymore. Did I misunderstand what I'm supposed to do?
>>183990675
I don't know much about coding but is this something you post on /g/ to laugh at?
>>183996285
You need to beat all the hannies while having their number beaten on the sign outside be the same for them all (ie: all of them have 4 beaten), if uneven go and beat them and leave the stage till you even it out. After that a staircase in the middle opens, go down there.
Remember to bring keys.

I think I've cracked it.
The default value is presumably 1, although I can't seem to find proof of this.
Nobunaga falling sick sets it to 2.
Entering Kenshin or Ran route will sets it to 3 and so will Kouhime going missing.
>>184001389
>debug function
My thoughts exactly, thanks toufu.
>>184001667
If you fully decompile the game, it shows up in the globals.jaf file (along with all of the other initializations).
If I can figure out how to get compile from scratch to work, I can actually change the globals section. I actually want to create a separate save data grouping and save folder to ensure there's not conflicts with a previous file, otherwise I just have to fit things into free spaces in global flags.

That reminds me I need to finish Quest. I was at the end of the first world and stopped there as I was too lazy to grind.

>blue is milf
>>184056919
I don't really care about it though. It may be a better game objectivly speaking but now that I've played through most of the Rance games I'd like to finish them before they're 10 years old like I've been doing with the older ones.
>>184056995
Rance VI did well enough. It's just that MG and Alicesoft don't want to prioritize only Rance. Which is perfectly acceptable, it's far better choice to offer variety for their fans. I'm just saying I personally don't like it as the games I'm really interested in will be released years after their initial release. That's it.

Unfortunately there's no Azuel scene (And I have all 1st scenes with bosses, every pre-route split sex scenes, every kichiku sex scene, and all kichiku endings. She might hide in Harem end though)it should be no surprise to anyone there are love, kichiku, and harem ends
>>184103489
True, Subaru had so little scene it's borderline criminal. Though, 3 out of 4 Subaru's defeated scene involved her milking.

It's killing me too. Luckily someone uploaded a rip of the game's CGs on ehentai but I'm not sure if it's everything. There doesn't seem to be any scenes of pic related or any of the other villians. The sex scenes look great but it almost feels like a downgrade. The other games had at least one sex scene with all of the villians. https://e-hentai.org/g/1092904/75424012da/

>>184107081

>>184107228
remember these are the guys who won't give Millie a scene ever again.
>>184106027
The CGs look rather boring honestly
>>184107298
I guess I was too kind when I decided to hold them to new standards. Come to think of it, I shouldn't have expected much given how most of the lv3 rape scenes in the last two games ended. We'd get an entire scene of the main heroine completely breaking down and giving up to cocks. It didn't matter if they got pregnant because backup would always arrive at the last minute and cleanse them completely.
>>184107479
It has way less CGs than the Escalayer remake and a bit less CGs than Haruka's game.
>>184107664

>>184108138
Heartful Maman is done by the same artist as Ixseal. I wouldn't put it past them to have one of the games hastily finished so they could work on the other, or have both of the games somewhat rushed to get them both done during their deadlines. Ixseal should have been bigger after the new standards the Escalayer remake teased us with.
>>184108180
Heartful Maman was quite clearly a quickly done game for cashflow.
>>184107479
It has more vanilla scenes than rape scenes for some reason. I wonder if they got confused with why people actually got into the series.
>>184103489
Actually, I lied. Azuel DOES have an ero scene.rather, corruped Azuel does. She's not as hot though.

It doesn't imply the fetish part. It's a nukige.

>>184131658
There were a good number of scenes. The game itself is pretty long I guess - 4 hours if you skip every scene, and play on easy mode (kichiku).
The girls' lust meter recovers a bit every chaper, so you can feed them to a boss once each chapter for free stats and AP without worrying about bad ends. Reaching full lust and getting the runaway end requires a pretty fucking deliberate effort though.
>>184132254
More likely is that you still had it cached.

>>184132254
Doesn't MG sell some non-porn and non-Japanese games that you can't legally get anywhere else?
For those of you who thought that the station newbies are samefags, do you have any way of telling which is legit?
>>184146939
Sengoku not station
W-When are my fellow hannies drawing Shizuka?
>>184148692
I'll only be able to get on a computer next week. It'll be shit anyway.
>>184146939
>>184147134
Screenshots are a good hint.
Alright, so does anyone know what I'm missing for getting all of this map? The space missing after exit 19 is a treasure chest so I know its not there, however I do also know that some teleports disappear after using like 7* and I think some of them also change destination after the first use then disappear like either the 6 or the 15 after exit 4. I'm at a loss really.
>>184153356
I also know that the one teleporter I forgot to label doesn't help at all either.
>>184153356
>>184153701
You can't revisit the map so make sure to do it right
Is Dark Rance living in Rance Castle?
>>184153791
Thats why I'm asking. It's going to be a bitch having to find out which teleporters change their destinations, made even harder by the fact that up until today I had no idea how to get to 9, which probably means I have to loop past it
and check 10, 14, and 19
>>184154824
Yeah
>>184125625
Is this art based on Rance 03?
>>183745785
Can ghost Suzume talk to Kanami?
>>184158256
Yeah, but that´s before she passed on.
>>184158715
Did Feb catch her?
>>184158856
What I recall is that she passed on once Kanami became more competent but I could be wrong.
>>184153701
>it was a fake space
God damn it.
>>184054363
No one has complained about her twin tail design, so I guess this is fine.
>>184162653
The ojou curls make it work
>>184117483
I think it would be a little unfair if the enemies from Ixseal had invincibility fields, not that I've played the game.
>>184108258
Not him, but how? I thought that all non-gameplay intensive Alicesoft titles were basically to pay for gameplay intensive Alicesoft titles, so singling out Hearful Maman seems odd.
>>184163764
Would ojou curls on Hornet work?
>>184164816
Hair is too long to pull off that hairstyle. Hornet should have hair like this at the very least
>>184165212
Drawing all her strands of hair in the back seems like a pain in the ass.
>>184071078
Does Alicesoft pay people to cosplay as characters to attract customers, because I find it kind of odd if people would cosplay as characters from games that haven't even come out.
>Krita isn't working right
>Photoshop is a resource hog of hogs
>sketchbook has a clunky interface
>Medibang has weird brush settings
>>184167451
I think professional cosplayers are a thing used for promotion.
>>184170148
Is the guy a vegetarian or something?
Does anyone have the screenshot of the choice to look at panties or commit a rance?
>>184171716
Pretty sure you can find it in 2 seconds by just googling Sengoku Rance.
>>184148692
On the actual birthday myself but feel free to start.
>>184170148
Just use SAI.
>>184162653
She's also not Hornet.
Alive
/vg/ is too fast in the middle of the night
>>184179595
>He hasn't begun his contribution to Shizuka's birthday yet
>>184189427
Neither have you. I'm waiting for the actual day to post.
>>184189483
Touché anon, touché.
I'll probably have to download Sai actually, nothing else is really working for me
or just have to go P&P but it won't look good at all without ctrl+z
KANAMI YOU INCOMPETENT FUCKS
>>184189483
Nothing from me until Sunday, probably, maybe. I dunno.
I wonder what the going rate of a ninja is
>>184196425
>>184196425
>no scene in IX
I'm still mad
Kichikuou Rance question, does the hospital improve the rate units recover during each turn?
>>184199114
Yes. Its also needed for a whole bunch of events.
>>184199170
Maybe I should have built that instead, I started a self challenge playthrough where I never use the recover troops option and I decided to build the girls military academy first because I wanted more units as soon as I could. Most of my best units are at half capacity and I'm actually debating whether or not to recklessly keep conquering everything it's great.
>>184199717
you should build them all.
>>184200993
One thing at a time, it's the next priority on my to build list.
>>184032716
How come the boy is more attractive than the girl
>>184201903

>>184148692
One drawing is already done.
The second is in progress.
>>184202191
Good work anon.
>>184122957
has the ixseal torrent been uploaded yet?
>>184173817
I did start mine, just looking forward for everyone elses.
>>184202191
Proud of you, anon!
Looks like Heartful Maman is next on Pink Pineapple's animationize list.
>>184209538
and still no Rance 2
>>184209640
Wait until Rance 002 and maybe they might make one.
Although, honestly, there is a large part that is relieved that there isn't going to be more bastardization going on.
>>184196972
Her CGs of her being really happy, then getting mad and sad are really cute.
>>183876290
Considering Kou's age, she's going to end up like a foot taller than the rest of them, right?
>>184210185
I don't see why she would. She's only two years younger than Sheila.
>>184210220
That just means that Sheila might outgrow the pack as well.
>>183876290
Do we know how tall Senhime is? I'm assuming she's at least as tall as Rance, if not taller.
>>184210317
I doubt she's going to grow much more
>>184210185
Why would she?
>>184210392
>Do we know how tall Senhime is?
No
>>184210392
>>184210538
>>184210392
170
Only girls Rance has fucked who are taller than him are Alkanese and K-K-Kamilla.
>>184210640
Kamilla can't move, so she would have this, but does Alkanese have a scene where she's riding Rance and she's like a foot and a half taller than him because Rance is below her?
>>184210719
No.
>>184210750
I guess Alicesoft must not think it's sexy if Rance is at like collarbone or breast level height when they're both got their backs parallel.
>>184210858
If your read the text of his KR scene with Kamilla his tits are his head height.
>>184210907
Oh, I haven't played KR, I didn't think Rance would have an H-scene with Kamilla. I was just thinking of the H-scene in Rance VI.
>>184210998
She is a hot enemy of course he would.
>>184211036
The only things I've heard about Kichikuou Kamilla in this thread was thatKayblis kills her when she tells him that she'll never love her and that Silky eats her blood soul.
>>184211153That only happens if Rance doesn't beat her first.
>>184211153
The thing about a game like Kichikuou is it's a game with many possibilities.
>>184211215
And no blogpost anon, it would seem.
>>184156328
No. It's from KR.
>>184211242
Well you can be the one.
>>184211242
I could blogpost about it if you want me to, I'm conveniently running a self imposed challenge run right now.
>>184211428
Is your self imposed challenge run a no death run?
>>184211428
Do it.
>>184211482
No replenishing units outside of the auto replenish gained each turn, it's basically forcing me to use my entire army since I can't just keep using my best over and over.
>>184211512
Well alright then right now I'm going to kill Lei, is there any real reason not to just use her as a hostage and kill this guy without a fight? that's just what I'm gonna do.
>>184211730
Do it.
I might try to make a color/uncolored version for the drawfag event, should I go with crayons or colored pencil?
>>184211730
>not just killing the lady for shits and giggles
You're not a true kichikuou.
>>184211775
pencil
>>184211759
I did it and all that's left is a crying old woman but who cares about that.
>>184211805
I'd rather keep my men alive, I kind of need them alive.
In other events I talk to maria, try to fuck the oversensitive Satella and conquer next door to the church that keeps stealing my money, soon I'll get that church to get back my donations with interest included.
And with Lei dead Seig is now in the picture, and with an act that should fool nobody steals chaos.I'm not sure how to blogpost this is my first time.
>>184212493
just post how you feel comfortable posting.
>>184212606
Well I guess I'll try that, anyways my plan is to get everything out of this AL church then raise it to the ground before it bleeds my pockets any further, in the meanwhile I guess I'll try and attack shangri-la a bit then take some other place for the turn, my army is finally recovering from the rebellion phase and I'm thinking the time to fight JAPAN is close.
Why has no one posted what Ixseal's gameplay is like?
One month later, I got shangri-la, now back to finally doing things, my army has almost recovered to the point of being useful.
Japan's end is coming, maybe, if I fight them and everyone's injured by the time I need to invade helman this might be hard.
>>184213993
because no torrent is out yet.
>>184214069
I'm listening to Phantom in preparation for JAPAN.
>>184209538
Was heartful Maman a shota incest story or a dude wanting to bang single mothers?
>>184214739
Heartful Maman's protag is college student age.
>>184214658
So after getting some free money it's time to take out the wall between safety and JAPAN.I hope I don't regret this.
>>184214810
So is that one Portugal Hero and 1199 civilians? I'm not sure the title and category match here.
>>184212978
Don't fight JAPAN until you get chaos.
>>184214939
I just remembered about that, shit.
>>184214939
Shouldn't he be able to fight them with Nikkou?
>>184215094
It's much easier with Miki and Kentarou.
Satella is shit and Meglass only deals 1 point of damage every other turn.
>>184215094
Well now I got my hands on chaos, just in time really.
>>184215550
I remember satella's magic being kind of useful against Nobunaga in the past, hope it's useful this time.
>>184214905
1 Portugal Hero and 1200 Civilians
Japan is taking a minor hold, there's a certain church that needs dealing with first.
>>184213993
My first playthrough was Kichiku, so I was wayyyy overpowered and didn't have to use any advanced strategies. (You can lose roughly 15 times and not have auto-game over, and that 15 times only counts against bosses, also the final boss lets you retry and boosts stats on loss, unlike Haruka)
Anyways, I'm on my second playthrough and you're greatly encouraged to use a variety of moves, and there are buffs but I'm too afraid to incorporate them into my strategy.
Like the demo, you get 3 different move sets, and it's kind of like Rance 5D where you don't quite get to pick what move you do (you can pick whether A, B, or C, but which slot in A/B/C is determined by turn modulo 5)
Each character has normal attacks, 100% accuracy attacks, pre-emptive strikes attacks, special attacks, elemental attacks, and upgraded elemental attacks.
It costs AP to get new moves, and AP is pretty scarce.
Ixseal's special attacks and upgraded elemental attacks hit all enemies, while Kyriel's hit one enemy 2-3 times (Kyriel is much better for bosses in this regard)
I would blogpost, but the screenshot feature only does bitmap, which I have to manually convert to png or jpg. Which is fucking stupid, it's 2017
>>184216674
The funniest thing is that the screenshot feature in IX and from memory Evenicle allows you to save in png or jpg.
Then for Rance 03 it went back to bitmap.
It's good that I have a very nice to defend against the Japanese from, the number of troops are pretty big and if they destroy my army I'm pretty fucked.
>>184216674
>>184216786
Could be a byproduct of being a title that has been development for a long time, leading it to still use an older engine or something.
>>184217578
Doubt it. Rance IX would have been in the works long before it.
>>184217578
>>184217668
It's weird how they leave out signs of System4 and whatnot.
It's also curious how there's no evidence of DLL files.
To save soul or keep the strain on my military low? fuck it I'll just retreat and wear them down through the mountains.
>>184210614
I guess Senhime is roughly 5'5".
>>184218657
5.57743
>>184218884
Is the number of inches some fraction I'm not aware of?
>>184218347
>wear them down through the mountains.
Isn't that worse?
>>184219860
I presume this
>>184219860
It's 170cm
And its Shizuka's birthday in Japan now.
>>184221745
>>184224531
Sweet.
Which game has the best gameplay? Hard Mode: excluding Sengoku Rance.
>>184226918
03, followed by IX
>>184226918
Vi or Magnum.
>>184226918
Sengoku Rance>implying i play hard mode
>>184227029
You really are scum...
>>184226918
I really like the gameplay in IX.5D wasn't the best gameplay but it was entertaining.
>>184227029
>>184226976
>>184226992
>>184227347
Doubtful, as Sengoku's gameplay is the only one discussed in depth around here.
>>184227605
Sometimes gameplay might not have much to discuss while still being fun.
>>184226918
Magnum had a better battle and customization system, but VI had bareable grinding and more fun dungeon crawling. I'd say VI was better gameplay wise by a tiny bit.
>>184227347
>>184226976
IX had fine gameplay, but it was Mamatoto with no kid related strategy.
>>184226918
>>184227029
Obviously SR.
Second best would be KR.
With 03 as third, and then this huge chasm before anything else comes.
Honestly it's a silly question because SR is the only one in the series with genuinely good gameplay, I play the others because of the characters and the story.
DESU I would read the shit out of rance books if they were around.
>>184226918
Mamatoto followed by Daibanchou. The Kids really make it a fun SRPG as it gave a lot of options for tactics.
http://mangagamer.org/announcements/
I think at least one Alicesoft related announcement in Otakon is likely because of the sheer number of announcements. It'll probably be Sengoku or maybe RQ, but don't get your hopes up too high.
>>184228242
Teleporting and bombing the shit out of the enemy was always fun.
>>184228961
>Sengoku
please no
>>184227605
Sengoku is the only one with a lot of behind the scenes priorities and chess-like strategies, so there's more to discuss. Many characters, many skills, and exploitability.
Most games don't have those kind of features.
03's damage and buff systems only comprise 3 functions or so, and AI is linear and rather transparent.
VI is literally just Support Shot.
5D has room to talk about strategies, but it's too much of a fuckfest for anybody to care. (Also, it's written in System3 I think which is illegible to the human eye.)
IX just turns into a Tolerance-fest on higher difficulties. I oversimplify here, but grinding optional missions makes brute forcing 99% of missions possible.
RQM has room to talk about, but on a per-mission basis it's clear what the good strategies are, and on a per-character basis there's obvious choices.
No game [of Rance series] so far excluding SR and KR(kind of) have the choices being permanent and having tangible effects throughout the rest of the game.
Outside of Rance, sure Mamatoto and Daibanchou have choices and whatnot, but I don't think Mamatoto has the interlocking parts of the SRPGs (I haven't played, yet), and Daibanchou, for how many options it gives you, pidgeonholes you into certain patterns in the National Stage(in the same way KR does.)
Also, Daibanchou choices tend to be picking between two characters, who tend to be pretty balanced anyways.
And it's too unforgiving.I'm just salty because I wanted to do Senna route, but I took out Idagawa first not knowing it locks me out of her route.
>>184228961
Would they announce another Alicesoft game before Evenicle is out?
>>184229070
but HD uncensored SR!
>>184229462
They already said they're not changing to HD like they did with VI ever again.
So its a game everyone has played 8 years ago.
>>184229413
Erh, I should clarify that I'm not saying that SR has the most fun gameplay, I'm just trying to put words as to why it's the most fun to nitpick.
>>184226976
^^This anon has good opinions on which are the most fun, which I'm going to equate with "best"
>>184229541
Oh did someone say that? Disappointing.
>>184229541
I'd pay like 30 bucks for SR without translation bugs and HD
>>184229413
Not sure what you mean about interlocking parts, but you should try Mamatoto, it's a pretty good SRPG.
Speaking of which, if there are any anons left that played Blade Briders, how was it? Seemed to be a pretty decent SRPG too, despite selling poorly.
>>184230118
And if it pushes Quest back yet another year?
>>184230228
Did you expect Quest anytime soon?
>>184230456
Should be next Rance game.
>>184230178
Arunaru said that it's mediocre so I don't think it's coming over.
>>184230178
It was quite fun.
>>184231980
I wasn't talking about a potential release, just wondering how it played. It was a new Alicesoft SRPG after quite a while (with IX basically being Mamatoto, so it didn't really count) and it even had a minor development aspect, if I remember correctly.
>>184232297
worth it.
>>184228961
I want Rance more, but Escalayer would be nice. Ixseal too, but if any game is too new, it would be that one. MG doesn't seem as gungho about Steam nowadays, so I'm not expecting Pastel Chime. Oyako Rankan or Tsumamigui 3 both seem plausible, just prepare for silly meme titles.
>>184232553
>Tsumamigui
Wifeater.
How come Rance's sprite has orange hair when his hair is brown...
>>184234521
Which sprite?
And here is my Shizuka.
Looking forward to what you hannies draw while I sleep.
>>184235963
Happy Birthday Shizuka
>>184229413
Senna's route, best route.
>>184235963
nice legs
>>184228961
Oh, I didn't know they announced the side story of Kyonyuu fantasy as a release. At least they're getting the profitable things listed off right away.
>>184235159
the one in brutal legend
>>184237124
Shizuka has nice legs.
>>184211242
This always gets me, we never seem to see any KR playthroughs posted. Isn't that game supposed to be just as replayable as SR?
>>184237494
Plot wise yeah but the gameplay doesn't have the same depth.
And wiki anon still hasn't played.
I bet my virginity that they'll announce SR, screencap this.
>>184237494
Old Rance wasn't too great character wise. He was much more childish and annoying than his modern incarnation.
>>184237747
Nice try, Anon, but you can't force losing it like this.
>>184237407
shit. That reminds me; I completely neglected my skin/color rendering training.
>>184237557
>And wiki anon still hasn't played.
I'll probably get IV done some time this year and then I'll be able to start it, although I genuinely worry about how many years of my life KR is going to take from me, particularly given how long I've been playing SR for.
>>184237860
Can someone post a CG of loli Nagi with shark teeth?
>>184239003
>>184235963
Nice.
You forgot to redraw the jewel on her hat though.
>>184139558
just download Locale Emulator and make it run with that. That's what I do.
>>184239275Thank you kind anon.
>>184238243
>not for sale
>>184243741
I'm assuming they meant not for resale, not that that ever stops anyone.
Do I reallly suck at evenicle or super-monsters are just absurdly strong? I could kill 3 or 4 of them and I'[m already at the end of the game. Drop is really shitty so. Do you get something special for clearing stronger ones?
>>184244897
You need to tactically use your skills.
>>184244897
Did you travel to dinosaur island yet? I'm pretty sure there should be more than 4 super monsters weaker than the regular fights there.
Can someone please post the not-CG art that's from 01 and 03? Like the character sprites and BG's Please
>>184244948
Even is I would use Kathryn's advance move, it still gets a shitton of time and resources to kill pne of them.
>>184245142
Please no.
>>184237860
Old Rance was at least iconic. The "Brutal Era" of Assholish.
>>184245152
RIP it from the game.
>>184245457
Calling it right now:
Mangagamer will announce Sengoku Rance at Otakon with a release coming 'shortly' (shortly meaning in 2-3 months). They will reveal that the last Secret Project was in fact SR this whole time. This is the 'historical bent game' they promised us. Aru has translated the entire game months ago.
Furthermore, this will not affect the Quest release which will be released either late 2018 or eraly 2019.
>>184245648
How the fuck did Aru translate it while finishing off Suki Suki and 90% translating Evenicle?
>>184245527
Dem Nepty Shizukafags
>>184245457
You think there's only one person that thinks Shizuka has great legs?
>>184245648
If there's any Rance game being announced at Otakon, it's Quest. Purely because it's >70% translated and Aru was busy with Evenicle.
I really doubt it though.
>>184246016
Aru works crazy fast. Also, Evenicle was practically confirmed to be obtained since at least february (the MG survey results). Knowing Aru, he can translate 90% of Evenicle in 6 months easy.
>>184251123
Obviously they want Quest, but Sengoku is too important a game to just skip. Especially since they want the lore right. They gotta do Sengoku Rance.
>>184251540
>Aru works crazy fast.
Yeah. Evenicle is very long.
What if MG trolls everyone and gets 01 out before SR or Quest?
>>184253838
I want to bully Hazuki
>>184253838
MG wants your money, they don't do it for the lulz
>>183730395
The pastebin's link to Rance 5D says that there are known issues with that particular torrent, but doesn't explain what it is. What's up with it?
>>184254915
I think it doesn't save.
>>184251540
Unless they got a third translator working on it, I think the schedule is pretty full. I would find it entertaining if MangaGamer needed to get a third translator involved so they could get Sengoku Rance, Rance Quest and Evenicle all being worked on simultaneously. I somewhat doubt that Alicesoft has that much influence over MangaGamer's bottom line after such a short period of time.
>>184257463
Who says Quest is being worked on?
>>184257563
Good point. I've got no idea what titles Maria has been working on since 2015.
So, are you guys looking forward to Evenicle?
>>184257796
I don't remember that in Evenicle
>>184257796
Yup. It'll be the first Alicesoft game I've played with a character with a Senhime build since S!T!B!
>>184257904
I was wondering how long it would take the thread to notice that it's not from Evenicle.
Not even 2 minutes, faster than expected.
Well done, /haniho/
>>184258178
I thought it was just a random picture. I haven't gone diving through the CG set of Evenicle, so the only thing I know about the characters are from what people have said here and the English opening that has barely any text.
>>184257796
If Rance VI and Rance Quest has taught me anything, it's that I'll believe it when I see it released. It can get delayed, shelved, etc... until it's actually released.
Are the SAT bonuses for Maeda and Akechi worth it? Or should those be ignored for other bonuses?
>>184259184
>Maeda
Pretty good stats for a footsoldier, might be worth a consideration.
>Akechi
Only way to get Garcia, but totally not worth it except for completionism.
>>184257796
I played enough Alicesoft games to know how cows look like, you can't fool me.
>>184260008
It seems that Alicesoft kind of gave up on improving their 3D art. Well, whatever allows my old ass computer to run the game, I guess.
>>184260251
God bless eroge companies making games that work on my 10 year old laptop with 2gb ram
>>184260251
The art in Rance IX actually looks better than the art in Rance Quest to me, if only marginally.

Just so that you know, 2D.G.F./mikocon has been reselling the game for several days already. That's right, reselling pirated game for real money.
>>184261165
>mikocon has been reselling the game
seriously? I know they do the stupid thing where you have to sign up for their site and have so many e-peen points to download or whatever, but they're actually selling games now?
>>184260890
>>184260760
>(((Their))) Nyaa
>>184260251
Thats only medium setting.
Here are cows on max graphics in their full glory.
>>184260890
It's not all of us. At least me and one or two other people here can't read Japanese, so why would we pirate it if we'd get the same thing from looking at a CG set online? It's not like Shade composed the music for the game or anything.

Autism awareness version

>>184261756
I had to compare them side by side to see that their edges aren't jagged in the max resolution setting.
>>184261525

>>184262256
Right, that's what I mean, VIP section. So it's not reselling the game, it's more like a subscription for free game downloads.
Still illegal as fuck though, I wonder if there's a way to report them.
>>184261165
I've never heard of them. Is that a company I should be aware of?
>>184262369
>a paid subscription for free game downloads
You're contradiction yourself right there.
Let me guess, an Xbox Gold/PS Plus subscriber?
>>184262523
No. Stay calm and keep buying then.
>>184261756
Well, at least they seemed to have put some time in creating Asterisk's 3D model.
>>184257796
What game is that character from?
>>184266997
I assume is related to Senran Kagura.
>>183777660
What scene is this taken from?
>>183779451
Wrong princess.
after conquering the human world, what to attack first, kayblis or hornet's faction?
>>184269723
Common sense says Hornet.
>>184269935
The way the picture was cropped made it look like Sill was younger or had a hair cut.
Ixseal is out
https://sukebei.nyaa.si/view/2332124
>>183768207
Why is she laying down in a puddle of water like four inches tall?
>>184271053
You're late.
>>183790175
>That file name
His plan could have worked IF he had a smoke bomb or something to blind Elenor Ran and IF he had training in fighting just by sound. My guess is that he had neither.
>>183830738
I think best single mother would be more appropriate. She didn't exactly have a flexible personality which would make her good at compromise.
>>184260008
>>183883251
You're kidding, right? I could probably lift one Lia with each arm at her being just over 100 pounds.
>>184257796
I'll pirate it because I wanted Rance instead.
>>184271710
How long did that take you to edit in?
>>184271850
You really should ignore the weights of the girls in eroge, if you were going to apply realism to them a large majority of them would be unhealthly underweight
>>184271991
I didn't edit anything, there is a time stamp on the picture
>>184257796
I'll torrent it on day one or whenever it gets uploaded. If I like it and it gets a Steam version with uncensor patch, I'll buy that one because I can't afford first world prices and unlike MG, Gaben knows it.
No uncensor or no Steam version at all, no buy.
>>184271710
Those are fish
>>184272984
Obviously
>>184272984
The world of Evenicle must not have devils because I'm fairly sure that devils are the fish of the continent considering they always wear swim gear.
>>184220287
Better than taking them on head on which I eventually will have to do, In other news Milli died because I never got around to building a hospital in time.
Whoops.
>>184273978
Isn't there a hospital just outside the castle? I didn't think she lived in the castle itself.
>>184272060
I saw that some of the other girls in that line up weighed less than 90 lbs. I have a hard time imagining that's possible unless they are less than four foot six inches tall.
>>184273978
Was Milli's unhappy ending dying of the illness or through Medusa?
>>184274126
Yeah they mention a hospital being right outside when it's being built, don't know what's so terrible about that one.
>Kyriel defeated scene, the confession scene
>She said her first love is her neighbor Takamaru
Is it the same Takamaru as in Haruka?
In other news I just barely did the amount of damage needed to kill Nobunaga.
>>184275143
Has Isoroku offered to have Rance's child yet? I haven't played KR, so I have no idea when that happens.
>>184275336
I just talked to her for the first time and now I can make babies, straight to point it is.
>>184275143
I remember during my first playthrough being pretty cautious in trying to conquer JAPAN due to how my first expedition ended up.
>>184275492
Isoroku confirmed for X when
>>184275629
I understand Nobunaga hits hard, you need magic or your best units to soften his army up and after that you need to actually kill him.
>>184275629
Not him, but confirmed for Rance 10, megaman or professor Xavier? Either way I'm confused at that leap in logic.
>>184275492
So is she under contractual obligations to have children with the first person to conquer JAPAN or is she just trying to get strong leadership genes in her family line in Kichikuou Rance?
>>184275752
Actually, I'm talking abouthow you get a game over when he sends Shinobu to kill you.
>>184275950
She's trying to restore the name of her family which the reputation of them is in tatters for some reason, something about her father being a coward. the kid will also be made the ruler of JAPAN.
>>184275950
Like in Sengoku she wants to revive the yamamoto clan and Rance promises that their son will be the ruler of JAPAN.
>>184276164
Is her father still alive? It'd be fun if his punishment for being a coward was having to assist with raising the ruler of JAPAN, all the while having no power himself. I'm assuming that in Kichikuou Rance, the ruler of JAPAN doesn't have emperor powers like in Kenshin's route in Sengoku Rance.
>>184276395
She mentions his grave a few times so no, he's long gone.
>>184276710
Out of curiosity, in Japanese history, if you were forced to commit Seppuku or else they'd kill your entire family, if you did commit Seppuku, would your family's reputation and status be affected or would it be spared?
AGTH code for Ixseal please ?
>>184272060
I have trouble suspending my disbelief at underwater cows. That's either your fault or Alicesoft's fault.
>>184277190
I'd love me one as well. I'm already annoyed by the incompatible save data from the trial.
>>184276987
Odd question out of the blue but I imagine it goes case by case.
>>184276987
My superficial knowledge of Japan culture through manga and eroges tells me that you commit seppuku so that you die a honorable death and your family isn´t affected by it.
>>184277579
They're fish
>>184278242
I wonder if they have four lungs set up serially in order to absorb the oxygen in the water.
I just noticed that we're almost at 750 posts. Good luck whoever is going to make the Shizuka's birthday OP.
Since the STEM thread is nearing its end, I have a question for Rance Quest.When Satella asks Rance for assistance with catching bugs to stop Pi-R's satellites. How do they use them? Does team Hornet have a technologically savvy individual who knows where they need to place them to affect them, are they going to throw them at the sky hoping they reach a satellite or am I missing something?
>>184279490
It seems it didn't take them long to make one for Ixseal. Did they also make a figurine for the red one?
>>184279908
It was already planned before release
Will this do for the next OP picture?
>>184280708
Let's just use the usual Shizuka birthday thread picture
>>184280708
Nah, just use a good Shizuka pic. Bonus points if it showcases her legs.

It's close, but I think ff7 has better graphics.
