/jp/ - Otaku Culture

mine just shipped

OH GOD Krusche is hot

Jack looks pretty badass, too.

AT3?

>>4230320

Yes.

Is it out yet?

Fucking /v/ shit.

At least keep it in one thread.

>>4230330
COCONAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa

>>4230330
Go away ZUN; why don't you try to laughably argue that this shit is /jp/ like you did on the ghostboard.

>>4230323
Guess I'll have to rely on niconico replay videos as I'm not getting a PS3 and the chances for a working PS3 emulator are more than laughable.

sauce op?

>>4230351

Sengoku Tonelico 3

Hey, why don't you guys learn to at least condense your off-topic threads?

speaking of AT where the hell are my Mir doujinshi scans!?
I cant take it easy like this!

>>4230368

Hello, this is your OP speaking.

This is an Ar Tonelico thread. After searching all 10 pages of /jp/ TWICE I didn't find a SINGLE thread dedicated to this game, so I made one.

>>4230383

I hope your banning marks the beginning of /dg/

Oh, it comes out tomorrow. I hope someone rips those soundtracks.

>>4230183
I had her in my party for the free heals. Just for that.

>>4230383
You didn't find a thread here because they all belong in /v/.

>>4230395
>>>/t/378561

Technical question:
Cloche is the only one that can use Replekia or it's available for all the IPDs?

>>4230388
>I have no argument to cover my mistake so to save face I'm going to bawwwww

Why must you continue to post /v/ material in /jp/?

>>4230395
COCONAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>>4230383
This is no different that any other JRPG thread posted here.

How is AT not /jp/ related? It's practically an eroge, just without the ero.

>>4230411
Why must you continue to troll?

>>4230388
And this thread getting ignored by mods will maintain the age of asspain for you.

Cry me some more.

>>4230404

Thread is now awesome. All we need now is the regular OST.

>>4230415

Have you ever played it? You wouldn't be saying that if you have.

>>4230417
It is a videogame released for a major console that heavily focuses on RPG elements, uses gimmicks for storytelling and having been localized by a major RPG company.

>>4230388

As the one who wrote that email, I intentionally picked Doujin/VN so that fringe stuff like AT could fit in.

While it's unlikely for /dg/ to actually happen, if it does, I look forward to this debate continuing for eternity.

>>4230428

>>4230435

>>4230437
...that obviously makes it so that AT wouldn't fit in, since it is neither doujin nor VN (and ZUN, don't you dare source vndb since there's no basis in that and is the equal of Wikipedia).

>>4230435
>Baaaaaaww, if a game is too popular or is from a mainstream console, it doesn't belong in /jp/.

Your reasoning still as asinine as always, I am not having this discussion again with you.

>>4230435
I started playing Ar Tonelico because of the threads on /jp/. Shit's like a eroge with H-scenes removed and some RPG elements. I challenge you to play it in front of your family and friends.

>>4230458

VN is a blanket term these days for galge, sound novels, ADV, eroge, and such.

AT is galge, by it's director's own words.

For eternity anonymous. Eternity.

If you have a problem with something, is it that hard to hide the thread? really?

>>4230462
Nice ad hominid.

>>4230469
And...? How does that make it /jp/?

>>4230471
VN is a genre, not a term.

>>4230474
>Nice ad hominid.
Is that some new primate?

>>4230472
Hiding only causes more problems later on.

>>4230482
VN is a medium.
And a term.
How can a word not be a term?

>>4230482

Ah, if only de jure and de facto always matched up.

>>4230474

Ok and how is Rance /jp/? Utawarerumono? Tears to Tiara? Touhou? Idolm@ster?

These are all video games. Is it because they don't have official english translations? That's fucking stupid, and with that logic, AT3 is /jp/ related since it doesn't have one yet.

>>4230513
Those games were the reasoning behind the creation of /jp/.

A game series that could be posted in /v/ without trouble, is not.

>>4230523

But you CAN'T post AT in /v/ without trouble, let alone any jRPG without getting trolled.

>>4230523
>posted in /v/ without trouble
>Ar Tonelico
Haha, good one.
Your definition of /jp/-related is more bullshit than the Miller test.

/jp/ - Self moderation permanent assembly/Japan

>>4230532
...And despite multiple saying otherwise and how AT and other JRPG threads with hundreds of posts with little-to-none trolling, you continue to say that still.

Nice job ignoring facts.

Just ignore the samefag troll, he will get bored and go away.

>>4230183
Krusche returned?!? DAMN! GOTY!

can't you people just ignore the trolls, explaining will do nothing
donotfeedthetrolls.jpg

Trolls are just mad because Ar Tonelico, Rance, Touhou, etc. are more popular than their shitty moonland-only VNs.

>>4230547
>>4230550
Yet, you guys are the "trolls" and purposely make thread that would cause disruption.

Also, stop using such a cop-out argument.

>>4230560

You're the ones causing disruption. We would've had a nice, peaceful thread if you fags didn't come in here all "herp derp not /jp/ related XD"

>>4230560
The only one being disrupted here is you.

>>4230576
Not so.

>>4230578
Again, not so.

let us us discuss how Mir's cuteness is a miracle of the universe

>>4230593

Actually, yes. If you just IGNORED the thread or HID it, we wouldn't be having this discussion. But no, you decide to pretend you actually have authority on this board when you don't.

Nice job not backing up your argument, by the way.

>>4230600

I prefer shurelia.

>>4230602
No one has authority since no one cares about this place, so it's an Anarchy in that the users need to decide the rules.

>>4230611

Well, that doesn't work when only one or two people decide they aren't ok with something when another 100 or so are.

Shurelia Sunday already passed. I think I prefer Mir today.

But then again, there's a new tower admin in AT3.

>>4230619
I can easily same the same that only one or two people (and ZUN) are actually for it, while everyone else is not.

>>4230643

But.. I want everyday to be Shurelia sunday. ;_;

>>4230663
I miss Caturday. ;_;

>>4230651
Yes, you could, but you'd be wrong.

I had completely forgot that it's getting released soon. Now I'll have to shield myself from spoilers for the next year, heh.

Also, what's with the goddamn 'Hurr this doesn't belong in /jp/" trite? We've been having AT threads for a while now, and a new thread is only ever made once the old one dies. If you had played the game, you'd find out it has as much VN elements as Rance or Utawarerumono; minus the porn.

How about you hide the fucking thread?

>>4230686
At least he can bring up more basis behind his argument.

>>4230691
How about you actually read the fucking threads?

>>4230697
What argument?
I'm sorry but as everyone is Anonymous, it is impossible to identify which posts are whose without making assumptions.

I would like this threads more if it wasn't obvious that most of you are /v/ faggots that got trolled there.
Doesn't helps that the firsts AT threads "that have a long time around" were daily doses.

>>4230697
Nice use of third person to make it seem like there's more of you.

>>4230689

I can't wait to see her without her hat.

I don't care about this either way, but I decided to make an AT thread in /v/.

>>>/v/47795846

Turns out that they're actually discussing the series with no trolls, no one telling them to go back to /jp/, or no one trying to derail the thread. Comparing it to /jp/'s AT threads, it seems /v/ actually is the better place.

So, I guess all of you are going to ignore >>4230800 and continue to say that /v/ hates AT.

>>4230800
>>>/v/47795846
I made that thread and expected it to be drowned out by WEEABOOS and PS3 SUX, but this is actually a freak occurrence for /v/

>>4230891
Considering that it's prime time for 4chan, I doubt it can be a fluke.

>>4230891

But I hate /v/...

>>4230901
...but it doesn't hate you.

>>4230907
Not so sure about that.

It's just, I wouldn't expect most of /v/ to even enjoy AT, much less understand things like moe and typical anime/manga archetypes. I hate explaining...

>>4230901
>>4230901
I hate /a/ but you don't see me posting animu and mango here.

>>4230919
People seem to be using moe and waifu properly in that thread.

>>4230689
>>4230779
>>I can't wait to see her without her hat.

I hope she's playable. But I guess we'll find out in a day. The Japanese game otaku will probably marathon this game in a day or two without sleeping.

>>4230949

Mmm. Bike shorts.

>>4230949
maybe we'll finally find out if Croix ends up with Mir or not

>>4230949
>>4230954
>>4230956
How about taking this to /v/?

>>4230956

Who did the first AT protagonist end up with in canon?

>>4230962
Nice job continuing to shovel your shit here.

>>4230962
all of them supposedly

>>4230962
with his hand.

>>4230965
>>4230967
Beside this can ONLY go on /v/.

Now stop taking to yourself and I'll do the same.

>>4230663

sauce?

>>4230981
/v/.

Bike shorts are good, but I also like no shorts.

>>4230984

XD

>>4230988
Belongs in /v/, so take it there.

You can't support this shit being here, so you're nothing more than on the same level as Dawson or KoG.

Shurelia and Mir are the embodiments of /jp/ because they both play eroge in their spare time and are forever the little girl

>>4230959
>>4230973
>>4230984
>>4230997
>PLEASE, PAY ATTENTION TO ME!

Fine, I see you, damn. Now stop whining.

>>4230999
Stop with this shit here.

/v/ garbage.

Take this garbage to /v/ already.

Please, stop making these threads here.

KENKA HA YAMETE!!!

For fucks sake STOP SAYING IT SHOULD GO TO /V/, NO ONE LISTENS.

>>4230956
It will prolly be open-ended or 'all of them', like Lyner.

I still don't get why you must make this shit here, and not /v/.

for those that like the AT world you should really read this wiki
http://artonelico.wikia.com/wiki/Wave_Theory

>>4231024

Because seeing you so pissed off provides entertainment.

>>4231024
It's our cultural exchange for the Rance and YMK threads they make.
Now blow it out of your ass.

>>4231030
Bullshit, you just like trolling /jp/ with this.

>>4231026
Too complicated.
Enjoy some Cocona.

>>4231033

If they are it seems to be working, going by your reactions the past quarter of the thread.

>>4231037
Nice maturity there.

>>4231033
Well, go to /v/ and tell them top stop making Rance and VN threads and never start one EVER.
Then go to /a/ and tell them to stop any VN threads and Type Moon threads and never start one either.
Then, we will abide by what you consider is acceptable.

>>4231046
What does that have to do with anything?

So who is the third revytiel? Anyone know yet, or who her personalities are?

>>4231022
but that can't be possible due to the fact in Mir's ending Croix leaves with Mir which greatly affects Mir's character and in the other endings he stays with Luca and Cloche

ZUN and friends, stop acting like fucking idiots.

>>4231026
>>Ar Tonelico Wave Theory

I love this so much. Better than /sci/.

>>4231061
Go back to /v/ already.

>>4231054
It has to do with the fact that AT is /jp/ related, and the fact that sometimes there are crossboard topics since they either apply well for both or just happened to be troll free once in a while.
So, let's see you pushing board purity in the boards of 4chan. You, alone with you pained bottom.

So apparently the original idea for Ar tonelico was from a tabletop rpg setting.

Would you play it, Anonymous?

Holy shit, 光の中に is fucking awesome.

This is why we can't have nice things here. You guys can do whatever, I'll be fapping to the the Hymmnos Concerts. Hell, I'm already doing so.

>>4231065
...If not for the fact that it is COMPLETELY OBVIOUS that AT is /v/.

You guys can't even argue that it much more so belongs here than /v/.

I just can't get myself to finish 2... I'm somewhere around beginning where Cocona gets IPD, but there's really nothing motivating me to keep playing it, not even Mir.

>>4230406
bump for this

/v/ thread is dying, I tried to bump it twice and nothing happened.

Come on guys, breathe some life into it, if only because there we wouldn't have to listen to some guy's incessant whining.

>>4231083
>>4231089
Take it to /v/.

Goddamned kids.

>>4231080
Galge.RPG.
Like Men At Work, Word's Worth, Rance or what have you. Lacks only porn. SO fuck you.

>>4231097
Please do.

And continue to make your AT and JRPGs there too.

>>4231099

Lol, no one is gonna listen to you. Give up.

Ar Tonelico is a Japanese game which will only appeal to the weeabooist of weeaboos. I'd say it belongs here. Also, as our rules say

All things Japanese welcome!

>>4231089
http://artonelico.wikia.com/wiki/Hymmnos_(Hymns)
Replekia = METHOD_REPLEKIA/
Though its unknown the date of its crafting, it can be traced to around 400 years ago, when Infel Phira was finished. Its effects are the unification of the hearts of all the IPD Reyvateils, using all of them as an amplifier for the casting of a Song Magic, improving greatly its power. This Hymn can be used only by the Maiden of Mio(JP)/Aqua(US).

>>4231099

Said whiner beautifully demonstrates my point. As he continues to do so this last quarter of the thread. It used to be funny, now it's fucking pathetic how much he's letting this pain his rear.

>>4231102
Again, wrong.

Gimmicks do not make it a completely different genre.

>>4231026
Holy fucking shit. So it wasn't pure random bullshit?
And pseudo-science kind of bullshit? My favorite!

>>4231099
Would you like some cheese with your whine?

>>4231112
Gimmick give it a sub-genre classification.

>>4231107
Then go to /v/ then.

>>4231106
Fuck. I wanted Cocona to use it in AT3.

>>4231119
Take it to /v/.

Trolls trolling trolls trolling no one

>>4231080
>You guys can't even argue that it much more so belongs here than /v/.
You're the one who keeps hiding behind a "but it belongs in /v/!" shield to avoid any actual argument.

just ignore the troll people

and for the fuckers complaining just hide the thread, problem solved

>>4231113
The AT world is pretty well fleshed out, thought not necessarily so much in the games. There's quite a bit of world building and background in the supplemental materials relating to the logic behind the world's science.

At least we figured out that this is all the work of one Anon. He even just linked this thread in the ghost board.

>>4231056
Probably >>4230689 Tilia.

>>4231130
Wasn't me.

Besides, why do you continue to ignore any fact and post this shit on /jp/?

It's a shame I have no idea how to implement the hymmnos font on /jp/

>>4231140

Because it's not fact, it's opinion.

Do you guys think AT3will be like AT1 aka doing all the Cosmospheres regardless, like AT2 where you have to choose or maybe something new, like choosing and going through friendzone spheres or something?

>>4231147
Where's the opinion?

They're even proof that it's fine in /v/.

>>4231143
Is there a hymnos chart?

>>4231152
Plot twist:
You were diving all along.

>>4231026
>>4231113
>>4231129

Post the theory stuff in /v/! No, really, post it in /v/, I'm not the same faggot crying all over this thread. I'd love to see the /v/irgins discuss this. But watch the whiner point to my post and jump up and down in joy as if he found a bro when I really think his constant whining is retarded and (now) unfunny.

>>4231157
>>4231159
>>4231152
Take it to /v/.

>>4231155
TM VN threads are fine in /a/ too.
Does not mean they are /a/ related.

EXEC_EP=NOVA is fucking awesome

Oh look, the /v/ thread is dead.

>>4231169
/v/ thread.

How long do you think It will be before 3 gets released overseas?

>>4231173
Discuss it in /v/.

>>4231173

After the whole AT2 cockup and shit sales, I doubt NISA will want to bother.

So never.

>play cosmoflips
>genuflect

>>4231177
Good, it'll be nice for it not to tun into Persona.

>>4231173
given NISA's speed probably not until early next year

>>4231171

Was just about to say that.

Meanwhile this one remains alive, albeit partly because of the crybaby.

>>4231183
?

>>4231185
I only post because you kids continue to post.

>>4231177
are you kidding me?
this is THE most otaku/neet centered game on the ps3 that can ever hope to be licensed by NISA

How do you take screenshots on ps3?

>>4231193

It's not like you like AT or anything, right?

>>4231198
Wrong; having it on the PS3 removes anything "otaku/neet" about it; the only people that care about this are the Persona kiddies.

>>4231193
I like how you keep bumping the thread, making it more likely that these "kids" will see the tread and therefore reply to it.
Good job keeping up /jp/'s quality by showing these kids their place instead of wasting your time discussing things that you like and consider /jp/-related. You are truly /jp/'s saviour.

>>4231205
/jp/ is a terrible place and /jp/ hates all I discuss.

I should stop coming here, but then I'll have no place else to go.

EXEC_COSMOFLIPS/. is mysterious and graceful, a quality I hope is reflected in its Reyvateil performer. There're too many -dere and moe archetypes among the female leads. I was sorely disappointed in AT1 when Shurelia reverted to moe-moe halfway through the game to pander to that specific demographic.

On a related note, KOKIA is really the only new performer of note. All the other new singers are really forgettable.

>>4231212
Take it to /v/.

Wow, this new hymmnos concerts soundtrack is pretty good.

>>4231209
/jp/ hates all I discuss.
Then that surely makes you the problem.

>I should stop coming here
Please do.

>>4231209
What do you discuss?

>>4231216
Go the /v/ with it.

I feel tempted to download the new hymmnos songs but I feel like it would spoil my experience if I didn't hear them for the first time in-game

>>4231209
>/jp/ hates all I discuss.
I'm pretty sure that makes you the problem then.

>I should stop coming here
Please do.

>>4231212
This. Kokia is awesome.

>>4231219
Stuff that usually gets the same treatment that I do to you all.

...which is so very ironic.

>>4231227
Don't dodge the question.

>>4231221
yea i thought the same too but i couldn't resist, good luck to you

If you want it taken to /v/ go make a thread for it there and link it here. Yes, another thread there.

>>4231231
Do your own damn work.

You're the ones that want an AT thread.

This thread isn't taking it easy.

I wonder if there will be and extra cosmoshpere with the previous AT heroines

>>4231244
I want to take it easy and I want the AT guys to take it easy.

Just not here though.

>>4231250

how about EXEC_EP=NOVA/.

this thread reminds me that the earlier GUST games will never get a translation

>>4231297
/v/

>>4231315

From now on all games except Touhou go in /v/. /jp/ is for Japan General and Touhou only.

>>4231355
ok

some1 butthurt

>>4231406
/v/

I've always understood it that VNs, eroge, doujin, and Japanese games with no English localisation go in /jp/, while all the other shit goes in /v/.

>>4231416
They can all go in /v/ we don't want you here anymore.

>>4231355
Ar tonelico has been /jp/ since the board started, you buttmad samefagging troll.

By that logic Umineko and shit would be /v/ material too.

>>4231422
It has not.

>>4231355
>>4231396
>>4231413
>>4231416
>>4231419
Samefagging much?

I wish the Toukouspheres would get a translation

>>4231422
Take is all to /v/ faggot. We don't want you here. You are all bitching about how you don't want to be here. The solution is simple go back to /v/ and shut the fuck up.

>>4231436
...Nobody said we do not want to be here.
The samefag who says 'go back to /v/' is
>>4231209

>>4231429
You're missing a bunch; he was basically every other post in the whole thread so far.

>>4231436
In no way do you, sir, represent the entirety of /jp/ -- hell, you with your samefaggotry are probably the only anon on this entire board who thinks such a thing.
The Ar tonelico series embraces VN-esque aspects and plot elements, making it perfeclty viable for being discussed here even if you leave out all the other things that make it related; if you want to talk about nothing but Touhou then stop acting like such a high-and-mighty shit and haul your mediocre troll ass to Pooshlmer. We don't want YOU here.

>>4231440
You are all bitching about how you want a /dg/ and how the rest of us need to GTFO is you don't get your way. You got a //dg/ its called /v/ you can all go there.

>>4231267
EXEC_EP=NOVA/. is sung by Shikata Akiko who is mainstay of the series since its inception and also has a hand to play in composing some of the hymmnos pieces as well. She is in my opinion the best of the original four singers for the series.

KOKIA is the best singer among the new artists, of which there are a bunch; and in my opinion she has a better voice than Shikata Akiko.

/jp/ is for meta threads. Every other theme should be banned, even Touhou.
