Great art and nice music as always. The overall atmosphere was quite good. It had some 'mystery' solving elements in it which were kind of silly but could lead to bad ends. Sometimes it felt a little pretentious by quoting lines from books like Nostromo, which I didn't feel were all that relevant to the story itself.

Basically it's the slice-of-life bits of Yukari and friends in Kara no Shoujo 2 with the yuri dialed up to 11, or Maria-sama meets Hyouka. If you are into that kind of thing then you will probably enjoy it.

Didn't Innocent Grey say that they are doing 4 FLOWERS games in total anyway? This one was for spring, the other three for the other seasons.

Are you one of those who think if a game is translated it became shit? Or that gets pissed because the writer uses the format of his history to mislead the reader?

Anyway compare g-senjou with the fucking average game you get every fucking month that have a good average, like pic related, do you seriously think that g-senjou is that low when compared to those titles?

Either way you should read more titles before coming here to sprout such bullshit such as I don't like this titles, why is so popular.

There was no misleading the reader, misleading the reader means the reader shouldn't keep believing what the writer is saying because the other option is completely evident and directly refuted in the routes that aren't the main one.

I thought my short statement would suffice and you could think of the rest yourself, but apparently I overestimated you.

See, the Latin alphabet does not have uniform, translingual spelling rules. So when you try to transliterate something as comparatively rigid as katakana, there will always be many ways to go on about this, each influenced by the language using the Latin alphabet of your choice. English and French in particular have some very peculiar spelling rules.

Now, Eushully frequently makes use of terms of French, German, or other Indogermanic origin, not exclusively English. If you take then a name like シュリ, which certainly does not correspond with the sound value of the name Sully in English, you also have to consider other European languages in regard in light of the information I mentioned in the previous sentence. The example I posted proves that there is in fact a relation between シュリ and Sully in French, so having thus the choice between a perfectably sensible name like Sully, and a complete and utter nonsense term like "Shuri", which could only ever be the result of an unreflecting slavish dedication to an accurate transcription of a foreign tongue word, said choice should fall rather easy. And I really do not believe that one of the more well known fin de siècle writers proves for an obscure reference, not that I am holding much literary expectations in these circles here.

It's not any "male name", it was a nickname. And are you really going to tell me giving her a Japanese name was their intention? Do you not know her surname? She is clearly supposed to be a "foreigner", from a Japanese POV.

I agree with him. It's the same reason "main girls" are often so uninteresting, they're made to appeal to the largest possible audience. Other characters have the freedom to be interesting.

It's mostly about what the audience expects. They're too used to some things to accept new ones, and if the game doesn't sell it doesn't matter. Interesting characters can be written after that.

That post is split in two parts for a reason, genius. Also, main girl=/=heroine with a route. Two different things. One is *the* main girl, the others are, well, the heroines with routes in general.

I solved this problem. Characters with no routes are interesting because they have interesting personalities and they have no routes because its extremely hard for writer to come up with route for them. In other words, such characters have interesting 'front' but nothing beyond that because of realization trouble.

This problem is not related to characters only. They have the same issue with jokes or even plot happenings. Just try to remember any fun moment from the game. Characters start acting up and when fun goes to the peak the scene is abruptly terminated as if nothing had happened. See? "Hard to follow up" problem. It is very easy to put up interesting front but actually realizing it fully is extremely hard. And there is no point even trying because leaving to reader's imagination work like hook of empty expectations.

You guys were right about Valefor being fucking broken. I stopped using her after she made me get 12 防回 stones from a single battle, which would pretty much double what Celica currently had.

There should be a "no abuse of spoiler tags" for all of /jp/.

No, I don't give a fuck if people use spoilers outside of threads where spoilers aren't pertinent, and I'm pretty sure 99% of the whole site doesn't, either.

The spoiler tag was created for a reason, and if you support newfags misusing it you will be grouped with them.

Comedy and what people find funny is heavily influenced by culture. Just like how the japanese think アメリカン・ジョーク are terrible, most westerners think boke/tsukkomi are terrible too. Once you get used to their culture you will find their jokes funny as well.

Finished Magical Charming.
For those wondering if they should try it out, I'd suggest not playing the game *solely* for the True route and expecting to be completely blown away by it or something. It's no Princess Witches or even Twinkle Crusaders when it comes to amount of plot and tweests, but if you're looking for kilotons of sugary ichaicha and you happen to like the heroines (especially Orietta is pure love) then I'd give my recommendations. As for humor, I'd say it was your "regular moege" level and I only cracked out to few lines. Overall an okay ride.

True route grumble:
Having to collect familiar cards for Sharon fight and expecting the player to remember the magic type power levels / rarity multipliers / Hebrew numbers by heart against Mary when they're only mentioned once in the entire damn game were total bullshit. I'd imagine many people giving up if not for walkthroughs since especially for the former you're not even told where to look, or why you failed in the first place if you have no familiars at all.

Also I was actually expecting a super tragic end or something since the "special ending song" name was so ominously sad, but apparently it was for some specific bad ends that I didn't encounter, not the true end. Not sure if I should be disappointed or happy about it though.

It's much easier to find titles known to be harder, than the opposite. Throwing everything that isn't WA2 on the "easy" folder shouldn't make that much of a difference. And even then, I guess I've heard people saying it's easy before? I do believe it's harder than your common moege, though.

As expected of Kinugasa, master of delays and shitty endings.

This reminds me, I was planning on giving his light novels a try. Might be interesting to see if he can end it better than his eroge endings.
