Aniplex put out some promo video officially announcing their brand, just the same two titles they already announced though.

[Anonymous No.]

>>23054104
The first title feels like another cash grab just like Coroblo was, but with SCA-Ji's name slapped on it as the art director and all ages only this time. I'm more surprised that Frontwing/Makura didn't run a kickstarter like usual, I guess Aniplex is paying for it.

[Anonymous No.]

Yeah, its not like partials are indicative of progress which is literally this thread. They also DEFINITELY don't have a progress table detailing how far along they are or anything.
>And for those who do cares about partials, there is other Mahoyo partials.
And im sure those people would willingly take 7 gold coins over 8 of them. That is, if they were as retarded as you to not realize this is the furthest a Mahoyo translation has gotten and has the most progress.

It probably won't help much outside of Japan, but it does give domestic sales a decent let up over comparable titles.
Although honestly for Aniplex this is probably more about rolling the dice on franchise creation than the success or failure of any particular title. There is still plenty of talent in the VN industry and titles are comparatively cheap to make, and one success coming from the label that can be turned into a multi-media franchise would pay for quite a few disappointments.

Didn't yuzusoft allow them to use the mosaic free versions of their games but they didn't like the look of the uncensored art so they kept the mosaics? I also remember them lying about it and saying that there was nothing drawn under them in the first place.

[Anonymous No.]

>>23066455
In their defense, what's drawn underneath is extremely simple and applying mosaics and then coloring some of the mosaics causes them to look more like genitals than the actual uncensored drawing itself. I do think they should still offer a separate patch to remove mosaics though, even if they have to make abundantly clear that the genitals look bad. Forcing customers to use a censored product regardless of how itty bitty the censorship is, is a really disgusting thing to do in the art medium.

Still legally classified as art and protected as such in the US for 99% of VN's which is where most VN publishing companies are based. It being the same as the japanese release doesn't mean it's not censored since we're just getting a port of the censored japanese release.

>Still legally classified as art and protected as such in the US
I doubt many VNs would pass an obscenity test.

[Anonymous No.]

>>23066572
99% would easily. Obscenity tests aren't made via one part of the product but the product as a whole and if 1 part of it is found to pass, the entire thing is passed. Art is only seen as "obscene" when it "has no artistic merit". It's like saying Game of Thrones is obscene because it has a few scenes of fucking and nudity.

[Anonymous No.]

>>23066597
A story or character focused VN could pass easily, but I question if most nukige could. They are pretty much just a string of H scenes most of the time.

Literally just one mentally retarded mosaics autist. He is probably mad MG or JAST's shill as well.

[Anonymous No.]

>>23067165
Most nukige would pass since there's usually some semblance of story with the occasional heartfelt moment, or in the ones where you're the bad guy one could probably argue that it's supposed to make you feel like a piece of shit because of how blatantly evil the protagonist is since they're usually cartoon villain levels of bad and thus succeeds in creating an unusual experience. Though yeah there's some that might not make it through, on average anything that isn't a <2 hour nukige will probably be fine though.

>>23069272
Not arguing for/against but 90% of the reason I purchase steam titles is specifically so I don't have to fiddle around with all that file related bullshit. I have the complete game ready to download and install in my library regardless of where I am without needing to go to several different websites and download various other files for the complete experience.

>>23069425
I'd like to point out there's at least 3 people who discuss not buying (or in one case not reading) titles with mosaic, it's not just one person. I'd know because I'm the one who doesn't buy VN's with mosaics but I have no problem reading titles with them.

Baldr Sky would came out better and earlier as fan-tl.
Grisaia had fant-tl, and again would have better as fant-tl because of years of delays.
Subashitty was fan-tl, it was delayed for so long that everyone gave up on it and it flopped badly.
Muv Luv also had fan-tl and official release was censored and cropped. The kickstarter was so much of absolute shitshow that entire trend to KS VNs died in next few years.
Dies Irae was cropped, again the KS was so incompetent that many gave up.
So, according to your examples its better not to support official mosaic releases.

It was competently ran, they just overpaid on the translation AND didn't get a great translation which is just inexperience in the business.

A shame about Libra being such a shitty title in the end and them paying so much for a NukigeGamer tier translation. Did they ever fix it? I remember them having some sort of patreon, but I stopped following and caring about it a long time ago.
>>23070218
Dies irae is uncut and mosaic free too, at least the MangaGamer version, I find it strange that only them are selling it outside of steam, but I still wouldn't support it just because they released a full HD version of Dies irae for Japan the same year and they never fulfilled one of their kickstarter promise which is a combined version of Dies irae which contains both the extra all ages content and H-scenes.
SubaHibi is mosaic free too, but Frontwing cut out one CG and tried to DMCA the fan restoration patch and SCA-Ji writing on twitter how SubaHibi didn't sell Nekopara tier copies despite them getting 105k $ for a almost finished fan-translation is another thing, so fuck them too.

You can't have your cake and eat it too. Rance is as much of a cartel game as anything, and if you don't like that, you just have to accept that describing fairly well-regarded things as "cartelshit" is stupid.

[Anonymous No.]

The cartel doesn't like things on their own merit there is always some agenda they are trying to push. The question is what agenda are they pushing with Rance?

Yes___. But it's actually a super deep social commentary on the eroge industry you see! Because she's a CG collector and has to have sex with the trap to get 100% completion. The scene where the MC (You) lick the traps' semen out of her vagina is super deep too.

For such a short title with a 5$ 18+ DLC, it sure is doing really good.

It is a same-day release in Japan, so it's new and yurifags get so little, I'm pretty sure the entire fanbase just buys whatever comes out.

Honestly its a good example of how important title name is.
It has meme power and it clearly telegraf about it's content. Pretty sure, if it was just another kanji-pun-romanization then, the sales would be more modest.

Sales must have been pretty fucking low for Damekoi to reach 2nd place. Still, I'm quite happy since Nanairo and Damekoi were my favorite releases last year.
3 Alicesoft titles is another thing, in a few years they will need a separate Rance/Alicesoft Top 10 chart.
8 KaguraGame titles in the third party chart.
I'm more surprised that Ciconia didn't make it in the chart, not even on the steam chart, there's no way that Funbag Fantasy is more popular than Ryuukishi07.

Anything besides MG's usual nukige of the week. I generally enjoy any of them that has story for me to spend most of my time in whether that's gameplay games like Rance/Evenicle or more slice of life like Aokana/Sanoba Witch. (Also apparently it's pretty hard to find MG games I actually played)

[Anonymous No.]

>>23088793
Vote for Rance 03 and Evenicle 2, I'm sure those votes will matter a lot :^)

[Anonymous No.]

>>23088793
If you enjoyed Evenicle then maybe vote Evenicle 2? It's probably happening anyway, but it's still a good way to show interest. For slice of life/moege you could go with Amakano, or another game that picks your fancy from Nexton or one of their subsidiaries since they seem to be more interested than ever in the English scene.
Assuming you don't absolutely despise nukige, you could look around on vndb and see if something suits your tastes and vote for it.

Speaking of MG, they still have two hints remaining from both 2018 and 2019:
Yuri
Sorcery Jokers

Makes me think they want to license some cheap, non-voiced doujin titles, or some titles they want to license are too expensive due to the voice acting.

I'd rather get a translated title with no voices than no translation at all. A fan patch to restore the voices would likely follow soon after anyway.

[Anonymous No.]

>>23089153
It sure as fuck is about the Baseson titles which have around 50+ voiced female characters.
I too don't give a fuck as long as there's an ''unofficial patch'' within a week like JAST does it.

[Anonymous No.]

>How much time do you typically spend researching a title before making a purchase? *

Please, MG, next time put a minutes option. I do a bit of research, but I'm not going to be looking up a title for hours. But I guess I'll put hours, since if I put none you'll think I just buy anything with shiny art.
