Seriously why hasn't this been translated by someone like Mirror Moon yet?

It's the sequel to what is probably the best/most popular visual novel of all time, you'd think someone would have jumped on this shit long ago, it's basically guaranteed to be popular.

But here we are five years after release and the translation is still up in the air.

Can someone explain this to me?

I confirm this. The only bad thing about this game - it doesn't work properly under Wine and has too few heroines. And it's short.
And not translated. But in such kind of games, you'll skip text most of the times anyway.

You had to be told how before you knew how to do it and condescend those who don't. If at that time you were told you missed something permanently, you'd wind up reinstalling too.

But at the end of the day, in the context of the game itself, it's just bad design that forces players to do that kind of thing and resort to guides just so they can get to all the content.

The only way you could miss the fact that you didn't get the h-scene is: a) if it's spoiled for you; or, b) if it tells you at the end of the game that you missed it and OH HERE'S HOW YOU CAN RESET THE GAME TO TRY AGAIN.

If it's the first one, then stop letting yourself be spoiled, you lazy bastard.

Kagetsu Tohya is the only VN I used a guide for. Hell, that includes Rance.

Apples and oranges when comparing Rance vs KT guides.

Rance guides are mainly THIS HOW YOU PLAY GAEM. I doubt you need help with the choices.

KT guides are a clusterfuck of IF YOU PICK THIS GO HERE, OTHERWISE GO THERE, OR X Y Z.

Ironically, both are in the middle of being translated.

I just checked the translation wiki, and found that it's still active. As long as it isn't dead, I'm happy. I can wait.

I can play Unlimited Codes or read Fate/Zero if I need my Fate fix.

Bazett is unimportant.

Luvia, though, is Rin's classmate at London. In a parallel universe she falls off the 28th story of a building and is saved by Shirou. Then they team up and investigate a suspicious casino run by a vampire.

They did (amukunau.blogspot.com)... they just weren't fast/motivated enough, and didn't want external help until recently.

I thought the Tohno Con Game was the best out of those little short stories, although Akiha's continuation was nice if not just for her fixation on violating Akira. Interestingly enough, it wasn't even written by Nasu. But fuck that other fan made story about the Nero girl inheritor. If anything were to link Tsukihime and Twilight, it'd be that story.

I actually made it through Kagetsu Tohya's guide the first time I played it, got both h scenes, and then didn't play many of the sides stories... I need to go back and do that before replaying FSN now that I have Realta Nua, and that has to happen before FHA comes out.

Also Arihiko is awesome. I will never get tired of saying this.

Arihiko had a worse life than Tohno and gets constantly shafted.
