A Big Shipment Has Come In! +Uta no Prince Sama Shining Live

Hello! Welcome back to another post! This post is about "Uta no Prince Sama: Shining Live"! The English version (along with Chinese) recently came out this past week, and of course I went ahead and downloaded it right away. Before I start talking about it though I do want to mention that I was planning on starting "Collar x Malice" but that obviously didn't happen. I decided to just play Shining Live this whole time instead. Though I'm planning on picking it up this week, so hopefully that will stay that way. 

Back to the main thing though. Honestly I am super excited and hyped about this. I have been playing it nonstop and time just seems to fly by. There are a few problems with this though that I can't really ignore. I've also seen this complaint and everything through the people I follow on Twitter as well. And that is it's characterization. There are somethings that the character's say that don't fit them at all. It's like someone just translated it without even knowing the characters. Honestly to me that's really disappointing and upsets me every time I realize it. Though I can ignore it for the post part or my mind auto-corrects it. Ren's event is currently on and I unlocked all ten episodes and I haven't even touched them at all yet. I wish we could do something about this, but I don't really know what we could do. 

I think that's the only thing that I can think of that actually was big on me. I really do enjoy this game and the series of course obviously. I'm such a huge Utapri fan so I'll also obviously still love and play this game. Not only that but people are actually meme-ing the wrong characterzation's also, so I guess there is some fun in it? 

I can't wait for what's to come to this app and hopefully somewhere down the line there will be fixed translations. (Even if we have a big/long maintenance for it. It would be worth it.) I overall enjoy this app and will continue to enjoy along with Utapri. This is all the time I have for this post, but if you'd like to voice your thoughts on Shining Live down below in the comments then I'd surely love to read them! For now though, I'll talk to you guys later!

A Finished Tea! +Period: Cube ~Shackles of Amadeus~

Hello! Welcome back to another post! Before I start off this post I do want to mention real quick that for people who bought games on Voltage stand alone apps, then make sure to transfer all of your apps to their app Love 365 and also do it as fast as you can since they do have a transfer deadline date for them! (Varies on when app transfers over, normally a 3 month time period. Link below of the transfer end dates.)

Though now let's get onto the main focus of this post! Last week's post I mentioned that I would make a post about "Period: Cube ~Shackles of Amadeus~" once I finished it! Well... I did finish it, I just haven't read or looked at any of his perspective's yet. Honestly I also tried to see and figure out if there was like a true route just to make sure and sure enough there wasn't any, so I really am finished. Honestly I personally really enjoyed this game. I know that Otomate games for some people are either hit or miss, good, or just bad. Though I really enjoyed this title and this was the title I was most excited for out off all of the English PS Vita releases last year. So I guess that could've also helped out in a way?

Synopsis (Link - http://aksysgames.com/pcube/ ):
Searching for clues about your missing brother, you and your childhood friend Hiroya begin playing an online RPG called “Arcadia.”

You’re suddenly enveloped in a flash of light, and awaken to find yourself in a mysterious fantasy world. You discover you’ve been sent inside of the game, and learn that the only way out is to complete it. In a deadly world on the verge of collapse, you become the “Almighty,” the key to clearing Arcadia, and the secret weapon everyone is after.

You and your companions undertake a perilous journey, where love grows as the world falls apart.
(END)

(If things seem spacey or out of detail then that's because I'm trying to make it spoiler free~!)

In this game I loved all of the characters! Even some side characters like Forte. I always enjoyed seeing them appear in the other routes that I've done once I actually knew more about them and everything. I feel like they made a lot of things more light hearted and enjoyable during certain times. Actually when I first saw and heard Jocus in the first route I've done, I instantly recognized his voice actor, which made me very surprised at first, but happy at the end. (Especially since I only look at the main guy's voice actors, so obviously I would be a bit surprised.)

My first route for this game was Astrum's route. And I finished this game on Demento's. Honestly my first time playing is always a mystery since I always just go with fate and I guess fate has lead me to Astrum first and if I realized/figured out how to get Demento's route sooner I would've played him way sooner. Also since I'm pretty sure Hiroya and Poyo-Poyo's routes are supposed to be the last two that you play, but whoops. If I did play Demento's route earlier then Poyo-Poyo's route would've been last. (And I would've liked to of made Demento my second route then. Though I do feel some disappointment that his route was so short? Like maybe it's because I started it off right were we can level up our affection with him, but still. When I think about it though it was pretty good and wrapped him up nicely, so maybe I'm just messed up with how short it is, since I was so used to the other ones being full routes.)

I am just happy that Hiroya's character type isn't one I'm all to attracted to, haha... In the end though I really loved and enjoyed this game! I personally have a few routes that I just ended up enjoying a lot more than others. I also enjoyed the art and it was pretty entertaining story wise. Not only that but I also enjoyed the RPG parts. So I do recommend this game to people who are interested but don't know if they should try it out yet!

In the end I think I'll end this post here! If you want to add on your own thoughts or feelings then comment down below! Or else I'll talk to you guys later!

Let's Talk About Sweets That Need To Be Made! +Otome Games I Want Translated

Hello! Welcome back to another post! In all due honesty this post is kinda late due to me forgetting it was Sunday, so I forgot to make a post til now. Though in all due honesty my mind has been so filled with so much other stuff in my life that I just kinda didn't have the mind space to remember this week. But it's fine since I'm making a post now! Not only that but next weeks post SHOULD be my post about "Period: Cube ~Shackles of Amadeus~"! Though if it's not next weeks post then definitely the weeks after next week.

Also! The English version of "Uta no Prince Sama: Shining Live" is planning on coming out soon! It's going to be on both IOS and Android with the preregister already on Google Play! Shining Live is a rhythm game by Klab and Broccoli. All of the social media for the game is now out and open and if we reach a certain following goals then we get bonuses for when the game comes out! So I'll put the links down below of the website and their Facebook and Twitter! (Make sure to follow their Twitter and/or Facebook page so we can get those bonuses! We already got two out of the three!) pre-orders for the Code: Realize games both regular and limited addition versions are now available for pre-order! Both will be coming out on March 30th of this year! Now this post will be about otome games that I would really enjoy to be translated! Like in my other post I'll only be doing my top three, so let's get on with it!

The first game (series in this case) I would like to mention is "Uta no Prince Sama"! Honestly I'm always holding back in my posts to not talk about this and every information that comes out for it. Though now is my chance! I really love all the songs this series has to offer! I love all the characters in it and this is honestly something that has became really important to me in my life. So I would really enjoy for these games to be translated to English.

Synopsis (From Wikipedia):
With dreams of becoming a composer and someday writing a song for her favorite idol, Haruka Nanami enters the Saotome Academy, a prestigious performing arts school. If successful there, she'll be able to join the Shining Agency after graduation. However, it won't be so easy when Haruka is already surrounded by potential idols and composers. On top of that, her homeroom teacher is a current idol, the headmaster was a record-breaking singer, and the academy itself is an eccentric place where anything could possibly happen.

In the end, right at the graduation, two students are to be teamed up by the choice, one will take the role of the idol and the other should be the composer. After being paired up, they will sing a song that was both composed, written and sung by them. If successful, they will join and take the spot as the new Shining Agency debut artists. In addition, romance is strictly prohibited at their school.
(END)

The next game that I would like to be translated is, "ALICE=ALICE". Originally drama CD's Reject also made it as a PC Game. Though since I can't really add in here the Kuni no Alice series since there used to be an English one of the first game on IOS and Android by the company that made the series "QuinRose" that sadly went bankrupt. But there is also a translation group that is working on translating one of the remakes of the first game on PC. (With most routes and endings already complete!) So I decided to go with this one. (Also since I'm such "Alice in Wonderland" trash if you could not tell.) This one interests me a lot with this cannibalism thing and it honestly seems like something I would enjoy a lot! Not only that but I love the characters already with their descriptions! The art style to me is something I also like a lot!

Synopsis (From Otome Jikan - Link: http://otome-jikan.net/2013/08/09/alicealice/ )
Never-changing days, days you couldn’t care less for.
Without a single excitement.
Is that really happiness?
There’s another me who exists, who says that I no longer need such happiness.
There’s something more, much more, pleasurable in this world.
I spent my days thinking that and at the next moment, a gaudy-looking black rabbit appeared before me.

“Oi, you there, if you’re that bored how about coming here?”
“Despite saying that, once you enter, you may not be able to return anymore.”
“Kuku, you may have the best pleasure, which you’ve never experienced before?”

Without any hesitation, the answer I chose was:

Yes / No
(END)

The last and final game for this post is, "Drug Prince And Narcotic Girl" by coly inc.! This is a Japanese app on IOS and Android that I stumbled across two years ago I think? The art style is the same as most Voltage inc games, but I have never been so hooked on an app that's in Japanese that I really want to be translated into English! Normally I either always skip over them or try not to pay them much mind when I'm on the App or Google Play store.  For this one though I think I'll let the Synopsis do the talking as to why.

Synopsis (Otome Amino "NerdBerd" - Link: https://aminoapps.com/c/otome/page/blog/why-do-i-torture-myself/DR8J_kQSPuxXKV4nq5dKaojbmK3ojQNWZD )
The prologue opens with you waking up outdoors, tied to a chair and presented to an audience as a prize. You start to put together what has happened. There’s a boxing ring, which might have been an illegal fighting match and boxers could be injected with cocaine in order to heat things up, making it a win or die fight.

The two boxers step into the ring but then one suddenly grabs the man emceeing the event while the other unties you. You’re wary and refused their help only to realise the two man (after they unmasked themselves) to be Seki Daisuke and Aoyama Itsuki, both your colleagues in Narcotics.

You play a 26-year old pharmacist and suddenly, your friend and colleague Ayako rushed to you about a very handsome man waiting for you at the car park. Thinking that you might have got in trouble with the law, the handsome man insists that he is not doing anything unsavory (unless you had or have been dealing medicine illegally…).

Seki flashed his badge, showing that he’s the head of the Narcotics department. He scouted you for a reason: your body’s ability to handle (or be immune to) certain drugs, which is useful as a wildcard in their operations.

On your first day, you meet the rest of the guys and would be partnered up so he could you show you the ropes and keep you safe because people with the ability to resist the effects of drugs are often targeted (useful for research).
(END)

Well this is it for this post! Though a few other ones that I wouldn't mind being translated are "Brothers Conflict", "Sanrio Danshi", & "Otome Yusha". (Along with any other "Alice in Wonderland" otome games, plus all the other ones on my list.) If you want to list your top three below then go ahead! I'd love to see your top three! So comment them down below! Or else I'll talk to you guys later!

Let's Look Into The Wanted Sweets! (+Games Wanting to Play This Year!)

Hello! Welcome back to another post! Before I start off this post I'd like to say that "Code: Realize ~Future Blessings~" for PS Vita and the one for PS4 (that has both the first Code: Realize and Future Blessings) will be coming out on March 30th this year in North America! It will launch in Europe sometime during Spring 2018! The North American version will also have a limited edition version as well! It will include these things (for PS Vita):

- 17″ x 24″ cloth poster
- Set of nine of 1.5” pins with chibi art of the main characters
- Set of 8 bromides featuring glamour shots of the heroes (and heroine) of the Code: Realize universe
- Special slipcover for Code: Realize ~Future Blessings~ and the player’s copy of Code: Realize ~Guardian of Rebirth~

~~(The link to where I got this info will be below! Also with more information of ~Future Blessings~ and such!)~~

Now let's move onto the main section of this post! This post is all about games I want to play this year! This will most likely be a two part-er post (or more part-er post, though I will most likely write the one post even if it's not all of them, but to keep things in January and such, though you can always comment if you'd like to know some others!) and I could've also forgot some games that I wanted to play in this post as well. (On another note this post will not involved games that I want to be translated to English that I would like to play.)

Let's start off with the game I would like to play most that is going to come out this year! The first game is "7'scarlet"! (PS Vita) Honestly one of the huge reasons why I want to play this game is because the art is done by Kurahana Chinatsu, who does the character designs and some other things for "Uta no Prince Sama"! I've read somethings about the dateable character's for this game as well and a lot of them seem really enjoyable! The story line also seems like something I would enjoy a lot also! Not only that but I love the colors and aesthetics of the game as well!

Synopsis (link below):

“The summer holidays. A town caged by nature, Okunezato. One year ago in this town, her older brother suddenly disappeared without a trace.

The protagonist and university student Hanamaki Ichiko is invited by Kagutsuchi Hino - her childhood friend in the same university year level as her - to go to Okunezato in order to look for her disappeared older brother together. Hino had found the “Forbidden Okunezato Club”, a website in which its visitors discuss the mysteries and legends of Okunezato.

The “other face” of Okunezato comes to light as rumours regarding the “Legend of the Dead” are treated as though they were fact. Everytime they follow the footsteps of her disappeared brother, mysterious events spark. The true existence of the forbidden grounds, and the legendary flower that only blooms in Okunezato…”

(END)

The next game that I would like to play is "Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly" and "Psychedelica of the Ashen Hawk"! (PS Vita) These two games are also coming out sometime this year! Ashen Hawk is the sequel to Black Butterfly. Though to me the story sounds really good and something I would be quite into! It gives me a certain vibe that I can't really place, but it's a type of vibe that I know means that I will end up loving it!

Synopsis (Black Butterfly)(link below):

“As she fell deeper and deeper into the darkness, she could hear the sound of rainfall. Also, she heard an animalistic cry.

When she woke up, the young girl found herself in a Western-style mansion.
An unknown, terrible monster rushes to attack the confused girl.
As the young girl ran away from the monster, she thought:

Having lost pretty much all of her memories, she eventually met and joined up with some men in the same circumstances as her. They all held weapons that were strange handguns. From there on out, with their lives at stake, they must participate in the Black Butterfly Hunt, and collect Kaleidoscope Shards"possessed by those monsters.

Inside the Western-style mansion in which despair and betrayal swirls, will they be able to find hope in their futures?”

(END)

The third one for this post (which is also coming out this year) is "Ikémen Revolution: Love & Magic in Wonderland"! (By Cybird and will be on Mobile) I actually made a post announcing about this game and how hyped I am for it! Basically I'm hyped for this because I'm a huge "Alice in Wonderland" fan! So I always enjoy more Alice in Wonderland" otome games! I also searched into this game and I'm really hyped to romance the characters! The story line and how this Wonderland universe is set up really makes me feel like I'll enjoy this quite a bit!

Synopsis (doing what I did in other post I talked about this game in):

Cybird's Video (4:38 - 6:33 for "Ikemen Revolution: Love & Magic in Wonderland"): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qI-FujQnfZg

(END)

I think this shall be all for this post! These are my top three! Though I will also say that finishing up/playing the three PS Vita games that came out last year since I got them for Christmas so I can finally play them! I already talked a bit about Period: Cube and can't wait to talk about it more in a post! But if you'd like to comment down below about something like the games you want to play most this year, then go ahead! I'd like to know at least your top three as well! Or else talk to you guys later!

Happy New Years!

Hello! Welcome back to another post! This is the first post of 2018! I'm sorry for such the late post! I couldn't go on my computer for the last few days since family was over to celebrate New Years! Though I will still be posting every Sunday like always! I don't really have a topic for this post though I will mention a few things, so expect this to be quite a short post. The first thing I'd like to re-mention is that Ray's route in "Mystic Messenger" will be out by the 31st of this month!

Voltage Inc is having a sale til the 9th of this month on some of their games in their combined app called Love 365. "My Twin Romance" by Genius is still all ticket free til the 31st of this month as well! This is the few things that I remember though there could be a few other things. I have though recently started playing "Period: Cube ~Shackles of Amadeus~" on my PS Vita and I plan on talking about it in either next week's post or a post sometime this month most likely!

I think I'll be ending this post here though! I have a few idea's that I may or may not do during this month to start off the new year. (Like looking back on 2017 in otome and such.) But for now Happy New Years and I'll talk to you guys later!
