Let's Have a Merry Christmas! +Mystic Messenger

Hello! Welcome back to another post! For this post I'll be talking about Cheritz's merchandise pre-order! It's mostly their "Mint Eye Special Believer Package", though they also came out with two pin sets. One is the five RFA members with the other one being V, Rika, and Ray. The main topic of this blog though is the Believer package. The pre-orders for this package is December 22nd, 2017 - January 28th, 2018 (KST) and everything will start being shipped on the 29th of January. Ray's route is also expected to come out on January 31st, 2018. During this post I'll be listing the first few things for the most part (and it's probably not going to be in the most detail but the link will be down below anyways) though I'll put the link bellow of the website where it tells you what everything is going to be inside it.

The first thing in this is the Mint Eye Believer Card (which has the activation code on the back of it) and Mint Eye Believer Neck Strap. After activating the code you will get Mint Eye Email, Phone Calls, and Text Message ringtones. (54 in total) 800 hourglasses. And finally V & Ray unlimited calling card.

The next thing is four cards. You get 707's ID Pass, Rika's Master Card, Ray's Believer Card, and Yoosung's High School Student ID Card.

The third thing is Mystic Messenger OST ~Another Melody~. This involves tracks from Another Story and all of their DLC's so far. This has two CD's.

The fourth thing is Mystic Messenger's Another Talk Party. This is under the assumption that Secret Ending 1 & 2 has been unlocked. This comes with bonus video's also.

This is all I'm talking about for this post! There is a total of 6 items (categories) total. Even though I didn't talk in much details about this I am actually super hyped about this and really want it! It's just Christmas is the next day for me so I'm distracted by it. Though before I go I will mention that if you pre-order the Beliver Package then you will get a 200 Hourglass bonus. But for now this is all I'll be saying, so for now talk to you guys later! Merry Christmas!

New Ice Cream Flavor! +Mystic Messenger

Hello! Welcome to a new post! For this post I'll be talking about Cheritz's newest announcement! Though I do also want to mention that Cheritz donated $92,000 dollars to charity this year! This is actually amazing that they were able to do this from all the money they got from the people who bought things in "Mystic Messenger"! So everyone should be assured that your money went towards something great! Now though I would like to talk about their newest news!

In their newest post Cheritz started off by saying that their Christmas 2016 DLC will be 30% off! This is from the 15th of this month to the 25th of this month. The other thing they talked about was that RFA members will be give you a Christmas greeting in the game and a special chatroom will open up when you enter the app. This will happen on Christmas day. The other topic in this post was that Ray will be getting a route of his own in Another Story! His route will come out sometime in January of this new year! Honestly I am so hyped up to play his route! His route was the one I always wanted the most and I even had really big trouble with V's route because I always wanted to choose his choices! Honestly I should've just give in and got those bad endings, like the end of V's route hurt me way to much for what happened to Ray.

Though the last thing is that they will be having another box like the VIP Package. Except this is all only for the Another Story section. The box and everything is so different and everything! The box is called "Mint Eye Special Believer Package". Pre-orders for this will start the 22nd of this month and you should get it before Ray's route comes out! All the details for it will also be coming out the 22nd, but for now all we get is a pixelized picture of what it is. I am extremely excited for this as well! They most likely will also have a pre-order bonus for this as well since they had that for the VIP Package.

I think I'll end this post here though! This is really all they have and I'm super excited about the last two things! I can't wait to learn more about the package and I can't wait to dive into Ray's route! Please comment below your thoughts of all of this and if your hyped up for Ray! For now though I'll talk to you guys later!

Let's Talk About Our Two For One Set! +My Twin Romance

Hello! Welcome back to another post! Before I start off this post I would like to start off by saying the Voltage inc added two routes to "Seduced in the Sleepless City" this week! One is an all brand new one while the other is a returning one. The first one that came out this past week is Atsushi Jinnai aka your boss. Since his route wasn't released in the old app and this is the first time for him to be released in English, so this means that he won't be free for the first free days and he will be in full price (400 coins) and only his main story is out, obviously. The other route that came out was Noel Aijima. Since he was out in the old app his main story, epilouge, and sequel are all free and the proposal with the epilogue is only 100 coins for three days (Japan Standard Time), though this time limit has passed already. Though make sure to check out Voltage's facebook page (link down below) so you know when routes come out for it so you don't miss the three day limits! 

Let's get to the main part of the blog though now. For this post I'll be talking about Genius's new game titled "My Twin Romance". Sadly this game is only available on Google Play, though most Genius games have only been available through Google Play lately. Though I have been playing through this game and find it quite hilarious in fact. You can play this whole entire game for free with out using tickets (so you can basically play this all in one sitting if you'd like) until January 31st. I highly recommend you check it out. Not only that but if you also haven't played any Genius games yet then it's a good opportunity to check out the company as well! 

You can choose to romance one of the two twins (obviously by the title) which are called Haru & Yuki. Though I woulf like to hope that they add routes for other character's since some other males are hot and seem totally dateable. I think I'd like to date one of the other guys than one of the twins actually. Though sadly since I can only choose a twin I'm currently settling for Haru. Here is the story/summary for the game: (Link provided down below of source)

You have been living a hard life all this while trying to find a job.
One day, you were stopped by some delinquents on the road at night and was saved by a mysterious black-haired young man.
With his offer, you attended a celebrities’ party. When you were there, you helped a lady who spilled wine on herself and you were soon hired as a servant in that mansion.
At that moment, you were thrilled as you’re finally employed, but waiting for you in that mansion are various unexpected things that will happen between you and a pair of twins with very unique personalities…!

“A commoner like me can’t understand any of this! Is this how celebrities live?!”

Same faces but completely different personalities!
Your heart is wavered by being between these same two faces!
Where would you go from here…?
(END)

I honestly don't think I've loved choices in an otome game more than in this game. All the choices are just amazing, I enjoy them so much. I honestly love all the characters a lot also. Honestly don't waste to play this game until the January deadline is up, since I honestly think you should take advantage of it. This game to me is honestly hilarious to me as long with it's choices. I've also really enjoyed what I've been reading so far in my game-play of this. 

It's time for me to end this post though. If there is anything you want to add onto or talk about then comment down below! Or else I'll talk to you guys later!

Let's Talk About Our Caffeinated Drinks! +Seduced in the Sleepless City

Hello! Welcome back to another post!For this post we will be talking about Voltage inc's "Seduced in the Sleepless City"! Though I think I mentioned in my other post that it would be like a discussion post, but this could be that though also in a way possibly a appreciation post? Think of it what you may though. Also this game is now only available through Voltage's Love 365 app. (Also since all of their games are now switching over to this new app anyways.) So far Yuzuki and Ryoichi's routes have come out. Not only that but on the Love 365 app all character's now have proposal epilogues and two brand new character's are getting routes also that haven't been released yet (in English yet at least) are getting routes as well!

I will say that I am actually really deeply connected to this game. Even though I have only played the free/party version of it only so far. I've always wanted to play the paid version but never got around to it. So I was really happy once it was re-released! Normally I'm not into a few Voltage inc games I play, though I do have a select few that I feel this way for. This game is one of them, especially more so since it was the first Voltage inc game I felt this way for.

Honestly this is one of the Voltage inc games where I can never get tired of it's story or character's. This makes me excited to play the paid version. Even if other otome games have this MC journalist thing in it, I feel like something that makes me enjoy it's plot is the character's. Not only that but while I was playing the free version, I kinda felt like they did a perfect job of equaling out the MC's job/interviewing about your choice of man and also adding in everything about him and moments with him and everything. It was extremely nice and pleasing! (Another game that I thought did nicely of this was "Sweet Scandal" and I have high respect for that game as well, but that's for another post and Sleepless is a bit more important to me.)

The opening video was probably my favorite opening video at the time out of all the games I've played at the time. This is all the time I have for this post. Once all the routes come out in the Love 365 app I'm going to start playing all of them and hopefully I'll write another better blog about it! I'll also be playing all of their routes straight through to their proposal epilogue, so I'm really hyped an excited about it! Also every time a new route comes out on the Love app for Sleepless, then for 3 days that person's Main Story, Epilogue, & Sequel will be free (0 coins) for those 3 days. Not only that but also during these 3 days the Proposal (with it's Epilogue already included in it) will be reduced down to 100 coins. Though both will only last three days from the character's release in Japan Standard Time.

Though for now I really do have to end this post. If you'd like to add something or talk about something then comment down below! Or else I'll talk to you guys later!

New and Old Themes! +Seduced in the Sleepless City +Ikemen Revolution: Love & Magic in Wonderland

Hello! Welcome back to another post! I actually feel like crying a little bit at all the good news this week! Well.. It's technically only two, but both make me so happy that I could cry. I'll first start off with the Voltage Inc news! Voltage Inc decided to bring "Seduced in the Sleepless City" back! It will be in Voltage Inc's new all in one app called "Love 365: Find Your Love" which is already out! Honestly this alone makes me just now start loving this all in one app of theirs. I'm an extremely huge fan of Seduced so once it was getting off of the store and everything of course I felt really sad a shed tears for it. Though it's making a comeback now! In fact Voltage inc is also releasing brand new characters also with it! I can't wait to play their routes! Epilogues will also be added to the proposal stories as well! 

The other thing that I'm going to talk about is about Cybird's new game that is going to be translated to English and come out next year! This game is called "Ikemen Revolution: Love & Magic in Wonderland"! I'm such a HUGE "Alice in Wonderland" fan, so I'm really happy about this coming to English! Especially since I've had my eye on this game by them for quite awhile! I would post the story in this blog but it's in the video down below that I've linked and I personally think it would be better to watch it then to just read it. It start's at 4:38 and ends at 6:33. This game is partially voiced like Ikemen Sengoku is. Not only that but there are a lot of familiar names in the list that I've noticed! I really think I'll enjoy it's story and everything it has to offer! This game might be the game to also get me back into playing my free apps again also!

I should actually start playing them again soon, now that I'm so hyped for this game to come out! Sadly though I have to end this post. I actually might do a discussion post on both games, but I don't really know yet. Though if you want to add on to or say something then please comment down below! Also please tell me what you think about all of this! Or else I'll talk to you guys later!

How About a Roller Coaster Full of Music? +Background Music

Hello! Welcome back to another post! The only news I have to start off this post is that "Mystic Messenger" is going to have another DLC. Though that's really it. Also that I have noticed this a few weeks ago but animate's facebook page as to were they post about games and everything actually ended up getting deleted. I don't know if they made a new one or anything since I never really looked into it, though if any of you know anything then please tell me!

Now let's get on with the discussion! This discussion is the third and last part to the music of otome games. Honestly when I think about it most blog posts are mostly about there top 5 songs or whatever.  Though since I really love all of them I'm just more like stating my own opinion and everything by not doing that. Anyways let's continue! This post is about background music in otome games. In all due honesty though I think it's kinda rare for me to focus or think about back ground music since I'm just always so absorbed in reading, though I also do notice it. So who can say really.

I know that every time I hear really dramatic, scary, creepy, or intense background music in a game then my heart beat suddenly jumps or I try to prepare myself for something to happen. I felt this a lot in "Mystic Messenger" when I was playing. Every time that type of music played I always felt like I was going to get a bad end, so it gave me a lot of anxiety in those moments, haha... Though I also felt this with other games. I also notice very clearly nice, calm, and soothing back ground music.

One of these was one in "Norn9: Var Commons". It's the one with Heishi playing his shinobu. I'm pretty sure it's called "Release The Wind". I love it so much! I think it's really pretty and enjoyable to listen to. Though of course background music all depends on you and your taste. Background music helps to also tell the mood of the scene in a game as well. So I would say background music could either help with a scene or not. Though a game with no background music doesn't really count in this since that's all up to the writing. So keep those games out of this if you may. Background music also helps convey the character's feelings into the game also. especially since sometimes when you look at background music you will sometimes see character themes. Of course it also helps to put the right music into the right scenes as well.

I think I'll close this discussion here. I'll end this post now. Thank you for reading this post and if you have anything you want to add on or say then comment below! Or else I'll talk to you guys later!

What Would You Enjoy Listening To? +Opening and Ending Songs

Hello! Welcome back to another post! I really quickly want to announce that Voltage Inc's newest app "Love 365: Find Your Story" came out today! So as you all know this is the app that has all of Voltage's apps in it. All of their games will also be updated through this app as well. Two new games also came out in this app as well. At the moment they only have it for Google Play though IOS probably isn't to far away. Honestly I was pretty sad about "Seduced in the Sleepless City" going away but there is a possibility that it's actually in Love 365. I mean that would make the most reasonable sense and I would find it quite add if it wasn't there. Though anyways like the title says this post will e about otome opening and ending songs!

So, let the discussion begin! I will first start off by talking about opening songs. Opening songs I would say are actually quite important to the introduction of the game and the game overall. The opening song sets the mood to the game, so a bad opening song would probably make me not as interested or into a game. Opening songs could have either just music or lyrics and singing also. To me it doesn't really matter if it has singing or not. It just matters if it introduces the game properly that I'm still into it or end up becoming more pumped and ready for it.

Now when it comes to ending songs then that it quite different. To me I always enjoy ending songs a bit more than opening songs. Probably because they always have a more emotional approach and it kinda recaps everything of the persons route or of the game if it's a true end. So I think I would always pay more attention to how the ending song is portrayed and made. The video of it doesn't really matter to me but the song does. Even if I can't understand what they are singing right away, I can still tell through how the song is played and how they sing it with their voice.

Even though I said that I probably lean more towards ending songs, I would probably say that I listen more to opening songs in the long run. I would have to say that that is also mostly due to how easy they are to find over ending songs, but if a game has a good opening song. Then that would also make sense as to why I wouldn't mind listening to it.

I think this discussion has now come to a close. (At least for this part.) The next one will be about BGM (back ground music.) Though I think this shall be the end of this post. If you want to add on or say something then comment down below! Or else I'll talk to you guys later!
