As I mentioned in my Spring Preview post, Keitai Shoujo is a web anime and also a craptastic game. Too bad the voice cast is excellent which makes me think they needed something to do between their REAL projects. The main guy (who has no voice in the game) is voiced by Ishida Akira, which personally I don’t feel fits the character and only makes him seem like some sort of a stuck up asshole. Unfortunately because Japan hates me Part II, you can only watch this if you have a Japanese IP address or you’re like me and got lucky with a certain download software. Continue Reading »

Wow that was an incredibly pointless episode. The first half was spent on Tokiko emoing about how Kazuki isn’t around and then taking her frustrations out by randomly fighting practice monsters. Then she decided to go fight Pappillon to “Settle things” in Kazuki’s place but all Pappillon could say is this episode’s title “THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT!” Oh and to waste more time and show some more fighting they brought back the homonculus monsters from like 20 episodes ago. Also this is really strange but what the hell is Victoria holding that has to be censored? She’s like “This is the taste of my mom”. What does she have, a brain flavored crepe? Eww. Also the senshi leader is trying to trace up to the moon of where Kazuki and Victor are, so at least somebody’s doing something useful.

Upcoming Attractions: Final episode, I assume Kazuki comes back because he decided to pick STRAIGHT over HARD GAY.

Ah well that was a swell and satisfying ending to this great drama. All the loose ends were pretty much tied up and so that led to a great conclusion. As we last left off, Hinata had broken into Wataru’s “secret room” but by the time Kayo got to it, it was empty…all except the magazine with the rumor printed in it. This is where Wataru explained the full story. He said that Hinata’s real father and his father were friends, but then Hinata’s real dad got sick and told Wataru’s father Tohru, to take care of his paintings as well as baby Hinata. Because Tohru lost his ability to draw, he started simply copying Hinata’s fathers pictures…something an artist should not do. Continue Reading »

Actually Confession o Rama is a funny book that I read a year ago but I digress. This week’s episode can simply be described by this image:

Both Mina & Tsukasa confessed their undying love for Riku when they found out he’s moving. Sayuri is still holding on to her stupid present and when she thought of throwing it out, the Nurse stopped her and convinced her that it’s “important”. Both girls asked Riku to meet them at their respective spots to tell them the answer but I get the feeling he won’t go to either and instead will somehow end up with Sayuri and it will be some sad goodbye ala Bokura ga Ita or something.

Upcoming Attractions: Finally! The last episode.

God I haven’t cried like this since I watched Air.

I don’t know if I’ll be able to make it in one piece through the rest of the girls.

(I swear I will get through and post a real review.)

Well that concludes the HYD series (for real this time I assume.) Although this ending felt more conclusive than the last one, we totally coulda done without Shigure and Umi. Then again Shigure is gold compared to Umi’s 3 episode appearance…and then her random appearance out of the WOODS to push Tsukushi’s broken truck. The proposal for Tsukushi was pretty surprising but still done rather well and I like how she reeled Tsukasa into the kiss. Aren’t scarves useful?

So in the end I decided to call my section “RenAI” games rather than Eroge since some of the games I plan to play don’t have any porn in them, although they are intended for the male audience. Anyway the real reason I wanted to check out this game is because the anime’s coming out in a few weeks and it has cell phones in it so it sounded interesting. I also liked the character designs of the (what appears to me) the main girl Ichiru. However, this is the type of game where looks can be deceiving and it was so awful I could only make it through the story of 1 girl. Continue Reading »
