Shirokoi (1)

Been playing Hakuisei Renai Shoukougun lately, hereforth shortened to "shirokoi" because I am too lazy to type out the entire title every time.

It's pretty nice so far, though the beginning was reeeeally technical. Random medical terms EVERYWHERE. Fortunately, they have a popup glossary thing for most of the uncommon terms, which really helps out. Haven't played a game that had one of those since Alicematic.

Mainchara Kaori was a bit annoying at first, since she had a tendency to freak out every time someone mentioned something like the importance of not mixing up drug names and whatnot, which is aagh because DID YOU NOT GRADUATE FROM NURSING SCHOOL HOW THE HELL DO YOU NOT KNOW THIS STUFF!?

I mean, shit. I know most of the stuff they talk about (I do have like five nurses in my immediate family, but still), but there should be a better way to bring it up in-game than making the protagonist seem completely incompetent.

But meh, her dumbness level has steadily gone down as I've progressed, and Sayuri's really been getting at her about it now that she's shown up.

My main issue thus far is that I started the game with no opinion as to who to go after, and then the kansaiben-speaking Yamanouchi won me over... but I found out upon some poking around that she doesn't actually get a route to herself. >_<

BAH. I hate it when shit like this happens, now I'm probably going to get a Bad End.

Kuttsukiboshi (part 1)

...so I finally got around to watching Kuttsukiboshi.

I first heard about it sometime last year, but it wasn't out yet and so I put it in the back of my mind... and then I stumbled across the official site again last week and after going ガチ百合ｷﾀｧｧｧ~　(ﾉ>ω<)ﾉ　　for a bit, I went about obtaining the first episode.

So... holy shit that was a lot dirtier than I was expecting. Still nice, though. And the end... GOD DAMN IT WHEN THE FUCK DOES THE SECOND PART COME OUT I NEED TO KNOW HOW THIS SHIT ENDS GAAAAAAAAH.

Just... goddamn. Cliffhangers are bad enough on their own, but they're especially AGH-inducing in indie projects like this which have a tendency to not get completed. >_<

But once the second part is released (knock on wood), I will buy that shit right the fuck away, no question.

Even if it ends badly.

Please don't end badly. ;0;


On another note, Mingos played Kiiko in this... she's been in quite a bit of yuri stuff lately. Not that I'm complaining, though.

Kind of a shame that they didn't have her do the ED theme since, you know, MINGOS.

But meh, it was probably budget stuff or whatever.
