Duel Love : Yay! I managed to get Yuma Asakura on the first try; his Lucky Ending! *squee* I didn't have to look up the answers this time! I guess I had to think a little more. The thing that helped me was thinking, "What does he say that might make it so I can see him again/he'll do something for me." I had to look up the answers to get Kei -sama's ending though. My favorite is still Shin -chan *hearts all over*

Kei-sama was cute because he blushed a lot...and because he has long hair! His cut scenes were pretty nice :) Hmm...I can't remember anything specific that I thought was really cool about him that's not a spoiler...so anything else about him will be in the spoiler tag :)

Yuma-tan was really cute, too. I liked his "care" sections the best for some reason. I guess because the art was the nicest or something? I really liked his story, too. I still think Date-senpai is mean. He just hits/kicks people all of a sudden in the middle of a conversation. Psychopath. In contrast, Yuma-tan really cares about his family and stuff. I didn't think his valentine cut scene was very romantic, though. I thought it was a bit dissapointing, actually.

Now I'm going for Jin Yuuki. I think he's a little too tsun-tsun, really. Yuma-tan called him "tundra" (pronounced "tsundOrA" in Japanese) instead of "tsundErE"). So even the guys in the game think he's supposed to be the Tsundere character. This time I didn't save the best or second best for last like I usually do. I played them in the order I liked them *hearts* So it really is fitting that Date-senpai is last :P

[spoiler] ***PRESENTS*** Kei gives you flowers for Christmas. Shin-chan gives you a cat cell phone strap. I don't think Yuma gives you anything *pout* Did Tomo-chan give something? Well, they all give you tickets, so :P I forgot what I was going to write in this spoiler section besides the presents? Anywhoo, I'm having lots of fun. [/spoiler]

Does anyone else wonder what happened to Real Rode? It hasn't appeared in B's Log for a couple of issues...actually, now that I go and look for it, it hasn't appeared in B's Log since the August 2007 issue! It like dropped off the face of B's Log for some reason. Wierd. The June 2008 issue of B's Log says it's still scheduled to be released sometime in 2008...

In case anyone doesn't remember...(have I even talked about it here? I think I may have just talked about it on my IGN blog?) This is the game where Nina, your average high school student and closet game otaku, falls into the world of a game called "Rode." Come on, is there anyone otome gamer who *wouldn't* be interested in a plot like that? It's supposed by Kadokawa Shoten for J-PS2 and the art is by Yura *hearts* It's an adventure/RPG format.

Well, I looked up the website and they have seiyuu announced with sample voices *squee*, so I thought I'd do a dealie on it today :) In order of appearance on the character page:

"What you said just now...I shall not forget it."
Shinn (The Hunter, CV:　Shinosuke Tachibana)...is an unparalleled expert in archery and a famed hunter. He does not hesitate to point his bow at anything he deems a target, no matter who or what they may be.

"No matter what attack they may throw at you, I will always heal the wound from it."
Lukia (The Bishop, CV: Daisuke Kishio)...is a bishop with great powers of healing. He continues a wandering journey in the name of training. Though rough, he's full of curiosity, cheerful and lively.

"Missy, you want to learn...how grown-ups play, too, don't you?"
Keith (The Black Follower, CV Hikaru Midorikawa)...is an attendent to the Prince of Black, in title, but is really just a friend who accompanies him. He favors the gun he's created.

"I see. It looks like you finally understand. --that's good enough."
Dyse (the Black Prince CV: Hiroshi Kamiya )... is the prince of the "Kingdom of Black," which is pursuing the development of civilization. He is confident, believes his will is absolute and that it is only natural to bow down to it.

"Even so I'm enjoying this strange journey, you know. Plus, I can be with you all the time, like this."
Naoya (the Boyfriend、CV: Takashi Kondo)...is Nina's boyfriend and is the same age as her. They go to the same high school and is popular because he seems adult. He doesn't know that Nina likes games.

"Huh...I think, I might have seen this place before?"
Nina (the Heroine)...looks like your average 2nd year high school student but is really an otaku and hardcore gamer. She can't seem to tell this to anyone around her, not even her boyfriend.

"Now, please take my hand, Princess. I shall wait forever, until you accept me."*
Alvand (the White Prince、CV: Ken Takeuchi)...is the prince of the "Kingdom of White," which is abundant in plants and wildlife (nature). Raised in a modest and benevolent kingdown, he is a noble youth with a strong sense of justice that is respected by all.

"There is nothing for you to gain by watching me, understand?"
Raclot (the White Follower, CV: Kazuya Nakai)...is an attendent to the Prince of White and is skillful enough to be called the best sorcerer in the Rode. He is entrusted with the education of the White Prince becuase of his skill.

"If I find another neat place, then I'll tell you first."
Somari (The Villager, CV：Tsubasa Yonaga)...is a youth who works in delivery. Cheerful and kind, he's very thoughtful to Nina.

"...I said it's of no use. No matter how you may try, you will not fool me."
Wataru (The Thief, CV: Mamoru Miyano)...is an aloof bandit. His policy is to steal anything he wants. He favors the dagger and nata** as weapons.

*Translator's Note: This can be taken as "accept, forgive, allow or acknowledge." There's no way to know for sure without the context
**Translator's Note: A nata is like a machete, but a little smaller.

It still looks so good! I like Somari the best for some reason...and then Naoya :) I wonder if something happened to delay production or something? It's kind of strange that they dropped coverage of a game from such a big company like that. I thoguth they'd at least have a release date by now! This is one of hte games i"ve really wanted for a while now. Oh well, it's not like I can play my JPS2 right now anyway :*( Wow, I wrote more than I planned to...I was only going to talk about how Duel Love was going for me...^///^;

Hey, I'm at Level 12, Rad Racer today!
