Otome Game Review: Edel Blume
Story is about our heroine Mary who is an apprentice nun that does her daily nunly duties and helps out with the church and orphanage. She has 2 childhood friends, one who is a teacher. One day a man named Gerald comes and says he will take her with him back to the castle in the forest on her 16th birthday, as his wife. The castle is forbidden to all of the villagers and Mary doesn’t exactly want to leave all her nun BFFs and her 2 hot childhood friends behind. Whatever will she do? Read the rest of this entry

ですよネー
この３日に２倍PPと経験値なのに３回大会やっててあきた。( ´_ゝ`) ポテトやチョコやマスコットあるというのにやる気０。どうしてだろうね。明日もう一度対戦でもやってみるが今日はこれ以上やってられない。今週のアプデーは金使え！金使え！金使え！しか見えないからそのせいなのかな…
Otome Game Review: Princess Nightmare
I was really sad that I couldn’t play Danzai no Maria since Karin’s old games hate Windows 7 it seems…but since PN had a PS2 port I was able to play it (｀ゝω･)vｨｪｨ The story is about our heroine Little Draculair, a 114 year old vampire, who moves from Transylvania to Japan with her “father” Vlad Draculair and “brother” Radu Draculair. While her brother doesn’t want her going out to suck the blood of humans, she often sneaks out using her cat youkai as a decoy. Her father finds out but he lets her change into human form and attend a middle school for 2 years so she gets to experience a human school life. Fortunately unlike our typical otome heroines, Little has balls of steel and it’s her way or the highway (*’∀’*)ウフフフ♪ Read the rest of this entry
Phase System
Major change coming to skillsets in the next update. All characters will have the option to go 2 directions like in most MMOs. Typically a normall MMO you start as beginner then move to say swordsman, advance to Knight or Paladin. In this game you just had different set of “classes” to play but now each character will have 2 sets of “types”. If you watch the video above it will show examples of each type. I read about this last week on 4gamer…and from what it looks like it’s a “defense” and “offense” type. With Pinko for example the defense will absorb damage from party members etc. The offense will obviously spew a bunch of rockets. The biggest question remains is – how will this affect those that are already at high level? Apparently the different class change can be done at level 30 and 50 but what about those of us already above 50? Are they gonna hand out free skill resets or screw us over and make us buy them? I sure as hell am not buying one… 2ch is going nuts over this. Guess only time will tell.
Poupee 4th Anniversary
Wow it’s been 4 years already?? Then again come to think of it, this summer will be my Poupee 3 year anniversary haha….I guess time flies. Sadly I just blew money to change my face so I couldn’t afford to buy much 
Good thing there’s gonna be a ribbon campaign from the 23rd so I’ll really start comment spamming!!
Otome Game Review: Last Escort 3 -Club Katze-
So with our final (I hope) installment of the escort series here comes Club Katze! (Katze is German for cat apparently.) To be honest this game feels a lot like LE1 than LE2. They took out all the annoying extras from LE2 (room decoration, touch/look/feel, mini games) and basically added the features that LE1 was lacking (scene skip, anytime save). Just like with LE1 present making and lottery has come back but for lottery you would just win randomly based on your leveled up stats and the presents would always just “auto succeed” based on your stats. While the game overall was a lot easier and less annoying (pretty much no repeat dialogue during the host visits and before/after scenes) the music and the art took a hit instead. ／(^o^)＼ﾅﾝﾃｺｯﾀｲ The music just sounded like some bland 1950s gangster movie combined with elevator music and well the art….let’s just say some of the characters just grossed me out period Our heroine is Takaoka Izumi who is forced to attend Club Katze as part of her job (as a spy or something??) but it doesn’t matter as her personality is as flat as a board.

Otome Game Review: Last Escort 2 ~Shinya no Amai Toge~
So continuing with my February Escort Month we’re moving on to #2. I guess D3p realized that LE 1 was just too much torture and LE2 was significantly easier. The obvious things were that you didn’t have to spam the lottery to earn money. You earned money by selling random crap on L-Ebay. You could buy so much crap in 1 route and go into the red but you’d start fresh in the next route, keep all your items and sell them for more money! Yes it’s cheating but it beats lottery spam After about 4? routes of ebaying my 99 computers and refrigerators I no longer even needed to do this as my 3.5 million would kinda balance out to the same amount every time I started & finished the next route. Additionally you could save at any point! Change options at any point! What a concept! That means if you weren’t playing on an emulator this game wouldn’t make you rage 20 times over. They hired a different artist to draw the guys so everyone’s hotness level instantly went up! Just like with LE1 the music was very jazzy as well and just like with LE1 I’m sad to say there was no music gallery either ( ´_ゝ`). Bummer. Anyway this time the club is still club Gorgeous but our heroine is Andou Serika who is a 20 year old magazine reporter. The new Gorgeous tenchou is now Amane and not Minazuki ;_;. The club also looks less golden and more sleezy. Additionally the game time has been cut from a full year span to only a half year span and they added some mini games to try to entertain (read: enrage) you. Read the rest of this entry
バレンタインは…ポテト？
というわけでポテトイベントだｗ。 バレンタインイベントなし、チョコステッキなし、ハート手袋無し…(´･ω:;.:… 部屋に置いといたからいつでもぬすんでも(●｀･ω･)ゞ大丈夫！ Read the rest of this entry
Otome Game Review: Last Escort ~Kurochou Special Night~
As I mentioned in my last post, this is the appendix disk to the original LE. You’re supposed to be able to transfer all your save data and etc. from the first game. I tried to do this many times but after failing I decided to just start from Minazuki’s route and try to make his and Chihiro’s gifts along the way. Fortunately along the way somehow magically….everything transferred O_O! I was so happy I could cry and to add on to my happiness I ended up winning the 20 million yen jackpot like 8 months in a row ／(^o^)＼ﾅﾝﾃｺｯﾀｲ So anyway the only thing that didn’t transfer were my saves but all the Cgs, mails and thank god even gifts transferred. That means the wagashi gifts I made for Minazuki in the first game I didn’t have to remake! Yippie! Read the rest of this entry
Poupee Valentine 2011
Meh the ribbon section this year is kinda disappointing. I thought last year’s stuff was a lot better. Hell I even think the 2009 stuff was better. I think Katherine doesn’t realize sometimes LESS is MORE ( ´_ゝ`). Apparently there will be some limited chocolates that I guess turn into white day related stuff on 3/14. I always seem to miss those limiteds though but I guess I’ll try to buy at least 1.
Otome Game Review: Last Escort ~Shinya Kurochou Monogatari~
I call February host club month because I’ve decided to duke it out and make my way through all 3 last escorts! ( ﾟ∀ﾟ)ｱﾊﾊ八八ﾉヽﾉヽﾉヽﾉ ＼ / ＼/ ＼ The story is about our heroine Akari whose father owns a host club “Gorgeous” that she decides to start attending. Her father ironically isn’t too happy about this but it doesn’t matter because she gets to visit hot mans and blow her life savings to make sure they get the number one host spot! I almost gave up on this game but Koori helped me out at the beginning which motivated me to continue. You have to first run 1 route of just doing part time jobs to make money and then using that money to buy supplies to make presents for all the mans. That means you gotta make sweaters, earrings, bracelets, hats, scarves, 3 course meals and paint pretty pictures. I mean our heroine really is a jack of all trades! Of course unless you have save state, when you make these presents and they fail you will lose the items and you’ll need to buy more. With save state it was very easy so yea unless you play this on an emulator the game is the equivalent of getting spanked with a belt over and over Once you make all the gifts and you get the “friend” ending, you can then start playing all the guys routes. While you won’t actually gift them every single gift, you do get a cute “I love you” message from each guy when you complete his “set” of gifts so it was a nice reward for all the effort you have to put in. While doing all the mans’ routes you have to then cheat using save state or in game save and win the jackpot lottery. There’s no way to be able to afford the alcohol for the guy twice a month (which comes out to about 3.5 million yen each time) unless you win the lottery. That said, this game’s values are incredibly unrealistic but let’s roll with it!
