hehehe most people like Rai. His character design is the coolest and has a very dominant personality Sexy. I think Konoe is cute too. I haven’t completed the game yet so I didn’t know about all the characters. I only started liking Asato after listening to the BLCD. He sounds like an uke-ish (weak) seme but he was very sweet. Fufufu* Bardo owns an inn that’s why lol~ He has to cook for his guests XD

Unless you’re looking at the “educational-value” of playing the game. *MEGA sweatdrop* It does help as an alternative way to learn Japanese. I wouldn’t be comfortable playing the PC BL game with kids around too. It -IS- an adult game but PS2 may be ok (that depends also) since there won’t be explicit scenes.

I can understand why her BF doesn’t like the idea of BL. If a girl can feel offended about a guy liking hentai or yuri, I think a guy can also feel the same way about BL too. Most guys I know are o_O with the idea of being in a gay relationship. I don’t think it is easy to find a guy who doesn’t mind BL, especially with the GF feeling excited over other men (even tho they are in 2D lol~).

The thing is … how is BL affecting their romance life? Is it because she was playing the game and not spending time with him? If that’s the case, maybe it is not just the BL issue but the time issue? Cos playing games are usually individual time. But then again, if they were playing Togainu together (which I think is an unavoidable mistake since they live together), the H-images must have been quite shocking to him.

I find the Loveless boys and girls pretty cute too ^^ The anime is entertaining but illogical Definitely alternate universe. Even Code Geass anime had neko-mimi fan service where the characters dressed up for an event in school *sweatdrop* Lulu was a black cat.

Sha Gojyo with neko-mimi? I can imagine that if all the characters have neko-mimi, he would be fighting with a cheeky Goku (who was making fun and sticking his tongue out at him) and Hakkai shrugging his shoulders with his trademark smile and Sanzo looking bored and chewing on his cigarette.

I cannot say tht i like Konoe or Asato. prefer Rai.
but Bardo in chibi ver is cute. Does he really make cake? XD

The ‘bored’ factor worried me especially knowing th game ain’t cheap either.
BL game CD is a luxury so i sure will consider lots of things before actually buying it.
If i think it about playing Bl game, i can only play it during night becoz i don’t think im willing to play it during daylight with my daughter around (even thou i will be using headphones)

Years ago, a friend of mine bought BL game and play it (she lives with her BF), one day she told me tht she and her BF argued about the presence of BL game in their romance life.
Her BF is offended with the scenes and my friend decided not to play it anymore.
Do you think BL game is offending and bruising men’s ego?
At tht time i dun know wht to say to my friend, at tht time im not even aware of ViewFinder or K & I.

Neko-mimi boys are resistable but im not sure if i like LOVELESS.
I prefer Sha Gojyo with neko-mimi ha ha ha

My first BL PC game is Silver Chaos (fantasy). It was highly recommended for the pretty smut and easy capture. At that time I wasn’t a BLCD fan, so it was quite *blush* and wierd to see and hear the in-game H scenes lol~ I thought it was rather strange seeing the uke getting it on with everybody and saying similar things when I play different routes. But I think partly it is cos of the Silver Chaos story and the superbly cheesy lines they say to each other during sex scenes. I think I rolled my eyes at some of the routes lol~

Anyway, completed it using sheer determination and morbid curiousity hahaha Opened the game in one window and the text capture in another + an online translator in a browser =_= Armed with my limited Japanese, I went on to complete Silver Chaos 2 (attempted sci-fi). Actually both games are quite no brainer especially if you use a capture guide. The stories are so-so and nothing spectacular, very predictable and easy to guess even if you don’t understand Japanese. It has all the typical BL characters (the childhood friend, the older guy, shota/neko-mimi type, knight/strong, silent type, prince type, kichiku megane type, etc)

And when trying to capture all the CGs in such games, the SKIP button is your friend!!! cos the routes are all repetitive, so it can be boring at times. And the soundtrack was also very cheesy OMG =_= Looking back, I can’t believe I managed to complete them. The fan disk was more fun cos every scenario was different But if you’re in it for just the eye candy and smutty CGs, it delivers really well. Oh yeah, it also has a yummy seiyuu cast including Inoue Kazuhiko.

Togainu is much more interesting because the characters are very different and have intriguing back stories. Not the usual one-dimensional templates. The scenarios are one of the better ones too and I don’t find it as repetitive. It is definitely one of the better thought-out BL games out there.

Hmm I think you’ll probably not get hooked ^^ we have an additional language barrier so it does affect somewhat our enjoyment of the games. I definitely find myself more entertained when I can understand what they’re saying

Hopefully the new nitro+ game would be just as good. I’m going to miss Tatanakana as the illustrator tho’

I think Lamento is just as popular if you judge from the sheer amount of goods and doujinshi available. People who like Togainu would probably like Lamento too. Well… who can resist neko-mimi boys *meeow* XD

I dunno what BL game i should get, Amazon Jp won’t help coz the limited knowledge on Japanese.
Im going to consider to buy BL game after Togainu PC arrived. Who knows i might get an addiction or might not like it at all.

Hee? change illustrator? Should i take it as bad news?
Dunno, sometimes it’s hard to adapt after seeing their illustrator did a very good job.

Do you think Lamento is less-famous than Togainu?
or usually those who like Togainu will also like Lamento?

I need professional counselling. LOL~

I think playing these story games can be quite helpful in learning how to read and as well as recognising Japanese, especially kanji

Which BL game you like to get? There are a few others which are quite highly rated too. I usually like to check them out at Amazon Japan for the ratings hehe. I wonder if they’ll re-release Lamento on PS2 too ^^ It is probably a matter of time. Nitro-chiral is also working on a new game at the moment. If there are no delays (which happens often) it’ll be available in December. They changed a new illustrator tho’.

I wonder if Bl game will appear on Wii..hahaha must be fun.

Yeah… lots of opportunity to faint from blood loss lol~ XD

How come Sakurai is in PC ver but not in PS2 ver? Does this kinda thing usually happens?
I look forward for your review. Hupply dun get nosebleed while reading it Haha

Apart from instant noodles, you can try bread too lol~

Cafe Lindberg (Bokura no Renai Shinrigaku series) is quite interesting cos you can pair everybody with one another as either uke or seme. Lots of variety! Hehe.. The soundtrack is very nice. Really has a relaxing cafe feel. ^^ The PC versions of the previous vols 1,2 and fan disk were very nose-bleed. I would love to own copies of those too but… hard to find nowadays. I like the seiyuu cast which includes Itou Kentarou, Chiba Susumu and Sakurai Takahiro (who isn’t in the PS2 version) and I bought one of the game’s drama CD which I want to review later.

As for the PS2 version I bought, it is rated 15 so will not be explicit ^^

Bara no Ki ni Bara no Hana Saku PS2 stars Morimori and Chiba Susumu. Nice ne? XD The pairing variety is also quite good. I like the Showa setting. It was one of the first PC BL games I’ve come across and left a deep impression on me although I’ve not played it before. Also rated 15. The PC versions are quite explicit tho ^^

Woooo…15.000 Y??? i dun wanna press my CC limit and ended up eating instant noodle for solid 30 days Hahaha~
