YOWI

Welcome :3 I am just one of those girls who cannot live without my 2D boys. This blog is heavy on Otome games, Drama CD, and bit of Anime. I'm also an art-hobbyist, so I might post some of my drawings as well. Feel free to follow me, ask questions, and be friends with me!

[3yowi3]

Hey check this out

I've made an Instagram account!!

If you care enough to follow me, it's right here: @rose.garden_18

I only upload digital illustrations of my OCs so follow if you are interested :3 I might babble about a few of my major genres but only through stories, not feeds

I'm trying to promote my account cuz I purely want to interact with more people through Instagram than any other platform. It's more neat and handy. Tumblr somehow seems to be a nah for me just because it adopts HTML format which is complete nonsense for me :p If I try to change the layout I have to plow up what I've done for 24564hours. And all I get is crap cuz coding simply hates typos :P

[3yowi3]

Okay I'm still alive. (waving a flag

This is actually not my main blog so I might drop off the planet for a long...long... time... and now its proven that it's not a "might"lol.

Im not doing original drama cd tradings anymore but I am open to game tokuten tradings(for otome) so feel free to shoot me a chat on what cds i have.

Also thinking to upload a spreadsheet of trading lists and conditions.

Cheers for our life. Toodles.

Love Unholyc-Mystic Messenger 2.0

All the info is from here →  https://bit.ly/2rl0kkz

 ※Prettybusy, the game company, owns the credit for all the images that are used in this posting.

IF YOU ARE STILL SWIRMING UNDER THE AGTERMATH OF MYSTIC MESSENGER THIS COULD BE THE RIGHT CHOICE

So I’ve got to know this game through my blog buddy(not here).

The staffs were inspired by Mystic Messenger to make this game, so the system is veerrrryyy similar to that of Mystic Messenger. It has phone calls, and messenger. Moreover, what makes this game special is that we can receive a video call from the characters! You can see how the video call works in the game in Prettybusy YouTube channel (the link is on the very bottom of this posting)

BUT there is one big thing that distinguishes itself from that. 

No need more words, but just CHECK THIS OUT ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓

Uhuh, yeah that’s what I’m talking about  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

The race of charms and seduction, "Unholyc". They are regarded as unholy because they are so fascinating and dangeroulsy attractive.

This is a brief intro to what you are about to taste. 

First of all I like the fact that the MC and the other characters are set in a condition to meet each other regularly. It just gives me tingles all over. This is what I reeeeeeaaaaaalllly needed in Mystic Messenger. I mean the mere tension between the unreachable MC and the desirable male characters is clearly what makes Mystic Messenger special. But I thought it’s about time to end the platonic love between me(player) and them ^-T I’M MOVING ON BOYS!

Ah...this dude has some eccentric tendencies...

I’m not one of those do S or do M admirers but that put aside I purely like his outlook. So for now I think Hi will be my first to go?

I’m usually obsessed with long-hair dudes but for some reason not much with this guy hmmm....Perhaps because of his attitude? Based on what’s revealed in the official twitter, he seems to be very flirty and playboyish with girls. Dunno much about him yet but for now he’ll be by second, after Hi,I  heh.

Aha, so you are the typical black-haired guy who's almost like a hot icon in otome games, the one who cannot be eliminated lol. Regardless of that he’s not my type tho :p

I like the part of him that he’s a gangsta. I want some actions and thrills here!

I won’t say more about him, but just keep in mind that HE HAS A ROUTE ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I can’t believe a cute girl like MC is in the middle of a lustful situation.... It really makes me feel bad whenever I see images of her being all seduced and enchanted. Anyways, she’s our lovely MC. 

As you can see the interface and the design is very similar to those of Mystic Messenger. Except for the background design, which seems like what the staffs wanted to characterize as the Love Unholyc style. 

See that? Video call.

There’s more about rewards and exact info about how the funding will go, so please check out the website below.

As for me, still hovering between two funding options. Honestly, I don’t want to be too heavy on my spending to this game just because a lot of things are uncertain. At this point for me what makes this game noticeable is only the relation to Mystic Messenger and contents that is barely on the line of R18, which are some ‘stimulus’ that cannot be easily seen in Korean otome games. 

Yes, the staffs are Korean, it’s a Korean game, the company’s Korean but they are trying to run the game for international fans too.

Also, recently they announced that they added a digital only tire to the package list so go and check it outu :D

Soooo plz fund if you like it! (not many days left!)  →  https://bit.ly/2rl0kkz

🎄Merry Christmas🎄

I hope all goes well till the end of this year and wish all the best in New Year.

As for me I went through many ups and downs. Mostly ups tho lol.

New Years goals watsoeva yariyari yara has been buried somewhere in the deep corner of my unconsciousness since when...

As a game blogger I don't think I've been devoted much to this position hah..(sweat)

I couldn't play many games this year but lets count on to "me" whose gonna be born as a new soul in 2020 (Me: ......)

[3yowi3]

Currently on 剣が刻 (ken ga toki)

If you've ever heard of Ken ga Kimi then I suppose this title will be familiar.

For me, I know the game Ken ga Kimi but can't play for now(and perhapse the next 2 years...) cuz my Japanese sucks.

It takes twice an hour more for me to clear one route of otome game simply because I read slow. Plus, using google translation. So whenever I play an otome game there is this funny scene of me holding psvita on one hand and a phone with the translation app running on the other.

Thus this sequel game of Ken ga Kimi, Ken ga Toki, doesn't really help much..

But I still play this cuz of the characters. God bless Yomi the illustrator she(or he?) is a genius at drawing orientals and pretty-looking samurais. Seriously you can make a quize lining up the duded of what she designed titled "who's the girl out of here?"

My bias Ransetsu!(cv. Ishikawa Kaito)

I finally got to change his clothes. There is this special item that is required in order to level up his skills and that being done I get to obtain his new costume. But till now I couldn't reach class 7 in the sword match which detained the unlock of the particular item.

It seems like the staffs are going to keep on with the "high probability gacha" for now.

But Ransetsu was different. He can only be obtained through a special event....was what I thought it would be but it turns out that he appears in the "high probability gacha."

He's my other bias Amane (cv. Enoki Junya)

I have nothing other to say than that he's cute. That explains all. Period.

He's the type of guy that doesn't want others to look down on him just because he looks cute and chibi-like. And this is what made me hooked to him hehe.

As you can see on the CG he's specialized in forging armaments which gives him another charming point in contrast to his appearance.

I just got to know that this game is going to be published and serviced in Korean... I mean, guys? I suppose you just launched this game like few months ago...? Why not launched both of them at the same time..? Glad I didn't spend any money in the Japanese version. Well the news was very stunning and auspicious at the same time. The good thing at least is that I can plan beforehand of effective and clever use of my game money.

[3yowi3]

Have been a while since my last post(a while:  6months..) 

I was off the planet for quite many reasons, but anyways I think I’ll be posting things again from now on.

The screenshots of 707 and Ray’s birthday tweets are still in my phone to do the translations and.... turns out I vanished even before doing that.. :p

So! as said above, my come-back posting will be about MMS again and with some pics of how I celebrated the twins’ birthday hehe.

I will also be purchasing the VIP+Special Believers Package at some point in the coming days(or months..). So excited!

What’s sad is that my Japan tour got canceled...shoot..

Regarding my national background, I understand why my mom had to make that choice but it still bugs me for ruining my plan for this year :( The tour was the biggest event!!

[3yowi3]

Why are people following me so much?!

I mean besides today, the last post was like 1 month ago...

And it's not even informative. Just bunch of rambles and translations...

Now this creeps me out lol cuz like within a week I bumped up from 15 to 34 followers...

It's not unpleasant or anything but just reallly weird.

[3yowi3]

Mystic Messenger is Going to be Presented in Webtoon?!

Sorry if it's already updated somewhere in the english websites. I was a peice of lazy potato for the past few(?) weeks... and probably the news is outdated by now...

There are links below to the related topic (They are both in Korean... but just in case someone can understand them *shrug)

http://m.moneys.mt.co.kr/view.html?no=2019042217018055423#imadnews

http://m.nspna.com/news/?mode=view&newsid=354302

So the big news here is that MM is in installment in webtoon. It is reported that a multi platform named Bookcube agreed on a contract to serialize Mystic Messenger with Cheritz. The article doesn't say much but one thing noteworthy is that the comic is going to be accessible to foreigners as well. The platform is planning to service both Korean and English version of the webtoon.

Just in case for those who don't know what a webtoon is; Webtoon is a type of comic that is uploaded in installment in specific comic websites, usually uploaded once a week, adapting the form of long vertical canvas, which the viewer has to scroll down to read (ex. Line Webtoon, Lezin Comics etc).

And so here's my personal opinion. To be honest for some reason I can't be all jolly about it.... I think there are both an advantage and a disadvantage to this case. The advantage would be that the users are able to further delve into the MM universe. The con would be that this new way of reinterpreting the MM universe could debacle the border that distinguished the game from other fan-made creations. At least I receive it that way. This whole time the game itself was everything Cheritz provided and what had to be considered as “real.” And now it is giving me another crap that has to be inquired and unraveled, because the webtoon would give a totally different perspective than the game. As long as the source is Cheritz, I think It should be accepted as official; however, whether there they both can be regarded as official is questionable.

I’m not angry or anything about this but just confused. I am a type of person who has to make things straight and cannot tolerate something equivocal. Like this one, giving two things that are official!!

Nothing is revealed for now (unless I’m missing something..) so what I can do is just wait for further news.

+ I wonder when Cheritz will be implementing their new project “Some.” I was looking forward playing that game, cuz that guy Taeho..?, don’t remember, is hot as lava and sweet as lollies!!!

Mystic Messenger Zen's Birthday Tweets Translation

(Starts from the very bottom)

Hello~ I came back for my birthday. Don't say that you forgot about me! Will you remember if I say the TOP MOST FAMOUS SUPERSTAR ZEN? I'm curious how my ladies have been spending their days. What's the news~?

Since it's my birthday today, I'm planning to take a rest and go out to watch a musical. I get touched when I see another actor performing in the stage! Hmm.. how about my ladies? Did you have any moments that put a fire in your heart? If not, then I'll let you see one of my pictorials. Be careful not to burn your heart into ash!

It was a horrible fine dust level few days ago. I heard that the particles even permeate into your skin;; Since it would be a national disaster if my skin, perfect as the surface of a ceramic, would be damaged, I'll put on a special face mask tonight. My ladies, make sure to take care of your skin! Don't forget to put on your masks.

You know, since my birthday is exactly the same day as April Fools Day there are a lot of people who play pranks on me (especially SOMEONE in RFA who I won't specify now^^) But to those who sincerely congratulated my birthday!!! I give you big thank yous!! I was very touched! I'm sorry that I can't reply to every single one of youㅠ But I do read all of them and embed them deep in my heart!

I see that my company is running a hashtag event! #ZEN_생일축하 I welcome all besides Jumin... I see some of you send me jokes~ but I accept all of them because I know that those are full of love.

Too bad but I have to go nowㅠ Take care of your health especially in the change of seasons. I'll be so sad.. if you guys are sick. And one thing that I always stress! Keep up with an organized diet! You know,right?hehe. It was a short time but I had fun! See ya^^

===============================

Just decided to do him...:p

Hope 707's birthday come soon.

Mystic Messenger Yoosung's Birthday Tweets Translation

I'm not sure whether there's an official account that tweets the same thing in English. If that account exists, please inform me through messenger. It would be so awkward of me to post this if so...

(Starts from the very bottom)

Thank you for congratulating my birthday! I'm so happy~!! It's always a thrill of joy to celebrate my birthday, though it's only once a year. I'm planning to spend a day full of love and care. What's the day you expect to be today?

I made my own birthday cake and even had a taste of it~ because I enjoy baking. Hehe I think I enjoyed it more since it was my first try. Is the chef white becoming to me? I'm posting this tweet in the amusement park. What should I go for... For your surprise, I'm good at riding something extreme lol.

At night, there's a party with RFA members. Usually I don't plan my birthday party to be this big, but it feels special to get all the attention. It's also a big thanx to you guys! Thank you again ☆

It's my turn for the ride(*shake) I really want to chat more, but time to go now! Hope you have a great day!!!!☆ No ;w I ll get goi ing

===============================

Haha he's so cute>.<

My next translation will be 707. I might go for Zen before that, since it's the next up. But I'm not a big fan of him so...:p

Love and Producer English ver. a.k.a Mr Love, Queen's Choice a.k.a Let me Crack Out

My,my who's here. Should I call this a dream-come-true or came-too-late...

The story retreats back to when all the clustermess of Love and Producer Korean ver. had to deal with. The users were so tired of the poor administration of the publishing company that most of us leaned towards the Japanese ver. of the game. But it turned out this one was also a fiasco so in the end it was "praise the original :p" In the midst of that, as one of the users, I wished for an English ver. which would have been an oasis at that time. And really I thought it as a "wish." AND OH LOOK NOW MY BOYS ARE CALLED MR!!

I'm sure I can publish an essay regarding the successive delinquency of the companies. I feel the ardency and tanacity of the Korean users should be remarked. They were just group of spartans with bloodshot eyes who were zealous to debunk the publishing company's blunders. The list would be: hasty translations, insincere responses, sequential delay in updates etc. But worse of all was deceiving the useres with a fake probability chart. The gacha was suppose to be prue luck but the probability was manipulated so that it could have a predestined order of getting a specific card. The users, in order to alleviate this situation, did online demostrations, made constant inquiries, and even tried to contact the headquarter. Turned out that if the publisher were the dog the headquarter was the one with the leash. GAME OVER.

I haven't tried the English version yet and I still need to delete mu Korean account. In a state of void, meaning not knowing anything related, I hold an expectation that it will show an augmenting progress. As a mere hope of 'please don't fail on this trial...' Since I'm very inertested in seiyuu there are certain expectations towards those in the English version lol.

[3yowi3]

Happy Birthday Yoosung!

Happy Birthday again and again!! You are the hero who led me to this game and an angel fallen from the sky😙. I can still clearly remember how hard I sobbed and wailed in your ending seremony. It was the most gratuitous moment in my life at that time when I was just introduced to Mystic Messenger. Considering Mystic Messenger as my very first otome game(among the mainstreams actually.. it's not my first first) Yoosung's route gave me successive emotional outbursts but most of all provided an escape hole from the reality. It was a healing moment to look at Yoosung's cute chatteries and waiting for him to send me selfies! Although I assume many a person had to deal with Yoosung's franatic fan-boying of Rika... I was blind with love towards him that I could accomodate most of the blunders. I usually regard MC as a third-person in otome game, but when I was going through Yoosung, I can assert that I was in the full empathetic stage with MC. I was bemoaning like "Please someone save this poor child!!!" I think I cried for a week after reaching his ending. And then in order to escape from the ending aftermath I started on 707's route and swoop.... my bias changed...(oops😶) But anyways his route is still one of my favorites so I feel sad that he doesn't win much popularity.

I left a question in the QnA survey but it was so long time ago that I don't remember what I wrote... I think it was about his hair.. like don't you have to repeatedly dye your hair on the top.

I hope Cheritz will announce a new DLC at any moment. Another after ending if possible lol.

[3yowi3]

I'm studying my native language for uni entrance test and it just beats my brain... I never properly learned my native language due to circumstantial reasons. I lived overseas ever since I was born and I was more exposed to foreign languages in my surroundings. My mother tongue is just as those any other foreign languages to me.

The good thing is that the uni counts English as well and that occupies 60%of the test. But still the remaining 40% I have to prove myself with my native language. The grammar just kills me!!! I guarantee that English, no matter where u r from, is the easiest language to acquire! The guy who made my native language was a genius but not genius enough to give mercy to 21 century students!!

[3yowi3]

Well it shouldn't be a surprise now that Cheritz is trying to suck our wallets in variety of methods... but wala never expected V's after story to be this expensive^-T

According to my acquaintance, V's After Ending Story disentangles more about Rika rather than illustrating the happy-ever-after or lovy-dovy of MC and V. Hello~ need some sweets here?

So I didn't bother to skip this DLC along with Rika's personal episode. Neither Rika nor V is in my favs list anyways. I don't know why but for some reason I feel like Cheritz is trying to justify Rika's actions and remedy her impression from a witch to an angel, buttressed with philosophical ideas.

Thus I'm saving my hourglasses for Seran's after ending and hope it wouldn't be dissapointing as this one!!!!

[3yowi3]

Hello! I read your impression post about the mystic messenger collab cafe. Thank you for sharing. It's good to know about the food and just how much tempting merch is crammed in there. I think the bonds between Koreans and foreigners that have arisen from this game are truly beautiful! I did want to give one piece of advice. In America we usually refer to those huge statues of the characters as "standees". (Sometimes "cardboard cutouts", but these ones seem to not be cardboard.) Have a nice day!

Hi there:) I want to thank you for reading my post. The purpose was to let people who cannot visit this cafe know how things were managed in there to appease their curiosities. I actually have more details that I should include but at the time I typed this posting I was a bit lazy that I left out some fun parts^^;(fun for me at least). I'm planning to include them later with some more pics so you can check up on the update if you prefer. I also appreciate your comment about the bondage. Even now the market share in the otome field is mostly occupied by Japanese otome companies, and I hardly expect any other countries to reverse the pace in this period. Above that, Mystic Messenger succeeded on not only reaching the pinnacle, but also creating an atmospher that people from all kinds of nation to share their interest about otome or even open their eyes to this genre(at least I got that impression). It's hard to find a person with the same interest in my surroundings and not all people are fond of this sort of genre, so I seek for those people, especially foreigners, online and Mystic Messenger is sure the best topic^-^ And thanx for telling me the exact term for calling those "statues." I heard of that term at some point in my life but couldn't remember when I was posting. Hope you have a nice day!

[3yowi3]

My Impression of Mystic Messenger Collaboration Cafe

This was like... right in the day of New Year. So yeah like January 1st? I actually have another blog that I keep my postings so I tend to procrastinate in tumblr. I know that I need to keep on with my updates but it's so hard to recall the same content and type it using the same sense.

So to dive into the point, yeah I provide that you grasped the main point of this post by its title:) I went to the Mystic Messenger collaboration cafe. I've always been envy of the otome cafes in the huge island next to my country. So I consider MM collaboration cafe has a greater meaning to the ones who love Japanese otome. Furthermore, I never expected to visit this kind of event without booking a plain ticket lol.

The photo above displays my dish and my friend's dish :3 I have a fun episode to tell actually. The friend whom I am talking about is actually someone I met right on that day when I visited the cafe. She was a foreigner so she seemed to have trouble communicating with the saleslady. After that I kind of dragged her along with me haha. At this part I apologize in prior because I'm about to grumble over some stuff here. I'm still not sure if it was my lack of information or the shop's carelessness but we were pretty much befuddled by the unorganized system. I clearly remember the lady telling me that we should get a note that indicates our turn. But surprisingly everybody but me and my friend were holding the note. W..o.w.. so I had to work out with the lady once more to let us get into the line. I do remember reading about first served basis in the official website but they never informed about the specific system.

Well yeah I really don wanna talk more about it. Period.

So back to track about the fun part. We went in and were just smiling like people without face muscles^-----^ My bias is 707 and my friend is Zen. I can't deny that the food was expensive in contradiction to the quality but I put a meaning to the memories and the fact that I enjoyed enough of the atmosphere at least. The feeling that you are surrounded with the elements that compose your life-long genre!

Unfortunately I couldn't buy any of these cuz I'm poor. When was the last time I felt weight on my purse...^-T I didn't include the image in the posting but there were also VIP and Special Belivers packages. I was actually aiming for the latter but I had to suppress my passion due to my allowance. I can order them online anyways so it was easy to shrug off my lingering attachment.

These are... statues? I'm not really sure how to call them. There were some people who took selfies in front of them but for me that required too much boldness... I mean I'm not an Instagram star..*shrug*

Overall the day was productive :) To tell the truth this day was more memorable for me as a day of new encounterance. Even if at that time we couldn't get into the cafe, I met someone who I could frankly share my interest and this is something I regard more valuable than the cafe itself. I believe a new connection could bring more pleasant surprises to life:)

Finally Got My Own Ayakashi Gohan

I received the parcel today!

The one I posted first was the fandisk and this one is the original.

Came back from work and posting it now.

I'm economically broke but spiritually full Lol.

I'm not sure whether there's still stock left in Honeyshop and AliceNet but please hurry if you are looking for Ayakashi Gohan!

I made the wrong choice of biding it in Japan Auction and was charged for primium cost...Including shipping fee? Don't mention it.

I suppose you would prefer a brand new merchandise if you have to pay the same price.

However....I'm happy yay.

The left is my Honey Bee collection.

I'm not sure whether I will add more games to it. The ones I'm missing are Dynamic Chord series and Starry☆Sky series. The former I heard words about it and it really makes me ponder because not all words were amicable. The latter I don't have the ardent desire for it. And well of course there are more Honey Bee published games but it's too late now haha.. Oh I almost forgot about Blackish House side a. I only have side z and the reason I don't possess the complete series is simply because there's no fish I want to hook in side a. But now since some things changed... I really want to try side a as well! I am yearning for my sweet Haruma!!!

I think I'll be able to play Re:Birthday Song next week if fast? Unless I change my mind to be a deliberate student lol.
