Hi ! Is there any more of “more “ stories left to be translated for masquerade kiss ? I’m curious to know about them ! ( although the current stories aren’t being updated any faster haha )

Hi!

I didn't check but there weren't a lot of missing MORE stories last time I did.

If we are missing some, then only 1 or 2 since we got most of them.

Thank you for the ask!

Hi, weird question about Zack Thompson (Kazuomi's adoptive dad) from Masquerade kiss. But this has been in my mind for a while. What is his hair colour ? I assumed it was platinum or dark blonde, but someone said his hair is grey. I dont think he is THAT old, i think he looks late 50s or early 60s, would hair turn fully white by then? However his eyes seem like the same colour as his hair??

This has become a conundrum 🤣

Hi nonny!

Zack's hair color is greyish/white. I would believe he used to have brown hair in the past, or black based on his grey strands.

Zack is old, it's not known how old exactly, but he's definitely sitting between 50 and maybe early 60s like you said. I would personally say early 60s, and yes, people that age usually have grey or white hair by then 😊

Hair doesn't turn fully white when you become old depending on people's original hair color. It depends on whether you where a blondie or a dark haired person as well as other things I probably don't know about. You can also start having white or grey strands very early on in your life, when you're still young, depending on the person. White hair isn't only linked to age.

Anyway, Zack has grey and white hair, and seems to have brown eyes 🤣

Hi (:

Hopefully it is ok to ask you even though it is not related to MK/Ikemen/HLITF.

How does the leading man awards work? based on past years, is it useful to help determine new releases or just a popularity contest? Helpful if you could provide some insights if you have any. I am quite clueless about how it works.

I started reading last yr when the vote ended so i only saw the ranking. But the top 5 last yr Karno, Zyglavis, Eisuke, Minoru, Kasumi, don't seem to have any updates for 2 years plus or their story ended alr.

I read your previous replies about localisation being slow so I don't know if those people stories are still updating or not because i am unsure which is the main app? i only know Love 365? 🥶

Thank you for taking the time to read and answer my questions.

Hi nonny!

I'm very very sorry for such a late answer. I haven't been doing well lately and have to take some time off, but I at least want to answer this since it's been sitting in my asks for so long. Again, I'm so sorry!

First of all you can definitely ask about literally anything, I really don't mind. It's just that I have more knowledge in these specific games but I love to chat or help out with other things as much as I can.

If I had to be truthful, the elections are simply "popularity" contests where the winners get different prizes. It often leads to the big winners getting some special stories, but it doesn't mean they will have a new route especially if the winning character has a route that's already concluded.

I find that elections are not worth anyone's money or time because a lot of people will pour an indecent amount of money into their favorite character (and they have every right to do so), but the prizes are not worth the cost nor the risk of someone bidding higher on someone else last minute.

Sadly, elections don't really represent well who is more popular anymore when whales (people who spend a lot of money) participate because a lot of times, actual popular characters fall behind in the ranking, or brand new characters are on top simply because they're new. Popularity isn't well represented when money is involved.

There's also a JP player who spends for Karno in the English app (Love365) so he can win over there, so it doesn't represent actual international players' taste. The main app is the Japanese one, btw!

Anyway, no the elections' prizes don't lead to these characters getting more BIG content like an actual route and so on. It only means maybe a special story or art of some sort, which is honestly very cool, but not worth the amount of money people pour into them, in all honesty 😅

That's only my opinion, and people are free to spend their money however they decide of course! But elections really are just a good way for Voltage to make money while people think they can get their character to be recognised through a lot of effort 😅

Thank you for the ask!
