I hope this letter finds you. 7(+1) letters sent between Kikuchi Ryou & Suou Keito A MAMIYA fanzine

I made a keiryou-flavored mini-zine depicting their correspondence (One of the letters is adapted from the one in the DDD prologue, so watch out for spoilers)! You can print it out and fold it yourself!! Like so:

Printable PDF here! It's sized for A4 paper but scales well for letter too (you'll have to trim the edges). Instructions for folding here.

[Piofiore + Café Enchanté] Contacting Aksys about Recent Releases + Future of Otome Games

First of all, I’m sorry that it’s not something A3-related.

Some of you who are fans of otome games have probably realized that the games released by Aksys this year have been riddled with errors, so much that not a few could not enjoy them that much due to this.

Following the mess that is Collar x Malice: Unlimited, which has more than 600+ errors, we were hoping that the remaining releases (Piofiore: Fated Memories, Cafe Enchante) would make up for it. Unfortunately, while both titles did not have as many mistakes as CxM:U, it still racked up more than 100 errors, including text breaks, missing words and mistranslation.

Considering the price the players had to pay to buy these games, that is simply unacceptable. It is beyond disappointing and frustrating to see the games we all looked forward to were treated with little care.

This time, me and four other friends have compiled some examples of these errors into a document and wrote a statement about the current state of their recent releases that you can find here. We ask that you read this document, send the link to the document to Aksys through their website, and request that there needs to be more care put into this genre.

We’re not demanding them to make patches for Piofiore and Cafe Enchante, since it will most likely cost money and etc. All we want to is for them to handle their future releases, otome games in particular, with more care.

Thank you for reading until the end! We sincerely hope Aksys’ future releases will be much better than this year’s so that we all can enjoy the games to the fullest.

Reblogs are much appreciated!!

In May of 2012, I discovered my first dating sim, Idol Days by Pacthesis. That July, I posted my first blog post here! That led to a lifelong love and a wonderful eight years of otome and tumblr! With so many other otome blogs out there, I’ve sometimes wondered if maybe it was time to throw in the towel, but I truly love sharing stuff here. And a large part of that is because of the love and support I’ve received over the years. I can’t express just how much that has meant and continues to me to me! Thank you to everyone for an amazing eight years here! To show my appreciation, I’m doing a follower giveaway!

Archive.org is facing a lawsuit

tldr: the Internet Archive/WayBack Machine is super important in term of archived content, billions of stuff are on there, and with the current event happening in the world like stated above,without this tool, it will be hard to properly document what took place. It will be easy for certain people to rewrite history. Dont let them.

DONATE HERE (post dont get much exposure with working links sorry)

IF YOU CANT DONATE THEN PLEASE SPREAD THE INFO

On twitter,tumblr,facebook,heck,anywhere you want,this needs to be talked about !

they’re being sued due to putting together an “emergency library”, essentially, in the wake of schools and libraries closing due to covid-19.

you can read about it in a few places. here’s one article on the subject, but there’s plenty to be found.

of these four, three of them are considered the “big 5″ in publishing (penguin randomhouse, hachette, and harpercollins.) getting a book published with one of the big 5 is a coup, and they’re also known as the publishing powerhouses. the other one mentioned, john wiley and sons is still a multinational publishing giant known for its academic publications.

this is all to say that there’s no feasible way they’re being hurt by archive.org’s emergency library. these are some of the biggest publishing houses in the world. this depraved action is fueled only by greed, and it’s detestable.
