Can I rant?

GGGAAAAHHHH!!!

Why are there so many Japanese VNs!? I can see a lot of good ones but it's in Japanese. I can't read Japanese! I even saw a VN with a loli in it but it's in - you guessed it - Japanese. I'm so frustrated looking at the lot of Japanese VNs that I am more than willing to try.

God help me!

I know, right. Everyone knows they're made in America. Why the bloody hell would the writers use Japanese?!

 

[WsE]

Yeah. It makes no sense.

it's a tough world.. why not learn the language? and if you dont wanna, why not use a (crappy) translation program?

hmmm ith + atlas? bad... sooo bad...

 

[Shir0]

yeah, but better than nothing, cant really complain, yadda yadda

Go ahead and buy a kanji dictionary. Slow progress but hey, you get to play the VN and learn a new language at the same time.

 

[paul11686]

Nice suggestion but I'm barely able to keep up with hiragana much less kanji. Besides, reading the VN using a dictionary would be more of a pain rather than enjoyable. I could try, though but I'm pretty sure that I won't.

Hmm well if you manage to learn japanese in the process than future reading will be much smoother

 

[thecoins]

[Ghost Kitty~]

Hmm guide? The translator one?

Japanese visual novels (eroge specifically) are the best
