Saki stuff is incredibly scarce in Akihabara at the time I was visiting which is June 2016. Probably because Saki aired something like 2 years ago and is never really mainstream. I went and looked at many stores and I only found a single Saki poster for my effort. If they have Saki stuff, its not on display so it would probably be good to speak a bit of Japanese? lol

I did see some Rika figurines in Akihabara though so going there for that might be more fruitful. And if you like lovelive, you'll drown at the amount of stuff around.

I recommend going to Book off while there as well. It has a lot of retro games and cheap mangas. Unfortunately, its in Japanese (I still bought a few even if I can't read it.)

Also, unless you're in collecting pristine mint condition stuff. Going second hand and looking at the junk pile will allow you to get dirt cheap collectibles and figurines. ( I don't want the boxes anyway. My luggage weight limit is already maxed with all the things I bought. ^^)

We do. QwQ I'm sadly resorting to 4ch now that the thread is closed sobs. I'm slowly working on translating some kataribanashi-hen since i got my physical copies in the mail now.

Aww, the Higu thread is closed now. QwQ

Ooh, I love that chapter so much. I need to reread the manga. I never read Utsutsukowashi before, I should... though as you said it is unfinished.

That sounds awesome!

Nice! I would love to help with the manga translations, but I can only manage with furigana. sobs. Need to stop hating Kanji so much, haha. Ooooh, can't wait for the Jan playthrough, I've only really seen the punishment cutscenes and the OP of course. Wow, such dedication~ Is this the same game from years ago? O:

Hey! Long time no talk Daisu~ How are you?

Sure, let me know when it's done. I wanted to make a doujinshi myself, so I think it's really cool you're putting the effort into it.

I used to draw a lot, but now it feels like work is taking up so much of my mental energy. The urge of creative expression can only be buried so long, though! It reminds me of the Ryukishi07 quote: "Everyone wants to create something, but the problem is what that is.”

Rare indeed. I was actually visiting New York City this weekend, and while visiting the Japanese bookstores, I had the sobering thought of "there hasn't been new merchandise fin years for my favorite franchises." I probably should be getting into the new hotness, but nah, might as well keep spreading the When They Cry gospel.

Well, it will be a fanfic storyline with some branches and choices which will define your ending, there will be one for each character as you'll pair up with them in the end and then they'll be the perfect ending where nobody dies much like the final arc. I plan to include plot points from various arcs throughout the game such as Satoko's uncle, Shion and Mion rivalry like in wantanagashi, giving you multiple choices on how to deal with each of them. All throughout the game the choices you make will add points into the characters much like a dating sim would and you get your ending, except the special ending which would be condition based.

I'll hold off on the details about the story as it is fanfiction territory, I wonder if that would put people off as you do play as Keiichi, but not the Keiichi we know as something plot related happened to him a week prior to the beginning of the game. What I will say is that there's a week missing from his memory, and from that point on he starts to have less and less control over his own body and actions, only a viewer to events from his own eyes. I won't say anymore as I want there to be a mystery, granted though this is all planned but I'll get around to organising and writing the story after I set up all the assests in visual novelty, the engine I'm using.
