Minatsu and Yume have remixed themes of Miharu and Nemu...heck, they didn't even bother making an effort to cover up Minatsu's. >>;

Well, D.C. II is all about "the remix" in nearly every way, but that's not very surprising given, you know, the title, the theme, the timeline, etc... As a story, though, I think they've definitely trumped the first one. Even the remixed characters I find more interesting than the originals in a lot of ways. So, I guess what I'm trying to say, AvatarST, is...

Of course I will give her a chance, relentless. And yes - I admit I can be quite unreasonable (not "slighty") and a bit of a broken record too; no need to be nice, no problems there either.

Yume does seem more likable, anyway. And for the record, "niisan" was never a bother to me, unlike to others.

Sailor Enlil · 2006-06-28, 18:22

Hehe well, my opinion of the Asakura sisters kinda changed from playing DC2 compared to the demo version. At first I thought Yume would be quite a b**ch and favored Otome. But in playing DC2, I actually found Yume kinda more likable if you get past her exterior attitude (I guess in the same way I got to like Mako in the first DC games). On the other hand, while Otome is generally friendlier, I found something kinda off about her (that is, before going through her path), and perhaps that had something to do with the sibling problem and what went down during her path.

Something else I began thinking about

AvatarST · 2006-06-28, 18:31

Well, I adored Mako, personally, despite her temper. It wasn't really that side of Nemu that is somewhat similar to Mako's that put me off her either, it was more her selfishness/posessiveness. So it's nice to hear you liked Yume. I kinda have high hopes on her too since she seemed like Nemu done right.

But being put off Otome? Mm...that might be hard for me. She seems to be really likable.

Sailor Enlil · 2006-06-29, 20:43

Well come to think of it, Otome was likeable at first, but in a way it kinda got creepy (like she was getting too friendly), perhaps to a degree a milder version of Sakura's obsession with Junichi back in the first game/anime (for which reason I couldn't stand her back then). Which also leads me to this theory about Otome's route (note it's just a theory, based on ideas from DC first season)

Spoiler:

AvatarST · 2006-06-29, 20:49

Ahh. That explains things, it definitely could put off some people, maybe myself even.

Regarding Sakura, I always liked her though, especially what she did at the end. Nemu was my enemy.

In the game, wasn't Nemu's own wish also what was killing her though? I'm a bit clueless about that, but hadn't she wished to feel everything Jyunichi feels? And she already had a weak constitution, so...

Maybe more information will be revealed in the DC route? I'm really curious about that. I wonder if they'll reveal any information about what happened with Nemu, Kotori, Mako and the others in that route too. Perhaps Sakura knows...

MeganeShounen · 2006-07-02, 10:09

Newbie coming through...

If it's alright, I'm just going to ask some questions about the game, since I guess this is the right place to ask.

1) I managed to watch Nanaka's promo vid, and I wondered what was the title for the song being played. I know it's not Mabushikute Mienai, so I was very curious...

2) Akane's one of the winnable heroines, right? Any lowdown on her plot? (Power info would also be nice.)

3) Has there been any reports of DCII character CD singles? I'm itchin' to find one for Nanaka.

(Yeah, I'm a Nanaka fan. Happy~)

AFAIK, she isn't. Otome, Yume, Nanaka, Koko, Minatsu and Anzu are the "winnable" heroines. There's one additional DC route I know nothing about, but it appears to be Sakura centric...

Well good for you. Nanaka's not bad at all, in fact I like her better than Kotori

Save some of that for D.C.P.S./P.C. II~! Sad because it's (almost definitely) true, and because Circus knows we'll probably buy it, even though it's blatant merchandising.

At least this time, the "extra characters" play a role in the plot to begin with, as opposed to being added as an afterthought.

WHAAA-T? Darn... and I was looking forward to seeing her. Ever since hearing her voice samples on the official site and seeing her extremely gorgeous and large....

....hairdo, she never vanished from my memories...

Well, along with Nanaka.

Anyway, any news on the D.C. II songs? Anyone?

*crosses fingers for a possible D.C.S.S II and fires up Mabushikute Mienai once more*

Village Idiot · 2006-07-03, 00:05

Bet you $5 Akane becomes winnable in the PS2 port.

bluemist · 2006-07-03, 00:17

Akane is awesome. I liked her part in the Nanaka route. I normally don't like well... 'endowed' bishoujos but she's an exception.

I also want Iincho to be winnable in the PS2 port too. Megane girl FTW.

(I still can't figure out why she's the only 'girl' in class who calls the player on first-name basis [Sakurai], when everyone else calls him Yoshiyuki/Yoshiyuki-kun. Is it just because she's authority?)

She doesn't call him on a first-name basis. Yoshiyuki IS his first name; Sakurai is his last name, which means she's actually addressing him more formally (because she *is* authority).

Whoa! You mean I actually got EVERYTHING in reverse!?! I stand corrected, thank you so much for clearing that up!

I'm gonna go edit my Nanaka write-up now. It should be Yoshiyuki instead of Sakurai.

Akane fills the role of "Caring Onee-chan" in the classroom very well...perhaps too well. >>;

Yep, this is pretty much blasphemy. You better not proclaim this idea anywhere outside of this thread. ;)

On another matter, her stature is somewhat weird, looking up her three sizes I see where the problem lies within. Nowhere comparable to our goddess Tama-nee, who's just perfect. :D

Grandpa Junichi somehow got wind of this and told Otome she shouldn't do that and ordered her to kill the tree, which got her devastated, because she was afraid that would mean Yoshiyuki's feelings for her would disappear as a result.
