Along with the following week and a half, probably

Reserved time!

Of course, the big question is are us inferior gaijin allowed to play it without a patch this time?

Wait what?

English translation group? How is that even possible? Is that true somehow?!?

There exists an English translation for the demo (I believe there is a link somewhere earlier in this thread). Naturally, they haven't translated the whole game yet, given its... ah... state of existence.

Ah, that makes a lot more sense xD

Glad to hear people have translated the demo though, would it be evil for me to torrent it? D: Also, is there any link to their homepage or anything you know of? I wonder if they plan on doing the full game when released.

Months later and we finally have a release date, but still no information on the seiyuu?

C'mon Key, you don't have to be that scared to tell us that you picked 18+ seiyuu again for 'contingency' purposes.

Rhapsody · 2010-10-30, 19:58

So was that translation that was linked earlier in this thread an actual patch that can be applied to the trial? Or was it just translations of the script that can only be viewed?

boggart · 2010-10-30, 20:19

Looks like translations at the moment. I know there is a Chinese patch out somewhere...

kyosak · 2010-10-31, 16:54

No one mentioned it here but most of the CV cast has been released~
Some that I felt worth mentioning:

Saitou Chiwa as Kotori
- Man she's got a wide range of roles... I can never recognize her just by the voice. Awesome seiyuu.

KitaEri as Akane
- Most people already guessed this one. Good job.

Suzuki Keiko as Shizuru
- CV for Haruka and Kanata in LB. I know one person guessed this in the thread way back, good job!

EDIT: You guys still think they will release a 18+ version later? Hmm, I'd be really surprised if it happened just because of Kotori and Akane's VAs... They seem too mainstream to be doing eroge...

boggart · 2010-10-31, 18:38

Hmmm I didn't even realise their website had updated the Characters section...

**Klashikari** · 2010-10-31, 18:55

There is seriously no way for Saitou or Kitamura to work in an Eroge... unless they coincidentally start this kind of vocation all of a sudden

winkel · 2010-11-01, 19:07

Well at least now it's confirmed that they have normal seiyuu for the all-ages version.

And honestly, that makes sense. As Key games are more than just the games, spawning into media mix projects, it's much better to use known seiyuu that can be advertised and used in various functions. I bet they learned their lesson after the fiasco with Little Busters and locking themselves into seiyuu they can't fully use.

That being said, it still doesn't preclude an 18+ version with a different cast voicing the same characters. It's been done before (Tomoyo After?), and it's not uncommon as far as the industry goes. So I still stand by my previous points. Time will tell.

The only different now is I'll probably get the all-ages version in support of the seiyuu I like. KitaEri~

Is that true? I can't really picture Key making this move... Can't say I support it either.

**Klashikari** · 2010-11-01, 19:48

I can't consider Tomoyo After as an example worthy to be a "rule" especially it was Maeda's fancy to make that spin off. Furthermore, it involves only 1 voice change, not a -full- cast.
LB situation was drastically different: it was planned far ahead with eroge seiyuu.

...We already discussed about that ad nauseam already. Let's move on.

Your arguement previously against a voice cast change was because fans would be upset with the new voices after getting used to the old ones, no? One change versus a few more (only the girls with routes, obviously, so maybe 4?) won't make that much of a difference I don't think?

**Klashikari** · 2010-11-01, 20:30

...why are you actually comparing both arguments whereas their context has just nothing to do with each other? TA was the only one and first of their works to have a change of voice (which seems to be rather a proof they can do anytime for you), whereas this work was vastly minor and a spinoff to begin with.
Revisiting the same mainstream game with different voice actress is a complete different matter.

And considering the length of an heroine route (which can range between 2-7 hours), I fail to see how 4-5 heroines voices changed compared to only 1 isn't that much of a difference, especially it would also factor the main route.

Seriously, let's just drop this. It isn't like it will change the possibility despite no hint whatsoever for Rewrite has appeared. And should KEY do that, it isn't like it will have any impact on the original release so.

Rhapsody · 2010-11-01, 23:53

I don't think Key would want to pay new VAs to reread whole routes that they've already had someone else voice with some additional new scenes just to make an eroge version. Just doesn't seem very cost efficient considering the amount of text.

Tomoyo After was fine since that was a whole new game.

Highly doubt they'd be releasing a 18+ version of Rewrite seeing as they've said time and time again that it will only be an all-ages VN.

It's happened before (*cough*LittleBusters!*cough*).

The question basically boils down to whether this is going to be like CLANNAD (spinoff eroge; doubtful), Little Busters! (18+ version with extra content released later; less doubtful), or neither (nothing, extra content not 18+...).
