Ah, I see. If only those side books and Ataraxia translated.

Speaking of Ataraxia, I read that it's a sequel but it looks like it's more of an alternate story or something?

The art isn't as good, which can get kinda distracting if you've played FSN first (everything looks similar, but kinda off), but it's not a huge deal.

And it's widely considered that each of the FSN girls is based traits from one or two of the Tsukihime girls, so you're kind of getting to see the 'prototypes', which is fascinating.
Yeah, I may play it. I am going to do Ever17 first though.

I'm not entirely sure that's any more true of Tsukihime than of FSN, really. I mean, HF is certainly pretty damn horrific, especially if you take the time to think about the sort of things that have been done to Sakura over the last eleven years....
Exactly. That's why I raged so much. I loved Sakura so much. She is the sweetest character and since I played with the voice patch, she sounded even more innocent and sweet. And for them to do that to her, ugh. I have no problem with her turning into a bad guy, it's just what they did to her in the past was horrible.
