I can't tell the difference yet.
I'm not even half way. I aim to get "all complete". When it's done, everyone will congratulate Junichi in his room. It's a long way to go. The visual novel is different from the PS2/PSP story. It's more like fan work from the official source. Tech Gian story events are comparatively few. In EX5, Junichi is like a different person. Spoiler:

So, I'm playing the game right now and I'm really enjoying it despite not understanding 99% of the dialogue.
Could anyone explain what's going on when you're talking to one of the girls and you suddenly have to select images that appear at the bottom of the screen? I suppose they are topics you can talk about? Is there any strategy to this or do you just have to guess and hope for the best? I'm doing very well and it's not that hard, but I was wondering if there is some way to tell which option you have to choose next. |

Yeah, I was always confused about Pharoah's curse in one aspect of Amagami: when you go out with Tsukasa and both of you get attacked by Pharaoh, Tsukasa becomes a child version of herself and Junichi gets turned into a frog. I know this transformation process is related to what the various heroines wish for (Ai wants to become Junichi's favourite thing, so she becomes ramen, Kaoru wants to become Junichi's equal, so she turns into a male version of herself, etc.), but Tsukasa becoming a child and Junichi becoming a frog seems incredibly odd.

//www36.atwiki.jp/amagami/ The image order is from left to right...up to down. Each image represents one conversation topic. 1. Christmas tree-> general discussion 2. Flash card -> study 3. P.E. cloth -> sports 4. Cell phone -> entertainment 5. Soup -> food 6. Makeup accessory -> fashion 7. Love letter -> Romance 8. Space shuttle -> Ecchi 9. Teddy bear -> Action 10. Jewelry -> Attack The option 10 is only used if the girl's feeling level about you is reaching the peak. So, you can trigger events, such as kissing belly, kissing stomach, putting hands in the skirt's pocket, being feed by snack, etc. Otherwise, the girl will end the conversation and leave on the spot. The system is different from other dating game, such as Love Plus. Well, you can counter that Kimikiss and True Love Story are similar. The typical dating game raises flags by building up your own attributes, such as physical fitness, academic standing, work experience, etc. The higher attributes raise girls' feeling about you. This system raises girl's feeling by conversation and events. So, you may hear some gamers commenting that Junichi is a smooth talker. Some conversation is ported to anime. In anime, Tsukasa and Junichi were locked in the storage room. In the room, they talked about their favorite music genre and hobbies. The information was taken from the game's conversation mode. I thought the explanation could be better understood with the pictures. However, my scanner is acting on me. I use Nanasaki Ai's route as an example. I use her route because high level conversational skill is MUST to complete her route. She didn't like Junich(you) at first. You have to boost her feeling in the short period of time. Else, her route go straight into the game over path. Each girl's feeling about you is divided into ladder system. Each ladder represents a time period and a girl's feeling. Your choice of conversational topic is depended on the ladder. During the conversation, your answer is also depended on the girl's emotion. If the girl's emotion is high, you choose the images from row Hi. If the girl's emotion is medium, you choose the images from row Mid. If the girl's emotion is Low, you choose the images from row Low.

My wildest guess is that Junichi is playing the role of "frog prince". According to Brothers Grimm, a prince throws a frog to the wall. It breaks the curse and changes frog back to a prince. In the haunted house, the child Tsukasa throws a frog into the air and catches him. She thinks he can jump. When the frog dropped to the ground, he changed back to Junichi.

Another odd (or rather, unexplained in the anime) element is how Tsukasa doesn't like her elder sister Yukari much. You can see a video with her elder sister here. What does the game say about her sister, then? Is Aiko Igarashi (Yukari's seiyuu) going to get some nice roles in the future? I hear Hibiki got her own route in a fandisc that was sent along with some issues of Tech Gian. Any chance that could get animated? What is Enterbrain making next? If it's a ren'ai game, is it going to be all ages or 18+? |

With the upcoming PSVita port/add-on Photo Kano Kiss on April 25th, and also with tv anime adaptation along the way starting April. And since it's originally developed for PSP, it's all ages (well, not really, it got CERO C rating, so it's for 15+ but still SFW )

It's love sim with photo session feature, just the title suggested. I only play very few of love sim but I did play Love Plus, so I can say it's different from Love Plus. I wrote a review of the game on my blog, if you interested. http://bakanki.blogspot.com/2012/08/...roduction.html As for the characters, their 'type' is quite similar to Amagami's heroines. I can guarantee if the anime is aired (so more people have access to know the story) there will be people who says, "Ah, [insert PK heroine name here] is [insert Amagami heroine name here] only she is [insert the difference here]" or something like that I also wrote heroines summary if you interested. http://bakanki.blogspot.com/2012/09/...s-summary.html

Your video link is referring to Tsukasa's sick event. It is shown in the anime. Basically, Tsukasa is absence from the school. You wants to visit her, but you don't know her where about. Then, you meets Yukari. Yukari leads you to Tuskasa's room. Yukari calls Tsukasa. Tusakasa pretends to sleep. After Yukari leaves the room, Tsukasa gets up and find you around her. She is embarrassed. She is ill, and she thanks you for visiting her. In another event, Tsuaksa tells you she can't get the good sleep. Because a dog keeps barking in her neighborhood, it keeps her awake. You knows it is Yukari's doing. Yukari is playing with a dog. She tries to feed food to a dog. You wonder if Yukari is out of her mind. I remember the food is chocolate, because the food is poisonous to the dog. I think Yukari is an interesting person. She has Haruka's personality and Hibiki's brain. Whether sports or study, she is the best in town. Her denpa personality can be dangerous once awhile. Too bad, she is only a supporting character. Someone noticed her character design is inherits from a True Love Story girl(even it's a different name). Technically, she has her own story. Hibiki's route is alright. I find Maya's route more interesting. Maya is the first Ms. Santa winner! She plays a big part in the school founder's festival history. I don't think the studio has any interest yet. Enterbrain's main business is publishing. They publish magazines and novels. The game making is their part time job. Amagami is programmed by Bits Laboratory. The art director works for GameCRAB now.

Enterbrain's parent company went through a major re-org. So, they are still under one big family. From the illustrator's site:
