Why the fuck are you complaining about the writing of this game? Do you have fucking mental problems? If you want good writing, search for titles famous for that. Not play Go!Go!Nippon expecting any sort of quality, aside of a small title made to get to know a few things about Japan. Don't complain about burning your head if you stick it inside an acid barrel.

The writing and dialogue of murasama is of a level significantly higher than that which can be achieved in any language besides Japanese. It's just not possible to do the translation justice, especially into such a simple and straightforward language like English, which doesn't have to capacity to express the same things in the Japanese version. For this reason I am studying Japanese and wearing my kimono around town every day so that soon I will become Japanese and finally be able to appreciate this masterfully written work of art and stunning storytelling.

>For example, he doesn't know that the convenience store was invented in Texas in 1927 and the idea that they don't exist outside of Japan, who didn't have them before the '80s, is just retarded beyond belief.

BTW, this is a really awesome manga, even if it is just about the business of opening up 7-11 franchises in Japan.

A while back when China had those anti-Japanese riots, the 7-11s there were targeted, because they even thought 7-11 was a Japanese company.

I was actually really interested in this game for its dual language. But mangagamer were cheap and skipped voices, and my interest died.

I mean, it is perfect language practice when you have both languages AND voice. Without voice you better hope every single kanji has furigana or you are screwed until you are good at Japanese already.

Started the game yesterday and finished the route with Makoto. For the price i bought it i find it ok, i enjoyed it, especially the historical references & hints for tourists. Story with girl(s) was good enough for me.

Will do the other route later.
