Beneath the scorching sun of midsummer, a pampered, aloof sort of girl declared that there are four windows through which to view a person.
She was not the only one by his side, for he had had a wounded girl thrust upon him - a wounded girl who could not help but depend upon him, as the girl he had known for so long once had.
Now, however, that old friend of his vanishes in the dead of night to prowl where an ordinary girl should not.
The blue sky of the stadium and the filth of the city streets spread out before him; unsustainable aspirations and an unsustainable love beset him.
What in the world is he thinking as he gazes at their profiles?

Thanks for this Admin. Also thanks to the Amaterasu translation team.
Oh, also... If anyone else has been following Yandere's 'Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai!' translation they released Momoyo's route patch.
-.-
But what extent should "it be determined as NTR" depends on how much you emphases with the characters in the VN.
I guess the person who took away the NTR either sees that NTR is as a subset of prostitution, or the NTR is basically overwhelmed by other more serious interactions between the characters.
Anything more will be considered spoilers.
Most people who hate NTR (like me) should not be getting butt-hurt over this.
seeing from what earlier posted, it supposedly has ntr stuff, and i really dislike that (family project has that somewhat, for an arc, and i stopped reading it when it happened lol)
so...i think ill most likely get a profile,but it'll be on my to read list i guess
Thanks admin.
I'll play through real quick to see if there are any actual NTR scenes... I kinda feel bad about saying it has NTR without actual proof. If there really is no NTR I'll commit seppuku for having made the mistake about eroge. Most mistakes are tolerable but not ones involving eroge...
SPOILER
In Crescendo case the girl was selling herself before she met the protagonist. Once she started going out with him, she stopped, but one of old "clients" didn't take "no" for an answer, abducted her and gang-raped, throwing the money she usually charged on her after they were done.
This scene (and her whole arc) was very strong, but without it the game would have much more impact - it's arguably the most remembered scene in the game.
the word in my mind is tragedy
it's not an act out of jealousy but just to release/forget their guilt and pain
People would just lump the genre into "Tragedy", but I think Jealousy, Revenge, "Self-destroy" are similar good themes that can be associated with that specific NTR context.
Like a classic ntr situation is finding a random guy with no redeming qualities is having sex with your woman.
"am i not better than him?! am i worse than garbage!?"
"how dare she betray me, but i cant live without her, but she is no longer mine, she is gone and now another person altogether.."
these are staple feelings of a despair NTR. in my opinion, if the end result of the rape or cheating doesnt evoke strong emotions its not worthy of being called NTR. to give a reference lets say there a sex scene between sex friends, they are having sex but in this case they dont love eachother so the word love plays no part in this situation,in NTR lets say your girlfriend has sex with differnt partners, but at the end of the day shes still with you (this happens in RL anyway) so less NTR effect gets generated.
sorry i am very wordy arent i
Any help would be nice...
The sudden change at that part was abit weird though.
NTR is more like a frustration of being played with your feelings (in love relationship) of having your lover or potential lover stolen.
Netorare does not have to be consensual that's why we have the Netorare Types of A, B and C - they are ranked by the level of consensus.
But the center of focus is still a frustration of being cheated, it doesn't mean that you had to be cheated, just feel like it.
So cheating/adultery its still a word going hand in hand with Netorare its just that netorare stretches further than that meaning.
It's only in Miou's route too so there's two other routes without any at all.
I started down the path that had it, sadly I chose to quit before getting to far into it as plots with rape/prostitution/NTR just don't set well with me.
If you are on the fence, I'd say play it and give it a shot at least. The other two paths were worth a play through.
**SPOILER ALERT******
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rizu was the path that mentioned some of the prostitution of another character.
Miku's Path was clean of mentioning it.
The third girls path who's name is escaping me, ah Miou(I think) was the one selling herself. Again I didn't go down the path far enough to see how bad it got, but it was enough to break my tolerance(Which is pretty weak)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
**/SPOILER ALERT**
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
by the way admin, if the "partially translated downloads" is completed, will you post it on the main board(home)?
thank you ^^
it hard to find it even thought have nice story. thnx
Does Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru have a eroge or VN?
Probably because it has an anime and loss of interest, stuff like that
BTW, des anyone know when the next translation of monster girl quest is comin? I want to know the rest of the story!!! XD
This avoiding of emotional engagement (and honestly, emotionally engaging in another's love-life would be far more "odd") contradicts anything found in NTR or some other lovey dovey story, the separation of emotion and sex is actually quite common, and you will find that most people that do it are a lot nicer than people that dont (in fact, the "real" rapists are the ones that dont/cant do this)
I could write pages full of this, but I think I've already said too much ;)
It seems that people are concerned about the prostitution in this VN, but in my opinion its not that heart-wrenching. It doesn't explicitly show scenes where the "prostitute" makes dirty love with other people. It doesn't even describe the sex in detail either. So people, DON'T BE AFRAID TO PLAY THIS.
(I have been thinking about this for a while, sorry to bother)
The ntr don't bother me (in this game) because, miou isn't beyond salvation.
There's a lot of psychological issues inside ^_^'
this game is good and have deep psychology, the NTR is never showed though. the H scene is always with protagonist.
but well, the protagonist sometimes can pissing me off.
Originally ten year ago the term Netorare meant - your wife/lover being stolen by someone else. However the term grew wider and that was the reason why it also grew in popularity. NTR became very wide, because instead of staying upon a specific type of cheating it turned into a genre that tags the basic principle of all raging situations regarding love affairs.
If you want examples, read the following mangas to better understand what the NTR genre means:
[Nagare Ippon] Confession From Beyond the Mirror
[Takenoko Seijin] When you let go of my hands
[Yuzuki N Dash] Another World
If you don't read manga, then watch the anime "Triangle Blue." That will teach you what this genre means.
Thanks
Now a days, including ML Alternative, I'm always looking forward to the challenge of seeing how much can they offer me and how much will it affect me. For a person with a low control over their emotions and lacking in life experience to moderate certain ideas/thoughts, drama can be too intense and upsetting. For those of us that like to explore the limits of human tolerances, what the Japanese have done with these dramas in visual novels, are very enlightening and entertaining.
But I agree in that Hollywood would never make drama as good as the Japanese. I think it's because in Japan when you create stories you don't need to be politically correct about everything you create. Fucking Political correctiveness has completely ruined the art of storytelling in the West.
what is this patch?? where to get it...
(sorry for being a bother!)
still, is the ntr worse in this one then let's say, it was in Crescendo? (if i'm not mistaken) read that long ago, that had some similar issues with one girl (and if i'm not mistaken again, it showed when the girl was with some random dude while protag was looking)
and as always, thanks admin for the upload
I have read a few comments and read something about rape and stuff like that. I wonder why do you guys play Akabei eroges if it's known for its dark story? At least not very sweet.
I find just stupid blame a character just because you don't like it in the storyline. After all, the story was made to be followed up with the characters in. What'd be the fun in changing some characters? That's just being stupid.
For example, I didn't like Sharin no Kuni, but I think is really great. The lovey-dovey stuff is not my thing, but is very well made.
Another good example is YMK. That's really fucked up. I didn't really like the first case, but it was freaking good. I mean (SPOILER), the girl is almost raped.
I just play eroges for having a good time. I don't give a goddamn fuck if it is gore, rape or prostitution. It does only matters if as a visual novel is good (good story, art, bgm and characters). If it is, I don't mind playing it.
Arigato!
Try renaming folder (the one with patch) to something normal (like "a"), run installer with applocate (or japanese OS settings) and show path to game dir (doubleclick .exe?) if you'll still have problems I'll try reinstalling it and write what to do.
they did stop translating it or still continuing??
there all ages but fun
----------------------------------
SPOILER HAPPENING AFTER THIS POINT
----------------------------------
It just seems so lacking. In her normal end, you only get the part of them beginning to jog after failing her 1500-run, then it says "to one year later" but it just ends there and goes to credits.
Her true ending basically skips that part and goes straight to the one year later occurence and goes from there. Having them as different endings just seem completely redundant.
-----------
SPOILER END

TL;DR
I'm confused.
about the installation
what do u mean by change locale to japanese?
Then you'll see "Installing Japanese support (XP Vista 7)"
And click on one of the options
and there you go ^_^
I owe u 1 dude
Arigatou!
Thank you for your hardworks, admin-tachi ^^
Same producer.
4. Install the 1.01 patch
5. Install the English patch....part
I installed the game, and extracted the patch 1.01 that contains patch.exe, prof_patch.xp3, and a "read me" in jap....
And when I try to instal the "patch.exe" and select the folder where I installed the game a message pops up in jap but says "prof_patch.xp3"...is the file demaged or something like that?? How do I do step 5 Install the English patch??
like missing somekind of symbol.
how to fix it?? :(
.... now sit back and watch admin do the magic to change all the download link.
i waiting for galaxy angel ml now :D
After I got it installed(I used applocale on the setup file on the disc), I tried and failed with the ver 1.1 patch. Moving it outside that folder it's created in with the weird, tweaked out name fixed that for me. Note I also ran the patch in applocale.
After that, I ran the english patch file. Note that even if you try and install the eng patch in the wrong spot, it still runs. Whatever, just copy&paste the files it makes into the folder with all the other game stuff.
Who knows if this'll help anyone, but ya never know.
a) Install game
b) as stated above, take the contents of the patch folder out of the folder...I put the patch.exe & prof_patch.xp3 in Wineskin's "C:\Program Files\" folder, and ran it...chose the folder folder (just one level above the installed files) as my install folder...and it patched ok...
c) Ran the aprof-r2.exe
Was able to listed to the game's background music, and speech...running it on WS8Wine1.3.37 engine...just happened to try this one, so others might work as well...as usual, I haven't gone thru all the features of the game, but game seems to work...! Thanks!
*SPOILER ALERT*
Miou's route pissed me off more than any other in such a long time...to be honest I don't think I could forgive her after doing all that...maybe because despite having dated some girls, I haven't fallen in love, or maybe I'm just a jackass....so it kind of depresses me a little that the protagonist shows so much love xD
*SPOILER ALERT ENDS*
Well, that's all I have to say, enough ranting from me lol everybody should give the game a chance, it's worth it =D
Keep in mind that love is irrationnal...
I think I lived something worse than the main protagonist in term of betrayal... and that didn't kill the love I still feel weakly for that girl, even years after... even if I don't see her anymore... even if I don't have any contact anymore... even if we broke in a very ugly situation... I just can't remove her from my mind... I can't prevent me from wondering from time to time how she is doing now...
Go to control panel
go to Clock, Language, and Region
go Region and Language
After go to Administrative
Change System locale to Japanese.
first. i changed the locale
second. i extracted the files then installed it.everything is okay yet
third.the game is installed.now i don't with the patch 101.exe
I having a hard time understanding how to do it.what is asian wineskin front thing or this applocale thing help me patch the 101.exe from abc stp bt step!!!!please
Those who are having problems do what i say
First. change your locale to Japanese and copy the fonts(follow faq of this site)
next.download applocale and change the language from Region and Language control panel
then extract the files.
after that mount the game image(follow the faq)using daemon tools or whatever suits you.
next install the game.and try renaming the files.
after that extract the patch 101 and copy the within files to the game directory.The patch isn't necessary to launch the game.I did it without it.but for further reassurance please do.
then install the english patch and copy the files to the directory.try renaming the japanese.
could you expain in more detail please! i don't know what file i must renaming & what name we should put on that file.
just where are you stuck!
Put every files in the main game folder!(also the inner of the patch)
There should really be video tutorials for this.
I have no idea what that patch says, therefore I have no idea what folder I'm supposed to pick (I've tried a lot though, it should have worked) and I have no idea if the xp3 message means the file is corrupted or something.
Video tutorials would solve everything.
I haven't installed this game yet but I've obtained a fair idea on how to install VNs now.
First, change your locale to Japanese. To do so, you just: Control Panel -> Clock, Language and Region -> Region and Language: Change Location -> Region and Language: Administrative -> Change System Locale... and select Japanese Locale.
Second, download ALL parts of the game.
Third, extract all parts of the game in order, 1-?. You may need an extracting tool (I use winRAR) and if you have one it will probably give you the option to extract all volumes in order after you go to extract the first part. Make sure you extract when all the parts are downloaded.
Finally, if there are any patches you have to install, install those in the given order the the website tells you to do and read the readme notes they give.
HOWEVER...
some patches won't install properly.
If this is the case for you (it always is for me) then you have to look at the files in the patch and then look for the same files in the game and manually replace the game's original files with the patch's files.
Make sure that you don't replace entire folders because sometimes there are parts of the patches that don't replace all the old existing files. In other words, there are some files that the patch doesn't change and if you replace it with the entire folder in the patch, you'll lose some other files required for the game. It shouldn't be too hard to do so long as you have half a brain (no offense to those of you who have trouble).
This technique works for just about any game. Some you don't need to change your locale and stuff, but I just keep mine on Japanese locale because it's less work. :D
Hope I helped!
Now, it's my turn to ask for help!
Someone please tell me... does that 1.01 patch still exist?
Is it in the English patch download or something?
Or is it just outdated stuff that the admin hasn't removed yet?
Do I even need it?
It's in Japanese, how can I?
I don't know what folder I have to pick for the patch stuff and I don't know what the patch is saying, nor do I know what the message about the xp3 file is saying. -.-
I need to learn Japanese...

0. Make sure you've already changed your applocale to Japanese (refer to the FAQs)
1. Download all the files
2. Install the game (mount the ISO file using Daemon Tools, then run setup.exe)
3. Install the 1.01 patch (in case you are wondering, the patch is already included inside those 4-part files)
*to install the patch, extract the .zip folder and then run patch.exe. A window will pop out, and then select the directory where you install the game. The default directory is inside C://ProgramFilesx86/AkabeiSoft2(written in japanese)/Sonoyoko(written in japanese). Otherwise, you can just cut the "prof_patch.xp3" (or whatever is the name, I forgot, it's also inside the .zip folder) to the directory.
4. Run the english patch
Now you can enjoy the game ^^ Have a nice play.
This is is awesome. Even though, it is smaller i finished it in 18 Hours. I was really happy to finish the game [Well i get after every game finishes] but after finishing the Miku route in the end of the true end or even the other end . I cried and had the same feeling when anime finishes . Something Peircing the heart and poor Masayuki he has to once again redoa school year but he will have his GF [MIKU] and am sad that miou didn't have much good of an ending .But still i am crying... :( UWUWUWUWUWUAUWAWAWWAWAWWAWAWAWA.
P.S. Make Good games like this with always suspenseful story lines and routes and make more choices instead of just reading . SO , we get to have more flag events.
plz help me
