A Profile

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?

I have not a clue what to really expect from this. But, considering it is Akebei Soft, I'm sure it is good.

Dope05 Oct 2011Reply

Wow, I didn't even knew that this was translated. Thanks for the upload, Admin.

MzKing05 Oct 2011Reply

I was thinking something to download and you post this one. great job admin ^^

raitou05 Oct 2011Reply

new upload!!must try this. keep up the great work,admin

felix1205 Oct 2011Reply

will try it out. thanks admin

Jess05 Oct 2011Reply

Surprisingly enough, more NTR... one of the heroines is a prostitute so I'm guessing that's where the NTR comes into play. I'm surprisingly fine with it though... maybe because I know what to expect... or at least think I do. Once more it's just a friendly warning.

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.

Thanks for the warning, I would never touch a game with NTR content..

wefsa05 Oct 2011Reply

author did not write NTR for you to never touch it

YAY!05 Oct 2011Reply

you spoiled the novel....
-.-

Jess05 Oct 2011Reply

How so? The description says "Now, however, that old friend of his vanishes in the dead of night to prowl where an ordinary girl should not." so it's not exactly hiding the fact... I guess you'd assume she's fighting demons but this is a drama not a supernatural story. Plus it's only one route. A real spoiler would be saying how everything gets resolved.

Jess05 Oct 2011Reply

*Cough* I'm assuming it's one route. Plus I have no clue which of the girls it is... It could be one or all of them for all I know.

Thanks admin, you rocks!

miichan1905 Oct 2011Reply

so what is NTR?im still new to this world of galge~,care to explain?

It means protagonist gets his girl stolen by someone else.

miichan1905 Oct 2011Reply

so admin that mean i cant get any girls? and all the girl going to be take by someone else? also did this game all story without click something out of 3,something like that,sory hard to explain it,lol,sory again

Ted05 Oct 2011Reply

I think thats only for the so called 'Prostitute' they were talking about in the earlier post. Just downloaded but not installed yet. Gonna do it later since I'm busy. Lol

saiseisuru05 Oct 2011Reply

The visual novel database doesn't say anything about this being a ntr kind of game http://vndb.org/v1894 and i usually trust there info on that site because they are rather thorough with there tags.

Jess05 Oct 2011Reply

Huh... it was there but apparently somebody voted against it so it's not displayed anymore. If you click the 'Modify Tags' tab you can see one person had put up the NTR tag (and his history of edits make him look dependable) but someone else got rid of it (and he also has a seemingly good track record...). I may have been wrong and if so greatly apologize for my fake warning... I guess I'll play through it to make sure.

tatose05 Oct 2011Reply

No, the NTR tag should be there, it is major to the plot.

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.

Zaku05 Oct 2011Reply

Thanks for the upload admin. BTW does anyone know where I can find a guide for this game?

Dragon05 Oct 2011Reply

Well this one was a surprise. And yes the visual novel database doesn't label this with the netorare tag and while the database isn't foolproof I don't see a reason to assume it's there. Unless of course you've played it.

tatose05 Oct 2011Reply

The NTR is there, but NTR (typical non-graphical NTR) is overwhelmed by other more serious themes and interactions.

Most people who hate NTR (like me) should not be getting butt-hurt over this.

tovin05 Oct 2011Reply

is this voiced?

tran05 Oct 2011Reply

currently debating whether to get this visual novel or not...
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

gomorrah05 Oct 2011Reply

Crescendo had a similar sounding situation for one girl and as far as I know that wasn't labelled NTR. In fact it was my favourite route and ending, so don't write it off just yet.

Thanks admin.

Jess05 Oct 2011Reply

Hey, that's odd... Didn't that Crescendo girl engage in group sex while she was technically dating the protagonist? It was forced but I think she got paid in the end... maybe that cancels out the NTR effect?

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...

admin05 Oct 2011Reply

Not really...
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.

Jess05 Oct 2011Reply

Wouldn't that count as NTR? Maybe I'm just using NTR and heroine's being raped by other people interchangeably... Sometimes I fail to see the difference (if there actually is any)... Strange it wasn't labelled so in vndb... Oh, but this is really off-track. :P

Nightdragon06 Oct 2011Reply

Its kind of a "Mileage varies" And i have already gone past my personal event horison when it comes to stories.... Its going to be a seriously bitter story, with a happy or somewhat happy ending.....

Rizu12 Oct 2011Reply

Yep, that's NTR. More specifically, Netorare type C.

tran05 Oct 2011Reply

eh ill just read it and see for myself lol, if i get to an ntr scene, im gona...try to finish it lol

oni05 Oct 2011Reply

thanks. I dont even understand wth they are saying from the preview.

Jeff05 Oct 2011Reply

I'm having trouble installing the 1.01 Patch. I try to install it in the game directory/where i installed "a profile", but it always comes up with a message with a bunch of Japanese and then "prof.patch.xp3" in it so im guessing im doing something wrong with the 1.01 patch.. i copy prof.patch.xp3 to the game directory then install the patch but it always comes with this message. help would really be appreciated !

Ponyo05 Oct 2011Reply

Don't copy anything, just install the game, then run the patch and select the directory (the first one with the japanese name, not the second in which most of the files are). Then run the english patch. It should be OK but you must use japanese locale.

Thomas05 Oct 2011Reply

For some reason I can't get this to insteall. What am I doing wrong? =( I unpacked it and mounted the image, and it's in Japanese, so I try to just click the ones I think would install it, and it goes through the installation process, but at the end it comes up with a blue screen and says "Syntax Error".

admin05 Oct 2011Reply

You need to change locale to japanese before you start installation (no, applocale won't work acording to translators)

Jeff05 Oct 2011Reply

yes it is in Japanese locale. the whole computer.

admin05 Oct 2011Reply

No idea then. It works fine for me on Windows7 Business x64.

shinn05 Oct 2011Reply

just wanted to ask, what happens if i install english patch without the 1.01 update, will there b any problem? cos i installed englisd patch b4 updating n it works.

Jeff05 Oct 2011Reply

Yeah what shinn said.. and admin can you tell me how you installed 1.01 patch exactly? i have windows 7 x64 too so i don't get it. i know how to install patches so idk,,,

admin05 Oct 2011Reply

x64 has two "Program Files" folders - one for 64bit apps and one for 32bit - patcher by default selects the x64 one, while the game installs to 32bit one by default.

Jeff05 Oct 2011Reply

Yes i choose the x86 one, the 32 bit, i know all you need to know to install it, it simply won't but can i install the English patch without the 1.01 patch ?

admin05 Oct 2011Reply

I think you can. Just try it out.

Jeff05 Oct 2011Reply

alright thanks for responding so fast. If you had a face i'd kiss it.

shinn05 Oct 2011Reply

Just saw the reply to my post. okay i understood the reason to the patch and thanks to jeff for continuing my question and thanks to admin for answering. Good Job XD
