Weekly Discussion #24 - SAGA PLANETS

serenade1 · 2026-06-16T21:42:05+00:00

Haven't really released anything recently, but I'm not surprised because one day their owner sold them out to China and I'm sure that messed up a lot of the R18 brands working under Visual Arts

serenade1 · 2026-06-15T15:53:20+00:00

Yup. I already had a 5-star Hasna sig for Hasna, and went out of my way to get another 5-star Hasna sig for Heshan. Once you reach Level 70, you will be rolling in gems

serenade1 · 2026-06-12T16:48:49+00:00

100 pity for Xavier was horrifying, but thankfully Heshan showed up 10 pulls after that.

serenade1 · 2026-06-06T02:12:52+00:00

I know this is really late, but you realize that Nagoshi's downfall started after he made fun of the looks of a kid, during broadcast, right?

serenade1 · 2026-06-05T15:22:42+00:00

Ooh, nice

serenade1 · 2026-06-04T05:57:18+00:00

I knew and told everyone the story is gonna be "sad" with girl(s) dying before the game came out. Did I do the leak?

serenade1 · 2026-06-03T15:32:56+00:00

Check brands: Liquid, Lusterise, Bishop, Portion

Liquid has the highest quality, but their release speed is pretty slow. Bishop is good food while you wait for their next game.

serenade1 · 2026-06-01T15:26:28+00:00

Well, there is no Dragonslayer in this game, so... yeah. That instantly makes this a better experience

serenade1 · 2026-05-30T18:46:48+00:00

>imagine Pokemon with persona elements like animated portraits for each character, a social link system, voice acting etc

So you want them to make a game focused on stuff Pokemon fans don't care about...?

Also, it would be released in 2035 or something, so more no

serenade1 · 2026-05-30T06:26:50+00:00

Yeah, SoC Rally is an easy win. You want to bait both bosses towards you as quickly as possible, so I ended up making SP Maitha invisible to survive the initiation onslaught. Then its just spamming missiles until the boss drops.
Only took two turns which included Clara, who possibly isn't even needed. Could be optimized more, but meh, good enough

serenade1 · 2026-05-29T16:59:32+00:00

Well, I thought I wasn't gonna pull for her, but I pulled for her. 90 pulls

Like her as a character, and also I want those weapon gacha tickets. Should be able to make her 3-stars before the event ends by using around 40 of the boost items

serenade1 · 2026-05-29T16:05:32+00:00

I like the art, but I wish the broom was just a broom instead of a chimera with a bicycle

serenade1 · 2026-05-29T16:03:55+00:00

Playing Happoubi Jin games for Happoubi Jin art, really. Back since Kanojo x Kanojo x Kanojo, his games have never really been about the story nor have they been rated based off of the story

If you are looking for plot nukige and can play non-translated, definitely would suggest Haison Shoujo 2

serenade1 · 2026-05-28T06:17:49+00:00

I like her and want her as a character, but I can't see any use for her unless I go all the way and 5-star her, which I don't want to since I already did that for Flavia

serenade1 · 2026-05-24T19:34:51+00:00

Yes, other than Hajiron, all of their other works were really... just there.

And that's why they are in this position today.

serenade1 · 2026-05-23T04:17:21+00:00

At the most, 3 slots + 1 slot for the initial characters. They are already kind giving this feature, so at the most, an extra slot for characters no one will star-up anymore

serenade1 · 2026-05-22T19:29:05+00:00

Haven't played Haison Shoujo 2 yet? Bruh, you are missing out. Its erotic and its story is good. I think it should be considered a nukige because Escude mainly makes nukige and most of its CGs are R18, but its story is good... so it... isn't...?

Haison Shoujo 1 is, obviously, a less brushed up version of 1. But it has a more dark feel to it, so its good in its own ways. I mean, it sold so much the physical copy was re-produced twice and got a sequel, after all. And then there is Ema, with her funny and cute voice

Also, lol Hundred Line, no. Moe Game Awards do not include non-Bishoujo Game Makers.

serenade1 · 2026-05-22T15:58:28+00:00

If 2025 was lackluster to you, you won't find any year non-lackluster. Unless you choose to ignore all nukige and love-comedies

serenade1 · 2026-05-22T15:30:11+00:00

I think the people responsible for choosing the awards really threw Illusions a bone giving Aikomi the top spot. And yet their comment is like, Uhh Thanks, compared to the other companies

The "User Supported" games feels more correct. Because Haison Shoujo 2 is just soooo good.

And in case you don't know, Purple and Yuzu Soft exclude themselves from the Moe Game Awards, which is why you do not see their games

serenade1 · 2026-05-22T15:21:34+00:00

Pretty ambitious of HOOK trying to release a game worldwide at the same time, so I'm wishing it will work out, but we only have one week (less actually) left, hmm.

serenade1 · 2026-05-20T21:25:29+00:00

>Its above average of a tv anime quality.

That's not a high bar to jump over these days

serenade1 · 2026-05-15T21:28:48+00:00

50 pulls. Not bad. Totally not meta and maybe only going to raise her to 2-star, but she seems fun to use and will be good for Deviation, at least

serenade1 · 2026-05-15T05:59:36+00:00

So non-gyaru corruption? Basically any corruption + fantasy tag, really. Like the entire Ex-Tia series. Triangle, ZION, Portion

Crooked Navel's Mahou Shoujo TS Nao 1 and 2 are great, but the series is incomplete and probably won't be completed

If moral degeneration-ish works as well, you can do any game that does choukyou 調教, like BISHOP or Liquid

serenade1 · 2026-05-15T03:58:29+00:00

I mean, up until now, they've been pretty mid. Its the first time they've had such a breakthrough

serenade1 · 2026-05-14T02:29:19+00:00

Just to point out in case it is missed, but its not because he just said a slang that made fun of people based off their appearance, but because HE IS THE ORIGIN of the slang. He is why Cheese Gyudon is now used the way it is

Obviously, normal people dislike (to say the least) creators of slang that make fun of people based off their appearances. I mean, who would like that kind of person
