Manga: P.S. Three-san

Wednesday, October 1st, 2008

ps3-san

P.S. Three-san (amazon) is a manga by IKa which was originally posted online as a web comic but was recently published and sold in a book. The story is about this girl called PS3-san who is trying to become an idol, and her main rivals are Wii-san and Hakomaru-san (referring to the 360).

I couldn’t think of a way to introduce the manga effectively so I made everything easier by translating a few of the strips instead.

Finished the devil on G string

Saturday, May 31st, 2008

gonzoooooo.jpgTakes about 15 to 20 hours to finish every route. Everything was pretty average aside from Haru’s route. Ugh, I don’t know. A number of people have been bashing the game already, I don’t think it’s that bad, but it’s not anywhere on the level of Sharin no kuni at least.

There’s still all the weird inconsistencies between earlier routes and Haru’s route that I couldn’t figure out. It almost feels like they changed the plot at the last minute and didn’t have time to fix the earlier parts…

The first book of Ikoku meiro no croisée by Takeda Hinata took me forever to find! It hit the bookstores late Nov / early Dec but it was already sold out in stores by mid December.

I hadn’t gone out and bought it immediately thinking that it was running in Dragon Age Pure and it’s probably under the radar, but I ended up having to check almost 20 different bookstores to find myself a copy in December.
