Let's Play Second Reproduction! Yet Another Otome Game!

I got Lezette's good and bad ending, and Gardis' good ending. It's a good game, but I just don't get Chris when she says this to Gardis: "If you love me, why don't you ravish me?" I mean, what.

I may take you up on your offer, Shelby, although I much rather hope you get a new laptop soon! I swear I'm not procrastinating on Amanohashi's route, what is this nonsense you speak of?

On another note, Autocorrect now immediately recognizes when I'm about to write Amanohashi's name. I'm not sure how to feel about this.

Don't fight it.

Become one with the mustache

Alternatively, fight it and show us some sexy demon lovin'. 'S all good.

I am conflicted. I want to root for the demon lovin, but.. AMANOHASHI! DAT STACHE! UNF. UNF. UNF. Okay, I'm done. Please return to your regular thread creeping/posting.

EDIT: Ummm... I honestly put route instead of root.... I need to calm down on the otome games.

I got the forever alone route and Jin's good ending. That was intense. So intense.

Omigosh, this game. Feeeeeeels. Well, not so much for Jin since his route is :/. Even his bonus scene is iffy.

It didn't give me feels, it just made me kinda go, "ummm... oh... I didn't know that it was this type of game..."

Jin route made me think that. I mean, I can see how he can be attractive at times (and I liked his voice the best) but the things he says and does are :/.
Gardis on the other hand, made me squee even in the other routes because he's such a sweetheart and there was so much fluff in the bonus scene and I'm a total sucker for that. Lizette can get, well, really angsty and whiny when you're on his route but he's a dear otherwise. I don't play very many otome games so I don't have much to compare to, but this is really nice for something that wasn't made by professionals. And I was kinda slow in piecing them together, but I really liked how the background details came back and turned into something that actually had an influence on the story. And Chris isn't useless or an idiot which might have been the best part. She's dense, but I guess it was kind of obligatory since she's in an otome game. /rambling

Awwwn, I amlost cried a lot of times in Gardis' route. The first part of the game was so sad...

Did you ever get Gardis' bad end? It was equal parts tragic and disturbing, and just... feels all over the place.

Didn't try it yet. It will be the very next ending I'll try to get.

HAHAAHA! I just played ALL the "bad ends" and I've got to say:

This game.

There are no Bad Ends.

All the endings are Epic. Gardis is my favourite in general (because he sacrifies himself in every route so that I get FEELS), but I like Lezette too (with his unrequired love angst). I'm off to play Jin's route.

Huh? You didn't like that end? I actually liked it a lot - it was so yandere that I squealed :3

Yet again, my high tolerance for the ick has allowed me to see the silver lining of a bad end. I didn't think that it was all over the place...I thought it was pretty consistent. Kiriya did allude to it when she mentioned that demons are a very passionate race.

Anyone find it interesting that they try to redeem seemingly irredeemable characters? Especially the mother...

EDIT: Jin's End. Jin's End. Warning. Warning: logic will combust and character consistency will collapse if you play.

I think you may have misunderstood me. When I said "feels all over the place" I meant "my feelings were all over the place" (ie. my emotions were overflowing and spilling everywhere). 'Feels' is kind of like internet slang for 'feelings', I guess... Anyway, without giving too much away, I'll simply say that Gardis' bad ending was (for me) the saddest ending. And that in itself is by no means a bad thing. It is supposed to be a 'Bad End', after all.

Also, I'm personally not attracted to the 'yandere' character type but I do find them very interesting (and sometimes horrifying, but that's part of the fun really). Jin was my least favourite route, because of...reasons (I'm still trying to avoid spoilers, lol).

Oh, you meant "feels" in that sense. It was kinda neat because the person who died was different in that end.

Edit: OMG, Jin's route made me both squeamish and a little turned on at rare occasions (Hint: The cake is a lie!). But mostly repulsed at the level of psychological abuse from his manipulation. Yes, I also hate the victim-blaming too.. it made me RAGE.

But it did have a loltastic line:

And Jin was Very Pretty in the last CG. I wanted to stroke his hair so badly.

The people who patched and translated this get a standing round of ovation from me. The lines were overall excellent.

I got Lezette's (is that how you spell the name...?) bad end on my first try, and I thought that it was the good end. I mean, it was so badass! Yea, a bit bittersweet and open-ended, but daaaaaamn *_*

I liked it so much, I haven't even played his good end. Or any of the others. ^_^;

High five! Exactly why I thought that there are no Bad Ends (Jin's route was a little LOT ehhhh....)

My only complaint about this game was that there was no 3P route. I mean, clearly Lezette was bordering on Ace!behaviour at the end/maybe in the bonus and, look, Gardis can be a more assertive version of Julius and his complete opposite.

3P would have been fun, especially since Gardis kept alluding to it throughout Lezette's route.

EDIT: Okay, I played the bonus scenes and have a huge issue with:

I think back to a gaming panel that I attended yesterday. One of the speakers said, "You're voting with your dollars when you buy a game. So buy the ones that you want to see out there on the market."

It really made me think.

HIKKI!!!
She's the japanese singer with the best English pronunciation I know. I love Kingdom Heart II's opening song she sang:

Same, it felt like the kind of ending that would realistically happen anyways.

You're referencing Kuni no Alice games. Me gusta.

On a different note, I get what you mean about "voting" for a type of game.

Hey, may I have a plot summary for the routes? I tried downloading the game and it didn't seem to work on my computer; I'd like to know what happens...

What do you mean by the game not working? It took me a while to get the english patch to open properly, but I or someone else might be able to help.

It would crash in the middle of...I think it was the prologue. Right after

It's been a while.

-- Oh boy oh boy I love summarizing! :DDD Been a long while since I've played this, so some parts might be vague, but hope you get the general gist of it~

...
Yeahhhhh that really doesn't convey all the feeeeeels but that's the basic summary, yeah~

You have epic skills in summarizing.

...Wow. Jin is a dick.

Also thanks for the summary!

Mmhm~ Do you want summaries of the after-stories, too?

Sure~!

Oh darn, dunno what the problem is :[. But you can see all the pretty pictures and stuff in this LP at least?

Very nicely done.

:D

...
It's not that Jin's not my type... It's just... He's so radically different from the main two options... Haaaaa~...

Sofalisa, you should probably put that in spoiler tags

Done

Here's my spoiler reply:

OKAY, I'MMA JUST GO GET IT AGAIN. BRB.
JIN, WHY DID YOUR ROUTE NOT GIVE ME INFO?

LIKE FOR JIN
(Guess who is just gonna continue the LP?)
Info: Umm... I will be censoring... a lot.

LIKE FOR LEZETTE

Info: He is her childhood friend that is obviously in love with her. Beyond that... I know next to nothing about his route.

LIKE FOR GARDIS

Info: King/Lord of the demons. She is trying to kill him, so that everything will be all peaceful.

I'm a horrible describer.

Yaaaay, LP back from the dead <3

Are you doing all the routes? Cuz if you are, I'll vote for Jin to get the worst out of the way.

Edit: That picture and scene was really cute though, I have to admit.
