Good lord she is adorable.

I still haven't finished Chiho's route

Ayaka > Ristuko > shit > Chiho > bigger shit > Rise

I like lolis.

If Subahibi doesn't come out today I'm ending it.

That's how a prince should be.

Best edition

No

All the girls were lovely. Rise best girl
Check your shit taste.

I like how Ef Lite tried to act like friendship between men and women was impossible and could only lead to romance or heartbreak, then pointedly ignored relationships like Hiro and Mizuki or Kyosuke and Miyako.
Normally I kind of despise childhood friends but she was officially okay with me, perhaps even my favorite girl.

>This general is for the discussion of Japanese visual novels.

When the fuck did this change? Fucking pseudo-JOPs not staying in their own containment board

Reminder to report all reddit-tier circlejerk posts.

Thats how it was for literally years you dumb homo tool

Rise had the worst personality.

WUT?

If anyone it was chiho with her guilt trip, but i still thought she was adorable.

Ayaka's voice hurts my ears but I can't stop listening.
Right now I'm still on common route and my opinion is "Ritsuko has a route?" along with "Chiho last". Not sure if I'll do Ayaka or Rise first, depends on how long my ears last.

>I still haven't finished Chiho's route

Chiho kills Rise

The poll showed that more than half of the thread knows Japanese or is learning Japanese.

I didn't like Ayaka because her VA is the bully from YMK

Dude that lisp of hers gets me hard.

She drags you around everywhere without listening to you.
Worst fucking girl.

This nigga gets it. Her lisps makes her sound like she's sucking on dick all the time. Fucking. Diamonds.

No it wasn't you fucking idiot. This general is for the discussion of ENGLISH translated visual novels.
>The poll showed that more than half of the thread knows Japanese or is learning Japanese.
And? Again, this general is for English translated visual novels only. Otherwise, they can fuck off to /jp/ with the other texthookers

Yeah because shes clearly in love and is clinging on to the MC.

I don't see that as a bad thing.

Ritsuko having a route was weird, yeah. Ruriko and even Marika probably would have fit in better. She should have been fandisk bait.

Bottom meant for

People with lisps tend to have big teeth. Good luck!

>This general is for the discussion of Japanese visual novels.

???

Sour grapes

...fuck

Bad polling and you know it. Selection bias. Compare the number of votes you got with the number of unique IPs.

>The poll showed that more than half of the thread knows Japanese or is learning Japanese.

Last poll I took, I said I slept with more than 9+ women in the last week, made more than $150,000+ a year, and owned 9+ cars.

Only 1 of those is true.

What? Selection bias on a English image board? kek

>Only 1 of those is true.
My money's on the 150k+

If there are so many JOPs here be useful and tell the rest of us:

- What Japanese VN you're reading
- What you think of it

Provide some discussion, otherwise you're just shitting up the thread with offtopic crap.

if you have that much money, you can easily get laid.

Some stupid JOP changed it. Go back some threads and you'll see what it is meant to be

Fuck off JOP, we know you're just trying to make a place for yourself here.

The people who don't vote don't matter :^)

9 model cars

A lot of sour grapes in here.

Will the EOPs ever learn?

Fuck off JOP, you rats have you own containment board to do that in.

Pretty much. Even with a wife and family, money can buy a lot of opportunities. Women can smell money. You can easily emulate that by just dressing nicely. Wearing khakis and a button down shirt goes a long way. Got a suit you wore to a funeral one time? Even better. Wear it to the bar and go for the "just got off work" look. The saying "Women love a man in uniform" has a lot more to do with money than anything. I figure it works on a subconscious level they don't even notice.

These are my tips to you guys. When I dress comfortably, I don't get nearly as much attention.

Reading Axanael for about 20 mins a day and it's pretty cute.

Stop watching hollywood movies, retard.

hes right tho

Why do EOPs hate Japanese readers so much? Is the envy really that strong?

What job?

I miss Sachi. One of my favorite VN characters. Such awesome writing was done for her, and she's beautiful.

What do you do?
I own my own business and into real estate but at most I only make 120-130k a year.

I'm still bothered that Mitcher becomes a stupid ditz in the sequels instead of the glue which holds the girls together.

No. They have their own board and yet deliberately decide to come here and stir things up.

Personal experience. I've had to wear a suit to work every day for the last 15 years. If you can tell me that you honestly believe a woman in a bar is equally attracted to a hobo and a businessman at first sight, you need to go talk to some actual women.

As far as I can tell its simple logic. This thread is for translated VNs and most people here don't know Japanese. There's a thread elsewhere for untranslated VNs and most people there do know Japanese. So why post untranslated novels here, where most can't read, instead of to the thread where most can read?

The answer is, of course, to troll, brag, show off, etc. That builds up ire. That said, its nothing to get worked up about.

>EOP/JOP shit
>blogshit
I'm out

I liked Mitcher the most. Love her VA.

Blame the dumb eops...

I'm a regional market sales manager for an office electronics company. Do a lot of flying around, hiring, firing, and generally cleaning up other people's messes. Hence all the free private time for VNs. Great for making people next to you on a plane uncomfortable.

it's funny that blogging normie shit about getting laid is more tolerated than untranslated vns

Fuck off back to your board, JOP. We don't like your kind here

...

>noble works is better than majikoi
Stop

What's a NEET friendly job /vn/

Consider that;
- I have no qualifications
- I have social anxiety
- I am weak as heck physically

Don't really want big money or a large house, I'm fine with good internet, a small apartment but would like to have some spending money.

Chiho is adorable. Shame her route was horrid.

While we're on the topic, anyone know any fields/jobs to go in that pay well?

Moege > shit > Majikoi

janitor

Meh, you'll fall into normie shit as you get older. You can't avoid it. It's probably just a couple of old people going back and forth here.

I started with being a trucker. Quit, made my own trucking business. Once I had time for myself I bought houses, fix it up a bit and rent them or resell them afterwards.

All the shitposters arent JOPs to be fair.

trashman

Computer repair warranty work. They set up in big warehouses. People tend to stay off your back. I repaired laptops for Toshiba for a few years while finishing college. It was normal to go several days without talking to anyone. All the communication needed was in Oracle as long as you did your job adaquately.

>taking anything past thread 500 seriously

Fuck off JOP.

Those are physically demanding.

>no qualification

Best voice.
It took me a while to notice she was Yumina.

If you don't want to deal with a shit job every day, probably some form of software development. You can probably get a junior position if you do the following:

1) Dedicate a few months (at least 8 hours a day) taking online courses at coursera.org/ and learning as much as you can.

2) Build a github profile with some interesting projects you do on the side. This step is crucial as your github profile serves as the crux of your resume. You can get a good job with a solid github profile even if you don't have a degree.

Regardless of whether or not you take this advice, good luck user.

Japanese translator.

So you are saying that you genuinely have nothing to contribute to society, no skills, no physical aptitude, and you want a job where you won't have to be around people?

.... look up a mental handicap, memorize it, practice it, go to Social Security and apply for SSI. Like all the other weaboos.

>Dedicate a few months (at least 8 hours a day)
>8 hours a day
Jesus fuck. I'm already doing 2+ hours a day learning Japanese and that's killing me.

This is my long term goal, but it's probably not happening for 5+ years.

>moege is better than charage
Never ever

The typical full-time work day is 8 hours, if 2 hours a day is killing you, you will need to increase your endurance, and fast.

You are going to need more than 2hrs a day. You are a neet.

>wants everything
>8 hours work a day is too hard
>doesn't even realize how entitled he sounds.

Millennials. Seriously.

Hey, guys, I know there are some awesome millennials out there. Can you guys go smack the shit out of the other half of your generation? Because jesus fuck.

Really? The market is getting flooded with self taught Japanese translators without formal qualifications right now. No way that's a stable career choice anymore unless you're really good or have connections.

>tfw just turned 18 and old people visit this site
Neat.

It's not 8 hours a day working, but doing 8 hours a day BEFORE I can work and get money (and only maybe). That's just tedious and I don't even like programming.

I'm not betting on it, but it would be the only thing that is 'fun' to me.

>translate vn
>send it to mangagamer or sp
>now have job
Pretty easy. :^)

Old people are the ones that keep not only the English VN business going, but the entire porn industry as well. Because the kids sure as hell ain't paying for it.

I don't know if it's the same in Japan.

please

Start somewhere you lazy piece of shit. The work will not always be at the right time, in the right place, with the right company - but it rarely is. Just ask anyone with a kid if it came at the "right time" or ask a writer if they were ever truly finished with their book by the publisher's deadline.

You have to get over imperfections and stop waiting for opportunities. The world does not have as many perfect opportunities as Disney wants you to believe. Go make them yourself. Holy shit.

Math major. You can get any job and 300k starting retard.

More like
>get rejected by mangagamer for incompetence
>get hired by sekai

I'm nearly 30 and I loathed working 8 hours a day. Would never go back to that. I work a shitty SEO job that lets me work as much (or as little) as I want, while reading VN on a second screen. The pay would be shit for an American, but I can survive with it in my third world country. It's a dead end job, but I've been going at it for almost three years already, kek.

Enjoy slaving away if that makes you feel like a better person though.

...

It's not about you vs. me. It's what's normal. An 8 hour workday is normal. Everyone else does it, so can he.

In fact, these days, I don't know anyone that only works 8 hour days. They usually stay late, and and are taking calls/emails here and there (basically being on-call) until after dark - long after they've left the office. That is the new expectation of companies. That you be within reach all the time.

Easier said than done. I'm not very smart or charismatic.. even a simple office job seems like it'd be too hard for me to acquire/do.

Oh well. Time to drown the sorrows with eroge.

Why is her chest, like, 20 inches? Was the artist not real good with proportion or something?

It's your problem. Literally. Unless someone in this thread offers you a job working for them, you will find a problem with anything we advise. You are in your own way. Get the fuck out of your way, or stop bitching like it's someone else holding you down. We have nothing for you.
