We have to reach 750 in just 5 days? That's too much for our dying state.
Samuel Parker
Only 150 posts a day. Not difficult.
Looks like word cloud user is definitely gone though
Asher Moore
>well anons, i've probably got about 4 more wishes on the Monkey's Paw what do you desire? translations never so don't bother
That only works if you don't know that it works.
Easton Nguyen
I'll do my part.
Back to the Rance IX summary
Juan Robinson
>Reminder that Sen is into shotas.
Lucas Phillips
That shota shimazu brother can get her can't he?
I wonder how those scenes actually go down, I've never bothered to see them and I don't exactly want to go through an entire playthrough just to see how they go with the brothers.
Robert Gonzalez
TOO LEWD Hot but not true. Rance sexual.
Isaiah Sullivan
I'm probably going to get banned for posting this on a blue board
Carson Flores
Place your bets.
Sen vs Hanny
Angel Garcia
So wait, sen goes in and murders a bunch of hannies in the middle of of a baby making session?
Charles Reed

James Kelly
Maitreya deliberately aggravates the hannies to get them to attack Sen and Merci

Mason Allen
Now time for Leila to disgrace Leazas
Tyler Edwards
This is my current party.
As you can see I invested a fucking lot into making Shizuka durable.
And someone else bump because I don't think I can just yet
Kevin Carter
forgot to save my edits
Jackson Gutierrez
Look how much better Leazas is compared to Helman
Samuel Phillips
Red Death is looking cuter than usual.
Cooper Long
Rovert should have been in the fifth army
lies. Rick is the cutest
Daniel Morgan
Place your bets
Rolex v the Red Death
Daniel Hall
Has Leila ever won anything significant?
Jackson Lee
Xavier's semen
Lincoln Mitchell
Definitely not this fight
Carter Allen
Depends on your definition of significat. She's won a few fighting tournaments in Leazas and stuff like that.
Jason Diaz
A worthy victory over the Red Death by Cholochotov
not that we see any
Kevin Perez
Time for Kechak
Xavier Walker
She won the heart of Rick. Oh wait
Grayson Scott
No more headpats
Austin Perez
I'll stop here for now and finish the chapter off tomorrow
>Maitreya has an item that prevents him from getting attacked by hannies Has that always been a thing or did Maitrea pulled it out of his ass?
Logan Lopez
Probably some Mamatoto reference in how Maitrea could recruit a Hanny with a weird mask.
Angel Peterson
>8 people voted for him in the poll.
Grayson Reed
there is no accounting for taste
Ryder King
Starting with Sengoku Leila becomes kind of a joke character, constantly losing to stronger people, and generally being somewhat useless.
Sebastian Mitchell
It's not like she was that strong earlier anyway.
Joke is wrong.
She's an established strongish character so she's useful in establishing other enemies (Kenshin and Rolex) as strong without having to have them fight Rick first
Carter Bennett
Thanks for doing this, I can't wait for the rest of the chapter.
Aiden Evans
Although her losing to Ithere in 03 becomes kinda funny when III just implies he took control of all the Royal Guards with mind control in one shot.
Her only achievement would be getting to Rance in one piece in IV, I think? She was one of the characters that Rance didn't need to look for, right?
Jonathan Green
Nope. Just Rick and Julia made it
Justin Smith
Thanks. That makes me want to keep it up
William Howard
In IV she was trapped in Atlanta's mirror. Really, SR is probably the game that shows the most competent Leila because she at least gives Kenshin a more decent fight than Rance in that game.
Jason Torres
mainly because Rance decides he's too cool for actually fighting properly
Jacob Rodriguez
Have an angry Feliss.
>Maris x Rick Stuff
I'll get to that eventually.
Adam Reyes
great work user.
Thanks for doing this
Eli Brown
>Not Rance giving Rick a blowjob
Jason Moore
Just no
Brandon Reyes
Feliss is cute
After Rance 03 hopefully a new Feliss era has begun
Zachary Nelson

The horns are so cute.

Kanami is fucking dead in this picture.

Christian Reed
So, can someone explain to me what happened with Rance 5A, 5B, 5C and 5D?
Austin Brown
A, B and C were scrapped
Eli Hernandez
they fucked up and scrapped them.
Bezeleye was going to be the heroine. Rocky was in concept
Chase Green
>A, B and C were scrapped Why?
Mason Torres
They were shit
Sebastian Reed
>dying to a roller As expected of Kanami.
Landon James
Bezeleye is TADA's waifu and he didn't want you plebs fapping to her
Logan Howard
I've got a question for the FFA Sengoku Rance guys. How long does your average FFA run take (in actual time, not turns)? What about for players who are totally new to it?
I'm thinking of trying to master FFA whenever I'm in desperate need of a break from my studies, but I'd be pretty bothered if each FFA run took me like 3 days or something.
Incidentally, how good is the wiki for tips on FFA? I've never followed it to the letter, but I've never had the best results with it.
Cameron King

Julian Sullivan
>Bezeleye was going to be the heroine. Are you serious or kidding? I didn't know that.
Tyler Parker
Really depends on the house you pick. Some of them require grinding the fuck out of your enemy forces and that could take ages if you're unlucky. I've never used the wiki for FFA myself.
Gabriel Green
I'm pretty sure it suffered a considerable development hell in part because they didn't know what direction to take after KR.
Juan Miller
yeah she was
Jason Martinez
From last thread:
>Doesn't she tell you? Isn't it her dream to see 3,000 Cavarly units? Decided to chase this one up. Pic related, she fucking tells you. Also, dumb note, I'm not sure if it's a translation thing or not, but the System Info screen says 'Trainer Mokko wants cavalry unit of 3000', which isn't true.
This one's got me thinking. What bonuses are 'acceptable' in the eyes of the more hardcore players? It's without doubt that any of the family bonuses are overpowered enough to trivialise the game, same for the Battle Permits and the +1 Fan. I'd also probably argue that taking ANY additional characters might be enough to push the early game unfairly in your favour (is that debatable?).
But what about the other bonuses? +3 NP isn't at all bad and +10,000 gold probably doesn't make any difference. What about the item bonuses? Aside from the Akashita Dog and maybe Rance's Love and the gold statues, none of them strike me as significant.
So, long story short, would anyone debate the following statement? "If you want SR to be at all difficult, the only bonuses that are acceptable are: +3 NP, +10,000 gold and any of the item bonuses aside from the Akashita Dog, Rance's Love and the Gold Statues."
>Did you not read the stuff at Alice's mansion? I'm flicking through these again, nothing has stood out yet to say "SR was rushed or unfinished".

Alexander Phillips
One of them was "lost in a natural disaster"
Julian Wright
night lads. Stay alive
Andrew Sanchez
Mangagamer is gonna announce Rance 01, you heard it here first.
Jaxon Young
where does it say shes a shotacon?
Nolan Barnes
It's Rance 5D + VI. But it will never get released because Maria, TADA and Arunaru will get into perpetual nameshit for all eternity.
Levi Diaz
Nah, they'll just rename demons again and strip out all the honorifics.
Henry Evans
Aru included the honorifics in Haruka.
Daniel Bennett
But not in KR or VI, it's pretty clear he doesn't want them.
Mason Hughes
Because it was super Japanese-y. Rance is western fantasy, so it wouldn't fit and all that.
Luke Miller
Well that could just be MG requirements since their audience probably likes that, even if it makes no sense in English.
Kayden Nguyen
Hence why I think they will be included in a theorical Rance game released by MG, even if it doesn't make sense like points out.
Andrew Richardson
She can be seduced by Shimazu Iehisa in SR as part of his events.
Thomas Hernandez
MG aren't that strict.
Gabriel King
Maria keeps them in everything she translates, though
Leo Watson
One of them would have to give and Aru's way too stubborn for it to be him.
Nolan Collins
>One of them would have to give Not really, the one that translates it gets to choose unless it's orders from the top.
Austin Long
That depends, assuming MG brass want the titles to be consistent but don't really care how, it'd still be up to the translators.
Andrew Miller
You're all going to be disappointed.
Christopher Gutierrez
I'm not expecting anything so I have nothing to be disappointed about.
Hudson Baker
I'm incapable of feeling hope and disappointment anymore
Robert Green
What if they announce Evenicle instead of a Rance game? Would you be happy about it?
Bentley Miller
I wouldn't be thrilled at waiting longer for Rance, but at least it's a more gameplay centric AS title.
If not for Haruka and the stopped translations, I'd even accept Escalayer. I liked the anime. I just don't want it instead of Rance or another gameplay title right now.
Nicholas Ortiz
We're not expecting anything, just arguing for the sake of avoiding page 10.
Nolan Richardson
As a game? Probably one of the best things to bring over. Evenicle is really good.
Jacob Thomas
To be frank Haruka was a good first choice by Alicesoft, it's a good game with lots of porn, no way it was going to do bad. I don't think any Rance game except Sengoku will do as well as Haruka did.
