Quick Update!

Hello!
This morning I did a big change to this blog. Not very happy with the result, I love the widget grouping but can't find a good background image. I prefer a background with not much pattern now, and this blue gradation is the best that I've found last hour. Trying to change button tab's length with no result, I'll try to browse more this afternoon.

cheers.

News Post: QuinRose Upcoming Games

I think it already a long time since I posted something that is not translation, so this time I’ll write some news about Quinrose, my favorite Otome Game company. Although QR was, is and maybe will always be, my favorite otome game company, I would have to say that I’m disappointed in their decreasing quality recently (and I’m heard same thing happened to Otomate’s games-just they released so many games that in a while a pretty good game will always appear). 

I’m happy that they make more games (almost one game each month) instead of 2-3 games a year like they used to do, just..... if only the can keep the quality. Even so, I still played their games every month and QuinRose homepage is on the top of my browser’s favorite list.

Okay, enough grumbling, let’s start with the news: Quinrose awaiting games (per September 2013)

         1. Hyaku Monogatari ~Kaidan Romance~

Fifth game in Kaidan Romance’s series, and  a fandisk of second game Hyakki Yakou ~Kaidan Romance~. Will be released on 26th September 2013, with same cast as previous game but with two more capturable character: the Aburasumashi Asuma Heita (CV: Terashima Takuma) and the Tengu Tobiura Wakaba (CV: Maeno Tomoaki). This will be rated Cero D (17+).
