Agreed, but women don't really count. The ERA never even passed so don't tell me they do.

The moralists have a better chance at outlawing pure porn, maybe hentai, but eroge with 5% ero and 95% story are fairly safe provided that someone is willing to stand up for them. The only people willing to do that are gonna be the ones with something significant to lose...

So far, MangaGamer & JAST. They're not perfect. I have issues with each of them on the way they handle certain releases, but when all is said and done they don't get the credit they deserve for putting out releases in a niche market with some obvious obstacles to face.

Ugh. Still censorship, and one I seriously hate. So, even characters who aren't a loli, but are under 18 will get their age changed. Retarded as hell. And yes, for loli, the body is what counts, but age is important too if they aren't over 18 because the knowledge that of their real age has that impact on the story and for their character.

That said, anyone can tell me who are under 18 in Koihime Musou?

Okay, so you have the .japan and the .english files, one of each for every script file.
Now take a look at the picture. That "aisy0069" is the voice name. It's in line 26. See how Aisha's first line in the English script is in line 28? (picture 2).
I added two lines to the Japanese script so the line numbers match. (picture 3)

Does your OS/shell (explorer) hide file extensions? Don't include .exe in the name in that case. If it doesn't hide them, make sure to include the .exe. You're supposed to replace the original exe with the new one.

He could take them one-on-one, but he wasn't good enough to mow through crowds, and he has responsibility as the leader. Everything ends if he dies, and his side would probably have to retreat if he's so much as scratched, and it'd cause morale to plummet if he's hurt at all.

Personally, however, I do believe piracy is immoral, because it goes against the spirit of our capitalist society. People creating software are intending to provide a service, and those who make use of the service should pay them for it. But that doesn't mean I'm going to go around criticizing every pirate I see.

Big problem is that Eroge developers, the ones who license it out to companies like MG and Jast, don't seem to understand that.

Anime market is way older than vn market, and it grew thanks to fansubs.

On the other hand untill lately only eroge translated to english were pr0n crap, That's why people don't look kindly on the genre. They ain't gonna pay 35€ for pr0n, no matter how good they hear it is. If eroge companies want to change that they have to keep releasing good games. lot's of good games.

They only began doing that.. they shouldn't expect much income in near future. it's more of a long term. Ironic but pirates and fantranslations are the only thing that can help them. Those people might not buy games, but they sure as hell will promote them. As long as they're good.
