"description":"For those who are interested, it can be downloaded and played for free from the official source. It is a bit finicky to run. It requires a Japanese language environment. It also needs Japanese fonts or things won't display correctly (the default fonts I installed from the AUR did not work well here). I ran it on top of WINE without any problems after the initial configuration. Unlike most of the al|together translations, there is no native Linux version (this one was written in KiriKiri instead of ONScripter-EN).\nhttps://apothes.is/hosted/at2006/collage.html\n#visualnovel #visualnovels",
"description":"I reviewed a 2006 translation of a 2004 Japanese freeware visual novel called Collage last week. This one earns my clear recommendation. It is a story covering a couple of weeks in modern Japan told from the perspective of three adults (probably in the age 28-30 range). Over the course of the story, we see how the lives of the characters are more connected than they seem. The translation reads very well and the story is clever. I also appreciated the game's visual flair and soundtrack, both of which reminded me a bit of Persona 3.\nhttps://thenewleafjournal.com/collage-visual-novel-review/\n#visualnovel #visualnovels #game #freeware #doujin #japan",

"description":"But in full disclosure, Twitter did once come through in a big way for me. I am writing a long series of articles (now up to 21 reviews!) on old freeware Japanese visual novels that were translated for the 2005, 2006, and 2008 al|together festivals. A reader saw the series and sent a DM about trying to track down the novels. I did not see the DM for about 10 months. However, when I did, I worked with the sender (who is collecting them in a public MEGA Drive) on a couple of games and the interactions led me to track down the Japanese version of Manatsu no Kagerou, which is required for playingg the al|together translation since the English version is a patch. I found it in ONE older torrent... all of the original download links were dead.\n(Review forthcoming next month.)\nhttps://thenewleafjournal.com/leaf/on-the-hunt-for-manatsu-no-kagerou/\n#visualnovel #visualnovels #twitter #torrents",
"description":"I was reliably informed yesterday that it had been three years since I made a Twitter account for The New Leaf Journal. In those three years, our account has picked up 43 followers (or 40 if we leave out one of my friends and my NLJ colleague) and my most shared post was in 2020. All of the successes I had on Twitter were from a few of my articles making Hacker News page one, all of which spread on Twitter without my doing anything. As such, I would have done about as well on Twitter had I never made an account.

"description":"I think I quipped on the NLJ a while back that I would like to see a remaster of Persona 3. I didn't think there would be one. The trailer looks slick, but no evidence of change other than much better graphics. I think P3 has the best underlying story and aesthetic of the modern Personas, but FES is weaker than 4 Golden and 5 overall (4 Golden is my favorite on account of writing and characters).

"description":"I wrote a review of an open source Android launcher called Keikai Launcher a few days ago. On its own, Keikai is a simple bare-bones launcher. I would not use it as a primary launcher (I use TinyBit and Kiss would be my second choice), but it functions nicely for a second proposed use case -- an alternative app drawer. When I need to survey my apps on my LineageOS phone, Keikai is a much more elegant solution than navigating to settings. Moreover, I could see it being very useful on locked down Android-derived devices which do not let the user change his or her default launcher, such as the Kindle Fire line. Keikai is available on GitHub and F-Droid.\nhttps://thenewleafjournal.com/reviewing-keikai-launcher-android/\n#android #lineageos #keikailauncher #opensource #fdroid",

"description":"Interesting discussion on Manjaro going on. I used Manjaro (first KDE, then XFCE) for my first two years on Linux before switching to EndeavourOS. I chimed in to concur with a few commenters who much prefer EndeavourOS, but that comes with a caveat. While I am much happier on EndeavourOS, Manjaro's GUI tools, notably Pamac, helped me get up to speed three years ago having come from only using Windows. EndeavourOS would have been a much heavier lift when I started.\n(Note: Let us set aside that I should have been using something like Mint or one of the Ubuntus or derivatives thereof and not Manjaro.)\nhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36249036\n#linux #endeavouros #manjaro",

"description":"My review if Crimsoness, the official 2008 translation of a 2006 Japanese visual novel called Shakunetsu Hime. In Crimsoness, the player takes the role of Bakumi Moriyama, a schoolgirl who upon realizing that all of her answers on an exam were off by one, sets out to destroy the entire planet in 3 minutes. The 3 minutes is literal here -- the novel is timed. Crimsoness is, dare I say, literally an Earth-splitting adventure.\n(It was also looks like it was drawn in Microsoft Paint.)\nCrimsoness is free to download for Windows (the Japanese original also remains available to download). Unlike most novels I am reviewing, it was not written in ONScripter (Delphi, in this case), but the Windows version runs perfectly fine on top of WINE on Linux with no special configuration.\nhttps://thenewleafjournal.com/crimsoness-visual-novel-review/\n#visualnovel #videogames #red",

"description":"Thoughts on anime episodes I watched yesterday:\nThe Dangers in My Heart 11\nPosted its best episode for the second week in a row. The protagonist, Kyo, came to an important realization. In addition to the story progress, this episode featured some beautiful backgrounds for Kyo's abbreviated vacation. I am curious to see if it resolves key points in its conclusion in the same way that Angel Next Door did last season. Despite the strong finish, the series is held back by a rough start and our lack of insight into Anna's perspective and feelings.\nMy Love Story With Yamada-kun 11\nIt has improved a bit in its second half (having noted that I was not impressed with the first half, and episode 11 offers some hope that something will be resolved in the finale (I have my doubts). Akane, like Kyo, appears to have come to a realization (albeit she will state it clearly in the next episode).\nMix S2 10\nGranting that I am watching Mix without the benefit of having seen Touch, it continues to meander at a slow pace with surprisingly little baseball action, even compared to season 1. Generally pleasant, but stronger signs in episode 10 that it is going in an unfortunate direction on one of its romantic stories than we had before (not that the signs haven't been there, that is). I did appreciate one scene where the main protagonist, Touma, offered some meta-commentary on people losing interest in slow stories. The ending song and animation is still fantastic, especially for a show that has a 1980s animation aesthetic.\n#anime #dangersinmyheart #yamadakunat999 #mix-anime",
