Rika is determined to follow her dreams and wants Satoko by her side.Īlthough Satoko is hesitant, she decides to walk this path with Rika. However, as Rika and Satoko begin to grow older, a life-changing opportunity presents itself to both of them.

Alongside their other friends, they spend every day together, and every moment is filled with fun and laughter. And it's been out for a year, so we're likely never going to get an English version, and I'm okay with that.Rika Furude and Satoko Houjou are best friends who have lived in the small village of Hinamizawa for their entire lives. The translation feature is still in beta, though, so I will reserve my judgment on it until further notice.įinal note: It's a great game. My one drawback, which is not so much about the game and more about the servant translator itself, is that the game often has too much text for the translator to handle and will cause it to crash. The story itself is a little far-fetched for this particular franchise, but we are, after all, dealing with meta-world layers, time looping, gods, demons, and witches, so, I can let a few weird dog monsters slide. Don't get me wrong, Suzuragi is a fantastic artist, but Akio Watanabe has still captured the essence of our beloved games club members and with the additional fact that he is a former animator for SHAFT makes me love it that much more. Had the game been done in Karin Suzuragi's style (the og higurashi mangaka) then it probably wouldn't have been as well received. Despite the somewhat rough animations in battle, I'm overall elated to be playing this game (with an easy to use translator, yes I shilled out $11 for 200IQ just to use the qooapp servant bite me) I've been a fan of the WTC series for quite some time now, having been introduced to it in 2010, and I disagree with most who say the artstyle clashes with the "aesthetic".
