DYNAMIC CHORD feat.apple-polisher// Overall Thoughts

I’m gonna try just compressing all my future posts down to something simpler to reduce the strain it puts on me because honestly I never planned on summarising game routes but somehow ended up doing it anyway. So what I’ll do now is just write up a basic thoughts/compaints etc. without spoilers as usual, but under the spoiler-y parts I’m only going to mention whatever is relevant so it won’t contain everything that happens.

DYNAMIC CHORD originally didn’t interest me at all because I thought it was just another idol thing but I got interested in apple-polisher because of Umehara Yuuichirou – but all their songs were sung by Aoi Shouta… So since the games started coming out I’ve been waiting for the apple-polisher game.

Given the things I’ve heard about the other games, my expectations dropped quite dramatically but I was bored enough to pick up this one. And in summary boy am I glad I did!

I kind of like the whole unmasking of each char when you finish their route too

In this game, the heroine Hiiragi Miu is a singer under the stage name MIU who is at the peak of her popularity. She is shown the ropes of the entertainment business by Grieflullaby, a senior band and they put her in contact with apple-polisher, who is a relatively unknown band under DYNAMIC CHORD. The singer of apple-polisher is NaL – Amagi Narumi, who was actually Miu’s childhood friend and first love from when she lived in America. And with that connection, she ends up becoming close to each of the members, Kurosawa Shinobu (Kuro), Aoi Yuuki (UK) and Otoishi Yuusei (Toi).

BAD APPLE WARS // White Haired Disciplinary Committee Member Route and Final Thoughts

YES I CAN FINALLY BE DONE WITH THIS GAME…

Even though I technically was already done with this game a few days ago 

The poster boy which isn’t on the title image, hmmm

White Hair’s route follows the same style as Satoru’s route, which follows the same event as the Bad Apples’ routes so…Imma be brief.

BAD APPLE WARS // Satoru Route

This is my 2nd last route in BAD APPLE WARS, and let’s just say I’m more happy about that than anything else so far in this game HAH.

wew 2nd last route

So unlike the other routes, Satoru and the White Haired Disciplinary Committee member (GDI I need a better name) are both under the “good” side, where Rinka doesn’t join the Bad Apples. The common route differs a little to the “bad” side but overall nothing is that different so I’ll be skipping over it as fast as I can.

BAD APPLE WARS // Shikishima Route

Since I have already done it to the death I’ll stop referring to Angel Beats now. I actually just forgot most of the story because it’s been so long but don’t tell anyone.

I didn’t realise this game only had 5 routes as opposed to the usual 6 so I was very happy to know I cleared more than half the game already. Aw yis. Now what can I do about this sick feeling I have after I finished the route?

Ah yes, Bad Angel Beats, the game that everyone wants

I’m gonna skip over the prologue and stuff again because it’s all in Aruma’s route, and it’s all copy pasta anyway.

Yoiyomori no Hime // Julian Route and Initial Thoughts

So I finally got back to BAD APPLE WARS because I thought if I could do KoiPri I can do anything.

Looks like I missed the memo that said even KoiPri was more interesting than BAW. I’ll write up Shikishima after this post lol.

Instead of faceplanting every time Rinka said she was empty, I just went back to Yoiyomori no Hime which I started and never finished.

I’ve been writing the title as Yoyoimori this entire time and no one corrected me thanks a lot guys i hate u all

The game is set during a war between Schonwald and Stahl, two neighbouring countries with the supposedly cursed Dark Night Forest (Yoiyomori, gomen I couldn’t think of a better english translation aside from literal evening night forest) lining their borders. The story opens with the heroine Ilza running through Yoiyomori, just barely escaping with her life after an attack on her village Blume, left everyone else dead.

She collapses in the forest but is rescued by Julian who then takes her to a mansion which is shared by him and 6 other young men, Claus, Harold, Miriam, Lutz, Ulrich and Lambert. Upon realising her situation, the group’s “leader” Claus takes Ilza’s only memento of her parents hostage and forces her to stay in the mansion with them for reasons unknown. He reveals that every single one of them have been exiled to the forest by Dictator-Prince Erenfried of Stahl, and all harbour a deep grudge against the country. They all live with each other under the same common goal of hoping to exact revenge one day and tell Ilza her best chance of doing right by her village is by being with them anyway.

5nin no Koi Prince ~Himitsu no Keiyaku Kekkon~// All Routes and Thoughts

No this isn’t about the mobile game of the same name, but the Vita port that came out…..2 years ago.

Y’know when they announced the cast and I saw Koyasu I immediately eye zoomed into his char and after hearing it was originally a mobile game, realised they doomed him to a subpar game. Nevertheless this means I bought it.

I originally intended to do this as a short thing because I imagined it was a short game but…Yeah nothing new it was short, I’m just slow. I didn’t take many screenshots either.

This game has all the hallmarks of being the Best Game in History

5nin no Koi Prince, or KoiPri is about this super rich old fogey who recently died, Saionji Hajime’s fortune. Apparently he left behind like an obscene amount of money (50 billion yen) to his children, with one catch: only the one who marries the daughter of his one true love will be the one who can inherit it. Making sure this is a legit marriage of love, is the lawyer Maki Yuusuke.

Coincidentally all of Hajime’s sons happen to be super successful as well as good looking which makes them the Prince Five as dubbed by Maki (I used this dumb ass name as my tag for the non-spoilery live tweeting of the game as well). So Maki drags the daughter of Hajime’s first love (the heroine) to his mansion and abruptly tells her to marry one of them.

The heroine (patissier) couldn’t give two shits about the money since she’s happy with her life, but upon hearing that the jealous younger brother of Hajime, Shiro might try to destroy her life accepts the conditions, choosing one of the dudes.

Magic-Kyun! Renaissance // Suminomiya Aoi Route

After Teika, it only makes sense to do Aoi so here he is.

Aoi (CV: KENN) is a hikikomori who only cares about calligraphy, his magical art. He has poor social skills and attendance record, so much that people in his class doubt his existence.

After Kohana transfers to Hoshigei High School, she is assigned to be on the Hoshi Fes Committee with him among others and everything begins there.
