The sprites are fucking amazing if you couldn’t already tell, and so is the music.
Little busters ex english patch with h scenes full#
It’s got all the options (font selection, auto read speeds, full screen options) that an experienced visual novel company like Key should provide (I’m looking at you, Kagetsu Tohya…) and it seems like the programming has been re-done from ground up compared to the previous games. The interface system is very updated and gives one what you would expect of a modern day visual novel. kĪ nice portion of the common-route half of the game is dedicated to this battle system, preparing for the baseball game, and missions fabulous-leader Kyousuke gives you. I of course kept it on, but the option is still there for those who want to sit down to a traditional VN.
It’s a pretty interesting system, but it still lets you turn it off if you don’t want it. The game has an array of small minigames, most notably the battle/ranking system added to help your friends combat their boredom – using an assortment of random weapons and turn-based battling. This lets it stand out from other Key games alone in adding some serious different styles, having two separate key writers.īut the writing alone isn’t what sets it apart. Half the cast is done by the original character designer, and the other half (you know the interesting ones, Kudo and Rin included) are done by the new designer.
One, the original Key staff brought on a lot of people specifically for Loli Little Busters. There’s a few things that sets Little Busters! apart from your other Key games.
Squishy! Eh? Would it be boring if I kept doing captions of what the characters say…? The characters are fairly diverse and you can expect something different from each of them. Little Busters! does a good job of melding all the stories together for a solid 25 hours of gameplay, and has (on estimate) 6-12 additional hours per character after the common route is over to explore each route after completing the game successfully the first time. Basically, it’s up to you to gather your harem baseball team of diverse females each with their own in-depth backstory up to you to explore. When your fabulous/gar/charismatic/otaku leader Kyousuke gets bored you form a sandlot-baseball team to add a bit of productivity to your after-school antics with you and your friends, who are hell bent on fighting each other. All the characters are pretty entertaining, and knowing only a few phrases of Japanese I haven’t played it enough to pick a favorite character but overall Kudo and Masato are pretty comical and fun to converse with.īasically the story starts out introducing Riki, the main character, a member of the Little Busters! which consists of him, his friends, and their leader’s little sister, Rin (the main heroine, of course). Little Busters! is no exception, providing a very well rounded introduction before you even enter any specific character route. The translation team seems to be working at a somewhat steady pace, but you could probably learn a lot of Japanese in the year (or more) it’ll take to be 100% completed…Ĭharacter depth has always been my favorite part of a story, and Visual Novels usually do a good job of expanding on just that. You can apply parts of the original patch to the EX version by using something like Universal Extractor, but it will be buggy. For starts, Little Busters EX is not translated (nor is Key’s memorial edition version), and only a partial patch exists for the original Little Busters common route as of the writing of this post. Let me start out by discussing it’s current English translation status, since that’s what a lot of people who look at this post for months to come will be looking for. GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNN!? No English!? I’ve been playing the Ecstasy edition (EX), and it’s been pretty entertaining and relaxing. Little Busters! isn’t very new (or extremely well known), but I haven’t done a full-out visual novel review in a while and I thought it’d be a nice in-between while I segway back into writing about anime weekly. D-Don’t get me wrong, y-you’re cute and everything, b-b-b-but I’m married! And if Kohaku finds out…well yeah she does mess around with Shiki, but there’s this alter ego called “Magical Amber”…
