Nenshou! For Girls - Introduction and Instructions

Hi, Terry here bringing to you a new (abs-building and translation) project. I call it...

LET'S PLAY: NENSHOU! FOR GIRLS

Image not mine. I only borrowed it from another reviewer's blog entry.

INTRODUCTION


A brief intro, this is the second of such games from an Japanese app developer CREATIVE FREAKS. The first of the series was targeted for males, featuring a love interest cum fitness coach, and worked under the same dynamics. (Interestingly enough, this app has enraged several about the sexism and verbal abuse this game features. Upon trying it out, I don't think it's that abusive. =/ The guy even praises you. It's a tsundere kind of love narrow-minded people don't get. XD)

There are three dateable characters in this app, but at the start, you're only introduced to the first guy. In this case, it's Katsuragi Kei who happens to be voiced by the one and only Namikawa Daisuke (most recently Egawa Takuma in Baby Steps, less recently Italy from Hetalia, Tobari-sensei from Nabari no Ou, and well, Ootori Choutarou from N/Prince of Tennis).

The other boys you'll find available in the later episodes are Maizono Touma (CV: Kimura Ryouhei -- KnB's Kise Ryouta, Magi's Judal, Tokyo Raven's Touji) and Shiba Ryuji (CV: Konishi Katsuyuki -- DiaLovers's Reiji, DRRR!!'s Tanaka-san, Hetalia's Canada/America).

The story follows a slightly debu (fat/obese) heroine who's attending the Ootori School of the Performing Arts...on her journey to, you said it, lose weight.

Announcement: DN Feature

Good news, everyone!

I've been holding this back for a while, but I feel like now is the time to share this news.

Since up to now, I've only been doing translations of dream novels without keeping their main essence of being a dream novel (that is, the ability to choose the main character's name), I'm finally restoring that feature. (yey~)

I've edited the previous entries, and I'll make a master post soon.

Yagyuu Hiroshi DN - Otoko toshite Touzen no Shikou

I randomly came across this DN, so I decided to translate it. Sorry for the lack of updates. Currently, I'm translating a Hiyoshi multi-chap DN entitled First Love. Please look forward to it!

Yukimura Seiichi DN - Koibito ni Natta Hi

Here's the continuation of the previous entry. This particular DN was a joy to translate. I really liked how there were action scenes and how the shounen and shoujo aspects blended. ...or I could just be really happy that Niou came out in this fic even for a bit. 

Beware, T/Ns still abound.

Below the cut, you'll be able to read the translation without the original Japanese.
To read the story with the original Japanese text (the translation is translated in between lines/paragraphs), please refer to the link to the Evernote entry below the cut.

Yukimura Seiichi DN - Isei no Tomodachi

This is my first time translating a DN in two parts. Here is Part 2.

...I've put a lot of T/Ns in this one. I hope it doesn't detract from your reading experience.

Below the cut, you'll be able to read the translation without the original Japanese.
