Starry Sky ~ In Spring
Thursday, December 29, 20118:53 PM

The boys from all the Starry Sky Installments <3

 So I still don't have that camera. Ne~ that's really depressing. And to think that I actually have the money from Christmas. There's this pink Nikon camera that I've been wanting to get since... well, since I scoured for a Nikon camera (after being near one that isn't DSLR but looks like an actual camera and takes really good pictures that don't feature your face complete with the volcanic zits and disgusting sweat) and saw one that wouldn't sweep my budget clean too much. So yep, Starry Sky In Spring. It's an otome game that actually took me a day to download! What with all the necessary stuff to make the English patch work... 

But it was worth the wait~ I don't know if there's an available patch for the next three installments but if I do much voodoo dancing and turn around in circles, maybe another one would come up available :) So yeah, I finished Suzuya Tohzuki's route first. Well because... he's gentle and heartbreakingly handsome (although Kanata appealed to me too). It's just not that. He's also incredibly responsible and mature. Like a mom or an oba-san. LOLS.

So you probably don't know what I'm talking about. Lately, I was able to download an Otome Game, Starry Sky In Spring. It's supposed to be a series game and I've heard they also have an anime for this, idk. It's made by Honey Bee and the artwork's totally amazing! Like you'd literally fall in love with the guys (but so far, I've only tapped on 3 guys and married one of them *KYAAA!*) Anyway.... brief summary there:

(Right, now I'm tempted to just copy and paste a summary from my favorite Otome gamer, but I'm currently fighting the urge to do so *grimace.) You go by the name Tsukiko Yahisa (unless you prefer another name since apparently it's up to you) and you're a second year student of Seigatsu Academy. Your school specializes in Astronomy and you go to this rural institution with your two childhood friends Kanata Nanami and Suzuya Tohzuki. At the end of the semester, a transferee student, Yoh Tomoe comes into your lives and surprises everyone when he kissed you in the cheek! With Suzuya and Kanata's  feelings slowly coming to a form (they've loved you for a long time but was too scared that your bond as childhood friends would break if they make a move) and Yoh's transparency with his feelings raises the stakes higher and you'd have to make your own decision in the end. 

That's basically the plot. You get particular CGs when you go into a guy's route and there's two possible endings for each of them. A good one and a true one. And here's the curious part; of course you'd think that the good ending would be a super romantic one right? But from what I got, I think the true ending's more endearing. KYAA~ Just thinking of my ending with Suzuya gets me giggly all over again. Although the sweetness overload rather turned thing a little bit weird for me around the penultimate part. (Penultimate = before the end) 

So I'll just spazz over the guys okay? Here are my charming little... prince charmings.

Yoh-kun

Well, I didn't really feel Yoh-kun at first, but after readng White Butterfly's review of Starry Sky In Spring, I kinda got interested in playing him. Oh well, I plan to play all of them anyway. :) It's just that Yoh-kun isn't that captivating, may it be his looks, his demeanor, and well, compared to Suzuya-chan and Kanata-kun (who I think is actually the best looking amongst the three, although I did (spoiler alert)marry Suzuya for his attitude AND his looks hahaha) he just looks like a friend. To me, at least. But after being overwhelmed by the game and that I'm actually playing it, with sexy voices being thrown around (because the game has Seiyuus OHMEGAD), I initially intended to go for him (even though my heart is torn between Suzuya-chan and Kanata-kun). 

Oh yeah, Yoh-kun's from France, btw.

Kanata-kun

So this is my dear Kanata-kun. Now I feel bad because I (spoiler alert) married Suzuya-chan. But then, I GOT SPOILED IN HUNTING THIS PICTURE OF KANATA-KUN!!! ARGHHH. Well, I'm terribly TERRIBLY (yes, I do feel the need to emphasize here) itching to do Kanata-kun's path. It's because my poor darling's sick and well, I'm in for a whole lot of drama, partly because he has this incurable disease and he doesn't want to be fussed over too much. He acts tough, really, he has his soft side. Sheesh, he's just like Kyo from Fruits Basket. I really cannot take this. (Since I have a weakness for seemingly bad guys who has a special spot for a girl they love. Hear that potential boyfriend? Hahaha.) 

But then I think I'll feel bad for honey Suzuya-chan when I choose Kanata-kun this time. It's like, I chose you first remember? And it feels kinda lonely to go on without being close to Suzuya-chan because I've found safety and bliss in his arms. UWAAH. Because you see, when you choose your destiny here, you end up having the friendship with the other guys but it doesn't really end up a notch higher anymore. That's it, you're talking and nothing more personal. You do get A WHOLE LOT personal with your chosen guy though. And no, this game doesn't have any P**** so you can relax. 


Oh yeah, now this guys, is my (spoiler alert) hubby.  Haha. He's a pretty amazing guy, and I'm sure he's the epitome of what girls like most in guys. Sweet, responsible, carrying, handsome, and a worrywart. Right, maybe not the worrywart part, but come on, don't you want a guy who fusses over you? It's rather sweet, I think. Although he does this so much that he does seem like a mom. But I don't care for that much for his caressing words. Sure they're romantic but I don't really like when he talks like that because after awhile it turns kinda... well, mushy. And totally corny. But beware. If you're for all that, his words might melt you. He melted me into a pudding. 


So those are the guys for Starry Sky In Spring. There are others 3 for Autumn, Fall, and Winter. They're different from my honeys here, but I saw that there's a specifically yummy guy from Winter. Which just makes me itching for the game. Oh yeah, SS In Spring has a sequel, SS After Spring. This is where all the fun starts because we'd do away with all the high school stuff. But still, there's no P scenes. I'm not really disappointed. I even think that's pretty cool. Yay for "clean and good" Otome games! 

Can't wait but I do want to get my hands on the After Spring game though. Advance Happy New Year guys!

Oh yeah, and if you want to play the game, here's a clear instruction:

And for my own instructions, you can check here. (Although I have to say my instruction is more newbie friendly because I have already encountered all the possible obstacles you can think of while downloading this game on my own. And believe me, there's a LOT. It's not as simple as it looks. But it's definitely rewarding.
