Let's talk about Shall We Date?: Ninja Assassin+~!

I mainly want to rant about this game outside of the walkthrough section. I do too much of that, so here's a separate section.

As of today in-app, Hotaka, the newest character, was announced. When I saw news of him a month ago, I honestly thought he might end up with pink hair. I was not far off... As things go, we have a hair rainbow forming, though Hotoka's hair looks particularly hot pink.

Black = Soji
Blue = Aoi
Purple = Sion
Brown = Wakasa
White = Natsume
Red = Hotaka
Green = Kinshiro
Light Brown = Ichika
Platinum Blonde = Willem

I want Willem (personally, his name should be Wilhelm) to have his own route, as well. He always seems to have his way, more or less, anyway. After nudging a bit of his background story through Natsume's route, I can only wish~ I keep hoping that the reason some of these later characters are released is because they are featured in other main routes at some point. So far, however, it is the same cast every time, with no mention of the other vigilantes until select spinoff stories. It makes them feel like an afterthought to me.

For the most part, I thoroughly enjoy this game's stories. I am always surprised by the graphic bite of the script, in that limbs are often being chopped off with blood spurting everywhere. The romantic build obviously experiences time lapse, which is like the writers' excuse to skip over certain emotional transitions. I suppose that is what spinoffs are for. The protagonist is not nearly as infuriating as other MCs (but as dense as ever). Perhaps it is due to the fact that she is not yet another sheltered princess, even if the time period is still full of reservations regarding women.

Out of all of NTT Solmare's SWD franchise surrounding historical Japan (Ninja Love, Destiny Ninja, Mononoke Kiss), this is probably my favorite of the lot. However, something in me will not get over how this is a story of revenge. A lingering bitterness comes to mind, as many of us live in a place where such extremes would not possibly be taken. But, in their world, death is the most practical solution.

The colorfulness reminds me of Power Rangers or Kamen Rider and other Super Sentai shows.

Being Vigilantes also reminds me of vigilante missions in GTA and Hitman games. lel

I totally called the high probability that Hotaka would be released almost immediately after the event period. So glad I didn't use my energy earlier. I am only going for the Happy Ending after seeing that we get the avatar of him. But OMG it's a higher charm item. Strange that it's for the lesser end.

I was helping in the aluminum/bronze pouring process in class today and took a plethora of pictures. My habit astounded everyone who wanted to look through my collection because 6000+ images in my phone gallery from just a week was way more than most people would take in months. I took about 200 photos and a couple videos of that class event alone.

After my teacher was scrolling, I then realized. Shoot. Smack in the middle of those photos was a screenshot of this game's Top Page. As soon as I noticed that the top image changed to Hotaka being all 'I'm gonna look like I'll kiss ya,' I compulsively screenshotted it while in the middle of metalworking. OTL She saw that. But she said nothing, even though I saw her expression crease on multiple occasions. Once I retrieved my phone, I instantly separated the class photos into a separate folder so that no one else would see my guilty pleasure. Not that they don't already know that I play dating sims.


But Hotaka... I am not all that fond of him already. All the touchy-touchy. I only want to rub my cheek against his soft face myself. And I must see him in female-mode. Cross-dress more, man! Hurry, hurry!

That new Ichika avatar! The developer is taunting us by not releasing him yet. Why add that avatar the week that Hotaka had his premier? Guess they want to make people overly excited for the future of releases.

Is anything new happening in this game?

I seem to be utterly indifferent towards the characters and all the events - their constant events made me stop play and now the game wants an update and won't run otherwise. Is the update really worth it? Did they make any big changes?
I'm really leaning towards quitting, since none of the characters made an impression on me...

Ufuu~ Opinions. Well, if the previous guys lacked any impact, I doubt you'd find much stock in the others. They are all incredibly linear when it comes to the stereotypes.

When was this update? I might not have noticed it happen before I changed my phone's setup to not do auto updates. Only ever saw MFWP do the 'you must update or you can't play' thing for something as simple as, err, I don't remember what.

Thank you, then it probably isn't for me. I really didn't get anything from this game and I really was trying to like it, but it just didn't happen.

Well, I don't know for sure, probably about a week ago or so, at least for Android, it just showed me there's a new update and that I have to install it to play, so I said no... The same thing happened before for Destiny Ninja, but a long time ago.

I neeeeed to know. Does Hotaka ever wear a woman's wig in his route? Only Aoi has his hairstyle change for his bed head. Does he change his clothing for the actual performance? I was really hoping that he would go full woman for the play, but it looks like he'll only be doing the male role this route.

And his ninja gear looks bleh against his hair. The MC has bad tastes to find that attractive... imo. It's the same color as Natsume's ninja outfit! I'd seriously be way happier if he wore a pink assassin garb thing.


I saw the new campaign avatar prizes in Ninja Assassin and my immediate thought was that the swept, blonde hair and "glacial" blue dress scream Elsa from Frozen.

I also thought Elsa from Frozen for the new avatar items, which is why I wanted them xD But only being at like 950, doubt that'll happen.

Not a happy camper right now...during last night's x3 collection event, I decided I NEEDED Aoi's sick event story. The preview of the CG in the upper left looked beautiful, and Aoi's my favorite, so I really really wanted it. Dropped 60 bucks, and it was the 12th thing I got (still have 10 event dice left, saving them) So I go to read the story, all excited...and it was the biggest letdown of this entire game so far. It was terribly short, and just ends with MC falling back asleep. It was barely even passable for being "cute". But, surely the CG would have made up for that...IF THERE WAS ONE. I couldn't believe it...I should have known since the other event stories won from collection events didn't have CGs, but I thought since you had to pay to get this, it'd have a CG. So disappointed and frustrated with the lost money...on the bright side I did get 3 of the male avatars (Aoi, Sion, and Hotaka), but man did that suck...I got all but 2 of the event stories, so might as well read them and see if they're as bad as Aoi's was...

Aside from that, Willem avatar release! I wonder if that means he'll get a route? If Ninja Love can have Nobunaga and Destiny Ninja can have Noritsune, Ninja Assassin can have Willem xD

Omg Hotaka got me into this game.  So much pink!  I love his "oh shit" face too.  Now though....they got me stuck with a dang checkpoint!  GRRRRR :ninja2:  They want 10 purses and I only have 5?!!!  GRRRGRRR!!!  GRRR!  But I need more Hotaka. :sweat:

ah well, I keep training and I switched to Nanami for now.  I don't like switching character routes as it goes against my RP/story vibe, but they were doing double points last night and I wanted those double points.

I saw this on Facebook and felt that I had to share it with y'all. X'D

Spoiler  Hidden:
"Producer K's Dev Notes #62

Hi everyone! It's me, Producer K, who came to work today listening to Meghan Trainor. 'Bout that bass, no treble. We get fat when we're cold, don't we!

Today we got curious who the most popular male character is in Ninja Assassin+, so we had our ladies in the dev team who their favorite character is!

↓the result↓

Yozo 2 votes
Soji 1 vote
Natsume 1 vote
Sion 1 vote
Sion's father 1 vote

What?! The most popular character is Yozo?!!! They say they love his evil grin! lol

And Sion's father... that's quite a taste she's got there, isn't it... He has no picture of himself, but she can still love him! Amazing!

When we were chatting about our result, a screenplay plotter told me...
That Akagi and Inokashira that appeard in the spin-off "The Hidden Side of Soji", are named after two of the screenplay plotters. I'm the producer and even I didn't know that(=´Д`=)ゞ

Man, they could have at least asked me and named them after "Producer K"...

Well, gotta get back to work now. C ya!"
Spoiler  it's an image of Tori, bleh. You've been warned:
