I think that Solmare game artists create prettier CGs than Voltage games. But considering how we know the names of the artists for all of the big name otoge of Japan, you would think that they are credited somewhere for these phone games. If I knew the artists' names, I would definitely go and stalk their blogs. I do that already with my favorite otoge artists.

Munenori probably has servants to comb his hair. XD I would not be shocked, since it is that time period.

You know I can imagine most of these guys with long hair getting it brushed for them. But I want to know what shampoo they use.

Btw who are your fave otoge artists? What ones do they do? If you don't mind me asking.

[Aiwethryne]

*whisper whisper* That is the poll question I wanted to create in the Polls section, but I am still gathering links so that people who don't know these people can see the art. But I'm having trouble limiting it to ten choices.

[LadyAyaRose]

More than Ten choices? Woah how many you got under your jacket?

[Aiwethryne]

I have nineteen choices... But I'll need to take away ten because I am going to include the "Other" option. I actually did a little bit of research a long while back to see what other people said more often so that I don't just choose all of my personal favorites. Poll making was the reason why I wanted to know the artist of this and the other NTT Solmare and Voltage games. The poll I am currently making is not for phone otoge artists, and given how this forum is primarily for people who play otome games on phones, I imagine that they would need some references.

I like the artwork in NL and the clothing designs are marvelous.
Kotaros belt is sublime! =D

Another thing I always wonder about is their ages.
It's all very uncertain...
Saizo says that girls in his village get married when they are 12 and MC is older than that!
Sasuke is younger than MC but how much? He seemes grown enough!
Kotaro is 4 years older but how old was he 5 years ago

Spoiler  Hidden:

when he had the relationship

?
Saizo and Sasuke are childhood playmates, but how many years difference are there between them?
In the beginning Goemon says that he is "the youngest" which later proves wrong. Must be a proofing-error.
Saizo and Goemon seems to be around the same age, maybe.
Musashi is probably just a few years older (like Kotaro, but who knows).
Nobunaga, Munenori, Rennoshin and Hanzo all refers to them selves as "much older" at some point or another. At that time you were old at 35 and got married very early, so what do they mean with "old"?
Well, these things just keep bugging me when I read, I want to make things fit in with eachother and at least be plausible. *lol*

I like to have His Point of View (Thats why I read NL+) even if it's mostly about

Spoiler  Hidden:

sex! For some reason, guys show their love mostly with sex! And they really cultivate the idea that an man knows when a woman wants it even if she says NO! MCs advances are few and he always takes over in he end.

*annoyed* I am sure there were women with backbone of there own at that time too! The men were out fighting so they had to survive by themselves in some way!

And... Hanzos story is way to short!
I wanted it to be as long the others. *sighing*

I didn't get an answer anywhere, is there a order that the spin offs go? im ping kotaro if tat makes a bit of difference?

No difference on story, but you can't get the avatar. For example from Spin Off 2nd Mission for Love, you won't get Kotaro's wallpaper unless you get both Kotaro and Musashi SHE

[katarinna]

ah okay. then ill just play them in any order then. ^_^ thank you

I also have an issue with how vague they are about continuity, but I just assume that the MC is 16 because that is when shoujo manga dreams always come true. It does not seem all that shocking that Kotaro would have had a

around age 15... But Sasuke being younger was always strange, especially because of the whole childhood friends thing. Since Sasuke said he was something like five (or was it ten?) in the spinoff where Saizo was said to have locked him in a chicken coup, it would make sense that Sasuke would tease Saizo for being freaked out by

if they were nearer the same age.

Pfft. People were old in their mid-20s back in the day, but Ren

Spoiler  Hidden:

did not want to be in a relationship

and Hanzo was just too awkward and dumb towards Kuma all his life. Munenori being the youngest of his four older brothers and apparently having someone he was set to marry (though I never read of this person after the MC took over his life), I like to think he was in his 20s. He'd often get offended by being called an old man in Musashi's route, too.

If you want to go strictly by the technical sense, there is how Nobunaga (47 at Honno-ji), Hanzo, Kotaro, Goemon, Musashi, etc. were real historical figures. And Nobunaga has his adult son. Visual novel writers like to stretch legend.
