I love Isuka so right now I haaate you.

So at least there is an ikemen in the second route. The suffering will be less

[member=14781]Aquitaine[/member] omg what. That seems entirely unnecessary and over the top. How does that even benefit Claude?? I guess that explains why Lugar McBitington becomes interested in her though?

I can't decide whose route I want to shoot for next, Lugar or Maynard. If Maynard is Cyril's dad though, doesn't that make him the king? Or is he somehow not? Nobody seems to act like he is so I don't know. And I'm saving Turkeye for last since it seems to be everyone's favorite.

Do the sequels include the sub guys as options as well or is it just a singular route?

[Aquitaine]

I vote for not Lugar. No idea on Maynard but Lugar is super creepy.

Spoiler  Hidden:

He starts his interest because the MC is the saint and the church and the crown are in a political war

.

But claude's route is a super mess. At least rossiskaya's has good drama. 

[Vixey]

Lugar just seems like a huge tease, like he's more interested in making her flustered than actually wanting her and would probably be turned off by her falling for him and use the church as his excuse to get out of it. Yelisei at least genuinely had a crush and his innocent puppy love balanced out his manipulating yandere brother well. I can't imagine how Yuri's endings/sequel are because the entire route just made me want to get away from him as much as possible before I could even choose Yelisei. :/
Claude just seems full of himself and difficult to like. I would peg him as the "it ain't gonna suck itself" type.
Cyril seems hella annoying and bratty - it's not hot/cold, it's a yo-yo. A better played example of hot/cold would be Kite from Once Upon A Fairy Love Tail, in my opinion.
It's like they're all set up to make you hate the main guy and want the second guy instead. Except Asena I guess, I don't know.

[Arisa-chan]

Cyril is actually very nice and cute...
he just had something in his past that make him act a little bit dishonest...while in actual he's really shy 
Maynard...if he's ever get serious...you're gonna be swept already  and he's such a tease, too...

Claude sequel only has 1 bar...but Lugar and this another guy still be there to make some scene...
Actually...

Spoiler  Hidden:

their theme for sequel is basically the same (with Yuri sequel) but the role is reverse. I find this very interesting tho the MC is still an idiot and maybe Claude even the bigger idiot here

[Arisa-chan]

I love Isuka so right now I haaate you.

So at least there is an ikemen in the second route. The suffering will be less 

Don't be mistaken...of all this ikemen...I love Isuka the best  he's my fave
and what I said looks like a bunny..is this new guy...not Isuka of course  (Isuka more like snow wolf  )

[S.Sumire]

Does anyone understand what 'messages' they're referring to? is it the ones on the friend top?

[Vixey]

Arg I hope they don't mean saved event scenarios in the album? I mean I didn't think "messages" to friends even really got saved since you can only go back so far in your friend activity anyway. Honestly though I just have no clue what this could even be referring to in the context of their games. :/

Lugar/Lugal is fine for me, I just get confused with how he interacts with the MC. xD Ar first I hated Claude (he seemed like he was overconfident and cocky), but while playing his route in an alt. account I find him really sweet.

Yelisei is a big teddy bear. He's cute, huggable and super duper adorbs. xD I did not like Yuri very much at first glance, he was too assertive during the prolouge and the fact that he was a closet yandere just made me more scared of him. -_-

Cyril is cute in a way, imo. Maynard is funny and a tease. I enjoyed these two's interactions. ^^

But best route for me is Turkiye. Asena and Isuka - I love them so much. Though I hate Asena for being the "don't love me" and a bit emo type of guy, him a being a beast makes up for it lol. And Isuka, he's near perfect. I love his personality. @_@

[Aquitaine]

^ Your avatar is so cute, I love that character 

--

I don't know what's in the water in Rossiskaya but whatever it is I don't want to drink it.

OMG this route has more melodrama than a telenovela venezolana. What a complete mess but it was so entertaining.

So I finished Yuri good ending and he is such a creep in the last chapters. Someone tells me he is a psycho and I would have believed them.

Spoiler  Hidden:

So he decided to confront Yelisha and the super creep Sasha. He lets Yelisha decide if he wants to kill him while Sasha cheers him to kill his brother. Mary Sue, wait the MC, gets in the middle but Yuri saves the day and no one gets hurt.

Then in the hospital Yuri forgives Sasha  (I can see him using Sasha for the worst jobs but I would have preferred a worse ending for him). Yelisha goes back to his naive and stupid self again and all is happy between the crown princely couple. The end.

So it was quite obvious what was gonna happen with Yuri against Yelisha depending on the end you choose. Also Yelisha is super naive to be controlled like that by his brother. Thankfully he was protected by Sasha all those years if not he wouldn't have lasted long in Rossiskaya's court. 

The route was very entertaining, much more than Claude's, but the MC role here is very forced. She was in a very bad situation from the start and not prepared for the psychos and the idiot but falling in love with any of the two is such a bad idea. This route is so wrong in so many ways.  My personal fantasy is that she is super scheming and was waiting to see who was the best bet to be king so she could be queen. 

[Vixey]

Ah, it is interesting to hear about the other side of the Rossisk.. Russia route, since I only played Yelisei.

Spoiler  Hidden:

After the incident in the woods it all went downhill from there and Yuri became more and more alarming to me. He's been my first experience with yandere since I learned the term. Was it difficult for you emotionally to stay on his side for the rest of the story? He's a creepy, psycho, perverted guy who would give me chills when he made any physical contact or would get that...look...in his eyes. But I also found him fascinating and definitely not a typical otome love interest. Did he calm down at all in the end? For me he got scarier and scarier up until that confrontation with his brother and Sasha. Who by the way SHOULD have been shot. I would have grabbed the gun and done it myself! I was pissed that Sasha kept his job. Grrr. I bet he's still scheming in Yuri's sequel, no doubt.

[Arisa-chan]

in Yuri's sequel

Spoiler  Hidden:

looks like Yuri become more tame? He's more considerable towards MC and Sasha seems help him, too. But knowing Sasha, he still worry Yelisei the most
The other guy who happened an actor and saved MC from accident actually a decent guy...unlike the new creepy guy at Claude route (I swear Lugar got another twins there  )

[Vixey]

Do the sequels let you pick the secondary guy as well? Or are they just singular routes. I need more Yeliseiii

[Arisa-chan]

nope..it's just a single route
Yuri's more likable here....while Claude...I hate him in his sequel
He's like no bone at all...blegh....

[Vixey]

So far I think the only main guy of the original 3 that I'm liking is Cyril. I've been warming up to him in the recent events, he's been pretty cute. I have no idea what Asena is like he seems rather normal, and I didn't ever get to him in the smut event haha. Since he has been off the radar as we're doing some of the translated older events, I've already forgotten what he and his vampire-looking pal are like. I think I'm gonna do Flanelia next, then Ingrays, then Turkiye. I keep telling myself I'll start when there's a lull in events from my games but clearly I'm dreaming there lol.

Arisa, for the sequels can you only select them right after finishing the first story? I have the option to continue to Yuri's sequel after finishing Yelisei's good/royal end (doesn't really make sense, should only unlock after completing Yuri's I feel like but whatever). If I pick another route next, would I have to replay Rossiyskaya again before being able to select Yuri's sequel? I'm curious now after hearing about it~
