LIly LYric cyCLE>>https://archive.wakarimasen.moe/u/thread/2405678/thread died
This thread is gonna die soon.
>What is Ririkuru?Ririkuru is a franchise that started out as a series of drama CDs but then went on to get a visual novel which was picked up and translated by Mangagamer.>Where do I start?That's a good question. Obviously the two choices are starting with the drama CDs or with the VN. I would recommend the former, as the VN doesn't really bother with introducing the characters too much. Unfortunately of the drama CDs relevant to the VN only half are translated - Vols 1, 2 and 3. Translated by anons from /u/ I might add as somehow Mangagamer figured they don't wanna bother. 4, 5 and 6 remain untranslated but there are sequel CDs to Vols 1-2-3 that cover Winter and Summer activities of the three couples and those CDs are translated.If you plan to start with VN I strongly suggest to listen to the drama CDs when you hit relevant story events in the VN - each couple has their own and they share the title with the drama CDs.
I'm gonna have to play this game, I know it supposedly isn't very good, but still, it deserves it.
This is like buying a new cat the day after your 15 year old cat you had since you were a baby died.

>>3649128If we're allowed to go for round 2 on this then can we have a yurirei thread as well?
>>3649277This hits way too close to home, kindly go fuck yourself anon.
>>3661938I only wanted to prove a point to the OP, I'm sorry anon.
>>3654833This is technically Round 3/4.
Started the game just the other day and I'm really enjoying it so far.My favourite pairing at the moment is Hina x Ayame, but Tama-chan is the cutest thing in the world.
A pale imitation of an ancient being
>>3715633It's always like that in the beginning. Gotta look at the long term though.
So did anyone buy and listen to 少女軌道のリユニオン? Been out for almost a week now. I'm thinking about it, but the price is, as usual for Particle, on the steeper side for audio dramas.
>>3741504I've been keeping an eye on it but somehow I found myself looping through not being in the mood to sit down and listen to it even though I have the time and being in the mood but not having the time. I'll get there eventually. They chose a pretty elaborate setting considering it's yuri audio dramas, kinda curious what they did it.Do share your opinion if you ever get around to listening to it yourself.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uYe-2B-PRoApparently Particle is dead. The parent company, Pencil, is focusing on its core revenue streams (something which is quite common in the current recession period), and Particle sales were relatively small, to nobody's surprise. Pencil doesn't want to take risks on new projects with an inherently smaller audience. A VN based on LLC Heart was planned, but is now cancelled.Fumiya is saying that the sales of LLC Heart and Reunion weren't that bad, they were just worse than Pencil's 18+ and otome games, and the company needs to cut expenses so it naturally chose to cut the worse performers. As a result, Fumiya chose to leave the company (the company let Particle exist as long as it's not in the red and Fumiya helps out elsewhere, without Particle he's not terribly motivated to work on that other stuff).
Finally finished the VN.Tamaki x Saeka were truly the cutest.
Is there a mega/mediafire folder with all of the audio dramas floating around? I checked everywhere I could think of and couldn't find anything. Price on booth is a bit to high for me to personally justify it.
>>3760923>glasses
>>3767160Ah fuck my dumbass forgot to mention I did find the first 6 on an old /u/ post.https://mega.nz/folder/WypBSZpR#OGuKoihtbktte8LWEM2tjwI also ripped the 7th one bundled with the physical copy of the VN if anyone is interested.
>>3767160I'm thinking of importing the discs, as indeed the DLsite/Booth prices even with sales (15%... haha...) and coupons are a bit too much, and even with shipping and import taxes physical might end up being cheaper. All I bought digitally were the new SF ones, yet to listen to them though.
>>3769278You should upload those as well.I did check yahoo auctions a few days ago and only found a couple CDs but best of luck.
Bought two random CDs from yahoo auctions and ripped them. About 13 minutes of content between the two of them. If I get my hands on more stuff I'll continue to share them here. https://mega.nz/folder/YeUHzRgD#6-yjcytr-3cZJH3bMqCYMQhttps://mega.nz/folder/NDkn0CQa#9_J3sE9rx1VWmg7V6q3cvAAlso I'll mention here that JapaneseASMR uploaded a few.https://japaneseasmr.com/?s=%E3%82%8A%E3%82%8A%E3%81%8F%E3%82%8B
>>3649142>the VN doesn't really bother with introducing the characters too muchSounds like a bit of a misstep if they want to attract newcomers
>>3816676Why do you think the VN bombed? Normally, with those voice actors alone, you get a certain audience. But they not only had a really terrible writer for what they were going for, they also didn't give a shit about getting new people in.Kinda sad, but alas. It's not rare for companies to splurge for voice actors, but forget how important the writer is. For a drama CD this might still be okay, but for a VN.. it's harsh to go bottom tier, given that even average is not really that good with VNs.
Happy New Year thread
>>3649142Are there any good fanfics?
Am I too late for this? Anyone here got the collection from nyaa? Could you seed for a bit
>>3715633Every flower was once a tiny seed, nee-san.
Here is your hat.
Does anyone have vol.7 of the CDs that came included with the limited edition of the game? That's the only one I'm struggling to track down for a reasonable cost, out of things that aren't store specials.Its Japanese title is りりくるVol.7『輝く!? スターの条件!』It's available as part of the game on booth, but I already have the digital game elsewhere (MG version is just plain superior even for playing in JP), and spending 6k yen for basically just the mp3 release is a bit more than I'd like. Used game boxes float around here and there, however it's always in a "tokutens probably missing lmao" state, so there's a big risk that it's a waste of money.
>>3800534I would be really grateful if you could reupload these, the folders now show up as empty (probably because of some copyright strike).
May thread
Is this ever getting an anime?
>>4237004No, the franchise is officially dead, and its creator left the company that was funding it. The reason according to Fumiya was something like "it's not that Lilycle is in the red, but in this shitty post-covid economy we have to brutally optimize, so we'll consolidate around our stronger franchises" (there was a livestream on youtube where he talked about that in vague terms). He was assisting with other Particle projects in exchange for being able to do Lilycle, so he had no reason to stay anymore. Currently seems to be busy doing various contract work (the latest was a script for an Arknights drama CD), so no new yuri from Fumiya for the time being, although he's low-key working on a novel that seems Lilycle-ish in style.>>4120658I did actually get Vol. 7 along with the game disc. I'll be compiling an archive of what I have, which is (almost?) all of the main discs, plus a few digital releases to fill the gaps, some music, and a few specials, but I'll really appreciate it if someone can share the specials that were uploaded here earlier, or any other ones. Nearly all of the specials are also available digitally on Booth and DLsite in various package deals, but I'm just not yet ready to shell out 2800 per disc only to get the specials (which will amount to well over 20k yen), at least not all by myself.I'd also love to translate the discs that are still untranslated, but I'm just not sure if I'll have the time and energy for that any time soon.
>>3715633>A pale imitation of an ancient beingWhich ancient being would that be?
>>4270249My fave pair.
>>4078923Preview looks like a moustache.
So, I'm trying something for fun. I'll be gradually filling up the folder as I go, until I run out of space there.https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Lqzn_S5JUVTNgjuXgLIz-XaaOCWA5Dpd?usp=sharingI know translations of 1-2-3-summer-winter already exist, but this is a therapy of sorts for me, so I'm starting from the first one anyway.Normally I wouldn't post it having only done the first file of the first CD, but this is the first time I'm muxing an .mka with subs and cover art so that it plays as if it were a subbed video (in mpv at least) and I want to know what I did wrong before I mux more.
