I like Hinako.
>>749498567kys autist
>>749498567me too
>>749498567Too bad her game died because of self insert faggot MC
I like Kokoro.
I will never forgive them for not making a good game
>>749501704Second Light's a 7/10. It's genuinely alright.
>>749501704The games have flaws, and it's easy to see how they could be better (especially the first entry,) but they aren't bad. I do wish they had focused on making a game series rather than turning it into a multimedia project, though.
>>749501510While I think having a male protagonist in a series about magical girls is a dumb idea, I doubt having a female protagonist in the gacha would have changed all that much in the grand scheme of things.
>>749498567Same
I ended up dropping Blue Reflection when I first tried it. Hinako and the soundtrack are the biggest reasons that I ended up giving it a second chance a few years later.
>>749501510I don't like the male main character either but her game isn't dead or anything, Blue Reflection is an offline game and it's not going anywhere (unlike the original version of Blue Reflection Sun), you can still play it if you want :)>>749503607A gacha game is a gacha game, I also doubt that a female protagonist would have changed much.>>749500321>>749503829She's great.
>>749505493They seem rather close here.
>>749503607Here, more Rika and her butt.
>>749502037I just want a magical girl anime...We were so close
>>749505520Ao and Hinako do have some pretty good interactions in Second Light. Choosing Hinako at the end feels like kind of a dick move, though, since that means interrupting what might be her last big conversation with Yuzu and Lime. Same deal with picking Rena or Yuki.
>>749505963That's why you pick Uta
>>749501526I'm sure you aren't the only one, Kokoro is the bustiest girl in the series after all.
>>749507031I ended up feeling like Uta and Kirara were the most fitting options, and of the two I'm more fond of Uta's character arc.Hopefully playable Uta will become a reality someday.
>>749498567For a second the thumbnail looked to me like a giant Hinako towering above the town.
>>749511271Semen pooling in the cleft...
>>749511340It's new official art, Mel Kishida definitely played with perspective a little but it's obvious that it's just a low angle that magnifies the character.>>749511349Huh?...okay.
>>749498567I want a third game that captures the scale of the show, i like how the Ray tech demo basically had you communicate with characters outside of the Common world, and fighting in various real world locations like the Church and stuff. Obviously more yuri is always good too, HBR does it great where the main character has a canon love interest baked into the plot but can still romance anyone else.
>>749512628I don't agree with having a canon love interest but still being able to romance other characters but everything else sounds great, the idea has potential.
>>749513904Well the game can have the first character introduced be canonically in love with the protagonist, and its up to the player if they want to romance them or not
>>749514073This sounds like a good idea, yeah.
Let me brainstorm hereFirst Girl — canonically in love with the protagonist from early on. She’s the emotional anchor and the “default” romance, but the player can choose not to reciprocate.Evil Magical Girl — romanceable only through a hidden route with specific flags. If you fail them, she dies. If you succeed, the story branches away from the main route and she survives/joins you, changing the final act.Side Couple — two main-party girls who gradually become a couple with each other and are therefore not romance options. This proves the game’s lesbian relationships exist independently of the protagonist.Operator — non-transforming support character who stays at the school/dorm/base, gathers intelligence, tracks Common activity, communicates with the team during missions, and becomes the stable “voice at home.”Returning fan favorite - Self explanatory, probably would be Yuzu and Lime again since the setting depends on them. What other archetype do we need?
>>749498567>>749513661FAGGOT
>>749514896Those two posts weren't even made by the same person...
>>749514768Childhood friend characterUta as the veteran character since she wasn't playable in the second game
>>749514768>The villain magical girl route reveals time travel, that the protagonist died in the past which is why she has no memory before being a magical girl and she wants to rule the common so she can revive her. Kino or not?
>>749516009Yes but only if the game splits off from the story and has you defect to the villains side and leave your friends behind
>>749518501Roka showing a little of cleavage with the track uniform...weird.
Any Blue Reflection thread should have Hinako's canon underwear.
This tier list again. That is all.
how do i date JKs
>>749498567I wanna fuck Hinako
>>749528038become a coach for volleyball
>>749520585Would Kokoro date a 30-year-old?
bra slider status?
>>749528642All the bras in the first Blue Reflection have them except Kei's bra.
>>749528642>>749528884It's important to stay up-to-date on such things.
>>749531592Of course, the bra a girl can wear is important and having sliders is basic stuff, a girl should wear comfortable underwear and they are related to said comfort after all, it's not just the varied and pretty designs. This sounds like something that would be posted by Hayama Nayu.Hinako, Shihori and Mao are the 3 characters who adjust their bras at least once.
>>749533421Resident Evil 9 happened on Rena's birthday. Weird coincidence.
What are our chances for a BR3?
>>7495389570.3%
Shiho...
>>749540456>Hinako disapproves (-2)
>>749538957Not great. On the one hand, Gust has spent a lot of time and effort trying to build up the IP, and they might have some reluctance to just abandon all that. On the other hand, some key personnel aren't around anymore, the western market is somewhat hostile to anything featuring schoolgirls even if they aren't particularly sexualized, and Gust seems to be in a position where they feel they have to go for mainstream appeal and can't afford to target niches or experiment anymore.
>>749538843I bet she's bad at handling horror games.
>>749511340LIME!
>>749540456She wanted to do what Shihori did in the first game.
>>749538957Don't hold your breath, I doubt they'll make it.
>>749547658Rare Hinako pantyshot with the Reflector outfit.
Should I play these if I like atelier?
>>749548573They are games made by the same developer but have different appeal, the Blue Reflection games are more emotional or melodramatic games for starters. Not like that's inherently a bad thing, it's just that not everyone likes emotional/sad stories, drama and stories that involve personal growth or character development.
>>749548573Depends on what you like about Atelier. Blue Reflection's strong points are primarily the character development/interactions and the aesthetics. Gust seems to suck at balancing games unless they're iterating on a formula they've used a bunch of times before, so while both Blue Reflection games have good base mechanics, the difficulty is low enough that there's not much incentive to really engage with them (barring the highest unlockable difficulty in Second Light.)BR1 is more unique and ambitious in terms of the mechanics, character-driven narrative, and general structure, and I actually like it more than Second Light, but it's harder to recommend due to its slow pacing and somewhat repetitive structure. Second Light is a more well-rounded game that doesn't quite manage to reach BR1's high points, but also lacks any notable flaws outside of the balance issues.
I am working on immortalising Male MC-sama's game in eigo.....
>>749550952Huh, cool I guess...
>>749551460Did you know Hinako's model in this version has shorts underneath? I saw it while going through the files. Can you believe it?
>>749551634Oh...that's unexpected. Then again, in Blue Reflection Sun, Lime's panties don't have the frills that look like a skirt for some reason, I shouldn't take anything for granted when it comes to returning characters and what they may have under their skirts.
>>749498567>Vampire Magical Girls who eat the "Flowers" (aka Soul/Life) of other Vampire Magical GirlsThey have the coolest setting ruined by bad decisions
>>749551803The graphics are nice, at least. I guess.
>>749552801Better than the PS Vita version of the first game but inferior to the graphics of Blue Reflection: Second Light even on Nintendo Switch (original version and the version of Quartet, doesn't matter), the original Blue Reflection Sun is definitely kind of in the middle when it comes to graphics in the series. It looks kind of nice, decent graphics at least.
>>749553176Behold. 1440p Hinako.
>>749553281Whoa...
>>749528642Yes.
>>749556367
>>749556590Kirara was talking about looking at panties though.
>>749559006Oh, Shihori.
>>749560736Cute.
>>749551634If Hinako has shorts underneath, then it may be closer to what Firis wears when she is wearing Hinako's uniform in Atelier Firis DX, with that outfit she wears black shorts or black bloomers or something...at most she's wearing black panties but they look simple and don't have a pattern or anything, in any case she's wearing something different and less eye-catching, not the panties Hinako wears in the console games which have a detailed design.
>>749538957High because it's a passion project
>Hinako is for Yuzu and Lime>Rena is in love with YukiWho is Ao's love interest? Is it Uta?
>>749565305I wouldn't say that Yuzu and Lime are ''love interests'' for Hinako, that said, Ao and Uta have great chemistry, so, sure, it's Uta.
>>749565305Yes it's clearly Uta or Hiori
>>749528405Whoa, okay...dang, I don't have that gif of a surprised Hinako.
>>749568820
>>749569007Yeah, that's the one, it works as a reaction gif depending on the post.
>>749568325With glasses she looks less intimidating.
>>749574249Wait did 2 have a proper loli?
>>749574290Um, Yuzu appears in every Blue Reflection game. There's also Yuki and Kirara, so, if ''loli'' doesn't mean ''child/kid character canonically speaking'' and instead it's ''female character that looks young and/or it's petite'', then yeah, Second Light has a few ''proper lolis''.
>>749574408Ah that's Yuzu, yeah I don't count her as a "proper" loli
>>749574554Okay, what about Lime, Yuki and Kirara then?
>>749574656Sorry, too tall, they're all about JK height
>>749574879Too tall? All those characters? Huh, okay.
>>749575152I mean they're all JKs and they're all similar heights, I thought it was a JS/JC
>>749575263The shortest character is 145cm and the tallest female character is 172cm, I wouldn't really say ''they're all similar heights'' but some of them could look like middle schoolers.
>>749575576Fair but they're all JKs at the end of the day, and I can't see them as non JKs.
