Another Day
Another busy day at work finishes - while i had planned to get a heap of work done at home, once coming home and sitting down is no good coz it drains away my energy to do work ... not good! It is starting to get rather stressful at work in terms of everything involved and its reached the extent where i reach my desk and start panicing which doesnt happen very often --;; despite it though, i do a line or two when possible of the Dn translations and manage to get through the day. Tomorrow happens to be a packed schedule so il be standing from start to finish; better wear shoes that wont kill me so much or else il be sorry this time tomorrow...
Desparately wanting the akapera version of hitomi wo tojite but unable to get it at this stage T_T something to send me quietly to sleep and then to wake me up quietly in the morning.... gawd i love oshitari... never thought my tenipuri moe would last this long and although i detoured to fuji and nioh along the way, and more recently to Tezuka, the kansai megane is the one i lurve!

With all that has happened....
1. Yura on the floor.....
I had the pleasure today of having the dear cooked food of the beloved yura. pizza. there is nothing better than home made pizza and mashed potatoes filled with love... (stuffed?) While i ate the pizza, yura continued to make her pair on smash hit 2 "sleeping zone" (guess who - named by yura) and coincidently, oshitari got blown away by the knuckle serve.... as he fell, i immitated his groan, which apparently sounded quite alike.... and lead yura into a fit for the next 15 minutes (still continuing from memory flash backs....)
2. The Grudge 2 (a few spoilers)
I probably enjoyed the first one over the second one but it was rather thrilling and although it took a while for the story to piece itself together, it was a good watch. もう管理人どっきどき！？怖い・・・っていうかさ、悠螺の手ぇ握ってどっきどき？っていうかしなかったらちょっときつかったかも（苦笑）。I'll probably talk about the movie a bit more later because i dont want to spoil too much now. though, i do have a few things to say:
- I didnt know people in the mountains in Japan spoke FLUENT English
- Go Kayoko! We'll see you in the game centre soon
- Yes, Sarah can get around all of Japan despite not speaking a word of the language
- Go the journalist, i thought you were awesome!

The Oshitari DN...
The Oshitari Dn will be up as soon as Yura gives the translations a thumbs up. oh my god, i cannot believe i am still awake after all that;s happened today at work; i was soooooo tired i was almost dozing off at my desk. but no, of course, after reading the Dn at work i was forced with an adrenaline rush which has kept me going until i finished translating it which is precisely now *laughs*. I was wanting to write a Gackt one before i started translating this one but that turned out to be a failed attempt coz Oshitari would NOT leave my head.
seriously, this is the best Dn for a Oshitari fan like me so i was thanking and praising yura over the phone for the job too damn well done! by far my most fav Dn 笑
The days of me saving money for a house with a pool (as requested by yura) continues and continues lol.... will that day ever come, i really dont know 苦笑

A job well done?
Currently translating the Jirou Dn for the HENKAN ODAI and having a fair bit of fun. In the midst of it though, of course, I ended up making a blog for the beloved yura while being on a phone conference with her and miracously changing my own at the same time lol. Listening to absolutely no music tonight as i work away in silence; i guess a quiet working environment is the best thing for me since my workplace is never ever EVER (emphasis added) quiet lol.
I'm reallllllly keen to write a Dn based on the song "together with" by Spiky (where masa went after quitting the gackt job) but I can't think of a good plot - planning to write it on Akaya though.
Trying to get work done at the same time which is proving to be a challenge. Reading the surveys have been very meaningful, and i have to say, reading bbs messages brings me back to life. gotta love it. sometimes you wonder whether people actually read things on the site without it, so thanks once again if you have posted! better get back to work/translating before the night ends!

Talk about taking ages to get it right....
After much fiddling I finally finish coding absolute * zero. yay... thankyou teko for always helping me debug the last of the errors; i'm not exactly illterate on computers (im not doing bad for someone my ages me thinks) but it's not like i'm the best at it (though i wish i was)! Long day at work today too - but tomorrow will be longer so i should really just get myself into bed because to be quite honest, i am very very tired and i have a lot to do at work - so why spend the time coding lol. coz im an idiot!
日本語も晴れて書ける事だし・・・めでたしめでたし。さて・・最近また日本では学校関係や子供関係で複雑な事が起きてるようで・・・物騒なものだねぇ、本当に。そんな中異国ではせかせか仕事をしながら、暇があればドリを翻訳したり書いたりしてる管理人がいるんだけどね（苦笑）。今日は仕事で初・会議をひらいたり、リーダーに担任を任せられたりと、色々な意味で充実した一日だったよん。

Rush and Dream with a trial
Since it got taken off -0 and since i need to trial a post, why not stick it back up lol
This is not a translation of the official walkthrough. This is like a play diary of Rush & Dream according to Yura and Kyoh's experience. We suspect it will work most cases, but we can't guarantee that this will be a perfect walkthrough, not to mention we (moreso Yura) haven't clocked it with all characters yet. It is a general walkthrough; not a walkthrough for each character as the way you get into each route appears to be quite constant across a range of and most characters.
RoutesThe Perfect Route (PR): the best possible route to go through. The characters are warm, friendly and loving from start to end. This route involves being carried to the clinic and a subsequent event.
The Tensai (genius) Route (TR): the route which involves the main character becoming big headed about her tennis skills and calling herself a genius. As a result, the male tenipuri character you are trying to get starts to think coldly of you and will say some harsh things to you. Their attitude is generally cold until the 4th day.
The Dame-Dame Route (DR): the route in which the main character becomes very unconfident in herself and develops very low self-esteem.
How to get these routes:Perfect Route: it depends on the character, however, the point is to go on walks during the night. Some characters will have events, others will not. For example, Atobe's PR is full of events so it's quite important to go on walks almost every night. In contrast, other characters will require less walks. This is just about trial and error and lots of resets. Generally:
Going on walks on the second day is important
It is vital that you win ALL your games
Indicators:
The main character will comment on the fact that she isn't happy about her tennis on the 3rd day in the afternoon
The main character will get carried to the clinic on the 4th afternoon
Tensai Route: Go on winning at least the first two games without going on walks, increasing your status instead. You will know you are on the TR when the tenipuri characters:
Become cold
The main girl talks about your tenipuri character being harsh to Masami
After your game with Jackal and Bunta, the tenipuri character you are after will have a game with you and you will lose
As a result, the main character realises that she is no genius and plans to run away. Your tenipuri character should come and chase you (from here onwards the tenipuri character will be nice to you)
Dame-Dame Route: I have only done this with two characters (Shishido) (Oshitari), but point being, just keep loosing all your games.
The Pairs you playDay 01: Kiraku (Midoriyama) & Hiyoshi (Hyoutei)Day 02: Yoshikawa (Yamabuki) & Minami (Yamabuki) / Kisarazu Atsushi (St Rudolph) & Yanagizawa (St Rudolph) (only when getting St Rudolph characters) Day 03: Kabaji (Hyoutei) & Tottori (Hyoutei)Day 04: Jackal (Rikkai) & Bunta (Rikkai)Day 05: Minami (Yamabuki) & Higashikata (Yamabuki)Day 06: Varies according to character. Sometimes this will play against the character you are trying to getDay 07: Usually Ryouma (Seigaku) & Masami (Seigaku) / Can be Hayakawa (St Rudolph) / Yoshikawa (Yamabuki) & Minami (Yamabuki) (if going for Sengoku & Ryouma)

After contemplating with yura, I have decided to make minus zero solely for updates and have moved all personal comments to minus absolute zero (yura's is sub-temperature zero).
