Colors TCG 4th Anniversary - Day 04

[astralfire]

Happy Colors Anniversary, players! Have you ever wanted people to tell you their favorite books, or movies, or television shows, but all they give you is a list of names or titles, and you have no idea if you'll like them?

The remedy for your pain is simple! They will now be required to tell you a synopsis instead! So for this discussion, everyone will comment with a brief (or not so brief) synopsis of their favorite manga or anime written by themselves! That means no copying and pasting the synopsis from the Internet! There should be no directors' names or writers' names or illustrators' names, and no titles in your comment! There should also really be no character names, or it will be too easy! You're trying to challenge your fellow Colors players!

Others can feel free to guess the title or name of the manga or anime you described, or you can go guess others', but don't worry, no one has to guess it in order for you to receive your rewards! Merely posting a synopsis will get you the prizes!

To sum up the rules:
● Post a self-written synopsis of your favorite manga or anime. (It can be an animated film too!)
● Don't include titles, directors, illustrators, or writers! Try not to include character names either, or it may be too easy of a guess!
● Here is a /r/books example of how to play.
● Feel free to go guess what other people's favorite manga or anime is!
● For your synopsis, you will receive fourstival04 and two random crayons!

Please use this form when making your comment!

Player name: Dialny
Synopsis: There's a small village in Japan's countryside where everyone knows each other. It's currently early summer and a group of friends is waiting for a local festival. But even though it should be all fun and games, a curse follows the festival; each year one person dies and another goes missing. Time after time the group's friendship is tested in various ways as they try to escape their dark fate.

To be honest, the visual novels are a lot better than the anime. Though the manga isn't a completely horrible adaptation...

[dialny]

The same can be said almost every time the original is compared with an adaptation, so I'm not surprised. I'm just not that used to visual novels and it's a bit harder to be able to play those. (I have no idea how the emulators or translations work) It would be nice to play them one day though. I loved the anime and manga was great too, so there's no way the original could be anything less than awesome. ^^

Well, I've never had a need to download an emulator for the series as far as I'm concerned, I only had to download the actual file and then open it up...

[triacedia]

They've been released for PC and translated to English, so it's not very hard, really. As long as you can live with the art. Just say if you want to play them at some point, hon, and we can arrange them for you.

cries a lot

My first exposure was the anime, so I am fond of it. I just couldn't deal with the art of the VN :C

[moes]

Threadjacking to say that yeah, the visual novel original art is pretty bad, which is why I actually played it with the PS2 patch.

[murkrows]

I only had a Mac at the time. I don't know if the PS2 patch was available. I'm kind of on hiatus from this series right now, but I might check out the PS2 patch on an LP or something when I get back.

[moes]

Well, that's good! I haven't found much luck in regards of a good LP even though I kind of want to reread the series, aha..

[lanvaldear]

I never finished the visual novels or the anime. I should really do that, huh.
