Yeah, yeah, Suzaku gameplay yay. Usually when I play dating sim games, I tend to go for my favourite characters as
summer88 has mentioned XD;; and then neglect the rest. But then I saw a Suzaku-Rai CG in an ad so I was :OOO I WANT THAT CG and ended up playing Suzaku's route in the Britannian chapter. orz
And speaking of going for favourite characters...
I AM CLEARLY BIASED.
Anyway, Suzaku's route (Britannian chapter) gameplay Part 1.
Actually I played Kallen's route before Suzaku's, but I kind of liked Suzaku's route more because it's funnier. Kallen's route kind of made me DOKIDOKI even though I'm a girl dammit but maybe it's the dating element that's making me excited
The starting was the same, you/me collapsing in front of Lulu and Milly. So I didn't bother taking pic of that part. I used the default name Rai for Suzaku's route.
Going straight to poking Suzaku wherever and whenever I can find him 8D This is during evening or night.
Suzaku: Eh? What are you doing in such a place? Rai.
I say it's the same for him fufufu. So I ask about his uniform too.
Suzaku: Ah, this outfit? That's right.... I haven't told you yet, but I am doing work for the military.
Suzaku: Well, you could say it's sort of helping out... but that aside, what were you doing?
I have come to talk to you, what else. D:
Before school, I think, and apparently Suzaku's in the library looking for a book. I AM BAFFLED.... or something, so I call out his name.
Suzaku: Shhhh! This is the library, so you can't speak in such a loud voice, Rai.
Rai: (ME) Oh no, I know that but it's because I never expected to meet you in such a place, so I was a little surprised.
SUZAKU'S BLUSHING FACE. :OOOOOO I think this is from when he asks if I could help him find a book. I'm a nice transfer student, so I said ok.
Suzaku: Thanks, that helps.
Sometime after school, I think this is when I met Suzaku at one of the ghettos... or me poking my nose around and him going "wtf are you doing here" at me or something. Either way, we bump into some Britannian soldier guy.
He's probably thinking that we look suspicious, hur hur.
Brittanian soldier: ...Do what you like!
Suzaku: It's better if you don't come here. I understand your feelings that you want to go to a lot of places in order to get back your memories but...
Suzaku: ...Just some time before, the military and terrorists had a battle here.
Either before or after school.
Suzaku: I seem to be meeting you in a lot of places ne, Rai.
B-But I want to be gay for you so I have to talk to you as often as I can. :(
On another day, he brings me to one of those... big army vehicle thingies.
Suzaku: Ah, Cecile-san.
Ahhhh Cecile-san! Are you dateable? O_o? I have no idea which characters you can go for in this game.
Anyway Suzaku tells the whole long story about me and OMG LOST MEMORIES and they're trying to determine whether I'm a Japanese or a Britannian.
Cecile: Well, first of all, I will have to take some data regarding your body. Please take a seat over here.
While getting (wo)manhandled or something...
Lloyd: Hello~ I am Lloyd Asplund. Nice to meet you, Rai-kun.
The results of searching data on my body...
Lloyd: It doesn't bring up any ID hits? Fuuum, that's very mysterious. You, when you woke up, you were in the Toukyou (Tokyo) Settlement, right?
I think what he means by "ID hits" is that since I have no memories of who I am, Cecile gets data (DNA and stuff maybe) from my body and then runs the data through a database to see if there are any results of a person with matching data = it's me!
He continues his babbling.
Lloyd: Who knows. Maybe you could be a prince from a mysterious country? Ne, Rai-kun.
Triangle = Don't kid with me and X = You're a very funny person, so I pick X.
Lloyd: Yup, that's well said.
Suzaku says something to me. I try not to take pics of every single thing but I wish I remember what's going on here Dx This is what I get for posting this almost a month after I played
Rai: Ah, that's fine. I'll go back now. You have work here, don't you?
At school.
Suzaku: Lloyd-san mentioned that he wants to meet you once more.
Lloyd has the hots for me hahaha I kid. I think he just views me as a test subject >_>
Suzaku: Yeah, he didn't give any reasons, but when he said that he wanted to see you, he seemed rather happy.
Suzaku: Even though there are times where I don't know, but he doesn't seem like a bad person.
Yeah Suzaku, even you think that Lloyd is strange. XD
So I have no choice but to meet up with Suzaku after school to go to that... military vehicle thingy. Lloyd's all fufufu "I have something to show to you" and then I don't remember what happened, but! He says something which makes Cecile go :( heh. I think I may have mentioned this in the first Geass gameplay post or a Corda one... who knows.
Lloyd: Eh? Why can't I? :(
Cecile: ...Should I tell you? :DDDDD?
Lloyd: No, I'll pass.
I LOLed.
Here's Lloyd's blushing face.
Cecile is kinda freaky when she's too NIKO NIKO.
At... a church? I have no idea. Suzaku couldn't be found anywhere in the menu, so I decide to talk to Milly. And she ask me about girls, so I play flirty, fufufufu.
Rai: That's right. But I think the Number One girl is Milly-san.
I was actually expecting her to blush or something, but apparently not.
Milly: What are you saying? In that case, you should turn up at the student council more often, so that you can look at my face.
But I have military obligations!!! D:
Lloyd wants to use me as a guinea pig again... or something.
Cecile: You can't do that, Lloyd-san!
Lloyd: Eh? Why not?
Of course Cecile goes all :( at him again, so.
*pats Lloyd* I think around this part of the game, I have already entered the Britannian chapter and being made a pilot.
Going to disturb Suzaku again at one of the ghettos.
Suzaku: ... I... in order not to forget that I am a Japanese, I come here to look once in a while.
This is probably a side of Suzaku you won't get to see in the anime, I guess. I mean, sometimes I do wonder why he's on the Britannian side, and if he doesn't "feel" Japanese anymore.
Anyway advancing further into the Britannian chapter, we go for some sort of trial/practice thing with Cornelia and her senpai. You know, I am actually a bit surprised that she's a little intimidated by her senpai.
Rai: Uh... who is the lady we fought against?
The lady, aka Cornelia's senpai...
Is none other than Nonette Eneagram. XD big boobs She is a rather nice and upbeat lady, always telling Suzaku and me to do our best, and a total complete opposite of Cornelia.
Lloyd: Eneagram... don't tell me, from the Knights of Rounds...?
Nonette: I am the Knight of Nine, Nonette Eneagram. Nice to meet you.
She talks a lot, encourages us (Suzaku was kinda like :OOOOO THANK YOU MA'AM) and cracks jokes about us aiming for Knight of One or something.
And after that on one random day.
Suspicious person: I am not ORANGE! How many times must I tell you that?!
LOL ORANGE-KUN.
Anyway it's that battle where Cornelia's army joins in? I've forgotten if it's the landslide episode/battle too.
Rai: Mission Complete.
THIS ONE SCARED ME SO BAD because I was really running out of power. And out of power = DEATH = GAME OVER. But luckily it was "mission complete" right there. What great timing. Dx
Anyway I don't remember who Suzaku is talking to. But I think it's me, because I remember vaguely going, "This is so gay!" half the time.
Suzaku: I understand. Don't say anything anymore. I just want us (you? 8D) to come back alive.
I'm really sure he is talking to me in this one. 8'D
Battle "videos" look something like this. I'm probably piloting a Sutherland or something, since I haven't gotten my blue Lancelot. I forgot what it's called.
After the battle.
Cornelia: So you were fine.
She says something else which I don't remember.
Cornelia: Fu... it was a joke. I'm sorry.
Blushing Cornelia!
I don't know what I said, but most likely some sort of praises or something.
Euphemia: Thank you for saving my Elder Sister. :)
Why do all the Britannian royal family kids all probably take after their moms :o Assuming that the Emperor's hair was probably of the same shade as Nunnally's, it makes more sense that the kids all take after their moms.
Suzaku: Ah, Rai! I'm looking for a cat, will you help me out?
Rai: A small, black cat...? Does it look something like that cat near your foot?
Suzaku: Arthur! When did you...?
I thought, the cat's gonna bite him and yes it did.
Suzaku: Uuuuu! Arthur, why are you...? T_T;
Euphie shopping. (For groceries...?) Brain does not compute.
Euphemia: I met you at Narita, right? ...If I'm not wrong.... you are Rai-san.
I ask her what she's doing, which is kind of obvious orz
Euphemia: This is a shopping mall, isn't it? Of course I've come here to shop.
Euphemia: Well then, I will excuse myself here. Let's meet once again, Rai-san.
At school again.
Rai: If it isn't Suzaku. What are you doing?
Suzaku: Ah, Rai! I'm looking for a cat, so will you help me out?
Rai: Again, huh...
Even I was thinking the same thing =_=;
Suzaku: Yeah, again. >_<
Rai: So. What did you do to Arthur this time till he ran away?
Actually I don't remember. I think he was trying to do something. Was it cleaning or something? Anyway we find Arthur a short while later.
Suzaku: Saa, Arthur, let's go back to the Student Coucil room... UUU!
I'm curious as to which part of Suzaku's body Arthur is biting now.
Back to Lloyd and Cecile. Since I don't have an ID = I don't have an identity, they make one for me.
Lloyd: Here, this is your ID card. It's the real thing. Nfufufufu.
They have a present for me!
Rai ... I don't believe this. You're giving this to me?
After all that...
Cecile: Happy Birthday, Rai-kun!
They decide to make it my birthday because I was given an ID card. Hur hur hur. Actually they tell me to look at my card, and then, "It's your birthday today!" before the whole HAPPY BIRTHDAY thing.
Lloyd: Maa, something like this once in a while is good. Nfufufufu!
The nfufufus... You are not Mizuki Hajime, Lloyd. D:
Cecile: Saa, there's cake here too. I made it! And then... do you know of "onigiri"?
NO, NOT ONIGIRI, CECILE-SAN DDDD:
She proceeds to tell you that it's a type of food from Area 11 which people eat during/after work. Suzaku has been a victim of her onigiri already, so.
Suzaku: Aa... Rai, be careful of the onigiri...
Cecile: Oh dear, why?
But you, you put blueberry jam in those! T_T;; Jam with rice and seaweed urghhhhh.
Part 2 next time, probably on Sunday if I don't procrastinate. :D
EDIT
Part 2 Need to replay Neo Angelique game again, since I am determined to catch Rayne no matter what. I wonder if that online guide I used to cheat my way through for Haruka 3 has a NeoAnge page too...
Speaking of NeoAnge, the game disk (for the full voice version) comes with a trailer for Harukanaru Toki no Naka de 4. It's the one here:
Click to view
[
Link instead?] I was like WAO when I viewed the trailer on TV. Looks even better than Haruka 3. I guess that three-month delay was kind of worth it if I'm going to get pretty Persona 3-like graphics. (It was supposed to be released in March and I pre-ordered in January, imagine my PAIN when the release date got pushed to June.) I'm gonna go for Chi no Suzaku/Nagi, that bitchy-like boy/classmate you first see. *icon* Which is kind of strange, because I wasn't too fond of the Chi no Suzaku characters in the previous Haruka games. And actually the team in the trailer is kind of my ideal team, because I like Nagi, Kazahaya and Oshihito. Heh. That's why I like Neoromance games, at least they're not the visual story book kind, because those kinds get kind of boring after a while.
Because yesterday's a public holiday and I took today off, I keep thinking that today is Sunday, only to realize that I still have two more days ahead of me before Monday. Ah, how nice. ♥
