So you have a lot of the typical yaoi VN tropes, you have corporate suits, you have a deal with the devil, and the game that pretty much invented the kichiku megane trope? Bring it, is all I can say. In addition to this, there’s a time limit looming over Katsuya’s head: if he doesn’t accomplish greatness in three months, he’s got to give the glasses back to the mysterious man and if the priority project his team has taken on in a somewhat unorthodox manner doesn’t meet their sales target, professionally, he’s going to be in deep shit, too.Īnd then there are the cast of characters: Aki, a cute lil bishie Honda, Katsuya’s longtime buddy and colleague Taichi, a uni student barista Katagiri, his sweet, mild-mannered manager and my personal favourite, Mido, the uptight division head of the company whose product Katsuya’s selling. Especially since his division is lowest on the pecking order in his company: they’re the shitkickers who are looked down on by everyone else and who get all the crappy projects everyone else in the firm has stuffed up. Turns out the glasses transform him into this magnetic personality who can convince people to do pretty much anything, and in his job doing door-to-door corporate sales, Katsuya’s probably going to find them extremely useful. While he’s doing that, a strange dude approaches him, giving him a pair of glasses and a whole lot of flattery, and tells him that he’s being gifted to make his life better and discover his true potential for greatness. Kichiku Megane, for the unintiated, is about this meek and mild-mannered salaryman who, after feeling pretty terrible after a workplace embarrassment, goes off drinking to drown his sorrows. At the moment, VNR isn’t acting too kindly to translating stuff for me, so I’m choosing to run with the translations from the team I was working with bear in mind, they don’t go very far, so this might look like an abandoned project for a while we’ll see if translations come up anywhere and/or how well I can stumble through the game on my lonesome without them! Add the whole hot corporate dudes in suits and the whole, well, kichiku megane kink, and I am so there that it’s not funny. The whole concept behind Kichiku Megane is kind of distinct and weird, and I adore games set in modern day ordinary settings, especially when the characters are adults. And because I doubt we’re going to see an officially licensed translation available, ever: not with a game this old, anyway, which really sucks. Why?īecause basically this was one of the very first visual novels I’ve heard about, and it sounds like mad awesome fun, and basically everything about it is relevant to my interests.
#Kichiku megane game english patch Patch#
I assisted in this capacity for KM, and then Omerta Chinmoku no Okite, but in the former case, we didn’t quite get there with completing it, and the game was never patched.Ĭut to a couple of years later and I’ve been trying to learn what I need to do in order to patch the game, assuming I’m able to find someone to translate it. There are an enormous number of save slots available, so take advantage of them in case you race through an important scene or want to try a different option without starting completely over.Okay, this is one of those games that I kind of desperately want to see get translated, to the point where I started assisting with translation issues, at least in an “editing the English” sense. You simply click on choices you want, and read what happens. At the moment, VNR isn’t acting too kindly to. Kichiku Megane is relatively easy to play through. The whole concept behind Kichiku Megane is kind of distinct and weird, and I adore games set in modern day ordinary settings, especially when the characters are adults. If you are not comfortable with rape as a theme, this will not be a game you want to play. Rape scenes are part of all endings, even the “good” ones, and they get darker from there. In order to succeed in the game, you will essentially rape your way to the top. Yaoi in general is not suitable for children, but there are other themes in this that may make adults uncomfortable. May not be appropriate for all (adult) audiences These characters all end up as victims of the main character at some point during the game. Other characters include the loud mouthed and not very bright best friend, Honda Kenji, the spineless Minoru Katagiri, and arrogant Midou Takanori. There is nothing he won’t do in order to get himself and his sales to the top, and rape is a prime feature in getting there. When he wears them, he is suddenly transformed into a cunning businessman with the willpower and desire to rape his way to the top. He receives a pair of “Devils glasses” with the ability to spice things up. Of course, something happens to change all that.
