Let's all get acquainted with each other! Tell everyone a little bit about yourself, how you plan to help the project grow, and anything else we may need to know. I'm Todash (/u/constantlytodash). I'm 22 and I live in California. I enjoy hanging out at the beach, reading, and watching anime. I watch almost exclusively shoujo anime and have probably watched over 50 different shoujo series. Therefore, I hereby dub myself as the Resident Shoujo Expert! Besides that, I'll be writing. I guess I'm lead writer because no one else has really joined the writing team yet. I'm not very qualified and have only ever really played one VN, but I like to think I'm a good writer. At the very least, I know I am a very good editor and rarely make writing mistakes. If you need to contact me, feel free to do so through reddit or this board

Hello everyone, igfod13 here, that guy that first committed to making this project. I'm the super critical type of anime watcher that will rant about 3deep5u. It's all about the themes... I refuse to let all of those essays in English go to waste. I do, however, have a soft spot for slice of life. I've also read a few VNs, and love all the Key works (Symphonic Rain is amazing as well). I guess I'll dub myself the pretentious asshole? As for the project, I'm somewhat a jack of all trades, master of none. I can do anything as needed, including draw, write, code, and maybe(this one's a big maybe) compose up to a decent quality, so I'll try to see this project to completion. However, due to a busy schedule and limits in my own abilities, I'll try to stay away from the areas people are more proficient in and just check in on quality. As for my own preferences, I'd probably like to work on sprite or CG art, and maybe write or co-author one of the routes, but again, this depends on you guys =P.

Hey everyone ;3
I'm Ayanami, the owner of this website. I am currently the person in charge of handling the creation of the websites I believe... Besides that I don't do much else. I want to help out as much as I can in the project, but I'm not sure what I else I can assist in.
Just some random things about me, my favorite series is Neon Genesis Evangelion. My favorite character is Rei Ayanami. I spend most of my days playing DayZ, Hearthstone, and just some random steam games. I watch anime on occasion, and I've also played a few VN's in the past. I am currently trying to get better at drawing on my wacom tablet, hopefully later on I can assist more in the sprite department ;3
If you ever have any questions feel free to ask me and I will do my best to help. I am usually on most of the day either on the computer or mobile.

Hello there;
I'm SDW although on reddit I go by OccasionallyWitty. In retrospect I'm not sure why I made those different...
Anyway, I'm a 23 year-old Canadian man and have been a semiprofessional writer for about 4 years now ever since my writing professor got me a job at the small local magazine that she co-owns. I'm a big fan of anime and although I'm not huge on shoujo anime I've watched things like Azumanga Daioh in its entirety as well as The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya and others. As far as VNs go I've played my way through Katawa Shoujo 100% and I'm working my way through a game right now called Grisaia no Kajitsu. Incidentally I also studied Japanese for a couple years back in university.
I figured I would volunteer my help with the writing "department" if you guys were interested. Let me know.

Hi, I'm Rudric, 25 year old visual novel enthusiast.
I've played KS, Clannad, Kanon, Yume Miru Kusuri, G-Senjou, Saya no Uta, Naricssu, Muv-Luv, and Fate/stay to name a few, and going through Higurashi atm. For anime, I like urobuchi stuff, cyberpunk, mecha and moe/slice of life. Catching up on Chu2koi finally right now.
As for skills, I've dabbled with ren'py before, and am working on a simple VN of my own. But I am not overly familiar with Python, aside from making a calculator. My drawing skills are sub-par and my musical creation ability is nil. I did take some graphic design courses in college, and I think I'm a decent writer.
In any case, you can never have too many editors/QA guys, right?
I mostly came here to help where I can and to watch the project, because I want this to happen!

Hey all, I'm flyaokon.
I like anime, manga, visual novels, and japanese (language and culture). As for tastes, I dont really have a specific genre I watch/read, but I tend to watch/read romance type anime/manga. I also enjoy producing electronic music and have been doing so for about two and a half years.
As for how I'd like to help out, I really enjoy writing and developing storyboards, so I was thinking I might do well as a scenario writer. Additionally, I thought I might be able to use my production experience to help in the creation of the game's OST.

Hi, I'm batsan.
I probably don't consume anime as much as some of you but I do enjoy it. I've only read two VNs so far (Clannad and Katawa Shoujo) but I intend to read more. I commented about two weeks ago in a thread suggested there be a tsundere sharks VN saying I'd be willing to help but I had no idea there'd been any organization since then. I just learned about this place today.
I'm in the same situation as rudric; I've messed about with ren'py before, and python. I'm no artist and I've not attempted writing for a long time but if anyone needs any help with anything I'd be more than happy to lend a hand.

Hi, Siperdy here,
I'm 17 years old and I like watching anime and producing/composing music. I've been making music for 3 years now and I'm mainly interested in japanese (anime?) music which I try to incorporate as much as I can.
I will probably just make and help out with the OST and maybe some minor things I can help with.

Hi I'm /u/RoflHarris and I kinda maybe moderate /r/sharkmoe.
I have found my people. I can help out writing or coding (IT guy by trade / degree) but mostly my passion is sketching the above horrifying abominations against nature.

Post by Hello World! on Jul 24, 2014 5:43:15 GMT
Hello, I'm /u/99942-Apophis. I'm from Australia, so timezones might hinder real-time communications with me. Like siperdy, I'm 17 years old. Gotta be studying for exams! Also like siperdy, I like japanese (touhou) music, but I've had no experience making music itself. Hopefully siperdy will be able to help me. Unlike most of you, I don't really do much. I haven't played any VNs. Nor have I watched any animes. Nor manga. I honestly don't know what I'm doing with my life. I probably won't understand half the japanese terminology you guys talk about, but sharks are cute. Anyway, I have a MacBook 6, 1 loaned to me by my school. It has a P7550 Penryn processor and a NVidia 9400m graphics co-processor. On this, I have Adobe {Illustrator, Photohop} and Logic Pro X. But because of the 9400m, I can't really do anything big with Photoshop Question: siperdy, what DAW do you use or what instrument(s) do you play?

Hey, I'm Velawesomeraptors. I can do art stuff (I don't have Photoshop, only Gimp and a tablet) but sometimes I'm bad about checking back with people. If you need me to do something, PM me on Reddit and I will probably get back to you a lot faster. I haven't played any of these dating game things and I'm not a huge fan of shoujo manga but I know some of the terminology. Also it looks like I'm the only girl here sooo... let me know if you want a female opinion on something I suppose.

Hi, I'm DEM58. I'm 16 so it looks like I'm a bit younger than everyone else, but anything I lack in years of experience I should be able to make up for with tons of free time. Although I haven't played a ton of Visual Novels, I've watched a lot of Anime (my favorite is Fate/Zero) and played a ton of JPRGs (my favorites are Fire Emblem:Awakening and Persona 4).
I've been programming for a couple years now and have a decent knowledge of Python/C++/Java.

Hello everybody, I'm GanymedeanOutlaw. I've been looking to get back into writing, as well as work on something that isn't science fiction for once.
I've never actually played (read?) a visual novel, but I think I understand the general idea. Though, if anyone can point me in the direction of a good free one, that'd be nice.

Waddap peeps, Keospear here, or you can just call me Keos as TodashSan does. Uhm.. I enjoy writing, and art as well, so I am going to try my best to contribute to this. I love pretty much all genres of anime and mangas, currently reading Mixed Vegetables (Todashchan i think you will like this one, check it out) and Tegami Bachi, while also watching "Barakamon" Love everything cute, from frilly skirts to tiny animals (currently have a beta fish and 3 cats at home) and even sweets, give me candy and I'll be your best friend.
I'm essentially a little kid.
Keos out

Hey GanymedeanOutlaw (gosh, that's a long name) I'd love to read some of your works if they're available Katawa Shoujo (literally crippled girls ) is a free VN that's getting a lot of praise on reddit. It was started by 4chan, so it'll give you an idea of what's going to happen with this project (hopefully).
