First time I heard about White Album 2 is from the anime adaptation. It is fun romance anime, but here's the problem. The anime adaptation itself only adapt the opening chapter of visual novel, which is the prologue of the main story. There's a fan translation but you need to buy the game in Japanese storefront which there's 2 currency exchange for me. I just want to continue the story and need to know how the story end
This is one of the best drama/love triangle games (pieces of media even) I ever saw, even if it does have a bit of soap opera feel at times. It deals with adolescents making less then stellar decisions, belonging, estrangement and feelings of guilt.
I played this game alone with the fan patch. One challenge is that it has a huge playtime. The other one is that H-scenes -which I personally did not really care for- are unskippable the first time. The absolute star of this VN (whether you like or hate her) is Setsuna, whose character is explored in all routes, developing her further and making her seem almost real.
It has a fantastic soundtrack, I suspect this is one of the reasons why it's difficult to re-lease / remaster it, because of rights issues.
It's fantastic and tugs at your heartstrings.
It would be a travesty if this story would be lost to the ages.
Do you know what I did after watching the White Album 2 anime? I WATCHED IT AGAIN! That's how much I loved it. It immediately became my #1 anime of all time. The bad news was that the anime only adapted the first chapter of the story. The good news is that this was back in autumn of 2022 or so. After searching the internet hoping for a VN fan translation lo and behold some madlads who had been slaving away at it for the past 10 years were getting ready to release the translation for Christmas that year. It was the best Christmas present I have ever received.
Simply put this is my favorite VN of all time, one of my favorite stories of all time, and definitely my favorite romance out of all of them! I cried like a beach during multiple moments of the story and when I finally completed the last route, heard Setsuna playing Powder Snow for the final time and saying "Wie geht es Ihnen? Ich singe immer noch" I got up from my PC and broke down in manly tears. Absolute MASTERPIECE OF STORYTELLING!!!!
This hasn't been licensed yet by any western publisher but if by any chance this does get an official release in the west then I hope GOG gets to pick it up because more people need to read White Album 2. In the meantime grab a copy from wherever you can, apply the fan translation, and enjoy one of the most heart wrenching romance stories of all time. You will NOT be disappointed!

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Trending Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox
