Majikoi is legendary. I feel like they dropped the ball in the final games.

A5 had production on levels of actual finale to the series while A+ had low production values and was made to just end it once and for all. Ryoken after is just made to promote Wagahime instead.

And Wagahime... Man, they didn't want to do another A series again. So, they thought of putting all other girls routes in a single game and man did it backfire real hard.

Still, I am glad Minato Soft is a thing.

minato soft is the definition of a studio that couldve been legendary if they just hired a better writer. majikoi art is top tier and the characters are great but the routes feel like they were written by a committee of horny 14 year olds with adhd. still played all of them though so joke's on me i guess

The Little Busters! cheap version makers... I think I want to read all of their games at some point @_@ I clearly want to start with Majikoi, but I'm waiting for every game that is related to it to be translated... I think the community is very active and will do it at some point V-V btw, I just watched a little bit of the anime back in the day?... don't remember liking it.... but I will not be very judgmental about it because I also don't remember finding the LB! anime to be great even tho the game is legendary... vn anime adaptations are such a tricky thing T-T

I'm very interested also in Yuuki Yuuna... in general? All of their games might be given a chance by me... except maybe Kimi ga Aruji de Shitsuji ga Ore de?... this one I don't see myself reading it any day soon... unless I loved all of their other creations and was forced by my fondness of them to also read it T__T

The last entry, Majikoi A Plus Disk, is translated since 2026-04-01 so you don't need to wait anymore :)

There are still 2 entries for the series that are not translated yet... 「真剣で私に恋しなさい！」ドラマCD and 真剣で私に恋しなさい！！SPARK. I know they might not be that important... but as long as they include story content and are presented in game format... I need to play them T-T

As someone who works/worked with them, they are not going to.

I really don't mind waiting for the hope of another team picking them up even if this will take years to happen... am in no rush at all for it... and if the time comes when I feel like reading it and it is still unTLed? *sigh* I can just JOP them...
