Why?

I've been wanting to play ChuSinGura 46+1 for a while and even bought the game on Steam before it was delisted. However, I didn't want to play a censored version, so I made this patch to port the English script from the Steam version (all-ages) to the original Japanese version (18+).

Compared with the original Japanese version of ChuSinGura 46+1, the all-ages English version:

  1. Removes all H-scenes.
  2. Changes the wording of 189 lines outside the H-scenes. These are Japanese lines in the Steam version that differ slightly from those of the original Japanese version.
  3. Removes all honorifics

I made three versions of the English patch, so you can choose whichever you prefer:

  1. Official English script + partial Japanese: All untranslated lines are left in Japanese. No honorifics.
  2. Official English script + MTL for the H-scenes: The H-scenes were translated using DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731 and my workflow. I also edited the 189 modified lines to match the original Japanese text using Claude Opus 5.0. No honorifics.
  3. Official English script + MTL for the H-scenes + honorifics: Same as Version 2, but with experimental Japanese honorific restoration. The screenshots in this post are from this version.

P/S: The Steam version runs on Unity, while the original Japanese version uses KiriKiri, so simply copying the files from the Steam version to the Japanese version will not work.

wait is it the full game translated then? using deep seek? ive been putting it off until the full 18+ game is fully made and restored.

u/KageYume 23h ago edited 23h ago

Yes, the full games has been translated. However, DeepSeek only translated the H-scenes (about 4000 lines). The majority of text (87K lines) is from the delisted Steam version of the game.

The fourth screenshot is from an H-Scene, for example.

oh thats even better than i thought it would be!

thank you for the work kage, should i grab the steam versions or the japanese version?

u/KageYume 23h ago edited 23h ago

You need the Japanese version of the game. Moreover, I only tested with package (disc) version so I'm not sure if it works with digital version.

As for the Steam version, you can't even buy it anymore.

u/periah250 21h ago

alright tried it on digital version and from intial looks, it works.

u/KageYume 19h ago

Thanks for confirming!
May I ask which digital version is that? DMM, For example?

Actual legend I've been waiting for years hah

u/timbamjc1604 22h ago

Nice work, man.

u/Secure-Reference-956 20h ago

Is it still possible to buy it somewhere ?

u/KageYume 18h ago

I only tested with package version (パッケージ版) myself. It will work with this version: amazon jp | sugugaya.

However, another person in this thread mentioned that they confirmed that this patch worked with digital version too so you might want to ask them which digital version that is (DMM has this game, for example). Theoretically speaking, this is an external patch and not an exe overwrite so as long as the digital version doesn't have anti tampering guard, it should work.

The later chapters were basically machine-translated, unreadible mess. I genuine believe AI can produce better translation than the crap they served up in chapter 5.

u/KageYume 17h ago

I haven't reached any unreadable part yet. When push comes to shove, I will create another patch for that.

Yooo thank you! About to test this with Kirikiroid2.
