It's quite bizarre seeing someone wearing a Hanbok standing in front of a Torii. While it is totally possible to get 33 girls I found in a single playthrough, I just didn't try it since I was pretty much sick of playing it.
i really like the UI design, it's very fresh and cute. perhaps the protagonist is living in a simulation world that doesn't have the resources to emulate 40 unique girls... if he wasn't so focused on his studies, he would realize he is living a lie!
I too had one of those thickass schedulers like the game's UI back in the 90's ! When he ends up with no one in the end of the game, the protagonist says there will be opportunities in university. Bet it's is probably chock full of clones as well.
Everytime you mentioned the brain-damaged girls, a image of Cecilia from Rose Knight in her "stupid" state popped in my mind! 😭😭 I would like to see what would happen if a person really made a dating sim with so many characters with fleshed out personality and unique character designs. It would probably be revolutionary!
That Stupid Face was so amazing it's insulting in a way. Given today's technology/resources it's plenty possible for a developer to make a single player Dating Sim with tons of romantic interests, but I feel Mobile Gacha games are filling that role at this moment.
I know that there's a text-based Touhou dating sim (eratoho, there are multiple iterations of it, all nsfw and pretty sex-focused, though). It technically has every Touhou character, though not all of them have proper dialogue written out (it's either missing or replaced with generic dialogue depending on the version). But still.
It's nice to have more information about obscure titles like this, even though JSM itself really is a drag to play. At least the Korean localization seems to give it a bit more personality. Nice fighting game mentions, by the way! Fighters Megamix and Toshinden 3 are both great fun, the latter though more in the corny kusoge way...
The one and only reason I liked Toshinden back in the days were because of the character designs. I first thought Toshinden 3 was really cool to have a bunch of Kotobuki characters, but all the reviews were dunking on the game lol
oh wow, i actually remember checking out this game like a month ago out of curiosity since i wanted to find more pc-98 dating sims like photo genic, but forgot about it soon after. nice to finally get some closure on what this game was about, doesnt seem like i missed much lol
Yeah, you're better off not playing it. I guess both JSM and Photo Genic shares the fact that they were both localized in South Korea, and about an adult protagonist chasing around schoolgirls.
Despite the fact that it was obvious that the game was going to be mediocre as soon as they announced that exaggerated number of routes; I'm impressed that the character design is pretty good Of course, they are all a clone with the same face, or some have bigger heads; but it really impresses me that at least they are girls that you can differentiate in game, not like in booking man... I think it would have been a very nice dating sim if they had only focused on 6 girls (each with the game's default personalities), I feel like that way they would have paid more attention to the inconsistencies each one presented (or probably not xd).
Agreed, sameface bishoujos with different wigs aren't anything new. KSS' games at least on the visual spectrum, were very well done. I tried hard to not bring up Booking Man since I did not want to use any footage of that cursed game lol Even without the inconsistencies, they still would have the exact same hobbies and familial relationships. It's unintentionally disturbing in a way. Come to think of it, it could have been a great horror genre.
YAY NEW VIDEO! what unsavory endings, all a copy/paste for each type sounds like a fraud, and more so for how slow and boring the gameplay is. I'm thinking what would have been the reception of this game if it was an inverse harem or BL? Just thinking about the juggling they would have to do to create 40 different-looking guys makes it all the more hilarious since at that time there wasn't a lot of type of guys(?) I kinda doubt that they would have been able to make them all handsome or interesting, I bet some hairstyles would be the same but with a different color, oh and the male uniforms mmm, another design challenge. The rich boy type, the class rep type (one word: glasses), the cutely or feminine type, the damaged ones, the athletes...I bet it would be super easy to spot each one hahaha. Thank you for the video, watching these kinds of videos with my sister it's so much fun!
Thanks for finding my videos entertaining! You and your sister are awesome. I think having 40 boys could have made the game more of a clonefest. Especially at a time when the only Otome game that existed was Angelique. I imagine the boys wearing gakurans of varying colours lol KSS' other game Mujintou Monogatari R had romanceable male characters(yes, same sex endings!) but they were university students and did not have the best designs.
40 romanceable characters??? So excessive.... it figures there's only actually 6 true personalities in total, and weak ones at that. It's actually really creepy that so many of them don't match their introduction cutscenes... are they being body snatched and having their brains overwritten for the protagonist's convenience?? I'll give this game one thing, normalize carrying around business cards no matter your age or occupation... serious business types have kept this activity to themselves for too long. No more clammy handshakes and awkwardly promising to follow each other on social media and then instantly forgetting, welcome to card exchange paradise.
As a forever owner of sweaty palms, I too wish business cards be utilized more often. The business card business(lol) must be booming in the world of JSM. Imagine having to switch cards for every year in school. Perhaps the protagonist is compartmentalizing all the girls he meets since he is left with limited brain space to spare since he has to focus the rest on his university exam studies. Which makes him sound more robotic than the girls. Either way, really boring characters to date in a game.
최대한 효율적으로 플레이하려 했는데 완전 지루해서 엄청 괴로웠습니다. 특히 캐릭터들 추가적으로 찾으려고 같은 장소를 1년 내내 번복해야 했을때는 정말ㅋㅋㅋ 생긴게 괜찮아도 결과적으로 클론이니 당최 그렇게 붙잡고 싶은 마음이 들지 않더라고요. 행동거지도 똑같고, 전용 이벤트도 없고, 데이트도 별 것 없고..

I like that they made them into god-fearing koreans. All jokes aside it would be fun to see how long those phone calls last if you got all 40 girls.

@@kotyara85 In the same spirit, the Custom Slave series potentially has an unlimited amount of girls to..uh.. "train".
4:17 I spat out my drink when I saw Parappa, I wasn't expecting that lmaoooo
You gotta believe!
40명의 히로인...이라는 시점에서 대충 어떤 물건일지 예상이 된 건(그리고 예상 대로였던건), 그 동안 올리신 동영상을 보며 저도 많이 배운(?) 덕분인거 같네요;;;
어떤 반전이 있는 편이 더 재밌었겠지만 현실은 다반사가 안 봐도 비디오(이런 옛날식 표현법을..)인지라.. 저도 그런 미연시 한번 찾고 싶네요ㅎㅎ

I randomly click on your channel and boom there's a new video. Really pleasant surprise!
The concept sounds interesting if some one could remake it.
I guess mobile gacha games play a similar role in this day and age? Find the romantic interests with rolls!

연애게임할때 가장 재미없는 부류의 겜이네요...
캐릭터한테 정붙일방법이 없으니 노가다도 괴로울것같고
이런류게임은 역시 자기가 좋아할만한 캐릭 붙드는재미로하는건데 질소포장처럼 캐릭수만 늘려놔서 아쉬운게임인거같아요
최대한 효율적으로 플레이하려 했는데 완전 지루해서 엄청 괴로웠습니다. 특히 캐릭터들 추가적으로 찾으려고 같은 장소를 1년 내내 번복해야 했을때는 정말ㅋㅋㅋ
생긴게 괜찮아도 결과적으로 클론이니 당최 그렇게 붙잡고 싶은 마음이 들지 않더라고요. 행동거지도 똑같고, 전용 이벤트도 없고, 데이트도 별 것 없고..
