I'm a faggot for putting off playing this.

The script is gold, the gameplay's quirky but addictive, and the sparse CG is pretty hot. First game I've ever gotten EXCITED over an HCG (just with breasts, if you know what I mean).

The reason I put it off is because I watched the whole Underwater anime back in '06 and didn't think it was worth it. Fortunately I've forgotten some of the more interesting parts (Completely forgot the whole "Rakshain" thing, etc.), and the anime doesn't flesh out certain things the way the game does.

Game is missing an Eruruu/Karura HCG, though.

There's a lot of fanservice in the script, I assume OP meant that.

Pretty sure he meant a Karura + Eruruu CG.

Get it?

If you mean the story's quirky and entertaining, sure. If you honestly think it's an epic-scale presentation, you're an idiot.

>>1165229
He said Eruruu/Karura, as in Karura molesting Eruru.

And besides, Karura's H-scene was one of the most rushed and unexpected of them all.

Yes, I know what he's saying... but the script isn't gold at all.

The whole Rakshain thing was the high point of the game. Nothing after could motivate me as much as the village being burned down and everybody dying.

The anime is much beter than the game.

Hard to believe, but it's true.

is it better than the anime? anime was good decent but I just couldn't get into it.

The game never quite got the feeling of immense war.
Probably because the battles only had a few people in them each.

[Anonymous No.]

>>1165309
In that sense, yes.

I found both anime and game entertaining. The anime unexpectedly turned into a war story with visible strategy, and the game had a lot of entertaining scenes. The game's combat and level up systems weren't too bad, though nothing remarkable. I probably won't ever go back and finish all the hard modes, but there's the chance.

Is this one of the games you have to have Japanese language support on your computer for?

[Anonymous No.]

I'd play the PS2 version if given the chance.

>>1165287
Maybe it´s because i played the game first, but i downloaded the 9GB torrent for the bluray version of the anime (after the english patch came out if my memory serves me right) and i haven´t finished it, and when i had the game i played it every day for 2 weeks until i finished it

It really stumps me why anybody would recommend this 'game'. It's a mediocre VN with a shitty story combined with really bad turn based strategy. As far as I know, putting two bad things together doesn't make them good.

[Anonymous No.]

Uta is not for everyone. I'm not saying that you either love it or hate it because that's a silly cliched line. If you take the game apart it's not exceptional in any way, and for this reason it's just another average VN for some people.
However, it really shines if you can emotionally attach yourself to the characters, most importantly to Eruruu. It's one of my favorite VNs/animes because it can stir up some pretty powerful emotions if you can immense yourself in its world.

Welcome to the world of animu, where the majority of fans only get involved if there's a particularly unique character, who has a particularly unique and super flashy fighting skill and who whores themselves out for 9/10ths of it's duration, but acts totally innocent when not.

I went through Utawarerumono, honestly don't see why so many people dislike it. I thought it was great. Especially the SRPG battles. They're not complex, but then again neither was mario bros, and that was pretty fun.

Maybe I just haven't ben through the "better" ones so I'm not spoiled yet, but fuck, you people sound like those goddamn audiophiles who complain about "horrible" sound from, oh dear heavens, that dinosoar of an "mp3" format. Lord knows I should CLEARLY only enjoy fifty gbs lossless music tracks or else it's complete shit unworthy of being fed to dogs.

[Anonymous No.]

Uta was pretty good. That all, said my peice.

[Anonymous No.]

I liked how the missions were hardly ever:
Victory:
Defeat all enemies
Defeat:
Leader is killed

There was always some goal to reach, some fort to destroy, some target to kill, some time to survive or some bitch to rescue.

personally I found the anime more enjoyable than the game... yeah it didn't explain things as much, but I was simultaneously reading explanations from people who knew Japanese and had already played the game (particularly for better explanation of all the stuff near the end).

As was already said, it gave more of a feeling of actual wars being fought, also the whole part with Niwe actually was more substantial in the anime. And one of the biggest things for me was that the humorous scenes were just funnier when animated instead of only being text + a few selections of character portraits.

My main problem with the anime was that by eliminating all the H-scenes *and* anything related to them, Yuzuha became a completely pointless character in the anime. She really didn't have any story at all, she was just there to develop Oboro's character and then disappeared after Aruruu got Gachatara

[Anonymous No.]

I also didn't like how the real Hakuoro had no real importance.

[Anonymous No.]

>>1165852
My main problem with the anime is that they made anyone who wasn't Genjimaru or Hakuoro completely worthless the second Avu Kamu were introduced.

[Anonymous No.]

>>1165852
To be honest, I found Yuzuha pretty pointless in the game too. She didn't have a clue about what was going around her, as Hakuoro said, she was more like a pet to Oboro than someone with free will. She was passive during the whole game besides that extremely awkward h-scene because she wanted babies, even though she should have known that Hakuoro already loves Eruruu
