   A Guide on How to Play Sono Hanabira ni Kuchizuke o Series Games
[Posted @ 8:30 PM]
For those who are new to the Hanabira series or still don't know how to extract the game from WinRAR. Now is the time to catch up on the previous 6 games =D.



Hope the guide helps, if you have any more problems, post your comments on this post and I'll try to help you as soon as possible =D.

Problem 1: I understand that many has data/system error warnings whenever one clicks on the hanaX.exe to start the game, AND/OR
Problem 2: Boxes/Weird wordings for lines during gaming.

As most systems' default language is English, my solution is to change the system's language so that the program - hanaX.exe can be displayed in Japanese.

Step 1 - Extract the files/folder from WinRAR;


Step 2 - Go to Control Panel, Regional & Language Options;


Step 3 - In Regional & Language Options, Advanced Tab;


Step 4 - After Restarting, Click on Hana7.exe;


Step 5 - Click START to Play the Game;


Step 6 - Hanabira Game, Load/Save Screen;


Step 7 - Hanabira Game, Extra/CG Screen;


Step 8 - Hanabira Game, System Screen;


Step 9 - Hanabira Game, Game Screen;


If you're playing the Mandarin/Chinese version, the solution is the same, change the language settings.

HOWEVER, there IS an easier/faster way that requires no restarts, I've tried it and it does work on Hana7.exe [Not sure about the others]. AppLocale by Microsoft which is a launcher application that makes it possible to run non-Unicode (code page-based) applications in a locale of the user's choice. It works for Windows XP but not really supported for Windows Vista [You can try installing though].

You can also play the Mandarin/Chinese and Japanese game at the same time lol without restarting to change the language settings.



Enjoy the game. A happy belated Christmas and a happy new year to all =D

[Oh, I've also missed Shizuru-sama's 19/12 birthday =A=, happy belated birthday to her as well!]

Oh yes, almost forgot, その花びらにくちづけを　あなたと恋人つなぎ [Sono Hanabira ni Kuchizuke o - Anata to Koibito Tsunagi] Animation coming soon!? Source from Ichijinsha.


A slightly bigger version;



Not sure if it'll be an animation series [13-24 episodes!?] or just a 1-3 episodes OVA, nevertheless, ozmg it's an animation! =D I look forward to it! I'm sure it'll be a R-18/21 rated one xD.

Anyways, random rants of the night;
I've just bought Yurihime Wildrose #4 [;_; please arrive soon] and ozmg, #5 will be out on 18th February 2010!? Along with Octave #4 and a new series by Morishima Akiko お江戸とてシャン. Doesn't seem to be fully-yuri related though.
