hi guys, I just finished watching the OVA of Dokkyusei, and I was duly impressed. Elf does write a good story, it’s a shame some people are missing out on the Bishoujo anime because they categorize it with porn, as in ‘all sex and no story.’ what is it about independent, strong, tomboyish characters that I like so much? I liked Satomi a lot, and I fell madly in love with Makoto from Tokimeki Check-In! as well. The effeminate Master of the coffee shop is a hoot. What i liked the most was the ending though, topping an excellent story with a realistic ending. Most anime would probably close it with a sappy ‘Kazuya got his girl Mai, and they became happily ever after’ but no, he has to face the consequences of his actions. The funniest thing is, when I was watching the anime, Kazuya would go to some place, and miss the girl completely, and I found myself thinking ‘you bonehead, you went to the wrong place at the wrong time, that’s why you missed an event.’ or ‘dude, you’re this totally sensititve guy, why are you playing both ends? Minus for style points, you’re going to end up with no one in the end.’

You mean Wataru, right? (Kazuya is your best friend, and Kurumi's boyfriend. Yeah, right!)
Oops, my apology, I meant Wataru
Aren’t he the lucky one or is it the other way around ?!?

I don't think so. Several companies have their online shop through Right Stuf. Pioneer for example. It's probably easier for them then setting up their own internal shop to deal with orders from their website.

In both the Doukyuusei2 series and the Sotsugyusei series, the Doukyuusei2 protagonist (Makoto in the Dou2 series and Ryunosuke in Sotsugyusei) ends with Yui-chan... And only in the Dou2 series do you have a wedding: a double-wedding of Makoto/Yui and Makoto's father/Misako...

As for Wataru , he ended up alone.
The only source I can see if from the game... but that's only if you're going after Misa-san! ...I think (never went after Misa-san) [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/tongue.gif[/img]
(EDT: and honestly, has he NOT end with Yui-chan in the Dou2 series, the series wouldn't have been fair at all, if you consider how much Yui-chan endured for him...
P.S. And no, Yui-chan is not my fav. Dou2 character [it's Sakurako-chan [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/smile.gif[/img] ], though I like her a lot)
