I don’t see why they wouldn’t translate that promo video 
It’s a nice extra to include, either bundled with the game… or maybe as a release celebratory video 8)
It probably isn’t a good idea to use it to market/promote the game, as it does not represent the game… But, it would be foolish thunderbolt to ignore a nice little animation like that!
They generally don’t even translate the openings, but the promo vid looks really cute. Maybe they would for a convention of a later date? I never attended one of their panels before, so I don’t know the usual flow of it. I just know that I’d think the game was charming enough to check out if I saw it at a con.
Is Yumina the Ethereal a kind of game that would be worth upgrading one’s PC? I am leaving the fate of my bishoujo game machine on your review, Nargrakhan.
with most games you should keep your system the same or even downgrade your operating system(most don’t work on win7 64)
this should run on most systems but until jast releases the game stats i can’t tell
If you can’t even play bishoujo games, I’m sorry friend, but it’s time to upgrade. Not just to play bishoujo games, but because your computer is a fossil.
I wouldn’t be so quick to say that. So far, every single JAST/PP/GC game I’ve installed works on my Win7 64 machine. Sure, you might have to right click the shortcut to the game and tell it to run in compatibility mode, but that doesn’t mean that the game doesn’t work. In fact, the only game in which I’ve had to enable compatibility mode up to this point is Hitomi. You can read more about running specific games in this thread.
Look at the first post for the box and system requirements. The game has unusually high system requirements for a bishoujo game, at least compared to most, if not all, of the others released in English. I wouldn’t upgrade for one single game unless I knew it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. As I am not sold yet, I do doubt this single game is worth the hassle. I’ll still wait for Nargrakhan’s review, but no. It certainly isn’t the time to upgrade unless I suddenly had an urge to play a lot of high spec games and not a single low spec (128mb recommended VRAM) bishoujo game.
If the video card is the only problem, just go purchase a cheap modern video card. You could probably get one as cheap as $40.
i just hope that the company doesn’t decide to move their offices around the final release stages like nitro+ did
what is your guess on final release date my guess is by the end of this year at least i hope so but there are 2 other games that seem more done than this
My guess is about the time Dragon Age 3 comes out.

Estimated Release order by JAST:
Yukkuri > President > Yumina > Blaze > SDHQ
In the Yukkuri thread people started receiving emails stating they were being charged for the game, so that’s about to come out.

TL for Yumina is complete, all that remained early in June is graphics and I’m assuming testing.

Aselia wasn’t mentioned in the above list, but its a July or August release.

All that remained in May was the installer, Package and Manual.
With a lot of them near finished, I’m thinking:
Yukkuri - Next week sometime
President - July/August
Aselia - August/September
Yumina - September/October
Blaze - November/December
SDHQ - 2012
i hope they hit those dates yukkuri i could careless about
same with aselia since jasted decided to not do the full h version
now the others i care about most i care about yumina
Oo
In fact, the full version in the All-Age version…
Am I the only one reminded of Baka to Test when reading the plot summary? Is the game anything like it?
but less the train-wreck season 2 is
Done preordering yumina xD
At long last… the Glory shall be upon us! :o
I’ll preorder as soonas I read the words “Golden Master”.
Just curious, but has anyone here played the fandisc for this game? Is that any good?
status report from peter Yumina is coming along nicely, hope to release by the end of thebyear, maybe. http://twitter.com/#!/jlist
