So it makes me wonder if Lulucoco village will have sun and rain year round without snow since it is a 'tropical' village.

I hope there will be someway to teleport between villages or a better way than the horse (I don't really like using the horse outside of my farm, too easy to lose track of it)

I hope they keep snow out of Lulucoco; it'll be more realistic that way. Or at least at a lesser frequency compared to Wes and Tsuyukusa

Haha ikr. Good thing the horse in SOS is always back in the barn overnight

I think most people here already check this blog (or feed or whatever it's called) but just in case there are a few who don't, there was a little bit of important news about the fan-art contribution, specifically for people outside of Japan, so for anyone who is interested in contributing and hasn't checked: http://friendsof3villages.tumblr.com/po ... rt-contest

It does make sense for a tropical village not to have any winter at all. I do wonder just how they're going to implement this whole 'three villages' thing. That's the thing I want to know most of all...the overall story of the world the game is to be set in, this time.

There was a new comic in the previous scan, where the MC met Kasumi. Did someone translate it ?

MC: Uncle Frank sent me on an errand but Tsuyukusa is totally different from Westown.

Kasumi: What do you think you're doing? So rude!

MC: Sorry! I wasn't looking...

MC: It's raining.

MC: Even though it was sunny in Westown...

That's why Uncle told me to bring the kappa (raincoat that looks like kappa)!

MC: I have two, so you put one on, too! A rain kappa!

Kasumi: No, that's okay.

^ I wonder if that means there will be a raincoat shaped like kappa in the actual game.

Could be! It's a play on words. "Amagappa" (雨合羽) or "kappa" (合羽) means "raincoat," but the MC says it as 雨ガッパ which is "rain kappa." It's a cute joke to have a raincoat in a kappa shape, kind of like having a computer mouse shaped like an actual mouse.

Thank you very much ^v^

I think there was a comic with a joke about the kappa/raincoat for the previous SoS too

I want a rain Kappa—no, I need a rain Kappa!

But yeah, the beginning of the month is upon us, that means more news is coming this week if they—and I assume they will—follow the same news pattern.

I get the feeling they'll go back to Lulucoco for a bachelor/ette if the returning characters live in Wes Town, but I'm prepared for either or.

All we're missing is another bachelor from Lulukoko and another bachelorette and bachelor from Wes Town. With the game coming out in a month and a half or so I wouldn't be surprised if Marvelous just announced all three in the next issue. There must be a reason why they decided to release three candidates from Lulukoko in one issue aside from the obvious one with the bachelorettes from Lulukoko being twins.

The game is only about 2 months from release. Hopefully in a few days we get the last of the marriageable candidates. Does anyone know when the news releases happen? It should be around Friday or so, correct?

I'm not exactly sure when, but it's usually the first week of the month...

We still don't have a doctor....perhaps this month? Oh please let the doctor be marriageable....At least a nurse/apprentice who's marriageable please.

Famitsu releases on Thursdays in Japan (Wednesdays here because of the time zone differences) but next week is Golden Week so not sure if it's going to come earlier than normal, later than normal, regular time, or what.
