FIRSTLY, I love the game, it's fun and the guys are really cute. The style and story is special and it gave me a fresh feeling when I played it (not just talk to guys, love stories...bla bla) I love the art, too. ♥
AND the Question: [SPOILER ALERT***]
Um, I'm going for Aki, and...our relationship was going well (full hearts) but then an event occurred and he said that the things he said were just for the job or sth, and after that, I went to host holic again...Aki told me he used to be...a girl and did a surgery but didn't have enough money (?!) Is that true? So...I'll be dating a girl now?(Our hearts went back to one and I had to start filling them again) I'm kinda very confused here so can you answer PLEASE? :(( (Well Aki's so cool, handsome and all...but..a girl? Hell No...) Image

So I just finished a playthrough of this game with Rui, and it was a nice game, but I was wondering if there was some way you could unlock a the full dress-up game, with all the items, cause I don't think it's possible to get nearly all the items in one playthrough. I would be really interested in a way to unlock that.

Also, since you were asking for feedback on what the players wanted...I really have to interest in the shota option, but it wouldn't prevent me from playing the game. I am very interested in the BL edition, though!

There isn't a way to get all of the dress up items in one playthrough, but you can get most of them if you don't pay the money to test the school grounds for chemicals and avoid going to the host club. I'll try to come up with a cheat or something in the upgrade so people can get all of them.

Thanks for your shota and BL feedback!

LOL! Thanks for your question.
Aki was a girl, but had a sex change to become a man. So, he his a man now, so you always were and always will be dating a man. He had the surgery before he came to the host club, but he didn't pay for all of it, and is trying to work off the debt by working at the host club.
I hope that helps to answer your questions!

Ah, one more question, how many endings are there in total? Like 2 ends for each guy (one bad one good) or are there any more ends? Oh and about Aki, I don't know if this is a good end but it seems like he only needs my money (he did ask if I wanted to stay though)...And I didn't even get to choose to go or stay, it just happen like that and ends...?
Still, Love your games! :)

Thanks for your kind words. A few people have requested a walkthrough, but we don't really have time for it right now, however, if you have any specific questions, we can easily answer them.

Each guy has a good and a bad ending. There are also two endings for visiting the school on the last day instead of the hosts. It just depends on whether you solve the mystery or not.

If Aki asks you to stay, that is his way of telling you that he likes you.

No problem.

I'm not sure if we'll do more strictly otome games. We plan on making BL and Yuri versions of Host Holic and maybe ports. Right now, we're working on a language free farming game where all pairings are available (bxb, gxb, etc.), so it will be a little different.

I already started writing the male perspective for the BL version. I have no idea when it will be finished because I'm not sure how much we will end up changing.

If you sign up for our mailing list, you will get updates about the game when it's ready.

Thanks, I really hope you are able to include something like that in the upgrade. Will we be able to get the upgrades if we bought the game from mangagamer?

Also, another thing I thought of...do the stats like Intelligence, Teaching, Japanese, etc, have any effect on the game, or are they just for fun?
