Consider this a... prequel, if you will. Hagokoro's gameplay is certainly based off of this one, but I'd say they're both pretty good. Excessm had a rough time with Hagokoro's launch though, considering it was made with a completely different engine than they were used to, so take that information as you will.

Parade Buster is more simple, but has more content.
Hagokoro is more ambitious with a whole new engine and is therefore more meager on content, some of the animations are wonky, but it feels like the start to something better to follow up.


So I guess contentwise it's best to start with Hagokoro, since you'll finish that game in a about 2 hours, while ParadeBuster has easily double the content, especially if you include the post-mainquest stuff.

people keep saying that but as far as I can tell Hagokoro has plenty of content, Parade Buster has a larger number of girls true but unlike Hagokoro the girls in Parade Buster don't all have there own events and fewer animations.
Also Hagokoro requires less grinding then Parade Buster and the overall pacing itself is faster too making seem much shorter.

though Hagokoro could use a proper translation.

edit
I also forgot to say that Hagokoro also has a custom scene maker(where you can make you own custom scenes duh) like the Yandere short stack pinkskinned otome scene a friend of mine made

I'm pretty sure I've beaten the game and still haven't found the "bodies" from the main menu. Are they actual enemies or just art? I can't see them anywhere..

which version is the one u have to tell the casino that they're cheating
Probably something you should ask in the smashboy thread...
It's when the girls with tanned skin are there instead of the ones normally there, just play a game then keep accusing them of cheating until you have no other choice and that should unlock it in the gallery. Takes like a third of your SP though.

For anyone who went through Lester difficulty... how are you meant to defeat bosses accompanied by those priests with healing spells? A single spell that accidentally goes off pretty much undoes several minutes of fight...
