~In the rain~

The story follows Chris, a third-year Fortelle student at Piova Communal School of Music, located in a city that never stops raining. His hobbies include staring blankly at rain, talking to an imaginary fairy that only he can see, and writing letters to his sweetheart, Arietta, who lives in a distant town. It is via one of Arietta's letter that we are first introduced to Chris' plight: With the finals fast approaching, Chris must find a vocalist to partner up with for his final graded performance.
There are four different prospective partners (who are all girls, naturally) throughout the story whom he can choose as his vocalist partner. For the easily emotional, get a tissue ready.
-Tv Tropes Description of the game.

This game is just amazing. The music minigames tend to be a tiny bit of a pain as each girl only has one song, and you have to practice it alot. Luckily for the musically ungifted there is an option to auto-play the songs allowing you to get on with the game.

As mentioned there are 4 girls to choose from. But one of them, the true route, will only be unlocked after all the other girls hhave been cleared. By the second route it will become fairly obvious who they are.

Personally I went after Lise, short white-blond hair, first and it was soulcrushingly depressing, so much that when I did Fal's route, long white-blonde hair, I was completely dispondent. I'm nearly done with her route and saving Torta's, long brown hair in a ponytail, route for last. I'll update with how Fal, Torta, and the true route's turn out once I've completed them.

TL Wiki was so gracious as to give us the english patch as well!

Does anyone have a link?

>>3 Depends on whether you're looking for a torrent or looking to buy Xem. I don't really like torrenting due to the large load of viruses you tend to get.

Ok, I want in on this. So some one please help me!!!
Can I BUY the game with english translations? <- PREFERRED
Or can someone give me a link to download it with english translation? And tell me how to set it up? (I seem to always fuck-up the setups when downloading games)

You can purchase it in japanese and then install the english translation patch, it's actually pretty easy along with being what I did.

These guys right here, they're pretty good at translating games and it's a rather reliable patch. But save often since the font tends to dissapear at times.
