  What is this game? The full name is roughly translated as Popular Life of Capable Man Day/Night Lecture. It’s two humorous Choose Your Own Adventure dating sim developed by Takara Tomy and both games was released on Valentine Day in 2008, which this LP will cover both starting from the Day version since the Night version is clearly a sequel with more difficulty. However, this is not a typical 'dating-sim’ as it’s in fact a ‘Tutor Software’ to educate males on how to behave and impress a girl with insightful depiction and knowledgeable tips to getting a date.  Aside from a theatrical simulation CYOA stories, the game includes other features such as Admirable Brain Training, mini-games, coolness knowledge database, famous figures’ maxim, and love skill testing simulator supervises by Japan branch of SPA Magazine. Most are designed to play as couples in mind. How I am going to translate this game This is actually a localization translation of a localized translation from Japanese -> Chinese -> English, so I won’t bother preserving the content word to word, and instead focus on clarity and readability. I’m not a professional that capable of preserving every little detail of things like honorific and puns, nor do I know how the Japanese language works, but I will try to preserve character names and anything worth preserving if my research yield any results. How we will be doing this LP We will play this like a normal CYOA and vote it scene by scene. In the spirit of CYOA you all get one chance for each girl unless you run into a quick dead end and we will move on to the next, but I will make a follow up bonus update for anything fun that we missed, so vote seriously and aim for her heart! Other game menu features will be showcased in a bonus update later. Any suggestion to improve the experience of this LP is welcome, and I personally don’t mind just showing everything. The difficulty of this game It gets progressively harder as we unlock more girls and slightly easier when we continue to the first route in the night version. However, the real difficulty actually comes from our protagonist, Kanta.  You see, this humorous game is actually a parody of dating sims, so it's really more like a comedy. Our job is to get the protagonist to go out on dates with coworkers and hairdressers and such. The game really doesn't take itself seriously and there's nothing even remotely NSFW in there. However, if you pick the wrong action for Kanta, then he will, in the most creepy and goony way, mess it up big because he’s a manchild or as someone call it, the  incarnate. So keep that in mind when you vote!

We have a clear winner on our first logical choice.    Yes, sonny?  Oh, is that so. Please have a seat.  Not at all, ma’am. Is everything to your satisfactory? Yes, I’m. Thank you very much. During work…    …  Ah!Note: Tateishi Kanta is our protagonist’s name, more on his bio later.  Nope! Nope! Work! Work!

I guess the answer can a bit vague until you realize that Kanta is an egotistic idiot. He didn't even tap the key 'Lightly'. Also, 'Enter' key have nothing to do with saving the data unless you are in some confirmation prompt.       Uh~~! So scary! This man is scaryyyyy! Miss Arata! Here! Can you come over for a moment? Hmm? What is this about… the chief is always so scary… Sigh~ how troublesome! Miss Arata, when will you ever finish your task? I’m so sorry, Chief… So stupid… (Stupid?) … and this isn’t the first time. … my apology. Alright, get back to work. …then I will return to my task…   “Maybe I’m not suitable for this job…”  I decide to slightly change any answers from now on to better reflect the result, so you all won't fall for it. keep in mind that Kanta could go all out on the wrong action.  Note: A little thought about the result: Tapping the enter lightly would most probably spook/annoy your coworker that sees you do it. Since that's a bad choice, the game decide to maximize the effect and upgrade the 'spook' to 'scary' for humor sake, but yes, the choice is vague so future answers will be modified for clarification. Also, beside making 'logical' choice, there's one more important hint that you all seems to missed that could help you make your choice.

 Bonus Update Since the ‘tap enter key’ bad choice from before is partly me and the game fault for being too vague, and since you all have been voting it correctly for the rest of the choices so far, I will change this part into the correct choice instead! Especially since this part have a larger relation boost than the others.  Phew… It’s finally done… Incidentally, this is also his ‘kind face’, which is a bad choice since he overdoes it at the other choice.  Please check it!    As I said, huge boost that we missed.

Excuse me, Kanta… Hm? That… hmm... if you won’t mind… ! … Please help me with my work! Ehh!? Sure-- This is too obvious, so I will pick C again and continue.  (This really is… my lucky break!) Of course I would help! Thank you very much!Overtime hours…  Let’s take a break! Ah, alright! I will go get some coffee! Thanks.Sometime later… Sorry for the wait. Ah, thanks a lot! Thanks for the hard work! … By the way, what do you do on your free time after work? Hmm? Things I do after work? Yeah. That would be… umm… This is a very important choice, vote very carefully.

Reaaaally? Yes, yes! Hmm… What do you do? I’m at leisure during the weekend.Nice way to say: "She doesn’t have a hobby", but she’s happy you care about her. Hmmm, I see… Oh and as for me. Yeah? On my off hours… Yes ? Generally, I… Good job goons, we won’t have been able to ask about her hobby if we talk about ours first since Kanta can be such a topic killer. But now that the toughest choice is out of the way, we have saved enough points for three of the choices here to be safe, and their sub-choices are also safe to pick (including the horrible one). Just don’t pick the wrong one here and we can almost win her heart! Nyaa fucked around with this message at 17:26 on Mar 8, 2013 |

Group 5 Movie 8 Overtime 1 Wash 3 The bad choice is actually overtime, imagine a future husband that prefers to stay at work rather than going home. Wash is actually the best choice which means you like to do chores at home. A homely man. Yeah, I watch movies regularly! Hmm. I see! Then what kind of film do you like to watch? Welcome to the sub-choice, which I mentioned that all the choices here is safe to pick. Apparently Arata is open minded (and like you enough) to accept whatever hobby you like. Go ahead, pick your choice, you earned it.

Action 5 Love 1 Sexy 2 Moe 7 Close tie for Action and Moe, since the scenes is pretty short, I will do both results! Action That would be… Action Flim! Bruce Lee, Steven Seagal, crouching tiger, hidden dragron, etc, etc. Oh, the atatatatatata kind of feeling!Moe That would be… Super moe anime! Ohhh, Kanta really is a 2D Otaku.That’s that. Back to working.     Atatatatatattatata...   I am really thankful for your help. Pheeeew, I am tired…  This is the last choice. One horrible answer that will drop us into friend-zone, one good answer, and one bad answer that we have enough points to take on and still get good ending. Good job everyone.

Brag 6 Normal 16 Courtous 2  Pheeew. Time to go home! Yeah, alright! We worked hard today! Nah, It’s all thanks to you, Kanta! You’re welcome. Very welcome.The next day at work… Good morning, Kanta. Good morning, Arata. Thanks again for last night. Not at all! … Ah, how about we go to dinner together next time? Huh! Ah, sure. Oh! Yes! Really? Really! As thanks for yesterday! Ah, for real? Of course. Thanks!   Kaaaaanta. Yeah? Hurry and swim over here~~ Alright~~ Kanta having a date with Arata at the beach!    Great job, the first hint the game gives is to make logical choice, and the second hint is actually in the character profile, specifically her preference type, which is ordinary people, so the best choice for Arata is actually Logical and Ordinary/Normal choices!

Readingaccount posted:I'd lean towards the bragging I voted for since Kanta is a manchild, but as others have said the ''extremely' courteous' descriptor is worrying as well. Should be fun to see! Also this scene is only unlocked if you didn't mess up before, so you won't see this scene in failure route. quote:The hairdresser looks like she'll be more interesting, this one was nice and all, but kind of a milquetoast tutorial. Chatting up a hairdresser sounds like it'll be a lot harder, so it looks like the training wheels may be coming off. The only easy thing seems to be Kanta not being in control in most of the situation so he won't go 'crazy' in the next route.

Failure Route Commuting to work… OMG A SEAT FOR MY POOR LEGS!  GHAAAAAAAHHHH!    During work… My epic effort deserves a moment of meditative silent.  It’s done…   When Arata doubting herself… “Maybe I’m not suitable for this job…” Don’t worry, my own experience is worst!  There’s one time where someone on the phone was speaking gibberish and I can’t understand it… Uhhh… The boss was mad like a bull! Ah, ye-yeah… that… would be obvious…Ehh… that didn’t goes well, but compel encouragement with my awesome charming face will cheer her up!   Arata… Hm? Ah… umm… Yep, is true. Although I don’t understand the situation, I believe it wasn’t as it seem! Is that so… YEAH ! NONE AT ALL! YOU CAN DO IT! YOU CAN SUCCEED IN YOUR TASK!    Arata got the phone for me, better give her a kind face!   Hello? So annoying…Arata watching me, real man speaks with STRENGTH!   Ahh~~ HOW! ARE! YOU!  !? So noisy!Maybe that was a bit too loud, I should try this again with lower volume… Hello… *Whisper* *Whisper* *Whisper* *Whisper* …*Whisper* *Whisper* !?  It feels… really creepy…Arata ask me for help, but she just using me to help her finish her job!  (This girl… she is using me… I am not that dumb to fall for it. Must think of a way… to reject her… think… think…!) (I GOT IT!) Today… I must go home to watch a show! … I understand…Actually, maybe she’s seducing me, I should help her out! Could it be… she has fallen for me? Spring has come! My spring has come! I will help you with anything, my baaaaaaby! Th-thank you very much! Of course! My baby! He calls me baby...! Creepy…That seems to not turn out well; I should just get out of here! This girl is trying to use me, I’m not that dumb. I must think of a way to get out of this. I got it! What a jerk!The next day at work… … Morning Arata. Hello. Today is another nice weather. Yeah.   A complete failure… Friend-zone end would just be Arata choosing to stay instead.

--------------------------------------------------------------- Day Two: Hairdresser --------------------------------------------------------------- Next we have Shibata Yuko, the hairdresser. She has the opposite preference of Arata and prefer interesting people, so logical choice is not required if you can keep it interesting, which could be tricky.  My Advice: Impression is the key point this time since you don’t get to meet a hairdresser everyday like your co-worker, so try to get her to remember you. Most safe normal/ordinary choice would be less effective in this route, but don’t push it too far with the memorable crazy choices. Sunday afternoon…         Ah, hello.  To be clear, Kanta didn’t have an appointment, so the second choice is a lie. Should Kanta lie? Nyaa fucked around with this message at 05:12 on Mar 12, 2013 |

Ah, I understand. Please wait a moment while I check the record book. Please do. Would now be a good time? Ah, alright. There’s no problem with your time? None at all! Thank you very much, then… Yeah? You need any specific hairdresser? This is pretty obvious.  Let me think… Yes? … “It’s you!  “Very well! Thank you very much!”  You’re welcome. Then please come this way. “This girl’s name is…”  “What is it!?”  Did you look at the name tag on her shirt? Anyway, moving on.    Yeah? What kind of hairstyle would you like? Hmm… let me think… Okay... What do you think, Ms. Yuko. Eh! Ah my… … Name… you remembers. I try to remember everything that’s cute!   Then… what kind of hairstyle would you prefer? Hmm… I wonder… Here’s a fun choice, depend on what you pick here and the sub-choices, Kanta will end with different hairstyle. Those hairstyle will affect Yuko’s impression of you later.

To deal with this problem, I will now save you from one bad choice once to get you back into the good end like how I did it in Arata's route, but only ONCE per route so if you mess up twice for one girl, it's over for her. Exception would be if the route is especially hard or long. Anyway, smiling choice win.  Ohhh! This is the first time I experience such feeling! Truly feels wonderful! This feels good! Thank you. I was worried if I might have cut it too short. Thank you very much! I should be the one to say it, thanks!End of the haircutting session…  Please come again next time.
