I've been meaning to write about this eroge called Himawari, after reading Zepy's review this week - especially since, unlike him, an "adventure game about living with loli aliens" would definitely be "my kind of thing". Not to be confused with the totally-unrelated homonymous anime, the game Himawari was created by the doujin group Blank Note and released in late 2007 for the very modest price of 1000 yen (not even $10). But despite its apparent cheapness, the game has been selling out like hot keeki, leaving behind it a long trail of excited fans and sticky tissues in Japan, so...

... so here's the reason / perfect excuse for me writing this post: according to a comment Zepy received today, somebody out there has "been translating the game for the past couple of months", all by himself. He also says he'll have the game fully translated by August or September. Well, ganbatte!

You'll find some low-res screenshots in our Himawari gallery, to see if it's worth holding your breath for this translation.
