IMPORTANT: Regarding the use of my Nitro+Chiral/BL/BLVN Scans

I know I do not use Tumblr at all in the past year (but plan to be active on here again soon), but I feel as if I need to put this on here as well, given that what I want to say has to do with scans I have uploaded and provided onto here in the past.

If you’re going to reupload any scans of mine I did in the past (and future), I ask for a link back to my postings.

(cont. below)

Reason why I am saying this is that I recently came aware of a Twitter user reuploading some of my old scans without linking back or credit. This user, whom I will not name for privacy for now, has been doing this not only with my works, but my other friends/mutuals within the Nitro+Chiral fandom. It's severely saddening and disappointing, and I'm speaking up not only for myself, but my friends/mutuals as well.

I do not have an issue with sharing my scans; I share them and for the reasons of wanting others to see content that may be hard to get a hold of. What I DO have an issue with is the lack of credit/linking credit. I know what my scans look like; I do them a particular way.

I understand how hard it is for many fans especially (in the N+C fandom outside of Japan) to get hands on items, and I don’t mind the sharing of my scans I created for people to have access, but all I ask at the very LEAST is a link back to my original upload. Just a link. That's all I ask for.

I want to provide content for people who cannot afford/be able to get their hands on it due to items being so old they are out of production. Not crediting me is a major disrespect as I have put a lot of money, time and effort too, into providing scans of content. A lot of my items I have purchased have come from Japan itself, it's an expensive and long time going out in effort to search for a lot of the stuff I have gotten. I've even pulled all-nighters translating content (in the past).

Because of this, I have decided from here on out, when I do upload a scan it will be watermarked in some form. Scans will have watermarks on every single page possibly in multiple areas (mostly hidden), and translations from here on out will have hidden watermarks if they are done solely by me. My translations already come with a credit page, but that doesn't seem to be enough anymore unfortunately.

I was planning on returning part-time to translating and providing scans of content in the next coming months due to time in my personal life finally letting up. What I was not expecting, however, was an individual pretty much reposting my old scans without credit. I hate to do this, but all they had to do was literally just post a link back to my scans.

So the good news, expect this account to become more active in the coming months (hopefully) with new scans and translations and such. Unfortunately though, what will be provided will be watermarked from here on out.

If the individual whom I am referring to happens to see this, since they seem to be pulling content from Tumblr mostly (which is why I am popping on here to say something); please just credit where credit is due. Not just with my stuff, but other's as well. Saying "idk who OP is" is not the right thing to do when you know you are posting content you haven't scanned or taken pictures of yourself. Reverse image search to find the sources.

I hope you understand, and I appreciate you all that have stuck around and continue to. Hope to be active on here again soon to provide content for you all.

Much appreciated, Mellow (Meru)

Reminder that I am far more active on my Twitter.

Slow Damage DramaCD Vol.2: Rei Afterstory

Translation Summary of Slow Damage's Vol.2 Drama CD Rei After Story, from AmazonJP.

See below cut:

After finishing the life-threatening Money Match, Rei now spends his free days traveling around with Towa. However, one day when they return to Shinjinkai from their travel destination, they pick up a runaway boy named Kouki.

To Kouki, who doesn’t want to return to his home, Rei proposes that he works temporarily at “Rost”. On the other hand, Towa expresses to be more vigilant.

At first, Rei was watching over Kouki, but he gradually began to feel uncomfortable. Through Kouki, Rei once again faces the question of what body art means to him…

The second volume of the Drama CD is available for preorder from the following links (some with preorder bonuses, so act fast).

It has a release date of 6/21/22.

Slow Damage Guide: Index

This is a guide to Nitro+Chirals recent BL game, Slow Damage.

This guide serves a purpose to those who need help with the choice system and how to get Good and Bad Endings. This guide, of course, will spoil when these endings take place and what the answers are to said endings and routes. Proceed with caution when viewing this guide.

Although this guide was made during my gameplay of the Japanese version of Slow Damage, this can be used with the English release once it is out! There shouldn’t be too many differences.

How to use the guide:

When reading the guides per character route, for exploration parts, they will look like this:

Exploration #1: • Murase Clinic >Negative • Special E Zone • Doraku Dori >Positive • Towa’s Room >Negative

Positive/Negative responses yield possible Inspiration, which is used during Psychological Dives in Euphoria. The choices indicated under certain responses are the ones that yield correct choices for Inspiration. For chapter one, these choices are highly important for which character’s route you end up on, hence why there are differences within the choices of chapter one of all routes.

Italiced exploration choices mean there are no positive/negative choices to be made. It’s still highly advised to visit the places, however, as it gives lore to the story or a unique short dialogue.

Further into the story, sometimes choices do not yield Inspiration. This means either a Positive or Negative response can be used as it doesn’t affect the outcome of the story. Just slight differences in the dialogue you receive, if anything.

Slow Damage is a VERY different game from Nitro+Chiral’s past BL games regarding the choice system, so I tried my best to make this guide as comprehensible as possible. 

Common Routes:

• Rei’s Route Guide

• Taku’s Route Guide

Locked Routes:

These can only be played once Rei and/or Taku’s routes are completed

• Madarame’s Route Guide

• Fujieda’s Route Guide*

*Note: Can only be played once completion of ALL three Routes.

Slow Damage Guide - Taku’s Route

The following are choices that are made to get onto Taku’s route and the choices you make during Taku’s route. These will both lead to the Bad and Good ends.

These are the choices I made, and I double checked over again for all choices possible for the maximum best playthrough.

These choices are based off the Japanese release of Slow Damage. However, I have updated the translation to fit the English release (for the names of the Districts and inspiration answers, at least).

However, Taku for some reason does not wish to reopen the clinic. Because of his unsuccessful attitude, Towa asks Taku and he runs away after they have a quarrel. Later, there is a report that a person had collapsed... What is Taku's decision?
