Free Burma

"What is there to be discouraged about?
Gandhi said the victory is in the struggle itself.
The struggle itself is the most important thing. I tell
our followers that when we achieve democracy, we will look back
with nostalgia on the struggle and how pure we were."

What is a Bishojo Game?

A bishōjo (bishoujo) game also known as game of beautiful girls is a genre of Japanese video game dealing with interactions with female game characters delivered in graphic style similar to manga or anime. Most bishōjo games involve some semblance of romance or seduction, leaning towards adult versions, which are destinctly not for the faint hearted.

A phenomenon in Japan, Bishoujo games comprise an important segment of the gaming industry there, with some games selling more than a million copies. The bishōjo game industry has little presence outside of Asia, only a few titles have been translated or commercialized for Western audiences. In the West, bishōjo remains one of the least-known genres in the video game industry.
