'New Term Chime - Hatoful Boyfriend ' is a high quality rip of 'New Term Chime' from Hatoful Boyfriend. This rip does not contain the advertised track at all. Instead, this rip plays the Bird Up! Intro, but with the chords changed to play The Nutshack theme. Additionally, one of the bird noises has been replaced with a Loud Nigra gasp. A button quail who teaches mathematics in room 2-3. While he's well-known as a mathematician but suffers from narcolepsy so he often falls asleep in the midst his lectures.

Comments[edit]

@Silver seren: I know this game is currently listed in the Humble Bundle, and has got some coverage (particularly with their..interesting..pillow case) if that's worth investigating for sources and updating the article with. ~SuperHamster 00:44, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

Added. SilverserenC 02:04, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

I have tagged File:Hatoful Boyfriend screenshot.png for automatic size reduction by a bot. ~SuperHamster 04:12, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

Done, image reduced. ~SuperHamster 23:53, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

The gameplay section mentions characters not yet introduced in the article (such as when explaining additions to later versions of the game, or specifying characters needed to trigger certain things). I think this is both confusing (coming before the characters' introduction section) and unnecessary detailing for a gameplay description. ~SuperHamster 04:12, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

Names removed and trimmed the detail a bit. SilverserenC 02:04, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

The Bad Boys Love plot summary is in-depth and well-written, but it's a bit too detailed and lengthy for the article. Would be worth looking into and trimming excessive details whenever possible. ~SuperHamster 04:12, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

The sequel, HolidayStar, is covered in the lead, but only has a couple mentions scattered through the rest of the article - the sequel should ideally be covered in the body, too. ~SuperHamster 23:53, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

When contacted for help they always blame my internet.' I also have fiber optic internet and no issues with my router. If youu2019re experiencing technical issues, contact our support team at Theyu2019ll be happy to help.' ,851000000,null,'9','Erica Haile',null,null,2,null,null,null,'a fun game just a couple cons: To get/give give and get rewards you have to have Facebook. ,788000000,13,'Game Insight','Weu2019re always thankful for any constructive criticism with detailed explanations of flaws or bugs.

Info added. There's not much to go with though, since there was no official release. It didn't get much coverage. Hopefully Devolver does an official release for it at some point, which will prompt more coverage. SilverserenC 02:04, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

As for Bad Boys Love, i'm not sure how it can be trimmed that much. It is basically the entire plot and has to weave in the backstories of about 10 characters from all of their routes. SilverserenC 02:05, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

Fair enough - thanks for the rest of the changes! Will look at again and offer any final input. ~SuperHamster 19:24, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

@Silver seren: I noticed that File:Hatoful_Boyfriend_screenshot.png is from the older version of the game; I imagine a screenshot of the remake would be more appropriate? I've got a screenshot of the same scene from the newer edition ready to upload if you agree. ~SuperHamster 19:45, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

@SuperHamster: Fine by me. I don't really have an opinion either way on which one is used. The one from the remake probably looks better though. SilverserenC 20:24, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
I also wouldn't mind have a side-by-side comparison of the two images; I think it would be good to show for the sake of commentary, which I feel would meet our fair use requirements. ~SuperHamster 20:27, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
Whatever you'd prefer. SilverserenC 20:47, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
Done~SuperHamster 21:32, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

Pass: Everything looks good to me, very impressed with the depth of the article and all the requirements seem to be met. Thanks for the nomination and the work you've put into it (along with anyone else who might be reading this, who has worked on the article). Cheers, ~SuperHamster 21:32, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

Weird phrasing[edit]

'Yuuya explains that the protagonist's body had been gathered in the chemistry lab.' What does this mean? How can a single body be 'gathered'? Should it say 'found'? Equinox (talk) 16:46, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

The body had been dismembered, and the parts were found in numerous boxes by different characters. The paragraph doesn't make that very clear, though it does use the term 'dismembered' in the sentence after the one you quoted. So, the wording is accurate, but that sentence could probably use some better set-up. Eishiya (talk) 00:42, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

Proposed merge with List of Hatoful Boyfriend characters[edit]

Character list is unsourced and not independently notable from the main series entry. Perhaps a few things should be merged (if necessary) but the rest of it is primary source stuff outside the scope of a generalist encyclopedia such as ours. Plus this main article is GA-rated so it sufficiently covers the series characters as necessary in the dedicated section. czar 02:09, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

or, we could source it instead, since it's a detailed, accurate article from my knowledge, and it isn't just filling space Aleccat (talk) 22:53, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

You're welcome to do so, but most of it either (1) cannot be sourced to reliable, secondary sources, (2) is not noteworthy enough for mention in an encyclopedia article (video game trivia), or (3) has no valid reason for summary style split from the parent article. czar 03:24, 9 August 2016 (UTC)

    Comments[edit]

    @Silver seren: I know this game is currently listed in the Humble Bundle, and has got some coverage (particularly with their..interesting..pillow case) if that's worth investigating for sources and updating the article with. ~SuperHamster 00:44, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

    Added. SilverserenC 02:04, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

    I have tagged File:Hatoful Boyfriend screenshot.png for automatic size reduction by a bot. ~SuperHamster 04:12, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

    Done, image reduced. ~SuperHamster 23:53, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

    The gameplay section mentions characters not yet introduced in the article (such as when explaining additions to later versions of the game, or specifying characters needed to trigger certain things). I think this is both confusing (coming before the characters' introduction section) and unnecessary detailing for a gameplay description. ~SuperHamster 04:12, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

    Names removed and trimmed the detail a bit. SilverserenC 02:04, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

    The Bad Boys Love plot summary is in-depth and well-written, but it's a bit too detailed and lengthy for the article. Would be worth looking into and trimming excessive details whenever possible. ~SuperHamster 04:12, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

    The sequel, HolidayStar, is covered in the lead, but only has a couple mentions scattered through the rest of the article - the sequel should ideally be covered in the body, too. ~SuperHamster 23:53, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

    Info added. There's not much to go with though, since there was no official release. It didn't get much coverage. Hopefully Devolver does an official release for it at some point, which will prompt more coverage. SilverserenC 02:04, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

    As for Bad Boys Love, i'm not sure how it can be trimmed that much. It is basically the entire plot and has to weave in the backstories of about 10 characters from all of their routes. SilverserenC 02:05, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

    Fair enough - thanks for the rest of the changes! Will look at again and offer any final input. ~SuperHamster 19:24, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

    @Silver seren: I noticed that File:Hatoful_Boyfriend_screenshot.png is from the older version of the game; I imagine a screenshot of the remake would be more appropriate? I've got a screenshot of the same scene from the newer edition ready to upload if you agree. ~SuperHamster 19:45, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

    @SuperHamster: Fine by me. I don't really have an opinion either way on which one is used. The one from the remake probably looks better though. SilverserenC 20:24, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
    I also wouldn't mind have a side-by-side comparison of the two images; I think it would be good to show for the sake of commentary, which I feel would meet our fair use requirements. ~SuperHamster 20:27, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
    Whatever you'd prefer. SilverserenC 20:47, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
    Done~SuperHamster 21:32, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

    Pass: Everything looks good to me, very impressed with the depth of the article and all the requirements seem to be met. Thanks for the nomination and the work you've put into it (along with anyone else who might be reading this, who has worked on the article). Cheers, ~SuperHamster 21:32, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

    Weird phrasing[edit]

    'Yuuya explains that the protagonist's body had been gathered in the chemistry lab.' What does this mean? How can a single body be 'gathered'? Should it say 'found'? Equinox (talk) 16:46, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

    The body had been dismembered, and the parts were found in numerous boxes by different characters. The paragraph doesn't make that very clear, though it does use the term 'dismembered' in the sentence after the one you quoted. So, the wording is accurate, but that sentence could probably use some better set-up. Eishiya (talk) 00:42, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

    Proposed merge with List of Hatoful Boyfriend characters[edit]

    Character list is unsourced and not independently notable from the main series entry. Perhaps a few things should be merged (if necessary) but the rest of it is primary source stuff outside the scope of a generalist encyclopedia such as ours. Plus this main article is GA-rated so it sufficiently covers the series characters as necessary in the dedicated section. czar 02:09, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

    or, we could source it instead, since it's a detailed, accurate article from my knowledge, and it isn't just filling space Aleccat (talk) 22:53, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

    You're welcome to do so, but most of it either (1) cannot be sourced to reliable, secondary sources, (2) is not noteworthy enough for mention in an encyclopedia article (video game trivia), or (3) has no valid reason for summary style split from the parent article. czar 03:24, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
