Translator Notes:
1. YOU MUST START A NEW GAME FOR THE TRANSLATION TO WORK BECAUSE SOME NAMES AND TEXT ARE STORED IN SAVE FILES!!!!
2. The only change from filling up the pink bar at Reason Level 0 is a minor change to the standing picture. There are no changes to any of Rikune's reactions or scenes. Don't bother unless you're having fun doing it.
3. Please support the developer by buying the game at https://www.dlsite.com/maniax/work/=/product_id/RJ01292217.html
These sell worse than most generic RPGs on DLSite despite being more creative. I would be surprised if the developer made more than $10,000 total from Shinobi Gear in 2 years. If you want more games from them, then please buy it!

Q: What is the fastest way to unlock all scenes?
A: The long bad-end scenes can be instantly unlocked in the gallery without playing the game. The short H scenes encountered during the game aren't unlocked in the gallery.
Q: What is this "translation_bonus" folder?
A: Short additional information and a couple translated images from the developers blog for those invested in the story of Shinobi Gear or the relationship between Rikune and Suzu. Some of it relates to cut content.
Q: Does Reason Level affect scenes?
A: Reason Level does not affect bad ends. Reason Level changes Rikune's reactions during short H scenes and harassment events, in some cases a lot. There are a few exceptions, but for most events, Rikune has four tiers of reactions:
1. Reason Level 4+5
2. Reason Level 2+3
3. Reason Level 1
4. Reason Level 0
Q: Do abnormal conditions affect scenes?
A: Pheromones, Weakening, Lewd Desires, Aphrodisiacs, and having a low Reason Level all have a chance to affect what happens in random events. Meaning the events that can occur on any space. Including some of the good events turning into bad events. Also, Weakening and Lewd Desires have a chance to briefly extend harassment events, sometimes several times in a row. All of these changes are random and the chance increases depending on the severity of Rikune's condition.
Q: Do random events change between missions?
A: The "SP" and "?" spaces are different on each mission. A couple of new "red space" events are added to the random pool in Mission 2, and new boss attacks using passengers are added starting in Mission 3.
Q: Where can I buy the game?
A: https://www.dlsite.com/maniax/work/=/product_id/RJ01292217.html
Q: Who made this game?
A: https://ci-en.dlsite.com/creator/14414
Any rights to the translation, including any commercial and distribution rights, are released and assigned exclusively to the game's original creator. They can use the translation to sell the game in English, if they want.
Q: What kind of translation is this?
A: Very heavily edited MTL based on several translation engines. Like Shinobi Gear, a lot of effort still went into this, including looking up the meaning of individual words and a couple big translation re-writes when we realized we made a mistake later on. At least 80 hours went into the translation between the two of us. It's not perfect, but we'd be happy if you enjoy it!
Q: What differences are there from the original game?
A: Outside of translated texts and images, a couple of minor oversights in the original release involving text not updating properly were fixed.
Q: Any other notes on this translation?
A: We're a little more experienced and understand a little more Japanese this time around, so there are some technical and stylistic differences from how Shinobi Gear was translated. Hopefully you will consider these as improvements!
