Welcome to "When We Meet Again - a Grøh's Visual Novel"

Hello, everyone! Welcome to "When We Meet Again - a Grøh's Visual Novel". This is Gisele and I'm here to share a few words with you about this humble project. Well, I call it humble because I'm no programmer. Actually, I'm a layman on the subject. So, for a layman work, I think it went well XD Ok... Back to the "a few words". The question many people ask me is: Why Grøh? It's a long story that I can tell all of you in another post. However, I can tell that his story has many things I use as analogies in my life. I got to know Grøh in a very difficult moment in my life and saving him in Libra of Souls was like saving me as well. Besides liking Grøh, I also like writing stories and drawing. I thought "why not write a story about what could have happened after Libra of Souls events?" I don't know about you, but during the events in it, I couldn't avoid shipping my Conduit with Grøh. They got friends, trusting each other. I felt it...

It's been a long time.

Hello guys! It's been a while since I posted anything here, I know. However, a lot has happened in my life and Soulcalibur is also not as active as it used to be. Before I saw a lot of posts on Twitter with content about him, but these days it's very rare. For today I have two pieces of news. 1) I'm working on translating the visual novel into my mother tongue. 2) Today I have the pleasure to show you an illustration of Maximo made by Tabby Chan . She opened slots for commissions and I luckily got one. For some time I wanted a drawing made by her and specifically by Maximo (you can't see it in the visual novel, but he got signs on his chest because of the malfested power. For the arms, they are tattoos. I still have to write more about him.). Glad this opportunity came up. I leave below the illustration made by her and I invite you to know her profile on Twitter . If you still don't know the visual novel, I also invite you to read it.

* SPOILER * The malfested power

 Hello, everyone! I'm here again and in today's post, I'm going to talk a little bit about Maximo and the malfested power. From here, be aware that the text will contain spoilers for the visual novel. As I put it in a previous post, Maximo was a character that was born without any intention of gaining space anywhere. He was just born because I wanted to play with Kilik, but not Kilik himself. There is a reason for this that is not so important today. However, I don't leave my Maximo by any means to play with Kilik again. At least, when I'm playing on my PS4. When I made my first casual games with Maximo, I thought: What if Maximo had been affected by the malfested power? What would he look like? What would a bad boy Maximo look like? So I created the look that you can see below. At the time, I still didn't think I would use it in Grøh's visual novel. The ideas for it were still being formulated. Maximo in one of the outfits I made for him in the game. And th...

Maximo's "birth"

Hello, everyone! Today we are going to talk a little about this guy in the photo. His name is Maximo and he is one of the characters that appear in the story "When We Meet Again". Maximo "was born" without any pretense of being a character in a story. When I started playing Soulcalibur VI, my main character was Kilik. Until my second month in the game, I still hadn't seen Grøh's individual story or played Libra of Souls. Only after playing these two modes did I discover true happiness within the game: playing with Grøh. However, I still wanted to have an extra character to play and Kilik, of all the characters in the game, was the one I knew how to play second. However, I didn't want to play with Kilik himself, which led me to create a character with his fighting style. At that moment, Maximo was born. Gradually I created things for him, for example, he as an agent of Aval, why he fights with a rod, what his personality would be like, and so on. A lot ca...

Hello, people! Today I'm here to bring you a one page comic I drew few days ago showing a situation between the characters in the visual novel. The scene in the visual novel isn't exactly like this but I tried to show you how things go between them. Maximo is a character who likes to tease which is the kind of thing that pisses Grøh off XD So take a look at the comic page and get to know a little bit of the characters ^_^ Just click on the image to make it bigger or use the link for DeviantArt to see it better. You can find the picture on DeviantArt too. Just click here .
