Majikoi! Love Me Seriously! S - it's a wacky visual novel about a group of high-schoolers in a world where melee combat is pretty much commonplace and all the girl MCs are action manga level of strong. Series is hilarious and I can't stop playing it after getting swept of my feet by Momo in the first game (ended up blazing through it in two days which doesn't happen often these days). This one is a sequel with the same (though epanded) crew and I really can't wait to jump back in.
As for the monthly thread, I feel like if it doesn't happen "officially" the first person to have something to write should just post one themselves instead of waiting. Not like there's a lot of activity here so it should remain visible long enough to gain traction.
