Sisters go to fight off the bandits to save their native village; however, they get a counterattack and become captive.
**Important**:
1. You need to change locale to Japanese.
2. No need to install.
3. Translation Notes:
- "I kept the way the two sisters address each other.
Kuu-nee : It's an abbreviation of her name and nee
(Japanese for Older Sister). You might know it from nee-chan or Onee-sama. Kinda like "Big Sis Kuu"
Ricchan : It's an abbrevation of her name stuck together with the suffix -chan (which is the "cute" suffix.) Kinda like "Lil' Ri(nna)"
Basically, it shows they are close to each other. After trying a few variants, I decided to keep it in Japanese because the English variants all sounded awkward to me."

I never uploaded Hatsukoi 1/1 cos you need the virtual disk image files to run the English version. Properly working pre-patched release is not possible unless someone cracks the exe file that comes with the English patch. Also, I'm pretty sure the English patch is not working with the download version.
XVZero, yes, it only asks for the first time launching it and then never again, but it'll ask again, if you move your pre-installed game folder to another PC or if you delete your save files. The game won’t run for people who don’t have the virtual disk image files.
