>>> Very nice but, why Prima Doll is listed as an evil character?.

[Tavrobel]

Tell it to the content crafters.

[Jessweeee♪]

I wouldn't be surprised if that was my doing...I made a lot of weird mistakes xD

[Momiji]

Well, I'm planning on fixing mistakes tonight, but I don't know anything about the game, so don't hold back on telling me game-related errors, please. Otherwise, I'll only be fixing grammar and spelling errors.
