    Congrats for the 15th year of Ragnarok Online! Back in the day I debuted myself, there were a lot of people who took care of me and that’s the reason I have deep emotion for this game.
    I’ll be looking forward to the development of the world in this game!

Odawara Hakone (オダワラハコネ)

    I had been drawing comics in the past. There are so many nostalgic people that have been giving me an inspiration to draw pictures for them.
    Suddenly, many nostalgias like: squeaking sound of the bridge to island full of porings or seeing small mushrooms grow at the shallow while walking on the mountain that connects to Prontera vividly pops out inside my mind. No doubt RO is truely my hometown.

Akita Mai (秋田米 - or Akita Kome ? I’m sorry if I read it wrong)

Congratulations for the 15th anniversary of Ragnarok Online!
As it is, let’s hope for more & more development until this game run into 20th anniversary!

    Congratulation for the 15th anniversary of Ragnarok Online. I think RO is really a great game that even though 15 years have passed, the game can still offer players for more charming contents and attract players!
    From now on, I’m gonna have fun with my 15-years-friends in this game. And with my whole energy!

    Congratulation for the 15th anniversary of Ragnarok Online!
All of relationships between me and online games began with Ragnarok Online. This is a great honor to be able to send this celebrating comment.

    My first MMORPG life is the Ragnarok Online on the beta-test era. I still remember the day I got goosebumps as I can actually see many other players while walking in towns at the first day when I logged in.

    And since then, I was addicted and addicted. Sometimes I hunted Sorusuke (Soldier Skeleton) like crazy. Sometimes 3,000 Snowiers or Sleepers. If the numbers are put together, it would be over a million! Even though doing this is somewhat affecting my health more or less until now, I will say I love online games so much because of the great fun from the world of Ragnarok Online.
     Let me humbly wish from the bottom of my heart that the world of Ragnarok Online will be expanded wider and wider!

    The 15 years period, the period of agitation that only 1 title is still alive for 15 years. This is really really amazing.
    Although it was a short time that I was assigned to compose 13th anniversary song and Rearranged Album 2~4 years ago, it was a lot of fun work for me. Maybe the same fun as the Ragnarok Online is…
    To admin staff who left their works in the game history of Japan and all players who expanded the fun of online games in this world. Let’s celebrate. The 15th anniversary of Ragnarok Online.

    Yeah!! I’ve finally entered the game! Congratulations for the 15th anniversary of Ragnarok Online!
    The game I addicted the most back in the day I was a student in college, is Ragnarok Online. Since the world in this MMO is too much fun, I almost forgot to sleep, to eat or even to go to the college.
    Sure there are so many places I like in this game but I love the BGMs too. Even the time I have no idea what to do, just strolling around the fields and listen to musics is pleasure.
    Soon I’d decide to temporary drop from the college, made my own rearrangement CD for RO, and decided to learn the music (His comment is beyond the boundary which I can’t see it until the end, sorry)

    I think Ragnarok Online isn’t just a game. Since it can live for 15 years, I would call it “every day’s life” rather than the “amusement”. As a game that brings fun and pleasure, we would like to show our thanks by saying “Thank you for embracing our everyday’s life”.
    If we untied the history of this game, we got 2 flowers that born on November 29th, 2001’s open beta-test and August 14th, 2002’s open-beta-test 2. In the language of flower, they’re Begonia which means “The profession of love” and Globe amaranth which means “The affection that will never change”. When compared to Ragnarok Online, this will be a clarified atmosphere inside the winter that swears eternal love to player that will never fade away even the heat of summer of the next year has come.
    And when the official service started on December 1st, 2002, according to one’s theory, it’s much like the “Dracaena” which means “Happiness”. I wish good luck for the dev team who made Ragnarok Online to support the game industry, admin team and all players.

    Congratulations for the 15th anniversary of Ragnarok Online!
    Many online games recently went through a reformation. Though, the one who dares to continually improve itself while keeping its merit inherited from the past, is RO. I think its potential is still inestimable.
    Now, the following maybe an advertisement (lol) but if you are coming back to RO for the first time after this long 15 years, you should definitely check out our articles made for beginner/returner at Weekly RO Challenge (Japanese - author). The interval of 5 years, 10 years or 15 years. The longer you were absence, the more degree of surprise you will get for the game!

    Congratulations for the 15th anniversary of Ragnarok Online!
    When I met this game, it was 14th anniversary. Although saying “RO is a game that changed my life” isn’t exaggeration.
Just meeting this game influenced my life so much.

    It was the first time I’m so addicted to the game. As a ragnarok idol, I changed my love that I have for the game to my work. I’d like to show my gratitude that I’ve been having a chance to do many works that are RO-related.

    As the one who works in the game industry, anywhere I go, there will be many people who would like to show their fandom by saying “I know you from RO!”. And this is just only 1 thing I feel so glad.

    For me, RO has been an irreplaceable game. I would say it’s my home and the origin of my life.

Additional info. from translator :
    Gungho officially opened a website dedicated her cosplays.

It seems Nakamura Toshinobu, 1 of the admin team is so enjoying. He’s recruiting someone to be his wife!


And me too.

 

Greeting 15th anniversary of Ragnarok Online

15 years ago, RO was the very first challenge for Gungho. Since the beginning of our official service, our company went through many challenges and now we are still able to continue our service because of everyone who love and support the game.

We will change these gratitudes into our new sources of challenge and try our best to bring more smile and impression to everyone. Thank you.

where is my loli?

[OBBO]

The point of this topic is becoming ecchi ...

( https://www.ebay.co....a-/291578299410 )

I heard from my friend that in Japan, nun's uniform is more like a fashion. Don't know if it's exactly true though...

 

 

I will go to church everyday for this

Without Japanizing beam, her stocking is already a real charm XD

But when I image-googled for the word "archbishop", it ruined my imagination... OTL

 

oh implants thing again where is that thread huh? anyone? XD

I think it should be an option to set breasts' size while creating new character.

Unfortunately, doing this for 2D sprite is more difficult than for 3D model because artists must draw every outfit for every size.

 

where is my loli?

Go for the Kyoukou-sama (pope) 

( https://www.gaming-c...articles?page=2 & http://riseriko.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-62.html )

[lorenz1375]

Pope > loli from gx quest > any other loli in game

[Nix02]

Should I call the po.. police?

 

Is there like a site where I can get the newer wallpapers for RO? My search results are always the old ones.

 

@ OBBO

Thanks for the treat!

@ OBBO
Thanks for the treat!

There's a link to official page at Gungho with ton of beautiful wallpapers :

https://ragnarokonli...sory/wallpaper/

 

Sometimes I got new from Pixiv with tag ラグナロクオンライン (Ragnarok Online) or Danbooru.

There are thousand of pages that will bring you back to around year ~2006. You can check them all out if you have enough effort (lol)

Spoiler

 

Sorry, think I can't post the link for Danbooru because most pictures there are NSFW which against the rule of this forums...

[soudou]

Thanks for sharing and all your work in translating OBBO.

All the artwork is really amazing. I like Odawara Hakone's style, the eye shape etc. kind of reminds me of another Japanese artist's style I like called Mitsumi Misato.

That's interesting that RO was the first MMO of the author of "And You Thought There Is Never a Girl Online?" I was watching the anime adaptation for that some time ago.

The Cool & Create musician's comment was fun, the BGM to this game is great. That reminds me, not RO related but I enjoy listening to this parody Cool & Create did of one of their tracks.

Did I make a mistake on localization ? lol
Thank you for always reading too!
