That is actually sort of funny how some major plot points, like "mysterious" news article that nobody wants to talk about, get spoiled just because Evelien speaks perfect Japanese :D
I'm more impressed that the japanese is legit - it could have been nonsense, but no, they kept it legit enough for a japanese speaker to be able to read and understand it.
I worked in a hotel and would do this to Karens 😊 "My thermostat isn't working" "Huh, yeah I checked it an it's fine." "But it's not blowing cool air" "Yes it is ._."
@@goofiestofgoobers6030lol I get your point! BUT it is annoying when the thermostat ACTUALLY is broke! 😂 I’ll never forget years ago we went to Disney for my 21st birthday and we were just sooo looking forward to getting in from the airport to our hotel to cool off… it was like a BOILER ROOM! Thankfully they switched our room… but I felt really bad because I had to call down three times before they went a maintenance man who said it was definitely broken and that it couldn’t be fixed (they needed to order a new part apparently). But yeah, Karen’s who always have a “problem” are the WORST!
I love how the plot point of him refusing to translate the newspaper clipping got completely negated. Mysterious Japanese text no one wants to translate? Not on this channel!
Yay! I've been waiting for this. I love Nancy Drew games and the fact you add another layer of understanding with your knowledge of the culture is awesome.
Please play all the Nancy Drew Games. The Curse of Blackmoor Manor is another great one. Also the Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake. Actually all of them, I love them so much lol
bruh i havent seen these before, and i am so in for more lol how is it so engaging, and yet relaxing at the same time XD (formatted the thought really poorly the first two posts */shrug/*)
Bless Thiss Mess Exactly! My bf came into the room and was like...whatcha watchin? Lol I hope she plays all the retro nancy drew games tbh, I’d watch them all!
I just finished replaying it last week and here I am watching someone else play it lol. This game is just so cool because of Japan and its actually pretty scary I love it
binging this whole series because I'm up with anxiety and can't sleep. the nostalgia and your play style is very calming!! :) awesome game, thank u for this!!
Fun fact: yes, the old lady is one of only two people with a Caucasian name in the credits (who played a non-Caucasian role). Rentaro's actor is not of Japanese descent, but he at least doesn't go ham on separating each syllable, and understands when to use a voiceless r and a trilled r.
Do you know what type of caucasian the name sounded? Because i found it surprising gab thought it might be an American trying to sound Japanese because she sounds pretty german to me. Unless its an american who thinks Japanese accents sound similar to German accents.
@@Disastorm Her name is Walayn Sharples, and she's an American, from Washington state, apparently. Hasn't been in very much, which is surprising since she's in her 70s or so, from her Google images.
@@BigGrabowski Besides Lani Minella (Nancy), I think pretty much all of the voice actors they used for these games were somewhat near Seattle since that's where the company was/is based.
Hindsight is 20/20 but she could've just been fluent in English because she was born in an English speaking country and the performance wouldn't need to be as forced lol. Oh well, this used to be the norm and never called out in the past. Honestly grandma's voice is the only one that's super wonky here
@@Bluessoulphoenix where her interactive made this game has a very big asian american community, they already went out of their way to make sure this game was super accurate to japanese culture they definitely could have found japanese voice actors just a mile down the road from where they were recording
1:05:58 now I want to hear Savannah saying all the Bane voice lines. Just the way she usually talks, but like "I was born into it, molded by it!" and all that jazz xD
I couldn't wait for the videos to come to yt,so I just finished watching the playthrough on twitch and I looooooove it!!! The VA was amazing! For a game that's 10 years old, I wasn't expecting that. And amazing script, the dialogues were funny as hell! Great jumpscares too. The puzzles were what one would expect from a game like this in 2010, kinda weird, but since it had the japanese theme, the sudokus, nanograms, etc were very welcome ^•^! Overall really loved watching you play this ^•^!!! Can't wait for the next Snoopy Nancy adventure!!!
Yay! I'm late, but the second episode is finally here! I never really knew about the Nancy Drew games, but I really enjoyed the first episode and how you were able to offer additional insight into the language and culture. I'll excitedly wait for the next episodes too!
I remember being a little girl and watching my mom play this game. I wanted to play the Nancy Drew games myself so badly, but I was a tiny child who was just learning her arithmetic, and all of these puzzles went straight over my head. It's so cool to follow along with someone again, and it's even cooler to watch someone fluent in Japanese be awesome at it!
We’ve had a very long week at home and we’re just so glad to settle down and catch up on this vid. So fun thank you ✨ We’ve been talking about how nosy Nancy is in this game!! In the other ones we’ve seen she’s usually invited in on a case but here she’s sneaking around so much 😮 Looking forward to more!!
My goodness.. Watching you solve those number puzzles got me feeling real nostalgic. My mom who's passed away had tons of Sudoku books, she was a master at them! She tried to show me but I never really got it down. I wish I could have shown her Renograms, those seem really fun ❤
This is just a small nit-pick, but did anyone else notice that in the photo of Kasumi, her kimono (or yukata) has the inner collar folded right over the left, rather than the traditional left over the right. The outter clothing is folded correctly, but the inner layer isn't. If I remember correctly, my Japanese language teacher told us that the reason Japanese people don't fold the collar right over left is because that is considered bad luck, so they always fold it left over right. I dunno, just a small detail that I noticed.
it's not often I legit like all the characters in one of these kinds of games but man they are all so unique and interesting, and (most of) the voice acting is really good too!
Jesus, Nancy is super nosey in this one. XD Nancy: Tell me about why you stopped working with the paranormal. Savannah: I'd rather not. It's too traumatizing to think about. Nancy: But I like opening old wounds! Savannah: No! Nancy: Pretty plllleeeeeaase? Savannah: Goodbye Nancy. * Click *
Thank you for uploading more of this; I was so excited when I saw it earlier and could hardly wait to find time to watch it all! I can't wait to see how this will end.
Fucking love it 😂. These two streams have been a proper good laugh for everyone, and it's been really interactive for viewers with all the puzzles. Who knew Nancy Drew would be a good view?! Also I think we and yourself included have really enjoyed all the Japanese culture and translations.
I’m so glad I found your channel. I found it because of your Chilla’s Art games but to see that you’ve played the Nancy drew games just made my whole night. I’ve played all of them growing up except midnight in Salem because my computer broke and I haven’t been able to replace it yet. I can’t wait to watch all of them and relive the experience!
my mom and i just finished watching your nancy drew shadow of waters edge playthrough on twitch. our favorite nancy drew game we played when i grew up was phantom of venice! itd be awesome if you played that! that and the trail of the twister :) love your videos!
Thanks for fastening the puzzle solving. I mean I like watching people solving puzzles that are actually part of the story in game, but watching someone solving sudokus etc... ^^; It's fun when you do it yourself, but watching is a bit different... I hope I don't sound too rude. > 3 > I did play this game myself few years ago, but I think I got stuck on that bento part and never could pick up the game again. I can't remember why, though.
I love that you streamed these games. My sister and I played these ALL the time when we were younger, so it's a wonderful walk down memory lane to see you play.
As somebody who is very "maths deficit" the sudoku/renogram parts of the game are more nightmarish to me than any grudge bearing ghost. I'm sad to have missed this stream, but maybe it was for the best. If I was part of the chat hive-mind you mentioned, we'd be playing this game until 2021 ;p
I can't help but hear a very slight similarity between Nancy's voice and old-school Ash Ketchum, and now I can't unhear it... I suppose they also share the same energy; overconfidence, curiosity/nosiness, and are equally oblivious to social convention
Speaking of trying to open the wrong hotel room door...I was staying at an older hotel (they still used keys)..I went up to my room for the night and after I unlocked the door I realized I was in the wrong room. I'm not sure if all the rooms could be opened with the same key or what. I was so weirded out I couldn't sleep.
Gab: Can I use my dictionary on it? Me: YOU are the dictionary 😂 I Love how you teach us about Japanese culture and such. You’re awesome, keep up the amazingness Gab 😁
Also, Gab, you can use the avatar program in Yumis computer, send them to your phone, and then set them as avatars for contacts. Just a fun little thing
Bruh i just realized the story is based on that japanese folk tales that you read at the start, the one where the woman didn't fall into the person's manipulation
a) you shouldn't wait till a week before your exam to start studying and worrying about doing lessons b) talk to your teacher, not the youtube comments section
I can’t get over how after she offers to help him get the collar so he can make amends with his girlfriend the. she treats him like a villain, saying his gesture was built on a lie, calling him stinky in the save file and in the phone convo saying that he made her buy the collar and posed as if he got it, like girl that was the entire point of you getting that collar, you offered to help him! 😂

Honestly saw that coming miles away considering how this game was made for a non-JP speaking audience but I'm far from disappointed by it, haha.
I'm more impressed that the japanese is legit - it could have been nonsense, but no, they kept it legit enough for a japanese speaker to be able to read and understand it.
Imagine if hotel staff actually just gaslit you like that every time you had a problem 😂 "I have a proble- no you don't"
I worked in a hotel and would do this to Karens 😊
"My thermostat isn't working"
"Huh, yeah I checked it an it's fine."
"But it's not blowing cool air"
"Yes it is ._."

Nancy's Gravestone;
"Here lies Nancy Drew, she was too curious for her own good."
Nancy Drews curiosity killed the cat.
this is probably canon
No matter how it happens, this is going to be 100% canon
Since you love Savannah Woodham, you would really enjoy "Ghost of Thorton Hall." She's featured a lot in that game, plus it's a very spooky game.
Yessss I'm glad you brought it up and she saw this! That is also such a good ghosty type game! Honestly probably in my top 10 ND games.
The fact that Evelien speaks and reads Japanese makes this playthrough that much more enjoyable.
I love how the plot point of him refusing to translate the newspaper clipping got completely negated. Mysterious Japanese text no one wants to translate? Not on this channel!
My favorite this is Gab pronouncing everyone’s names accurately. Makes me happy
Yay! I've been waiting for this. I love Nancy Drew games and the fact you add another layer of understanding with your knowledge of the culture is awesome.
Right? It helps me learn and respect the Japanese language/culture more.
whoever voiced Savannah - I want them to voice every character in every game lmao
She does come back in another ghost related Nancy Drew game actually!
Tina yep, Ghost of Thornton Hall. I think she voices a few other characters in different ND games.
@@RabbitsFunWorld Probably, I wouldn't be surprised.
She also voiced a character in that stupid clicker game Crush Crush / Hush Hush (this was how I recognized her voice lmao 😭)
Please play all the Nancy Drew Games. The Curse of Blackmoor Manor is another great one. Also the Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake. Actually all of them, I love them so much lol
bruh i havent seen these before, and i am so in for more lol
how is it so engaging, and yet relaxing at the same time XD (formatted the thought really poorly the first two posts */shrug/*)
I can’t believe I’m this excited another episode of a ten year old Nancy Drew video game but god damnit I am HERE for this! Keep it up Gab! 😻
🤣 Right? I was literally saying this to myself when explaining the game to someone else. I was like... Am I really saying this? Haha
Bless Thiss Mess Exactly! My bf came into the room and was like...whatcha watchin? Lol I hope she plays all the retro nancy drew games tbh, I’d watch them all!
I really enjoy this due to Nancy being in Japan and it's kinda like a horror game. ^^
I just finished replaying it last week and here I am watching someone else play it lol. This game is just so cool because of Japan and its actually pretty scary I love it
I kept thinking Nancy was saying "Take that puzzle! You're soft!" It took me a bit to realize she was saying "You're solved!" 🤣
Renograms and Nonograms (Picross) are seriously addictive
binging this whole series because I'm up with anxiety and can't sleep. the nostalgia and your play style is very calming!! :) awesome game, thank u for this!!

If you decide to play the haunting of castle Malloy please have Sean play with you! It’s very focused on Irish culture and legends
@James Santino respect her privacy! Literally no one cares
The bots are getting smarter. Replying to themselves
This would be so cool! He'd also be able to poke fun at the accents
I was just thinking that! Probably isn’t that accurate so I more wanna see Sean rip it to shreds for culture inaccuracy 😝
you got what you wished for lol

I keep imagining Savannah as Blanche from The Golden Girls xD Love this game so far!
Southern Belle Cajun Queen
Nancy not warning her friend Bess that some random dude is buying her an /outfit/ and going to ask her out (!!!) is super uncool.
These streams are so chill, I love it! Keep it up, Evelien
I have to say i just LOVE Rentaro's dialogues 🤣❤
it's not often I legit like all the characters in one of these kinds of games but man they are all so unique and interesting, and (most of) the voice acting is really good too!
I am really lovin this game also. I love that in this one Nancy is in Japan and it kinda has horror in this.
Man Nancy Drew is a straight up criminal in this one.
Jesus, Nancy is super nosey in this one. XD
Nancy: Tell me about why you stopped working with the paranormal.
Savannah: I'd rather not. It's too traumatizing to think about.
Nancy: But I like opening old wounds!
Savannah: No!

Same, I have so many nostalgic memories of swarming our old box computer with my sisters to solve nancy drew mysteries together
Found out Japanese classes are being offered where I live, feeling inspired by Evelyn's fluency, maybe I should sign up?

Seven months late, but does anyone else hear Sean screaming in the background at 42:41 to 42:46?
Typical😂
I never knew where Purikura came from. I just knew they were the photo booths that we'd mess with pictures on.
Watching in 2021 and Savannah's voice reminds me of Miss Minutes from Loki.

@@katherinewoods6112 Veronica Taylor was the OG VA for Ash, but Nancy Drew is voiced by Lani Minella
32:15 I’m standing up and when you said that, I immediately bent over to prove the game wrong😂
Another day, another Gab binge sesh.
Speaking of trying to open the wrong hotel room door...I was staying at an older hotel (they still used keys)..I went up to my room for the night and after I unlocked the door I realized I was in the wrong room. I'm not sure if all the rooms could be opened with the same key or what. I was so weirded out I couldn't sleep.
Ahhh that’s creepy!!! Lol
If you love nonograms and mysteries, you would really love Murder by Numbers for PC and the Switch! It would be really fun to watch you play that.
Watching you play this makes me want to play it again. I miss it
Gabs: Why is giving her the article game over???
Also Gabs: Has read the article and somehow spaced it's about the death of the girls' mother.
Gab: Can I use my dictionary on it?
Me: YOU are the dictionary 😂 I Love how you teach us about Japanese culture and such. You’re awesome, keep up the amazingness Gab 😁
Play the Haunting of Castle Malloy or Silent Spy with Sean! Irish and Scottish culture galore!
Silent Spy is my favorite Nancy Drew Game
Also, Gab, you can use the avatar program in Yumis computer, send them to your phone, and then set them as avatars for contacts. Just a fun little thing
I think Rentaro and Obaasan are working together to try to make Miwari leave and drag Yumi back
for serious tho, why is it so satisfying to watch sudoku and other puzzles together? like, that helped unwind my day all the way lol, ridiculous
a stream of gab just solving puzzles would actually be neat
Perfect video to sit back and relax while watching
This has been a real great story and how smart and intelligent you are thank you gab keep up the good work 🤗🙂👌👌
honestly i think the grandma is my fav character. She is serenely sassy
All this game is missing is a talking dog owned by an affable stoner.
I like how Miwako and Rentaro argue in English.
Lmao! Out of everyone in this game, Logan and Savannah are my favorite. 😍
18:52 - 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 BIG WEINER! THANKS FOR THE BALLS!! 🤣 I'm dying!
this game would've FORCED me to learn sudoku lmao i love that
"WE HAVE 1,280 PEOPLE SOLVING A SUDOKU"
We are the Borg.
I’m disappointed the big 20 namograma got cut out, I wanted to see it get solved, even in a speed up version😢
Bruh i just realized the story is based on that japanese folk tales that you read at the start, the one where the woman didn't fall into the person's manipulation
The game of my childhood... 🖤 #WeWantMoreNancy
58:36 My favorite part of the video I enjoyed it far too much
... meanwhile, Nancy does absolutely no grading whatsoever.
Does anyone know if renograms exist outside of the game? If so, where can I do them for fun??
Hearing a thick southern accent talk about japanese culture is so surreal XD
Ahh I was waiting for this
What is this where is Fortnite Warzone Fall Guys
Nancy is an utter Isa
God I'm know invented especially the robot cat (started with this one and kot the first one will be rewatching)
Rantaro might’ve lied to miwako but Nancy stole his key card
It says Savannah is from Georgia but she really sounds like she's from New Orleans, I love it.
I'm not sure whether I saw this stream or not but I'm gonna watch the video any because I love gab
This is awesome! Have you ever played The Longest Journey?? 😃
AHHH SO EXCITED. I’ve never been this early!
Same here, rare happy person.
omg please play phantom of venice i have yet to see a long stream of this game besides from arglefumph and its one of my favorites
Gab needs to make a sudoku puzzle tutorial I didn’t understand any of that
I'm just here for gab and I don't know what the fuck in going on in the game 😂😂😂
I honestly loooove Savnnah's VA.
I’m always looking forward to you posting Eveline 🥰 sorry if I’ve spelt your name wrong.
I am having a problem studying my lessons. I will start the exams next week, and I have not seen any lessons. Do you have any advice?
a) you shouldn't wait till a week before your exam to start studying and worrying about doing lessons
b) talk to your teacher, not the youtube comments section
Charlie Louise thank you
Something I noticed there is a lot of details in the body Language
It's not like Nancy knew what the article was, so to be fair, she didn't really do anything wrong when she made a "fatal error"
At first, I didn’t read the title. What did Nancy do in this game? 👀
I really don't lie the boyfriend, he gives me "I'm just such a nice guy" vibes....
Yo first.
It's mandatory now.
Wonder what Gabs secret is to being so chill. 😊 Meditation? Yoga?
The idea that if something or someone is forgotten is gone forever is hispanic culture.
kind of disappointed in the state of irl robot pets. they should be at least on the level of a roomba or something already.
no one likes private detectives, the whole point is that their nose is right up in your business.
The machine on the right actually is a bit more lucky
I’m so early! 25th like and 115 view 😂. Been waiting for this game
Cant get over the fact she thought the collar was for the girl... whyyyyy loo
I can’t get over how after she offers to help him get the collar so he can make amends with his girlfriend the. she treats him like a villain, saying his gesture was built on a lie, calling him stinky in the save file and in the phone convo saying that he made her buy the collar and posed as if he got it, like girl that was the entire point of you getting that collar, you offered to help him! 😂
wait do jack and gab live together?
great video
