Master of QB Excellent: Early Designs

-11/01 Update: The HJ guys properly gave us Gretel's profile (if you were wondering, yep we were just missing 2 adjectives, "harsh" and "intuitive"), confirmed her release for January-February... and tells us they're working on the Witch & Kaguya for March 2014, and that we might see another new char soon, hooray!


So this week our proofreader had to cram and stuff, and left to my own devices, I thought, why not throw a bit of a curve ball? (that somehow fits the Halloween theme too)

If you're familiar with the Master of QB Excellent, you'll know it has pages discussing the character's current designs and all that (that maybe we'll see here in more detail one of these days)... but it also has a few special pages with drafts of many of the girls before they settled on the design we know and love, and that's precisely what I translated for you this time.

Enjoy!

  1. Some of those alternative hair styles and clothes are HNNNG I really like Tomoe and that Shizuka pinned hair and the kimono-like clothes.

  2. >Melona at one time had a combo Male/Female sign on her back
    ...F.S., why are you so awesome?
    Melona I see thought was always set up to be something of a slime creature thought, so I do love that...I wonder if Menace would have been more popular thought if she was just wearing bandages over her instead of the outfit she's got today? ;3

    Still thanks for that~! Wouldn't mind seeing the small clip notes ever translated, including for melona, thought I have an idea what most of them say already...:P

    1. Well, about that, the clip notes are really tiny and there's no way I can make out the kanjis, the only ones I understand are the ones in katakana... that everyone can figure out too. :p

      Oh, and quick reminder, BlogSpot resizes like crazy, so I recommend getting the pics from the wikia page I linked, they're at like double the size there.

  3. I was holding my breath going through each one in anticipation of Cattleya's but.... was she just not included in this? :/

    1. Not in the Early Designs, she wasn't, too bad, guess her artist had a clear vision of what they wanted...
