Well there on the official site for the game, I even saw alan kissing collin in the trailer on the site too O_o

Maybe they'll turn Collin into a girl? I really can't see them allowing boy-boy kissing, even for Harvest Sprites. =/

It's interesting though.

Yeah! If you look on youtube for the marriage between the main female character and Harvest God, I think Collin kisses Daren to show the Harvest God what a kiss is... I don't like it...

Nah, in Collin request event, he has fallen in love with Chloe and want you to help him
so if there's even any gender between sprites, then he's likely a guy

That screens, im sure the 2nd one is from the game opening
and the 1st one, likely Goddess wedding ceremony

But really, Collin acts like the clown of the sprites, so one-two kiss seems okay to me, as part of his joke or trick :p
beside, they're just harvest sprites
If Natsume or people really taking it seriously, then, somehow it's just too silly for me

I meant, Natsume might try to make him a girl when they 'localize' the game. But yeah, I can see it as Collin being silly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalatounge.gif)

Then they must also change his request event
or else it'll be Girl X Girl now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalatounge.gif)

but I totally doubt that they'll edit such a 3seconds worth kissing scenes

[Horcrux]

I thinks its funny. :D
Collin-- what a dude.

[Marley]

Hey, Collin's a sexy fairy, we all know it to be true. Though... Daren didn't seem to like it afterward.
Besides, Collin's always been the joker. I think it's well within his character to volunteer to do the kissing. He's just being silly.

I wish they wouldn't change it. D< I don't wanna see Corrine the Harvest Sprite. It's just... off. Besides, if the Sprites didn't have male names, I'd assume they were genderless.
Of course, if they're going to change the sprites' genders so that everything's absolutely heterosexual, they'd switch up Daren. His name is Dana in Japanese, after all, and call me crazy, but I always thought that was mostly a girl's name. From the looks of it, though they'd probably have to throw in Allie, too.

The better option would be for everyone to just get over themselves. I can see crazy-protective parents going, "OH MY GOD THOSE TWO FAIRIES KISSED THIS GAME SHOULD BE RATED M FOR MATURE VERY VERY MATURE BWAAAAAGH!" Well... maybe that's an exaggeration. But they'd probably get complaints.
So I think they should leave it. :3 I think they're used to complaints by now. Not that they handle them well... eh, on the one hand, I'd like to see the barrage of complaints happen, but on the other, I don't know if Natsume can handle it.

Also, knowing Natsume, if they tried to remove the Collin/Daren kissing scene in the God's and Goddess's weddings, they'd probably botch the thing and make them unmarriable. Or it would end up doing something weird, like killing off your buckwheat crops when the snowstorm blows west-north-west and your wife's got an itch up her nose. :/

They address theirselves with boku and oira in japanese version, which indicating they're a male, except they're a bokukko, heh
But it will be the universal 'I' in english version, and I doubt the parents will bother to know what's their gender when they see them kiss each other

People should just take it easy and stop being so paranoid over everything in games, from simple name changes to 3 seconds scenes

[Nurse Fin]

I'm sure Bugs Bunny has kissed Elmer Fudd more than once (along with cross-dressing), and kids watch Looney Tunes all the time. I don't see why this is such a big deal :P

[Crystal Talian]

It's only a big deal nowadays, and mostly only when editing foreign materials.

Looney Tunes had guns, bombs, various hitting, cross-dressing, kissing, and such. But any anime or video games brought over from Japan and targeted at younger audiences will generally have those taken out. It apparently pollutes young minds and makes them attempt to whack someone over the head with a giant log like they saw on TV . . .

But hopefully Natsume will leave this as is or do something that doesn't horribly mutilate the game.

cause it wasnt what they planned and innocent and not their intention
they were so brave, a drink in hand.
and collin has very kissable lips coated with cherry smuckers chapstick.

Haa! It's funny, I don't think Natsume will cut it off, but you never know.
