This is an unofficial translation patch for EBKore+ Amagami (エビコレ+ アマガミ), a dating sim released for the PS2 and PSP.
This patch will translate the game from Japanese to English. This translation includes all the dialogue, GUI elements, tooltips, help screens and dialog boxes that are in the game. The patch implements changes to the internal code and GUI that will differ from the original Japanese version of the game for aesthetic and localization reasons. This patch does nothing to modify the game or gameplay in any significant way i.e. changing the default text speed.
Due to technical reasons, the translation was split into three patches:
- Ai and Haruka
- Rihoko and Sae
- Tsukasa and Kaoru
If you wish to play the Ai and Haruka scenario, please use the corresponding xdelta patch. To play the Rihoko and Sae scenario, you will need to apply the respective patch to the original Japanese version of the game. Remember to always use the original game version each time you apply a new patch.

FAQ
Q: Help! I can't patch the game and the log says "An error has occurred: xdelta3: target window checksum mismatch: XD3_INVALID_ INPUT". What's wrong?
This error means that the .ISO fi le used for the application of the patch does not match the .ISO the team used to make the patch. There are two reasons why this may occur.
- The .ISO fi le is missing empty space that was originally on the disk. This could have been done by the DVD/UMD ripper or yourself. The team has reasons from a technical standpoint on why the space is needed so please do not do this. Rerip the .ISO without doing it and everything should be fine.
- Something went wrong with the ripping process and the .ISO fi le is flawed. In this case, steps should be taken to retry ripping the .ISO from the game to get a clean copy.
Q: What is different from the EbiKore+ version of the game from the original version of the game?
There is a Mahjong minigame you can play, new poses for each character that were not in the original game, some Kimikiss content, and bugfixes for rare crashes that may happen with the game. The fixes specifically have been ported over to the original version of the game.
Q: I heard that there are special routes in the PSP version of the game, like routes for side characters. Is that true?
No. This is not true whatsoever. The PS2 and PSP EbiKore+ versions are identical save for differences that exist from an aesthetic point of view from porting the game across hardware platforms. That means that there are no special exclusive routes in the PSP version of the game. However, the "routes" mentioned above exist in form of omake scenarios, some of which were bundled with Tech Gian, a magazine that the developers of the game, Enterbrain, Inc., own. Those scenarios are all called Amagami Chotto Omake Gekijō, and there have been six of these fandisks in total. Unfortunately, the team will not be translating any of these fandisk scenarios. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused in not being clearer sooner about this.
Q: Where can I find a torrent for this game/where can I get this game for free?
The team will not support any kind of piracy for the game. You can buy the game legally via websites/services that specialize in selling Japanese merchandise overseas. If you pirate the game, you have no support from the team regarding help on the application of the patch and there is no assurance on any kind of damage that may happen from that. If you ask for or post links for the game on the team's IRC or blog, it's an automatic lifelong ban. Please support the game and the people who contributed to its creation.

Known Issues
- The translation has been split into three with age being the determining factor for which heroine gets in any patch. This limitation only aff ects conversations in the game, you can still get translated events for every single heroine. The cause seems to be some sort of engine limitation with certain files and their storage sizes.
- Mahjong and Omake modes in EbiKore+ PSP have been disabled pending issues and space savings that were used to solve the saving and freezing issues. May or may not be reenabled at a later date. Root issue is related to the above issue.
- There may be locations that may be untranslated in the game that the translation team did not catch.
