Introduction The strangely dressed girl knocks on Rikido Hiroki窶冱 doorstep as she smiles at him innocently. "I'm a private nurse, and I am going to cure you!" Hiroki has always suffered from a disease which weakens him. He does no more than go to school and come home, accompanied by his childhood friend Ayano, who loves to dote over him. He lives alone, quietly suffering and enduring his disease. But all of this changes with the arrival of Maria, who is a 窶弃rivate Nurse窶 hired by Hiroki's mother. Nurse Maria forces her way into Hiroki's sheltered existence, promising to cure him for good. Hiroki tries to make Maria leave because he doesn't want to lose his carefree life. However, no matter how hard he tries, she just won't leave. Hiroki decides to give her a one-week trial period. If his condition improves within a week, he'll let her stay with him for the whole month. Unsure of what to make of this beautiful new intruder, Ayano watches with conflicting emotions from the side-lines. Maria happily accepts his offer. Ayano silently watches Hiroki with mixed feelings. This is the beginning of a new lifestyle. II. Production Information History: The original game was released by Angel Smile in Japan in 2001. The game was successful and was translated into English and subsequently released by G-Collections in 2002. The game was also released in Russian by Macho Studio and Triada. A PS2 port was released by DATAM Polystar in 2003 featuring additional content. I personally hope to see the characters again someday... in a new setup :) Releases: Japanese 15-06-2001: Private Nurse- First Press Edition (PC) 15-06-2001: Private Nurse- Regular Edition (PC) 25-09-2003: Private Nurse-Maria- (PS2) 26-12-2008: Private Nurse - Download Edition English 20-11-2002: Private Nurse - Package Edition (PC) 04-10-2005: Private Nurse - Download Edition (PC) Russian 2004: Ljubovnye procedury (PC) 2005: Private Nurse: Ljubovnye procedury (PC) III. Staff Character Design: Konsu-Konsuke Scenario: JUN Artist/Graphic Supervisor: Konsu-Konsuke Sound Production: V.Hearts Composer: ARI and Twofive Staff: RMG Rainbow-Motion-Graphics (Opening and demo movie) Director: JUN and Konsu-Konsuke Produced By: AngelSmile IV. Cast Rikido Hiroki: Hiroki has been sick all through his life. Nobody knows the exact reason for his strange sickness, though it seems to be as psychological as it is physical. His life starts to change when Maria visits him and promises to cure him in 30 days. He is childhood friends with Ayano. Maria (Voiced by Emi Honi (Emi Motoi)): A legendary "Private Nurse," reputed to be the best in the world, above and beyond any practitioner in hospitals. She is always smiling, and has an uncanny ability to be kind and gentle while always getting her way. She loves her work, but there is always time for a little TV! Miyamori Ayano (Voiced by Satomi Koorogi): Hiroki's childhood friend. They have lived next to each other forever and she is the only one who understands him. She's an intelligent, athletic girl who treats Hiroki as a person, not a sick boy. However, she is extremely tomboyish and has no patience. Maria's arrival unsettles Ayano and makes her re-examine her feelings. Sasho Mio/ Aso Miharu (Voiced by Mioko Fujiwara): The nurse at Hiroki's school. He has gotten to know her because he spends a lot of time there due to his illness. She is always cold to everyone, and seems to do nothing but sleep while she's at work. It seems the only way to crack her shell is to offer her something sweet to eat! Yoshino and Yuno: Ladies of the Miyamori family. Yoshino is the Mother and Yuko is the daughter. Both to see Ayano and Hiroki together. Yuno is like her mother in her attitude. Perapera and Itome: 窶弋win Giant Private Nurses窶? who act as replacement for Maria when she is away. Perapera has a habit of talking very fast while Itome seems to be sleeping all the time. They are over 180 cm. tall. Juliet (Voiced by Sayaka Aoki): Another 窶弃rivate Nurse窶? and the only colleague and friend of Maria. Rikido Hiromi: Hiroki窶冱 mother. She is a long-distance truck driver and thus, is away from home most of the time. Nishinomori: Hiroki窶冱 Childhood friend who went to the same junior high as him. His family runs a Japanese cuisine restaurant where Hiroki often eats. He is bright and cheerful. Aoki Nao: Ayano窶冱 best friend and member of the Basketball team. V. Paths and Walkthrough There are a total of 4 endings in the game, good endings for Maria, Ayano and Mio and one neutral ending. Once you view all endings, you unlock a special scene at the end of Maria's route and Maria窶冱 face appears on the title screen. Completing Maria窶冱 and Ayano窶冱 paths unlocks their 窶廣fter Diaries窶 which have several short stories and give more information on the story and on Maria. During the 30-day period, Ayano will play Jan-Ken-Pon (Rock-Paper-Scissors) with you three times. The outcome slightly impacts additional elements of Maria窶冱 and Ayano's story. I will detail more on this in their respective routes below. Ayano draws randomly, but it seems that the chances of her drawing rock first are high. I would also suggest you save before each game. The story is set in a span of 30 days with 15-20 choices in each of the routes. Also, while you can save at any point, the game loads from the beginning of the day. Detailed walkthrough as follows: Maria: Make sure you LOSE the rock-paper-scissors games. Though you can still reach her endings even if you win. 1st day I will tell her thanks, it's the right thing to do. I窶ｦ don't think it's bad Day 3 I won't go, no matter what Day 4 I want to stay here longer and see the sunset. Day 5 I think I'm alright today窶ｦ RPS # 1: I Lost Day 8 I should go home by myself窶ｦ Day 9 Yeah! I feel just as great as today's weather!! RPS # 2: I Won A miracle might happen窶ｦ Honestly tell her about your sickness. Day 10 I'll go home because I promised Maria Day 12 RPS # 3: I Won I'll relax in the park. Day 13 I have to give Nishinomori back his CD!! Day 14 I won't go to school today. Day 15 ..... Day 17 I'm afraid, but I tell her the truth Day 20 I can't just wait for her like this any longer! You also get the following additional choices. Selecting one set of choices leads to the special ending of Maria. The other choices lead to a normal ending only, but they unlock additional CG窶冱. So, it窶冱 a good idea to use the save function, you can load from the actual save point now Save 1 (For Maria窶冱 Normal Ending) Yes窶ｦof course!/ Yes窶ｦnot only tonight, but every night : Yes窶ｦnot only tonight, but every night Of Course it will!/ I hope it does, too. : Of Course it will! 窶ｦYou don't need to know./ Because you like me, right? : Because you like me, right? I do not look at the past. Only the future matters to me!/ 窶ｦ I am here today because of where I was yesterday. : I do not look at the past. Only the future matters to me! ........../I put my hands on her hips窶ｦ : I put my hands on her hips窶ｦ Load Save 1 (For Maria Special Ending) Yes窶ｦof course!/ Yes窶ｦnot only tonight, but every night : Yes窶ｦof course!

Ayano Make sure you WIN the rock-paper-scissors games. 1st day I will tell her thanks, it's the right thing to do. I don't feel too good窶ｦ I feel sick Day 3 I won't go, no matter what Day 4 I'm getting hungry. Shall we go home and have dinner? Day 5 I think I'm alright today窶ｦ RPS # 1: I Won Day 8 I should ask her to take me home because I'm tired. Day 9 Yeah! I feel just as great as today's weather!! RPS # 2: I Won Tell her briefly about your sickness窶ｦ Day 10 I'll go home because I promised Maria Day 12 RPS # 3: I lost I'll go to town and look in some shops. Day 13 I have to give Nishinomori back his CD!! Day 14 I won't go to school today. Day 15 Alright窶ｦ Mio Make sure that you win as many times as you can. Also, the ending of Mio seems to be the last priority. If you choose a choice biased towards Maria or Ayano the game will go to that route. So don't make a mistake in the choices you select. (Especially 9th day, 15th day, 17th day) 1st day I'm not going to say it, no matter what! I don't feel too good窶ｦ I feel sick Day 3 Go to the Nurse's office窶ｦ Day 4 I want to stay here longer and see the sunset. Day 5 I feel bad窶ｦ Yeah, I do feel bad!

Day 12 I'll relax in the park. Day 13 I have to give Nishinomori back his CD!! Day 14 I'll go to school. I should be studying. Day 15 Alright窶ｦ Day 17 I'm afraid, but I tell her the truth Neutral Ending 1st day I will tell her thanks, it's the right thing to do. I don't feel too good窶ｦ I feel sick Day 3 Go to the Nurse's office窶ｦ Day 4 I'm getting hungry. Shall we go home and have dinner? Day 5 I feel bad窶ｦ Yeah, I do feel bad!
