Synopsis

Finding this game difficult to read? Wondering what is going on when certain lines make no sense? Curious to know if there is a good story in this visual novel? Annoyed by the double question marks at the end of nearly every line in one part? If you've answered yes to any of these questions, read on.

Les Fleursword has very good artwork, a nice promo video and theme song, yet it suffers from a poor English translation. This guide provides the download links with instructions to install an English fan retranslation patch to address this major shortcoming.

English subtitles (Steam version)

The JSON files to amend the English subtitles are now available at the following download location(s).

Site 1: JSON files containing English subtitles at Dropbox (25 May 2021)

https://www.dropbox.com/s/qric18cmmv66jlc/data.zip?dl=0

Site 2: JSON files containing English subtitles at Sinical Network (25 May 2021)

https://sinicalnetwork.wixsite.com/home/Projects/when-sword-sinks-into-flowers

Unpack and copy the files to the game's data folder.

For the Steam version, it is in:

\Steam\steamapps\common\Les Fleursword\www\data

English subtitles (Japanese version)

My Steam group also has a fan translation patch to convert the subtitles in the Japanese version to English, including When Sword Sinks Into Flowers in Steam.

Site 1: JSON files containing English subtitles at Dropbox (31 May 2021)

https://www.dropbox.com/s/skt9ha9ynrx6u6t/data.zip?dl=0

Site 2: JSON files containing English subtitles at Sinical Network (31 May 2021)

https://sinicalnetwork.wixsite.com/home/Projects/when-sword-sinks-into-flowers

Unpack and copy the files to the game's data folder.

For Japanese versions of the game, it is in:

or

I would like to thank my friends, the various game reviews, and discussion forum posts for encouraging me to study this game in further detail and to write the retranslation patch files. Hope they will be useful. Feel free to send me friend invite anytime if you require additional help with the game or to discuss more about this game. I would also like to take this opportunity to introduce my group Visual novel, JRPG, Anime as a Steam group for visual novel and anime fans. Looking forward to know more visual novel and anime fans anytime. ^_^
