 == Account Registration ==
 There are two primary methods to create an Ameba account. One way is to create a separate, unique AmebaID that you'll use for your accounts (i.e. create an actual Ameba account), and the other way is to log in with a different social media account (like Google+, Yahoo, Twitter, etc.) and link your Ameba account to that other social media account. I would personally recommend creating an AmebaID rather than using a previous social media account - this way you have more control of your account, and don't have to go through a third party service every time you want to play the game.

 === Ameba Account Creation ===
 This is probably the safest way to create an account to use for Girlfriend Kari, so you don't have to worry about the "middleman" (having to go through a third party service just to log into Ameba to play Girlfriend Kari). It's not difficult to make an account this way, so I'd recommend doing this.
