Well, now that you know how to access the game, we need to create an account in order to actually start playing!
Remember that the game Girlfriend Kari is created by Ameba, a company that's most widely known in Japan for its blogging services. They're also known for making small games - mostly all community outreach elements. Thus, in order to start playing Girlfriend Kari, you'll need to make an Ameba account! By creating this account, any progress you make on Ameba games (such as Girlfriend Kari) will be saved onto your account. Thus, whenever you log into your account, you'll be able to continue from where you left off! This isn't like Love Live School Idol Festival or Puzzle and Dragons where you are limited to only one device per account, so you can play from any device as long as you log in!
The overall account creation process is pretty simple and straightforward. The easiest way to create an account is through the Girlfriend Kari game site! You can also create an account directly from the Girlfriend Kari app - the registration process should be pretty similar. You can also create an Ameba account straight from Ameba's website.
The first part of this page will show you how to register for an account, while the second part will show you how to log back in.
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.
We'll cover both methods below.
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.
The following steps will guide you through creating a new Ameba account from the browser version. Please make sure that you're using Google Chrome as your browser while doing the following steps, preferably on a computer. As a quick reminder, Girlfriend Kari is only compatible with the Google Chrome browser. Other browsers may cause you to redirect to a different website rather than allowing you into the game itself.
- Go to the game website for Girlfriend Kari (http://vcard.ameba.jp).
- Assuming that you don't already have an account or are not already logged in, you should see a website layout similar to the image below.
- (insert image here)
- Click on the white button that says "Ameba新規登録(無料)." This button means "Create a new Ameba Account (for free)."
- You should be directed to a new webpage that looks like the image below. The text box is prompting you to enter your email address. Put your email address in the box, and press the white button below to proceed. The button means "Send confirmation email." Make sure that the email address you use is one you actually use, and not one just for spam!
- (insert image here)
- After pressing the button, Ameba will send you an email to confirm your email address. Go to your email, and click on the link inside of the message that Ameba sent you.
- The email should be from "Ameba (アメーバ)" and the subject should be something similar to アメーバID登録のご案内 (meaning "Confirm your Ameba ID.")
- You will then be directed to another page where Ameba will prompt you with a lot of information details about your Ameba profile. The image below shows you the rough translation of the prompts in English, thanks to Google Translate.

- In short, you want to enter your:
- Ameba ID (This will be your login ID. This will also be the name of your Ameba Blog). Make sure that your ID has not been taken by someone else yet!
- Your password. It MUST be alphanumeric and be between 6 to 12 characters.
- Your gender. This should be self-explanatory.
- Your date of birth (in the order of Year, Month, and Date).
- Once you've filled everything in, click the white button at the bottom to complete your registration.
