Additional Comments
To avoid game crash at launch, replace the game executable with either of those:
1)Japanese demo executable (taken from the demo here: http://engbishoujo.tripod.com/bsdownload.html )
2)Russian translation executable (taken from Russian translation pack here: http://www.zoneofgames.ru/gamebase/game/746/file/959/ )
3)Any other modified executable, from your local translation, for instance (it seems that whatever the 3rd party translators did to the EXE, it resolved some memory access faults)
NOTE: the executable contains most of the menu text, items' descriptions and certain dialogue options. Therefore, they will be translated accordingly
NOTE2: if the in-game fonts seem distorted, place some tahoma/verdana/sans-serif -like fonts into Wine's "windows\fonts" directory
Game speedup hint

To speedup the game graphics you need to run it in fullscreen mode. But in most cases it will not work well. So it is possible to:
- set rule in winecfg for brave_s.exe to emulate desktop with 640x480 size
- start the game with
$ wine explorer /desktop=0,640x480 "C:\Program Files\Brave Soul\brave_s.exe"
