"Other"
So this is a thing. People called âge localizations an impossibility, but Degica did it. They're gonna be kickstarting it which you can probably blame on Sekai Project's successes in doing just that, but I have no doubts it'll meet its goal. In fact, I'll certainly be pledging towards it, since while I do overall think Muv-Luv is more popular than it needs to be it's still a damn good story overall. The formal announcement isn't ...

What happens when a visual novel with a great story gives you a bonus extra ending as a reward for 100% completion? Well... Boobs will not lose! Boobs are justice! Boobs will save the Earth! BOOBS. ARE. THE. GREATEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEST!! What value is there in ...

I have some good news, and bad news, so I'll start off by getting the bad news out of the way. The bad news is that after much thought I'm not doing those other articles even as a weekly thing. I don't have the drive to do them anymore. They were fun for a while as an experiment, but I ran out of ideas pretty quickly. However, I'll still be branching out to new fields. This brings me to the good news. There have been something I wanted to do for a while now, but it ...
I feel like doing a few writeups of particular aspects of visual novels, and how and where they were done well or not-so-well. There's a lot of subtle things that go into a visual novel experience, and I appreciate the attention to detail on some accounts. This is one of those little things that can truly make a big difference. In many ways a good title screen theme is important. It's the single theme you keep coming back to - the one you hear every time you open up the game - and ...

Figured I might as well make this little list for anyone interested in taking advantage of the current Summer Sale to grab a couple of games. planetarian ~the reverie of a little planet~ is 50% off, putting it at € 4,99. Being made by the same company who also made CLANNAD and Little Busters!, naturally, I can only recommend it. It's only three hours long and thus definitely one of the best 'short' (<5h) visual novels I've ever read. Especially if you like Key, or you're interested ...
Even if you haven't read AIR, this is just wonderful.
Well... I've never felt this in the dark about how a visual novel might turn out. At first glance Cross†Channel takes place in a typical highschool setting. Immediatly the protagonist, Taichi Kurosu, turns out to be one of the most annoying characters I've seen in a while because he spends every scene sexually harassing one of the girls. No, seriously, I can't think of a single scene involving a female character where ...
About time I posted this. Between university, Higurashi and Cross Channel I forgot about it for some time, but the bookclub still has me coming back to it every so often. So Air is AIR's final arc. The arc's name is actually also capitalized, but to make a distiction I'll take the liberty to change that. They really couldn't have picked a more confusing name, could they?

Gotta say, I enjoyed Virtue's Last Reward quite a bit more than 999. Right up until "END or BEGINNING", everything was pretty amazing. This post contains spoilers for the entirety of the Zero Escape series (999 and Virtue's Last Reward). If you have not read it, beware. (SPOILER) The Zero Escape series seems to have this strange habit of having its ultimate reveals be extremely similar to (SPOILER)Ever17. I mean obviously, given their relationship, but still it was ...
Chapter 1 (Onikakushi) of Higurashi is available on Steam now. I'll probably take the opportunity to start a reread.
