So why are there no true neutral characters in VNs?

>> No.1354360

Because Zapp Brannigan is on the VN approval committee. And he hates those damn dirty neutrals.

>> No.1354363

Because they make terrible stories.
Batman is Lawful Good.

a neutral character would have "eh, okay" as every option

A question we must ask ourselves....why would we play a VN with a true neutral protagonist?

I never really liked the choking.

It occurs the first time the Kouhei is bullied, and is the first time Aeka really shows her yandere side.

As for the Nekoko route, I personally found it kind of 'meh' up until the finale of the game. From about when you learn who she truly is onwards is where becomes awesome.

I liked it through and through, but we clearly have different tastes.
The very finale is one of the extremely few things I have ever cried to, though.

Fair enough. Different strokes, different folks. What was your opinion on Muzukis route then? I thought it 'blargh' the whole way through. The only exception would be the almost sickenly sweet bit at the end.

I felt mostly the same, but admittedly I have never actually finished Mizuki's route (and in fact I regularly even FORGET HER NAME). I have no sympathy for her.

Hah! I don't know if that was intentional or not, but such a statement ties in perfectly with YMK. Kouhei is, in his own words, someone who is defined by those around him. He goes from being pretty much a non-entity to an outgoing young man as he interacts with his chosen female.

That part was pretty much the whole reason I decided to give the game a go. I read a review that made special mention of the rooftop choking, though 'Awesome!', and rushed off to download.
