Yuuki has always attracted attention due to his superior looks and being the son of two entertainers. However, he has a quiet demeanour and did not feel comfortable in the spotlight, instead wishing for a more peaceful and ordinary life. But things don’t always go the way you want them to in life.

He met an angel by chance one night, who asked him if he wanted to become a god. Ignoring his perplexed response, she made him an ‘angel candidate’ and his life changed completely. First, the girl Touka became his imouto by using her powers to create a ‘miracle’. Moreover, two girls were sent to train him: the school’s prettiest girl and idol Mia, who was actually an angel; and, the solitary cool beauty genius girl Kazumi, who was actually a shinigami.

He was put through harsh training by the three girls, but could not become an angel, much less a god. Not only that but his osananajimi Erina, the only place of solace he could turn to, was awfully displeased with him since he’s been so close to other girls lately. Things really don’t go the way you want them to.

One year later, Yuuki still remained an angel-in-training. In fact, it’s like he hadn’t grown one bit. Would an angel without wings like him ever become a god? What kind of future awaits him?

Yeah thought so. I don't know why so many "pure love stories" have to end with all the other girls getting shafted or ignored. It gives me the impression the writer couldn't make all the routes fit together or wrote themselves into a corner.

Same here. One of the biggest factors for me if I like a girl or not is how their voice sounds. I'll often have my initial thoughts about a game (from just seeing pics and what not) blown away by how poor/good the voice actors did for their respective heroine.

For example, Nono in Niizuma Cation or Ushio in Mashimaro, both of their seiyuus did superb jobs voicing their respective heroines. Overall I'd say I'm more fond of seiyuu that are relatively new to eroge - sure they aren't all good but hearing a brand new voice is refreshing after hearing Tachibana Mao/etc for the 25th time this past year. Not that Tachibana Mao is bad or anything, but I've heard her a lot recently.

Why couldn't she have gotten a route instead of Suzu? If she wasn't cast as such a villain it could've worked, a confident and arrogant bitch route would've been a lot more fun than moeblob Suzu and her "i liek 2 watch u pray socca". Zzzzz.

That one anon a month ago said it best, a Risa route where MC "falls into depravity" with her would have been excellent, e.g. MC becomes her manager and starts blackmailing the competition, maybe culminating in a drug induced sex fest. The scene where MC meets Risa's yakuza aniki/dad could be hilarious.

I think it's only worth it if you have some unanswered questions about the world. Stuff like
What happened 10 years ago?
How did Chiaki exist in two places at the same time?
What's the deal with Sugoroku and Souichi?
What happens to Sakura's little brother?


It's a bit annoying how the game's storytelling mechanism is to have random infodump scenes between scenes of filler, but that's how it is. Since I can skip everything I've already read, it makes the pacing seem better than it actually is.

Are you deaf? I'm sorry but you could still read them. I'd be more worried about missing the voice actor part.

Some VNs are called 'sound novels' for the reason of playing so well the mixing of text, visuals AND audio. R07's being an example (talking about the music here, not the -great- voice actors from PS3 versions...). And you would miss a lot of there without music. Most VNs don't master it to that level and just use the music like BGM mood music; it wouldn't be a fatal miss.

Oni ga kuru ended up being a mixed bag.

Common: Quite nice for the most part, though the start is not too good if you ask me.
First two enforced routes: Enforced for no reason and shit, mostly because of the big sister. Just hold ctrl.
Final: Fine, though a weak climax where it kills its own mood and an (expected) crappy asspull ending.


The big sister was so weird. She's fine in common and true, for the most part, though she can be quite annoying. In the aforementioned two enforced routes however, it's just over. And it makes no sense, either. These routes just aren't compatible with the other stuff. Guess that clarifies how the two writers split their stuff...

I tried it for 10 minutes and dropped it afterwards. Felt like it was written by someone who hates women. It's one of those "women are at fault, I totally did nothing wrong. Everyone misunderstands me. So I rape and that is okay and totally justified" kind of things. Even though he is pretty much at fault, of course.

These kind of VNs exist here and there, I didn't exactly to get a relatively "mainstream" eroge release to be like that. Of course, it could also just be really terrible writing full of double standards, and I got it all wrong. ~10 minutes aren't much.

Sounds like typical revenge themed nukige MC's motive. At least after reading the summary on Getchu, I can get where MC get that motive from.
I'm fine with MC sometimes blackmailing, what I want to know is if I could control which girl that MC will blackmail, or better yet, focus all his blackmailing and anger to this one ex-lover childhood friend that cause him to be labeled as monster in the first place. From the OP it seems like she'll be the focus of the game, but I don't want to be ended up like when reading Otome Chibaku Yuugi title where I had to CTRL through about 80% of the content of MC blackmailing/raping other girls just so I can finally see he rapes the main childhood friend heroine that causes him to get suspended from the school, complete with her explaining the reason why she did that.

Can't help you there, though given how it's a different girl very early in the game already, I'd assume it's not going to focus on one girl a lot, but that's just a guess.

I have a question

So Noraneko is the first VN I've ever played, and I selected the first option here, but since then, I've never got any other choices to make but the theatre ones and Sachi/Patricia route selection.

The vast majority of VNs are like that nowadays. More choices makes for a less linear narrative which takes a ton more work than a plain linear narrative, so the majority of VNs you'll play will just not have many choices beyond picking which route you want.

To be fair, a lot of games with many choices still do not have a more branched narrative. They just have more choices.

the first few vns you read are very special because it's an entirely new unique medium and you will look back upon them nostalgically for years. this is the ideal time to play something like fate/stay night which while it has flaws a newcomer won't notice and instead be taken a back by the sheer scale and novelty of it all.

As long as one only reads the main-route, it's fine. There are very few comedy focused games that stay as strong as Noratoto does in its main-route.

There's no perfectly good entry VN anyway. I personally always think, an okay moe-game is probably the best, because you won't enjoy those for long. Noratoto as such feels to me more like a waste to read first. For all the flaws it has, you'll be pretty happy to find something on its level later on, if you like your comedy centric stuff.

While I heard some good things about Lovely Cation 2, it ended up being pretty underwhelming. The loli route of Purely Cation was just better than this loli route here. Though from what I tried of Hime's route, it didn't seem much better either.

This has all the typical Cation issues, but doesn't even get the romance right. The first part is mostly written as if the protag is a teacher or father of the girl or something, with a distant view from above, speculating what kind of mental issues she has. Also lot's of series typical stalking. Once that's (randomly) over, the romance gets fast forwarded which ends in a random unplanned confession that leads to kissing and sex within 2 minutes. Seriously, didn't this want to be a dating sim? Shouldn't these things be at least somewhat of a climax? While this kind of thing isn't that weird in eroge, in a dating sim this really shouldn't happen.
Afterwards you mostly have 15 line long scenes without substance. Nice. Actually pretty funny how a dating sim the whole idea of dating isn't given a shit about.

Also, holy crap is the gameplay bad. They really threw out some garbage between this and Lovely Cation. This doesn't have the gameplay a dating sim should have (you know, trying to give the right answers, perhaps going to the right places with the girl on a date), while instead it's all just random stuff you either have to be lucky about or savescum. For example, girl eats something and you can talk to her about that the next day if you had that as well. But there's no chance to actually have that after you know about this. So you either reload your save, or will never see this. A few other things are also just random as fuck.

Finally a bit a personal thing. Hinata's voice didn't work for me at all. It reminded me too much of the actor's other roles, especially Hapymaher's Maya. And that girl is the direct opposite of Hinata. Funny enough, that one scene where Hinata was drunk and did a 180° it worked wonderfully.



I've read worse, but I don't see the appeal, unless you are currently REALLY sick of way too long and boring common routes.

I liked the heroines themselves, but yeah Cation games' dating sim parts are so lackluster and tiny they wouldn't suffer at all if the supposed "gameplay" was thrown out altogether. You may miss some optional scenes with CG that require very specific items and there's shorter parts where the heroine might briefly mention some item in another scene, but there's nothing major that requires actual effort or planning on part of the player or a real threat of a fail state unless you ignore the heroines you're pursuing and neglect the bare minimum obvious hobby stats.

The heroines were fine, with their typical cation issues. The world feeling empty, because of no side character having a sprite, meaning you generally only see one person. Due to the heavy lack of other characters, the heroine personalities are also very one dimensional. Characters are always defined by their surroundings, so with that barely to not at all existing... they suffer on the long run.
It's okay for a dating sim. Unfortunately, I have trouble calling this a dating sim. Weird game.

Well, I finished Axanael. Read the true ending last. Favourite sex scene was mizuha+sei even though I've never fapped to penised girl stuff before but I was disappointed that 0 CGs showed her breast. I mean, it's a bit of a petty remark, but why have a girl with really big breasts if you're not gonna reveal them in the sex scene?

It was a nice, comfy VN. The true ending revealed that sugoroku is souichi and can't die, and that jaburu is the one on the phone which were the only things I wasn't sure about by the time I read this last ending.

Then you seem to enjoy a mystery where the game outright spoils everything when it begins, on top of shitty cat kicking villains where the protag loves to ride on their cheap provoking attempts.

Honestly, the way the game starts its chapters is actually so awful by design, I really can't understand how anyone thinks that's okay. Literally showing who murders someone at the beginning of a murder mystery? Imagine Danganronpa spoiling the murderer the moment a murder happens.

Regarding those Phoenix Wright like eroge were there is one case/crime per chapter, it's always going to be hard to create a challenging mystery because of the small amount of possible suspects by chapter. I mean, you can just guess the murderer by a simple process of elimination without even having all the information, lol.

Phoenix Wright had way more budget than a simple eroge (not too mention being unvoiced) so it was way easier to have a wide arrange of characters by case. I think the best bet for a challenging murder mystery eroge is following just a main case/mystery like the Innocent Grey ones.

And regarding Hoshi no Farnese, the heroine and characters interactions are pretty good. I do recomend it in a sort of gimmicky moege, just like a post above said. Though I did like how the killer on Orihime's route was an helpfull witness from the earlier chapters. Even part of her backstory/motive was explained outside of the chapter were the murder occurred. Good stuff, actually.

The Ouchi Marshmallow character poll wasn't very fair now that I'm actually reading the game.

I'm sure Ushio would have gotten #1 anyway but the other four slots would be more contested for sure. And people were joking about the loli side character beating main heroines, but she got more lines in the early game than either Sasa or Rairai did by a fair margin.

Golden Hour was alright, I mostly played it myself for the H art, both the odd PoV and the realistic lighting made it stand out imo.

However, the writers make you feel like shit every time you pick a side girl's route, and they really hammer this in for the earlier routes (Ruri gets it the worst). I personally wasn't very fond of the main heroine Yuki, and honestly I preferred some of the side heroines over her, particularly the aforementioned Ruri route and the one-off side chara Risa had tons of untapped potential. Also I really disliked how the game played out in various ways, especially how Ruri's route (minus her H) is basically integrated into the common route - it felt like she was added as a heroine later on.

All in all it wasn't very enjoyable apart from the art. If all you want is plot and don't care about any of the heroines you can easily do Natsumi + Yuki's route and call it a day.

>But poll #2 was about the complete game and Sasa and Raiha still performed quite badly.

Most opinions were set at that point already though. These two also really suffer from a bunch of other things in the game. Sasa for example seems VERY different than she actually is. The initial impression you get from her is just that she always apologizes and is shy as fuck. And given how she barely matters in common, you essentially have to hope there's more when it comes to her route. And there is. Unfortunately, every route is 70% ero, so she can never really recover.

So yeah, the reason the poll is as it is is still not character related, but game related. Sasa and Raiha were shafted. Hard. Unless you flatout dislike any of the other three characters, those two probably won't win your vote. So the question was always just Ushio or Kanon. And given how shit Kanon was...

While it isn't good by any means it is a rather rare breed of a game of which there isn't much alternatives to pick from. I hope Noratotos popularity ends up spawning some similar but better executed games.

I'm pretty sure that literally every person who have read the noraneko would agree with this. But well at least nobuchina route is getting good comments, I'm still seeing this sequel as a "definitely better than not having a nobu route forever" thing, so its still okayish for me.

It's pretty much dependent on whether you like the heroines or not, true for moege but especially Cation games. If you've played other later games in the series you should roughly know what to expect.

Like has been already said a tiny common route so the game shifts focus to your girl of choice pretty much from the start, plot is light and there's no contrived drawn out drama, good art, the dating sim elements like stats and map movement are somewhat underutilized and the game is actually a lot more like normal VN despite those, and once the dating starts there's quite a number of H-scenes, which might drive some people off.

It's a fucking dating moege romance shit game with no story whatsoever lad. None of those are "good" but they can become tolerable if you're beta enough to fall in love with one of the heroines.

Does anyone have any recommendations for more realistic lolige? Where you abuse a position of power and trust to force the little girl into it, she doesn't enjoy it at all but is unable to resist, you go to great lengths to try and make sure no one else finds out, and the game ends with you getting arrested and sentenced to jail for life and her suffering permanent emotional trauma.

Why some engine in VN doesn't have function to crop window game size? Or 1280x720, or fullscreen. Otherwise die, you stupid laptop with 1366x768... AAAGH~
