Are there any really good visual novels targeted at the female gender? No I'm actually
a guy that loves VN's for boys so this is for my sis, btw she's old so don't get any
funny ideas, but I do remember her asking me for a VN a while back, also she has no idea
I actually read these things (And I've read a few).

Anyway if someone (or maybe from the females audience) has any ideas on a few good title then please post.

Would be good if they have:
----------------------------

* Must have an English translation as she can't read Japanese
* Free short stories (similar to those from al|together would be nice but not necessary)
* All ages (unless it's really integrated into the story like LEAVEs was from al|together 2008, yeah I know...)


Thanks for any help...

You could play it safe and recommend Tsukihime. That's pretty okay as a first VN.
Other than that, I dunno. Clannad?

Most VNs are fine for either gender. There's no need to look for one that's 'girls only', especially if you don't want porn.

No, but Saya no Uta is something you really shouldn't recommend to somebody who's new to VNs.

In that case >>1911026 has pretty good idea. But Tsukihime is usually a safe bet.

Does she have a ds? If she plays from a walkthrough she'll be able to avoid playing any H scenes in public, and it makes it more convenient for a non-NEET to read.

The shortest VN I can think of besides Saya is Planetarian.
And that is definitely not a VN for girls.

What? Why would she ask you then?

Also, just do the insani stuff. Some of them are crap, but some of them are really good, although at the same time maybe a bit too odd for a beginner. They're short though, try Ballad of an Evening Butterfly.

Because I wasn't reading them (into them) at the time. You could say her words inspired me to check them out, and that's when I realized they are targeted differently for each gender.

Not really important, but she might not. I didn't bawww at Narcissu, and I baww at everything.

Hopefully she has some kind of flashcart as well as a ds? VNDS has Tsukihime, Narcissu and True Remembrance.

I didn't like Resonance, it had no closure.

Yo-Jin-Bo isn't one of those DVD games, it's a regular game. Works on PC or Mac.

Oh, and since you said she has a DS, she might like Princess Debut... It's kinda shallow though, but has cute guys I guess.
