I just finished Kara No Shoujo, and really liked it. Was just wondering if anyone knew of VN that were like it.

-Kara No Shoujo General-

>> No.8074687

Plot: Kara no Shōjo's story revolves around Reiji Tokisaka, a private investigator who is investigating a series of grotesque murders on the request of his former colleague, Kyozo Uozumi of the Tokyo metropolitan police force. The murders are reminiscent of another string of serial murders that occurred six years ago prior to the game where Reiji lost his fiancée which drives him with a strong desire to solve this case. Reiji is also asked by Toko Kuchiki to find her real self, Reiji is initially unsure of what she means but later finds out that Toko is actually an adopted child. While working on the murder cases, Reiji also takes some time out to get to know Toko and to also try and find out where she has been when she was young and who her real parents are.

I haven't actually played it but from what I've seen and heard. There is a lot of gore in the game but most of it is actually located in the text rather than the cgi.

>Cartagra's initial translation has been complete, future is unknown

it is 100% translated, but the project received a C&D, and the thing is sitting in limbo with the people who dutifully follow the law and won't release the translated scripts or beta patches.

Hope the MG + inoGrey thing that is currently under wraps includes both cartagra and KnS2. Sure, it's a long shot, and thinking it will happen before 2014 may be a bit too optimistic, but there's nothing wrong with hoping.

>>8075106
Caucasus is completely unrelated to the other inoGrey works from what I remember hearing about it.

>> No.8075194

Some parts of KnS were brilliant, and the true ends were all really good, but it was kind of a slog getting there, and the pacing of the murders and the motivations behind them were, in the first half at least, really weak. I wish the game had just focused on the final plotline rather than barring the way to it with the lackluster first mystery and a lot of bad ends involving sex with girls we have no reason to care about.

Regardless, Toko has the sexiest voice ever.

Caucasus is a massive pain in the arse to translate and clear with its script structure and interface. It's also significantly weaker than KnS in my opinion, though that's up to the individual playing it. The only really KnS like brainstorming twisty section was right before the true ending, nowhere else. The cast is also lot smaller due to how they are isolated, and I thought they aren't as compelling as KnS heroines (like seriously, I reckoned game could almost pass up as a nukige with how you just meet heroine X few times and then next time you fuck her.) That said, the climax is great (with g-senjou like epilogue), and art is even better, one of the prettiest eroge made in my opinion, but I don't think it's good candidate to translate.
