Dear My Friend [light]

Foreword: This is going to a slightly unusual review, because I'm going to totally ignore main three heroines and focus solely on two side heroines because of Masada scenario writing and uniqueness of these two heroines compared to conventional ones.

Gin no Hebi Kuro no Tsuki 銀の蛇 黒の月 [Project-μ]

VN of the Month October 2003 - Lovers ~Koi ni Ochitara...

Most of the candidates already got an English review, so I'm choosing the one with the most swordplay Ochiba no Mau Koro . I guess Lovers ~Koi ni Ochitara... is the only game worthy of masterpiece status this month. 1. Chocolate Days ちょこれ～とDays [031003] Xuse The protagonist is Mogami Takuya, your basic cliche average high school student, whose mother is passed away and father is away on business. There are five very cliche women in his life: an older friend from childhood w
