VN of the Month 2013

VN of the Month August 2013 - Innocent Bullet -The False World-

There aren't masterpieces this month for me. But if I still had to choose, I'd probably point at Innocent Bullet -The False World- . Clephas decided not to choose anything. Zen picks Aozora Stripe and fandiscs while Micchi adds Hoshi no Ne Sanctuary and PriministAr to already tremendous wishlist.   1. Senjin Otome ~WOTAKU ni Yadorishi Kokoro ni Negau wa...~ 戦刃乙女 ～WOTAKUに宿りし心に願うは…～ [130808] Debo no Su Seisakusho Nanahana-senpai has a breakfast as

VN of the Month August 2012 - Tokyo Babel

Tokyo Babel is VN of the Month while I also acknowledge Rose Guns Days as a masterpiece. Micchi is interested in Sakura, Sakimashita, some fandisc and some imoutoge   1. Corpse Party -The Anthology- Sachiko no Ren'ai Yuugi♥Hysteric Birthday 2U コープスパーティー -THE ANTHOLOGY- サチコの恋愛遊戯♥Hysteric Birthday 2U [120802] MAGES. GAME 1 2  Sachiko Shinozaki, tragically murdered at age 7; such a sweet girl, taken away at such a young and tender age!

VN of the Month August 2011 - Diamic Days

Few normal titles get released during summer Comiket. Seriously, there's just one ordinary format game Diamic Days that I don't accept as a masterpiece, and it wins by default as VN of the Month... Micchi supports this idea and tries to focus on doujins to fill the blanks.   1. Seijaku ni Chain-saw 静寂に電気鋸 [110813] Chainsou ――The view I'd grown so used to seeing through the lens had been smashed to pieces―― Shinado

VN of the Month August 2010 - Indigo

Fewer normal titles see the light due to Comiket rivalry this month. As a result, I can only call a doujin game Indigo masterpiece and winner by default. Probably I should review it one day for popularization purposes. Micchi has to choose among the published works, so lays hopes on Suzukaze no Melt.   1. Framing Summer フレーミングサマー [100813] Wavestar Kou joins the camera circle since he wants to take pictures of shooting stars. He meet

VN of the Month August 2009 - Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai!

Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai! is VN of the Month. Guess I'll need to review and evaluate doujin Abyss -Homicide Club- . As many as two doujin games during this August Comiket managed to crawl into the list. Micchi does not really see anything worthwhile, but he starts to add some synopsis starting from this month.   1. Abyss -Homicide Club- ABYSS -殺人クラブ- [090815] Festival 1  Sasayama Akira was born into a family of assassins and trained as

VN of the Month August 2008 - Koisuru Otome ~Shikigami 2008~

Another August, and another record of over 140 visual novels. Amatsukaze contains serious gameplay elements, so I don't include it in the race. I'll name Koisuru Otome ~Shikigami 2008~ VN of the Month, but will have yet to decide whether it's a masterpiece. 1. Back Stage BackStage -バックステージ- [080808] TJR Mitsuaki wants to be an actor. One day, he joins a theatrical group called "Back Set". The boss of the group is Kyouka, a stage director, and she is a lit

VN of the Month August 2007 - Ninkyou Hana Otome

Don't think I can call any game a masterpiece this month. I'd choose Ninkyou Hana Otome as VN of the month. I'll review TV no Kieta Hi. 1. Seinarukana -The Spirit of Eternity Sword 2- 聖なるかな -The Spirit of Eternity Sword2- [070803] Xuse 1 2 3 4 5 6 A journey across infinite worlds. The Time Tree. Countless branches extending through space, each a world of its own. In one such world, a boy holds within him the soul of an ancient god yearning to break free.

VN of the Month August 2006 - Eve ~New Generation~

Eve ~New Generation~ is VN of the Month. I'm reviewing it. Katahane makes a second masterpiece. 1. Boku no Miko wa Chiisana Koibito ~Chouai~ ぼくの巫女は小さな恋妹～寵愛～ [060804] Haoh Hikaru is living in a dormitory being apart from his family. He doesn't visit his house because he had an affair with his brother's wife, Kiriko and he doesn't want to meet his brother. One day, his brother and Kiriko had an accident and passed away...

VN of the Month August 2005 - Saihate no Ima

Summer Comiket month still produces less than 100 VNs per month, but that does not make it easier. Saihate no Ima is the VN of the Month. Narcissu is another masterpiece. I'm reviewing both the winner and Tsuyokiss just to follow the trends of charage. 1. Narcissu [050802] Stage-nana 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 The anonymous protagonist is diagnosed with a terminal illness shortly after his twentieth birthday, and is admitted to a hospital in Mito, Ibaraki.

VN of the Month August 2004 - Sorauta

Sorauta is the only masterpiece of this Comiket month. Whenever I've no strong preference, I just choose something looking fine and without a review. This month I'm going to review Koijibashi . 1. Hayarigami: Keishichou Kaii Jiken File 流行り神 警視庁怪異事件ファイル [040805] Nippon Ichi 1 2 From chain mails that leads to murder, mysterious suicides and missing children, you, as a police officer have to put all your brain cells to work, connect the events together to discover the truth.

VN of the Month August 2003 - Natsuyume Yawa

It's the month of summer Comiket, so let's try to make it through piles of Doujins together. I consider Natsuyume Yawa the masterpiece and winner by default. I'm reviewing Salem no Majo-tachi , but I've yet to develop my opinion on it.  1. Boku to Kanojo to Kokoro no Kakera 僕と彼女とココロの欠片 [030808] Milky Kiss Father gets an urgent work appointment leaving main character in charge of his imouto and niece. He has a lover, but something misses in his hea

VN of the Month August 2002 - Ever17 -The Out of Infinity-

Ever17 -The Out of Infinity- is undoubtedly the game of the month. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni makes the second masterpiece. But the world does not need yet another review of either of it, so I'll review Bokura ga Koko ni Iru Fushigi. which I also consider a masterpiece. 1. Beast 21 ~Ryoujoku no Yakata~ BEAST21 ～凌辱の館～ [020802] Birdy Soft 10 years ago the hero suddenly became plagued by strange nightmares.  He remember something about a strange woman in an o

VN of the Month August 2001 - Kimi ga Nozomu Eien

Kimi ga Nozomu Eien , Ashita no Yukinojou and Kagetsu Tooya are masterpieces of the month with Kimi ga Nozomu Eien being the clear winner. But I'm reviewing the lesser known Bittersweet Fools 1. Cast! -Private Heroine- CAST！-プライベートヒロイン- [010802] Bell-Da 1 Takumi Ogata enters Wakasagi-Gakuin, a school majoring in entertainment, to pursue his career as a writer.

VN of the Month August 2000 - Tsukihime

There are four masterpieces this month - Tsukihime , Sense Off ~A Sacred Story in the Wind~ , Pure Mail , Gin'iro . Production-wise the most thrilling game is Sense Off, but I opt out for a chuuni whenever possible, so the winner is Tsukihime. I played it in the past, so won't be replaying now. But I still need something for a full rakeview this month. And this month is unusual as I'll be reviewing not game of the month, but some other game Ragnapolice which also turned out to be a masterpiece.

VN of the Month August 1999 - Tsui no Sora

There's not much to talk about this month. Tsui no Sora and L no Kisetsu: A piece of memories are the masterpieces of August 1999. My heart is totally with Tsui no Sora. 1. Baito e Ikou! バイトへ行こう！ [990805] Bags 1 You as main character, gets a winter vacation that you will not forget. Living somewhere on the world, with your parents on vacation, a period of around 2 weeks of solitude is given to you. During this time you will be able to roam around yo

VN of the Month August 1998 - Shiokaze no Memory

There aren't masterpieces this month, but my personal favorite is Shiokaze no Memory, it's short, nice and has a distinctive individuality. 1. Homura no Matsuri 火焔祭 [980801] Sorciere Freelance writer Kengo Sakuraba visits a lonesome hot spring town. The four sisters who manage the inn welcome him warmly. However, there is something strange in this town. What exactly is hidden there? Another game resembling Kizuato of

VN of the Month August 1996 - Be-Yond ~Kurodaishou ni Mirareteru~

VN of the Month August 1995 - Isaku

Isaku and Ryouki no Ori are masterpieces of the month, but the winner is Isaku since it's more traditional visual novel. 1. Gakkou de Atta Kowai Hanashi 学校であった怖い話 [950804] Pandora Box 1 2   Sakagami Shuuichi, a member of the school newspaper, is asked to gather information about the school's seven mysteries.

VN of the Month August 1994 - Shinsetsu Ooedo Tantei Kamiya Ukyou

There aren't masterpieces this month, but I can't let an average bakage to be the winner, so I nominate Shinsetsu Ooedo Tantei Kamiya Ukyou as VN of August 1994. 1. Mujintou Monogatari 無人島物語 [940805] KSS Inc. 1 Mujintō Monogatari is a self-described "survival life simulation".

VN of the Month August 1993 - Houma Hunter Lime Dai 03 Wa

A very weak month. But if choosing among ero-centered games, a mahjong game and an animated little masterpiece, I'd choose the last one. Houma Hunter Lime Dai 03 Wa is VN of August 1993. 1. Houma Hunter Lime Dai 03 Wa 宝魔ハンターライム 第０３話 [930806] Silence1 In this episode a fit of jealousy on Lime's side sends Bass to the hospital.

But to get admission he needs to get permission from five school student council officials. Oh just another charage. Wait.
