VN of the Month December 2020 - Tsui no Sora Remake

Tsui no Sora Remake is more than just a remake and is VN of the Month. Other worthy competitors include Akatsuki Yureru Koi Akari and Hoshizora Tetsudou to Shiro no Tabi . Kara no Shoujo - The Last Episode is also supposed to be good for those who care about depressing games. 1.

VN of the Month October 2020 - Einstein Yori Ai o Komete

No masterpieces as usual. Einstein Yori Ai o Komete is better than others. 1. DraPri Guu-ta-life 竜姫ぐーたらいふ [201030] Whirlpool 1 2 The main character is a sprightly young NEET who lives in a dilapidated dojo.

VN of the Month September 2020 - Hakuchuumu no Aojashin

Hakuchuumu no Aojashin is the clear winner in September. 1.

VN of the Month August 2020 - Seishun Fragile

Seishun Fragile still takes the upper hand, yet for me it's the month without masterpieces. 1. Ano Hi no Tabibito, Fureau Mirai あの日の旅人、ふれあう未来 [200828] Pulltop 1 Yuuri arrives at Chichijima island, looking for his former girlfriend Tamaki, seeking closure to their withered relationship.

VN of the Year July 2020 - Root Film

Root Film is nowhere near masterpiece, but I'd still rate it higher than others this month. 1. Kanojo ga Aitsu de, Ore wa Dare!? 彼女がアイツで、俺はだれ!? [200731] Praline I (Kazuharu Shimozono) is an ordinary boy student with no special abilities. One day, I was called to the student council room by the school broadcast.

VN of the Year June 2020 - ATRI -My Dear Moments-

Surprisingly, all age Adabana Itan and ATRI -My Dear Moments- put traditional titles to shame this month. 1. Adabana Itan 徒花異譚 [200618] Liar-soft 1 2 A girl finds herself in a dark and unfamiliar forest when a monster appears out of nowhere and attacks. A mysterious boy, wielding a brush as if it were a sword, appears just in time to cut down the monster. He calls himself Kurofude, and he addresses the girl in a familiar tone as Shirohime.

VN of the Year May 2020 - Secret Agent ~Kishi Gakuen no Shinobi Naru Mono~

Secret Agent ~Kishi Gakuen no Shinobi Naru Mono~ is the only game deserving attention in May for me. 1.

The comedy about communal life begins here! Partial release 2. KukkoroDays くっころでいず [200514] iMel Inc. 1 The main character's mundane daily life is turne

VN of the Month April 2020 - Silverio Ragnarok

No-o-o. Micchi stopped updating blog and lots of releases ended up without translated description, as expected. With trilogy at its end, can finally nominate Silverio Ragnarok for this month and most probably for this year. Looks like another series reached conclusion, so can now call 9 -Nine- Yukiiro Yukihana Yukinoato a masterpiece. 1. Bokuhime Project ボク姫PROJECT [200423] Wizard Soft 1 Protagonist Minato Ikusa's sister Marika has fallen into a coma following an incident

VN of the Month March 2020 - Kami-sama no You na Kimi e

Kami-sama no You na Kimi e is the only worthy game in March. Micchi supports that and also Ore no Sugata ga Toumei ni , plus Icing -love coating- . 1. Kami-sama no You na Kimi e 神様のような君へ [200327] CUBE 1 2 Our time together, now, Continues onward, towards tomorrow. Shimae Kaito, a young man gifted with a talent for hacking.

VN of the Month February 2020 - Marco to Ginga Ryuu

Marco to Ginga Ryuu is the only bearable title this month. Micchi does not mind Full Kiss S , Oshi no Love Yori Koi no Love and Hajikano ~Kimi ga Iru Heya~ 1. Death End Re;Quest 2 デスエンドリクエスト 2 [200213] Compile Heart 1 2 After killing her abusive father and being decided that it was in self defense, Mai a young gloomy girl is sent to a women dormitory called “Wardsworth” in the city of Liz Shoala.

VN of the Month January 2020 - Kamisama no Shippo ~Etogami-sama tachi no Ongaeshi~

If I choose between indi touching crap, a lolicon moege, a twisted nukige , another mimikko moege and a single heroine nukige, what would entail the least cringe... there aren't good choices here, so I clench my teeth and call Kamisama no Shippo ~Etogami-sama tachi no Ongaeshi~ VN of the Month. What a wicked start of the year... Micchi does not mind this choice and also suggests Amairo Chocolata and a fandisc 1. Prison Princess プリズンプリンセス [200130] qureate 1 2 The continent

VN of the Year 2019 - Realive

2019 hit the new bottom in many aspects and marked the beginning of COVID era, so there was a noticeable loss in attention for visual novels by the end of it. I counted only 13 masterpieces, could not even get 100 openings in Visual Novel Openings 2019 . Without a clear favorite I'll call Realive VN of the Year . My list of masterpieces in 2019: AI: The Somnium Files Kanzume Shoujo no Shuumatsu Sekai Kimagure Temptation

VN of the Month December 2019 - Musicus!

Shin Sakura Taisen 新サクラ大戦 [191212] Sega 1 The stage is set in a steampunk version of 1940s Imperial Tokyo.

VN of the Month November 2019 - Shiraha Kirameku Koi Shirabe

An average chunige Shiraha Kirameku Koi Shirabe still wins over an average charage for me. Micchi likes all of Docchi no i ga Suki desu ka , ChuSingura46+1 Wacchi to Onii-chan no Raburabu Nagaya Seikatsu and some fandisc. 1.

VN of the Month October 2019 - Raillore no Ryakudatsusha

Gratz on hitting the new bottom with just three releases. Raillore no Ryakudatsusha is the only notable one. Micchi notes Ai Kiss and two releases with shifted dates. 1. Ai Kiss アイキス [191025] Giga The protagonist, Ikenaga Ren returns after several years away from his hometown, returns to enroll in the Private Arimori Academy, an art school. On the first day of school, he unexpectedly reunites with the two of his childhood friends with whom he used to paint illustrat

VN of the Month September 2019 - Kimagure Temptation

Kimagure Temptation is good enough to be VN of the Month , or it may easily be AI: The Somnium Files if you can stand investigation games. Micchi also gives a chance to Cross Concerto and Study § Steady 1. Cross Concerto クロスコンチェルト [190901] クロスコンチェルト Applique 1 It was spring, the season of new beginnings. Satoru finally broke free from the closed remote village where he had been held captive as an unwanted child, and entered the

Sora no Baroque 虚空のバロック [light]

I read Sora no Baroque blindly just because I could not believe light company would release something really terrible. Somehow, I had high hopes for it despite all the worrying signs. Not going to be a coherent review, just thoughts. Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwGwDxf37gEmJK5veUbZxoR5sjPFd2QCO I don't want to rate Sora no Baroque. The reason is that it's just not the genre I can rate like I can't rate nukige or loliconge. I don't want to have anythi

VN of the Month August 2019 - Wakaba-iro no Quartet

You know August... my conspiracy theory is that Micchi stopped doing monthly overviews just to skip doing August 2020. Jokes aside, anything that is not a doujin or a straight up nukige is automatically the winner in August. And that anything is Wakaba-iro no Quartet . Micchi adds Wanko no Yomeiri and another straight up lolicon nukige. 1. NinNinDays [190808 ] iMel Inc. 1 Known only as "Ninja", these mysterious mercenaries have worked i
