Introduction
Welcome, fellow Fuwamembers, to the FuwaRecognition thread. Starting this March, we’ll be highlighting some of the best contributions made by our members each month. From snazzy blog articles to delicious forum threads, and perhaps even a few things more on the shitpost part of the spectrum, we'll keep an eye out for the cream of the crop. And then we'll gather them here. Just for you.

Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and because we have the updates from Mangagamer in regard of Raillore and Luckydog I decided to make a parody of a famous novel from 1872, A Dog of Flanders, by changed 'Flanders' into 'Raillore' so we have 'A Dog of Raillore' as the title. This week we have Mangagamer's update along with some fan translation project and also some new title announcements, although to me the main interest is only in the updates, so this week is ended up to be a bit plain one.

Long Vacation (1996) is breathtaking .

This drama depicts the turbulent period spanning from the reign of King Taejo (born Lee Seong Gye), the founder of the Joseon dynasty, to King Sejong.
Partially translated.
Overall Rating: 6/1
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and for the title I'll tell it at PS later. For this week, we have Shiravune do some move, although it's not really quite interesting yet. We also have Idea Factory released Senjou no Waltz along with Sekai announced Nekopara 5 exact release date. Overall, I feel this week is below average, and let's see what I can write in regard of it.
First of all, we have Watamasu QA work is now 41% done. Sekai also finally announced the exact release date for Nekopara

Capturing The Action
When visual novels wants to enhance the drama and impact of a particular narrative beat or intimate character moment they turn to Event CGs. These large and intricate graphics depict these key moments with a vivid detail which the character portraits are no capable of replicating. Each one has such a profound effect on the player due to the infrequency of their us

Inbaku Gakuen ~Houkago ni Saku Chijoku no Hana~ is an erotic visual novel developed by Mega Romance. Unlike most erotic visual novels that have their hentai adaptations released at a later time, Inbaku Gakuen already had its hentai adaptation released on June 25, 2002, which was prior to the release date of the visual novel at September 29, 2006. It’s not often that I come across a visual novel that got released after its hentai adaptation, which really caught my i
For this week title, because we have Irotoridori no Hikari released and I did make the parody of the first part of Narnia when Irotoridori no Sekai was released, I decided to make a parody of the second part of Narnia, Prince Caspian, by changing it into 'Princess Asumi' with Asumi is the main heroine of the new little sister VN (Countryside Siblings). Anyway, we have Irotoridori no Hikari translation patch as the most notable news for this week, and another notable news is we have Mojika releas
Mojika is an extremely unique visual novel. Because of that this is now the most torn I've been about a rating I've given a visual novel to date. It's definitely a game where I feel there will not be many people in the middle ground for this one - you'll probably either love it or hate it. It's presentation is absolutely amazing. The writing itself is decent. The story tries to do too much and includes a bit of everything when it probably shouldn't.
First off - the presentation. Holy hell i
Welcome to this week VNTS Review. For the title, because we have Nekonyan released Koichoco, I decided to make the parody of its English title (Love, Election, and Chocolate) by changing 'Election' into 'Invasion' from Rance 03 event (Helman invasion to Leazas) and 'Chocolate' into 'Marshmallow' with it being Mashiro's (Tayutama main heroine) favorite food, so we have 'Love, Invasion, and Marshmallow' as the title. For this week, the three releases alone (Koichoco, Rance 03, and Tayutama) make i
tldr;; I'd recommend this to most visual novel readers looking for a bit of a different take on the moege format, with more comedy and very light to no drama upfront slowly transitioning into more drama and very little to no comedy at the end. Overall it's a very good but flawed read that may not be for everyone. Read on for details.
Love, Elections, & Chocolate (Koichoco) does a lot right, but it also does some things wrong. It has some likeable characters, good music, nice production

Pixel Hunting
Creating a sense of immersion within a fictional world has always been one of the greatest strengths of visual novels so it is only natural they would end up paired with a style of gameplay about interacting with the details of that world in the form of Adventure Games. These are titles which involve clicking on elements of the environment in order to solve puzzles or me

In a world parallel to our own resides the city of Kamitsubaki.
One day, the player, an "Observer," is summoned to this ill-fated world.
I rate both Kono yo no Hate (1994) and Kimi to Ita Natsu (1994) as small masterpieces, but the former definitely has more impact and plot development.

Karenai Sekai to Owaru Hana is a nakige with some positives but it also struggles a bit with a story that is very one-note to its detriment. Past that it's pretty standard fare. To me it's another visual novel where the positives and negatives cancel out to where it's just fine.
Characters are interesting enough. There's a perverted onee-san type, a cheeky kouhai type, a kind and caring type, and a cutesy imouto type. They all fit their stereotypes fairly well, although there isn't much tim
Welcome to this week VNTS Review, and for the title I'll tell about it in PS later. For this week, well honestly speaking it's quite a plain one which to say is quite understandable if we consider it as the breather one. We also have Shiravune released the nukige, and once again we have a number of updates from fan translation. With that done, let's see what I can write in regard of this week as well.
For Kamitsubaki City Regenerate, I do a bit of research of Kamitsubaki and find out they'r
Ima Sugu Onii-chan ni Imouto da tte Iitai! (ImaImo https://vndb.org/v7766) is a surprisingly good all-ages moege, and one I'd recommend to most moege readers as long as they're okay with no H-scenes being present and can be okay with the somewhat stupid premise the VN itself has regarding crossdressing. I'll only be talking about things in general to avoid spoilers.
Getting the easy stuff out of the way: systems are standard and I had zero issues getting this working on my Windows 11 comput
Kunado Chronicles is a more story focused Purple Software game compared to their others. It's still horny - this is Purple Software after all - but focuses a significant bit more on the plot. This is part of what made it close to my favorite visual novel from them.
The story is interesting, especially if you're into superpowered action type stories (chuunige), and moves at a decent speed and I felt there were no major issues present. It's your standard "MC wakes up with amnesia, has superp
Welcome to this week VNTS Review. For the title, because we have the news from three GL VNs (Qianse, Hayasaki no Kuroyuri, and Clover Reset), I decided to combine all three into 'Red Clover's Tale' with it being the parody of English title of Hayasaki no Kuroyuri, Black Lily's Tale. As for where the word 'red' from, it's from Qiansi with it literally mean red-colored (Or Akaneiro in Japanese). As for this week, obviously this week is a breather after the last week with the fan translation bring

Where do you go with a story after all the lose ends of the original have been tied up in a nice neat knot? This is the dilemma which nirvanA Initiative faced and the solution it chose was to split its play time between two new protagonists. Indeed the i
Kubiwan’s Ending
As Hideo and Inertia were invading a town, they are again faced with the mysterious White Knight who was sabotaging their plans. Since Hideo noticed that the White Knight was quite powerful, almost at the same level as Inertia, he then proposed to the White Knight to help him kill Inertia together. When Hideo created an opening for the White Knight’s sword to pierce through Inertia's chest, he then started to attack the White Knight, believing that he would end up get
Aoi Tori is a frustrating read. It's a solid visual novel with an interesting plot containing a plot device that allows it to essentially be as horny as it wants to be. So it's essentially a Purple Software special. However, unlike a few of their other visual novels it proceeds to simultaneously live up to its premise and be a let down. In my opinion, where Hapymaher succeeded on nearly all fronts, and Amatsutsumi succeeded on most, Aoi Tori frustratingly succeeded on only half. However this sti
After all, only Kou Kou Kyoushi (1993) really stood out for me, but lots of nice yet not outstanding titles as well.
