  1. This list is entirely devoted to VNs that serve to provide healing, light catharsis, laughs, and warm fuzzy feelings. Understand, most of the games on this list will be moege, charage, or nakige, with almost no exceptions. Some of these, I would not rate highly by my own tastes, but in the eyes of someone seeking this quality, would be awesome. I WILL NOT provide a translated list, as the last time I played a translated VN was more than three years ago, and thus others would be a better judge of what to include in the translated portion of it (hint, hint, Kaguya, Steve, and other Fuwa vets). A great story is generally not a requirement for this type of game, which is why I didn't always give them as high a rating as they would deserve from fans of the genre. Heavy drama (outside of the 'it is definitely going to end happily' type that you get in nakige) is not acceptable. I am going to be very picky for this list, as games that leave you with a bad aftertaste or leave you wondering why you bothered waste people's time, lol. (Hoshimemo would be borderline out of bounds, if you want a clear marker of what not to include. This kind of game has to be almost devoid of violence and meant to heal or soothe) Untranslated: Haruka ni Aogi, Uruwashi no (seriously, this game is my universal recommendation from this type) Moshimo Ashita ga Harenaraba Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru ~Futari no Elder~ (rare example of sequel far surpassing the original in every aspect) Toppara Zashiki Warashi no Hanashi Sukimazakura to Uso no Machi (yes, this starts out kind of sadly, but its generally light nature and characters definitely make it soothing) Koisuru Natsu no Last Resort (as I said in my comments on this game, it is like a much weaker imitation of Uruwashi no) Clover Days (another recent addition, perfect example of a light charage with no serious drama that isn't solved relatively quickly) Chiisana Kanojo no Serenade (pure moe, stops just short of moeblob, totally light, no really serious drama) Kaminoyu (no human heroines... but this game is enormously soothing and decently funny) Shiro no Pikapika Ohoshi-sama (this was the game that came to mind when I thought of making this list) LoveKami Sakura Bitmap Strawberry Nauts Tenshin Ranman - Lucky or Unlucky!? Natsuiro Recipe AI Love: Koisuru Otome wa Kikai-jikake YES I am being very picky about this list. Not every nakige is soothing/healing for the reader, and not every moege is capable of providing easy laughs and adorable cuteness. The basic reasoning behind all of these choices is: emotional release from sympathy/empathy with the characters and an overall sense of relief of pent-up non-violent stress for the reader. I could have put up to three times this many games up here if I'd been less picky... but then I would have been wasting the readers' time. Have fun, yall.

  10. I heaved a heavy sigh as I left the meeting room of the Commission. I had my orders, crisp and clear. Continue with the invasion of Sweden. "Sweden...... huh......." As I took a seat in the carriage, staring out, I lost myself in a sea of thought. Sweden brought back memories of the Hollow Wars..... which technically didn't happen. I wonder if this really was a good idea. Sweden's latest attacks have not only left me with less land, but quite a few of my skilled generals have been killed on the battlefield. May their poor souls rest in peace. The carriage came to an abrupt stop, shaking me out of my idle daydreams. I seem to have arrived back at my palace. The war room was my next destination, for my generals awaited me there. "Sire! What is this! You said we would be led to victory! Instead, we are losing land and precious resources!" I expected as much, they were angry. Though we've lost, it seems their morale is still at an all-time high. Rage has made them reckless and angry. "Your highness, I suggest we form a truce with Sweden. In fact, I have already sent a letter inviting them over for a discussion over a treaty." It pained me to keep secrets, yet they must not know of The Commission...... Wait what! "Y...You invited them over!" I slammed my fist on the table, and this obviously startled my generals. "Who authorised this! I will have him hanged!" I snarled at them. I looked them into the eye, yet every one of them had their heads hung low, presumably with shame. All but one that is. "Lenin, might you have something to do with this?" He got up, standing tall and straight, exuding confidence. "In fact...." Was all he could say, before a bullet penetrated his skull. I had already pulled the trigger on the gun I was holding. W..What Have I done. I looked around the room, and they all were staring on in horror. I... was blinded by anger, I have wronged. However, I still needed to save my face, so I had to make of this opportunity, no matter how much it had to pain me. "Any more traitors will face a death worse than his. In fact, he wouldn't even have the mercy of death." I hid my pain under an evil grin. "We will continue our conquest of Sweden, and we will see this through to the end." "May God forgive us." With these words, I left the room, leaving for my quarters. I called for my aide once more, "James!" "Send another letter to the Swedish, telling them the previous invitation was a trap, and that they may come at their own peril." All for the glory of The Commision. I hope you're happy Aneki of France. May God forgive us indeed. The Russian Empire continues with the invasion of Sweden. "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul?" -Matthew 16:26

  13. It is now 5:30 in the morning. The marathon is finally over. I'm tired but it was well worth it. I won't say this often but Ano Natsu de Matteru is nearly perfect. If not for the slightly rushed ending and also the ending that leaves things to your imagination then this would have been perfect. It was a great romance story. Best one I have seen in an anime in a long time. But damn, the twists in that ending sure took me for a ride. I won't spoil anything but there are still a lot of questions surrounding Lemon. Now I just hope to find something to surpass this one.
