Since this post, I have been playing A LOT of Marvel Rivals. I think it is my new addiction. As for some other games, I still have not made any progress on Pizza Tower. Thankfully, I did finish Mario and Luigi: Brothership. It is a good game. The next game that I am trying to start is ENA: Dream BBQ which is free on Steam. Before starting it, I want to watch all of the ENA videos on Youtube. Sadly, my busy schedule has not given me a lot of free time.

Since this post, I have finished my reread of Adventure of a Lifetime. As for Livestream 2, I am slowly making progress through it. My college classes keep making me busy with assignments. Fortunately, I did start another VN titled Sakura: The Jirai-kei Magical Girl. So far, it is decent. My biggest problem with it is that I only like 1 of the 3 main characters. The protagonist is fine as he will probably end up being another blank slate male protagonist. As for Sakura, she might have a good design, but I do not like her personality. She is a lazy shut-in who eats a lot and does not know what showers are. Did the writers think that the reader would be fine with a character like this because it is a girl with a nice design? I'll post a review of Adventure of a Lifetime here in the future. For now, I will say that it is just as good as I remembered it. Even though many of my thoughts on this VN did not change, I still enjoyed going through it again.

Hello. This place may not be as active as it used to be, but I hope that you enjoy your time here.

Since this post, I have finished 0 games. I was playing the Tomb Raider Remastered Trilogy before realizing that I am playing too many games at once. Also, I have been putting a lot of time into fighting games like Multiversus (before it shuts down) and Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising. With Pizza Tower, I have not gotten P rank in the last level in World 2 yet. As for Brothership, I am getting closer and closer to the end. Once I finish it, I will go back to the Spyro Reignited Trilogy and finally finish the third game.

Since this comment, I have FINALLY earned all of the achievements in Slay the Princess. As for Livestream 2, I am still failing to make any progress on it. Even though I think Slay the Princess is a really good VN, it is not one that I would say is a must read. It is not for people that are not a fan of going through a game many times in hopes of seeing something different. The game provides you with many options, but I can understand why this will not be excited for some. Personally, I was not bothered by it because of the voice actors and the visuals. Also, this VN did not scare me that much despite its visuals getting horrific at times. What kept me invested is the many paths this game has. I wanted to see all of the different forms that the princess could take. The next VN that I will start is Adventure of a Lifetime. Since I read through it already, this will be a reread. When I started reading VNs, this was my favorite for a couple of months before I read VNs like Saku Saku: Love Blooms with the Cherry Blossoms and World End Syndrome.

That's cool. I really need to get back to Persona 5 Royal someday.

Since this post, I have finished the following games: - Kaze and the Wild Masks. It is a fun platformer with time trials to encourage replayability. The techniques that I have seen online from one person are impressive. - Freedom Planet. I went through the game as 2 characters. I might go back to this and play through the main story as Milla. - Pizza Tower. It is SO MUCH FUN controlling this pizza man. Currently, I am trying to get a P rank in all of the levels. Right now, I have one more level in the 2nd area. After that, I will move on to the third one. I am still playing through Brothership. The game has its ups and downs, but I'm still enjoying most of my time with it. One of its downs happened recently where one of the choices that I made in this game made the last 20-30 minutes on an island pointless. Also, I just started Tomb Raider 1 in the Tomb Raider Remastered Trilogy. I plan on going back to the Spyro Reignited Trilogy after finishing it since I did not finish the third game.

Since this post, I have finished "Go! Go! Nippon!". Additionally, I am still reading Slay the Princess and trying to focus on Livestream 2. In the end, I would say that "Go! Go! Nippon!" is a decent VN. It was fun going through the different areas of Japan. One of my issues with it is that the romance could have been better. It is hard to believe that Makoto or Akira would fall for this guy in a week. Maybe being a VN protagonist with no eyes makes you more charming. Meanwhile, I am making good progress in Slay the Princess as I only have 35 achievements left to find. As for Livestream 2, I am having a hard time getting back to it since I am playing too many games at once.

Since this comment, I have continued playing Mario and Luigi: Brothership. The game is still enjoyable with its characters, story, and fun side quests. Currently, I am over 30 hours into it. Also, I finished Battle Chef Brigade and The Vagrant, two games that I started last year. Battle Chef Brigade's story could have used some work in its later half, but the game is hard to put down thanks to the Daily Cook-offs.

I'll make one more post in this thread for this year. I am still reading through Livestream 2 and Slay the Princess. Also, I finished Queen Beast and started Go! Go! Nippon! ~My First Trip to Japan~. Despite its short length, I felt that Queen Beast executed its story well for the most part. I just did not like the development of the romance between the two main characters. Also, some comedic parts to this VN's story makes it hard to take it as seriously as it wants me to. So far, "Go! Go! Nippon!" is decent but enjoyable. The characters and story are fine at best, but I do like seeing the different areas of Japan. Merry Christmas everyone. And have a Happy New Year. See you all in 2025.

I just started playing Mario and Luigi: Brothership. It feels so good to play a new game from this series.

From what I saw in a walkthrough on Youtube (it has been over a year since I read this VN), Makoto wanted to maintain the status quo. Kotori confessed to Makoto after he confessed his feelings to Iyo. As stated in my earlier comment, Kotori overheard Iyo's conversation with Makoto. The next day, Kotori was gone and did not return until near the end of the route. I'm not sure if that answers your question.

Okay. I'll put it in spoilers in case someone comes across this thread. I'll try to say as much as possible. It has been a while since I have read this VN.

Since that post, I finished Honey*Honey*Honey and Prison Princess: Trapped Allure. Now, I am slowly progressing through Slay the Princess and Livestream 2: Escape from Togaezuka Happy Place. Honey^3 is an entertaining VN that should have been longer. I did not think it made as much use of its premise as it could have. Also, the heroine routes are too short. It is a fun VN that I would recommend if you are looking for a VN whose main purpose is to entertain you. However, it could have been better. Prison Princess: Trapped Allure continues the story of the hero, Zena, and Aria. It is like the last game where you slowly make your way through it by solving puzzles and finding items that you can use to solve puzzles. Julietta, one of the new characters introduced, might be my new favorite character from this series. This game did not give much to the hero, Aria, or Zena. The hero is just a kind, bland protagonist who does nothing when he is called a pervert. Aria and Zena do not get much other than fun interactions with other characters. The other six characters that we have to save are VERY underutilized. After you save them, they do nothing until the final battle since they are tired. At most, they have 3 unique conversations in the Waiting Area. I will give this game credit for almost making me shed a tear while I was reading through one of its endings. If it were not for that, I would have said that this game is decent at best.

How about Ego's Spark? https://vndb.org/v37252
