VNDB Main Menu 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 interest. There’s also a manga adaptation for Inbaku Gakuen, but I couldn’t find the date on when it was made. However, the premise for the manga is pretty much the same as the hentai so I’ll just assume the manga was also created before the visual novel. The story features a delinquent student named Keisuke Shimizu who is the son of a rich and powerful man (not specified) which allowed him to get accepted at a decent school. Keisuke, serving as the main protagonist, has a very cynical behavior and a chauvinistic belief that women are just mere sex tools to satisfy men’s desires. This was due to him experiencing some hard times back at his home. The story also features two key female characters who are Remi Izumi and Orie Yuuki. Remi Izumi works as a music teacher and she has strong masochistic tendencies on wanting to be treated as a sex slave by Keisuke. Orie Yuuki on the other hand is one of Keisuke’s classmates. She is a serious student and a member of the disciplinary committee, urging Keisuke to be more serious in taking lessons at school. She’s also willing to change Keisuke’s chauvinistic beliefs by teaching him about true love which ultimately led her to have sex with him at some point prior to the beginning of the visual novel. If you watched the hentai or read the manga, then you pretty much get the main gist of the plot. Wandering Mode The story of this visual novel in comparison to the hentai and manga was a huge let down. Unlike the manga and hentai which had more variety in their story, the visual novel solely focused on sexual content. In this case, it focuses on either Keisuke or Remi (depending on the choices you make) subjecting Orie on various sexual acts which overtime degrades her sanity. After watching the hentai adaptation of Inbaku Gakuen, I was honestly expecting the visual novel to go more in-depth about these key characters such as their past lives and why they became the kind of people they are, but that really isn’t the case. Most of the dialogue throughout the visual novel (especially during the H-scenes), primarily focused on erotic content just like a typical Nukige. I was so bored out of my mind that I ended up skipping most of them. As for the technical features, they were pretty standard. There’s nothing much for me to complain about except for the fact that there is no quick save feature. The artwork for the CGs and character sprites seemed pretty average as well. However, I was impressed by the artwork for the background images, having quite a lot of detail to them. The music was also pretty spot on. I did enjoy the glitchy tone of the music for the main menu. Given that this visual novel was made after its hentai adaption got released and probably its manga adaptation too, I honestly believed that it would further expand the story derived from these two sources. However, the only thing that got expanded was the sexual content. This visual novel didn’t feature any form of drama or a compelling plot. There was also no character development either. It just talks about a chauvinistic highschool boy and a perverted masochistic teacher violating an innocent highschool girl for their own desires. The premise just feels so basic and not that interesting. Plus, it just feels like you’d have to watch the hentai or read the manga in order to get a better grasp on the visual novel’s story. I really couldn’t bring myself to finish this game and I ended up dropping it later on. I never thought I would come across another visual novel that isn’t as good as its hentai/manga adaptation. I’m starting to take back what I said about visual novels always being superior over its animated/manga alternative. It just goes to show you that the world isn’t black and white.

I'm looking forward to read the remake of Tsui no Sora when I have the time. Thank you so much for commenting!

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 getting slayed when Inertia gets killed. To his surprise, Hideo found out that the identity of the mysterious White Knight is actually Kubiwan. Inertia, who then had her wounds completely healed ordered Hideo to finish her off but he couldn't bring himself to do it. As Inertia laughed at him, she revealed the truth between him and his sister Lilfina. Back then, Inertia casted a charming spell to Lilfina, causing her to get very sexually aroused which promoted her to commit incest with Hideo. This eventually became widely known to the villagers and most of them were disgusted. In addition, Lilfina also served as a prostitute for the villagers in order to gain some money to support herself and Hideo. Given that Hideo believed that Lilfina got killed by demons, Inertia revealed that it was actually the villagers doing. She whispered to them that Lilfina was pregnant with a demon's child which prompted them to kill her. Inertia then explained that the reason why she did all of this was for the sake of her sadistic tendencies on watching Hideo suffer as he was merely used as a tool for her own entertainment while aiming to bring back the demon king. Realizing that the enemy he swore to exact his revenge upon was Inertia all along, he planned out on how to kill her. Just then, Kubiwan slashed her sword on Inertia, injuring her again before receiving a roundhouse kick. Inertia then charged towards Hideo as he made his next move to defeat Inertia once and for all. Later on, Hideo is seen with Kubiwan who's about to meet the demon king that got resurrected. He, alongside the demons, starts preparing for a real battle. Marika’s & Ririka’s Ending By the time Hideo woke up after an intense battle from invading a town, he suddenly saw Marika & Ririka on his bed partially naked. They then started to express their love for him, which led them to have sex. Afterwards, Marika and Ririka sealed away the demons (Damsel and Zetro) from both of Hideo's hands. The scene then cuts to them going on a journey far North from the imperial capital to find the legendary sword called "Sonata Arctica" that can be used to destroy the Demon King. It has been revealed that both of these girls already sensed a demonic presence within Hideo long ago ever since he took residence in the castle. Back when they were having sex from that morning, they used one of their secret magical techniques where they surrounded Hideo in their magical circle to eradicate the demonic essence before he ended up being consumed by the demonic urges. Hideo then questioned about his past actions when he was still consumed with anger and plotted a revenge scheme for the sake of his deceased sister Lilfina. However, he acknowledged that both Marika and Ririka helped him redeem his life as they forgave him for his past actions. They happily continue on their journey to find the legendary sword while Marika and Ririka tease each other along the way. Mutsuki Yukari’s Ending At one point, Hideo admitted to Mutsuki that he was actually the legendary hero that she's been closely affiliated with back when they were fighting against the demons years ago. Mutsuki initially thought he was already dead, and she was completely flabbergasted that the man she loved was still here, alive in the form of a priest. He also admitted to her that he is now siding with the demons for his own personal goal for plotting a revenge, further devastating her. Later that night, Mutsuki meets Hideo in his room and she sets up a magical barrier to prevent anyone from interrupting them. While she doesn't understand why he became a demon, she still loves him very much and she wanted to have sex with him just like how they did back in the past. Hideo felt a sense of nostalgia and he was overjoyed to have sex with her again. Afterwards, Mutsuki defected from the imperial capital and joined the demon army to stay by Hideo’s side. Aneirinn’s Ending After a long rest, Hideo realized that he overslept. It was already late at night and Hideo tried to find Kubiwan, but she was nowhere to be found in his room. He then walked around the castle to try and find her but when he entered the cathedral, he found Aneirinn performing a majestic dancing ritual. After having a brief chat with each other, they started to get intimate and have sex. As Hideo was enjoying the pleasure, the image of Kubiwan suddenly flashes in his mind which confused him. Later on, his body became paralyzed and Aneirinn had him confess about his desire to seek revenge for the sake of his sister Lilfina. Aneirinn then smiled and said that she will be with him for his support before erasing his memories and sealing away the demonic essences within his body. The scene then cuts to them as a married couple working at a tavern. Iria Regate’s Ending Even since Hideo took over the body of Iria’s brother Andersen, the memories of Andersen ended up getting merged into Hideo’s mind which greatly influenced him to be more loving towards her. By dawn, Iria who is still oblivious to the fact that Hideo is disguising himself as her brother, meets him in his room where they start getting intimate towards each other. Iria mentioned that she believed that her brother Andersen would’ve been a suitable knight to protect and serve the country. However, Andersen threw away his sword for the sake of his sister Iria which is what she truly loved about him. Hideo is fully aware he is not Andersen and he recalls his desire for revenge for the sake of his deceased sister Lilfina. However, he was greatly touched by Iria's love and compassion which reminded him about his moments with Lilfina back then. After having sex, Iria mentioned that her father had organized an arranged marriage for her with another man. With a strong desire for both of them to be together, Hideo and Iria made preparations to flee from the imperial capital. Hideo also wrapped both of his hands with bandages as a temporary measure to seal away the two demons (Damsel and Zetro). He doesn't know how long he'll be able to keep up posing as Iria's brother Andersen, but if a moment ever arrives where his mind gets completely consumed by demonic urges, he will greatly accept Iria to slay him. They then proceeded to go somewhere that no one will ever find them and they promised to each other that they'll always be together. Hideo ensures he’ll do whatever he can to stay as Iria's brother until the very end. Tristyna Eltorlida’s Ending At night, princess Tristyna noticed that the demons were attacking the castle. She quickly rushed over to Hideo's room, guiding him to a secret underground passage to flee from the castle. While she was oblivious to the fact that Hideo was actually aiming to use her as a sacrifice to resurrect the demon king, Tristyna started to realize that Hideo who was posing as a priest is actually the legendary hero that fought for her country against the demons long ago. When they started to rest at a nearby room, Tristyna’s kindness and compassion was touched by Hideo as she understood the tough times he’s been through back then while protecting the country. He gradually became more attached towards Tristyna and he knew that if her virginity gets taken, she will no longer be eligible to be used as a sacrifice to resurrect the demon king which he later admitted about this to her. Tristyna then offered her body to him as she understood the situation. Afterwards, Hideo became the new emperor of the imperial capital and married Tristyna. It was implied that because Hideo took Tristyna's virginity, the resurrection of the demon king was simply delayed which implies that the demons are searching for a new sacrifice. As the battle against the demons goes on, Hideo and Tristyna happily serve as the new rulers of the imperial capital. Creole’s Ending At dawn, Creole with her body temperature being abnormally high, meets Hideo in his room. She explained that her body is currently in a state that has a strong desire to copulate with the opposite gender. This normally happens to all demi-humans like herself whenever the moon is at certain phases, however Hideo suspects that Creole’s state is also caused by his actions on weakening the magical barrier of the castle. Hideo then asked Creole why she specifically came to him, and she said that she did it out of instinct. They eventually became intimate towards each other and ended up having sex to satiate Creole's lust. Afterwards, Creole talked about her past life being rough as a demi-human ever since she was a child. People shunned her especially when her body became sexually active which coerced her into holding back her urges. However, Hideo was different from most people as he accepted her for who she is which is the main reason why she dedicated herself to him. This suggests that Creole really is in love with Hideo. Creole also mentioned that her services as a maid are no longer needed in the castle and she's been ordered to leave. Touched by Creole's warmth and kindness, Hideo doesn't want to leave her side, especially after learning the harsh treatments demi-humans normally get in the country. He then decided to seal away the demons (Damsel and Zetro) from his hands with the help of Marika's magic and spent the rest of his life as a real priest, working at an orphanage in a rural area with Creole. They happily live together as a married couple with their demi-human child.

Ayana’s Ending After the events took place back in July 19th where Takugi’s cult committed mass suicide, Yukito is seen in front of his school. Today is the 21st of July which is also the second day of summer break in Japan. The day that the world should’ve ended has already passed and Yukito being in front of his school right now doesn’t see anything unusual. However, he doesn’t exactly recall why he came to his school during the summer break. Yukito then meets up with Ayana at the school roof and they recall everything that happened right before the beginning of July 20th. Ayana also mentioned that back before when Mamiya was still horrified about dying, she asked him if he wanted eternal life, to which he responded saying that he doesn’t. Takuji also abstained from answering her question about him wanting to have eternal life filled with endless happiness and joy. Ayana then asked Yukito the same questions, and he responded by stating that he couldn’t give an answer to that since he cannot imagine what it would be like (Up to this point, this dialogue is also found in Kotomi’s Ending). Yukito then told Ayana that at the same moment when Takugi killed himself, he saw something horrific that was engulfing the sky. Ayana said that it was the End Sky which brought the world to an end. Yukito however was in disbelief since everything around them still seems normal. Ayana then mentioned that whenever a world gets annihilated, a new world will take its place which suggests that the world Yukito and Ayana are currently in might be different from the last one before July 20th and it may have already ended. Because of that, Ayana told Yukito to be careful on what he does since the world they’re currently in might end up changing and he’ll end up into the abyss. Yukito then wonders what would happen to this current world they’re in if he closed his eyes and reopened them. When he did, he starts to believe that maybe the world he was in actually did end and now he’s in a completely different one with Ayana. When he opened his eyes, he saw Ayana completely naked and they started having sex as she confessed her love to him. Afterwards, Ayana asked Yukito where he would like to go. She then asked if he wanted to go to the Abyss and he agreed on that. However Ayana then told him that the world they’re in now is the abyss and Yukito is completely unfazed by that. Kotomi’s Ending (The premise for the first couple of moments in this ending is about the same as the previous one, except Yukito meets with Ayana in the classroom) Yukito and Ayana had a broad conversation about the philosophy of different concepts, especially related to life. Ayana then confessed her love towards Yukito and she is grateful to have ever met him in this world (implying that there are multiple worlds out there). She then kissed him on the cheek and vanished. Yukito to his surprise is now facing Kotomi in the classroom which is also filled with his classmates as if nothing happened. Yukito asked Kotomi what happened with Ayana, but she said that she’s not familiar with that girl. Kotomi also mentioned that it's already been just over a month since July 19th and it's now the first day of a new school term on September 1st. Yukito was completely puzzled on what just happened since just a few seconds ago, he was talking with Ayana on July 21 and then within a blink of an eye, she just disappeared and now it's September 1st. Kotomi then started to talk about the philosophy of eternal life in the same way as Ayana did which further surprised Yukito. Kotomi then mentioned that as their new semester begins, they will always be together forever.

https://vndb.org/v3246 Main Menu Tsui no Sora is an eroge visual novel developed by KeroQ and released back in August 27, 1999, before getting its OVA hentai adaptation three years later which wasn’t well received. The story is about a bunch of highschool students who are concerned about a rumor that the world will end at the beginning of summer break which is July 20th. Eventually, more people started to believe this, losing their minds as July 20th was coming closer. They get consumed by fear as they become more desperate, seeking whatever they can do for salvation which later on forms a cult underneath the school’s old outdoor pool. This visual novel takes on the perspective of four key characters; Yukito Minakami, Kotomi Wakatsuki, Zakuro Takashima and Takuji Mamiya. While the premise of this story contains some light-hearted and funny moments, there’s also some psychological horror and philosophical elements that are deeply connected to what chaos lies ahead for each of these characters. "There are still a lot of things outside" Yukito Minakami is a very philosophical student with a hobby of reading books and also being laid back on certain occasions. Kotomi Wakatsuki is the close friend of Yukito since childhood who tends to get violent whenever she’s mad and also a member of the Kendo club. Zakuro Takashima is a mysterious girl who’s close to Kotomi and committed suicide for reasons that are related to the end of the world. And finally Takuji Mamiya is a timid and estranged boy who often gets bullied by the delinquents and is greatly influenced by the idea about the world ending which he learned from Zakuro. There’s also another key character in this visual novel which is a girl named Ayana Otonashi. She’s also an estranged student, often going to the school roof to look at the sky and also greatly influenced by the world coming to an end. She’s very philosophical on different things just like Yukito and she serves as an enigma to the storyline given that she knows certain things that other normal people don’t. As you progress through the visual novel, you’ll end up learning more about these characters and what roles they play as the rumors about the world ending on July 20th spreads out across the school. Out of all of these routes, I find Takuji’s to be the most interesting as it features the most amount of character development where Takuji initially started out as a frail boy getting picked on by others, and then became someone who [spoiler alert] runs a cult and takes over the entire school. His route also contains lots of psychological horror elements where most of it involves him hallucinating on seeing these strange otherworldly creatures which seems to signify his great fear about the world ending. Kotomi: "Huh?!" During Yukito’s route, the story starts off as being light hearted where the characters are behaving normally as the plot introduces them on who and what they are. There were some points that are pretty funny such as Yukito flipping Kotomi’s skirt up in retaliation for waking him up too roughly. However, the plot becomes more dark and edgy as you keep learning more about the events related to the end of the world. As mentioned before, this visual novel contains psychological horror which makes the storyline very compelling, making you want to read more to find out what happens next. There’s also some violence and blood present in the story which some readers may not have the heart to face. In terms of the philosophical content presented in this visual novel, they are mostly talked about by Yukito, Takuji and Ayana. While I was somewhat immersed by it, I find them to be rather mundane and not that interesting. The dialogue for it is so complex that I ended up skipping most of these philosophical related topics. It would be interesting if the developers somehow managed to merge the psychological horror aspects with the philosophical related topics of the story, but for the most part they occur as separate instances. In my opinion, most of the philosophical related topics felt more like unnecessary fillers just like some of the dialogue from the H-scenes. Takuji: "Listen up! To all of you consumed with fear" Speaking of the H-scenes, they were okay. They weren’t too long and some of them were heart-warming while others were a bit uncanny. I wouldn’t consider most of them to be filler content since they do provide some background information for the key characters and dialogue related to the world ending. In comparison to the other eroges in today’s time, Tsui no Sora (1999) has very few H-scenes, which I think is a good thing. If an H-scene doesn’t contribute at all to the main story then I don’t think it's worth adding it to the visual novel to serve as a filler and waste the reader’s time. In terms of the music, they were decent but they are basically just short repetitions which seems rather lazy. As for the art, while it's not entirely the best, it was pretty good especially for the background art and character sprites. I do find the granulated textures of the walls and roads to be quite ominous. Of course the art is low in quality, but I’m not going to complain about that since I would assume the developers had very limited access to technology as they were making this visual novel. Not to mention that it's the first visual novel ever made by KeroQ. However this old low quality art style does give out a more ominous feeling that fits into the horror genre for this visual novel. Zakuro: "I think I lost it" Moving on to the technical features for Tsui no Sora (1999), it's very different from most of the other modern visual novels. In order to access the menu to save/load, you’d have to right click anywhere on the screen which opens a new window. However, this does not occur when you’re in the middle of making a choice within the story which makes it inconvenient in case you don’t want to miss certain dialogues or CGs throughout your progress. You also don’t have the option to quick-save and there’s no backlog feature to back trace the dialogue. On top of that you only have 8 save slots available so you’d have to be wise on when it's appropriate for you to save. In terms of saving your progress, it is a bit unorthodox. The game doesn’t save at the exact moment from where you left off, but rather at the beginning of a particular scene/chapter. Let’s say for example that one of the key characters had a long conversation with someone else and you decided to stop midway and save. When you load back in, the game just takes you all the way back to the beginning of the conversation. Because of that, you either have to skim through the dialogue to roughly find where you left off or you’d have to finish the entire conservation and enter into a new scene/chapter before you can finally give yourself a checkpoint. In my opinion, this just feels very impractical. Where are you going: Rooftop/Classroom/School Gate/Gymnasium In terms of the choices you make in the visual novel, most of them don’t affect the storyline. However there is one moment in Yukito’s route where Kotomi is crying at the school’s old pool and you’re given a choice on whether or not to comfort her. If you do comfort her, you’ll get Kotomi’s endings. If you don’t comfort her, you’ll get Ayana’s ending. Depending on that one choice you make, you’ll acquire one of these two endings after completing Takuji’s route. Leave her alone/Comfort her When you complete the visual novel, you’ll be sent to a new main menu of the game that shows an eye present on the top-left corner. Clicking on that will open up a new user interface that allows you to go back to previous chapters for all of the four main protagonists. What’s convenient is that it helps you go straight to the alternative ending you haven’t come across yet, which saves a lot of time. If for example you completed the game with Ayana’s ending, you can then go to that interface and select the button that says “Kotomi Mode,” and then click on the bottom most button that is next to the label “From then on.” That’s a lot more convenient than spending minutes on going all the way back to the in-game choices and skipping all of the dialogue you’ve already read. Unfortunately, the visual novel doesn’t have an in-game recollection list of CGs or H-scenes you’ve already come across. If you want to revisit them, relying on this end-game user interface is the best option. End-Game Interface While I am not a fan about the complex writing style in this visual novel that sometimes goes off on a tangent, I was still immersed by how it portrays its philosophical ideologies related to various aspects, especially when it talks about human life. Of course I also admire its psychological horror elements which I’m a huge fan of. While I’m fully aware that this visual novel already got itself a remake back in 2020, I still brought myself to go for the 1999 original because for me personally, it felt better to do so. Despite it being old, I still enjoyed it and it's nice to know that someone is bringing upon themselves to translate this wonderful game. Best of luck to them!

After a rigorous battle against the guardians of the ruins, Fernandes, Tisaris and Aisya went to the core of the ruins to obtain the lost technology and use it as a bargaining chip against the oncoming Northern military battalion in order to protect the South. After having Aisya extract the knowledge for the lost technology, Tisaris suddenly pulled out a gun towards Fernandes. She then explained to Fernandes that while the lost technology in the ruins are valuable, there’s no guarantee that the North would actually spare their lives. Because of that, Tisaris proposed to Fernandes to cut ties with the South and join her with the North to live better lives. She also mentioned to him that he actually resents the South since the military tampered his memories before bringing him to the moon against his will. While he understood that, he had no intention of abandoning Epica and the others. Tisaris then tried to reason with Fernandes, stating that those girls were merely slaves to the ECLIPSE system and their love for him isn’t genuine. He then replied stating that he still wants to protect them after everything they’ve done for each other. Tisaris then started to break in tears, stating that she actually had feelings for him. Since he was being more affectionate to her sister Luserina and the four other girls, she resents them for preventing Fernandes from not acknowledging her love for him. Tisaris then proceeded on killing Fernandes but all of a sudden, Aisya with the knowledge of the lost technology managed to activate the ruin’s gravity cannon and use it against the North’s forces, wiping them out entirely. Aisya then mentioned to Tisaris that she intended to commit suicide after killing Fernandes. Aisya also stated that her sister wouldn’t have wanted this after going through so much she endured in the past. The ceiling of the ruins then collapsed and fell towards Fernandes. Realizing the situation, Tisaris then brought herself to push him away from the falling debris which had her get killed in the process. Later on, the entire ruins collapsed and Fernandes lost consciousness. From this point onward, the story will then proceed to one of the following endings listed below which depends on the choices you made: Bad Ending Afterwards, Fernandes ended up getting captured by an assault team from the military and forcibly brought back to Earth where he was interrogated to reveal the information he gained from the moon. Eventually, he was able to escape and now he’s seen hiding in an alleyway selling drugs to some junkies while being pursued by the military. Even half a year after the incidents that took place from the moon, he still contemplates about the girls from the GYGO facility. Epica's Ending After the chaos from the underground ruins, Fernandes was able to survive thanks to the gravity control system protecting him from the falling debris. He then found Epica at the rubbled GYGO moon facility being severely wounded. However, they both ended up being saved thanks to Epica’s powerful and wealthy family, having them sent back to Earth and getting their wounds treated with all the medicine and technology they had. Later on, Fernandes was promoted to chief of the far east military weapons development department. With the advanced technology from the ruins along with the support of Epica’s family, he has the power to control the military to fight against the North. As for Epica, she ended up marrying him and became a devoted sex slave where she’ll never leave his side no matter what. Anna's Ending Located back on Earth at an isolated tropical island in the Southern seas, Fernandes is seen along with Anna and their children catching some fish. It was implied that after surviving the collapsed underground ruins, Fernandes found Anna in the rubbled GYGO facility being completely injured but was able to save her with whatever equipment and medicine was available. They ended up returning back to Earth, although it was never mentioned how they did it. In terms of the other three girls, he didn’t know what happened to them but he hopes that they are still alive and living peacefully. In addition, he and his family don't have to worry about the ongoing conflict between the North and South since they are far away from any contact. Monaka’s Ending Fernandes is seen living inside a cheap apartment located in the slums with Monaka cooking a meal for him. It is mentioned that the gravity control system from the ruins protected him from the falling debris which allowed him to escape. Afterwards, he stumbled across the rubbled GYGO moon facility where he saw Monaka severely injured and had her treated with whatever medical equipment was available before somehow returning back to Earth. Despite the conflicts between the North and South were still ongoing, Fernandes and Monaka were living peacefully. Fernandes also intends to sell some of the advanced technology he scavenged from the moon to make a profit. He also proposed to Monaka to marry her during her next upcoming birthday. He then swears to protect her for the rest of his life no matter what. Xuen’s Ending After the ruins collapsed, Fernandes ended up getting captured by an assault team and forcibly brought back to Earth. He was then given two options where he either leaves the military with his memories erased or he stays to serve the South. He chose the latter because he didn’t want to forget all of the precious moments he had with Xuen. He also ended up getting promoted to a higher rank in the military after a few months and became the director of a large research institute and this was partly thanks to Xuen’s wealthy family. He is then seen naked on bed with Xuen who’s pregnant with his child. Xuen mentioned that her relationship with her previous fiancé wasn’t going well and ended up breaking her engagement with him. She’s still greatly attached to Fernandes and is compelled to be his own personal slave. There are also plans for Fernandes and Xuen to get married and live happily together. Bashia’s Ending Back on Earth located in an alleyway, Fernandes and Bashia are seen in the slums taking care of a war orphan baby. Fernandes couldn’t exactly remember what happened right after the underground ruins collapsed, but it was presumed that Bashia was the one who brought him out of there thanks to her military tactics. As of now, Fernandes and Bashia have been labeled as fugitives in the public wanted list and are constantly being pursued by the military. But despite this, they promised to protect each other as a family no matter what. Aisya’s Ending As the underground ruins collapses, Aisya had Fernandes’s consciousness extracted out of his physical body and brought him to a spiritual world where they see each other encased in a bubble. It turns out that Aisya (who was confirmed to actually be an android) embodies the personality of his close lover Luserina. She stated that in her past life, she was sent to the moon to test the operation of the ECLIPSE system that involves synchronizing the human mind with artificial intelligence of androids. However, the experiment ended up being a failure and Luserina’s brain couldn’t withstand the system. Her physical body got completely destroyed but her mind ended up getting absorbed into the computer program. The researchers ended up abandoning the experiment and fled back to Earth, leaving Luserina’s consciousness behind. However, thanks to her special ability to freely send electrical signals of her consciousness anywhere towards Earth, she was able to find Fernandes and had him brought to the moon where she could finally meet the man she loved for so long. She then gave Fernandes two options where he either has his consciousness returned to his physical body or he stays in the spiritual world with her. Fernandes straight-up chose the latter, saying that as long as he’s with Luserina, he doesn’t need anything else. She was overjoyed with what he said and they promised to each other that they’ll always be together. Side Note: It is mentioned from Aisya’s ending that she was able to synchronize her consciousness with the technology of the ruins. This would suggest that during all of these endings, Fernandes was able to survive thanks to Aisya’s ability to utilize the gravity control technology and save him from getting crushed by the falling rubble.

https://vndb.org/v2633 [Main Menu] Eclipse -Zettai Reido Keikaku Soushitsu Shoujo- is an eroge visual novel developed by CLOCKUP and released on May 14, 2003 before getting an HD remaster in 2018 which contains both the parent story and the fandisc. The story takes place in the distant future where Earth has been constantly bombarded by a series of wars and conflicts for several decades, preventing everyone from living a peaceful life. The main character for this visual novel is namable but by default, his name is Fernandes Katugen who is a scientific researcher and he also plays the role as a lieutenant running a military base on Earth’s moon which is referred to as GYGO. Monaka: "There! Take that!!" The visual novel starts off with Fernandes being locked up in a prison cell for illegally selling drugs. During that time, he is met with a familiar and mischievous associate of his named Tisaris Ariass who wants him to serve the Southern military for the purpose of protecting the underground ruins located on the moon that they’ve captured by fending off the Northern rivals. Fernandes refused but he was eventually tricked by Tisaris and he was brought to the GYGO moon facility anyway. From there, he is met with a girl named Aisya who appoints his duties to him as Lieutenant running this lunar military research facility that is involved in researching on what is referred to as the ECLIPSE system, also known as the Extra Control Link In Psychic Synchronization Effect System. Girl (Aisya): "Recently I thought that it was about time for you to wake up so I came to get you" This ECLIPSE system is essentially a mechanism that enslaves the consciousness of the subject to become loyal subordinates for the military. It's mentioned that because females tend to have the instinct of being more submissive, the system is more compatible to them relative to males who tend to be more dominant and rebellious. With that being said, there are four girls that have been subjected to this ECLIPSE system and they are the heroines to this visual novel. There’s the cheerful and kind Epica Sakazaki who’s a bit of an airhead with unnaturally huge breasts. There’s Anna Lucille that has more of a tomboyish personality and tends to act aggressively when she’s mad. There’s Monaka who’s the youngest subject out of the four and she tends to be very laid back. And finally there’s Xuen Tie Ying who seems to be the most refined and loyal subject out of all of them. Fernandes has been assigned by the military to order these girls to protect the Southern military research facility which involves piloting a mobile suit called XEN-TRIX to fight against Northern forces. Aisya: "The data shows that younger women are more likely to tolerate the side effects of the ECLIPSE system" This visual novel has multiple endings for each of the heroines and they are obtained based on how you interact with them and what choices you make. There are also cases where if you choose the wrong choices, that would lead to a scene where the main character is faced with a tragic situation which results in the “BAD END” as stated in the interface. I would assume that he died and I would end up straight back to the main menu just like any typical visual novel, however that’s not the case for this one. If you end up getting the “BAD END” you would actually end up back to the scene where the main character just realized he was transported to the moon as if nothing happened. Even after reading the entire visual novel and getting all the endings, I’m not entirely sure why/how the main character just somehow magically returned to the GYGO moon facility after presumably getting killed during the “BAD END.” It's as if time just simply rewinded or maybe it was related to the memories of the main character getting tampered by the military which has been mentioned multiple times. In any case, it does seem quite strange. Unlike most other visual novels, this one actually has 3D animated cutscenes between the dialogue when you’re fighting in battle with the XEN-TRIX mobile suit and I’m quite amazed by it considering that this was made back in the early 2000s. I’m surprised that CLOCKUP back in that day actually had the budget to implement these scenes especially for the fact that this is only their second visual novel they made. Despite this unique characteristic, this visual novel does face the same problem like most other eroges that have voiced female characters but no voiced male characters. Darn… The story for ECLIPSE was certainly compelling. Apart from this science-fiction themed plot during what I would assume to be world war III, the story also goes in-depth about the backstory for each of the heroines pretty well which also leads to some romantic relationships with the main character. The visual novel also does a good job on character development for the main protagonist. Fernandes started off as some pitiful drug dealer not giving a care in the world until he met the people from the GYGO moon facility which changed him as a person. This reminds me of the story from CLOCKUP’s previous visual novel Kegareta Eiyuu ~Jain Seijo Gari~ which is nice. In my opinion however, I don’t think it's a good idea to heavily rely on past work and recycle some contents for the development of a new visual novel otherwise it wouldn’t feel original. Despite ECLIPSE and Kegareta Eiyuu having completely different stories, they do feel pretty similar to each other where the protagonist went through tragic events in his past life before getting greeted by girls which caused him to change. Even so, I still enjoyed it. As for the H-scenes, they were pretty long but some of the dialogue they contained does contribute to the main story and the backstory for the heroines, especially for Xuen Tie Ying’s route. In that case, I’d recommend you partly skim through the dialogue instead of skipping them entirely so that you wouldn’t miss out on some interesting information. I tore off the clothing at the tip of the breasts. Just as Epica mentioned, she wasn't wearing a bra which completely exposed her nipples In terms of the fandisc 2GHz for ECLIPSE, the story for this takes place before the events occurred from the parent story. This fandisc has two stories and they both revolve around the backstory of Fernandes’s lover Luserina who has been subjected to various experiments for the sake of a project which revolves around manipulating the consciousness of the human mind. This is referred to as project E. One part focuses on Luserina’s diary that talks about what she was going through during her times in the research facility and what experiments she’s been subjected to for project E. However, most of this story is pretty much the same as found in the parent visual novel until you get to somewhere between April 12th and 30th. The other part focuses on a conversation between Muramatsu (Luserina’s colleague) and Tisaris (Luserina’s sister) that further emphasizes the tragic experiments Luserina has been through during project E and how it all ended. The story for this Fan Disc was quite interesting with some plot twists and a little bit of NTR. The dialogue from the H-scenes didn’t contribute much to the main plot so I just skipped most of them. One thing I should point out is the fact that Tisaris in the Fan Disc has not been voiced which is a bit odd since she was voiced in the parent story. Not sure why this was the case but I’ll be willing to set it aside since the story was pretty interesting. Although it's already bad enough that there are no male voice actors. The alleyway was mostly bright but there seems to be a small dark shadow hanging over between these buildings To be honest, the storytelling in this visual novel feels more like an improved version of that for Kegerta Eiyuu. It almost seems that CLOCKUP took up the feedback from their previous visual novel and used it to develop a new one. If that really was the case then I truly admire them for that. I highly recommend you play this visual novel, especially if you’re into sci-fiction or even mecha battles containing 3D animated cutscenes. I hope this visual novel gets translated one day for a broader audience to experience it.

Note: This visual novel actually has a total of 18 endings which includes the two endings from the separate visual novel that focuses on Nanako's story. Originally I was going to list them all, however I eventually realized that a lot of them were quite similar to each other. Most of them were about the heroines becoming mindless sex slaves and its starting to feel a bit repetitive. Because of that, it didn't feel necessary to spend time and explain all of the endings in explicit detail. Instead, I decided to keep things simple and just focus on the Extra Scenarios since they are more interesting. Enjoy! All the Extra Scenarios Yui’s Volunteer After going through various sexual activities, Atsuko completely lost her mind and she eventually became addicted to sex. She then had her younger sister Yui arrive at the volunteer center of the town where women had sex with men to relieve their sexual urges. This traumatized her and as time went on, Yui was forced by the mayor to engage in these voluntary works just like her sister. She ended up getting molested by Kenji and his Dad while on the bus and got gangraped by multiple homeless men in the park. Yui eventually lost her will to resist and arrived at the volunteer center where she had more sex with multiple men. As this was happening, Mayor Ooguro was seen speaking to his associates where they discussed taking over another town and having more female candidates on becoming sex slaves. Yui’s Favorite Because of John, Yui was forced to engage in sexually servicing him and other male students. This caused her to go insane and eventually she grew to enjoy these sexual activities. However, she still had feelings for Chikako’s younger brother Asuma. When Asuma sees Yui pleasuring the male students, he is taken by surprise. Yui then pleaded to Asuma to have sex with him since she still loves him but Asuma rejected her. The next day, Yui learned that Asuma was really close to his older sister Chikako ever since their parents died and he was solely raised by her. Yui then became completely jealous and devised a plan where she tricked Chikako into coming to her school late at night, and subjected her to get humiliated with the help of the male students. Asuma was then seen entering the classroom where he saw what was happening to her sister. Yui then had Asuma restrained as she was bringing herself to have sex with him. Later on, Asuma was tied up in Yui’s bedroom where she trained him to become her own personal sex slave. The Beginning of Everything As Atsuko and Yui were making their escape from the town, Touya attempted to pursue them but he was stopped by Azusa. She then mentioned that in her past life she was used as an experimental tool by Touya’s ancestor who was responsible for giving her a body that is completely immortal. A flashback then occurred which took place several hundred years ago where Azusa worked for a famous medical scientist named Sasamaru from the capital of Japan. She was initially helping him for the purpose of helping other people in need but when she found out that Sasamaru had been performing inhumane experiments on people, she decided to leave his organization. Sasamaru would soon realize her desertion and had some pursuers sent out to dispatch her. During her escape, she was found by a shrine maiden named Kurenai who treated her wounds and allowed her to stay at her village. Months go by as Azusa was doing various jobs around the village but at one moment while they were having a picnic, Azusa noticed that Sasamaru arrived at their village where he was seen giving the people what he claims to be medicine. When Azusa told Kurenai about Sasamaru being associated with inhumane experiments, Kurenai was in denial as she truly believed that Sasamaru was a kind man and also because they were childhood friends. Kurenai then told Azusa to wait at the picnic site while she goes and talk to Sasamaru. However, hours go by and when Azusa came back to the village, she saw people groaning in pain and some of them dead. Then when Azusa faces Sasamaru, he mentioned that he was in the process of testing a potion that can grant immortality to a person. He then forced Azusa to drink the potion in order to test its effects. Azusa then passed out which made Sasamuru assume that the potion was a failure. He then had his army set the entire village ablaze before returning back to the capital. Afterwards, Azusa woke up and found Kurenai completely injured in the burning temple. Azusa then intended to go and get help but Kurenai stopped her, begging her to not leave her. She then apologized for not believing her in the first place before passing away. Azusa then proceeded to kill herself by piercing her heart with a kunai, but she was unable to die due to the potion that Sasamaru gave her. She then left the burning village while vowing her revenge against Sasamaru. As time went on, she learned that Sasamaru had passed his research to his own descendants before passing away. Going back to the present, it was revealed that Sasamaru was the ancestor of Touya Azumi who is continuing these cruel experiments at present time. After learning about Azusa’s immortality, Touya thought it could be useful for his research. Touya then proceeded on attacking Azusa after revealing that he administered himself a drug that while not granting the ability to become immortal, gave him 50 times the strength of a human. However, Azusa with her immense power was able to defeat Touya, putting him down. Later on, Atsuko and Yui were seen living normal lives in a different town after successfully escaping. Atsuko also learned that her father was involved in the town’s schemes and while devastated she still went on with her life. She also learned from a newspaper article that multiple people at the Minamisuicho town were arrested for being involved in various sex crimes, including the principal and the mayor. Atsuko then wondered where Azusa was since she was the one who helped them escape. And then to her surprise, Azusa suddenly showed up meeting Atsuko in person and she welcomed her with a smile. Commuter Bus Volunteer It's been 10 days since Atsuko started volunteering to relieve the sexual urges of men in order to protect her student Tomoe. She was then assigned by the mayor to get on the public bus and get molested by multiple men there. This continued on for 10 hours and when she was done, she was reminded that this will happen again tomorrow. Atsuko, who has completely lost her mind, started to enjoy the pleasure of getting molested. Cosplay Volunteer After 2 weeks of doing voluntary service for the sexual needs of men, Atusko was then assigned to put on a school uniform and have sex with Genjirou in the school in front of multiple students. While Atsuko didn’t want to engage in the act, she was told that if she refuses then Tomoe will take her place. Atsuko with the intention to protect her student then reluctantly agreed. Eventually all the other male students gangraped Atsuko. Tragedy at the Construction Site Asuma believed that due to his illness, he became too much of a burden to his older sister Chikako. He then decided to look for a part-time job so that he can support her. He eventually found an opportunity to work at a construction site. The workers accepted him but little did he know that they were using this opportunity to have sex with his older sister. The next day while Chikako was working in the clothing design company, she got a call from the construction workers stating that her little brother caused an accident at the construction site. When she came over there, she was told by the workers that the damages caused by the accident had cost them about 100 million yen. Chikako admits that she doesn’t have that kind of money, however the workers are willing to accept other means for compensation and that was having sex with her body. This goes on for days and at one point, the workers ended up in her apartment where they had more sex. Asuma who was still at home saw what was happening to his sister which caused him to lose his mind and laugh hysterically. Later on, Chikako’s uncle Eiji Hosaka was seen being frustrated after learning that she ended up sexually servicing the construction workers on a regular basis under her own will for the sake of Asuma. Mayor Ooguro talked to Hosaka about this, stating that there is nothing he can do about it which irritated Hosaka since he was planning to make Chikako his personal mistress. In terms of Asuma, he was seen sitting in a park filled with homeless people. After learning what Chikako went through for his sake, he completely lost the will to live with a vacant look in his eyes. Occasionally he was fed with bread crusts offered by the homeless people and they told him that he needs to eat because he’ll end up doing some work in the town. During this time, Chikako was still getting gangraped by the construction workers. She then called out to Asuma in her head, saying that she’s sorry that she wasn’t able to protect him.

https://vndb.org/v1704 Machi Gurumi no Wana is an eroge visual novel developed by SYRUP and released on June 26, 2009. It starts off with a woman named Atsuko Takagi along with her sister Yui and her father Shinji who recently moved into a new town named Minamisuicho (according to Google Translate) where they’ll start a new life. However, what awaits in this town are a series of debauchery and sexual assaults that Atsuko will face along with the other heroines featured in this visual novel. Depending on the choices you make, different endings are acquired. Translation: Yui wraped her arm around mine and tugs me as we start walking This visual novel takes on the perspective of multiple characters as you progress through the story. At first it takes on the perspective of Atsuko who’s applying as a teacher in the town she just moved in with her family. There are four other main characters that the visual novel revolves around which are Yui Takagi, Chikako Yada, Azusa Ichinose and Nanako (From a separate VN installation). They are the other main heroines, each having their own routes that lead to their own endings. Translation: A cute boy was standing next to Yui The main story for this visual novel was quite compelling, but most of it consisted of H-scenes which pretty much makes this visual novel more of a nukige. In fact, it reminded me some of the visual novels I played that were developed by Waffle. I skipped most of them along with some of the dialogue between the H-scenes since they don’t contribute much to the main story. Although there were some moments during the H-scenes where the dialogue goes more in depth about the characters and their background, so I wouldn’t recommend skipping all of them. Plus the art was quite appealing. What’s convenient about this visual novel is that it actually has a flow-chart that you can use as a guide to navigate throughout different character routes and easily track which endings/CGs you haven’t come across. The dotted lines on the chart represent branches of extra scenarios that are unlocked after acquiring certain endings. In my opinion, all visual novels should have this feature. That way, we won’t have to rely on hours of trial & error or search up some strategy guide on a Japanese website just to get to those few endings or CGs that we may have missed. In-Game Flow Chart There are so many characters present in this visual novel and each of them contribute to the main plot significantly well. What I don’t like however is the fact that all the female characters (including the side female characters) are voiced while the male characters aren’t. There are so many male character sprites featured in the visual novel and yet none of them are voiced. This isn’t really surprising to me though as there are so many visual novels out there with the same problem, although I still find this frustrating. Another thing I should point out is the fact that all of the female character sprites pretty much have the same face layout with big round eyes and a small nose resembling this young appearance. The male character sprite faces on the other hand have a lot more variation to them (except for Asuma who’s basically effeminate). In my opinion, it would’ve been better if SYRUP added more variations to these female faces to give them more distinct appearances. Honestly, this just feels a bit lazy. Male vs. Female Facial Features Comparing the story of this visual novel to that of its hentai adaptation seems quite consistent to each other. There were some parts in the story that are different but overall, it's pretty much the same. But unlike the visual novel, the hentai adaptation doesn’t go into much depth about the story and mainly focuses on sex. But as mentioned earlier, this visual novel is more of a typical nukige so I'm not really surprised. Needless to say, the visual novel is far better than its low budget hentai adaptation created by the infamous PoRO. While I did enjoy the story of this visual novel, it was heavily diluted with long H-scenes that didn’t feel necessary. Out of all the routes I went through for each heroine, Azusa’s route was the most compelling one, having significantly less H-scenes and being more focused on her background which also provided some insight about this strange town’s past. The rest of the routes for the other characters are heavily focused on sex but they too also go in-depth about the character's background. But in my opinion Azusa’s story is way more interesting. Nonetheless, I still recommend this visual novel for the ESSENCE.

One of CLOCKUP’s visual novels titled “DEAD DAYS” recently got released in MangaGamer, fully translated into English. This looks interesting given that I’m a big fan of CLOCKUP’s visual novels, especially for Euphoria. I even brought myself to play their first visual novel they ever made titled “Kegareta Eiyuu ~Jain Seijo Gari~” and I really enjoyed it. I even reviewed it on my personal blog. However, why hasn’t Fraternite been translated yet? It's already been 10 years since CLOCKUP released this visual novel and a lot of people have been talking about it, giving it reviews and what not but I’m surprised that there hasn’t even been an unofficial English translation available on vndb. What could be the reason why? I know it's extreme but there are other visual novels just as extreme if not more than Fraternite such as Maggot Baits and SaDistic BlooD which contain explicit gore content and they’ve been translated into English. Why is Fraternite’s English translation being left out in the dark despite being one of CLOCKUP's highly known visual novel?

Here's a Japanese Wikipedia that summarizes the characters and endings in the visual novel Kegareta Eiyuu ~Jain Seijo Gari~. Make sure to use Google Translate if you don't speak Japanese. https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/けがれた英雄_〜邪淫聖女狩〜

Medical Student? Overtime, Aoi Kanzaki was overwhelmed by the sexual pleasure given by Takeshi Shimazu, making her want to be with him more and less with Akito. Despite everything Akito did to win her back, Aoi was completely overtaken by Takeshi’s charm. Akito then decided to give up and accept it but then he overheard Takeshi talking on the cellphone in his car, saying to one of his associates that he was merely training Aoi to become a successful prostitute at a brothel so that he’ll pimp her to make money. Akito confronts Takeshi about this and it is confirmed that Takeshi never really loved Aoi in the first place. Learning the truth caused Akito to go into a fit of rage. He brought an old wooden baseball bat and smashed through the window on Takeshi’s car, unlocking the door and dragging him out. He then starts to punch his face multiple times. During the incident, Takeshi admitted that he’s not actually a medical student but rather a third-rate university student who took the student ID of someone he mugged. In addition, his name is not even Takeshi Shimazu and his red sports car was actually a rental. Note: The quotation marks on Takeshi refers to the character having this fake name Just then, Aoi Kanzaki showed up and stopped Akito beating up “Takeshi.” She then said that she overheard everything that “Takeshi” said out loud while talking on the phone. Aoi then admitted that she actually had this vague idea beforehand that “Takeshi” never truly loved her to begin with. But despite that, the words that “Takeshi” said about loving her felt good and as a result, a weak version of herself was born, making her want to drown in those honeyed words despite them being false. On top of that, “Takeshi” was more mature and reserved, knowing how to treat Aoi as an adult while Akito was more childish and impulsive. Aoi acknowledged that “Takeshi” taught her how to make love as an adult and she was immersed by that so she didn’t really care if he lied to her. Akito then complained to her, stating that any form of relationship that involves deception is wrong. For him to be in a relationship, he would rather be open to the person he loves and just be himself instead of acting like someone who he’s not, which Aoi understands. Aoi then tells “Takeshi” that she’s done with this fake relationship and wants to move on. After he drives away, Aoi berates Akito for only being mad at “Takeshi” and not her too since she went along with the fake relationship which devastated Akito. Aoi also tells him that he’s too soft to form a relationship with anyone. After arguing with each other, they went back to their homes still feeling disgruntled. Later on in the next morning, Aoi is seen waking up Akito as usual. Aoi accepts Akito for who he is and they go back to being lovers as before. In addition, Akito acknowledges the fact that he does have to grow up one day in the future with a more mature attitude. But he will always keep his promise to protect Aoi no matter what. Kurusu family’s spring, summer, fall and winter Yuuichirou Shouda absolutely despises Akito who beat him up and sent him to jail after kidnapping Aoi. He then plots his revenge by sexually assaulting Haruna who’s one of Akito’s cousins. When Akito and Natsumi found out what Shouda was doing to Haruna, they devised a plan to save her and take down Shouda for good. However, little did they know that Shouda heard their conversation by using a hidden microphone he placed on the window frame. Because of that, Shouda was able to outsmart both Akito and Natsumi, knocking both of them out. After 30 minutes when Natsumi regained consciousness, she saw Akito completely bludgeoned and bruised. Shouda then proceeded to strangle Akito right in front of Natsumi, devastating her. He also threatens Natsumi, saying that he’ll kill Akito if she doesn’t follow his orders. Natsumi also saw Haruna who was mentally broken after getting raped by Shouda multiple times. She completely loses her resolve and does whatever Shouda tells her to do. Shouda then proceeded to rape Natsumi as she constantly felt sorry for Haruna going through what Shouda subjected her in. Later on, Akito regained consciousness and he saw his cousin Natsumi getting raped by Shouda. Akito tried to help her but his body was completely paralyzed because Shouda injected him with a muscle relaxant. Shouda then ordered Haruna to copulate with Akito which she did without any hesitation despite Akito begging her not to. Natsumi who was still getting raped by Shouda saw what was happening between Akito and Haruna, and she blindly assumed that Akito felt pleasure seeing her getting raped and he made Haruna pleasure him on his own accord. Akito tried to reason with Natsumi, but it was to no avail as Shouda swayed her with false information. In addition, Natsumi also mentioned that both her and Haruna loved Akito and she was swayed into believing that Akito coldly rejected their feelings. Eventually, Haruna lost all hope and surrendered herself to pleasure as she’s getting raped by Shouda. As Akito was having sex with Haruna, he lost consciousness again. Later on, Akito is seen in his room getting woken up by Aoi. Akito then asked Aoi where Natsumi and Haruna were, and she said that they’ve already gone ahead to school, but they were behaving strangely. Akito first thought that everything that happened to Natsumi and Haruna was just a dream, that is until he got flashbacks about them plus his body still having visible injuries caused by Shouda, confirming that all of it was real. After Aoi left, Akito recalled that while he was still in the P.E. room, Shouda told him that if he tells anyone about Natsumi or Haruna, Aoi would be next. With no other option, Akito decided to keep all of this a secret and let his two cousins become sacrifices for the sake of Aoi. After one month passed by, Akito is seen sneaking into the school grounds at night, peering into the P.E. room to find Natsumi and Haruna still having sex with Shouda, enjoying it to the fullest. Believing that they’ll never go back to what they were before, Akito laments on his inability to help them. Cherry blossoms, scattered flowers Ryuichi Saeki subjected Sakurako Midori to various sexual acts so that she’ll be experienced enough to become the perfect love interest for Akito. In reality though, he was doing this to have Sakurako separate Akito from Aoi so that he’ll have Aoi all to himself for his own sexual desires. Eventually, Sakurako and Akito meet up at night in the school’s baseball field where she confesses her love to him. As instructed by Ryuichi, Sakurako proceeded to give Akito a fellatio to better ensure that he’ll accept her feelings. However, Akito stopped her and said that what she’s doing is not the right way to express her feelings. In addition, he said that he cannot accept her feelings because he’s already in love with another girl. This made Sakurako completely heart broken and after Akito walked away, Ryuichi who saw everything from behind the scenes came up to her and apologized that it didn’t work. Sakurako believed that she didn’t train hard enough to have Akito accept her. Regardless, Sakurako appreciated the help that Ryuchi gave her and she wanted to pay him back by helping him win over a relationship with Aoi. She also started to develop feelings towards Ryuchi after Akito dumped her. Ryuichi accepts her offer of assistance before making an evil grin. Afterwards, months go by and Ryuchi subjected Sakurako with more sexual acts so that he can plot his scheme to make Aoi Kanzaki his personal sex slave.

https://vndb.org/v2731 Main Menu True Blue Short Story is an eroge visual novel developed by LiLiM DARKNESS and released on August 25, 2006. It’s a sequel to the TRUE BLUE visual novel from 2002 and it's basically a collection of short stories along with some new characters being introduced. Unlike its prequel, True Blue Short Story doesn’t give you any choices to select. These short stories are entirely linear, each having only one ending. "I immediately turned my head to the side!" The first short story titled “Medical Student?” takes place months after the true ending of TRUE BLUE (2002) where (SPOILER WARNING) Akito managed to save Aoi from the secret organization. A new character named Takeshi Shimazu is featured who is a tough looking medical student that drives a bright red sports car. In this story, Takeshi develops feelings towards Aoi Kanzaki which builds up a separation between her and Akito. The second short story titled “Kurusu family’s spring, summer, fall and winter” also takes place after the incidents of TRUE BLUE (2002) and features two new characters Natsumi and Haruna. They are two of Akito’s cousins who came from an all girl school and they came to live with him due to their parents going on a business trip. The storytelling was very compelling for these two short stories due to the fact that they both consist of netorare (NTR) just like the prequel. In terms of the way these new characters were introduced, it was pretty average. It's nothing too crazy. The third and final short story is titled “Cherry blossoms, scattered flowers.” The premise for this one is relatively different from the other two short stories as it actually takes place in the past before the secret organization was targeting Aoi Kanzaki. Plus instead of Akito, the story mainly focuses on the perspective of Sakurako Midori who is Akito’s underclassmen. This story is about her having a crush on Akito and she wants to confess her feelings to him. However she was skeptical to do so as she saw another girl; Aoi Kanzaki, being close to Akito. She then relies on Ryuichi Saeki; the student council president, for some assistance on how she can develop a relationship with Akito. While there were no new characters being featured and no NTR content, the story was relatively unique in its own way. If you’ve played TRUE BLUE (2002), you would have noticed that out of all the characters, the story talks the least about Sakurako Midori. While there were some brief instances talking about her, it doesn’t fully emphasize on her personal life to have us truly understand her as a person. In addition, she was the only character in the entire TRUE BLUE (2002) visual novel that does not focus on her perspective. All of that was brought to light in this short story, allowing us to better understand Sakurako’s lifestyle and see what kind of person she really is instead of leaving her in the dark. Putting the short stories aside, there’s also a fun little whack-a-mole mini game where you have to get a high score in order to unlock some extra CGs that aren’t attainable through the short stories. What’s funny is that the moles are replaced by Yuuichirou Shouda and hitting him will score you a point. The game also involves Aoi Kanzaki and hitting her will jeopardize your score. As you move forward into the later stages of the minigame, it becomes progressively harder. You’ll also face a new type of target which is a bulky bald man wearing sunglasses that looks like he’s from the Yakuza. It takes multiple hits for that target to have the game register as a hit, making it more difficult to avoid a miss. In addition, you’ll also acquire some special abilities that can accommodate your gameplay. There’s rapid fire mode where the mallet will rapidly swing at a fast pace if you hold down the left mouse button. There is also a homing ability where if you right click, the mallet will instantly hit your desired targets but it won’t lock on to Aoi Kanzaki. The visuals were pretty decent. Putting the new CGs aside which look a lot more smoother than the CGs from the prequel, there are new background images which I assume have been reused from the previous visual novels LiLiM DARKNESS made. As for the character sprites, most of them were reused from the prequel. For the new character sprites, the illustration is a lot more smoother with more detail to them. One complaint that I have is that putting the new and old sprites in the same visual novel looks a bit odd. The art style and illustrations for the new character sprites significantly differ from the old sprites. In addition, comparing these old character sprites to their character model in the CGs such as Aoi Kanzaki displays a difference in art style as well. It seems that LiLiM DARKNESS just copied and pasted the old character sprite models into True Blue Short Story without any modifications. I think it would’ve been better to have all the old character sprites being redrawn from scratch to make the visual novel look more appealing.. In my opinion, this visual novel was pretty decent. While it is relatively short in comparison to its prequel, it does showcase some compelling stories by using NTR just like TRUE BLUE (2002). However, it would also be nice if there was another short story that hinted about what the secret organization was doing after the incidents from TRUE BLUE (2002). If that was added, then I’m sure it would thicken the plot even further while also filling out some of the plot holes from the prequel. If you really enjoyed playing the TRUE BLUE (2002) visual novel and you want to experience more, then I would highly recommend you to play True Blue Short Story.
