Just finished Saya no Uta. Extremely good vn which had me hooked from beginning to the end.

I would have liked for them to touch a bit more on what makes Fuminori see what he sees. I guess his hallucinations were of the macabre appearance of his parents during the accident, but it wasn't stated. 

The constant perspective change was a bit annoying but not too bad.

The fact that we never saw Saya's true form was a true disappointment though.

I would have loved less open endings. The true ending was way too open. Fulfilling his final wish makes it sound like she was going to die, but things doesn't seem right for that. Fuminari isn't distressed and the "last gift" thing may be simply because she doesn't need to fulfill anymore wishes due to her changing the world. Simply put, way too open for my tastes.

 

 

Next up is Hanachirasu

I can understand why you would be disappointed about not seeing Saya's true appearance, but also keep in mind that this is clearly inspired by Lovecraft's type of horror. The things you can't see nor understand are often the most frightening :notlikemiya: Also it kinda forces you to see things from Fuminori's perspective.

I'm playing G-Senjou no Maou. Just finished Tsubaki's route and I'm about to start Kanon's. Then I'll go Shiratori into Haru. That's the recommended order anyway.

So far I'm enjoying it, though I feel like Tsubaki's route has some pacing issues.

Still reading Grisaia no Meikyuu/The Labyrinth of Grisaia. I finished everything (as I thought, so far, the two after Stories written by Fujisaki Ryuuta were the best moments of the VN...Makina :wahaha:)...except Yuuji's Past. On the same subject,, I was asking myself a question about this grand route (HEAVY SPOILER).

Spoiler

Did Yuuji really kill his father? Clearly, he tried to kill him by knocking him out with this bottle of alcohol. But I thought that his mother had finished this bastard with a kitchen knife. Am I wrong? The trait "Parricide" is just troubling me (see Yuuji's Character Profile on VNDB) :wacko:

P.S. : I'm so sad for Sachi. Such a wonderful character...with two mediocre/botched routes (Meikyuu and Kajitsu) :vinty:

Er... That's a tough question. Whether or not he actually did, he believes he did. I'm not sure if it's made clear either way, but I'm relying on my memory here.

I'll also add that I find Sachi's after story to be bloody brilliant.

Yeah, the idea of the bomb was cool. Unfortunately,  I did not like the writing quality (strange pace, predictability). And I think that Sachi was more interesting, more endearing in other after stories (same problem for me in Kajitsu) :mellow:

Seems like a common problem with VNs: Heroines often undergo 'character development' and change in their own routes. Sometimes, I really like the way the change. Other times, I feel they made the character lose what was so endearing about her. In Sachi's case, I happen to very much like her personality both before and after her route. So... she's great all around. :sachi:
But she does undergo huge changes in personality and the way she thinks, so I understand how one might end up thinking she's barely even the same character or that they preferred her before.

That's the bad ending. If you pick the other choice in her route, you'll have a better one.
And yeah, that is a pretty sick ending once you realise what's going on.

I've just reached what I suppose is the worst ending in CUPID. I've always focused on fairly lighthearted VNs and never delved into really heavy stuff before, so maybe I simply wasn't prepared for this one, but the amount of internal screaming going on right now in my mind and body is not something I've really felt before. :unsure:

That sounds like a great recommendation to me:meguface:

Seeing that the picture is very cute and the conclusion was very satisfying, I felt that I need to defend and attempted to explain the twist lol.

Spoiler

As for the situation, I must admit that it was very impossible seeing that both of the couple were woman. Although seeing the recent development in regard of in vitrio, I would say that the case could be still happened in real life, especially when it was seen as the solution for lesbian couple in order to have a child. Then again they're in Japan and apparently it's quite strict in regard of lesbian couple for have a daughter, so I don't know if the method was accepted as of now at Japan. But then again, seeing that Sakuya's route was more or less have same twist as Grisaia Michiru's route, I would say it's not a stretch that it could be happened because the twist was more than enough to put that into sci-fi category.

As for why they have Sakuya as Askua and Kyouko daughter with the memory intact, well it's more or less commonly used trope in Japanese anime. Therefore, the only thing that need to be guessing is that of how the couple was could be able to have the daughter in the first place, and it's not explained whether Sakuya here is adopted like Vivio from Nanoha or just born from them in vitro. Speaking about Nanoha, I would say that Nana Mizuki should voicing Asuka if only for the casting gag lol.
