Funyarinpa Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 So what are some VNs that have some importance and give some emphasis to weather (preferably rain)? I have played Umineko as well as Remember11 and I know of Symphonic Rain but I don't know any others. Quote
Silvz Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 I guess Cartagra happens during the winter. Swan Song has a lot of snow after the earthquake, so I think you'd like it if you still haven't read. I don't think there is something similar enough to SR [which is sad] edit: I don't think it is exactly what you want, but the steampunk series [sharnoth and Inganock] have a lot of smoke in the air. Like, a lot. Quote

XReaper Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 read kusarihime and enjoy the cute little snowflakes Quote
Abyssal Monkey Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 I mean, this is literally what If My Heart Had Wings was about, but to beat a dead horse: its shit. Quote
mjriedstra Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 I agree that Konosora has a very strong element of weather, given that much of the story relates to ideal conditions for gliders and a weather phenomenon that only happens every few decades. I don't agree that it's bad, though. I enjoyed it. Well, most of it. Kotori's route in particular. Quote
ExtraMana Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 I believe the term you are looking for is 'pathetic fallacy'. Quote
Kelebek1 Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 Wasn't a weather tag on VNDB, but there is a rain tag which lists everything you mentioned - https://vndb.org/g1173?fil=tag_inc-1173.tagspoil-0;m=0;o=d;s=rating Quote
Nashetania Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 What about Hatsuyuki Sakura? Though that's not rain. Quote
Clephas Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 Seasonal relations are a lot more common than weather... for whatever reason. There are innumerable VNs that use a spot of rain to create a meeting or as a drama-enhancing element, but there are relatively few weather-themed VNs. Vermilion Bind of Blood (fog) Manatsu no Yoru no Yuki Monogatari (snow) AstralAir (snow) Monobeno (many vital scenes occur in the rain) Hikoukigumo no Mukougawa (a vital theme is the 'airplane cloud' that sometimes appears right before the rain) Quote
