Yoake Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 I'm Yoake. A friend directed me to this forum a few months ago, but I've only found the time to enter it now. I'm super new to visual novels and to anime, so I hope you treat me well. What I love the most are heartwarming stories. Specially romantic or heroic ones with an active protagonist. I'm not fond of depressing ones. I'm also interested in otome games, but I don't know much about them. If it's not too much trouble, I would love to get a few recommendations from you. Thanks a lot in advance, and sorry for the bother! Quote
Dergonu Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Hey welcome to the forum, it's nice to meet you! For heartwarming visual novels with little or no "depressing" parts, I would say Nekopara, Princess evangile, Shuffle! are all good. I don't play many otome games so can't help you there sadly Yoake 1 Quote
DarkZedge Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Welcome to the Fuwa forums, it's nice to meet you Being new or not isn's a problem..we all learn from each other and get along that way so feel free to ask anything you want or don't know. We're as friendly as it gets, those tastes are pretty similar to my own except for the otome genre and because i do like depressing or gorey and such Recommendations? Sure, no problem: Hoshizora no Memoria, Princess Evangile, Nekopara 0 & 1 , Shuffle!, Majikoi & Majikoi S , Koisuru Natsu no Last Resort. Among some i'd recommend for some of your tastes, if you need more i'll gladly provide aswell So welcome and enjoy your time here Yoake 1 Quote

Valmore Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Welcome! Glad you decided to become a member of the non-lurking crowd. Otome is pretty much a term that means the game company designed their product specifically to go after the girls market, and the product will be geared towards what the company thinks girls, in general, will like. Fanservice will be based on that accordingly as well. Most dating sims/visual novels you find on Google Play are considered otome. Yoake 1 Quote

I don't mind bad graphics or no "cute" moments for a nice story about overcoming adversity and the like! 1 minute ago, DarkZedge said: Welcome to the Fuwa forums, it's nice to meet you Being new or not isn's a problem..we all learn from each other and get along that way so feel free to ask anything you want or don't know.

Thanks for the info. Quote

I don't mind bad graphics or no "cute" moments for a nice story about overcoming adversity and the like! Hmm. I would say that the protagonist in princess evangile is pretty "strong" in a sense. I like him a lot. He overcomes a lot of hurdles, protects his loved ones when he has to and has a strong sense of morale and justice. He is also a jack of all trades, he knows how to do pretty much everything from past work experience and the likes. It is kind of a light read, just as the other 2 I recommended though. The protagonist in Nekopara is quite interesting as well, he is a young adult moving out from home to start his own bakery. Its a very "cute" VN, not very serious, but he does do something quite impressive on his own I guess. As for the protagonist in Shuffle! Eh... He is funny and I like him a lot but I wouldn't say he is a very "strong" protagonist in any way really. Quote

Zidan209 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 You will like more than hearthwarming over time. It comes with experience and the time till you run out of those that you like now xD. You don t need to believe, u won t even realise it. Anyway welcome here, and enjoy your stay! If you are talkative, visit the chat and u might join Quote
Valmore Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Yeah, if you search "otome games" on Google Play you'll get quite a few results. Most of them are romance games. Quote
ヤミハナ Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Hi Yoake, and welcome to the community! Do you have a waif- Wait, you know what. Nevermind that. You look like a lolicon and play otome games. So, no waifu stealing activity here, huh? And to recommend you some VNs which has an active protagonist........ughh, can't think of one. There's simply too much VNs in the market out there. As for the otome VNs, there's a lot at the Play Store/App Store (as which Valmore has mentioned) and for the list, here; https://vndb.org/v/all?q=&fil=tag_inc-542.tagspoil-0.lang-en&rfil= SajkoWolfe 1 Quote
Kawasumi Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Hi and welcome to fuwa. In terms of otome games, do you want BL games or just ones with a female protag? Quote

Kawasumi Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 I dont know much but do look up the game that these people translates, I have heard they should be quite good Also "no thank you!!" should be a really good VN storywise. I know there are some good otome games out there as well with girl protags, just cant find them atm Yoake 1 Quote
Valmore Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 I'm helping in writing an otome visual novel with a female protagonist, currently. Two actually, but neither is anywhere near completion. Quote
Flutterz Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 Welcome to the forums! Hope you enjoy your stay! Do you have a favourite VN? Have a moe: Quote
Nimbus Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 Welcome to the community, feel free to ask any questions you may have. As for recommendations, I'd suggest Konosora, also known as "If my Heart had Wings" Quote
