Kawakami_Complex Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 A friend of mine just finished both of these VN's and was looking for something with a bit of action and comedy. But I haven't touched VN's in a while so was just wondering if anyone had any good suggestions? Quote
adamstan Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 Did he finish all Majikoi games? After original Majikoi there is S and A1-A5 (A3-A5 are unfortunately untranslated yet). Some consider Majikoi S more a fandisc than a sequel, but I enjoyed it nevertheless. I've also read A1 and A2 fandiscs, and can recommend them too. Quote
snowbell55 Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 It's not so much on the action front, but if they're looking for comedy, they could give Little Busters a try. Compared to Majikoi, it keeps the "friends" aspect and also does comedy really well. There are several scenes which had me pausing the VN to laugh for a few minutes. It's a very very good VN. Also just know that the description is a bit "bland" and doesn't really describe it so well. I'm not going to spoil anything, but suffice to say that it is very engaging and worth their while - especially given the desire for comedy. As mentioned by adamstan, there are also the (many) fandiscs + sequel for Majikoi if they want to stay with that story and world, and that wouldn't be a bad choice. I'll also toss in a recommendation for Utawarerumono. I haven't actually read it myself - I watched the anime - but it is on /r/visualnovels' recommendation chart, and reading it would allow one to go after the sequels: Mask of Deception and Mask of Truth respectively. I'm reading Mask of Deception at the moment and having a really fun time. The action isn't quite so prevalent, but when it does come it is definitely fun, and the VN (like Little Busters) has had me pausing to laugh several times. Both sequels are PS4 / PS Vita only though. Quote
adamstan Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 (edited) +1 for Little Busters. Somewhat different flavour than Majikoi, but great. Common route is really funny - and Masato can remind Gakuto from Majikoi One could also draw some parallels between Capt and Kyousuke. Edited April 16, 2018 by adamstan Quote
Orakana Newbie Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 (edited) Not really recommend it, but you can try Koiken Otome , You can find that "Action" there. or You can try Muv-Luv Alternative , maybe some robot can satisfy you ~ Edited April 17, 2018 by Orakana Newbie Quote
Benji Price Posted April 17, 2018 Posted April 17, 2018 If you're into samurai stuff and edo era you can try Chusingura. It also has very good humor. Also, Fate/Stay Night is a title that won't dissappoint you in any aspect. Quote
Kamukan Posted April 17, 2018 Posted April 17, 2018 Tsuyokiss have a good comedy, if you know Japanese, is a good VN to read, don't have many action too. 11eyes have action and comedy too, you should try. Quote
Kawakami_Complex Posted April 18, 2018 Author Posted April 18, 2018 Thanks guys for the suggestions, I'll forward them on! Quote
