50 translated VNs you should read before you die

[Kaguya]

hmm i see I/O in that list,is that actually good? The plot seems weird xD

 

been hesitant to play it

I liked it. Would put it in the 25 best of this list, though I really like the genre.

k thanks for letting me know

never found a good enough review for it

[KuronX]

I'll definitely check out the ones on this list that I haven't played yet. I've played maybe about 5-6 on the list, and a few others that aren't on there. Surprised Grisaia isn't on there, Easily one of the best things I've ever read. But that's just my opinion

It is there, it's number 26. 

It is one of the best translated VNs, after all.

So, today, I just finished my 200th Visual Novel. 

That number. It's more number of times than Sam Witwicky has and will ever scream "OPTIMUS!" his entire life. Props to you Kaguya-san, for having such a dedication to visual novels.

 

Anyway, I've read only about 8-ish of them, and by this list of suggestions I shall no longer have such a thing as a 'free time with nothing to do'. Bookmarked, liked, and ready to embark on a journey of feels! Thanks a bunch

iv only read 16 off the list so far still got a long way to go...

[KeyFeels]

Ive read a couple of these... Unfortunately downloading time for me is super slow so I have quite a way to go.

[Nyanko]

I'm happy to see I/O made the list too, I'm really enjoying it so far.

[Eroknar]

Lots of good ones on the list... though I don't see Kono Oozora ni, Tsubasa wo Hirogete (If My Heart Had Wings) - which is another great one

I think it was kinda meh, though. Nice graphs, but that's about it- the story is not particularly remarkable or anything.

 

List updated- I added Ayakashibito.

[Izuru]

Is Ayakashibito Really Good?

I really liked it. Would put it in the upper 15 (maybe 10) top VNs of this list- though I'm biased towards it, since it's just the kind of VN that I like.

heard its kind of dark or sth? i dont like dark endings :c. thats why i'm hesitant to start it at this moment

 

and for another thing i never heard of it before the translation got finished xD

There are happy endings, but not every single character ends up well in them. There are also dark moments, but it's still a great VN.

[Izuru]

Oh Well I Like Dark Vn's So Its In My Download List Now

[Freestyle80]

Guess i'll start on that after finishing I/O. I can handle dark stuff if the endings are atleast satisfying. ;d

[Funyarinpa]

I am just saddened that 999 and Virtue's Last Reward are not on the list. Otherwise, you strike with another awesome list!

[Mr Poltroon]

I agree with that, yeah.

 

(I had something more to say but nevermind, it seems I was mistaken)

[Kaguya]

Ironically, the other list is more updated, since I'm changing that one with new releases.

[markbarkins]

Hey. Signed up for an account just to thank you. I had only read Fate/Stay Night and Katawa Shoujo when I stumbled across this. I just finished G Senjou No Maou and I loved it. So I've got 47 to go....

 

Thanks a lot!

[farispie]

I just finished I/O and man it is the most complicated VN I ever read. It's also full of great feels and I don't think I'll ever forget I/O. 

 

That being said, I'll now be playing Higabana 2nd night.

[Berilium]

I read this post long ago before I registered and I didn't say anything so I'll do it now. Thanks for the recommendations, you gave me plenty VN's to start from and its was really enjoyable.

[hussien-11]

I want to thank you for this thread, one of the reasons that made me register here. I discovered a lot of good works because of it.

[Kaguya]

Another update, I added Comyu since it's finally translated.

Akatsuki Works does some really amazing stuff. This is top 5 material, people.

May be because I'm a big chuuni fan, though.

[Tatsujin]

Out of the entire list, I'm planning to play few. Though Key's VNs like Little Busters and ReWrite were so boring. I simply and humbly dislike meaningless long useless scenes that will barely have any affect on the story - Little Busters demonstrates that very well. Though the end-result or at least the main story(s) are welcomed in Little Busters but I still didn't feel like playing again to finish the other arcs. I lost motivation to be honest. I only played Kyou and Tomoyo's arc in Clannad. I wanted to play more but the art is so bad in many corners. :/ In the end, I'm not a Key person. I'm an Age and Type-Moon person (Kimi ga Nozomu Eien, Fate universe, Muv-Luv universe) they do a better job at writing stories.

 

I give major props to Grisaia no kajitsu, Fate/Stay Night and Muv-Luv Alternative. Those are well worth the time.

 

Just know I voiced my opinions.
