Done with Mitsuki end, easily the best route and ending so far, I can see why this is considered the true end.
It didnt do a good job making me like Mitsuki more, she's a great heroine, but her own route only made me love Haruka more. So far Haruka is the best girl in the vn, but I havent done Ayu yet, so this might change

it is his prose cause it is the result of his effort and decisions
but this raises an interesting philosophical question. can possession be objectively ascribed? i don't think so. it's always context/convenience dependant. it makes sense to call it mao's prose instead of chatgpt or maruto's prose because (1) if anything goes wrong you can blame mao (2) cause mao was involved in directing the output and he's responsible for it.

The Nukitashi manga is selling astonishingly well and apaprently the anime did incredibly well too and they're making bank off of merch from it. So they're making tons of money.
That said, they have no currently announced projects other than the manga which is presumably a one-woman job. If they don't announce a new VN by the end of 2027 it'll have been 5 years, so they're probably dead.

If you only meant that it doesn't have the traditional monogamous route structure, then sure (though it's going to have that eventually). But otherwise I don't agree with you at all. I don't know how you could say that characters like Ayane / Maya /Noriko / Io / Kirin / Niki don't constitute romance.

Between Two Fires was a MASSIVE flop on release and took a decade to get a following and earn any money at all.
His fantasy books are almost exactly the same structurlly as Between Two Fires, just in a fantasy setting instead of a historical setting. Like the ONLY difference is that one is set in a fictional world and the other is set in nominally real history, other than that they're pretty much identical. It's even a fictional world that's very clearly medieval Europe with the names changed. He's just re-using his horror stories in a fantasy setting so they sell.
Also, it's a fantasy setting where women outnumber men like 20 to 1 like an isekai or something so that's fun. It even has an onnakishi noble lady knight heroine who takes everything too seriously. Sadly she's a lesbian, but MC does get a cute witch GF.

I think we're coming at this from two different directions, in which you're trying to qualify that it has a deeper level to it than that, which it certainly does; while I am trying to qualify that what occurs in the game in many instances does constitute romance, because, to me at least, saying something along the lines of "this isn't a romance game" gives the impression that the game does not include romance. That was my concern, rather than the idea that it should be recommended primarily as a "romance story." I mean, would you say LiL is a denpa game despite denpa not being the primary focus of the story? I would, because it still contains that in a significant way.

Isn't it redundant to have the two dashes next to each other like this

Are there trans goddess in this very thread o.O

>>580822291
Yes, but JUST calling someone hon is an insult. You have to add the adjectives to make it clear you're not ACTUALLY calling them hon.

interesting how manosabafags know a lot about tranny lingo...

I've never heard of a lot of the plays and books this game references. It feels perfect for a Subahibi esque meme reading list.

First dash is an engine-enforced pause. We retained all of them out of faithfulness to the original VN pacing and presentation

Japan fucking LOVES the blue bird of happiness my man, they reference it almost as much as they do those two fucking stars. You see it everywhere.

Oh absolutely. I get why some people would be put off - it starts a bit slow, has a horrible routelet problem, and does not have great live2d - but once it gets going it's fucking incredible. It absolutely deserves to be right up there in the best chuunige of all time conversation.

The Blue Bird
The Red Shoes
The Girl Who Trod on the Loaf

I assumed it'd stick to Disney Princesses but I guess not

>>580822690
Yeah. I never heard of A Dog of Flanders until an anime brought it up.

They mentioned that there was a Kaguya in the hostpial at some point. Neat that the author had a separate game about nipponese fairytales.

It's not. It's more gender bender as they lose their female parts after they take the shots to transform into guys.

I'm watching videos on melty blood instead of reading tsukihime. If the game makes me stim, I'll read the vinnie.
>>
>>580824051
But Melty Blood will spoil tsukihime...
>>
>>580824084
I'm just watching tournament sets in bathrooms and shit, not anything to do with lore or characters.
>>
>>580824195
Even some of the characters in Melty Blood are massive spoilers. They put vamp Noel in.
