Previous thread: >>50725541This thread is for the discussion of Japanese visual novels read untranslated in Japanese.What are you playing? What are you looking forward to? What have you finished?
>>50772006Is this one actually any good? I love May-be Soft games, but I feel like I'd be blue balls to hell reading this.
>>50772014Not sure, I just installed it today and booted it up to make sure it works. I’ll probably read it next month.
i will whitenoise boushi sekai
>>50772006Reposting from the previous thread, but for anyone here who has read sumaga, how do you unlock the other two H-scenes for spica's route? I thought you'd get it by the end of the route but I guess not.
Read Grisaia and Majikoi for the first time this year. Both done now. Perhaps I will lose oldfag cred for not having read them before, but I will lose even more I think for not getting why they were so popular. They were fine. Very long. But I didn't really care much for them, can't begin to imagine why they were a "big deal". Slightly nervous that when I crack open Muv-luv it's going to be the same deal.
>>50773624Historical context is always important.Majikoi had the most expensive VA cast of all time at release, every single person in it was huge at the time and many still are.
>>50773624judging by the way you talk you don't seem like someone who appreciates fun so i'm not surprised those fell flat for you, but let this be a good reminder that popularity or hype don't always equate to quality. i never touched muvluv though so good luck with that, you'll probably need it
>>50773624>Slightly nervous that when I crack open Muv-luv it's going to be the same deal.i felt that way when i read itone of the most overrated games ever
>>50773624even as a longtime mechahead, i thought muv-luv was super overrated. it’s been like 13 years since i’ve read it tho.
>>50773774>>50773785Samefag.
>>50773792do you find it that hard to believe that more than one person has an opinion that differs from yours?
>>50773798Samefag. Not fooling anyone.
>>50773052I think that they are bonus scenes that you unlock after finishing the game.

https://x.com/Frill_Official/status/2034540868594717093New Frill soon after many delays.
>>50773624I'm sorry if you expected them to be like super special Kamige and ended up disappointed. They are just fun, mixed-quality VNs that a lot of people read at the same time and ended up getting a lot of discussion.They're extra popular in the west because both titles' English patches ended up having a lot of translation drama, so when they were finally fully available in English people were really, really excited about it. There's no need to go into the details on that here though.I will say that the experience of both VNs is very different if you go into them completely blind. If you aren't familiar with the writers or companies and start them fully expecting to read a fairly typical moege, suddenly being hit with all of the things which make them unique is an unforgettable experience. I think for a lot of the diehard fans that's a part of the reason they like it.
>>50774654Yeah I definitely didn't think it sucked, I just had expectations I maybe shouldn't have. Just the vague idea of "this is one of the big ones" and no idea why. Majikoi was definitely the better of the two. Not to say Grisaia sucked. But I was definitely more underwhelmed there. And the westaboo shit was certainly something.
muv-luv is peak mid

>>50777437>10以上に分岐するエンディングtoo many
>stuck at island>stuck at YorinoI can't get myself to finish those and at the same time I can't start another VN before I finish those 2...
>>50778000You are aware that "Deep One" by Nameless contains the full text of "Deep onE" by Nana Star, correct?Unless you have a particular reason to read the old unfinished version, it strikes me that it would be much easier to read "Deep One" instead. It currently has three seeds on cat website.
Someone from here recommended me a while ago to watch the Amagami anime after I finished the game. I finished the last episode yesterday. As a standalone series it's great, but as an adaptation I found it disappointing. The last few episodes were especially hard to watch as they had to greatly simplify a certain heroine's character to fit the four-episode limitation. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone who liked her route, otherwise it's fine.
>>50778373i guess that was me. glad you enjoyed it as a standalone series, to me it felt like the production team put their hearts into it but i guess it's hard to work within the limits of four episode arcs. how bad is the quality downgrade for tsukasa?
>>50774143Sex with my sister
>>50778380Yeah, as an anime I really liked it. They really captured the heroines' personality with the EDs, Morishima's being upbeat rock, Nanasaki's jazz fusion, etc. Sae's especially is still stuck in my head. As to Tsukasa's route, I actually think the main issue was that it was impossible to make her motivations and development make sense in only four episodes without exaggerating her character. She warms up way too quickly in the beginning, and by the end she acts so emotionally it makes her seem mentally unstable. The last two episodes are basically an anime original. To be honest, they gave me the impression anime Ayatsuji has BPD or some other mental illness. Age regression is a symptom of mental disorder. Of course, nothing remotely similar to that happens in the VN. She does "delete" one of her "personalities" in the bad ending, but the result is completely different. Anyway, it didn't seem like the same character. I could tell the scenario writer was talented by the way she transposed some of the scenes, especially in Kaoru's episodes, but clearly she prioritized making the four episodes entertaining over maintaining her character faithful to the VN. It's still a good anime if you've never played the game.
https://vndb.org/v61334I see the artist, neurons start shooting fireworks but then I read the description and I just feel disappointed. Fuck the devs for doing this to me
>>50778515What's bad about it?
It's joppin time
The relationship between the MC and her is the most interesting thing I’ve read in a long time… I can’t even fit it into any clear archetype or anything like that. They hate each other, they respect each other, they try to kill each other... on numerous occasions. They exchange information, keep things from one another, ask for favors, trade insults, joke around and laugh together, manipulate each other for personal gain etcetc.

https://vndb.org/t24787Damn Yorhel died. RIP.Wonder what happens to vndb now.
>>50780112>Wonder what happens to vndb nowcrunchyroll will buy it :)
>>50780112Holy shit, he was posting normally just a few days ago, what the hell happened?
I hope floodtroon becomes the new owner.
>>50780112RIP.
>>50780238make /vn/db great again>>50780112it's owari...
>>50780112rest in peace, guy was truly invaluable
>>50780112God damn, rip, he made an amazing website.
>>50780112>Wonder what happens to vndb now.best case? one of the mods takes his place as the owner, and then it's either 1. total troonout 2. new golden age 3. everything stays the same until asi wipes the humanity in a couple of yearsprobable case? site dies in a month because nobody pays server costs and all passwords and shiet are lost, then we'll have fork wars and and dozen of clones popping up, one worse than another. kinda like what happened to the switch emulation sceneworst case? the family sells it to crunchyroll or worse and we'll have total enshittification and normiefication of the medium
>>50780296>everything stays the same until asi wipes the humanity in a couple of yearsNot even AGI is happening, floodtroon.
>>50780316*taps the benchmark memelines chart*
>>50780296>the family sells it to crunchyrollWhy would they want it? People that use Crunchy are retards that can barely read and only watch dubs.
>>50780296I expect the 3 minus the apocalypse.2 doesn't make sense and 1 would be the same as killing the website if it's about virtue signaling by banning anything spicy from the entries.
>>50780323>Why would they want it?easy money, you can shill anime shit too. ties with the publishers, etc.... vns are still very niche, a proper and well coordinated psyop campaign backed by infinite money could make it the new anime with enough effort. filmic 2h sfw novels are the future
>>50780341>easy moneyHow? It's not like vndb has any products its selling, unless you think Crunchyroll are going to turn it into FANZA but for EOPs where they can read VNs in the browser.
>>50780353i don't mean it's gonna be specifically crunchyroll, might be the current owners of mal or similar. point is it will end up in ads and total enshittification of the website, starting with a (((modern))) ui
vndb will just continue as is
>>50780353not him, but FAKKU might buy it and team up with dlsite to turn it into a fucking storefront
>>50780341>>50780378You're both retarded. Either the site gets picked up by the other moderators, it lapses, and/or someone else rehosts it with very slight potential for a fork wars. There's really no option of it being valuable enough to any mainstream because VN's are not and never will be mainstream in the west. And thank fucking god for that.
>>50780458>because VN's are not and never will be mainstream in the west.lil bro... your tiktok reps?
>>50780461I don't consider tiktok zoomies bitching about Saya no Uta people. Why do you?
>>50780466because i live on planet earth
>>50780468Generally speaking in most places on Earth the braindead are considered to be corpses, not people.
>>50780478zoomers aren't braindead, they just have lower iq/attention span that millennial because of a mix of societal/parenting issues
>>50780488>I'm not braindeadYeah yeah.
>>50780488I didn't know this thread was your personal blog.
>>50780492i'm older than you lil bro. just take the L for your erroneous claim that "VN's are not and never will be mainstream in the west" while at the same coping that "b-b-but tik-tok doesn't c-c-count!"
>>50780682it's an ontopic post, kys shitposter
Huh, I thought the zoomie was coming from that /a/ thread that got moved here but he was shitting up this thread slightly before. Figured that's where it came from but I suppose that's not the case? Either way, it's a shame what happened and I hope someone can inherit the website, and not let the cockfighting wars over what should and shouldn't be on the website drive them crazy. You guys should also back up the site too for safety's sake, once the limit-rate gets refreshed. It's only a couple dozen gigabytes so it's not even one of those things where you can pretend like someone else will hoard data you care about for (you) when it's the size of a couple of games.
>>50780112how many times did he take the science juice?
>>50780729>huh, i'm schizophrenic?>It's only a couple dozen gigabytesi did except for screenshots/character pics>>50780744this
>>50780466What kind of logic is that? It doesn't matter who you consider "people", that's not how it works, retard.
>>50780881shh, let xim cope
>>50780685>VN's are not and never will be mainstream in the westThey never will be because society is increasingly becoming asexual and VNs are a sexual medium by nature.
>>50780914>VNs are a sexual medium by nature.ok unc, but sfw filmic novels are the future, deal with it
>>50780915Please jump off a bridge
>>50780927you'll still live on planet earth schizo. seek meds because you are in for a wild ride (the sfw future)
>>50780915this is the eroge thread and zoomies can't read
>>50780933ok but we were talking about vns in the west, not eroge specifically, lil zoomie who can't read
>>50780936Self inserting is inherently emotional and sexual, VN authors put in a lot of boring slice of life scenes so that you force yourself into the scene. None of those zoomers can read a long VN, they wouldn't enjoy it because they have a strong emotional barrier between themselves and the world, which is why they're asexualistic and can only LARP short stuff like Saya no Uta
>>50780951>VN authors put in a lot of boring slice of life scenes
>>50780951weird cope herr coomer, also i wouldn't have used a case of zoomers like an EROGE to prove how zoomers are "asexualistic", but that's just be
>>50780956>herr coomeri'm not stupid enough to read it for life lessons at least
>>50780729Gacha shit still wont be allowed because that was Yorhel will and gachas are not vns, just lesser entertainment for faggot zooms
Uh y'all forget that vndb has a ton of English vns? DDLC is on there it's mainstream
>>50780973I don't disagree with that personally. I feel like FGO is the biggest tentative but even that's stretching it, and if I had to fight for something the last thing I'd die for would be gachashit. What I meant is that having gay little retard fights over what is or isn't considered a VN for the purposes of the website is something that shouldn't be taken so seriously it drives a presumed new team insane which is a possibility I very much see happening, much like it does for the average person screaming in the forums about Sengoku Rance or Ace Attorney being exceptions so why can't [x]. It's all good fun.
>vndb creator diedTotal EOP death. JOP victory.
>>50781421not cool, zech-dono...
>>50781421Vndb is literally a JOP website tho
>>50781479>made by a pigskin westerner who doesn’t speak japanese>all threads and reviews are in english>filled with garbage EVNshitLol, lmao even. Go back to /vn/ if you’re not using EGS.
>>50781492What's the point on LARPing that you don't use vndb?EGS is literally only useful for reviews.
>>50781500We've had issues over the last few years with a few people who only come here to shitpost about "JOP vs EOP" without actually reading anything. I don't know exactly why this started to happen, but it probably has something to do with the VN industry stagnating and older posters dying off or leaving for greener pastures.
>>50781519>I don't know exactly why this started to happenYou know exactly why it happened. This board has taken more blows to the face than a heavyweight boxer. /jp/ as a whole entered the catatonic state 5 or 6 years ago and now all that's left are the maggots devouring the corpse that's been dead for... wow, almost a year now. If you'll allow me to break free from the analogy too, there's also the perma-/v/thread and the /a/ thread that just got moved here. Shits fucked.
>>50781479Yorhel's last words say otherwise though

nobody who has interacted with zoomers thinks visual novels are going to become mainstream. their LARP'ing will start and end with Saya.
Can zoomers and aoomers even read? I thought there was a genuine literacy crisis?
>>50784664only the women read and they read porn. the rest are reactionaries who read roman history or mishima
>>50784675>reactionaries who read roman history or mishimaI thought they only listened to podcasts and video essays and didn't even actually read that shit.
>>50784675>>50784757Something like 95% of people under 23 exclusively 'read' audiobooks. It's a whole new world, I tell ya.
>>50784887>95%surely an exaggeration
>>50784889What, are you accusing me of reading an article six months ago and not remembering the exact numbers? I'd never.
Are y'all buyin'?
>>50784984why would I buy merch for a porn game that doesn't have porn?
>>50784985You can cut a hole in the bottom and slide an onahole in it and fuck it and pretend the vn has h-scenes

>>50789279>h-manga about the slime girl by datethis was so good, the mix of harem and the girls retaining their personalities was very hot
>>50787735
>>50789498I hope the full game is a lot better than the trial.
This might be a turbo retarded question, but is Sengoku Koihime an actual sequel to the previous games, or does VNDB just list it like that because they're set in the same universe?
I'm trying to play 魔法少女ノ魔女裁判 on PC with a PS5 controller but the directional controls are fucked so I can't operate any of the menus. Anyone have a similar problem/know a fix?
>>50790460do you really need to read a VN on your computer with a controller?
>>50790466I have a home theater setup where my PC uses my LG CX as a secondary display. I wanna get comfy in bed and read from there
https://kaguya.io/@zechAdd me on Kaguya and I'll add you guys back
>>50790739the first funny antizech shitpost
>>50790460If you can disable controller input in the settings, you can reassign the buttons with a program like AntiMicro.>>50790466Try it, it's really nice.
>>50790328It's not a sequel in the sense that you have to have read the original Koihime games before Sengoku.The basic premise is that the MC of Sengoku Koihime is the nephew of the previous MC, and so there's a lot of references to his massive number of aunts and then at the very end he summons the weapons of the koihime girls to help him in a pinch.So it's very minor dialogue references and one very small cameo, but nothing you need to have read the previous VN to get.
>>50790460Just map your PS5 controller with Steam Input duh
>>50789498It feels like Crystalia is contractually obligated to include white hair heroine in every game lol
>※ BBSPINKは2026年3月16日時点でアクセス不能。RIP
>>50791540And practically all of them are the main heroine
Terrible design.
>>50790460I played through it with a Dual Sense. You'll need to use steam input if you want to get it to work. I used the most popular community Dual Sense config. It was still a little awkward as you still need mouse input for menus which is mapped to the trackpad.
>>50792248we need more designers willing to take risksdesigns are getting stale
>>50792283You can thank the gacha games for exhausting the possible permutations for chara designs to the point that we have to resort to multicolored hair bullshit. Ironically though the best designs are still the simple ones yet doesn't feel generic and those are lightning in a bottle chance.
>>50792711>resort to Multicolored hair is the best
>>50792821...said no one ever.
>>50792711Simple, effective designs are the best but if you ask any zoomer these days, they're going to tell you how much they jerk off to multi colored AI generated slop and that simple designs are piss ugly.
I like gradient hair on anime girls, but stuff like >>50792248 is pretty bad.
>>50792711Agreed. I miss the days when green and pink were considered a weird color for hair. I like heroines with natural hair colors the best, so the two-tone designs that are getting popular recently really put me off.
>>50792711>You can thank the gacha games for exhausting the possible permutations for chara designsNo>You can thank the gacha games for frying the brain of zoomers and now that eroge panders to zoomers they want the zoomer audienceftfyNothing is stopping them from releasing simply stuff like pic related, but whether zoomers like it or not is another matter since they are now the majority of consumers with the money.

Anyone else reading Yuukan Madame Club? Liking it so far. What do you guys think?
>>50809895I won't be reading games with AI art.
>>50810030Who asked?
>>50810030Enjoy not reading anything released after 2024.
AI art is fine by me as long as it it's touched up by humans. It's the ugly shading that repels me.
>>50810030Most of modern artists with jobs use aislop, the reason why you don't notice it is because they actually know how to draw from before aislop came out so they can fix the hallucinations from ai
>>50810030whatever he did, the "real" skin and shading looks disgustinghttps://t.vndb.org/sf/02/243402.jpg

>>50810271I've learnt that, from decades of consuming hentai, people who draw anus that particular way love analAbsolutely fucking disgusting mate
>>50810030i for one hope that they all do start using it, but i dont ever want to know about itif a 50 cg game can now suddenly have 200 cgs with the same or similar quality then go for it
>>50811193reminds me of that game where mc went to a school full of his imoutos
>>50811340That's literally the game he posted, anon.
>>50809895I've been playing it a bit, but I'm not enjoying it much. I don't understand a game that starts off with sounding and shitting on dicks and BR incest chickened out from making the main heroine MC's mother and made her his stepmom instead.It's kind of a lottery whenever you start an h-scene of if it will be fappable or not and a lot of the tim eit's not.
>>50810271Looks incredibly appealing to me. What’s wrong with it?
Mahou shoujo inshuu mura trailerhttps://youtu.be/UULC_Wo-xLI?si=_-I8dOEzhKUKiTAv
>>50811698I don't get マザーファッカー VNs. If the point is the drama and stigma and forbidden fruit of a mother-son relationship, why chicken out and make it non-BR?It's like, Haharanman, it's a fantasy setting, one of the protagonist's allies has magical healing superpowers that can cure any illness or injury. It almost seems like that character was put in the story for the express purpose of giving the MC the thumbs up to make a guilt-free incest baby without fear of fucking their genome. And yet the mom main heroine is non-BR.
>>50812556because japanese "men" are pussies

The girl was molested on the train and developed a sexual paraphilia where she gets excited every time she gets on the train. She stopped going to school and spends the whole day masturbating. She asks to have sex with the protagonist (who already has a girlfriend).

>>50814760most likely take the piromizupill
>>50817069there is no ecchi in first two memoff so nothing should be cut
>>50817787>there is no ecchi in first two memoff so nothing should be cutSometimes the switch version would also censor any mention of drugs or heavy themes just like what happened with NSO

>>50819323Assuming Koimasu is accurate to real life, apparently Azarashi-soft acts as a publisher and provides support/funding for a lot of microstudios to help them get their games out the door. I think purplesoft does something similar.
For some unknown reason, at a certain point in the visual novel Okiba ga Nai! https://vndb.org/v3098 , after meeting a specific character, it would take me back to the title screen for no apparent reason. I tried several different things and even wondered if I had downloaded a demo instead of the full game. I also checked the official website for updates, but found nothing. Finally, after asking the AI, I found this page: https://www.akabeesoft2.com/support/acti_patch.html#a_patch , and after applying this fix, I was able to progress. I'm sharing this in case anyone else has a similar problem someday; personally, this is the first time it's happened to me.

>>50826432I wouldn't want a KnM spiritual sequel for a little while. What made it special is that the last thing you were expecting from Ensemble after 10 years straight of almost exclusively straight trapge was a legitimately great chuunutsuige.
i saw this on the flavor of the year extension thingturns out its was what i was played this day a decade ago
>>50828144Why are they still selling it for fucking 40 dollars 10 years later?
>>50828144>i saw this on the flavor of the year extension thingIsn't that basically just a popularity + date filter? Doesn't seem like much point, oh wow the most popular game in [year] was the key or type-moon or nitroplus game that released that year.
>>50828149Are there any companies that put their VNs on good sales consistently? I rarely see more than 20-30% off at most.
>>50828149It's currently 1,000 yen on Fanza, so 6 USD.
>>50828152I mean this

>>50829592there's always market for sfw kidsloppa
>>50829592Too bad the upscaling looks like shit.
>>50829592i can't believe dumb ZOOMERS are playing it with cropped cgs in 16:9 lmfao
>>50829592I might actually get it. I tried the ps2 version but I really hate using emulators and dropped it early.
>>50829636>I really hate using emulatorsI don't get it. Doesn't it just end up being basically the same thing as reading a PC VN like normal? What's there to hate?
>>50830337Garbage scaling, annoying interfaces for the emulators themselves, sometimes broken audio, and needing to fuck around with setting binds. I don't play old console games in general so I never bothered putting in the time and effort to make emulators usable. The only game I can remember finishing on an emulator was akai ito and I hated the experience.

>>50830640Heres your Jocko
>>50830803moe~
>>50830358holy skill issue
>>50830363It's a typo
>>50830864bro isn't that wrong about scaling you knowon ps2 you have shit running in 600x440, which also have garbage text rendering even in native resolution, which means no matter what scaling you're going to use (cunny, lanczos, integer) shit is going to look like shityou might get away with maybe running it on a small enough screen with integer scaling (or phone screen lol)other option is to use wonky crt filter or just add scanlines, which makes it look somewhat okay but kills gamma instead
>>50831108>zoomer doesn't know what shaders arelmfao, embarassing
>>50831108borderline impossible to make ps2 and psp stuff to look good enough due to low native render resolution
>>50831117lol, the absolute state of tech illiteracy itt
>>50831114I know about shaders, tried more than a few, but I don't believe it looks that good compared to properly upscaled pc version
>>50831129shader issue
>>50831127post examples of good ps2 upscaling
>>50831137>upscalingagain, you need SHADERS, not upscaling. CRT royale if you have a gpu, if not customized lottes
>>50831165Okay post some good examples then.
>>50830358I had a computer die two weeks ago and had to reinstall PCXS2 from scratch. I gave it the bios, plugged in my DualShock, increased the rendering resolution, and I was done. It took less than five minutes. Didn't even need to bind anything.There's nothing difficult or time-consuming about it.I've actually been reading mostly console and handheld VNs recently because they're just so much easier to download and play. Get the game from archive.org, it downloads in two minutes, cut and paste it into my games directory, and it's ready to go. No waiting on a torrent or wading through Anime-Sharing's disgusting DDL swamp, no installation or patching or troubleshooting. It's so fucking fast and easy that I can try out ten console VNs in the time it takes me to get one PC game working.
>>50831221google them. or tell me the game you need, i'll make my own screenshot just for (You)

>>50831524skill issue, it should NOT be looking like thatgoddamn it fucking monkeys with smartphones, let me download a ps2 kino and show you how it's done
>>50831524also just for reference, shaderglass is pretty meme, you are better off with reshade. the internal resolution is EXTREMELY important
>>50831544>reshadeso this is supposed to look good now?
>>50831544slightly better at 4k, but still far from good and setting internal res at anything bigger than 2x completely breaks it
>>50831599forgot pic
>>50831572>>50831607you are supposed to change setting to match the resolution, and disable all the upscalers...can you simply put integer scaling + lottes crt from INSIDE pcsx2? it should be therethis is how mine looks and i'm on an 800p screen lmfao. it can't NOT look good at 4k

>>50803327>you need Windows 98 or ME for this to work, it'll crash constantly even on XP (believe me I tried).Tried to read it today, and even using compatibility mode with for 98 still didn't allow it to work... did you download an emulator or something?
>>50813929You don't want having a whore mom that you can fuck?
I just want to double-click an .exe and shit runs.I don't want to have to do tech support to read a fucking book.
>>50833490Your breast bet would probably be a VM or something of that nature. Windows' compatibility mode is a piece of shit.
Thinking of giving the Biman series another try. Is it fine if I skip #2.
