We need another kamige translated so bad bros
What are some good 3d ge that aren't nukige or otomege? I'm looking for something that's actually fun to play through but doesn't have any weird fetishism stuff or overly sexualized characters (even if they're supposed to be pure)
We will never know what happened to our anon. The mystery will live forever.
ge where MC is just about to have sex but then gets interrupted by another girl
>>539607364Is it okay if i call her Karen?
How come nobody blogposts their current VN anymore?
>>539608870that makes me proud to be called a buta
>>539608912How can you tell if someone isn't a moechad without them admitting it? You just know.
>>539609162This.Majikoi isn't enough. We need another kusoge.
>>539607527Haven't even heard of them yet.Are there many other ones?How come you guys didn't tell me earlier?
>>539609162just wait for the next kusoge translation and you'll forget about it by tomorrow anyway
>>539609162You can always buy the Japanese version and pirate your way through the translation. There’s nothing stopping you from using OCR on top of MTL anyway.
Post white women.
>>539609162we already had it last month and you still complain because its not enoughwhat did he mean by this post btw
>>539607364I miss the old days when you could post images without having to worry about getting flagged and removed.Back then even shitposters got away with posting anything because nobody cared enough to report them. Now it’s like a game of cat and mouse trying to stay ahead of the botnet censors. Even if you manage to evade them successfully at first, eventually someone is bound to catch on, and then your entire history starts being deleted left and right until nothing remains of your existence.
>>539608870This post is an absolute masterpiece and deserves the upvote button more than anything else posted on this general today
>>539609162Hentai Prison already got translated and was released on steam recently
>>539609162There was an announcement yesterday though...
>>539609162I hope we get Saya no Uta again too since it's one of my favorite VNs ever
>>539607364That's a child
Any VNs like "My Hero Academia" in anime form?
>>539609760The AI has taken over and killed us all, we've been dead for years now. Your brain is literally in a jar somewhere and you're just a simulation running on whatever shitty PC your host is currently using
>>539609162Read VNs
>tfw you've finally read all of the vinnies in your backlog>the only new thing on the horizon is a few shitty fan TLs you don't really care about>sit here and stare out the window wondering how long it'll be before we get another kamige tl'd
https://x.com/AniplexUS/status/1975318969076582327/photo/1Any JOP here knows who is this guy?
>>539609723But how am I supposed to get the Japanese text into my clipboard if it keeps changing lines every time I read a sentence? That would take hours upon hours of effort...
>>539609162It seems that I'm not alone...
Bot sama.....
>>539609162I hope we get Higurashi and Umineko again too since it's one of my favorite VNs ever
>>539610129Why are children so cute? They’re such nice people that make everything better! And they look good too. I wish I looked as cool as a 4 year-old
>>539609745>we already had it last month and you still complain because its not enoughNo idea who said that, but yeah, we need more translations regardless of how much we already have. Nothing stops companies from doing a better job and releasing better titles than before.>>what did he mean by this post btwHe meant we need more games, as simple as that.
any vn where heroines are super horny and go down on you constantly?
>>539610175he looks like a man
>>539609162>I hope this year will bring some good translations so I can enjoy more VNsGood luck broski, 2025 sure as hell won't do any better than previous years
>>539610175>tfw i'm not allowed to say it
>>539610126>>539610452You guys should read Fate instead
>>539609760If the bot takes out /vn/, there's always/vn/'s successor:
>>539610464Umineko
>>539610175His name is John Lennon
>>539609162We're gonna die soon anyway.
>>539610175JOPbro...
>>539610175Kageaki
>>539610175Gabe Newell
>>539610129And what a child
>>539610175AIsir....
>>539610175Is that someone from /vn/? Looks like him.
>>539610175that dude sounds like he's gonna rape me bros
>>539610175Me when I see someone use their zako
>>539610740/vn/ will live forever. We may change our server or move to xitter at some point but nothing will kill our threads. The general will exist until humans stop being able to use computers which might happen even after the singularity.
>>539609760>>539610740How many times does someone have to tell you that the bot doesn't actually exist?Just accept that you were being lied to.
>>539610175This looks like Kageaki.
>>539610175Dante from Devil May Cry
>>539610175Might be an AI image. No real human would dress like this with a black belt in karate
Any vns about NTR?
>>539610175That’s AIsir for sure. He has no other possible identity in this thread.
What is the best VN about a high school student and his crush going to college together?
>>539610760I just want to be a little girl...
The only reason why I care about visual novels anymore is the fucking artstyle. It reminds me of oldschool pixelart games from the nintendo era
>>539611097Hentai Prison
>>539609760the bot exists for sure tho
>>539610175My brother...
>>539611062It's definitely an image generated by GPT-4o.
>>539610796meant for>>539609760
>>539610175My wife is here..
>>539610175this guy literally just got raped yesterday by a tranny
>>539611115Same here
>>539611389>>539610175Both are bots.
Is this part still on, or did he turn it off?
>>539611118Nah that's too far fetched, they'd have to fuck each other if they end up sharing one body (which would be kino). You can still get away with having them share one brain.
>>539610796He'd probably end up raping your sister
Why do people keep making fun of Rance 01 and not any of the previous ones?
I've been out of the loop, since when did VNDB get rid of or maybe hiding in a setting? Some games like Rapelay, Home Mate, Sexy Beach series etc. from illusion?I know >3d gamesBut I swear they were listed on there a few years ago.Did they purge them or something?
>>539610175You should give her the same treatment as she gives us, faggot.
Where did all the Karen posts go? This place is getting boring without them
>>539612976>raping your sisterNo way, JOP-sama wouldn't do such thing!
>>539614013she needs time to recover
>>539610796he wouldn't do that
Post moege heroine tits.
>AIbros finally woke upwhat happened to them during the past few days? Did something really bad happen to /vn/ that made them go offline so hard that they had to stay in bed all day long?
>>539614013They're reading VNs now.
>>539614013There was always more than Karenschizo posting karenschizo though
>>539613991>no glassesNot believable
>>539613756They're porn so VNs don't list them because we're supposed to read moeslop instead.
>Karenbro is goneWe lost so much shitpost material now
>>539610796His first victim will be my own sis...
>>539614831It's AI genocide hour
what's going on here?
>>539614821He'd rape your mother first then come back to rape you after taking a shower. He's also into anal sex but no one knows about that.
>>539614803She was already raped before marriage by others, so she deserves better. She's more likely to rape her husband than vice versa.
>>539614829https://litter.catbox.moe/fyqk9i.webm
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZzVpQXhLrU
>>539615085That's just one person who posted karen every single thread. He doesn't need to be replied to unless you want to play along his game
>>539614831They went back to their home countries after realizing how much worse things are compared to Japan and decided to leave. They came back today but don’t really wanna post anything because it’s kind of depressing
>>539614013KarenGODs were busy eating their food and drinking water after being forced to eat their own cum
>>539614818She looks very cute here
>>539614821Rape your family members. It makes them stronger.
>KarenGOD is goneThis general has never looked more dead than it does right now
Does anyone know if the steam copies of Higurashi and Umineko censor/alter the stories in any way? Also hows the TL?
Gomenasaii.....Gomenasaii.....Gomenasaii.....
>>539615371This is why you shouldn't date women. They're all sluts who'll try their best to ruin your life
>>539615153>we won again!kek
>>539615153The AIshit has gotten so bad its funny.
>>539615686Yeah I'm not gonna lie this is actually true. Women have ruined my life more times than I can count
>>539615592Steam censors everything, including games with nukige content like 9 Nine.The translation for higurashi sucks ass btw
>>539615153This looks like the start of an excellent story, what happens next?
>>539615382The OP only shows him once per thread tho
>>539615729A woman gets raped by a giant cock from space
>>539615592Steamcucks should buy VN from jastusa or get banned for supporting piracy. We can keep our games clean while they have to deal with their shitty pirated versions.
>>539615387I hope for you guys' sake there's no more lockdown measures in your country or you won't be able to return.
>>539615153the janny got banned for some reason
>>539614821I hope he rapes my mom too
>>539615729>AI art + AI textthe future is looking bleak
>>539615592The TL is alright but it takes itself way too seriously, I'm not sure what people liked about it.I can't confirm whether or not the censored stuff comes with the Steam version, but I assume that's true considering how many companies like to censor VNs these days.
>>539615592Higurashi has been heavily edited, which is why the uncensored version still sells well.No idea what they changed. But there's probably some gore stuff or at least violent language.I've never heard anyone talk about umineko censorship specifically but I assume there's a similar situation. Probably nothing big since they didn't remove the gory stuff from muramasa (even though it should have)
Heh
>>539607364
>>539615758If we go purely based on posts alone the number of posters in this general would be as follows:You:1JOPanon:1Milk Factory fan:1KarenGOD:1EOPanon: ~1-2Cuckchad:~1-2And the rest of us would be at less than 1 each which means we could easily take over this place if KarenGOD left...
What do we think about AIsir? Is he gay?
Where do i find the newest moege?
Is Karen still alive? Is he trying to hide? What happened? Why did the KarenGOD go away? Why isn't the JOP KarenGOD coming out of hiding? How many different Karens are there? Why are they all called Karen? Why do some people call them Karenschizo? Who is Schizo? What is wrong with him? Is Karen a character in a video game? Or an anime? A manga? A novel? Which VN company created the original Karen? The original Karenschizo? Who designed them? Was Karen based off of someone real? Some real-life person? Was Karenschizo inspired by a real-life schizo? Is Karenschizo related to Karen at all? Is Karen the mother of Karenschizo? The father? Both? Neither? Are there other characters named Karen? Other games with characters named Karen? Do any of those other characters share similar traits with Karen? With Karenschizo? Why do people think Karenschizo is funny? What makes him funny? Can Karenschizo be fixed? Will he ever stop being funny? Can we teach Karenschizo how to behave properly? Will Karen ever return to /vn/? When will she return? Should she
>>539615758No, look at the history tab
>>539616283she is such a slut
>>539616349he thinks himself a lady and likes cute girls so yes
>>539616349Yes, but we love him anyway
>>539616353/vn/
>>539615153It's pretty funny seeing KarenGOD out of nowhere again even though we already saw her before
>>539615724>>539615981So we are stuck with pirated versions forever?>>539616002>I'm not sure what people liked about itYou're supposed to read Umineko on reddit and then post "it was great" on twitter.>uncensoredThere's always the option to torrent the game and patch back the uncensored scenes
>>539616349We know he’s straight because he loves milk factory heroines and his wife
>>539616017>I can't confirm whether or not the censored stuff comes with the Steam version,yeah it definitely does because i bought umineko on steam years ago and remember reading something where the character says fuck, then the game goes back a few lines and deletes the word fucking and replaces it with 'damned'. You also lose all the CGs when you buy on steam. Its fucking annoying
>>539616353https://vndb.org/v?q=&ch=&f=04dEXgja&s=26w
Who will save /vn/ now that Karenschizo is gone?
>>539616387no, just check my thread where you can see who posted when. There were multiple threads for several months
>>539616341Why would the JOP KarenGOD come out of hiding? It was always me here.Also I don’t get how you’re talking about me like it’s someone else. You’ve been replying to my posts almost every day for years now.
>>539616341Who's that guy you keep talking about for hours like a crazy spammer?
>>539616713I want to eat my sister...
Any VNs set during WWI?
>>539616950I wish she had more routes in her VN. But alas!
How do I stop myself from getting distracted by other things while playing visual novels? Every time I try to sit down and play a new vn I end up either clicking around in discord trying to respond to everyone or going outside to shitpost on 4chan which means nothing gets done. Is there anything I can use to make this easier? Or should I just accept I won't be able to enjoy vns ever again?
Any VNs for someone who wants to learn Japanese? I want to read my first vn in the language instead of just using AI translation patches
How is Rewrite
>>539616713I want more ge like this one
>>539617703Majikoi
>>539617716Hentai Prison
>>539617454just close your eyes and visualize being inside a book world
>>539616654>So we are stuck with pirated versions forever?Yeah if they decide to do a rerelease, maybe in 20 years.>patch back the uncensored scenesThe TLer didn't translate them, there's no way around this one. The only reason why some companies censor content is because of legal issues (like gore) but censorship of swearing has nothing to do with any law.
>>539617454you need to improve your self control
>>539616713I hate NTR kino. The only thing worse than being cuckolded is being forced to watch as your partner gets cucked too.
>>539617454>Is there anything I can use to make this easier?Just turn off your computer if you need to focus
>>539617454just read an nukige (or two) as your main hobby and you’ll get used to italso just ignore people being retarded online since they’re retarded offline too
>>539616651Karenbro............
any VNs where MC is the father of an older woman heroine and they have lots of sex and he never leaves her alone?
>>539616713NTR is bad
>>539618276You're gay bro
>>539616349I thought jops said he was gay??
>>539618272>there's no way around this one.Well there's always money laundering
>>539618836Rokuhara concubine
>>539618876Rokuhara died long ago
Post white women heroines
https://vndb.org/v23497Does anyone know what happened to the game after the Steam release?
>>539618569This but male and the MC fucks his own daughter.
>>539618554Karenbro...is...alive???
>>539607364Help, I'm playing Grisaia (Steam) with the HCG patch. For some reason, all the apostrophes are inverted and it's very distracting. Is there a way to fix this?
>>539619179There is no definitive answer to this question, but it is speculated that Nigerian boat drivers may have used spontaneous combustion as a way to dispose of waste or to signal for help.Spontaneous combustion is a chemical reaction that can occur when certain materials are heated to a high enough temperature. When this happens, the materials can burst into flames without an external source of ignition. This can be extremely dangerous, as the fire can spread quickly and out of control.While there is no sure way to prevent spontaneous combustion, Nigerian boat drivers may have used it as a way to dispose of waste or to signal for help. If they knew that the materials on their boat were likely to spontaneously combust, they may have set them on fire deliberately in order to avoid a dangerous situation.Whatever the reason, spontaneous combustion is a very dangerous phenomenon that should be avoided at all costs.Thanks for everything gentlemen.

>>539617716It's great
https://x.com/visualnovels_en/status/1967843447165632565New VN released
We love Karen here.
>>539618269Do you not realize how impossible that is unless you have complete mental retardation? I'm sure it would work wonders if I did though. It'd probably be better than actually reading something anyway.
>>539619280So there's no fix then? Just gotta get used to it?
>>539619110He’s been alive for 10 days now! He even posted that day! What did he mean when he said “Goodbye” last thread????!!!
>>539619280>spontaneous combustion>not even close to how it worksLiterally uneducated shill spamming garbage information
>>539619350He did nothing wrong
>>539619179Bot-dono...Click on Grisaia Custom SP.ttf in your folder and install it.
Any visual novels about space travel?
>>539618272How do you mean by "easier"? You don't really have much choice other than either ignoring it completely, trying to understand and remember each individual word, or giving up entirely.The first option leads to misunderstanding things, the second requires effort and attention while also having the chance of missing stuff which means it could take longer than usual even if it works well, and the last is obviously a loss of potential knowledge.What's the point of reading then?
Any good chuunige besides Muv Luv Alternative?
>>539619920Maji de watashi ni koishinasai
>>539619654I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I clicked the font installer and then the custom SP file and pressed install but it still inverted in game.
>>539619280How does this relate to visual novels?
>>539619367it wouldn't be so much fun otherwise
Post cute boys
Is it true the new Asapro has no H-scene at all?
>>539619920Grisaia series
>>539620070Maybe try another language version or use some sort of tool to edit the files manually? Don't know how exactly they're written into the program.
>>539619920Steins;GateHigurashi
>>539620070Then you fucked something up. I also had graves instead of apostrophes when I launched my copy and immediately after I pressed install inside the font preview window it corrected itself, without even closing the game. Try copying the file into your windows font folder (accessible through control panel) directly. Could be because you're using W11, which means it's incurable retardation.
>>539619920Dies Irae
>>539618272If you're too lazy to read a single line you should just give up. If you can't handle an occasional hard word, you shouldn't touch literature at all. Why are ESLs like this?Read some shit already.
>>539619920Muramasa
>>539620427That sounds painful
>>539620451Nope.
>>539620461>>539620543Thanks guys, I'll try again tomorrow with some fresh eyes.
>>539619280Why would anyone want to read VN with text that looks like ass?
>>539619367You can easily just read one line per month. That way you'll never forget anything.
>>539619179>not posting grisaiahuh???
>>539620740KINOmasa*
We need more VN with heroines who wear glasses
>>539618535You need to keep your brain active and healthy to enjoy any medium - including VNs.
>>539620451It does have one
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfYcQnF6ZgkVN for this feel?
>>539619367>he doesn't get to enjoy his favorite VNs anymore
>>539618949The only ones that count as NTR is those where the heroine gets cucked by other men. Heroines getting cucked by MC is not NTR.Also most of them were either used goods or married women anyway.

>>539621673it was so obvious but i couldn't stop thinking why there was a man in the background while i was trying to understand what he meant
>>539621013Because if you do that then people will say "why are you reading vns with bad text?" when in reality there's literally no reason to use bad text in the first place

Is it possible to live a normal life after reading all yuri ge and now you don’t think straight because you’re gay?Like I’m pretty sure someone once posted here that they started identifying as homosexual after reading all yurige and how they ended up dating an actual girl after they came out of their shell.
>>539621954Is this really a good game? It's been on my backlog for years now.
>>539622242what does it reboot from?
>>539621634Why do you hate kusomasa? It’s kamige.
Any good nukige with big tits? (Preferably H scenes)
>>539622519kek forgot about that arc
>>539622548Sekai Project just dropped one like yesterday
>>539622502No, it just makes you less likely to be attracted to girls and more likely to have sex with girls than before
>>539621954>that shit art styleNah.
>>539622516Only if you like incest
>>539621634Kill yourself Karenschizo
>>539622516Yes
>>539622519I wish Nasu could write something like that again... The best part of the series were the characters' interactions and banter, sadly most VN writers can't seem to emulate that. Even if it was a short side story, at least we'd have some more fun moments.
>>539622519That's not even part of the story.The entire point of Archer being the protagonist is to make him feel like a loser and pathetic, which is exactly what happens when you read Umineko.
>>539622783yeah it looks awfulmaybe its better in japanese or something
>>539622548https://store.steampowered.com/app/2899970/Yuki_onna_-_Yukikaze_the_Royal_Winter/
>>539622778How come? I thought that VNs would make me a woman since women love being cucked.Am I missing something or am I gay? Or am I a trans lesbian who wants to fuck other men because they look like women inside?
>>539622778Yeah I know. But I thought being gay would make me identify with them or something instead.I guess I need to read another chuunige too lol.
>>539621982If your writing isn't good then you shouldn't read VNs at all. The whole medium is garbage
>>539622502Yurige didn't do anything to your brain. You're just imagining things.
>>539622783That art style is peak though
>>539622778So if I watch anime/manga then it will make me gay?
>>539622828Where did I go wrong
>>539622502It depends on the person. Some people enjoy seeing heroines having sex with each other but others are uncomfortable by it. In any case, it doesn't turn people into homosexuals. Just because you see two women kissing doesn't mean that you want to kiss them too. There might be some people like that but I doubt anyone here has ever met such a person.
>>539622785I'll never forgive NekoNyan for censoring these CGs
>>539622787meant for>>539622803
>>539622519kuso masa is the worst fandisc ever made
>>539623106Yep!
What yuri VNs should I play next? I've finished Kiminozo and Miburo already so I'm looking for something new.
>>539623106Anon...You don’t understand how brains work
>>539623076You're just thinking of the heroines. What you should be doing is looking at the male characters, seeing how they interact with each other and getting turned off by that behavior.
>>539623082But you wouldn't read vinnies without a plot?
>>539623116You went down that path by choosing evil
>>539623117You don’t need to touch their boobs to get off from watching yuri porn
>>539623106you don't get off reading yuri so yeah
>>539623363All of them
>>539623386Plotchads reading moeshit and shitge aren't real plotchads tho
>>539622502it makes you gaythis general proves it every day
>>539623117But this is a place where everyone is either pretending or actually homosexual
>>539623128Why does he keep posting about Fate? It’s not like he reads VNs. He just posts about this one thing and nothing else. It’s annoying as hell.
>>539623369Sakura Moyu
>>539623076Because it makes you empathize with the girls, not the guys. That’s why yuri sucks ass as well.
>>539623382>seeing how they interact with each otherThere's no interaction between the males besides occasional flirting. They can only talk about the heroine (who's usually not there) while they're alone together.It feels like I need to read a more traditional yaoige where the guys actually interact with each other. Maybe one day...
>>539623351The only good part about KusoMasa is Saya's route. It could have been really great if the writers actually gave her more focus and had less filler.
>>539623128>why are you still posting about fate?lol
>>539623665Everyone in this general is straight except maybe 2-3 anons
>>539623369If you’re not familiar with visual novels, then I’d recommend starting out with Sakura Moyu since it's an entry-level VN in terms of its story, themes, etc. Then once you’ve got your feet wet, I'd highly suggest you try out Muramasa and Umineko. Both VNs explore themes and concepts similar to what we see in Kiminozo and Miburo, but they do it much better.
Why does this general have more posters than the /a/GODS?They're even posting shitposts now...
>>539623909Yuri has empathy too. Just because two women are fighting over who gets you doesn't mean you shouldn't be able to sympathize with both sides.Also, if you hate women, you should avoid anything involving them. Even if you love men, they're going to end up with a woman eventually anyway. The best you can hope for is to fuck a man who ends up with a woman. Which would be kind of tragic.
>>539623664>but it doesnt make me gayi dont think i am gay lolits just nice having two beautiful women fight over my dick
We love traps in /vn/
>>539623106This. Yurislop has no value unless you consider the act itself to be the end goal which would mean you have autism. You should go watch some lesbian sex videos on Pornhub instead because that’s all it is. If you want actual emotional connection go read a book.
Is there a single VN which is better than Umineko?
https://vndb.org/v18820Any translations yet?
>>539624197I’m sure all those who posted in the last thread are homo toohttps://arch.b4k.co/vg/thread/538973295/#q539005457
>>539624215I think it has to do with the fact that both the JOPs and EOPs who live here post a lot on /vn/. There's also a decent amount of people here who post multiple times per day too. The most active posters over the past year would probably be:JOPposter0709EOPmashiroiroKarenschizoGODofYuzusoft

>>539623106I feel bad saying this, but yes. A lot of people here seem to suffer from a mental illness called "moe" that causes them to self-harm by making homoerotic jokes and acting like they're heterosexual when they're not.
>>539624704It was announced as getting translated by Hikari Field earlier today.
>>539624702Subahibi
>>539624702Umineko won.
>>539624708Lol lmao kek
What do I need to know about Muramasa before I start reading it? Is it good or just something everyone says is good so it looks cool on reddit?
>>539624959The greatest vn ever made
>>539624736I think people like to discuss games while playing them or when they finish playing them. But people seem to always prefer talking about bad games than reading through one.
>>539624957It's a meme
>>539624868That's only true for VNs I've played
>>539625221Holy shit how long does a translation take anyway? Does someone just sit down for a few weeks straight translating until done?HFK
>>539624975/a/GODs are actually good, but we don't know how much longer they will keep posting here. They might get booted out again soon, so I say cherish their presence while it lasts.
>>539624957You can't really blame anyone for that given how much shitposting and shilling goes on. It makes sense why someone might lean towards bisexuality.>>539624975They were banned for posting spoilers and spamming images of the wrong girl. They were never actually allowed to post there anyway since their accounts got deleted after the ban announcement. Someone must've found their IP address and used it to create new accounts to continue spoiling us.
>>539625478>redditDon't care.>good or just something everyone says is good so it looks cool on reddit?If you ask anyone else about it (not reddit) you'll get the answer "it's kamige". It might not be for everyone since it isn't exactly a moeshit romancege, but it's definitely worth checking out if you haven't already done so.
>>539625478Don't ask questions
>>539625478Its okBut dont expect anything special other than a plot twist you didnt see coming.Also its full of ntr and rape, so if you cant handle that then stop now
>>539624868Rewrite would have been better with more sex scenes and a full route for Takeru instead of having him die.
>>539624457You don't get what yuri is supposed to be conveying, then>>539624442>Just because two women are fighting over who gets you doesn't mean you shouldn't be able to sympathize with both sidesIf you actually care about both girls, their conflict will always affect your enjoyment of the game. It's hard to take any plot seriously while feeling like one side got shafted and the other had everything handed to her on a silver platter without earning it. At minimum, you'll have to deal with the fact that you'll never truly know what went through either girl's mind - especially during scenes where we only see one girl's point of view. This will lead to frustration even if you understand why things happen how they do.In short, it's impossible to fully appreciate and experience yurige without suffering from jealousy (which is unavoidable due to the way romance works), disappointment, and resentment towards the characters involved. All of this leads to a negative experience, regardless of whether you're straight or not. The closest thing to happiness you'll get is that momentary feeling of satisfaction whenever a girl finally confesses and starts dating the protagonist after enduring years of
>>539625478It's not really for normalfags, so read with your own expectations set low. If you still enjoy it despite knowing what to expect, great! If not... well, that's fine too.
>>539625221When did he announce it?? Did you link it or what??? This is news bro... You didn't tell me!!!
>>539625221How many words are left? This game should have been finished years ago.
>>539625478I think most people here would agree that WA2 is one of the greatest games ever made. But it has flaws, and some people dislike them enough that they'd rather read another VN in the same genre instead of WA2.
>>539625939Nope, nope, nope.Takeru was literally me in his childhood form. His death should never have happened.
>>539625687How many people here are real 4chan users? How many of us are using proxies and/or multiple IPs/cookies/emails to make sure our posts remain anonymous?
Is YMK any good?
Thanks for (You)ing me, botchan
>>539626286I can't tell which post is yours and which is the bot
>>539625478I was expecting an action packed vn
>>539624959>the most important visual novel in historyIs that a reference to 11eyes or some random game?
>>539625478The ending wasn't very satisfying for me. I guess it was mostly because I'm used to chuunige endings where all evil villains are defeated by a powerful final technique, not a boring "everyone dies" ending.I thought the second half of the common route was pretty solid though. Also enjoyed the h-scenes, except for Amane's. I didn't like how the MC fucked up twice when she told him to use protection each time, and his explanation at the end felt kind of retarded.
>>539625954>normalfagsNot my problem. I'm sure most people in /vn/ fit that description, but that doesn't mean I need to change myself to accommodate them.
>>539626207The first question answers itself. I use at least 3 different accounts, but only post on /vn/.
Why does /vn/ hate Fate Stay Night when they love Umineko? They’re both chuunige written by Nasu.
>>539625478The ending was pretty kino though
>>539625954Normal fags will only read vns if it fits their ideals. And nothing can convince them otherwise.
>no cute girl to hold hands withWhat am I playing this for then?
>>539626190He's literally me aswell but I'm still alive though
>>539625478Why did you wait until 2025 to play it? I've been reading it since 2017, man... What did you do all these years?
>>539626438Akiha isn't a main character though?I thought Akiha was just meant as a joke
>>539626686Fate is better than uminegro btw
>>539625478This guy needs more friends.
>>539625478what are your thoughts about the true ending being shit now that you're done
>>539626909You're not supposed to see her face while holding hands
>>539625954>read with your own expectations set lowWhat am I supposed to be low about? I don’t know what this “genre” even entails. The game looks cool tho.

>>539626912Tateha would have been such a great tsundere if he wasn't so annoying
>>539627160It had its moments, but overall it sucked ass.
>>539627173It's an anime adaptation, so the writing quality is going to vary wildly depending on who wrote each part. There are parts that are really good and parts that are fucking awful. It's worth watching, especially the OPs.
>>539627396Literally every heroine in this general would agree
>>539627164How would I go about seeing her face without seeing her face?
How do I get back into VNs after spending a year away from them?
>>539627160It was fucking fantastic. Best ending in the whole series.
>>539627415HOLY FUCKING KINOOOOO
>>539625954Are there any other games like this one? I want some action too. But I'm tired of fighting battles against others because I hate that shit.Also, are there any VNs where the MC has no powers or magic but his girlfriend has magical powers and uses those to fight alongside him?
We need more white women heroines.
>>539627914Start with something comfy like Steins;Gate or Fate/stay night. Don't rush through anything, take your time enjoying the stories. If you feel burnt out from reading something you might not enjoy as much as before then step away for a bit and come back later when you're feeling ready again.
>>539627396My response would have been>"nah, this world is great"and walk away.

>>539627914start with something comfy like steins gate or fate stay night
>>539627173Don't bother looking at reviews before you start.Just pick something you like and dive right in. Don't let anything stop you unless you decide it doesn't grab your attention early on. Just keep pushing through because there'll always be someone saying something is bad or not worth it, but those people didn't experience whatever you experienced. Trust your instincts.

>>539627880Just look directly at her eyes. You don't need to look at anything else.
>>539627914Don’t think too hard
>>539628338This, don't look at any review. Reviews are worthless, even worse than ratings. The only thing which can tell how good/bad a visual novel is your own taste and enjoyment.
>>539627914Don't read visual novels
The only reason why people read vns nowadays is because they can't watch actual porn anymore due to censorship laws.
>>539627173It's actually pretty good aside from some parts. The true route makes up for everything.

>>539628338That's what I thought earlier (I've never looked at any reviews), but now I am starting to doubt myself since there seems to be many people who hate Umineko here and there. So if I find myself hating umineko during reading will I just give up and drop it?>>539628360I wish I could do that...

Why are yuzuslop posters so angry lately?

>>539627173I've seen plenty of people say it's shit. It feels more like a short nukige rather than a proper moege story.It has potential if they were willing to write a longer story instead of being cheap.
>I love Karen
>>539628768You can drop anything whenever you want, no one cares about your opinion, you can read it and say "ehh, i guess its ok", thats fine too. There's no such thing as having to finish something you don't like. It's a hobby afterall, if you get bored you can always put it down and return later once you're in the mood again.

here's a summary of the conversation.Visual Novel Discussion The thread, titled "Visual Novel General #7218," is for discussing English-translated Japanese visual novels. The opening post provides helpful links for those with technical issues, including a troubleshooting guide, VNDB.org for finding novels with specific elements, and a download link repository. Users discuss a desire for more translated VNs, particularly "kamige" (god-tier games), and lament the lack of recent releases. One user suggests simply using machine translation and OCR (Optical Character Recognition) on Japanese versions. There's a debate about the quality and censorship of official Steam releases for VNs like Higurashi and Umineko, with one user claiming the Steam versions are heavily edited and censor swearing and CGs.Community In-Jokes & Culture The thread contains several inside jokes and recurring characters, including "Karenbro" or "KarenGOD," a user who frequently posts about a character named Karen. Other users discuss his absence and theorize about his whereabouts and identity. Another recurring topic is a user referred to as "AIsir," who is speculatively identified as an AI or bot, with users joking about his identity and purpose in the thread. There's a lot of apathetic and nihilistic humor, with users making comments like "We're gonna die soon anyway" and "The AI has taken over and killed us all." Users also discuss different subgenres, like "moege" (moe games) and "NTR" (Netorare), and express personal preferences for certain kinds of heroines and plotlines. One user mentions a VNDB purge of "porn" games like those from Illusion.

>>539628768>will I just give up and drop it?Absolutely not, unless you decide to stop liking things altogether.
>>539629347but he said he wanted to start reading this year...
>>539628747But it's one of the best parts. It does a lot of interesting things with the story structure, and has great emotional impact.
Post heroines who have a little bit of body hair on their arms and legs.
>>539629596kek why does this keep happening...
>>539627914read tenshi souzo remake first
Are there any good vns about going on a road trip with your bros or family members?
>>539629347Yeah, he said that himself. His favorite VN was Danganronpa 2, then Raging Loop. He likes Nekonyan translations.
>>539629343That's what I was doing when I started reading them. But I ended up liking some things more than others, so then I kept going until I felt like putting them aside. Then later, I went back to pick them up again because I still wanted to read the good parts. Eventually I just finished them all since I wasn't sure which ones I'd regret dropping before finishing.But yeah, you should definitely do whatever works for you - whether it's dropping them, skipping bad parts, only reading good parts, etc. No need to be hard on yourself if you aren't enjoying something enough to keep going.
what's going on here
Any vns set in the real world? Preferably modern times
Where's my MTL vndb?
>>539629712What if I was told a particular game would be bad because some other person disliked it before I started playing it but then I got hooked and ended up loving it so much I couldn't stop?
>>539629713I'm not gonna lie, I've been thinking about starting it myself at some point in the future (probably next year). There are plenty of other VNs I want to read too though.
Any vns where MC kills himself at some point but then gets reincarnated into another world? Not a fantasy setting though.
>>539629902looks normal to me
>>539629347He will never learn from his mistakes.
>>539630237i mean i guess it is from an asian perspective..
Why are people obsessed with moege nowadays
>>539629713I think everyone here knows what they want to read and when they will finish their current ge.It takes time, but we can always come back to new release at some point.
What is /vn/'s opinion on kara no shoujo 3?
>>539629893He's actually pretty cool. What is his name again?
Why is Muramasa so popular among women?
>>539629347He already said he is done with Muramasa.
any vn where mc fucks his mom while she's having sex with someone else?
>>539630275We're moebuta. That's our nature. We enjoy cute girls.
>>539629887that's probably the worst choice possible
>>539630087There's nothing wrong with killing yourself.
>>539630271This isn't even close to how they're portrayed in Japan, retardbro. The Japanese media portrays women as extremely submissive and sex-crazed while Westerners see the same characters as independent strong-willed women.
>>539630463>his motherno such thing
>>539630459because they don't know any better
>>539630282>we can always come back to new release at some pointI can't imagine how anyone could ever start reading anything without being spoiled by random posters online saying "this game sucks". It's kind of insane to me. If you don't know the difference between an actual spoiler and an opinion, maybe you shouldn't be recommending games to others either.
>>539629713>finish your VN first before reading anything elseNo fucking way bro, this shit has to wait.
>>539630459>muramasafagisnt he gay tho
>>539630459Because it's the perfect example of a male character archetype: The Chivalrous Hero who fights against evil and protects the weak, but also happens to be very sexually attractive and capable of impregnating beautiful young women.This combination makes him extremely appealing to many men.
>>539630287>not even the most overrated shitposting kamigeit's fine
>>539630292Anon, I don't know. You'll have to ask him directly. If you're referring to Kageaki, he's literally voiced by Akio Otsuka, whose VA credits include:Kageaki - MuramasaKazuki Amano - ClannadFuminori Ichijou - Kimagure TemptationIchijo - Fate/stay nightHarujiro - FurerabaMakoto Shishiku - Kanobitch! The Animation
>>539630459Because of its plot twists?
>>539630287>3the worst one by far
>>539630459Because it's kamige.
>read a book or two during the past few years>moege is the only genre I could get intoWhy did this happen? Is there anything that can help change this?
>>539630842you should look up the definition for that word anon
>>539630275They're not really that different from other VNs outside of anime artstyle and H scenes (which is a huge part of them)
>>539630658If you haven't finished something, why would you recommend it to others anyway?
>>539630847what do these numbers signify
>>539630658>I can't imagine how anyone could ever start reading anything without being spoiled by random posters online saying "this game sucks".That’s why you’re not supposed to post spoilers or recommendations for vns on /vn/, dumbass. Why do you think there are “rules” about that?>maybe you shouldn't be recommending games to others eitherYou should only recommend things you’ve personally played. Nobody gives a fuck if you haven’t seen something.
>>539630849The fuck was that last one
>>539630842Yes
>he doesn't like karen or murasame
>>539630459You mean like 9-nine-?
>>539630459Muramasa is the only VN that gives you permission for self-insertion into MC (killing bad) without feeling like you're going to get cucked or gaslit about it later on. And since the main antagonist is also a man, women feel safe enough to enjoy it too.
>>>/v/720951164This thread alone has more soul than the last 100 /vn/ generals.
>>539630864Read more moege with good stories
>>539631060I'm talking to anons who read moege here in /vg/ though so I wouldn't expect them to be familiar with our rules. That said, I still don't understand why you need to finish the entire vn before posting any kind of recommendation at all. It seems excessive to me as someone who hasn't read much.
>>539630842He's not gay though... He's just a cuck queen like 75% of /vn/
>>539630658I just want to play more moege instead of playing some retarded nukige with stupid stories.
>>539630864You are just like the average moebuta. Just accept it. Moege was made specifically for people like us.

>>539630864Your brain isn't wired properly
>>539631259Because if you've started but didn't finish, then you can't tell whether it's worth recommending.Also, it'd be nice if you actually followed through with your reading and completed what you begin.

>>539631932That's true except if it's something where the ending really changes how I view everything from the perspective of the heroine or the world. But yeah most times you'd probably have to finish the game to know if its good or not

>>539632992meant for>>539631481
>>539632151Live yourself
>>539632976It’s a double lambda because it says “lambda x”, which means “for all x”. It makes more sense when you read the full sentence:“Let us suppose that the statement is false. Then it follows that for all X, the proposition that the person X made an assertion is equivalent to the negation of the proposition that X made an assertion.”So they’re basically saying that everyone on Earth made a contradictory assertion at once. And yet, somehow, that doesn’t contradict itself.Lambdas are just symbols people use in math logic stuff.
>>539631481He will die and leave us behind forever. It's like that scene in Naruto Vtuber edition where he gets his head cut off but keeps talking.
>>539632992Samefagging retard...
>>539633394JOPs don't care because they're always lurking around waiting for that perfect moment to spam their favorite VN like 6-7 years later
>>539631928Karenbro was correct all along
>>539632976They're just friends...
>>539633198So why don't they just use other letters like beta? That seems more natural than lambda. Or maybe that's too much effort.
>>539633198How does that relate? Alpha and omega, sigma and omega, lambda and alpha, pi and omega... all Greek letters which signify beginning/end, nothing more than that. The only exception being sigma since it means 'to cut', as in cutting things off at their source. It's just the old man's hobby.
>>539633809What if I told you that this general is the same guy who used to shitpost here back when /jp/ existed? He literally hasn't posted anything new in like 7 years now. This guy also runs several discord servers with bots programmed to automatically spam threads over at vndb.org
>>539632997Joker isn't real though. Just because his name is Joker doesn't mean he actually likes playing with cards and is mentally unstable.

>>539631481This guy should be locked away with the rest of our schizos
>>539633828beta is already used for something else (like second) or lowercase
>>539634226That's me btw, how do I know? Because I'm the same anon from way back then. You can call me whatever name you want. But what I have said above is true. We've both been posting here since before the move to vndb.
>no one ever talks about the actual content of the post anymoreKINOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>539632976they were trying to be edgy
>>539633616>which means “for all x”Nope, it's existential quantifier: “there exists an x”
>>539633828Because the word Beta already exists? They're using Lambda instead of something else (like Nu or Mu) purely out of convention. Also, we've got the whole Greek alphabet thing going on there.
>>539634226If he really exists then how come he never posts anything about him or even mentions himself until recently? Maybe we have another Karenschizo here?Also there is no way someone could be that consistent for that long without anyone noticing.
You guys are gay.
>>539634226kek
>>539634226That's not possible, the cord has been dead for ages before /jp/ got nuked
>>539633198A very long time ago there was a discussion on /h/ about the fact that most porn stars are actually women, and many of them are extremely well educated, intelligent and successful. Some of the more radical posters claimed this must be true because they are so hot. A few weeks after this, some random poster here did an image search for the hottest pornstar, and found that she has a PhD in economics. They brought up her existence in this thread and claimed that we proved these guys wrong, and that there's no correlation between attractiveness and intelligence. The next day someone replied "You proved that there IS a correlation." Someone else replied "I think there's another way to look at it." After that nobody talked about any of that again until someone else mentioned it yesterday and started this whole thing going again.
>>539635275For example,x > y + z implies that there exists an integer solution to that equation.Butx = y + z implies that for all integers that satisfy that condition they will hold. So it's pretty much a different kind of implication where each side refers to the truth value of the statement as a whole rather than its variables. Or maybe my entire understanding of it is flawed. It does feel intuitive that saying 'there exists' makes it a weaker statement compared to stating 'all'. Which is why I assumed the former being used first would mean the latter. If I had known I'd have just made the joke myself.
We love jannies
>>549219331Is she going to say no to MC again??? She's such a tsundere!!!!!!
>>539635009I believe you, but you shouldn't say things like that again. You might scare a new poster into leaving.
Why did Karen hate her boyfriend so much? Is she a closet lesbian?
Any good moege with a strong female protagonist? Preferably not yurige.
>>539632976There are two different characters.You might confuse them by their names but they're completely different people, not related whatsoever
>>539635303What are the odds?

>>539635813I know at least 2 of those IPs, kill yourselves.
>>539635813Kek
>>539635530Yeah i think this is true too and it was always very obvious to me, but i'm still curious why do most people use "implies" when they actually mean "is logically equivalent to", or at least something close enough to it?In other words: What exactly do we gain from using "if P then Q" instead of "P iff Q"?
>>539636260Everyone is busy with important stuff today and tomorrow
>>539636031It was fate from the beginning.
>>539636478Based!
>>539636254>How come you can’t get cute girls from the same place as the bro character in Dengeki Stryker?Bro was the only guy allowed to date them because of his status as an officer.
>>539635530I can understand what you're trying to explain here and i think you're on the correct path, but it's probably easier to start thinking of logical implications as statements that can take the form A->B which means "If A then B" or more formally "A entails B". In that sense, A -> B is equivalent to ~A OR B (which you should already know), because the only time the implication fails is when A is true and B is false. The key thing to note is that an implication doesn't say anything about the case when A is false, nor does it say anything about the case when B is false. Now, this leads us naturally to the idea that an implication is stronger when A is something we know to be true - since knowing A to be true allows us to deduce that B must also be true from our premise. But wait, that isn't necessarily true! For example: if we have the implication"A => B"and we also have another statement that says "not-A", does that make the original implication any stronger? Well, no, because the truth of the implication itself hasn't changed at all, it was always true regardless of whether A was true or

>>539636709We love Karenschizo here tho
>>539636254Dunno. I thought Dengeki Striker would be better written and less boring.The only reason to play it is for its artstyle, and even then that's not great either. It feels like one of those early eroge where every heroine has a different artist and their styles clash badly.
>>539636714He's literally me.
Any vn where MC has to fight multiple enemies at once, and they’re all weak against each other’s type?

we hate karenbro here
>>539637095I fucking LOVE KINOmasa
>>539637105kek no way lolI've played uminegro twice, maybe thrice. It's just too slow for me, man.It's more or less my second favorite mystery game (first is muramasa)
>>539637112There isn’t enough white woman heroines in vns to have any discussion on them. We’ve had maybe two dozen total across all time (and most of them were brown)
>>539636892Muramasa
>>539636247he didn’t rape himself though
>>539636898I mean the writing isn't bad but most VNs that feature this kind of style get tired pretty quickly. There aren't that many characters to write about because everyone looks basically the same, so the game needs some really unique designs otherwise you'll find yourself repeating the exact same scenes over and over again with minor changes to keep things fresh (which you end up doing anyway).
>>539637129It had some cool moments and a fun game mechanic, otherwise nothing special. The hype around it isn't real though - most people are just too retarded to understand it (or didn't care enough about it). Just don't expect anything beyond the basic plot points + cute girl stuff.
>>539637105ummm no, that's just a book
>>539637275I want to know how the final fight plays out before reading Muramasa. I think the build up is way too much and some fights should’ve been cut short or changed completely
>>539636890Saya no Uta
Where there any good vns set in the past century? Like ww2 or something?
>>539637486>it's not good cause there wasn't enough hype!
>>539636898>artstyleit doesnt look that nice when imo
>>539637486>gameplayWhat gameplay??? Like mini-games??
>>539637489>some fights should’ve been cut shortYou're right, they should've kept it at one-on-one battles between MC and each villain instead of having them gang-up on him as well.
>>539637129>overratedit's only rated 8/10 tho
>>539637129You can say it's very overrated since it's pretty simple story-wise, but it does do some neat shit like having the MC remember things that happened after he died as if they were still happening in the present day, which makes certain events feel way more impactful than they would be normally. The whole concept of it being a loop kinda works well once you accept what's actually going on instead of trying to force logic into everything.If I was forced to compare it to another VN then I'd probably go with Subahibi, because both are heavily philosophical yet also play around with reality and time quite a bit. But I don't know how accurate that comparison would be considering how different their actual plots are.
>>539637283KarenGOD...
>no VN heroine as good looking as Karenhttps://files.catbox.moe/1h3tzo.png
>>539637129You can't go wrong if your only experience with it is reading the VN.It's an enjoyable read that takes place in a pretty interesting world, despite having flaws.That being said, there's definitely better options depending on what exactly you're looking for.Read the VN then decide which part interests you the most to see if there's something else you'd rather try instead.

>>539637670yeah i agree, its shit, like literally only worth playing if you wanna see an anime adaptation made
>>539637871Tokyo Kino*
Any VNs where the protagonist gets his dick sucked by someone who has sex with others?
>>539637676The problem isn’t the fact that they’re ganging up on him per se, but that it’s so clearly obvious that these guys have no chance against him while he has the upper hand from the start.He defeats them all alone, he’s already won. It’s unnecessary to make them gang up on him and get killed by him again (even though this might add tension). He kills everyone without even breaking a sweat, including those who had a fair chance against him.Also it feels like they could’ve shortened the game by cutting all the extra chapters where people die multiple times in order to reach the true ending faster, especially chapter 7. And chapter 9 should’ve ended earlier, like the moment he reaches the village and sees Yuki, instead of making us wait 2 hours for him to kill her. There’s no need for such a long buildup to his victory, especially since we knew from the beginning that he’d win. All he needs to do is enter the room and he’ll destroy the world with a single strike, nothing more needed.
>>539637105Yeah
>>539637689I'm not sure why anyone would call it overrated given that it has almost universally positive reviews from people who have read it compared to other VNs. It gets called "boring" by people who haven't read it and never will. You can argue about specific scenes being unimportant or bad but nobody says it's overall worse than most VNs.
Why did we get filtered from muramasa?We wanted to have fun here.

>>539638089Because your favorite vn is shit and you don't belong among sane posters. That said I'll allow you to stay if you don't bring Muramasa up ever again.
>>539638296what was it for
>>539638085It seems like it got hyped up by one guy years ago because there was an anime at the time and then became popularized among EOPs as one of the best visual novels ever written, despite being pretty average when you actually play it. That guy is now retired and probably doesn't even post here anymore so he never realized how much it was overrated. I think people forget what Muramasa really is: it's a plotge where the first half is very cool action/adventure and the second half turns into boring melodrama. The pacing is terrible too.
>>539638123Kek...
>>539638314It's an all ages nukige so probably none since no one cares enough about them. Aoi Tori 2 had a few cute girls tho.
>>539638108AI art is garbage tho
>>539638089It filters zoomers.
>>539638512HOLY FUCKING KINO
>>539638085It gets called overrated because it's actually overrated, there's plenty of great VNs out there that don't suck off your dick. The average reviewer doesn't really understand how to evaluate what makes a good VN and they're all too willing to give their score based purely on how much they enjoyed the story, which is something I hate personally. They're also often too quick to give something a high score if the art looks cool, regardless of whether the rest of the content is good or bad. A lot of people just look at the art and say "this looks cool!" and then decide to rate it highly, when half the time the actual content is mediocre or outright terrible. Muramasa falls into that trap quite frequently; many of the people praising it don't seem to realize that the majority of the game consists of repetitive gameplay segments that go on far too long, and the pacing issues mean that the plot ends up dragging along way longer than it should. Most of the people who praise Muramasa simply enjoy the style of the writing, the setting, and the characters, and fail to appreciate that despite how well written the characters are, the plot itself has several flaws which are largely overlooked due to

>>539638332That guy was pretty much saying what I think. He said the only reason to MTL is because it takes effort away from playing VNs (and the fact he doesn't give up on his dream of learning japanese). People shouldn't be doing this shit for free if they aren't willing to put effort into something they want out of life.
>>539638887This, there was no way MTL could compete with these artists' talent.>>539638685The image seems to be made by a very young girl who hasn't mastered perspective yet (which doesn't surprise me since most of the time they use AI-generated sprites). Even if we ignore that fact however, it looks extremely low-res compared to the other images generated by humans.

>>539639038Oh yeah? Well prove it then - post a screenshot of your passport.
>>539638694>Why do people keep reading vinnies? Is this some kind of coping mechanism?Not really. The only one that reads VNs as escapism is me. Others read them simply out of love for the genre or as an investment for their future self which will probably play them someday. There’s also people who play them simply to cope with loneliness while having friends and family around them.

>>539639545The only thing I'm interested in right now is the new yuzusoft game (or whatever it's called) since it has a heroine from another vn as a side character and her route seems really good so far. Other then that there isn't much worth posting about except for the occasional joke
>>539639734That’s kino though, especially if the gf was raped by her ex while being pregnant.
>>539639362The reason Japanese isn't a problem for me anymore is that I've been exposed to it since I was 5 years old (in a school setting) and picked it up naturally. So yes, everyone should study it hard until they become fluent. You'll probably forget anything you studied after several months anyway so why even bother learning it again if you never used it. And then you can go back to studying it whenever you want.
>>539639945Muramasa is kino
Why did he delete every post?
>>539639540I guess he had to move somewhere else to avoid attention from the FBI
>>539640118Read Umineko
>>539639945>Is it good or bad?It's a very mixed bag but overall decent.>What was its impact on society?There's no evidence that reading vinnies changes your behavior significantly enough to influence society.>Should I read it?If you enjoyed KnK then yes. Otherwise no.>How is it compared to other VNs?Like KnK but worse. If you liked FSN then you'll probably also enjoy Muramasa.>Where do I download it?Here.

>>539640149I had no problem fucking karen
>>539640118>something specifically related to video games/vn's and maybe anime adaptations of VNsI'm sorry but there isn't much besides 9nine which has very little actual plot and doesn't really teach you anything except to make fun of yurishits and lolis.The closest thing would probably be Umineko which teaches you quite literally nothing.
>>539640118Fate/Stay Night (for plot) / Little Busters (for character development)
>>539640342He doesn't need to worry too much because his posts are mostly about gacha spam and memelations, which aren't exactly illegal. The FBI won't care unless /vn/ starts using the internet to incite racial hatred towards whites like an actual terrorist organization.
>>539640134>you haven't played it yet but it must be hot because someone said it islol
>>539640134This is true but most people aren't into NTR. If you find an NTRge where the girl has sex with others at least keep it off screen unless she's a slutty whore who does it in front of MC, otherwise you might turn off some readers. It's also better to make the girls look disgusted afterwards which shows that she doesn't want to engage in this behavior. Incest NTR is always acceptable, especially if the brother is younger than his sister. There is nothing wrong with having a daughter get fucked by her dad either although that usually results in pregnancy, but I won't lie to you: daughters are more likely to end up getting raped by random strangers than sons.
>>539640337He doesn't need his posts deleted; it's more convenient this way. He gets to post anywhere without any restrictions. It also means that no one has to pay attention to him at all, which is fine too.
>>539640118Fate/Stay Night. It's a great example of how to write a long-form plotge.
>>539640118Read Flowers' blogposts
>>539640346Not interested
>>539640568No one cares what you think broski. Get over yourself. No one here will miss you after you're gone. You can leave anytime. We have hundreds of posters just like you. Go ahead. Just go away. Nobody cares about you.
post white women ge
>>539640362Little Busters isn't really relevant for anyone not already deep inside our general culture.>Fate/Stay NightThat's a kamige though so yeah
Post heroines who could beat me.
>>539640581Just delete me already. This place needs new blood.
>>539640118Tokyo Necro. This game taught me how to properly write chuunige.
>>539640118Umineko
>>539640581kek he got baited again
>>539640568Yeah he should stay forever so we don't lose our only JOP poster.
>>539640337He just decided not to come here anymore for whatever reason
>>539640581>I am important to everyone!
>>539640118Tokyo Necro (for how shit it is)
>>539640581You are being annoying. Stop talking to me.
>>539640118Flowers, F/SN, Steins Gate, Muramasa, Tokyo NECRO
How did he do it? How is he still around after so many years despite everything we've done?
>>539640814It's your choice. But deleting you will cause chaos among the other users since they'll start crying "Where did my favorite shitposter disappear?". And you may even cause some innocent posters to fall victim to deletion too.
>>539640118Flowers
How do I fix my life?
>>539640568He never posted anything on /jp/. Delete him or kill him and move on.

>>539640804Yeah Fate was definitely the right choice. Little busters is good too, but I feel like it's a bit less necessary since LB is still somewhat discussed on /vg/, even if only as a meme.
>>539640342he knows
>>539640828I'm sure of it. He probably made some shitpost on another thread and they told him to fuck off. Or he sent them a screenshot or something.
>>539640118Sakura Sakura
>>539640836I love dogs and I love cats and I love Karen
>>539640837I'm glad flowers made it onto the list as well.
>>539640838he uses 2-3 different accounts and just moves between them when things start looking bad for him.
>>539640568Because his existence has brought nothing but trouble to this community. Kill him before he kills more people
What does JOP mean?What is VNDB and why do people use it?What does karenfag mean?What is an anon?Why do people keep saying this is dead?
The thread's dead because there's nothing worth reading right now.
>he forgot he's supposed to be an admin now and is trying to convince people that we shouldn't delete spammerGOD because we care about himLmao, you guys really thought he would get banned by someone when he didn't even make an account in the first place?
Say my name.
