So yeah, "Girls Be Ambitious!" sucked. The focus on the conflict between the wealthy and the normal class wasn't very interesting and really just pissed me off most of the time. The relationship between the heroine and protag is nice, but WAY too short and not enough development. Comedy is pretty good, but was more of a side dish.
Urg, gotta stop getting tricked by game OPs >____>

Has anyone completed Gleam Garden no Shoujo? Because I'd love to read something about it. I've stated before that I'll stay away from it due to the grim tone of the VN (and the - for me - no-go tags on vndb). I know from the offical cgs and a short impression in another forum that it's a dark(er) setting with an interesting story. And although I *could* stomache Grisaia's darker + grimmer moments, I somehow don't fee like it for Gleam Garden. Maybe a mini-shock "reaction" considering the sweetness that Lovesick Puppies was and thus my similar anticipations?

I've played some of Gleamgarden no Shoujo. I've finished the big-boobs' and am about 75% through the black, long-haired one's route. The way the route structure works is that you finish two of the three girls under the MC's tutelage, then do Shirayuki's, then onto the true route.
The individual girl routes so far are only strictly focused on that girl, and a problem they have, and doesn't deal with the greater issues of witches and society. I felt a little disappointed with those routes, but I'm figuring that they're saving all the deep stuff for the true route so I'm going to work towards that with some positive expectations.

just finished Tsujidou-san no Virgin Road...
got angry with the route of Ai after being that short and not really in focus when playing other route (well, still finish and understand it but with a bit irritated emotion), but then after finishing all of them there's still continuation of Ai route yey~ Good work, really good in showing the hard work and determination of the character in each scenario, and the truthness of Tsujidou's saying Spoiler for junai:
Spoiler for maybe?:
Good pure love game series, with their icha-icha time makes me smile and happy (hohoemashi~) so many people asking if Tsujidou's characters go to Kawakami, what level are they in lol.... Tsujidou-san no Virgin Road (辻堂さんのバージンロード) 8/10 Hope for another great work from Takahiro-shi and Sakaki-kasa.... but please not with so much FD just for another girl in Tsujidou series like how majikoi going.... if there will be another one for Tsujidou, at least include another route for Tsujidou (maybe by making another scenario than before scenario) well not really getting my hopes up with the last one saying Ai Last Route.... too much comment, well looking for another happy pure love that have much impact like this game again...over and out~ |

Finally got around to finishing Soukou Akki Muramasa. Didn't play it when it came out because a) robot looking things fighting each other >_< and b) someone I know who reeks of chuunibyou was obsessed with it so I thought it wasn't worth looking at.
Overall it was pretty nice. It touched on lots of topics that were interesting to me at one point or another. Though I'm still not a fan of those giant robot looking things or the lengthy description of fighting techniques(this is coming from someone who actually spent a few years practicing exactly what type of swordsmanship is being described in the game and was able to understand most of the descriptions. The fighting technique stuff being in the wrong context was the biggest turn-off for me. I just felt that the heavy emphasis was a bit out of place with the rest of the story.) But I guess they had to exist for the guys who are in for the fights. I can never resist a solid, well developed male protagonist. It's indeed a rarity these days. Not to mention one that is fully voiced Games like these come and go, but I don't think I will be forgetting about this one any time soon. At least, not the protagonist.

I'm fairly new to visual novels so I can't really answer that. What Nitro+ games would you recommend? I only finished playing Saya no Uta and Muramasa, with the major gripe against Muramasa being too much sci-fi, action and combat. I browsed through the titles and judging from the covers they aren't really interesting, but then again I thought the same way about Muramasa as well so I'm afraid that I might be missing out on something good despite the story settings which I find less-than-optimal.

Finished Natsuki's route in Berry's. Overall lovely with an awkward(?) beginning, but the drama was annoying. Fortunately, I was prepared because when I skimmed through the CGs, I saw one particular and was like "Okay ... THAT will be the drama of her route". Other than loldrama, its main focus is more on comedy and rabu-rabu (post-confession, obviously). I would have loved an (sub)-route for Aruha, but that's not a deal breaker.
Ena's route pre-confession showed how to do a test-dating correctly without some pseudo purposes like fending off random confessions *coughhatsukoi1/1,lovelyxcation1cough* And I completed most routes in Hoshi no On Sanctuary. Again, ignoring all mid-dramas, I loved how Serina's route progressed the relationship seeing how I wondered how they'd do it after Serina's more comedic moments during the common route (although she's far from weak battle-wise). Serina >= Hisui > Rina = Yomi. Rina's epilogue was satisfactory, but not a true happy-end. Hisui has a canon-ish feeling due to the start of common route and it's always nice to see how a MC melts the ice walls of the local cool-beauty/ice queen .

High school/simple happy settings is ok as long as the characters are not horribly simplistic and gimmecky. In fact I like looking at moe cute things being unconventionally messed up. It's a pretty addicting feeling. Sumaga seems like that kind of game if the tags on vndb are anything to go by. |

May I recommend Subarashiki Hibi too although that isn't by Nitro. Karory did the artwork along others so that's a major bonus as well.

Wonder if Nitro+'s Kimi to Kanojo to Kanojo no Koi falls into the same category. Anyone read that yet? |

I just read summaries on the Taimanin Asagi series. This has to be one of the more in depth eroges I've come across alongside the great art drawn by Kagami. I wonder if TA3 will be the last one.....
These summaries had me there for three hours and I don't regret one bit.
