>Ciconia flopped so no more Ciconia and no brains in jars and magic being just advanced technology kino I hate this timeline. If I were billionaire I would give ryukishi enough money so he stops being poor and write

>>1205341 R07 isn't working on Ciconia because he doesn't want to work on Ciconia. First it was Ukraine, then it was covid, I'm sure he'll come up with another excuse at another point. I'm probably gonna be there day one for Silent Hill F even if it's probably gonna be a worse version of Higurashi (which still means it'll be the best Silent Hill-related release in maybe two decades?)

Akiha is here!

>gay hours I'll leave you guys to it

I was getting worried this was just going to be Looking Glass Insects again, but I should've known Sca-ji would put a spin on it. Where was this level of creativity in the earlier routes???

>>1205872 It's Yuumi's soliloquy in particular that everyone points to if you ask them why Zypressen is supposed to be a station above the rest of SCAji's portfolio. I went into that route with impossibly high expectations, and while I was by no means let down, I like everything beyond Zypressen much more than Zypressen itself.

Finished Arc's route. Now I love white women

Any visual novels where a shota watches you fuck the loli heroine from a closet and when you notice him you force him to join in for a 3P? Bonus points if they're identical twins

major spoilers >Lily's fucked up her eyes from power overuse >Chiyoko went completely insane and believes she is Haruka, used her powers to change her hair >most of the girls don't even answer their telepathic communications and the ones that meet up discuss running briefly >Imari's heart disease gets progressively worse with meds no longer having any effect >barely anyone shows up to fight so they use the newly deployed tanks as cover, with Yui calling them out on not being any better than her >Lily feeling guilty about Haruka volunteers to fix Imari's heart before it's too late and goes completely blind Holy fucking grim. What a chapter. Didn't expect all the foreshadowing to come down at the same time. Palpable despair, didn't expect this game to eke any emotion out of me when I started, such a rare occurence nowadays. Sidenote since this came 1.5 year after madoka, I wonder if that's where the idea for monsters with the same powers, just without any safety limits called 'witches' came from or was this a trope in magical girl shows even before madoka.

>>1206099 Do peple really say its his best? I dont think I've ever seen anyone say it is, epithaps and chapter vi are better, and even though zypressen itself is good, scaji sabotaged it on toki

>>1209782 >madoka First time posting here, I hope I got it right. The original denominaition for the witches is "Majin" or "Demon". I named them “witches” because the main reason they were referred to as “demons/majin” is that this word is composed of the characters “magic ” 魔 and "human"人, i.e. “Magical humanoid”. I could have used “magical humanoid” just like that, but that's not frightening the way "Majin" was, so I opted for “Witch”. Also, when Madoka Magica was aired, the original version of this game was already more than halfway through, so I don't think the author was inspired by it.

Don't threads here go to 1500? Why was this one made?

>dont wash dick for a few days >peel back foreskin >hit by the heavenly smell filling the air Nothing better than this. Is there game where MC does this and tells the heroine how lucky she is that she gets to have a sniff?

Honestly as a lolifag don't want to take over milk factory with flatties. I completely understand that normal people enjoy functional breasts on their heroines. But I do think that there is a very valid market for having at least a heroine or two with a different body type. Milk Factory has some great heroines but the fact that they all have the exact same body, even the loli and the mothers, completely kills any erotic factor to the game for me.

>>1214756 This is a man

>>1214849 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKINOOOOOOOMOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

>>1214480 What's with the NATO shirt?

>>1214756 I don't think they have the same body types at all, though. If you're accounting for anything more than their breasts they have different faces, body lines and heights. You've even got a token tall girl too.

Almost here. There's no way this isn't true end. Though I hate hitting true ends on the first run.

>Chiyoko loses it when she sees the monsters and fights without the camouflage with complete disregard for the city, wrecking it before getting knocked out by Lily's boyfriend A well written way to get the girls existence finally revealed to the public I've said it before but I really appreciate how there's no plot asspulls, the way things develop from previous events feels so natural. Bonus points that the plot's been completely unpredictable to me so far besides thick foreshadowing for certain occurences, didn't even catch the death flag with Chiyoko and Haruka having a fight since they already had arguments before >girls going to tell Haruka's mother about everything Needy Lily a cute, Sakuya's so lucky to have a blind gf >friendship >minor spoiler for the game's realistic approach, not a big deal if you view Another thing is that it doesn't pull the silly power of friendship stuff, even after all that time (3 months in-game) most of the girls aren't really friends, they don't even necessarily like each other or talk besides when they need to. The grand goals about protecting the city and others disappeared somewhere along the way too - when Moka went to beat the cowards up it was only because she was afraid of getting hurt if there weren't enough of them. >>1213899 >madoka Yeah I was pretty sure it'd be impossible to make this game in such a short time, but considered the possibility things were just added/changed in the remake. >witches Good call on that one. Always nice to get TL info, especially in the cases of unvoiced lines. for future reference if you put * * (without space) on each side of the text it gets hidden under the spoiler bar

>>1216773 Also token colored girl, token womanlet, and the milfs in general having more mature appearances than their daughters. They should add a token ムチムチ slampig to the roster too.

>>1216843 >token ムチムチ slampig My dick would not survive

>>1213899 You translated it? Very cool. I'm going to read it too, soon. Looks very neat from the blogposting.

>>1216879 >no pubes Lame.

>>1216879 I know Akagi Rio can do it too, since I recall one of the girls in Bishop's games that she drew for was supposed to be thicc. Or maybe she was just supposed to have a big butt. I can't recall. I wonder if the next Milk Factory title will be Akagi Rio's game again and they'll go between Rio and Delaware on rotation per game now.

>can't even guide her by the hand >peeks on her changing because he's worried she might have trouble but she knew what he's up to and he saw nothing Lily's boyfriend continues to be pathetic, and here I thought he was finally becoming reliable... It's truly over when even she knows he's spineless. Isn't the guy normally supposed to at see least underwear anyway? what a loser... Retsu would have fucked her already.. kek

no pubes? not reading

no angel? not beating

Do we like oppai academy, oppai academy 2, or the succubus milk factory most in /vn/ here?

hello anon may this message find you in good health. why are do many of the girls in nie no hakoniwa have the tag rape by protagonist only?

snitches get stitches. I appreciate the author not shoving the parallel and preaching in the reader's face too much, at least so far - though it'll probably remain that way. Its just enough to be obvious and let people dwell on it if they want to. Pretty much the same for all the other girls in fact, like how Kotone's lazy but can be counted on when things get serious and Youko who kept bothering her to put in more effort ending up breaking in spite of seeming like a tough girl Going by his peers it must take a lot of restrain as a japanese author to not make a massive arc of repeating the same thing over and over again to the viewer to get a point across

>>1217734 because... they get raped by the protagonist only?

It's quite ironic how Daemonbane, wich namedrops Lovecraft references and names every two sentences, is much less of an actual lovecraftian horror story than Saya no Uta

>>1217553 Succubus girls look the best imo

>>1217553 They kind of just improve on themselves, honestly. 1 has some great heroines and Fi is great, but some of the girls also don't get enough content. While I'd say the girls in 2 don't have that problem for me. None of them felt like they overstayed their welcome or felt lacking in content like someone like Catherine did in 1. Also, it's super unfair that that medusa girl was relegated to a side heroine when her design was so cute. As for 3, I still need to play it at some point. I tend to pace out playing these games on a yearly cool down period so I don't burn out on too much oppai. But the designs in 3 are super cute, and I do like that, at least from what I can glean from the game from an impression, is that Milk Factory really wanted to do a cast of succubi girls since they really loved Lydia all the way back in OA1, and Maya in 2 also got a lot of interaction with the MC in 2.

This is the cutest Sill has looked so far

>>1217907 I wonder if researching cthulhu shit for demonbane is what inspired urobuchi to write SnU, they released in the same year.

Though Sora route had some sloppy moments like Gilbert's minebomb (but I do remember randomly stepping on his shitty 700 damage mines ingame). Shame we didn't get real Gilbert x Kou buddy action. "Insufferable villain forced to team up with MC" is trope baldr2 truly needs. >Replay it on very hard now, hotdogger. I guess. I got combo fatigue but my endgame shitty bnb should be fine for very hard >for what reason? To unlock all endings, events, level up shitty weapons.

So has Sca-ji ever written a high melodrama yurige? Because between this and LGI it sure seems like he really wants to. That flashback was great presentation wise, although kind of hilarious considering the characters look like six year olds and so much of it revolved around stabbing, bullying, romantic drama, and delinquent violence. I wasn't expecting the cancer twist, and I definitely wasn't expecting the curing cancer by making a really good painting twist. That's some KEY nonsense right there.

Post heroines that smell like the sun!

>>1212584 RayK is a nigger, he's never gonna finish Teaching Feeling.

>>1222713 the more I hear the more im starting to think sca-ji is a hack who knows how to write only one kind of story and has just spent the last 10 years recycling it

Also is this whole route going to be from the girl's perspective and never flip back to Naoya? Did I make a wrong choice and accidentally start the lesbian route? >>1222753 It's actually really different from LGI, I'm mostly joking. But if you had to summarize both in a couple sentences they'd sound pretty similar. >sca-ji is a hack who knows how to write only one kind of story and has just spent the last 10 years recycling it I mean, if Kodaka, Uchikoshi, R07, etc can get away with recycling plots even more blatantly, why not him?

>>1222775 >Also is this whole route going to be from the girl's perspective and never flip back to Naoya? it does

>>1222590 >choker slut >smoker This bitch was made to be consensually gangraped.

>>1222713 >>1222775 >cute tomboy turns into a sexy bombshell SCAGODJI did it again. Does this man ever disappoint?

>>1222821 Eh, she's pretty flat, I'm not so sure about that. >Does this man ever disappoint? I've been warned Sakutoki has a very bad routelet problem.

>>1222775 >LGI not what im talking about, I doubt its similar at all unless you mean something else than looking glass insects. Im talking about the entire feel and plot structure - muh stabbing flashback is just copy pasting subahibi, no? and vague nonsense to pad time. I read your thoughts and it feels like subahibi again but this time mashed with h2o most of the time. >kodaka literally who >uchikoshi absolute ass writer >r07 hasn't recycled anything and his works are vastly different everytime, what are you smoking? >why not him no one "can get away' with it without being a worthless hack no matter how good his magnum opus

>>1222831 >very bad routelet problem thats putting it lightly even the one girl uta true end sets up as a main heroine didnt even get a route, while fucking makoto got a second one, and said route is worse than her og route (imo) and this time it was written by scaji, I wont lie tho the ending was good

>>1220670 >233 thousand views. Holy shit.

>>1223056 Or to be more accurate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DV1fUwKMdAI

>>1209842 >Do people really say its his best? I remember it being a fairly common sentiment. Maybe the attitude towards it changed while I wasn't looking. Doesn't matter though - VI is SCAji's best, until I read Nijuuei and finish Toki

>>1223110 >Toki well... I wont lie, chapter v is great, and it actually carries the vn, but I wouldnt say i liked it more that uta on its best parts

>>1223110 >can't even finish scaji slop and still shills it absolute state of jopland

I admit, I thought Nagayama was a one and done character for Rin's route, I didn't think I'd ever see her again. I was going to make a post about it's not LGI how Yumi beat the bullies by just beating the shit out of them, but then I remembered that literally happens on LGI so maybe sca-ji is a hack after all. I'm getting worried this is going to be some kind of reincarnation drama based on all the dream flashbacks. I sure hope that's not the case. You can have a dying of cancer route and a bullying route and a reincarnation drama route, KEY have done all three, but doing all three in one route is insanity. At least I'm finally out of flashback and dream sequence land and back to Naoya and the route can start(?) >>1222883 >said route is worse than her og route I don't see how that can even be possible >>1223056 >>1223062 Doesn't twitter massively inflate view counts to make the site look more popular? 233k views and 50 comments is a wild ratio. I'm sure only like 1k people actually read it. >>1223127 Once you've read enough VNs you can just tell if a VN is good or not without reading it. Basic level readers can tell if a VN is good or not just from the vndb tags. I've reached the point where I can tell if a VN is good just from one piece of key art.

>>1223151 >I don't see how that can even be possible honestly, it really depens, you might like it more than me. its just that the route does so many things wrong I really cant forgive it, the biggest one being that its mostly focused on a routelet,and I cant help but think it would have been better to just give the route to said girl instead of giving it to makoto

>>1223127 It's part of the job description

>>1223151 > I thought Nagayama was a one and done character for Rin's route also, you are in for a surprise

Am I also going to get a scene of Rin acknowledging she's been cucked and tragically passing the torch to the route's heroine in every route? I thought the main heroine of the Saku duology was Ai (based on literally nothing other than the fact that she's the key art for Sakutoki and because I desperately wanted a lolibaba to be a main heroine for once) but because Rin gets the Chisato-esque main heroine is cucked and has to move on scenes in every route (which none of the other heroines get), I'm starting to think it might be Rin instead? I mean, I'm not a complete idiot, the way people keep posting oh man just wait until you get to the true route what happens with Rin is crazy no spoilers though tells me there's more going on here but I have no idea what it could be.

>>1223151 >Doesn't twitter massively inflate view counts to make the site look more popular? Maybe. But it's also a lot of luck on who even sees the initial tweet and then the algo + retweets will spread it further. Kind of like Reddit updoots in that the initial upvoters are what impacts a thread's chance to hit high upvotes. It just so happens that that line is absurd enough that enough people would like it and retweet it to reach that amount of views.

>>1223151 >Once you've read enough VNs you can just tell if a VN is good or not Obviously. Boggles my mind how you ended up still reading this slop, mr advanced

So this is the legendary untranslateable sca-ji prose... I'm enjoying this route, just to be clear, but I was thinking about it and you know, Naoya getting a massive horde of fangirls who idol worship him and attack Yumi multiple times because he did one good painting on the side of a church is kind of a bit much. >>1223384 I thought there'd be a cute lolibaba main heroine waiting for me at the end!

>>1223430 Valid but you should have used AI to turn them all into lolibabas, repacked the sprites into the game and embraced the chicchai no uta, rakuen no toki

>figure I need an image for all this text >decide to make Luna wear the funny chicken shirt >slipped down the slippery slope into spoiler related Luna won again. To be fair with the arm positioning on that sprite it was inevitable Slightly over 10 chapters to go still but I've been thinking. The only 'issues' I can really point to so far is that I wish some stuff was more developed. Yui definitely needed another scene **with her family fighting and one or two with Tau since iirc he mentioned he liked her due to their approach being similar. If they had another 2 scenes together, maybe with Yui thinking of him as a friend since he lived at her house, Tau having no mercy towards her later would have hit harder and highlighted how alienated she felt at the time. Regarding her family I'm guessing we didn't get more scenes because her mom actually cared about her - thats the kinda impression I got anyway - and the author was very careful not to reveal that too much.** Youko and especially Akari needed 1-2 scenes more for overcoming their respective traumas/fears - it particularly bothers me that there seems to be a scene with Akari that ends up going nowhere - in the first underground map where she gets angry she's treated like she's weak/useless. It never gets any further mention I've a suspicion the game intends to end with the balance power resurrecting everyone. I hope it doesn't since I prefer heavier endings and it'd be a good surprise, but if it ends up happy it'll be the rare earned good end that I can agree with so I can't complain. Sidenote it would seem the title screen is not actually two girls but just Chiyomi. That's a very nice "twist" Since I mentioned traumas earlier - im glad the game avoids the usual dumb cliche of "X character panics/goes insane and hurts allies by using their powers wildly" and its a more realistic gradual fraying of nerves - from the 'woo im a heroine of justice!' to 'we'll be fine when there's more of us' and 'if we have a few more we'll be able to take turns fighting', to no one even mentioning such fantasies anymore. Though its also nice how it's not the whole group that breaks down from nerves and it varies based on the girl. I also like how the game handles arcs - normally japanese media will just chase one character arc to its conclusion before moving to the next, here they just naturally develop as the story progresses, not necessarily ending during its 'peak' of revelance. Yui being the prime example with how they acknowledge it's a problem but they also cannot deal with it now and it continues in status quo. Also if the translation author's still lurking I've been wondering what was the original "nickname" for Lily that Shinobu uses - I think it's translated as "lil bo pep" or something? Was it just "Lil bo"?

>>1224638 The theme kinda sucked

>>1224638 善 and 悪 are subjective and hence it's possible for me to consider someone to be 100% 悪(like communists for example)

>>1225039 Most of the VNs I read aren't in 1080p so no

>>1213899 Cool, I'd be glad to read your impressions too. >>1225206 Time for a little confession. *Shinobu doesn't use nicknames in Japanese. When translating her, I wanted to some how convey her overall casual-comical-lively vibe. The use of nicknames was a means to that end*. If you don't mind, I'll add the last two images of Luna to the “Shinmahosho wholesome” pack. If you have more such images to contribute to Shinmahousho's meager stock of non-guro illustrations I'd love to add them as well.

>>1216925 Cool, I'd be glad to read your impressions too

>>1225039 fullscreen makes me feel like i'm stuck and i become claustrophobic >>1225410 it's the best theme in fiction

>Chiyoko invites Retsu over at night to clear some hard game but he sucks at gaming too Comfy. >last pic He's still got much to learn, bet he'd say no to 'netflix and chill' too complaining about no point to seeing a movie. >>1225966 It needs to be ** on each side for it to spoiler, not just *. Thats an unusual nickname to come up with but I guess it did get the sillyness across so its fine. Were there any other notable additions/changes like that? >luna image Ye sure you can add it, don't have any more though.

>>1226010 >it's the best theme in fiction Maybe if you're still in your early teens

>>1225039 magpie or lossless scaling, and not just VNs many PC games these days

>>1226209 In contrast, Sakuya is too much of a betacuck to stay the night at his girlfriend's place. Starting to look grim for him.

>>Nicknames A clarification on this, Shinobu does use a nickname with Hiyori (Anego, which I translated as "Boss Lady"). >>1226209 I added some scenes from the original Mahou Shoujo that didn't make it to the remaster. There's a list at the end of the Glossary. Other than that, there were no significant changes.

Looks like there's only one EOP who reads VNs in this general

Looks like there's only one Angel who Beats! VNs in this 1st Beat

>>1226520 I've been busy playing Trails from Cold Steel these past weeks. Should I blogpost my playthrough here?

>>1226563 Maybe I'll start Sora no Kiseki and blogpost it here, been meaning to start the series.

Little girls.

>>1226736 For me, it's big girls.

>>1226736 And they're all mine

Weird question but are there any games that come to mind to help desensitise someone to Instagram whore heroines? Basically I find the thought of my heroine flaunting fanservice pics online absolutely disgusting but most 3d women do that for attention anyway so I'm wanting a particularly relatable or charming Instagram whore who despite showing her bustline and thigh highs for money is 100% loyal to her yasashii boyfriend.

>>1226774 The eternal debate whether a loli should be totally flat chested or have a slight budding, tender bust.

>>1226876 FUCKING WHORE!!!

>>1226822 cute plushies

>>1220670 >>1223056 >Normalfags once again being fed disinformation to make it easier for them to make themselves known as retards everytime they talk about japan Based twitter

>>1226822 I've self inserted as kanami in that scene and it was so hot.

I can't decide which milk factory to try.. I want to do the third one cause it's newest but I'm not fond of them being borderline nude the entire time and I low-key kinda like the look of the heroines in second game more

>>1227437 So at which point >>1227414 takes place?

Finally finished Saya no Uta Perhaps it's because it wasn't my first vn or anything, but I didn't find it particularly groundbreaking or tearjerking, but it's not like you have to to make a good story. Surely one of the best expressions of Urobuchi's edginess in a nice and compact package I won't take my meds anymore

>Dolls Nest is now available on Steam! Does it have NTR? If yes I'm not buying.

>>1227700 Is a good thriller and the ultimate newfag VN since it shows everything a VN can do from a storytelling perspective, that's it

Luv Mao. The military was targeting the burrow, not the girls >spoiler huh thats actually a decent plan just for a random brainstorming session. >spoiler2 wholesome mom. >chapter title 'Worship War Goddess' Ominous. Betting $5 it's just Luna rejoining the party since she's the only one who hasn't yet. Sidenote didn't expect her to actually be afraid. >>1226411 he even complained about having to walk her to Telomere's place. He should just get together with the trap at this point, this can't be heterosexual behavior... >>1226497 oh, you meant all nicknames. I was sure 'silly Lily' would have just been 'baka Lily' I assume it was all just a replacement for -chan situations? Good call if so, did wonders for the atmosphere

>>1227921 It's also a good weedout VN. If you can empathize with Fuminori, you'll make it in this medium. Not being able to do that or getting filtered by the H or the guro works well to keep dilettantes out.

>>1227700 >groundbreaking or tearjerking It's mostly the length and how original it is. nitro+ wasn't dabbling in experimental games until later >>1227998 >>1227921 >normalfag story anyone can get into with the full package of what VNs have to offer including questionable h scenes the perfect 'are VNs for me' check

VNs like saya no uta are rare thoever

>>1227965 Oh, no, it's not all the nicknames. The ones that were there also in japanese are: -Chiyo (although I also changed a lot of “Chiyoko-chan” instances to Chiyo in the later half). -Nanana. -Koto, Silly Lily is an special case, half the times comes from "Baka Lily" or "Lilly no baka" but I also used it a few extra times when it fitted the scene. The ones than comes from "-chan" are "Shin-shin" and "Ko-ko". (Shinobu asked Yuuki to call her using "-chan" so I went for an affectionate nickname. And Kohaku mentions in chapter 25 that he also uses "-chan" with her so I went with "Ko-ko") I only added the ones from Shinobu other than "Boss Lady", like Lil' Bo Peep (proposed by the editor, I was gonna use "Farmer Barbie" or just "Barbie"), and some she uses only one or two times, like "Discount Doraemon/Phi" or "Cersei/Shi-hulk/Shiori" >>spoiler 2. I love that scene. Adoptive mother/father-son/daughter endearing conversations always get me emotional. >> the images Not related but back in chapter 30 Kaori was talking about the line in the second image, from chapter 11

>>1227712 Bubby, you don't even need to say. Already bought it on steam.

>>1228055 I meant in a general sense whether you're into that kinda storytelling and able to stomach the issues

Raging Loop is on sale, is it worth it? Also why the fuck is the board slow as fuck since yesterday?

>>1228264 We all busy playing Angel Beats! 1st Beat. Tons of content to unpack in it it's unreal!

>>1228235 That kinda storytelling itself is pretty rare in this medium.

>>1228215 I forgot "Haru", that one comes from "Haruka-chan". Also, Haruka's nickname at her blog was "Haru/ハル" with katakana so I had to change it to H.A.R.U. (as if it wasn't obvious enough who's Haru/H.A.R.U. anyway ( ¬_¬))

I got Love Live Nijichizu today Sadly I haven't been able to actually play it much. Couldn't start the game on Linux because of input bugs, and the port seems to be a mess in general on Windows too (audio glitches, controller glyphs even with no controller connected) so I will probably be getting it on Switch instead

>>1228264 >Raging Loop is on sale, is it worth it? It's mildly entertaining insofar as it's pants-on-head retarded, the protagonist is unintentionally hilarious, and the psychological facet is there. It's a great boredom killer. Maybe not if you were planning to buy it on the basis that you'd take it seriously >Also why the fuck is the board slow as fuck since yesterday? The site absolutely copped it yesterday and just began breaking down repeatedly, for hourly intervals, and honestly, it's still shit out of ass functionally poor for me

>>1228215 Thanks for the explanation >actually googled lil bo peep huh didnt know thats a real thing oh yeah that reminds me - when Lily gets mad, does she speak in some dialect? I remember she screamed something weird during exams(not sure though) and a few more times early on, was wondering what the original was >spoiler The phrasing of Chiyoko's initial line was really well done since the emotion in it carries the rest of the conversation/scene. There's many ways to phrase it that just wouldn't have the same impact. >19 chapters between the scene and the joke kek no wonder I didn't remember it

>>1228562 >the original not necessarily the original line, just in general whether it was kansai or english or something else

>>1228264 It's pretty good yes. The way things play out in the end tends to filter people though.

>>1228562 Lily talks normally most of the time but once in while she lets her Kyushu dialect slip out. She's referred to as a foreigner so often that sometimes you forget she's just a Japanese country girl.

One Day Left Until Oppai!!! Oppai Bunny sales benefits are starting to sell out before release day (other games being released tomorrow not seeing the same) Oppai WON

>>1229252 HFK

>>1229252 >>1229348 >>1229711

>>1229252 my chinpo is ready.

I fucking love Demonbane so much

Cute last girl. Autistic, though. I thought it's a kuudere but I think she's just the super shy type. damn.

>>1230072 Nukigebros...we won.

Mao has serious competition in the cuteness department now. Sexo suit. One of the better ones. Once again gotta appreciate how faithful the text and formatting stays to the og, can practically hear the words.

>Luna was just chilling with Yui Cute and lewd. >new girl is a Chiyokoschizo >tail energy suction uoh. A ryona sprite so powerful I can not only visualize the harapan but also hear her cough and gag at the moment of impact. its some specific VA im associating with her but I can't quite figure out which.

>>1230771 >ate my images

I want an all loli oppai academy game... CP heaven

>>1230771 >ate my images

So I've started Succubus Academy. Who is the /vn/ certified heroine? Elze seems ultra cute marriage material

>brings out a graph Tsuki;Re was late to the party >Kaname apparently wags her tail while transformed cute.... >3rd image not technically a spoiler but still spoilered She did WHAT. kek I thought this game was out of surprises by now

>>1230983 >third technically first image now. You'd think they would have improved their throughput by now, its been a couple days

>dead before first combat So this is the power of balance... >cant even get in on the action the cuck pit deepens

>>1230969 The baby crazy elf mogs the rest pretty hard, especially her last scene with the time lapse impregnation. Maso knight and the robutt are close second and third for me personally.

How do people actually play Nukige regularly? Do you just stop after the h-scene, go do something with your day, then come back the next day until the second h-scene? Or do you just ctrl through h-scenes until you get to something you really like and then once again take a break until the next day?

>>1231310 You go for 10 hour edge sessions.

>>1231338 Are you serious? Is that really what these games are made for? Lengthy edge sessions?

>>1231310 I read nukige for the writing tbqh

>>1231441 But so much of the game is h-scene after h-scene. I'm liking the in-between lore dumps and flirty chats with the girls but ironically once they start sucking you off I kinda lose interest until impregnation gets brought up.

>>1231310 Git gud

>>1231441 kuru2 is a kamige, not nukige

minecraft lookin ass

>>1231370 Some crazy bastard got banned on reddit after he managed to learn japanese(N1) in less than 2 years because the mods got mad he actually learnt japanese by consuming porn and they still were N3 retards lmao

Retsu is so fucking cool.... >Kaname literally /vn/

>>1232382 Half the dialogue is about some iku girl who's apparently coming soon. Occasionally I hear about Chinko-kun and Chikubi who come out to play.

These girls have such erotic bodies that I really don't understand how they go about their day to day life... You're telling me that there's a whole ass sexual organ under that tiny strip of cloth? Why are they not all over each other like they do in any normal all girl's school? How does mc-kun not pop immediately in all these scenarios?

Oppai bunny tomorrow.

swedish marmalade heroine doko

>>1235441 In the doghouse.

Long shot prediction: the Swedish heroine in the new Marmalade is the sex friend route.

>>1227332 It doesn't particularly matter which game you want to play from them. But there are teeny tiny references to the previous games every now and then that you don't really realize unless you've played the last game. Like how some heroines are related to heroines in the previous games, or the constant Catherine E.Romancia simping in OA2.

>>1235527 The new writer actually gives me hope that there WON'T be a sex friend route this time around. Unless that one guy at Marmalade with the sex friend/mommy fetish is actually the big boss or something

>>1234790 Please be respectful of those of us who have full time jobs and may not be able to start the game until well after it's out and don't spoil me on all the h-scenes. I want to go in blind and jerk it totally unspoiled. >>1236060 I think the guy with the mommy fetish and the guy with the sex friend brainrot are two different writers, they're never the same heroine. AlsoI have no problem with the mommy fetish guy but loathe the sex friend guy with all of my soul.

>>1236103 >Please be respectful of those of us who have full time jobs and may not be able to start the game until well after it's out and don't spoil me on all the h-scenes. Don't worry, I have a full-time job, too. Assuming it gets uploaded promptly tomorrow, I'm not gonna post much about it until after work.

>>1231089 Sakuyabros...

>>1231310 >Do you just stop after the h-scene, go do something with your day, then come back the next day until the second h-scene? The way I realize a nukige playthrough is that (typically) breaks between H-scenes are separated by a rest period, like a day's rest or so. This is where you can afford to put the game down and come back when you're horny again, since even the characters fucking are taking time to recover. If you marathon a nukige you're only going to burn yourself out.

What now?

>>1236920 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubPWaDWcOLU

>>1236920 We move to >>>/vn/

>>1236920 Nothing? Doesn't seem particularly directed at us or keen on forcing people to move

>>1231696 this guy sucks ass, but his girl is top tier.

>>1236920 What AIdono said. We're not going anywhere.

>>1237121 is that the textual representation of the wind current? The fabled japanese writing...

>>1235527 Last time it was Finnish, so I guess all the sex fiends in Marmaladeges are European

>>1237802 They're all sex fiends bubby

>>1237840 Mrgrgr... It irks me that I can't deny that statement.

rizna is so pretty

>>1237867 Ushio's small, tight body...

A see you soon message has manifested itself back in 4chan, guess it won't matter anyways.

>>1237924 we're all gonna go back! yatta!

>>1237867 Ushio route was so syrupy sweet it was unbearable by the end. Whenever I see her I get a mental image of trying to swim through gluey pussy juice and semen.

>>1237937 Ah... I get you. But still, there's a reason why she was ranked first amongst all the other routes in Marmalade's own poll. That syrupy sweetness is exactly what most moebuta like myself wants.

>>1237930 I'd rather not. >>1237924 Can't tell if that means it'll be up sooner rather than later

>>1237924 It'll probably be back this weekend >>1237949 I'm still mad that was the one game they decided to NOT give the winner of the poll a FD

>>1237988 Imagine having a FD about the shortest onee-san ever... Aaaaah...

>>1237924 /vn/... home...

>>1237988 >It'll probably be back this weekend So close yet it still feels so far away.

Dunno why'd anyone want to go back to spam, lack of and outright disconnected moderation, rigid report forms, no rangebans on shitholes, no sound, image and filesize limit, inability to post nsfw without catbox and probably a few more downgrades

>>1238060 >no sound okay, i can relate. i have never heard a single soundpost from any of the posts I've seen while I'm there... But I also don't want to be ID'd all the time while I'm here, too. If this place removes the ID thing I'd happily choose this as my new place-to-be

>no rangebans on shitholes Fuck you censorship apologist. Any non local board with rangebans is shit by default.

fuck, some cp peddler raided the sturdychan thread

I wish yu-no was my daughter

>>1238110 Not sure if one posts means a raid but I'm not a fan of him either.

>>1238110 It's a bot

>>1238156 my bad, but it's kinda weird that it targeted /vn/ of all places

cease this dialogue

>>1238072 > If this place removes the ID thing I'd happily choose this as my new place-to-be 8chan has boards without IDs, too. We'd just have to move over.

>>1238167 >my bad, but it's kinda weird that it targeted /vn/ of all places Nah, if I were to post it somewhere in sturdy I'd definitely go for /v/'s /vn/.

>>1238072 Just stop being self conscious about it. Everyone knew who was who in generals anyway. >>1238086 t.spammer

>>1238260 Not me.

>>1238060 Because IDs suck and this shithole is too slow. All mods are powertripping weirdos so it's better if the moderation is minimal.

>>1238260 >t.spammer Spammers don't care about your rangebans, bubby. At any moment of time I can download one of those VPN botnets with residential ips, pay $5 and start spamming this thread from your IPS until 8chan rangeban (You). And 8chan is rangeban happy because, according to board owner, it's weak. Apparently half of the France is banned lol.

>>1238260 Hm, to be fair I just drop by when I get time off work. It's not like I'm chronically online in this place

>>1238060 I'm pretty sure the only actual reason people use 4chan is because it's where you get the most posters. Because the actual site itself is basically pure shit, to the point where people run extensions just for the sake of quality of life improvements.

Wow, that's hot.

>>1238443 Yeah and it was echoed constantly over the years. It's also going to get worse when it comes back up since I doubt the quality posters will want to move now. >>1238370 Most ban evading kiddy spammers don't have the money to pay for a VPN in the first place. You clearly have no clue about pricing or that they can see it's a VPN so no innocent users from the area will be caught up. Specific VPN exit nodes can be banned too. It's okay though, the same ban evasion timers as 4 had but longer are in consideration in case spammers make this their home.

>>1238463 I want to sniff. Holy sexo. Hope he fucks her again before or at least in the shower

>>1238507 >Most ban evading kiddy spammers don't have the money to pay for a VPN in the first place Broski...shartyteens use Tuxler and it's free. I think you don't understand what's "residential ip" means. Google it.

>>1238463 I forgot this was a dedicated pissge

>>1238703 To be fair, it's only Kazari who pisses like an absolute child. It's weird that the girl who's supposed to be the most influential girl in school is also the most incompetent one - even the chuunibyou beats her in common sense.

You now remember disillusion and kirameku namida wa hoshi ni

Hey /vn/, First post here, be gentle. Or don't. I probably deserve whatever comes after what I just experienced. So picture this: Kevin Anderson (yes, that's literally his full name from Facebook, white bread and all) messages me out of the blue like "bro you gotta try this anime game." I'm expecting some cheap mobile gacha trash, but no - he sends me down the Angel Beats rabbit hole. 8 hours later and I'm: Sitting in my gaming chair surrounded by empty Mountain Dew cans Trying to explain to my cat why I'm crying over pixel girls Questioning all my life choices that led to this moment This game hits different when you go in blind. Like, one minute you're laughing at the dumb band antics, next minute you're getting emotionally sucker-punched by backstories. That moment when you realize everyone's dead but they're still out here living their best afterlife? Bruh. Special shoutout to: Yui for being the chaotic energy I aspire to TK for making zero sense but being iconic anyway That soundtrack that won't stop living in my head rent-free Kevin from Facebook, you absolute madlad. You knew exactly what you were doing sending me here. I both love and resent you right now. Anyway, /vn/, what's the protocol here? Do I: A) Immediately replay to get all routes B) Take a week to emotionally recover C) Track down Maeda-sensei and demand answers Asking for a friend. (The friend is me. I'm not okay.)

>>1239436 (A) all the way.
