Its a VN?! *Higurashi piano sound effect* http://listlessink.wordpress.com/sono-hanabira-ni-kuchizuke-wo-series/ and they're definitely worthwile Watched the OVA. It was the cause of me asking for softcore Yuri instead. Gave it a one point out of 10. What was bothering you about it so much then? Sure the transitioning into the nude scenes wasnt really subtle, but the cute vanilla sex scenes made up for it quite well. Just look at dat face: http://imagizer.imageshack.us/a/img29/2360/5194f.jpg How can you NOT like that? Lol I knew it through a GIF when I looked up hentai as usual. One of the girls forcefully pushed down the other onto the bed and kissed her. Both naked of course. Tone down the nether region licking though and things might change. Also look for another choice of music during the act (or better, don't). Tone down the volume of the moaning. And make them fever-less dammit! Ok that was the licking. |

She even mentioned not doing "ecchi things" because she felt sick, but eventually she gave in because Reo was the only thing on her mind. I can't really do much about the "nether region" licking. They adapted the source material from the VN, so not much can be done about that. I'm actually glad they only adapted the scenes where they go all the way. The OVA is classified as an hentai after all, so those erotic scenes are to be expected. If you want softcore or even softer yuri you might be better off with anime like Candy Boy, Aoi Hana and Sakura Trick. The moaning wasn't a bother for me. It made the love between the two sound even more passionate, hehe. Yeah I'll give you that the music wasn't impressive at all. But when I looked at Reo's face in ecstasy, I immediately forgot about it lol. |

what is the appeal of all-ages ones then If you ever read through Umineko koro ni(VN), Ever 17, Higurashi(VN), Steins;s Gate(VN), Clannad(VN), etc. you would know. |

JD2411 said: Lord_Pooka said: Higurashi is a sound novelThey're good. Everything from the character's perspective is there. My recommendation would be Higurashi though. Inb4 stupid people. A good visual novel to begin with is Katawa Shoujo. It's a good introduction to the medium. I'd also recommend Key Visual Novels such as Kanon and Little Busters Please do NOT play Katawa Shoujo, its awful. Too many people seem to like it just because it was their gateway into visual novels. That does not make any good in any form. Saya No Uta is a good choice if you want something with a lot of gore/horror. School Days is good for a lot of choices, h-scenes if you want that and good romance/comedy. Yume Miru Kusuri has a decent amount of choices, three different heroines and some H. All of these games are much better introductions and aren't complete shit. |

| Nah never did they look kinda really boring. Only thing I played that comes close is a text novel kind of thing called "Corruption of Champions" which is pretty great tough. You can kind of choose your gender and a few starts and over the course of this erotic novel style thing by fighting and drinking strange liquids and having strange encounters you can kinda create your own abomination of a being, like becoming a two-dicked H-cup bee-morph shemale. Also the fights are pokemon style and you can either use brute force, seduction or black magic and when you turn into a beemorph bee-stings and the likes. Its pretty great and I played a bunch of it. But yeah I doubt there are any VNs that great out there and honestly I dont want to play any of those romance games where you have to work to get to one lame tame H-scene. If they made a VN as sick as Corruption of Champions tough... |
Vanisher said: _ultima_ said: No one here cares about those porn games. Not all visual novels are like that. Reminds me of that choice in the renpy visual novel maker's sample VN when the protagonist can tell his love that visual novels are "hentai games where you have lots of sex". Hmm... Yhuuro said: Mai did force her down, but given Reo's tsundere nature, she certainly would've said something about it.

It made the love between the two sound even more passionate, hehe. Yeah I'll give you that the music wasn't impressive at all. But when I looked at Reo's face in ecstasy, I immediately forgot about it lol. Didn't complain about the pushing down body. It looked weirdly too good for a yuri anime and somewhere near cuteness. And like I said that's how I found them in the first place. Yes, indeed, not much can be done about the source material, but I didn't complain about the OVA bringing in that licking from the source material. You could say the same criticism applies to the source material. I don't know why I didn't like them, maybe that's because its the first yuri entry and I was reluctant and didn't like the idea of licking? I think its more of an inner rambling towards the feeling I got from it rather than an opinion of a critical view. Sorry. [url]I made a recommendation thread for softer anime that is short or one episode in other words[/url], though. I couldn't help forgetting the music and looking at anything because... talk about my only conditions for watching yuri: through the phone and with the earphones stuck in my ears, and after midnight when everyone is dead asleep but me. Even at the lowest volume, I could hear everything. En shorte, I think I'll ask for a just as cute but softer yuri. |

| I've only played Katawa Shojo, only did one of the girls routes (The althletic girl with no legs). Most of KS is very long, drawn out, and boring for the most part. It takes fucking forever to feel like your making any progress plotwise (maybe it was just the route I took?). A bunch of people rave about it for whatever reason. Maybe they are referring to the routes with the other girls that I didn't go down hmm? I will say that when you FINALLY get into some more romantic aspects of it, its decent enough. I didn't feel like it was justified waiting that long to get the good shit though. Whats a good VN for someone that only knows english other than KS? One problem I've encountered is looking at some other VN's you have to go through this fucking complicated process to actually switch voices to english even when there is a translation patch, and I'm not computer savvy at all. |

Ace attorney may be the only one that kind of works, but if I am not mistaken muv-luv is this sort of action story, and Id find it rather stupid to click text boxes instead of having actual gameplay with an action story. I mean I should probably try them once before forming a definitve opinion, but my impression of VNs is that they are boring. |

| I haven't played/read/watched (don't know what is the right term) many visual novels but I enjoyed Dysfunctional Systems: Learning to Manage Chaos and the other VNs they have also made. They are short, but they are planning to introduce episode 2 for dysfunctional systems. I also enjoyed Clannad a lot, if you liked the anime then you will probably like the clannad VN as well. |

My point is that it wouldn't increase your reading speed. Why wouldn't it? It's just like reading a book and that has increased my reading speed. There is only so much text you can fit on the screen so your reading will frequently be interrupted. Generally speaking reading from a screen is slower than regular. Besides when you play VNs you won't just pay attention to text but also to the graphics. You could ignore them but what's the point in reading a visual novel then? I suppose it could increase reading speed to a certain degree. But definitely not to 1000 wpm. If you have above average/ high reading speed it will only slow you down. Honestly I don't even know why I am arguing about this. |

Honestly I don't even know why I am arguing about this. I guess that putting my text speed slider in Higurashi (maybe for Umineko too, same engine) on max makes the text instantly show up. Maybe slow a little down with the visual novel? Treat it like a manga, which has pictures and text too? |
