Synopsis

You awaken in a decrepit old mansion.

A woman with eyes of jade stands before You, informing You that You are the Master of the house, and she Your Maid. However, You have no memories, no concept of self—or, indeed, any certainty that You are even alive. The Maid invites You to join her on a journey through the mansion's lifeless halls, to behold the numerous tragedies that have befallen its residents. She suggests that among them, perhaps You will find some trace of Yourself.

Well-written

"Sometimes, we uncover the most profound lessons about love and life within the depths of tragedy."

Story: 10/10
The House in Fata Morgana's story is like a beautiful setting for a play. At its core, Fata Morgana is a tragic love story spanning multiple generations. As the narrative progresses, more and more layers are revealed, unveiling a masterfully constructed literary complexion permeated with myriad nuances and perfectly polished to give the viewer a deep sense of satisfaction when each of its mysteries are uncovered. Each story arc is intricately woven into the overarching plot, leading to a revelation that will leave you awe-struck and emotionally moved. ... Throughout the story, you will be confronted with thought-provoking themes of fate, hope, identity, revenge, forgiveness, and most prominently, love. Its avant-garde method of storytelling was perfectly executed. The prose is poetic, though, unlike a picturesque, Shakespearean tragedy. It's raw, harsh, and unembellished. Humans can be deplorable, and Fata Morgana does not hide this fact. Though unforgiving in this regard, the juxtaposition of pure sorrow and unparalleled happiness is what got me invested in the series. The only aspect of this story that people may find undesirable is its slow-paced writing requires much patience. However, this is necessary to build up the story's masterful climaxes.

Characters: 10/10
The most compelling part of Fata Morgana is its characters. They are complex, multi-dimensional, and beautifully developed. The characterization is subtle yet profound, mainly through small talk and other forms of dialogue. From this process, you eventually learn to know the characters deeply and personally. You understand their idiosyncrasies and characteristics, and they become more than pixels on a screen. You start empathizing with them, feeling their pain, and even crying. Some of my favorite moments in the series were casual small talk. These brief moments of happiness made everything so much more painful to see it all crumble. They may seem insignificant to some, but without them, the story would lose any weight; it would be utterly superficial. But the depth the characters bring to Fata Morgana is what makes it so evocative. The main character, in particular, is my favorite person in all fiction. And not because he's perfect; he's far from it. But it's through his individuality, flaws, and shortcomings and how he tries to overcome them that you begin to see him as a human. The same goes for Jacopo, who, sometimes, isn't even a good person. But it's through his circumstances and flaws that we see a surprisingly timid man and a great character. Finally, while I can't say much about the antagonist, I will say they have one of the most tragic backstories… ever. Overall, I can't praise the characters in this story enough. They aptly portray concepts like insanity, grief, greed, and love. The relationships they form are filled with joy and heartbreak, leaving a lasting impact on the viewer long after the book is finished.

Visuals: 9/10
Everything from the beautiful covers to the fantastic illustrations, this light novel looks great, perfectly complementing the exceptional story.

Enjoyment: 10/10
Fata Morgana was entirely enthralling; not once did I find myself bored or disinterested, especially towards the latter half of the LN. The suspense was practically palpable, keeping you on the edge of your seat. However, Fata Morgana can be gut-wrenching and hard to read. But while the story is full of sorrow and suffering, that only amplifies and adds more worth to the moments of ecstasy and happiness. After all, a story devoid of tragedy and contention is nothing but a superficial fantasy.

Overall: 10/10
The House in Fata Morgana is an experience. An experience you won't see replicated anywhere else in fiction. An experience spanning a millennium. An experience drenched in tragedy and tribulation. An experience permeated by love and joy. It's not something you'll forget in weeks, months, or even years. It's not ephemeral and will leave a lasting impression on those who embark on this journey through time and space, delivering an unforgettable, remarkable literary tale.

Haha, seriously, how can i possibly say about The House in Fata Morgana ? I'll talk about both the light novel and the visual novel, both are peak. Let's just say Fata is about 8 door, the main character will have to go through those doors, each door has it's own story and tales with the length probably more than 3 hours, all of that tales and story all happend in the same manor in each era of time, here is a little review :
- Door 1 : ( 5/10 )
The story tells us about the complicated relationship between the two Rhodes brothers, and Nell ... Rhodes's feelings for a mysterious white-haired girl. At the end there will be a plot twist, the pacing is very slow, the plot is nothing too special, but the plot twist is quite engaging and quite engaging, the characters are not too special. , it's normal and bland
- Door 2 : ( 7/10 )
Personally, I quite like this door, telling the story of a beast trying to integrate with humans, eliminating his bloodthirsty instinct, but it increasingly fails and becomes more bloodthirsty than before, but gradually changes. when he meets a mysterious white-haired girl. The plot is really disturbing and suspenseful, the plot twist of this door is even more shocking and better than door 1, some characters are exploited quite well like Pauline, and near the end, the monster's true identity will shock you
- Door 3 : ( 6,5/10 )
A story about an awkward cycle between two couples, Jacopo and the mysterious white-haired girl. This door exploits character psychology and emotions quite well, but when it comes to the plot, it's really not too thrilling, some of the episodes and the past are very boring, on the other hand, the plot twist will happen at this time. appears in the middle of the story instead of at the end as usual, but the emotions of the character in question are quite captivating and worth reading
- Door 4 : ( 4/10 )
This is probably the most boring door in the whole series, but its boredom has a purpose, because unlike other doors, the story it tells is not real but is created by the main villain ( the owner of the manor )made up by herself. One point is that the character are not well-tell since the pacing is too fast and not quite emotional. BUT TRUST ME, after going through this door, the novel will bring you to the gate of heaven, ONE OF THE BEST PIECE OF FICTION OF ALL TIME, im not joking
~~~ Ok, probably you may be wonder, why is there's a white-haired girl in every single tales ? Is she immortal ? No, those girl are 4 different person and their true identity may shock you out ~~~
- Door 5 : ( 9,25 /10 )
Ahh, here we come the 2 best written characters of all series, Michel and Giselle, tells the story of Giselle's unlucky and incomprehensibly miserable situations, and the mysterious problems that Michel is facing. Maybe from the beginning, the two people seem strange and even dislike each other, but Fate brought the two people together, but at the end of the story, a tragedy occurred. Each detail and situation it presents is captivating, breathtaking and dramatic, it is inexplicably touching. The emotions and psychology of both characters (but mainly about Giselle) are mentioned very well, trust me and play until door 5 and by then, even if you want to quit, you can't. It actually made me cry in some scenes and had a great impact on the reader's emotions
- Door 6 : ( 8,5/10 )
Instead of continuing other stories like the previous doors, door 6 continues the story of the previous door. Exploiting Giselle's psychology and anticipation in waiting for the man her love dearly to come back, the plot twist of this door is closely linked to the first 3 doors. And at this point you realize: THEY'RE ALL CONNECTED, THEY'RE NOT SOME STRANGES STORY AND RANDOM TALES, THEY'RE ALL CONNECTED. The incredibly cruel introduction of Morgana (the main villain) takes readers to a deeper level of emotions and character building, each detail in the story from this door onwards never disappoints. or bores the readers
Morgana's backstory : ( 9,5/10 )
Although her past review after door 6 which is still in arc door 6, but i still wanna divide into a single review. Her backstory can be summed up in just one word: Suffering. All her origin, her childhood, her journey is nothing but pain. Refers to a deeper layer of her religious beliefs and her beliefs and thoughts towards it. Exploited very deeply about Fata's world building, a world with many problems at that time, each situation, story, arc all exploited the psychology and emotions of the characters at that time very well. , what is the character thinking at that time and how intense is the ideological struggle. Literally one of the best backstory i've ever read
- Door 7 ( 9,5 /10 )
The story that this door refers to is the problematic past of Michel (door 5's character). Not being able to follow the path he wanted from birth, having to follow the path set by others, Michel decided Act according to your heart. If it comes to situations and details, it is also built quite well but not too well, but each character's psychology and emotions when inside the door and after escaping the door are very very good, most of them feel very good. Readers' emotions and tears will fall on this arc, when the hearts of two people, despite different circumstances but with the same fate, come together, a love so beautiful that it's hard to describe
- Door 8 - The final door ( 10/10 )
Seriously, if you made it this far, congratulations, you met the top tier drama here, in this door you can interact with the previous door's character, have a deeper understand about their feelings, their ACTUAL story, what have they going through. The characters are heartbreaking, phenomenal, and incredibly well-written. It features one of the best written antagonist I have ever seen, with dynamics that are nearly perfect between Michel and Giselle. The arc is truly something else, the emotion, the touching that too damn hard to describe by words, the ending is so beautiful and very emotional

The House in Fata Morgana is one of the best novel/VN i've ever played or read, I would highly recommend you this piece of fiction. The emotion, the tears that it takes from you is real, it's something so beautiful

"No, Giselle,
Don't Worry
You don't have to wait anymore"

Spoiler

"Events by themselves do not tell the whole story. Only when you take into account their circumstances, what they thought and felt, their perspectives—only then can you say you've reached the truth."

A morally wrapped odyssey of redemption.

Emotional connectivity with characters is something hard to come by in any medium. Being aware that the stories are nothing more than fiction made by another humans no different than you, but regardless of this fact, still getting attached to their struggles, past, ambitions, hope, ideals and very life itself, truly makes a show memorable that somehow impacts us. It's an experience which quite rather hard to describe that ...
