Random VNs: Otomimi Infinity


Clephas

Why did I pick this game to play?  Because, when I went into Shugaten, I was actually wanting a bit of charage goodness.  So, it seriously pissed me off when I got a mindless loli moege.  As a result, I decided to pull out one of my favorite fetish games, Otomimi Infinity. 

Otomimi Infinity is based on island in a world where beast-people and humans live side by side (it isn't mentioned often enough to reinforce this, but the beast-people were originally artificial creations).  On the island, prejudice against the beast-people has gotten so bad that a right-wing politician has managed to get a segregation law passed.  The protagonist, Segawa Yamato, is a beast-girl loving guy (in the sexual sense, and not limited to their humanoid forms, lol) who gets seriously pissed off at the new law.  After a series of events, he ends up working for Otomimi Transport, a company that basically takes care of shipping packages all over the island and from the mainland.  This company is all beast-girls, except for him... (so naturally, he is in heaven)

There are a lot of laughs in this game... in particular the pirate group led by Sango (a side-character shark-girl) and Dr. Forest (real name: Hakumi), a mad scientist who keeps trying to use her high-tech AI android to steal bbq meat from Otomimi Transport's trucks (and failing miserably) stand out as absolutely hilarious.  Not to mention the company's 'mascot', Akuta (which uses the kanji for 'garbage'), a do-M AI implanted in a fat squirrel stuffed animal who can't resist making perverted statements.

I was also surprised in retrospect at how seriously the game handles the elements of prejudice... and the negative elements of Japan's society that show through.  The position of the beast-people is pretty weak, mostly because the average beast-person isn't that good at thinking before acting (those that are are the exception, rather than the rule).  Humans call them 'worthless burdens on society' (it bears an eerie resemblance to the attitude of the US right-wingers to immigrants) and it was apparently really easy to get the segregation law passed.  Also, falling in love with a beast-person and vise-versa is considered perverted, lol.

Anyway, as well as jokes there are some good feels in here... as well as some really good endings (considering that this was written by the same guy who wrote Shikigami, Shiden, and Pretty X Cation 2, that is actually pretty surprising).  For some reason, fetish games sometimes have stories a lot more interesting than the average VN, lol.

The game's heroines are:

Chachako- A clumsy and airheaded dog-girl who somehow always manages to land on her feet, anyway.

Tetora- A tiger-girl who is a scientific genius but categorically incapable of admitting when she doesn't know something or is wrong... or when she is lost (she has no sense of direction).

Kon- A fox-girl whose first love in life is teasing others and getting her way through fast talk.  She is highly intelligent and has a solid grasp of people in general.

Hanemi- A bunny-girl who gets lonely ridiculously easy... and is a speed-demon whenever she gets behind the wheel or control stick of any vehicle whatsoever (thankfully, she is also a genius at using them).

Chizuru- The protagonist's older sister... who has an insane, obsessive brother complex that extends to waiting half-naked in his bed and stalking him whenever she isn't running the family corporation.

Mayoi- A cat-girl and the game's 'true' heroine.  She is a lazy gamer who hates working, has a foul mouth, and who only really cares about the people working at Otomimi Transport. 

Overall, this is a VN for people who love their mimikko.  My first fetish was neko-girls and my second was kitsune, so naturally this game fits me well.  It also has a good, well-told story with a fun set of characters even if you ignore the heroines.

Ah, that's a really good one. It's still on my backlog, though and I never really got to playing it. @Clephas-sama, should I? Should I just drop everything and finally read this one? :makina:

Should you drop everything?  Depends on how much you love mimikko and whether you are playing something you find interesting already.

You should know that already, my love for them is boundless.

I'll have to make some space, but that shouldn't be a problem, considering I practically finished almost everything I wanted for the upcoming month. Thanks for reminding me of this awesome game :holo:
