Busy week for me IRL, and I was breaking ground on new routes, both Mii and Kozue, which always takes time, so I didn't make too much progress on the editing side. Similarly, it was a little bit slower week than I would have expected on the TL side (actually it's about average, numerically, but that's because Frog was kicking ass, numerically) because our lead TL wrapped up Kozue's route, and wrapping up a route also takes time. He'll also be wrapping the ending route soon, which will take some time, so next week will probably look a little sub-par again, but we should return to the normal swing of things by week after next.
At any rate, here's the numbers. Many GitLab administrators died to bring us this information:

So,  Gahkthun was my introduction to Liar-Soft's "Beautiful"/Steampunk series, and I must say I am very much looking for all this series has to offer. Anyhoo, Gahkthun was a very rich experience: I was hyping this game to no end, and as it finally marathoned it in about 3 days (or about 27-ish hours). I was feeling very fufilled but also quite empty after this adventure. As this game is at the moment fresh in my mind, I though it would be a great time to tell you beautiful people my honest feelings for this game. Now then, let us begin.
Story
The story of Gahkthun is a rather good one. Basically, one man declares a rebellion against the leading force of Marceilles Offshore Academia, the Governing Counil, and within, the leaders, The Supreme Six. Before that our dear protagonist, Nikola Tesla, saves our main heroine, Neon Scalar Smilja. Together these two solve all sorts of supernatural mysteries, evildoers, and perhaps, maybe something even more vile. The story progresses at an comfortable pace and introduces characters in a pace that isn't too fast nor too slow. As the story progresses it never gets stale and keeps getting progressively more serious, but also gives the player breathers so that the player can chew what has just happened. Gahkthun Brings many odd titles and names, which for me brought great deal of confusion, but Gahkthun has a handy Encyclopedia to look up these alien terms and names, so they shouldn't prove any major issues. At the start Gahkthun has a lot of loose ends. These loose ends get enlightened when the story progresses, but most of them are in sow form connected to the chapter you're reading. In the final chapter, all the loose ends that are leftover (there are a lot) get answered, and the conclusions are earth-shattering, at least for me, giving the story fulfillment. The ending of Gahkthun is nothing extremely special, but gives you fulfillment, completion. A happy end, in other words. I quite enjoyed the ending of Gahkthun. Honestly, Gahkthun is kind of shounen-esque and repetitive, but as it was fresh to me, I liked it. 
Characters
Almost all of the characters in Gahkthun are either interesting or enjoyable, if not both. One of the main characters, Tesla is hands-down my favorite MC to this day. Neon had her fair share of cringe-worthy moments, but I overall liked her in the end. The Governing Council's Supreme Six all have unique individualistic personalities and traits with clear motives most of the time, making them all quite likeable, some more than others. Other minor characters have their moments, but most of them are rather bland, but still somewhat likeable in the end. Extra mentions to the stern, yet kind Anna, always cheerful Izumi, and the kind and sweet Odenne. Characters are for the most part fantastic.
Voice Acting
The voice acting in Gahkthun is great. All of the characters voices are well fleshed out and quite good. As Gahkthun has a lot of fighting scenes, the voices don't sound awkward in those, rather they sound aggressive, intense and serious, just how they should. Voice acting in the H-scenes is average: In some scenes it is great, but in some scenes it sounds awkward. Most of the time awkward, but at the same time really well done. But they aren't a major part of the story, nor the voice acting, it shouldn't pose as something you can't overcome. 
Art
Art in Gahkthun is maybe the best I have ever seen in a Visual Novel. The lines are crisp, the colors are vibrant and colorful, full of emotion. The character designs are somehow in the norm, yet different. They are fantastic: The eyes, proportions, robust, anatomy, almost everything. The CGs are really well made and usually have action-like cut-ins, which are nice. As said before, the fighting scenes are made beautifully with the help of these vibrant, intense CGs. The H-scenes' art is rather average comprared to the rest of Gahkthun. They have only one or two still-picture CGs, but they are brilliantly colored and the faces are really well done, albeit these scenes' art is somewhat dull. The backgrounds are done extremely well.
Writing
The writing in Gahkthun is honestly the best I have seen in a long time in a VN. The words make the dialogue flow rather nicely, it is easy to follow and the lines aren't cramped nor full, just spacious and easy on the eye. The translation was very well done, professional work, however I felt that the translation was kind of over-explaining things. When I listened to the Japanese voice acting, sometimes the lines we're almost doubled in contrast to the voice acting, and sometimes the voices ended way before I finished reading the lines through, which doesn't happen often to me. This however is just minor nitpicking, and shouldn't affect the experience, but for me it did, even if it did for just a little bit..
Music
Gahkthun's music was great. Most of the tracks were great for background music and for creating an atmosphere, but nothing more. The OP, ED and two fighting scene tracks are good enough for me to listen them when doing something else. 
UI and Mechanics
The UI and mechanics we're slightly different than usual. The Encyclopedia is one thing, and that is almost for all the mechanics, which is rather disappointing for an expansive, fleshed out world like this on, but it still is more than your average VN. The UI was honestly a let-down. The placement of the different buttons was cleverly made, but the negatives outweighs the positives for the most. There is no backlog per se, there just is the past dialogue if you scroll up or press the button. The Auto mode works rather well, but disables itself if you press anything and skips to the next line, which was a little annoying when I was playing through it. Other than that it had an average UI, nothing special. 
Settings
These were really lackluster. They were as bare-bones as you could get. The simplest sound settings: just sliders. Fullscreen or 600x800 windowed, nothing special. Text speed has three options. Honestly, I would've hoped for a slider, but oh well, you get what you get. Disappointing, to say the least.
 
So, when all that is rated, Gahkthun gets an 9 from me. This VN is truly fantastic in my opinion. I have not been interested in a VN in a long time, and Gahkthun honestly surprised me in its quality. This Visual Novel more than deserves all the hype it has accumulated. I am honestly glad that it was my introduction to this "Beautiul" series, and I will not stop here. I hope you too will go get Gahkthun and enjoy it just as much as I did. Trust me, it is really good.

Hey everyone!
I am glad to announce that @RedK finished translating the Tsugumi route yesterday!
With that we also surpassed the 50% translation mark

Go for If my heart had wings. I think that despite its bad rumors and localization, it was still a good VN.
EDIT: Kinda didn't notice that you already have it in your list, so nvm

Try 11eyes and Tokyo Babel if you interested in action. If not, perhaps Himawari and Root Double could be good if you're into sci fi. Hope those recommendations could be help to you.

"a few" *has played more than me
I'm just going to go ahead and recommend Tsukihime just because I didn't see it on your list. 
I like your picture BTW. 

Dracu-Riot! Completion Project
Project Info:
As i said in a previous post, if the Dracu-Riot scripts were released, I will translate Miu's route, and that's exactly what I'm announcing in this thread.
But I'm not alone in this crusade, I've partnered with the wonderful people at The Oxford Comma is Superior Subs so we can deliver the best possible final product and lay the Dracu-Riot memes to rest. We also got several people from the Fuwanovel community to help speed up things even more.
How is the project going to go down, you ask. Well you can read this post if you want detailed info, but the tl;dr version is that we are aiming to release multiple patches.
The first patch aims to translate the remainder of Miu's route as well as any remaining untranslated content (images, menus, etc.) with complete editing to polish the current patch.
We are going to try and release this in about 2 months, if everything goes according to plan.
The second patch is meant to be more heavily translation checked as that's when Fiddle has enough free time to go over the whole game.
There is no ETA for this second patch.
This doesn't mean the first patch will be terrible, we will of course strive for a good product, but we would still like to inform you of our schedule. If we waited for Fiddle to be completely free, it would take much more time to release Miu's route, and so we've decided to do it this way.
I hope you look forward to future updates.
FAQ:
Why not just make a Miu partial patch, why do you want to go over the whole game?
There are actually 3 main reasons for this:
The first and biggest one is that Insem's patch only works with the physical version of Dracu-Riot! which is very hard to get in the West and we want to make a new patch that works on both the physical and digital versions of the game, this way people can purchase the digital version and patch it, thus supporting Yuzusoft. The second one is that we want to americanize the writing style as well as make sure everything is edited properly, because Insem didn't have time to finish the whole thing. The last one is translation checking. Although we don't doubt Insem's abilities, we really want to try and make sure the translation is accurate. We also want to include translation notes in the game. Only 2 months? That seems way too fast.
2 months is indeed fast, if we were translating the entire game, but we're actually only translating about 4,000 lines and we're splitting those lines between two main translators, this will hopefully make that 2 month deadline possible.
Please do note we will not jeopardize translation quality for the sake of reaching the deadline. If we can not make it in time, we will delay the release until we're satisfied with the end result.
Will the translation have memes?
Yes, but only the dankest ones.
Why aren't The Oxford Comma people making the announcement here?
So I can get those sweet, sweet internet points.
I want to help!
Contact @Fiddle and beat him in a pipe bag showdown (plaid skirt is mandatory).

A is a series of games with more routes for characters that didn't get them on Majikoi or Majikoi S thus far there's A1 all through A5, it is said that A6 will be made but nothing is known for sure.
Though at the moment only A1 and A2 are being translated, what the future holds who knows though, i'm hoping all of them will be translated eventually

Eclipsed already recommended it, but I'll chip in another vote for KonoSora / If My Heart Had Wings; given your VNDB votes and what you say you like, I think it's a perfect fit.

That depends Majikoi S is not as solid as Majikoi though i myself still enjoyed it quite a bit, that being said there's those who hate it  too, i'd say think about it and decide if you want to play it or not..it expands on the routes from Majikoi's Main girls and adds a whole bunch of other routes for characters that didn't have one on Majikoi...after S there's also the A series which is going to be translated, at least A1 for now is being translated.
Wanko (the absolutely adorable girl on my profile picture) is to me the best route on Majikoi followed by Momoyo (her sister) and Mayucchi

Either Wanko's or Momoyo's those are in my opinion the best two but Mayucchi comes close aswell.
Also no problem you can play them later or not at all, that's your choice i'm just giving advice 

Yeah Sepia Tears... I'll always recommend that one. You play over a week worth of events and the protagonists are very good, especially the girl. She really scored with me. ST is also available for Android.

Go for it, Majikoi is great..glad you enjoyed PE though the best routes from that one would be Ayaka and Ritsuko, at least in my opinion

One short, nice one is Sepia Tears
And other one I like is Corpse Party, but that is in the horror genre, so it might not suit you.

Read Euphoria, there is a really amazing story if you can get by the disturbing sex scenes at the start

You can always read dustmania  (don't click on the spoiler images, dont! xD )
read sharin no kuni, it doesnt have many of the things you want but the story and the characters are great

Classy happy high school modern VNs to read would be Princess Evangile, Noble Works, Kono Sora, Koi Rizo.

Happy high school that turns Supernatural/superpower-fate-of-the-world would be Rewrite

No problem man. I just want to spread around those two VNs for people to appreciate or hate them. As long as people try them, I'm good. 

Demonbane is a must read.

Let's get on with it with the obvious ones
 
Ourai no Gahkthun
Sekien no Inganock
Shikkoku no Sharnoth
 
Then with the lesser choices
 
Dracu-Riot
Princess Evangile
Comyu
Deardrops
 

Muv Luv...... read it....... READ IT

Just like I said in your introduction thread, I recommend G Senjou No Maou and the Kara No Shoujo series.

Yeah Majikoi is great,  Coμ - Kuroi Ryuu to Yasashii Oukoku -  also damn good , G-Senjou no Maou, Muv-Luv , Steins;Gate too...those are just some that come to mind that sort of fit what you seek...there's other genres and things for sure but i think you'd like those

Huh... Welcome tu Fuwa! Like you I have little experience with english and these things are helping me to improve it.  Anyway, I hope we get along and you enjoy you stay. 

Hello Avernesh and welcome. I am the Virgin Smasher and lover of Kyonyuus.
For VNs, I'd recommend G Senjou No Maou and the Kara No Shoujo series (start with Cartagra if you play it). If mystery isn't your kind of thing, I'd recommend playing Majikoi and Symphonic Rain's last 3 routes.
I hope to see you around.
