You've may have heard of Blizzard entertainment, you can refer to their definition of soon.
Could've been worse, could've been by Square Enix's definition of soon

Playing Harukoi Otome and am currently on Umi's route. There are some funny scenes but I'm honestly pretty bored so far as alot of the scenes I've come across are so padded and so cliche I'm mainly speed reading. I have just come across one particularly amusing thing though: drunken Yuika sounds exactly like Matsukaze (and yes I realize it's the same VA).

Just finished Kyonyuu Majo and I have very mixed feelings about it. The game has two possible storylines to follow and the first one has good writing with believable character development and a satisfying conclusion but the other storyline is shockingly awful with unresolved plot issues, a villain with no dimension what so ever, plot revelations that come way too late, and a conclusion that's just plain stupid instead of satisfying
-
9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors and its sequel Virtue's Last Reward if you liked Ever 17 as it's from the same creator.

Haven't played this game though I have heard it's good; hope you have an emulator handy though:
-
Fate/Stay Night and Blazblue: Continuum Shift Extend for making death so funny and the Kansen games (except Ball Buster) for providing some nice ero scenes to accompany death. Not sure if I should count 999's because you actually have to get those

Guess when Meikyuu's patch is out I'll just play the after stories and hold off on the main story until the third game's patch translating starts. I think I'll be able to handle the waiting then, I mean I've been able to handle cliffhanger endings to TV shows (like the recent season finale for Sleepy Hollow) and movie trilogies and back in the days of VCRs I endured the time between each VHS release of episodes of Dragonball Z so I somehow doubt Meikyuu will be that bad.
-
Excellent news, now the waiting begins.

Critical Point for what's available in english
Shinsetsu Ryouki no Ori 1 and 2 for the untranslated stuff:

While not really a VN, the Growlanser games have the artwork you're looking for and are close enough that I'd recommend them if you don't mind gameplay (and have a console or emulator to play them)
-
Soul Link kind of has what you're looking for as does Critical Point (only have a review for the former).

Demonbane also kind of fits your bill but it's a pretty long game.

Otoboku has a decent route for its loli heroine and strangely she has the most ero scenes (and the kinkier ones too)
http://gamesforadultsandeveryone.blogspot.com/2013/07/games-for-adults-otome-wa-boku-ni.html
The Sagara Famiy's loli heroine also has a pretty decent route for its loli heroine, especially if you want ero scenes.
Of course if you want a game with a loli heroine with pretty kinky ero scenes then Eroge! is probably worth your time.

I'll back some of these up with reviews by yours truly:
The Da Capo games are lighthearted enough.

If you don't mind gameplay then Princess Waltz is definitely worth playing though I should point out the story is 99.9% linear.
http://gamesforadultsandeveryone.blogspot.com/2012/10/games-for-adults-princes-waltz.html
Another one worth playing if you don't mind gameplay is Koihime Musou, though the gameplay isn't really complicated or difficult.
http://gamesforadultsandeveryone.blogspot.com/2012/10/games-for-adults-koihime-musou-heart.html
Moero Downhill Night 1 and 2 are pretty good, though the second game is alot better than the first:

http://gamesforadultsandeveryone.blogspot.com/2012/10/games-for-adults-moero-downhill-night-2.html
Come See Me Tonight 2 is pretty good, better than the first game which is just okay.

i still don't understand how that's supposed to be scary. Never really understood how a lot "scary" comics, books, and manga are actually frightening, it's only interesting to me.
Basically it's a jump scare, admittedly a decent one if only because of how it's placed. For a good explanation of jump scares, I think Spoony explains it better for the first few minutes of this video:

The first Kansen game could use a remake with some better graphics and it would be interesting to see what they could add to it storywise.
Would really be interested in seeing some of the Sakura Taisen series get a remake if only to increase a chance to see it localized (and since Atlus is part of Sega now...).
elf's older titles like Koihime and el I'd definitely like to see remade. Mainly because their OVAs have me curious as to what they could be like.
Speaking of which, one OVA that had me interested in seeing the original game was Moke Moke Taishou Dendou Musume Arisa:
Couldn't find the game for sale anywhere and finally found a pirated copy...only to find it doesn't work on any computer made after its release date
(and believe me I've tried different computers ). So yeah the only reason I want this remade is so I can actually play the thing -
Here's a few technical details I don't like:
1) When on a different route you can't skip through previously read text for what's basically a previously read scene because in this case while the content is pretty much identical there are one or two different sentences in this route that wasn't in the previous one.
2) When the skip function isn't able to discern text you've read from the text you haven't be it because of lack of such a function, meaning if you select skip it'll skip every text even if you haven't read it.
3)When a game has no scene recollection

Speaking of S' music, anyone besides me think that there's a part of this one track (it's the one that usually plays when the characters are hanging out outside(in the track section of the extras it's on the second page and a little past halfway down the right side) that sounds a little like part of Final Fantasy 13's battle music?

And what's the general opinion on headless protagonists?
-
Another one would be Kazoku Keikaku. It was so... Slow and exhaustiating. I just played the loli route and dropped it with a passion before even finishing it.
I applaud you for even making it that far; between an unlikable protagonist (I've seriously encountered protagonists in rape eroge more likable), the over reliance on Norio Wakamoto's character for the humor, and the blandest slice of life scenes I stopped before I think the common route was even close to halfway done.

From the looks of things it seems to be referring to a mobile game, though bear in mind my Japanese literacy is probably comparable to a Japanese kindergartener at best
-
Just curious, but is that Autumn eroge scene a reference to an actual game that was made?
-
Deredere for me
-
1) When a heroine being a tsundere is used as a get out of jail free card for constant douchebaggery (curse you Love Hina for making that popular!!
)2) When the title part of "pervert protagonist" is run into the ground.
3) True endings that flat out retcon or completely ignore the other routes (only applies to games where the routes are supposed to be their own stories, not games where the routes are meant to be false or a piece of a story puzzle like with the Infinity or Zero Escape series)
