    If you want more, I guess there's Eiyuu Senki. Also if you interested with the story, there's Utawarerumono as well. I don't know if you already play those two or not, but in case you still didn't play it then I hope my recommendations here will be helpful to you.

    I have played Eiyuu Senki but didn't like the female lead. She was irritating. The game also felt not so involving. I was waiting for Gold but Don't think it'll come before a decade.

    Finished Sengoku Koihime recently. Has a giant harem and the romance is pretty meh because of the number of characters, but thanks to that there are many compelling girls.

    Other than that, umm... Hikari no Umi no Apeiria? Romance is pretty simple, but loved the plot and character interactions.

    You can also go on the Light Novel/Web Novel side and get flooded with harems too. :wahaha:

    When you add the 'Nice' in front of the harem, there are a handful of LNs only.

    Tears to Tiara (english)

    Bunny Black ( 1 & 2 in english)

    Kami no Rhapsody (japanese, with english patch and full release in progress  click -> here)

    Also, try rance VI the collapse of zeth, is one of the best story i ever played in my life, i know, rance have a lot of rape, but this one, VI, have the best story of rance and the best plot. (Really epic)

    Anyway, if we are speaking about evenicle, rance is his brother. You can check other games from alicesoft too.

    Bunny Black is very grindy.

    I don't want something torturous. Also it has a lot of rape.

    I'll check the others thanks

  4. I loved Evenicle except the rape part.

    Are there any other good polygamic/Romantic JRPGs (English translated) like this?

    I tried Kamidori but the gameplay felt very grindy and kinda lackluster. It never felt like it had a story.

    Thanks in Advance

    I will literally spew forth a list of Visual Novels with a romantic element. I will assume the shorter ones that are more like a nukige are not within your sphere of interest. Most of these will not be to your tastes due to sheer statistic probability. Beware.

    VNs:

      Hide contents

    A Profile - It has a couple of interesting twists, I found, and I really liked the protagonist over the course of them. That said, I think people find the twists kind of cheap or predictable and the protagonist infuriating. At any rate, I liked it!

    Butterfly Soup - Like the name indicates, this is a soupy mishmash of themes and stories, and lesbian romance is one of them. One that absolutely excelled, in my eyes.

    Cinderella Phenomenon - An Otome where you play as a Tsundere. Beware, the protagonist is a complete bastard at the start, but there's no tsundere without the 'dere'... Rest assured she learns many a life lesson.

    Crimson Grey - Dating a yandere... The setting attempts to portray itself as mildly sensical and realistic, and you're given a lot of choice on how to deal with her. I absolutely loved the choices you could make to stay with her. If you play this, the sequel (which continues from a good end) is awesome for seeing their relationship and how it has developed!

    Highway Blossoms - A yuri visual novel about a couple of girls going on a modern American adventure. Nothing more, nothing less, but you may love their relationship and their little adventure.

    Heart of the Woods - And once you're done with Highway Blossoms, some of the same guys went on to make this: A modern Fairytale. Probably better as a story and as a romance than the excellent Highway Blossoms.

    Hitomebore - A story about helping and falling in love with a bullied girl with unique physical characteristics. Very sweet, and also very short.

    Katahane - Just putting it here in case you haven't seen it. It doesn't really have much traditional romance, but it has the same artist as something else you've played.

    Kodoku ni Kiku Yuri - Super old Yuri short story. It got a new release recently, so I'm hoping the translation is a bit better than it was back when I played it.

    Love Ribbon - Good story about lesbian incest.

    Muv-Luv - I see for some reason you haven't touched Muv-Luv. Though its sequel Muv-Luv: Alternative and the second part of this game Muv-Luv: Unlimited are not romance, the majority of this game is. So just play Muv-Luv: Extra and ignore everything else. It's completely independent from the rest of the stories and there is no need to play them.

    My Girlfriend is the President Fandisc - Any reason you haven't played it? I didn't either, actually.

    Never7 - Though the series this is from is mostly seen sci-fi and lots of twists on the player, the first of the titles, Never7, is the most traditional romance. Most of the routes end up being pretty good romances, if in pretty unique circumstances. And the extra scenarios once you finish help that further.

    One Thousand Lies - Presented without comment. I recommend you play it, but I don't want to spoil anything. You can just consider this a comedy VN.

    Kindred Spirits on the Rooftop - More yuri. Yuritopia. It's all about gay ghosts trying to help all the gay couples in an all-girls school. The art is super-fluffy and the romances are cute. Also the protagonist is so cool! Despite being completely normal.

    School Days - Say hello to controversy! It is a romance game, and you can get some perfectly legitimate and romantic romance out of it, but you can also get a lot of crazy and evil stuff. If you stick to the more romantic plotlines and fidelity, it can actually be pretty sweet. Shiny Days, if you can get it to work, does the same thing and is slightly less immoral and evil about it.

    Shinigami no Kiss - Surprised you haven't played this. I only played the two girls' routes, but those are straight romances.

    Shining Song Starnova - It's certainly a romance, but it has a niche theme and a pretty dark view on the idol industry it uses as a setting. Ultimately things end well, but...

    Starlight Vega - Demons! Magic! Yuri! - A lot of things happen around here, but it's an ultimately sweet romance.

    Steam Prison - An otome with a mostly harsh story, but things vary wildly from route to route. Some are wholesome and romantic, and some are more difficult with few ways forward that don't bring sadness. Because of the circumstances changing so much with each route, a lot of different romance stories can be experienced.

    The Language of Love - This just came out. A mostly wholesome story about romancing a single mum with a daughter. Let's learn how to become a father figure...

    The Second Reproduction - An otome with a story I very much enjoyed. That aside, the romances are good! Me like! Unlike other Otome, a couple properly does things together.

    Tomoyo After ~Wonderful Everyday~ - A story starring a couple. There are different versions for this game and in the one I played the very true end was terrible. Hopefully it has changed in the more recent version.

    -- Haven't Finished --

    Amnesia: Memories - Otome with crazy happenings that is technically all about dating...? Protagonist doesn't talk. Not that we can see, anyway. She has something else voicing her inner thoughts.

    Little Miss Lonesome - Another otome; this time with loads of comedy and sex! I was put off when I thought this was mostly sex, but it isn't really. Most of it is just the protagonist being a giant antisocial mess. There's a guy that sounds like he's abusive but... nope. The people he deals with on a daily basis are just so crazy and stubborn he has to be like that.

    Canvas 2 - Not exactly the best translation, but it is a traditional romance story... except the protagonist is an art teacher and he can romance a teacher. That aside, the voice of Michiru from Grisaia voices one of the heroines here; it's great!

    Otoboku - A VN that surprised me with how much I actually liked the writing. The protagonist dresses as a girl (and is voiced by one and acts like one and...) and though I never actually played a route, it seemed like a normal romance VN outside of the premise.

    Steins;Gate Ryouku Renri no Darling - This is actually translated, somehow. I don't remember much of it, but it's just silliness and fanservice, I think.

    Oblivious Garden - Chinese VN with interesting setting. The translation isn't consistently good, bu there's a number of princesses to romance. I don't remember if I finished a full route, but it seemed pretty traditional.

    --Things I Haven't Played--

    Period

    Princess Waltz

    You seem to not have touched the Shuffle Fandiscs. You could do those. There's also a couple of Da Capo ones, about the red-haired girls.

    Check my list here for other stuff I've accumulated but didn't play.

    VN/Game mix:

      Hide contents

    Bunny Black series - The gameplay may be infuriating to you, and the protagonist may seem evil, but they do do their best to portray romance in these circumstances. And as far as I'm concerned, they succeeded very well.

    Evenicle - The epitome of romantic harem. The very point of the premise is polygamy, and a whole lot of the story is just the protagonist spending time with his wives or the wives getting along with one another. If you think you'd like polygamy, you should play this! It is, however, a bit grindy and the protagonist is one hell of a pervert. Though he's full of love. (Also has some extreme content...)

    Kamidori - Surprisingly wholesome story where you get into a relationship with a bunch of non-human girls, as well as one main heroine. The whole game is essentially about helping people out. Very nice.

     

    If you want me to list the more romantic nukige (that means, sex primarily for love, and nothing really going into extremes), just ask.

    The comedy was hilarious (to me) and the girls are pretty unique. I just don't get the thing that's going on in the background... It's so weird.

    The third list please, the Romantic nukige list

    Well waiting for the Makeover sounds like the most obvious choice here, so if you need to play a VN perhaps you can try Wagahigh first. If you still want more, perhaps you can try both of Dal Segno and ef. I don't know though if you already play those VNs, but if not I hope my recommendations here can fulfill what you want to play.

    I tried wagahigh before but was repelled by the looks of the girls. They look too young and the fact that the melons are as big as their face with that body is annoying.

    I've heard that ef has a lot of drama, and I don't want that. Del Segno is not that good (what i've heard).

     

    Thanks for your help. More romance recs are welcomed.

  7. I have been into VNs for an year or so and I've found that quite a few VNs have a True Heroine around whom most of the common route or even the whole VN revolves. Also, the VNs with heroines already in love with the mc in the common route.

    Personally, I have found many of them(the ones I've read) very irritating. Taking an example of Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai which made me think about this topic. The main heroine is way too innocent and her love for the mc and being jealous in the common route can be excused as comedy but these tropes can be very irritating if one doesn't like the main heroine very much(I didn't).

    Also, when we have such type of scenarios the mc automatically becomes dense as a brick and his thinking ability becomes that of a 10 year old, always following the "main heroine", which was more or less what happens in the above novel.

    Now taking another example, Hoshimemo which could have been my best read, was literally spoilt by the Red head Asuho whose behavior in "any" route screamed that she's in love. I found it very annoying, as apart from giving hints every time she was on screen she didn't really have a personality and would always get on my nerves. I hated her so much that I would skip any scene revolving her even if it was important to the story.

    Other stories like Chrono Clock, Happymaher which had the love struck Immoutos really make the overall experience unenjoyable for me at least.

    I'm currently reading PE and again this is looking an apt example to the title. 

    What are your views on this? And how do you handle such elements?

    Just finished Fureraba~ its great vn.

    How about try playing : - Sabbat of the Witch / Dracuriot ?

    The protagonist is proactive ,and well i quite enjoy the comedic aspect too

    I'll look into Sabbath of the Witch.

    I dropped Dracu Riot. The comedy without a doubt is very good but the romance is very shallow, also the story is lackluster. Only one girl stood out, The rest felt really meh even in the common route.

    I dropped it half into the 1st route.

    I'm at the opposite at least with Yuuri. A girl breaking up with a guy because her sister is afraid of not getting to be with her as much anymore? Absolutely fucking ridiculous.

    Wasn't there something similar in Hoshimemo too?

    With the two sisters, I think in one route we had this dilemma and it didn't feel ridiculous

    It is great, but OP said that he doesn't like too much drama.

    OTOH he liked Katawa Shoujo and Yoake... so yeah, Princess Evangile should do too, even though it isn't as lighthearted as Fureraba.

    Also, maybe Sakura Sakura?

    Well it does have drama but it isn't generally that heavy in Princess Evangile and I guessed it was more so relationship drama the OP wanted to avoid though that was just a guess.

    The drama I hate is the love triangle kind of drama. I'm tired of it as it's used way too excessively.

    Doesn't Sakura Sakura has love triangle?

    Also, how do we play this, it has two protags iirc

    I think you should check out Maji de watashi ni Koishinasai

    https://vndb.org/v1143

    I think Fureraba kinda drags on too much after you get on a route and you are a little isolated from other characters. This thing is handled a lot better in Majikoi in my opinion, because there's a whole group of friends, so you'll be seeing all of them on most of the routes. And there's even more comedy than in Fureraba, which extends beyond the common route, so one shouldn't ever get bored while reading this VN (or not, depends on sense of humor).

    Better to have then removes than other characters taking too much space in a heroine route. So many developers have proven themselves unable to find any sort of balance, so im just fine with no other character forcing themselves in heroine route events.

    I agree with @Stormwolf, I would like more of Heroine and mc interactions. I didn't like the Shepard VN coz of it. I didn't even understand when we were in the heroines route and when not as the interactions with others, diluted the heroines route itself.

    I do have Majikoi in my list but not something that I want to read right now. 

  12. This is my first post here! I freaking loved the romantic aspect of Fureraba.

    I want a good Visual Novel with the following traits

    • Romance, 18+ with a nice plot.
    • No main heroine is preferred (something like Fureraba) as the "bias"  in the common route can be irritating (like in the Shepard VN).
    • Highschool or above with a mature caste. So, 18+ looking cast is preferred.
    • No haremish common route (like Chrono Clock), romance must feel natural from both sides.
    • No rape or ntr or high amount of drama, yuri or yaoi.

    I've played

    • Katawa Shoujo(9/10)
    • Fureraba(9.5/10)
    • Yoake mae....(8/10)
    • Hoshimemo(8.5/10)(hated the childhood friend)
    • Have played partly Evenicle, Grisaia, IMMHW (will play these once I'm interested to read em back)

    I'm fine with a nukige like Kyonyuu Fantasy(no rape, ntr, mindbreak).

    Would love to get some awesome recommendation from you guys. The above request can be diluted except that the first and the last which are very essential.
