  1. Note: It is possible to get more than one ending from the visual novel in one playthrough. Needless to stay, it entirely depends on the choices you make which may involve a lot of trail & error. Thanks Image-Works... Bad End Indigestion - When Narifumi freed Sora, he found out that Shizuku aims to use her power in order to establish world peace. When he talks about this with his friends, they intended to stop her. As Narifumi and his friends attempt to find Shizuku in order to stop her schemes, he suddenly feels a surge of power flowing across his entire body since he freed Sora. He then ends up raping his friends including Kasumi before running away where he eventually meets up with Mizuki who offered him to join with Shizuku’s group due to the immense power he possesses. Mizuki then brings Narufumi to a ruined colosseum where Shizuku’s group is stationed at and at this point this, the bad ending is achieved in two ways. Either Narufumi gets a severe headache and loses his powers after raping Shizuku or he gets impaled by Shizuku and Kasumi while fighting them. Either way, he will end up lying on the ground and Shizuku will start to regret relying on otherworldly powers for her own desires. Everyone else also reflected on the consequences associated with the powers they obtained from the gate. As Narifumi laid on the ground, he saw Sora with a sad expression on her face. He then passes out but then suddenly wakes up back in Kadomori Academy where everyone, including his friends were preparing for the school festival as if nothing had happened. Somehow, everything was normal and people were going about their days as usual. Bad End Chaos - When Narufumi and his friends arrive at the ruined colosseum, Kasumi and Shizuku start to fight each other. Narufumi then throws himself between the two sisters where he ends up getting impaled by both of them. Kasumi and Shizuku were devastated over what they did to Narufumi and on his last dying breath, he tells them to stop this meaningless fight and live peacefully together. As Narufumi passes out from blood loss, he could see Sora with a sad expression on her face. Afterwards, Shizuku and Kasumi are back to their original world on the school roof and they are reflecting on the consequences of their past actions. While they both abide by Narufumi's wish by living peacefully together, they feel like nothing matters anymore. Bad End Rape - The power he obtained after freeing Sora allowed Narufumi to control Aun (The two humanoid earth monsters that attacked the school earlier), allowing him to easily defeat everyone in the colosseum. Sora laughed as she watched the whole situation and after a while, Narufumi turned all of his friends into obedient sex slaves, including Shizuku and Kasumi who are seen giving him a blowjob. Bad End Fiction - As Shizuku and Kasumi fight in the colosseum, Sora gives Narufumi a view of an illusionary world where everything is completely normal. Narufumi at first feels skeptical about what he is seeing but he convinces himself that there is nothing wrong and everything is fine. He then tells himself that Sora’s power is amazing. Shizuku Bad End - After the fight between Shizuku and Kasumi, Narufumi and Shizuku are seen at the roof of the school. Everyone came back to the original world, except for Kasumi. Narufumi and Shizuku wonder what Kasumi is doing in the alternate world alone. Despite them feeling sad that Kasumi isn’t here with them, they can’t bring themselves to cry because they feel like they have a hole in their heart. Narufumi suspects that this is the workings of Sora’s power and he wonders if other people feel the same way as they do. Kasumi Bad End - The premise for this ending is the same as the last one, except the roles for the Kadomori twins are reversed. Amane End - Narufumi and Amane are seen walking together to school. Amane then asks Narufumi if he wants to join the martial arts club with her, and he accepts. He also sees Amane to be more proactive in comparison to her previous self where she was more reserved and nervous. Fuu & Koyuki End - After Narufumi helped Fuu get back on good terms with Koyuki, they are seen at the roof of the school where Koyuki gives food to Narufumi that she prepared. Koyuki also teases Fuu for having feelings towards Narufumi. From this point onwards, Koyuki and Fuu live happily together after fighting each other from the alternate world. Nanami End - Narufumi is in the faculty office with Nanami where he helps her manage her workload in order to become a better and more respectable teacher towards the other students who have not taken her seriously before. In addition, Nanami wants Narufumi to call her by her first name. Haruko End - Narufumi is seen training with Haruko in a park. Narufumi aims to become stronger so that Haruko would be less worried for him. Haruko replied to that by saying that no matter how strong he becomes, Haruko will always worry about him as she sees him as the most important person to her. Mizuki End - Mizuki is seen leaning on a tree by the school waiting for Narufumi. When he arrives, she tells him that she is going to shop for some clothes on Sunday and asks if it's okay for him to come along. He stated that he couldn’t go because he has an appointment with Kasumi on Sunday. Narufumi did mention that he is free on Saturday and Mizuki settled to go shopping with him on that day. She also tells Narufumi that they’ll be going on a date as they are shopping. Narufumi brushed it off as a joke, but Mizuki still intends to win Narufumi over the Kadomori twins. Shizuku End - If Shizuku wins the fight against Kasumi, Kasumi will then apologize to Shizuku for interfering with her dreams. She also wishes Narufumi to help Shizuku achieve her goals and stay with her for her support. Afterwards, Narufumi along with Shizuku and his other friends were brought back to their original world and it was presumed that Shizuku utilized Sora’s power in order to establish world peace. Shizuku and Narufumi are then seen together by the school where they reflect on the actions they did from the alternate world they’ve been in. They are also planning out what they are going to do for their future life. Narufumi also wonders how Kasumi is doing. Kasumi End - If Kasumi wins the fight against Shizuku, Shizuku wishes both Narufumi and Kasumi to be happy before bidding them farewell. Afterwards, Narufumi and Kasumi, along with their friends are sent back to their own world. It is presumed that Sora’s power was not utilized by Shizuku to establish world peace. Narufumi and Kasumi are then seen talking to each other, reflecting on the actions they made from the alternate world. Kasumi wonders what Shizuku is doing in the alternate world and Narufumi hopes that Shizuku will understand why Kasumi stopped her from using Sora’s power. True End - As Shizuku and Kasumi are fighting each other, Narufumi intervenes and tells them that both of their ideals are right but it's wrong for them to fight. The fight between them still continues on and when one of them gets defeated (either Shizuku or Kasumi), Sora will then say goodbye to Narufumi and his consciousness suddenly fades away. He then ends up back at Kadomori Academy where he prepares for the school festival along with Shizuku and Kasumi. They go by their typical school days living peacefully together.
  2. https://vndb.org/v6482 Main Menu Ever since I watched the hentai adaptation of Black Gate -Kan'in no Gakuen- that has been discontinued, I always wonder what happens next after the second episode. That is why I took the liberty to play the visual novel. Black Gate -Kan'in no Gakuen- is an eroge that was developed by Image-Works and released back in 2004. The story features a boy named Narufumi Hosokawa but the visual novel allows to name him anything you want as long as it contains Japanese characters. He is a student at Kadomori academy who is considered to be a pretty average guy. He is also friends with Shizuku Kadomori and Kasumi Kadomori who are twins that have different personalities. Shizuku is more calm and reserved while Kasumi is more proactive and a bit clumsy. They are also known to have a distinct birth mark on their chest. In Kadomori Academy, the story also introduces other characters that play key roles in the visual novel. Amane Izumi is another student at the school who is quite reserved, shy and nervous around certain situations. Fuu Katsuragi is the student council president who takes things very seriously and is inept with martial arts. Koyuki Hasegawa is a member of the student council and she is very attached towards Fuu. Nanami Ebizuka is Narufumi's homeroom teacher who doesn't take her job seriously and tends to be laid back. Haruko Fujisaki was the previous student council president in Kadamori academy before Fuu until she graduated and she is very skilled with a bow and arrow. And finally, Mizuki Komiyama is the class representative of Narufumi's classroom who also takes things seriously, especially for the school festival. Narufumi Hosokawa (Main Protagonist) The visual novel starts off with the students at Kadomori academy preparing for the upcoming school festival. At one point, Shizuku and Kasumi are seen arguing to each other about something before Shizuku stormed out of the classroom. After some time when Narufumi was alone in the classroom, Shizuku came and confessed her feelings towards him before having sex. After a few days, the school got terrorized by two humanoid earth monsters from a different world that were attempting to capture Kasumi. Kasumi, Nanami and Haruko would then open a portal inside the school that leads to a different world in order to get rid of the monsters. As a result, Narufumi along with his friends got transported to the alternate world. From this point onwards, everyone aimed to find out how to get back home and and Shizuku. This game has multiple endings that correspond to each character, and they are obtained based on the choices you make. As I played through the visual novel, the story was very mediocre and not that interesting. Its just a bunch of highschool students that traveled to a different world where they are fighting off monsters that are native to this alternate world (very similar to the isekai genre). Each character has their own route which reveals information about their past life, providing you insight on what kind of person they are and what hardships they dealt with in the past. CG Collection The story of the visual novel was also very inconsistent to its hentai adaptation. One example would be that in the hentai, the entire school got teleported to the other world along with Narufumi and his friends. This was not the case in the visual novel where only the characters got teleported. Another example would be that Nanami Ebizuku died in the hentai adaptation after getting stabbed by Shizuku which also didn't happen in the visual novel. I honestly thought that the visual novel would complement the story from the hentai adaptation, but I was completely wrong. I was very disappointed on the fact that the plot in the visual novel doesn't match with its hentai adaptation. In terms of the technical features of the game, there are quite a lot of flaws relative to the other visual novels I played. First off, while the UI has a save, load and backlog button, it doesn't have a skip button. The way to skip dialogue in the game would be to hold down Ctrl, and this includes dialogue that you haven't read before which makes it very difficult to navigate which routes you already have been through and which ones you haven't. You also can't fast forward through an elongated CG that is automatically scrolling during the game. In addition, the UI doesn't have the option to quick save your progress. You can only save normally which can be a bit time consuming if you want to grind on obtaining all the CGs and endings for each character. One flaw that I find to be the most annoying would be that the UI disappears whenever the character faces multiple multiple that you have to select in the game. You can't save your progress during these instances, making it very frustrating and time consuming if you're aiming to navigate yourself between different character routes. Settings You may think that this visual novel is trash, but for me personally, I don't think its inherently bad. Despite the flaws present, I was able to tolerate them and manage to get all the endings for all the characters, which includes the bad ones. I also enjoyed some of the background music, the background art and the voice acting was alright, especially for the two humanoid earth monsters. In addition, unlike most of the other eroges, the H-scenes are pretty short so I was able to get by through them without falling asleep. What makes this visual novel unique is that it contains these animated H-scenes for each of the heroines which looks pretty similar to the hentai adaptation. Unfortunately though, I was not able to obtain all of them, let alone the CGs because there was a programming error in the visual novel that prevents me from reading more in a particular route. Not sure if there is a problem within the files or its not perfectly compatible with my laptop. Needless to say, I was very frustrated especially after the fact that I went through a lot of trail and error just to get the H-scenes that I missed. I was however able to get all the endings of Black Gate so that's a win right there (I'll make a post for that soon). Overall, this visual novel isn't anything special. It just features a mediocre story with mediocre characters that are somewhat relatable. If you wanna play this visual novel all because of the discontinued hentai adaptation, I wouldn't recommend it. While the general premise is the same, there are many parts in the visual novel that don't match with the hentai. As for the company Image-Works who developed Black Gate, this was their most recent visual novel they made and released to the public. For some reason, they haven't made anymore visual novels ever since. So far they've only made three games and one of them is exclusive to the PS1. Since they haven't made a new game since 2004, and their most recent game being pretty mediocre, I can only assume that the developers have ceased operations. Since the developers put their hard work and effort into the games they've made for Image-Works its kind of sad to see that things are ending this way for them. I'm not sure what the developers are up to now, but I wish them all the best! End Credits
  3. Ending List There are a total of 13 endings in I ☆ Can, and 8 of them are bad endings. Before you go through the endings, I suggest you read the following paragraph below in order to have a better understanding about the the main antagonist of the visual novel; Kouji Terada. Ryouta Tendou was the grandson of Yoshinobu Tendou who was the former president of a major entertainment production company. It turns out that his grandfather expelled Terada from the entertainment industry because he was preying on the idols. During this visual novel, Terada aimed on seeking revenge against his grandfather by making his grandson suffer. This would explain why he aimed to sexually assault the people that are close to Ryouta such as Miyu and Reina. Miyu - Pure Love Ending Miyu managed to make a huge hit on her performance as an idol without being too reliant on Qupu's magic thanks to Ryouta's support. Qupu then reminded Ryouta and Miyu that he has no reason to stay anymore since Miyu has finally reached her dream. He bid both of them farewell before going back to Dreamcastle. After Qupu disappeared, Ryouta and Miyu engaged in sexual intercourse as a form of celebration for Miyu's success. Later on, Reina arrives at Ryouta's house and reminds Miyu that since they no longer of the ability to transform, the real competition between them as idols begins. They will have to put in all the effort they have in order to aim for the top. Miyu also stated that she feels confident as long as Ryouta is by her side. Reina told them to do their best before leaving. From then on, Ryouta will continue to support Miyu in the entertainment industry. Miyu - Transformation Ending When Miyu managed to reach her dream on becoming an idol and Qupu returned back to Dreamcastle, Miyu had no choice but to immediately retire from the entertainment industry. Since she heavily relied on Qupu's magic, the quality of her performance would falter without her ability to transform. With that being the case, Ryouta and Miyu decided to have sex one more time before the remains of Qupu's magic fades away. From this point, Miyu and Ryouta both intended to keep on living happily together. Miyu - 3P Ending When Reina arrived at Ryouta's house after Miyu's success, Reina asked if Ryouta would be able to help her in the entertainment industry. Miyu responded to Reina out of jealousy, stating that Ryouta only belongs to her. This ultimately led both of these girls to compete on who will get assisted by Ryouta in order to become a top idol. This was done in terms of who would give the most sexual pleasure to Ryouta which led to an MFF threesome. The rivalry between Miyu and Reina continues on. Miyu - Bad Ending Yuuto Edition No. 01 When Ryouta and Miyu started to have sex after Miyu's successful performance, Ryouta was surprised that Miyu wasn't a virgin. She stated that her virginity was already taken by a male idol; Yuuto Yamashita. Miyu explained to Ryouta that since she failed at her previous live performance and had an argument with him, she ran to a nearby park where she met Yuuto and relied on him for support. Yuuto brought Miyu to his apartment and it is revealed that just like Ryouta, Yuuto has feelings for her as well. Because of that, he brought himself to have sex with her. Miyu intially refused but she was unable to resist as she was overwhelmed by the pleasure. They eventually had sex before Miyu returned to Ryouta's house. Ryouta was enraged on the fact that he sacrificed so much for Miyu's sake and yet she ended up having sex with someone else. Ryouta became violent during the sexual intercourse with Miyu and afterwards, Ryouta no longer wants to work as her manager. Miyu begged him to come back but he refused because he no longer had the confidence to truly love her anymore. He decides to work for other idols at the request of Tomomi. Although he was happy for Miyu's success, he is now aiming to raise an idol that will surpass her in order to accumulate Miyu's regrets on her past actions. Miyu - Bad Ending Yuuto Edition No. 02 Miyu kept meeting with Yuuto in the park multiple times, which resulted in her to develop feelings for him. Yuuto provided support for her by sharing the difficult times he faced in the entertainment industry and how he overcame them. He also shared his email address with her in case she wants to talk to him again. Eventually, Miyu's feelings for Ryouta had diminished and she's no longer able to transform into an idol whenever they kissed. This can only happen when she kisses Yuuto. Afterwards, Yuuto brings Miyu to his apartment where they had sex. Miyu stayed in Yuuto's apartment overnight and when it was morning, Ryouta arrived there and desperately wanted Miyu back. At this point, Miyu doesn't want anything to do with Ryouta anymore as she is now in love with Yuuto. Later on, Miyu gets completely captivated by the sexual pleasure that Yuuto gives. Miyu - Bad Ending Yuuto Edition No. 03 This ending has some extra scenes that root off from the previous one (Yuuto Edition No. 02). A few months after Miyu started to live with Yuuto, she wants to move back to Ryouta's house. Miyu didn't feel at ease to live with Yuuto anymore because of his massive popularity as a male idol. Ryouta reluctantly accepted Miyu back and she was able to transform again after kissing him. However, Ryouta noticed that Miyu's behavior was not the same as before, especially when they had sex. Because of that, Ryouta couldn't really bring himself to truly love Miyu. Miyu - Bad Ending Terada P Edition After Miyu failed on her live performance, Terada provided her support by setting up a new program that focuses only on her. However, this was all an act that will give him the opportunity to rape her. When Ryouta attempted to save Miyu, he got restrained by multiple men and was brought to the broadcast stage along with Miyu. After Miyu got gangraped by multiple men, Terada revealed to Miyu that Ryouta got an erection after seeing what she went through. Miyu was upset and felt she has been betrayed by the person she really loved, which ultimately broke her. Terada then convinced Miyu to let everything go and surrender herself to her own desires. When he kissed Miyu in the lips, she transformed into an evil version of herself where she becomes completely addicted to sex. Terada then brought Ryouta to a love hotel where they forcibly had sex with Miyu. Ryouta eventually passes out after ejaculating multiple times and Terada tells Miyu to kill Ryouta. Miyu complied and Terada tells Negishi to dispose Ryouta's body in order to cover his tracks. From this point onwards, Miyu continuously had sex with multiple men, and Terada uses her to produce pornographic videos for the AV industry. Miyu - Bad Ending Tooru Edition Tooru Takasaki kidnapped Miyu and brought her to a love hotel. Tomomi informed Ryouta on what happened to Miyu and they rushed towards where she was located. When they got there, Ryouta was restrained by Tomomi, which revealed that she was a part of Tooru's scheme as well. Apparently, Tooru has the ability to captivate any woman into sexual pleasure, allowing him to manipulate them which is what happened to Tomomi. When Tooru managed to captivate Miyu into sexual pleasure, along with Reina who also got kidnapped, Terada who was also present in the love hotel ordered Tomomi to kill Ryouta and dispose his body. If she does that, she'll have sex with Tooru again. Tomomi complied and strangled Ryouta, causing him to pass out from asphyxiation. Miyu - Bad Ending Takashi Edition Takashi invites Miyu and Ryouta to go on a group date along with other stand up comedians and idols. Miyu accepted the invitation, but Ryouta felt reluctant about this. When they arrived, they started to play what was called "King's Game." Things were initially fine, but later on, more inappropriate actions were done towards Miyu and Ryouta didn't feel comfortable about that. As Ryouta and Miyu left the party, they got into an argument. Afterwards, Ryouta decided to go home by himself while Miyu came back to the party to resume the King's Game. However, she noticed that the idol girls that were in the pub before were missing. Miyu sensed that something was wrong and decides to go home, but Takashi and his acquaintances prevented her from leaving. At this point, Miyu understood what Ryouta was complaining about, but it was too late for her. Miyu ended up getting gangraped, and she eventually got overwhelmed by the sexual pleasure. She was also given a drug that promoted her addiction to sex. Eventually, Miyu abandoned her dreams on becoming an idol and instead allowed herself to get captivated in sexual pleasure. Miyu - Bad Ending Takuya Edition When Ryouta got back home from the TV station, he was shocked that Miyu wasn't there. He went to different places where Miyu might be, but he was unable to find her. 2 days later at the TV station, he found a DVD set that were given by an unknown fan of Miyu. When he played it on his TV, he saw that Takuya is the one responsible for the disappearance of Miyu. Takuya became so obsessed with Miyu that he followed her back to Ryouta's house where he then sexually assaults her. He also attempted to make Miyu transform into an idol by kissing her, but it couldn't be done since she doesn't have any feelings of attachment towards Takuya. This made him very angry and upset. When the DVD finished playing, Ryouta dashes out and goes to Takuya's place in order to save Miyu. However, when he was stopped by a red light at a public intersection, he got stabbed in the back by Takuya. Ryouta collapsed on the floor and passes out from blood loss. Reina - Happy Ending Jinzou Negishi who was an aquiantance of Terada, revealed to Ryouta that he secretly took pictures of him living with Reina. Negishi told Ryouta to comply with the orders giving by Terada, otherwise he will leak the photos which can negatively affect the lifestyle of Ryouta and Reina. If Ryouta refuses to comply, Negishi would leave in an angry manner and Ryouta would explain to Reina about the situation they are currently in. Reina was happy that Ryouta didn't comply and she declared to her fans that her next performance as an idol will be her final one before she retires. If she stopped working as an idol, it wouldn't matter for Negishi leaking the photos. Afterwards, Reina aims to become a reliable wife for Ryouta. Reina - Bad Ending If Ryouta decided to comply, Negishi will bring him to a room where Terada is present, along with Reina. Ryouta is then forced to watch Reina getting raped by Terada. Afterwards, Terada forces Reina to put a remote controlled vibrator in her vagina and keep it in there during her live performance. During that time, she was unable to hold back her orgasm as the intensity of the vibrator became stronger, causing her vaginal fluids to spill out. This caused the audience to be in distraught and negatively affect Reina's reputation. From then on, Reina was used to satisfy the sexual desires of multiple men and Ryouta couldn't do anything about it. Tomomi Ending During a celebration, Tomomi Minamino was completely intoxicated from drinking and told Miyu to go buy more alcohol. While Tomomi and Ryouta were alone together, Tomomi saw Ryouta having a similar resemblance of her husband that died 12 years ago. Because of that, Tomomi started to build up some love and affection towards Ryouta which led to her having sex with him. When Miyu returned from the store, she was devastated to see that Tomomi is having sex with Ryouta, whom she loved. Miyu ran away and Ryouta attempted to follow her, but he was stopped by Tomomi. The sexual pleasure he got from her overwhelmed him, forcing Ryouta to stay with her. Later on, Miyu's performance as an idol diminished drastically. Seeing that Miyu no longer has the motivation to perform as an idol, Tomomi decided to sell her to an unknown assailant. From this point forward, Ryouta now works for Tomomi and they live happily together.
  4. https://vndb.org/v2205 Main Menu I ☆ Can is an eroge visual novel that was developed by LiLiM back in 2009. The visual novel features Ryouta Tendou who is the main protagonist of the visual novel. He's just an ordinary highschool student with bad grades who doesn't like studying. As he was walking home from school, a girl named Miyu Toudou who is the main heroine of the story suddenly bumped into him and ended up kissing his lips by accident. Because of that, Miyu Toudou magically transformed into an idol which was caused by the magic given by a chibi familiar named Qupu (Christopher Landale Providel IV) who is an acquaintance Miyu. Essentially, Miyu Toudou is aiming to become an idol which she dreamed of ever since she was a child. Qupu, who came from Dreamcastle is obligated to help her dreams come true. Ryouta is willing to help out as well because he can amplify Qupu's magic inside Miyu whenever they kissed, making it more likely for her to reach her dream. The story of the visual novel roots off from here and the ending you get depends on the choices you make. [Miyu]: "It's okay for you to call me whatever you want. That way, we'll feel closer to each other" I ☆ Can may appear cheerful, but certain parts to the story are far from it. While there are some romantic elements in its story along with some comedy, it also contains some darker elements such as blackmail, gangrape and the infamous netorare (NTR) genre. Just like most people, I'm not a fan of netorare, but that's actually what made this visual novel so compelling. I was even more compelled to play it after watching its hentai adaptation that was developed by PoRO. The story for the visual novel mainly focuses on the main character helping Miyu to achieve her goals. At first, the visual novel starts off relatively slow, which aligns similarly to the slice of life genre. As you keep moving forward into the story, you'll learn more about the key characters and what their backgrounds are, especially for Ryouta. They were a bit too short in my opinion and the details were not very intricate but I still find it interesting. Depending on your choices, you'll also experience some dark moments associated with the other characters you come across with, which can potentially lead you to bad endings. While I do find the story of I ☆ Can to be compelling to some degree, it doesn't seem very creative when comparing to other visual novels. To me, it just seems very basic. A highschool boy helps a girl out to achieve her goals and they eventually fall in love with each other. Sounds like the plot of a regular Nukige, but there is no way I can forget about the infamous netorare genre I mentioned before. [Reina]: "You heard the crowd's cheer right? My cheers were louder than Miyu-san's." In terms of the characters in I ☆ Can, some of them were pretty memorable. The voice acting was also spot on, especially for the male characters. Putting Miyu aside, there's also another heroine of the visual novel; Reina Horiike. Just like Miyu, she also aims to become an idol. She's also acquainted with a chibi familiar of her own from Dreamcastle named Holy who is helping her reach her goal. There's also the main antagonist of the story; Kouji Terada who is aiming to seek revenge against Ryouta's family because of a particular incident that happened in his past during his time in the entertainment industry. There's also Yuuto Yamashita who I find to be a mysterious side character. For me personally, I find Qupu to be the most likeable character in the visual novel. He may a bit reckless, but I do find him to be the funniest character, especially when he lowers his voice whenever he intends to be serious on something. The character that I find to be the least likeable is Holy. Given that she is more successful than Qupu, she often brags about her superiority. She also belittles Ryouta for being associated with Qupu who is not as successful. This arrogant and prideful persona of her really makes me want to rip her wings off! The visual novel has a total of 13 endings and they are obtained based on the choices you make for the main character. Despite the story being pretty basic; not being as creative as other visual novel games, I still find it enjoyable. I especially enjoyed the romantic relationship between Ryouta and Miyu. Even if you are not a fan of the netorare genre, there are reasons why it exists in the hentai and visual novel community. If it wasn't for netorare, the story may not be as compelling and I probably would've dropped the visual novel.
  5. https://vndb.org/v3956 Main Menu Kegareta Eiyuu was the first eroge visual novel that CLOCKUP has ever made, at least according to VNDB. It was developed back in 2002 and eventually got an HD remaster in 2019. The story takes place in a fantasy world that is pretty similar to your typical Isekai anime. However, you might find this visual novel relatively disturbing. The story mainly takes place in the Imperial Capital city of this fantasy world and the key region in the city is the Fata Morgana Palace where men are prohibited from entering. However, there are some special exceptions that allow men to enter, which was the case for the main male protagonist. What's interesting is that the visual novel showcases the protagonist to be the villain. Main Protagonist (Hideo - Demon Form) The main protagonist has the occupation of a priest and you can name him whatever you want, but his default name is Andersen. In the beginning of the visual novel, Andersen finds himself awake in the Fata Morgana Palace after being severely injured by a demon invasion. He was saved thanks to an angel-like elementalist named Aneirinn who healed his wounds. This was at the request of his sister Iria Regate who apparently has an incestous relationship with him. Afterwards, the visual novel introduces you to all the different characters that are associated with the Fata Morgana Palace. It allows you to select which places you want to go which is similar to the selection feature from Kara no Shoujo. Fata Morgana Palace After getting to know the characters, the story arrives in a bit of a twist. It turns out your not actually a priest but rather a former hero who joined the demon army. The personality of the priest gets erased while the personality of the former hero emerges in the priest's body. The visual novel gives you the option to give the main character a new name, but his new default name is Hideo. The background of Hideo essentially took place about 100 years ago. Apparently, Hideo had a sister named Lilfina which he cherished her more than anything else in the world. However, when their home got raided by demons and bandits, Hideo found Lilfina dead which ultimately broke him. As a result, he joined the demon army to seek revenge. (Disclaimer: Iria is the sister of the priest Andersen while Lilfina is the sister of the former hero Hideo. Don't get confused. Iria and Lilfina are not connected in any way) Hideo teamed up with the main antagonist of the story which is a succubus named Inertia and their main goal is to capture the princess of the imperial capital, Tristyna Eltorlida, to use her as a sacrifice in order to resurrect the demon king. Hideo is also associated with two other demons that possessed his arms which are Damsel and Zetro. They are only active during the night and have the tendency to harm anyone who gets in their way. They also have a strong fetish for making women suffer. In addition, Hideo is also associated to a pinked-haired girl whom you can also name her whatever you want but her default name is Kubiwan. She appears very frail and very submissive to the main character, but she does play a key role later on in the visual novel. Ordered by the succubus Inertia, Hideo must infiltrate the Fata Morgana Palace in order to weaken its magical barrier to make it easier for capturing princess Tristyna. Hideo must also cause chaos to other regions outside of the palace during the night in order to spread the defense forces thin. You have the option to select what regions you want to attack. You can also choose whether you want to invade the region as either Damsel or Zetro. They acquire different H-scenes. Translation: Choose a country to attack This visual novel is packed with a lot of stuff that you might find disturbing even though the genitals are censored. This involves gangrape, tentacles, bondage, mild gore and even futanari. However, you may find them relatively tame if you compare them to other visual novels such as Euphoria or Maggot Baits. There are some H-scenes that are more heartwarming, but they only contribute to a minority of all the H-scenes that exist in this eroge. One of the things that annoyed me the most was that the H-scenes were massively inflated. They don't contribute much to the main story so I ended up skipping most of them. However there was some dialogue in the H-scenes that are actually important for the main story, so I did take the liberty to read some of it. The visual novel has a total of 7 different endings. One of them is a bad ending while the other 6 are relatively good endings where it involves the main character living happily with one of the key heroines of the visual novel. These key heroines are Creole, Iria, Mutsuki, Tristyna, Aneirinn and the two magical sisters Marika & Ririka. Their endings are acquired based on how frequent you visit them at the Fata Morgana Palace. It also depends on whether or not you decide to attack and rape them in the battlefield. Also, keep in mind that the more you sabotage the palace, the more likely you'll be able to win a fight against the heroines. Hideo: "Anyway, you thought that if you killed Inertia, you would then cut me with that sword!" Overall, despite the H-scenes making me fall half-asleep, the story was quite compelling. It focuses on revenge that the main character seeks, and the visual novel provides you with answers on why its not worth it and you should just move on with your life, letting go of the past. Unfortunately, the eroge hasn't been translated so I had to rely on Textractor. In addition, the artwork was pretty good. I've played the remastered version of the visual novel, and looking at the art gave me this feeling of nostalgia. Of course they were developed back in the early 2000s so there's no surprise there. As for the music, it was really spot on. Some of them made me cry and even gave me goosebumps, especially during the battle scenes. It sure was quite the experience. Yuna: "Even if you eat Yuna, she wouldn't taste good~~!!"
  6. https://vndb.org/v16534 Main Menu Kilmonger is a dark fantasy Russian visual novel developed by 7DOTS. It was developed back in 2014 but had massive improvements in the year 2019 which was officially released on Steam. However, the visual novel was removed from Steam and I'm not sure why. Thankfully though I managed to buy it before it got removed. The visual novel takes place in a fantasy world where Kilmongers (referred to as merchants of death) live in. They are essentially human beings that sold their soul in exchange for power to summon and control demons from the underworld. They are generally feared by regular humans, so they end up living in the “Dark Lands” which is essentially a region where it’s always dark. The region also has a strong connection to the demon realm which allows the Kilmongers to summon demons. This visual novel is an eroge and it’s relatively short so there aren’t many H scenes present. For some reason the censorship of the visual novel is on by default. Not sure why the developer didn’t just give us the option to play the game either censored or uncensored when we open it for the first time but whatever. You can just go to the options menu where you can toggle the censorship of the game. Its labeled as "Censure." Options Anyway, the main character of the visual novel is Argus and he is a Kilmonger. Unfortunately, he's never shown on what he looks like. The H scenes doesn't even show his penis even if you turned the censorship off. In any case, what makes Argus different from most of the other Kilmongers is that he is more polite and rarely ever summons demons. Depending on the choices you make on this visual novel, you’ll learn more about Argus’s past life on why he became a Kilmonger and more background information for the other major characters. Argus's Route One of the demons that Argus summoned and was affiliated with was a dog-like demon named Greyzmodel or Grey for short, which has tentacles covering his mouth. He is considered to be one of the weakest demons from the demonic realm but Argus didn't care. In fact he became emotionally attached to Grey and as a result, I became emotionally attached to Grey as well. I find the interaction between Argus and Grey so adorable especially when Grey pounced at Argus when he got home and licked him just like what a normal dog would. I also found it heartwarming on how Grey interacted with other characters, being friendly to them as well. Grey truly is a man's best friend. Argus was also affiliated with a woman named Jenny who is essentially the deuteragonist of the visual novel. Argus saved her from another Kilmonger named Kal that was sexually assaulting her and afterwards, she served as the maid for Argus’s mansion. H-scene The visual novel has two different routes that pertains to the major characters which are Argus and Jenny, each having a different number of endings. Argus's route has 4 endings while Jenny's route has 3 endings, giving this visual novel a total of 7 different endings. However, you would need to complete Argus's route in order to unlock Jenny's route which essentially takes place after Argus's route. In addition, there is one true ending for Argus and Jenny and they're obtained based on the choices you make. Jenny's route after you complete Argus's route Overall, I enjoyed Kilmonger despite being short with mundane H-scenes. The story of it really caught my attention. In addition, the music was great as well, especially for "Helly Tree - Oh Yeah You Will" from the true ending for Argus's route which is considerably my favourite one in the visual novel. I highly recommend you play this for yourself. As mentioned earlier, its not on steam anymore. However, you can download it for free on Itch.io. Here's the link: https://7dots.itch.io/kilmonger
  7. https://vndb.org/v7001 Main Menu Maki-chan to Now visual novel developed by Waffle is about a writer named Seiichi Sakonji who creates eroges/light novels. He initially started out as not being very successful but later on, he meets a girl named Maki Sanjou whom he finds to be masturbating next to his balcony. When Seiichi and Maki started to meet each other, they started to form a relationship. [NSFW Warning] Maki: "I haven't washed it in days, ah, kaha... a stinky, dirty cock breaks my hymen, ah, ah ♪" Maki turns out to be a hardcore masochist and exhibitionist, fantasizing about getting blackmailed and raped by some stranger. She is also the student council president at an all-girls academy. Because of her masochistic tendencies, she gives Seiichi some references for his creation on Light Novels/Eroges by having sex. [NSFW Warning] A large amount of urine flows along the surface of the wooden horse like a waterfall, spreading a dirty puddle on the floor. Maki also has a little sister named Yuki Misono. Apparently, they were separated because of a divorce between they’re parents. As you might expect, Seiichi ended up having sex with her as well. During the H scenes, it was mentioned that Yuki’s body was still developing. So I guess she’s underage, but she also has the same masochistic tendencies as found in her older sister. [NSFW Warning] Yuki: "Hey Onii-chan. Did you know? This is Yuki's first kiss...nku, chuchuku ♪" This visual novel has multiple endings and they are acquired based on the choices you make. Honestly, this VN is relatively mediocre in my opinion. It’s kind of like a slice of life VN mixed with romance and sex. Not much interesting things are happening. In terms of the H-scenes, they were massively inflated and I almost fell asleep because of them. Some of them were bondage scenes which I’m into, but there is very little of them. The art is great but the story itself isn’t very intriguing. It’s mostly Seiichi having sex with Maki and Yuki as he works on making eroges or light novels for his career as a writer. Overtime though, Seiichi's relationship with Maki grew even further to the point where they plan on getting married in the future which may not be surprising to you. [NSFW Warning] Maki: "Hehehe ♪, I want to experience it at least once, a molestation play ♪ huh, huh... huh" Because of these massively inflated H-scenes and a plot that isn’t very intriguing, this makes the VN overall to be a bit of a snore-fest at least for me. If you’re the kind of person that is really into eroge visual novels with a the simple plot and a mix of slice of life and romance, then this VN is for you. Especially if the main heroine (Maki) has a rape/bondage fantasy of hers.
  8. Note: There are some bad endings within each route of the three heroines where Kyosuke gets killed that are not significant to the overall story of the visual novel. They're more like Game Over sequences, so I didn't include them on this post. (Momoko Momono Endings) (Ai Hongou Endings) (Yukino Hongou Endings)
  9. Main Menu Kowaku no Toki, a visual novel developed by TinkerBell is something that I personally have some mixed feelings about. The art was alright but I'm not so sure about the story since it was a bit confusing, mainly because there were a lot of plot holes. In terms of the H-scenes, some were alright which included some bondage, but a lot of them were massively inflated which is not really essential to the story and I ended up skipping some of it. Kyousuke Mibu (Main Protagonist) The main character for this VN is Kyousuke Mibu who is a private detective. He at first appeared as being lazy but overtime, he had some character development. For some reason, he ends up having these prophetic dreams which reveals what's going to happen in the future. In the beginning he receives and accepts a request to find a missing person which led to him ending up in a western-style mansion in the middle of the forest. There have been various supernatural things occurring in this mansion which has a lot of secrets which Kyousuke intends to find out. There was also this creature that Kyousuke found in the woods which had the body of a cow and the face of a human. According to google translate from Textractor, it is referred to as "The Matter" and it seems to be based on a Japanese mythical creature called "Kudan" which really caught my interest. Kudan (件) Just like any other visual novel, the endings you get are based on the choices you make which lead to the main character getting affiliated with one of the three main heroines in this VN (Momoko, Ai and Yukino). Each heroine has multiple endings to them. Out of these three, Yukino's route seems to have the greatest importance on revealing the secrets in this mansion where supernatural things are occurring and why Kyousuke keeps having these prophetic dreams every time he sleeps. I would recommend you to go through the routes of the other heroines as well since they also have compelling stories. Translation: Looking at the burning mansion, Yukino-san seemed to be thinking of Ruriko-san. I'm not exactly sure how many endings there are for each character, but once you do get them, you'll unlock a bonus route on the main menu which I don't think is canon. It's mainly just for comedy purposes so I wouldn't recommend it if you don't have the time nor courage to get all the endings for Momoko, Ai and Yukino. I still recommend this visual novel to be translated for a wider audience to experience it. It is available for purchase on DLsite. [Ouka] “Kudan, he’s cute…” By the way, one thing that seems to be inconsistent in this visual novel was that when you choose Yukino's route, Ai never shows up in the mansion and the same thing applies the other way around. Also, if you choose Momoko's route, neither Yukino nor Ai shows up in the mansion. Since they are sisters and they are the daughters of Ruriko who lives in the mansion, it would make sense that they both show up in the mansion no matter what route you take. Seems a bit odd and I assume that TinkerBell was being lazy on constructing the different routes for each heroine. Maybe I'm being a bit too nitpicky but whatever. I still enjoyed the visual novel.
  10. The visual novel has a total of 8 endings and they are obtained based on how full the masochism (blue) and sadism (red) bars are below the user interface. Choosing permissive options will fill the masochism bar and deplete the sadism bar. The opposite would happen for choosing assertive options. Total Number of Ending: 8/8 | Achievement Rate: 100% Asuna's Endings Ending 1 - Start by playing as Asuna and pick as many permissive options you possibly can. When Asuna is brought outside to have sex in front of the students, save at [File 1]. Continue on picking permissive options. You're masochism bar will fill very high which results in Ending 1 Ending 2 - Load [File 1] and only pick assertive options. This will deplete the masochism bar and fill the sadism bar, which will lead to Ending 2 Ending 3 - Start over as Asuna and pick as many assertive options you possibly can. When Asuna escapes Yurika's dungeon, save at [File 2]. Continue on picking assertive options. You're sadism bar will fill very high which results in Ending 3 Ending 4 - Load [File 2] and only pick permissive options. This will deplete the sadism bar and fill the masochism bar, which will lead to Ending 4 Yurika's Endings Ending 1 - Start by playing as Yurika and pick as many assertive options you possibly can. When Asuna is brought outside to have sex in front of the students, save at [File 3]. Continue on picking assertive options. You're sadism bar will fill very high which results in Ending 1 Ending 2 - Load [File 3] and only pick permissive options. This will deplete the sadism bar and fill the masochism bar, which will lead to Ending 2 Ending 3 - Start over as Yurika and pick as many permissive options you possibly can. When Asuna escapes Yurika's dungeon, save at [File 4]. Continue on picking permissive options. You're masochism bar will fill very high which results in Ending 3 Ending 4 - Load [File 4] and only pick assertive options. This will deplete the masochism bar and fill the sadism bar, which will lead to Ending 4 Note: You can switch between Asuna and Yurika anytime by clicking on the button that is between the masochism and sadism bars
  11. Keep in mind that these endings take place after one year. Also, obtaining these endings depend on how full the masochism and sadism bars are for both characters. Asuna's Endings: [Endings 1 and 2 are obtained if Asuna doesn't escape from Yurika's dungeon] Ending 1 - Asuna lives as Yurika's sex slave presumably for the rest of her life. She is locked up in a cage, pleasuring herself with an adult toy. Ending 2 - Word got out about Yurika's contribution to sex slavery. The authorities put a stop to it and managed to save all the victims, including Youko and Asuna. Later on, Asuna moved to France where she sells cookies that she baked, and Katsumi comes along with her where he paints a picture. Asuna also learned that Youko transferred to a different school where she became captain for the tennis club. [Endings 3 and 4 are obtained if Asuna does escape from Yurika's dungeon] Ending 3 - The roles between Asuna and Yurika completely flipped. After Yurika finishes giving out a speech for the assembly, it is shown that Asuna becomes the student council president of Reyseine Academy while Yurika becomes a masochistic sex slave under the command of Asuna. Ending 4 - The private rose garden becomes a public cherry blossom park where Asuna goes there, looks up at the sky and prays to Katsumi and Youko hoping for their best in the after life. She will continue on as a student in Reyseine Academy. (My favourite ending by the way!) Yurika's Endings: [Endings 1 and 2 are obtained if Asuna doesn't escape from Yurika's dungeon] Ending 1 - Yurika becomes crippled due to a construction accident and later on, ends up meeting with Asuna and Katsumi. Yurika is prepared to get ridiculed by them after the things she has done. However, Katsumi had no intention to do so because he understood that he takes part of the blame for Yurika's actions at Reyseine Academy due to a promise he broke in the past. Asuna understood as well and as a result, the three of them lived happily together. Ending 2 - Asuna becomes completely attached to Yurika to the point where she can't live without her. As a result, Yurika caresses Asuna with love and affection. It is presumed that Asuna still lives as Yurika's sex slave. It is also unknown what happened to Katsumi and Youko during this ending. [Endings 3 and 4 are obtained if Asuna does escape from Yurika's dungeon] Ending 3 - Yurika lives as Asuna's sex slave and she is ordered to have a gangbang with multiple men. It is also assumed that Asuna runs for student council president for Reyseine Academy. Ending 4 - Asuna ends up getting arrested for committing embezzlement in Reyseine Academy. She confessed to her crimes but ends up getting bailed out thanks to Yurika. It turns out that Yurika became so attached to Asuna that she will do anything to help her. Afterwards, Yurika and Asuna live happily together as students from a middle class school. Side Note: When Yurika was a child, she was given a promise by Katsumi to always be with her because they loved each other. However, Katsumi was unable to fulfill the promise because he was caught up on his father's business. As a result, Yurika's heart broke which was the reason why she became very cynical and why she forced various students at Reyseine Academy to commit indecent acts. Yurika and Katsumi as children
  12. Main Menu I've played a visual novel called Bigaku Yurika & Asuna developed by M no Violet. This is a revamped version of its alternative visual novel titled Utsukushiki Emono-tachi no Gakuen. Bigaku Yurika & Asuna has more CGs and character sprites relative to its older version. Honestly for something that was made back in the late 90s, this visual novel really caught my attention. It feels like it has a shoujo theme based on the art style and the romance involved in the plot. It also contains sexual content which includes yuri, bondage and rape. Don't worry, there's no ugly bastards/NTR. Asuna: Ah..... I'm so sorry! Basically, this visual novel is about two protagonists named Asuna Sugihara and Yurika Ichinomiya who are students at a prestigious school called Reyseine Academy. Asuna is essentially a typical high school girl with not much going on at least in the beginning. Yurika on the other hand is the student council president and she grew up in a rich family. Yurika seems to believe in the theory of Darwinism where the strong survives while the weak perishes. She also causes the students in the academy to commit to various forms of debauchery and moral degeneration because of something that happened in her past life. Eventually, Asuna fell victim to this when Yurika proposed her to join the student council. As I played through the visual novel, it really caught my attention. Some of the scenes made me tear up. The character development was also decent. Katsumi: Hey, are you alright!? The ending you get will depend on what choices you make which will influence on filling up masochism and sadism bars at the bottom of the user interface. If you make choices that are more kind/permissive then the masochism bar will fill up. If you make choices that are more rough/assertive, the sadism bar will fill up. Both Asuna and Yurika have 4 different endings making it a total of 8 for the visual novel. What makes this game unique is that you can choose to play through the perspective of these two characters anytime you want except during the endings. Overall, I enjoyed playing this visual novel. I mostly admire the story and artwork for it. There were also some parts where the Japanese voice actors spoke in English which I find it amusing. Its unfortunate that it hasn't been translated which is why I had to rely on Textractor. It would be nice if someone did translate this visual novel so that a wider audience can experience this. Its too bad not a lot of people talked about this.
  13. https://vndb.org/v6482 Main Menu Ever since I watched the hentai adaptation of Black Gate -Kan'in no Gakuen- that has been discontinued, I always wonder what happens next after the second episode. That is why I took the liberty to play the visual novel. Black Gate -Kan'in no Gakuen- is an eroge that was developed by Image-Works and released back in 2004. The story features a boy named Narufumi Hosokawa but the visual novel allows to name him anything you want as long as it contains Japanese characters. He is a student at Kadomori academy who is considered to be a pretty average guy. He is also friends with Shizuku Kadomori and Kasumi Kadomori who are twins that have different personalities. Shizuku is more calm and reserved while Kasumi is more proactive and a bit clumsy. They are also known to have a distinct birth mark on their chest. Talk to Kasumi/Talk to Shizuku In Kadomori Academy, the story also introduces other characters that play key roles in the visual novel. Amane Izumi is another student at the school who is quite reserved, shy and nervous around certain situations. Fuu Katsuragi is the student council president who takes things very seriously and is inept with martial arts. Koyuki Hasegawa is a member of the student council and she is very attached towards Fuu. Nanami Ebizuka is Narufumi's homeroom teacher who doesn't take her job seriously and tends to be laid back. Haruko Fujisaki was the previous student council president in Kadamori academy before Fuu until she graduated and she is very skilled with a bow and arrow. And finally, Mizuki Komiyama is the class representative of Narufumi's classroom who also takes things seriously, especially for the school festival. Narufumi Hosokawa (Main Protagonist) The visual novel starts off with the students at Kadomori academy preparing for the upcoming school festival. At one point, Shizuku and Kasumi are seen arguing to each other about something before Shizuku stormed out of the classroom. After some time when Narufumi was alone in the classroom, Shizuku came and confessed her feelings towards him before having sex. After a few days, the school got terrorized by two humanoid earth monsters from a different world that were attempting to capture Kasumi. Kasumi, Nanami and Haruko would then open a portal inside the school that leads to a different world in order to get rid of the monsters. As a result, Narufumi along with his friends got transported to the alternate world. From this point onwards, everyone aimed to find out how to get back home and and Shizuku. This game has multiple endings that correspond to each character, and they are obtained based on the choices you make. As I played through the visual novel, the story was very mediocre and not that interesting. Its just a bunch of highschool students that traveled to a different world where they are fighting off monsters that are native to this alternate world (very similar to the isekai genre). Each character has their own route which reveals information about their past life, providing you insight on what kind of person they are and what hardships they dealt with in the past. CG Collection The story of the visual novel was also very inconsistent to its hentai adaptation. One example would be that in the hentai, the entire school got teleported to the other world along with Narufumi and his friends. This was not the case in the visual novel where only the characters got teleported. Another example would be that Nanami Ebizuku died in the hentai adaptation after getting stabbed by Shizuku which also didn't happen in the visual novel. I honestly thought that the visual novel would complement the story from the hentai adaptation, but I was completely wrong. I was very disappointed on the fact that the plot in the visual novel doesn't match with its hentai adaptation. In terms of the technical features of the game, there are quite a lot of flaws relative to the other visual novels I played. First off, while the UI has a save, load and backlog button, it doesn't have a skip button. The way to skip dialogue in the game would be to hold down Ctrl, and this includes dialogue that you haven't read before which makes it very difficult to navigate which routes you already have been through and which ones you haven't. You also can't fast forward through an elongated CG that is automatically scrolling during the game. In addition, the UI doesn't have the option to quick save your progress. You can only save normally which can be a bit time consuming if you want to grind on obtaining all the CGs and endings for each character. One flaw that I find to be the most annoying would be that the UI disappears whenever the character faces multiple multiple that you have to select in the game. You can't save your progress during these instances, making it very frustrating and time consuming if you're aiming to navigate yourself between different character routes. Settings You may think that this visual novel is trash, but for me personally, I don't think its inherently bad. Despite the flaws present, I was able to tolerate them and manage to get all the endings for all the characters, which includes the bad ones. I also enjoyed some of the background music, the background art and the voice acting was alright, especially for the two humanoid earth monsters. In addition, unlike most of the other eroges, the H-scenes are pretty short so I was able to get by through them without falling asleep. What makes this visual novel unique is that it contains these animated H-scenes for each of the heroines which looks pretty similar to the hentai adaptation. Unfortunately though, I was not able to obtain all of them, let alone the CGs because there was a programming error in the visual novel that prevents me from reading more in a particular route. Not sure if there is a problem within the files or its not perfectly compatible with my laptop. Needless to say, I was very frustrated especially after the fact that I went through a lot of trail and error just to get the H-scenes that I missed. I was however able to get all the endings of Black Gate so that's a win right there (I'll make a post for that soon). Overall, this visual novel isn't anything special. It just features a mediocre story with mediocre characters that are somewhat relatable. If you wanna play this visual novel all because of the discontinued hentai adaptation, I wouldn't recommend it. While the general premise is the same, there are many parts in the visual novel that don't match with the hentai. As for the company Image-Works who developed Black Gate, this was their most recent visual novel they made and released to the public. For some reason, they haven't made anymore visual novels ever since. So far they've only made three games and one of them is exclusive to the PS1. Since they haven't made a new game since 2004, and their most recent game being pretty mediocre, I can only assume that the developers have ceased operations. Since the developers put their hard work and effort into the games they've made for Image-Works its kind of sad to see that things are ending this way for them. I'm not sure what the developers are up to now, but I wish them all the best! End Credits
  14. OMG! Its nice to know that someone else is showcasing Black Gate. Thank you!
  15. Note: There are some bad endings within each route of the three heroines where Kyosuke gets killed that are not significant to the overall story of the visual novel. They're more like Game Over sequences, so I didn't include them on this post. (Momoko Momono Endings) (Ai Hongou Endings) (Yukino Hongou Endings)
