Gonna finished Fureraba, looking for similar VN

Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm very new to VN and I am nearly finishing Fureraba (it's not my first VN but it is one that actually glued me to VN)

I think that I'm gonna play The Fruit of Grisaia next once I have done re-route this game when I have free time

But I don't think it will be enough for me so I'm looking for VN that similar to this (Fureraba)

To begin, I am looking for English translated VN (cuz I have 0 Japanese knowledge) and I want the VN that have similar vibe to it.

What I consider might be lovable characters (I really like every characters in Fureraba, they are all great waifu material), style of art (Idk how to describe this), some humor (I like rom-com but pure rom is fine), translation (at least not weirdly translated)

School theme will be great because I may not like weird theme such as too much fantasy or sci-fi, I also prefer 18+ eroge but if this is all-age masterpiece then I don't mind . . . for gameplay Idc much but I would prefer much gameplay or choices as possible

I don't care much about plot (I think this game plot is somewhat average) as I play it for reliving some stress

Thanks!

I havn't played Fureraba yet, but I'll list some of the ones I've played...

Grisaia is a great choice. Has quite a lot of comedy, sexual themes ...... and some strong emotional feels. Pretty unforgettable story, one way or another. If you enjoy it, you can check out the rest of the trilogy (and the Idol girl spinoff too).

Katawa Shoujo https://vndb.org/v945 . Many people read this as their first VN. The characters are pretty well written.

Kono Oozora https://vndb.org/v9093 . This is probably right up your alley. Quite light hearted, but still has some drama.

Clannad https://vndb.org/v4 . If you want a read with massive emotional feels, this would probably be it (or some other title by KEY). It's ..... really long though.

Nekopara series is all about adorably cute catgirls in comedic and lewd action (and even a few heartwarming moments). Each Vol is rather short.

Wagamama High Spec https://vndb.org/v17823 . Great art, cute music, manga and eroge references ..... and more sex then the usual eroge.

Symphonic Rain https://vndb.org/v38 . Consider this after you've read a few of the above suggestions, and are looking for something a bit different. The characters have surprising depth.

Strictly speaking, Fureraba is a lovely-dovely, icha-icha-heavy story all about a highschool guy and his GF with dating-sim elements and little else.

If you are looking for something similar to Fureraba, then fruit of grisaia is definitely not it (it's a very good VN though and well worth your time if you are looking for something different)

Frankly speaking, I don't think you can find anything like Fureraba if you can't read non-english VNs.

I think these 2 are some of your best bet (Wagamama is quite a bit heavier on moe than Fureraba. Take note if you don't like this). If you do try IMHHW (Kono Oozora), make sure you install the fan translation as it is miles better than the official Moenovel TL.

Clannad is a emotional tear-jerker story. It definitely does not have the same vibe as Fureraba and I'm not sure if it's what you are looking for.

After that, maybe you can try Da Capo trilogy

Lastly, heed the fact that the original Da Capo is an extremely dated VN (not to mention it's extremely expensive when compared to modern VNs). It has severe flaws by today's standards (The route-leading choices are not even clearly indicated. I had to make my own list of which choices lead to which route in order for the VN to be playable). If you want to get into the D.C universe, read D.C 3 instead, or perhaps even Dal Segno, which I think you will like.

+1 for Dal Segno. Had some tear-jerking moments (at least for me)

Spoiler

Ame!!  I cried almost like you're supposed to cry while reading KEY VNs...

and some say it is too slow, but I enjoyed it nevertheless.

 

As for other school-romances, besides those posted by @littleshogun, you may also try Princess Evangile, Noble Works and KoiChoco. I liked them all too.

Thanks a lot, I will keep these suggestions in mind once I can continue playing VN (so that I don't have to mind about length)

Kinda shame that I can't understand Japanese which I don't think I could study and understand it in 3 months lol

I might try playing KEY games if you really recommend it to me

I heard that there are many VN from the same dev (smee), is there any news about translation

(I heard about lover able project but it will take a lot of time right?)
