ratboi Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I haven’t read a visual novel in about 6 months, and that’s mainly because recently, I’ve found them to feel quite sameish and boring. I believe I’ve been reading too many visual novels about Japanese high school. So, if you would be so kind, could you please recommend some really good visual novels that aren’t based around the character going to high school, and have have an English patch/release? Thanks.

adamstan Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I was going to recommend Kazoku Keikaku, but I see you're playing it already. From the ones I own and you haven't read, there's Eve:Burst Error, Enigma and Nocturnal Illusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamysyu Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Umineko was already mentioned, so I'll go with Fata Morgana, Planetarian and Seabed. I'm not sure about the 'boring' part, but all of these are definitely pretty unique. ratboi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciel_yuri Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Hmm how about Utawarerumono? (because that's what I'm playing right now) Otherwise, maybe Galaxy Angel? ratboi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plk_Lesiak Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 If you consider EVNs an option, CUPID, Sweetest Monster, Analogue: A Hate Story and Highway Blossoms all have nothing to do with high schools. Deniz and ratboi 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0xm2n Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 * Eden* . * Nekopara (the most over the top cute moe game that doesn't have a high school setting xD) * Planetarian . * Sorcery Jokers . Has very few high school scenes, and is mostly about the over-arching plot. Has a lot of action. * Muv-Luv Unlimited and Muv-Luv Alternative (though the military base does have classrooms). ratboi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albedo Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Remember 11, Kikokugai, Saya no Uta, Subarashiki Hibi (there's high school stuff... but it's very, VERY different from your run-of-the-mill VN.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranzo Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Galaxy Angel It takes place in space in the galaxy named after a nation that fought in the Boer War. So it is pretty far removed from a high school setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nandemonai Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 The one "with the detective" mentioned above is Demonbane, and it's great. There's also Littlewitch Romanesque, but depending on your taste for loli you may want to go with the Steam version. Cartagra doesn't really feature a high school at all. In Soul Link everybody's stranded on a space station (if you happened to have purchased it before it poofed). Then there's 999 / VLR. Eve Burst Error is old, so its translation is very iffy, but it's still great despite that and it's only $5. Koihime Musou is a Three Kingdoms isekai. Funbag Fantasy is a nukige with a plot that doesn't involve anything remotely like a high school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
