lol, a kamige is a 'god of games', in other words, a game that manages to do almost everything right (there are hardly any games that manage to get everything right) and are just that good.  They are the cream of the crop, the best of the best.  Konata yori Kanata made is considered to be the ultimate utsuge by long-time vn-players, for instance.  Hapymaher utilizes its music to enhance the story so well, that a 'good' game became a truly 'great' game.  Games that go above and beyond are called kamige, lol.

I am glad you posted this list. I am wondering what to read next. I am currently reading Akatsuki no Goe in jp. Either I will read the sequel afterwards, but that's unlikely because it's alot longer.. Or I will read another vn.

 

I am currently learning japanese, so I prefer to be rather careful with choosing my vn's.

-I want a vn that's not too long (8-20 hours at normal reading speed)

-not too advanced language  ( Not lots of uncommon words and terms, that JParser will prbly have problems with. Re:birth colony -Lost azurite-  for example had so many hacker and computer terms it was just horrible to keep with what was going on.)

-Focused on story rather than moe stuff (Example: My girlfriend is the President)

 

On your list I am interested in these titles: (Most interested in Eden*)

 

Eden*

Konata yori Kanata made

Moshimo Ashita ga Harenaraba

 

Do you think they would fit me Clephas?
