VN of the Month January 1996 - Ryuuki Denshou Dragoon

July 30, 2017

VN of the Month November 1995 - Eve: Burst Error

July 27, 2017

Youjuu Senki 2 -Reimei no Senshi-tachi- and Eve: Burst Error are the masterpieces of the month, but the upper hand is naturally with the legendary Eve: Burst Error

True Love ~Jun'ai Monogatari~ , Romance wa Tsurugi no Kagayaki - The Last Crusader- and Tokyo Twilight Busters ~Kindan no Ikenie Teito Jigokuhen~ are masterpieces for me, but only True Love ~Jun'ai Monogatari~ is a traditional visual novel and it's the most accessible to general public.

July 22, 2017
There aren't masterpieces this month, but Koihime has my sincere sympathy.

VN of the Month April 1995 - Mugen Yasoukyoku

July 21, 2017

VN of the Month February 1995 - Doki Doki Pretty League Dai 3 Wa - Minami no Umi no Kai no Maki

July 20, 2017
There aren't masterpieces this month, so it's high time to nominate the pretty league series episode Doki Doki Pretty League Dai 3 Wa - Minami no Umi no Kai no Maki as VN of February 1995. It's quite a simple and fun episode on top of that!

VN of the Month January 1995 - Doki Doki Vacation ~Kirameku Kisetsu no Naka de~

July 19, 2017
There aren't masterpieces this month, but among others Doki Doki Vacation ~Kirameku Kisetsu no Naka de~ is worth the honor of being VN of January 1995 the most.

VN of the Year 1994 - DESIRE

July 18, 2017

First, some statistics. Here's the chart of total number of VNs, number of listed VNs in this blog and number of blocked VNs for the years 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994. Number won't change significantly since for the moment these are all the VNs that vndb.org has for the noted periods.

Xenon ~Mugen no Shitai~ / XENON ~夢幻の肢体~

July 17, 2017
Foreword: This is Keno-san's scenario. He did not have much experience when we was thrown to produce scenario of the game that we know as Love Potion in two months time. Critics buried the game and that's why there was much more care in producing next game scenario - that was DESIRE, the game that I can't praise enough. The next year Keno wrote scenario for EVE burst error and on the wave of popularity move to legendary Elf company where he kept working on EVE franchise and created another masterpiece YU-NO and then left for Abel company. He created a lot of wonderful scenarios after that but we're interested in Xenon ~Mugen no Shitai~ scenario. It was developed after DESIRE but prior to EVE. So it was the golden age for Keno and he was experimenting a lot, trying to further develop the already complex DESIRE structure. This resulted in Xenon -Phantom Limbs-.

VN of the Month December 1994 - Xenon ~Mugen no Shitai~

July 16, 2017

VN of the Month November 1994 - File: Kokubou Soushou Jouhoukyoku Jouhou Rouei Taisakubu Josei Jinmonin

July 13, 2017
There aren't masterpieces this month, but if it comes down to the impact Ai Shimai ~Futari no Kajitsu~ is the winner, but only its original version, not the dreadful remake.

Uchuu Kaitou Funny Bee / 宇宙快盗ファニーBee

July 12, 2017


Another bakage from Alice Soft. I've no idea how to write reviews of such games. Guess a structured review won't go since there's nothing to discuss - there's no serious story or theme or interesting characters or anything worthwhile. All it has is bakage action, ero CG and lowest quality "variety" humor of stupid illogical events, not even sensible one. So I guess I'll just stuff it with images with some comments.

VN of the Month August 1994 - Shinsetsu Ooedo Tantei Kamiya Ukyou

July 11, 2017
There aren't masterpieces this month, but I can't let an average bakage to be the winner, so I nominate Shinsetsu Ooedo Tantei Kamiya Ukyou as VN of August 1994.

VN of the Month July 1994 - DESIRE - Haitoku no Rasen

July 10, 2017
Crystal Rinal - Ouma No Meikyuu , DESIRE - Haitoku no Rasen and Policenauts are the masterpieces of the month, but in my heart nothing can substitute DESIRE - Haitoku no Rasen.

VN of the Month June 1994 - Necronomicon

July 09, 2017
There are no masterpieces this month, but story-wise Necronomicon is the closest thing to a masterpiece.

VN of the month May 1994 - Tokimeki Memorial

July 08, 2017
Tokimeki Memorial is the only masterpiece of the month.

VN of the Month April 1994 - AmbivalenZ -Niritsu Haihan-

July 07, 2017
Urusei Yatsura: Dear My Friends and AmbivalenZ -Niritsu Haihan- are the masterpieces of the month, but the VN of the month is AmbivalenZ -Niritsu Haihan- since it's original work and not just anime spin-off.

VN of the Month March 1994 - Mirage 2 - Torry x Neat x Roan no Daibouken

July 06, 2017
Mirage 2 - Torry x Neat x Roan no Daibouken is the only masterpiece of the month.

VN of the Month February 1994 - Dragon Knight 4

July 06, 2017
Dragon Knight 4 is the only masterpiece of the month.

VN of the Month January 1994 - Fuzoroi no Lemon

July 05, 2017
Fuzoroi no Lemon and Welcome to the Cinemahouse are masterpieces, but the latter one has fewer elements of visual novel genre and thus Fuzoroi no Lemon is the game of the month.

VN of the Year 1993 - Demon City

July 04, 2017
Year 1993 was... strange. Most of praised games of the year were blocked by me due to nukige nature of the games. Those games include Kawarazaki-ke no Ichizoku, Rance 4, Viper series, NOVA, Ayumi-chan Monogatari, Kindan no Ketsuzoku. And a lot of quality representatives that I don't even want to mention here are purest brainless nukige. It really looked to me as if the world got mad after the strict censorship of 1992. The number of VNs that made into my list slightly decreased from 4.08 in 1992 to 3.75 in 1993 due to increased nukige tendency. 


Demon City / デーモンシティ

July 03, 2017
Foreword: I've played it in on a whim. Looked into synopsis and just could not believe that Cocktail Soft would do a full-scale fantasy eroge with rapist hero as protagonist. Fortunately, my belief in this old company prevailed.

VN of the Month December 1993 - Demon City

July 02, 2017
As usual, December stacks the most masterpieces. HHG Heart Heat Girls , Rance IV - Kyoudan no Isan - , Demon City , Kawarazaki-ke no Ichizoku , Zoku Youjuu Senki -Suna no Mokushiroku-. I found Demon City the most enjoyable and thus it's VN of December 1993.

VN of the Month November 1993 - Ooedo Tantei Kamiya Ukyou Vol. 2

July 02, 2017
Ooedo Tantei Kamiya Ukyou Vol. 2 is the only masterpiece of November 1993.

VN of the Month October 1993 - Nooch 2 Remy no Gyakushuu

July 01, 2017
Again a month without masterpieces. Nooch 2 Remy no Gyakushuu is the only hookable story-centered game, so I nominate if for VN of October 1993
