2. Tanetsumi no Uta たねつみの歌 [iMel Inc.]  Misuzu lost her mother at a young age. On her sixteenth birthday, in the spring of 2023, she is visited by a lone girl. The girl turns out to be her mother, Yoko, also aged sixteen. Yoko explains that she has been chosen as a Maiden to conduct the Seedsow Ceremony in the dwelling place of the gods, the Eternal Realm, and has traveled from 1996 to invite Misuzu along on her journey. The Seedsow Ceremony is a funeral for the gods, and is necessary for a new generation of immortal deities to usher in a new age. Seedsow Maidens must travel the Eternal Realm and have the ancient god elders accept their deaths before True Winter comes and defiles the land. Accompanying her mother Yoko, Misuzu travels to the year 2050, where her own sixteen-year-old daughter, Tsumugi, joins them as they make for the Eternal Realm. With the addition of Hiruko, who claims to be Misuzu's younger brother and acts as the group's guide, the foursome journey through lush landscapes made no less resplendent by True Winter's looming approach. The young group has been brought together as though by a miracle, but what awaits them at the end of their journey? Time travel post-apocalyptic travel is not what I'm anxious for. But for visual novel medium such work with proper scenario is really a fresh gust of wind. |

Rather typical cross-dressing charage. |

4. Holy Undead ~Himote de Bocchi no Shirei Jutsushi ga, Seijo ni Tensei Shite Otomodachi o Fuyashimasu~ ホーリーアンデッド～非モテでぼっちの死霊術士が、聖女に転生してお友達を増やします～ [Kinetic Novels]  Frankel was hated as a wicked necromancer and an abhorred man. But he was not evil, he was just an unpopular, socially awkward loser who liked the undead. However, society thought poorly of him as a necromancer, and he was shunned, hated, and finally defeated by the heroes Cain and Flora. Just before death, Frankel invoked a forbidden curse that would make him the King of the Dead. However, the magic failed, and he thought he would simply die...but for some reason, he is reborn as Yuricia, daughter of Cain and Flora, with the memories of his previous life! A love for the undead! All women—be they malicious bullies or not—are goddesses! Inside this dainty, pretty girl lies abnormal principles. And Yuricia—ironically—receives the blessings of the Holy Mother and acquired an unprecedented five Gifts, including incredible healing power! However, Yuricia uses her power for her own personal gain. Her goal is to be reborn as a necromancer! But the healing interferes with her dream. Various trials and errors are on repeat. From an outsider's perspective, could it just be eccentric behavior? However, those around her always react favorably to the various uproars Yuricia kicks up, and despite her own intentions, she ends up helping many people. She accomplishes many great feats and eventually becomes known as the Healing Saint... Though many handsome men adore Yuricia, she is indifferent. This includes the handsome Anthro swordmaster Wolferos, her brave brother with a sister complex Alexei, the cursed and highly sought after prince, and the seriously injured future hero. She heals them from top to bottom, and doesn't care if they call her a street healer. All she wants is super rare undead materials! And...? She looks prim and proper, but inside she is actually a he—a necromancer loser. This is the story of healing and salvation woven by a beautiful girl with an unhinged moral center! Reincarnation has become such common concept in anime that I'm glad it's piercing visual novels as well. |
