Ever Maiden – An Informal Review
Why is being a Zodi so bad

In June 2021 mysterious titan of the Visual Novel scene Liar-soft announced the release of a yuri (genre known for girls holding hands and occasionally being gay) horror mystery game titled Ever Maiden or Evermaiden as I will refer to it since I just personally think it makes more sense. Evermaiden is a game written by Umihara Nozomu who had previously written Fairytale Requiem for Liar-soft, as well as Shinsou Noise in collaboration with Silky’s Plus and the artist formerly known as DMM, and also more recently Adabana Itan (which I would link to but it’s blocked in europe) in collaboration w ..read more

The Seishunverse – Fictional Universes in Visual Novels

Introduction and Background I recently finished the Alcot Honey Comb published visual novel Kanojo wa Tenshi de Imouto de together with my friend Corn (who can be found here if you’re somehow reading this without already knowing him). Judging by the official page the game looks like an innocuous mid-price cute girl focused game which is pretty in line with the brand’s history. The game is written by Seo Jun who’s done a whole four games for the brand before:  Shunki Gentei Poco a Poco!, Aete Mushi Suru Kimi to no Mirai ~Relay Broadcast~, Satsuk ..read more

2017: An Effort Post

So as 2017 comes to a close I’ve decided to put some effort into writing (not editing said writing though) about the eroge I really enjoyed from this year. I’ve picked a couple of games and given them some arbitrary headings with a quick little blurb before the reviews and recommendations. The reviews are written spoiler free since this is a highlight so they don’t go particularly in-depth. I’ve also clearly marked the individual games’ sections with screenshots and the name of the game as big blue links so if there’s a game you don’t want to read my ramblings on you can easily skip it and rem ..read more

2021 a Retrospectivaganza®

Usually I prefer to restrict my retrospectives to only new content from the year I’m writing about, and I know that by straying from that this year it will seem like I just didn’t consume enough 2021 media to write a post. But I already did that for 2021 back in early 2019 so I’m turningthis into a Retrospectivaganza© instead. I will of course cover games but I’ll also dip into manga, music, and maybe even movies! I’ll do my best to keep everything coherent but I can’t promise anything. Music to read to or alternatively this Oh yeah and of course a FAIR WARNING this Retrospectivaganza will tal ..read more

Yami no Koe: a Casual Spotlight
Why is being a Zodi so bad

Foreword There’s been three different posts I’ve been wanting to put out there this year. I’ve even gone as far as planning out sections of them and attempting to write drafts but hit a wall every time. This post is not one of these three. After hitting all kinds of walls I found myself desperately looking for something to shamelessly comfort myself with and ended up landing on a series of games that I’d had in my peripheral for quite a while. The original Yami no Koe was released in 2001 and was the first work released by Black Cyc, known for games like Extravaganza and Gore Screaming Show. B ..read more

So fair warning this post is going to be a bit different from what I usually write on this blog, you know when I actually do write anything. This post is still as uneducated, unedited, and completely based on personal experience as any other one so the format will be about the same but consider this a kind of content warning I suppose. Oh and actual content warning: This post talks about some pretty shitty stuff because eroge is full of shitty stuff so if you don’t want to get a bit upset like ignore this one and I’ll try to do a nice one next time! I tend to want to highlight and talk about t ..read more

2019 – A Retrospective

by whyisbeingazodisobad

Once a new year comes rolling around I always feel like it’s time to look back and highlight my favourite reads of the year that just passed us by. 2019 is really no different even if I ended up reading less than usual. I had some very pleasant surprises with new releases and discovered quite a few older works as well but… for once I feel like I’ve said and written everything I wanted to express about these works. Whether through conversations with friends or random tweets I’ve drained the mind well dry of content. Still feeling the need to but some words on digital paper I’m going to do somet ..read more

So as 2021 finally draws to a close, well at least here in Sweden now that we’ve abolished daylight savings time the rest of the world still has a couple of months to go, it’s time to look back on and highlight some of my favourite nudie games of the year. The post is sorted in an arbitrary order with one game at a time. Even though I’m avoiding spoilers if you don’t want to know anything about a particular game you can easily just skip that part. Well then… Let’s do this!   Highlighting Sticking to Formula Seishun no Warau ha Uma no Warau ~My Girlfriend is a Horse~ is the latest g ..read more

A Retrospective – Part 2 Pronant Symphony

Introduction – Excuses So it’s been two months since I did the first part of the retrospective and 2018 isn’t exactly fresh in our memories anymore. Perhaps this would be a good time to highlight some games released in 2018 before they get lost in an ocean of high profile 2019 releases to never see the light of the top of someone’s backlog. Instead what I’m gonna do is talk about another 2017 doujin RPG I ended up playing last summer even though I struggled so hard to make my last post readable! So put on the absolutely beautiful main theme of the game (which is royalty free by the w ..read more
