Dairoku: Agents of Sakuratani – Shu ~ Plot & Character Analysis

Well, this route was a pleasant surprise!

I’ll be honest. Nothing about Shu struck me as “my” type. He’s a young-looking, bratty, immature hero, who arrogantly looks down on those around him for seemingly no good reason.

I had actually planned on never playing his route, but since I dropped a couple of English localized otome games, I’m down to very few options to play in English. And since I like the world of Dairoku, I decided to give this route a shot.

And I’m so glad I did!

Nil Admirari no Tenbin: Teito Genwaku Kitan – Hisui Hoshikawa ~ Plot & Character Analysis

I watched the Nil Admirari no Tenbin anime before I really understood what otome games were. So, imagine my surprise when I learned there was a text-based game that expanded upon the world of this show. Now, I’ve come to realize that anime adaptations of otome games can be hit or miss. But I genuinely believe that Nil Admirari has one of the better anime adaptations, granted I have not seen them all. So, after really enjoying the anime, I was really excited to play the game!

And then I learned, the game was only available in Japanese.

Well, fast forward a few years, and I finally had the courage to try Nil Admirari no Tenbin: Teito Genwaku Kitan.

This game is BEAUTIFUL! I love the story, art, music, and voice acting! I read the prologue and, yes, it was exactly like the show but that was to be expected. It was the prologue, after all. So, I dove into the common route, excited for the adventure that awaited me.

And…well…the anime kind of spoiled the route.
