just thought I would start up a group, for these reasons:

1. I find thid VN has a very good message to it as well as just having a good story in general

and 2. this area of the forums has been dormant for a LONG time.


so if anyone wants to add anything such as thoughts, theories, questions or comments, please do, this area of the forum needs attention.

(and yes my ava is Rin from Katawa shoujo)

May I trouble you to ask, what is a Visual Navel? Razz Also, I would suggest adding a little more substance to your post. Saying "it has a good story in general" isn't really conducive to a discussion. What about it makes you think it has a good story and message?

ok firstly a 'visual novel' is a novel usually found on a PC or gaming console which is much like a game, other than the fact the only things you control are the choices the protagonist makes(usually, as some are just pretty much a novel as they allow no interaction at all). Also, there are usually backrounds and pictures in it, such as a picture of the person is talking to + whatever emotion he/she is feeling (look it up, you might get a better explanation than this)

secondly, If you look up this novel, you will find something unusual about all the girls in this Visual novel, and the story helps you accept people like them more in real life

oh and i ment to say my ava is a pick of rin and her friend who i forgot the name of Razz

I'd like to see a visual navel as well. It would certainly be a novel way to watch Net Flix Smile. I've read/played some visual novels, but I don't find them to be that compelling.

I think it would be useful to outline what you're looking for. Are you looking for a group to create a visual novel, discuss visual novels or critique a specific visual novel?

All joking aside, I commend your efforts to bring more "life" to this section. Novels do seem to be the "red headed step child" of the otaku world, in North America at least.

I know I wont find many people in this section, but at least I am trying
