Review: BUSTAFELLOWS Season 2
“Completion” date: July 15, 2026 I put quotation marks around completion because I only did the best endings of the five characters & skipped the epilogue & bad endings – did read about the synopsis. The reason is mainly I was quite behind schedule & sins of Kaleido has released today. I did not particularly…

Review: Utsusemi no Meguri
空蝉の廻 Completion date: July 4, 2026 I rarely find trigger warnings necessary, but this game is one of the exceptions: Non consent/rape, physical abuse. This game is one that I’ve been eyeing for a while, before I could even playing games in Japanese. A bit of a cult favourite? After playing the game, I can…

Replay completion date: June 21, 2026 Common route thoughts / Impey / Fran / Van Helsing / Saint Germain / Lupin / Second Playthrough Verdict in 2026 In character sections it follows the format of the story > my thoughts which is the majority of length.

Review: Fuyuzono Sacrifice
冬園サクリフィス Completion date: February 26, 2026 After replaying Piofiore base game, what do I have to lose in playing another game with religious vibes and an MC who grew up in the church? What can go wrong? Apparently, everything. Disclaimer: I’ve only played the “happy” and “sad” endings to complete CG acquisition. I didn’t play…

Piofiore no Banshou: 2nd Playthrough Musings
Second-clear date: February 21, 2026 In 2026, this hit game from 2018 remains one of the biggest IPs of otome gaming and does not need its own introduction. Back then, I played it with the atrocious traditional Chinese translation the first run. Given I am preoccupied studying for my board exam, I don’t really have…
