not really a visual novel and more like a visual rpg MONSTER QUEST 1&2
They have a pretty funny and good plot but there aren't really any choices
Another good one is Utawaremono (kinda depressive) but its somewhat of an Srpg. you can try those oh and theres also Da capo and shuffle both normal VNs

Kyou was my favorite. i thought Nagisa was a dumb bitch who dies right when you fall in love with her. just like a pet goldfish

im currently playing kirkira and have completed shuffle

The visual novel in the picture is Sharin No Kuni. Though i'm not sure which, either Himawari no Shoujo or Yuukyuu no Shounenshoujo.

Katawa Shoujo


it's free and it's amazing

I am loving this so far!

Come to think of it, I don't think I've laughed this continuously for a while.
(Not at the whole thing, just certain bits have tickled me)

(Spoiler Alert)

this visual novel mostly will make you "think" or cry
but there are some funny part (and some kind of hidden things like ... funnyjunk.com/funny_pictures/3326791/2G1C/ )

(the funniest part : when rin want to see the "cloud" from emi's room)
<- picture kinda related

Yeah, That was one of the parts that had me laughing for a good five minutes before I could read on. :)

let me help you laugh more by put this achievements

(don't enlarge the pic before you finish the game)

XD
I finished Emi's route

All this talk of Kawata is making me want to play it again, but I still refuse to finish Rin's Route.

why?

because the baww good ending or rage bad ending?

(but it's true that i hate rin's path, make me angry a lot)

I just don't really like her personality at all. Her path was also tedious to go through; I gave up near the beginning of Chapter 4.

*ps: don't try to go to " 2girls1cup.com " . it will ruin your life

Along these lines, where is a good place to download VNs for free?

play saya no uta

if you want one that could easily go VERY much south if even one thing wrong, had a sorta of a lot of 'feel' moments, subconsciously make you want to make your life better, and, to top it all off, was made by a bunch of people who met over 4chan, try katawa shoujo. google it, find their site, it's free download in english.

u know they did an ova for her route right?

Yes, but I still resent that most of it is comprised of dating Ryou, and obviously one episode simply isn't a substitute for an entire path.
She's my favorite character, but her path is probably the most boring.

even in the game tho...most of her path is ryou's...

If you type in "Vndb" in Google, you'll fine a site called "Visual Novel Database". you can't download torrent from there, but you can find patches for most there. I mainly use this site for reference and finding new VN's. I totally recommend playing this VN though, the story is exceptional and definatly bound to impact you in some way. It's called Sharin no Kuni, Himawari no Shoujo (Wheel country, Sunflower Girl when translated) I've linked the English patch in response to another comment below, and you can find the VN on P bay.

On another related note, I did think that Kyou and Ryou were left out quite a bit in the Anime adapt of Clannad. I didn;t expect that all characters to be tottaly fleshed out in it anyway, as you can only fit so much of 50+ hours of story into 44 Episodes (including Afterstory). Kyou is one of my personal favorites though, your gif kinda explains why I like her so much xD.

If you want to play another Key VN, then try out Little Busters! It'll give you alot of feels, trust me. All of the characters are extremely likable, which is why I hold it so high on my list. If you need anything else, just PM me and I'll see what I can do. :)

Thanks for that detailed response! As such, I bestow upon you one of my finest gifs--use it wisely.
