…I believe this will only work if I’m upfront here… I’m not even going to pretend to have the most enlightened view on the subject of sexuality. I’m pretty sure someone who neither cares nor is curious about exploring their own lack of romantic and/or sexual urges isn’t in a good position to judge. And […]
When I think about my childhood, it’s hard to visualize it without the above 8-bit. In fact, I’m not sure I know anyone who don’t know the most iconic Italian not named Corleone or Balboa. And without Mario M. Mario, I would argue that gaming would not have reached the zenith it now sits at. […]
Read Part 1 and Part 2 …You guys should see the word file on my laptop for this feature. This is getting ridiculous and I fully blame everyone at Cyanide Tea for their extensive bribes that apparently manage to hit the expository button in my brain to make this happen. Anyway let’s go into exactly […]
Read Part 1 and Part 3 here! CHIAKI SORATA Well after Part One my friends, I’ll promise to keep this short.

Here we talk about 2012’s Best Drama EVN Juniper’s Knot, their recently released first episode of Dysfunctional Systems and a bit about the future. Enjoy! VNs Now: It […]
Annnd we’re back! As much as I’ve always loved this particular feature, truth is I just got run down in the later half of the year and wanted to try something new. However, by popular demand, the Monthly Interview is back! So, who would be first to help me ring in the glorious return? Well, […]
So, have you learned anything today? If not, here’s a lesson for you! Never Google anything. It might inadvertently give JP an idea, so juts avoid it. What am I talking about? Well it turns out that VNs Now was among the answers Google have to the following query: ‘kansei full story’. Now me being […]

This episodic adventure came just about out of nowhere, spinning its tale over the course of the year in five downloadable episodes. It literally came out of nowhere to win Spike’s […]
