海と陸、それぞれ生きる二人の救いとなる、ビターで素敵なお話でした。 冒頭の注意書きでも触れられているような彼女たちの地獄と、それに対する心の揺れ動きがとても丁寧に描かれており その生々しさゆえに読み進めるのが苦しい場面も度々ありましたが、だからこそ…と二人の惹かれあう過程に思いを馳せております。 好きなところはたくさんあるのですが、個人的に海魔ちゃん達のアイコンがふわっと動く演出が大好きです。かわいい。 深い海の中にいるかのような没入感を与えてくれる音楽と、アイーシャの歌声も素敵です。
人生初の百合作品として淀み海の溺れ唄出会えたことは、私にとって衝撃的な体験でした。 海魔であるギーゼラが、人間であるアイーシャを喰らう対象としてではなく、いつしか聖域のような純愛の相手として慈しむようになる奇跡のような変化に、これまでにないほど感情移入しました 読み手として究極の選択を迫られるたび、本来踏み出すべきではない一歩を選んでしまう二人の歩みに触れ、もし違う運命が許されていたらと選ばれなかった結末を想って胸を揺さぶられました 素晴らしい物語をありがとうございました!
残酷な世界に恐ろしい怪物、そして可愛らしい恋心! ギーゼラ様が魅力あふれるキャラだから好きになる、キャラが好きだから感情移入してシナリオに入り込める 胸を締め付けられながら最後までプレイして、読み終わった時にはとても温かな気持ちに満たされました! とにかくギーゼラ様がかわいい!幸せそうな笑顔も好きだけど、不機嫌そうな顔が一番かわいいのでこれからもいっぱいふて腐れたり怒ったりしてほしい。
10/10[spoiler] with thoughts, tears and blessings for Gisela and Aisha[/spoiler].
真的很难很难很难给这样一个作品推荐,不然日本制作者会认为中国玩家的钱也太好骗了 真的,你们什么时候能摆脱裤裆文学?从那点器官里解放出来好吗?
起初以为是又一部转换视角版的《想吃掉我的非人少女》,但原来是《孽尘海的美丽传说》吗,黑暗啊黑暗。 “美貌是弱者的灾难”这个道理已经太老掉牙了,不如说人一无能做什么都心酸;但是“你寻求的美,和我否定的美不是同一种东西”这句话倒也令人豁然开朗。 这是一篇并不幸福浪漫、也不会发生任何奇迹的悲情故事,尽管整体叙事节奏之拖沓令我一度十分无语,但不可否认我最后的心情依然由于两个女孩间的相互倾诉而如鲠在喉。 最后,个人认为文艺作品的创作还是需要考虑受众的,详细描述极端的作恶其实缺乏教育意义,《西西里的美丽传说》之所以广受赞誉就在于它把人性里最普遍的平庸之恶描绘得入木三分,闻者足戒。而本游戏恐怕只是让人徒生感慨而已。 整体来说给个八分吧,白河豚确实是没什么好的能吃,给点高分也算是食大分了^^
Though relatively short, this vn is an emotional journey with shades of grey in a visceral and tragic world. I don't want to spoil everything, but go in expecting ephemeral moonlit meetings rather than carefree romance and be aware that despite the chibi art the story explores some extremely dark themes.
very short, very emotional, very doomed, very liberating the main story only took about 2 hours for me to read through, and i tend to read at a pretty slow and intentional pace. not a whole ton of extra content - there doesn't need to be. the plot does a really good job using supernatural themes in support of relatable narratives. it is easy to read themes about objectification and political oppression (and emancipation) from the plot without it feeling like you're being bashed over the head. the emotional notes hit hard - while it borrows subject matter that i've seen done *very poorly* in the past it manages to pull it off without feeling cliché. some other reviewers found it depressing, which i guess i can understand. it's definitely *sad*. however, rather than feeling hopeless, i actually found the narrative pretty liberating and empowering - sometimes a relationship doesn't have to *last* for it to transform and motivate you.
