Twice as good as the first game, Jisei. (Which is really good!) And more than twice as long. With nice music, well done English voice acting, lovely art, and a new mystery to solve - it's worth your time. Highly recommended. Now onto the final game in the trilogy!
KANSEI is a direct sequel to JISEI, so if you haven't played that game first, you'll probably want to, as it references events and characters from the previous game. If JISEI was like a prequel, KANSEI is where the story really begins, and it's a game I feel you really need to play with the first one in order to get an idea as to whether or not this series will be one for you. This time around, you're tagging along with the characters you met in JISEI as they go to report to their client - William Auten himself, the chairman of Auten Engineering. There, you stumble into yet another murder investigation, though fortunately this time you're not a suspect. During your investigation, you'll also pick up tidbits about the mysterious main character's past, like his name and a bit of his history, as well as clues about the experiments Auten Engineering was running in the past and their connection to events in the present. You'll also meet the fan favourite Li Mei, who is possibly even more of a mystery than our protagonist. KANSEI improves a lot on what was already good in JISEI. Now when you click examine, the main character, nicknamed Kangai, doesn't just tell you what he observes. The game relies on you to do the observing [i]for[/i] him, by clicking on the various objects around the room and reading what he has to say about them. This isn't just a feature for fun, either - some of the items you click on will unlock new pieces of dialogue or lead you to clues that help you solve the case. Something else KANSEI has improved on is the branching routes that visual novels are famous for. Now instead of only having the true route and a dead end route, there are actually four endings - two regular, one a dead end, and one the true end - which are necessary for unlocking the Epilogue. Endings are determined by the choices you make, and choosing to trust - or not trust - certain characters can change the route you're on. You'll find that completing all of the endings, and replaying the game to select different choices, is necessary in order to learn everything you can from the game about the series larger mystery. The voice acting also steps up a bit this game, as you can tell the voice actors are getting more comfortable in their roles as the recurring characters. But if you prefer to read on your own, you still have the option of turning the voices off, or just turning them off for specific characters, just like in JISEI. If you enjoyed the last game, and you love mystery stories with a psychic twist and a great sense of humor to lighten the mood, this game is definitely one you should try. The JISEI series only gets better with each installment!

Wir lesen uns wieder durch die Geschichte und haben natürlich auch hier wieder die Möglichkeit von Raum zu Raum zu gehen um diese zu Untersuchen oder um mit anderen Leuten zu sprechen und Fragen zu stellen. Die Grafik und auch das Gamepaly an sich hat man hier gut verbessert und alles wirkt aufpolierter und moderner. Es gibt insgesamt 3 Endings (Bad, True & eine art Secret). Das Voice Acting ist auch hier wieder sehr gut gelungen [h1] Achievement Schwierigkeit 2/10 [/h1] Es gibt insgesamt nur 3 Erfolge.

[i]Тут мала бути цитата з другої історії (Fortune's Always Hiding) в збірці Екстазі Ірвіна Уелша, але по-перше її б довелося цензурити, по-друге це був би спойлер, тож я натякнув і буде без цитат.[/i] Зазначу, що у порівнянні з попередньою грою (Jisei, я про неї теж писав і зара піду трошки відредагую) в різницю між релізами в рік взагалі не віриться, якість дуже помітно підстрибнула вгору. Ця частина взагалі не виглядає так, наче їй 10+ років. А позаяк грати в цю гру без першої частини не має жодного сенсу і ні, тут теж не розповідають історію ГГ, лише дають купу усіляких натяків (пройду третю частину - відредагую), хоча мене лякає той факт, що четверта частина була анонсована і не вийшла, - одразу до справи. Сподіваюсь, ви вже в темі про таємничого безіменного ГГ з його таємничими здібностями, бо сюжет буквально продовжується там, де зупинився в попередній частині. Отже, візуально і технічно гра справді набагато краще, озвучка не те щоб жахлива, але абсолютно ніяка, зате вона є. Позаяк детективну частину з біганиною і опитуванням всіх про все ніхто не відміняв (хоча вона стала набагато легше в технічному плані) - рекомендую одразу зазирнути в посібник, бо гру знову доведеться проходити тричі і це збереже вам кілька годин життя, абсолютно не впливаючи на сюжет. Загалом друга частина не без проблем, які були і в першій, але набагато більш "сильна" і цікава. Деякі натяки вже можна співставити, щоб мати уявлення про сюжет, але їх справді замало. Сподіваюся, що в третій все ж розкриють ГГ, бо інакше Ктулху мені свідок, я повернуся і зміню всі три відгуки на негативні. АПД: Я обіцяв змінити відгук на негативний? Я зробив. Це направду найкраща частина з трилогії, але я не збираюся заохочувати оці "всі подробиці буде розкрито в наступній частині" і те, що розраби не пишуть великими літерами, що серія не закінчена і сумнівно колись буде закінчена.
Kansei is the second out of three Games in Sake Visuals Murder Mystery series is a very enjoyable, quick Visual Novel experience and one of the earlier ones at that...together with the original Katawa Shoujo and Narcissu one of my first ever VNs! Its still a joy to replay in 2026 for various reasons such as: -nice art -a consistent plot -likeable characters - good music 10/10 for me...
Kansei is the second installment in the Jisei series, and you can tell that they improved on almost every aspect of the first game. Kansei is much longer than Jisei, we learn more about our group of gifted teenagers, and we get an idea of the overarching storyline. Of course, you also get to guess who’s the killer this time, and there are multiple endings to discover. Kansei features a bigger cast of great English voice actors, and one cannot help but fall in love with these characters – especially with Li Mei!
The mystery continues! PROS: The game comes across like an actual mystery in this title, with the same positives as the last: rooms to search, and people to speak to. It feels like a natural progression of the title before it, continuing off just a day or so after the last. It once more feels like a short, loose episode. It also goes into a bit more detail on some of the psychic powers presented, and even hints at a larger narrative. CONS: All the same problems of the previous, with the exception of the lack of detail on the finer parts of the powers, are presented here. However, the largest problem with this title, in my opinion, is the 'persistent variable.' Essentially, you must complete a story line once, technically fail, and go back to complete it again to get a different ending this time. It doesn't feel natural, it doesn't flow well, and it's an annoyance that I hope they remove in the future titles. ACHIEVEMENTS: A simple trio, gotten through getting the game's various endings. Just play to win them. FINAL: This game feels like a natural second step after the first. Though it does have it's share of problems, and it doesn't feel like it could hold up as well by itself, it still is a solid title, and worth playing, despite it's very noticeable faults.
This is the second game in the series, picking up immediately where Jisei ended, and although it isn’t entirely necessary to play it I highly recommend it. The quality is still there and there are three fully-fledged “endings” this time, although one of them is doesn’t makes any sense but maybe it will in the next game. The one thing is that the sound mixing is a little weird and some voices can be louder than others but it is a very minor complaint. It is a good experience and meant to be played with the other titles. PS: The one thing that you should notice is that one of the endings, “Imprusted?” won’t give the achievement and someone in the guide also seems to have dealt with the same problem. It happened in the first game too but I loaded the save and did it and it worked fine, but in this one I redid this ending two more time and still didn’t got the achievement.
Play this just after I finish Jisei. I must admit, this game will be confusing without walkthrough, but since I used one, then its ok. Different with Jisei where there is only one linear (good) end, you should kind of finish all ending here to get a perfect one---including the bad ones. I mean that's happen a lot with VNs, but it can be confusing if you have no idea what to do. But since you play in steam anyway, you should kind of get the idea then. Story wise it's okay. Get back and forth to upstairs-entrance-hall-rooms can be tiring, but in the end they're worth it. I can't really enjoy most of the voice acting, though, but maybe that's because I just not get used to it. I still listening to them, but if you have the same problem, you can kind of turn off the voice so honestly it's not a problem. As a murder mistery, idk why I dont really care about who is the murder since this one have one main mistery/story which I'm looking forward more than finding about the murderer. Tl;dr if you like mystery, I pretty much recommended this. If you use walkthrough to get achievements, please be careful with each moves because one wrong move can make you not get an achievements. I was failed to get the Imprusted achievement in my first try and must redo it from start before finally get it and realized I did one wrong move in the living room in my previous try.
I loved this game, it is nice to see Kangai make more friends. Too bad, he missed his chance to get answer (but came at the right time to solve the murder). What is strange is that the nephew didn't realize at the end of the story that he was now very rich and instead he just flew away. (I would have stayed ... :) ) Then again, I love the universe, the characters are both well drawn and interesting.
