Narcissu 10th Anniversary Anthology Project

2026.4.18 “死并非生的对立面，而作为生的一部分永存。”——《挪威的森林》 无法开口的事，难以开口的事，那就带进坟墓里去吧，正如濑津美默默咽下的土豆。作为将死之人，要做的，便是默默吸收所有阴暗，把最好的一面留给生者。我不希望生者对死者还抱有遗憾，我希望生者认为死者是坦坦荡荡，从从容容赴死的。至于真相是否如此，已经不重要了。因为，死者已矣，生者还要继续。作为生的永存的那一部分，我希望是美好的。如同濑津美最后的遗照里那样，穿着连衣裙比基尼，在海滨朝阳下甜美微笑，宛如一个正常的花季少女。 在最后的最后，一定要记得微笑。 2026.4.28，水仙1，2，0通关 “黑夜给了我黑色的眼睛，我却用它寻找光明”——顾城《一代人》 通关了水仙1，2，0，我才真正明白水仙系列的内核——看似写死，却是写生。其实水仙并非致郁之作，它让玩家明白了什么是死，以鼓励玩家更好地去活。见过黑暗，才知道光明的可贵。作者就是用了这样的手法。 [h3] 死并非生的对立面，而作为生的一部分永存。而逝者作为永恒的印记烙印在生者身上的那一部分，我希望是美好的，以鼓励生者连同逝者未活过的那一部分，继续加倍勇敢且微笑地活下去。[/h3]

水仙，以自恋为花语。以自我凝视之花为名字的游戏，讲述的却是一个个关于主体间性的故事。人在孤立的自我凝视中无法完整认识自己，主体的形成依赖于他者的回应。面对必然到来的死亡，生命的意义并不在于改变结局，而在于在有限的时间里被另一个人看见、理解，并共同留下存在过的证明。主体通过向他者敞开、建立起主体间性的连接，那一刻，主体终于摆脱了孤独的自我凝视。如同盛开的水仙，故事的二人没有改变世界，却曾在彼此的生命中留下温柔而清晰的倒影。

神作，无需多言

生亦何哀，死亦何苦，向死而生，原神牛逼。

故事的结局早已被决定，没有选项没有重来，对住在7F的他们而言未来是多么的遥不可及，嘴上说着没什么，但其实内心还是渴望活下去的吧...感觉自己不是再玩游戏而是在看着一个人犹如流星般一瞬即逝的一生，Narcissu神作啊TAT

I went into "Narcissu 10th Anniversary Project" expecting a collection of sad stories about people who are sick and dying. Indeed, that is what this VN is about, but I think it is much more than that as well. These are stories about regret, loneliness, love, friendship, faith, and acceptance. Stories about what people do with the little time they have. It is about simply wanting someone to understand you before it's too late. [h2] Narcissu 1 and 2 [/h2] These two are the heart of the entire series. The first one has such a strange atmosphere. Watching Setsumi and the protagonist leave the hospital and drive around, knowing what awaits them, gives the story a strange feeling and a constant sense of mystery. Of course, it's not a traditional road story where the destination matters. In this case, the journey itself is what matters. Narcissu 2 completely changes the way you look at the first game, especially by going back and showing us a younger Setsumi. Himeko's story also adds so much to the overall experience, and I really liked seeing more of her and her relationship with Setsumi. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3789763279 [h2] Himeko's Epilogue[/h2] After spending a few hours with Himeko and Setsumi, getting one more opportunity to see what happened around Himeko's story feels like a final goodbye. It's a short story, but I think it works really well as an epilogue to everything we experienced with these characters. [h2] Narcissu: Zero [/h2] This one was my favorite of the additional stories. There were several moments where I got a feeling that reminded me a lot of "Clannad" (both the visual novel and the anime). I felt that throughout this entire part: in their relationship, those little moments between them, the cute romance, and, of course, the sad ending. I loved this part. If I had to choose only one story from the entire anthology to experience for the first time again, it would probably be Zero. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3800063700 [h2] A Little Iris [/h2] The strangest story in the anthology. Not in a bad way, but it does feel very different from Narcissu 1 and 2, Himeko's Epilogue, and Zero. It takes place in Medieval Europe and follows a princess who doesn't want to die and a warrior who doesn't want to live. Because of that, I didn't connect with it in quite the same way as I did with the main Narcissu stories. But it is still worth buying and reading. It's better to approach it as a separate story that belongs to the Narcissu universe, rather than expecting it to recreate the same atmosphere as the originals. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3801910255 Final thoughts: A very good Visual Novel that I recommend you buy and play. Be careful, though: a few sensitive themes are mentioned multiple times throughout the game, and a lot of sad things happen over and over again. Keep this in mind before buying or playing it. [u] What does it mean to be alive when you know that you are going to die soon? [/u] I think that's the question that stays with you throughout Narcissu. Even when the stories are not directly about the same characters, they all approach that question in their own way. And that's probably what I liked the most about this anthology. It isn't simply a collection of sad stories. It's a collection of stories about people. Highly recommended.

straight peak. words cannot describe how great of a visual novel this is. It will bring a yet bittersweet, but motivating feeling to you. It will change your mindset, no matter what you are going through it is a game that is meant to stay on your mind, and bring some hope. Absolutely phenonmenal soundtrack, and pacing. Even as a novice in these novels, if you are just starting out, I highly reccomeend this. And no matter what, keeping smiling, keep laughing.

漫长而短暂的时间，痛苦仍绚丽的生命，既是关于离去的故事，又是关于留下的故事。
