7/10,作为渊娘的第一部作品,完成度和世界观收束能力已经初显功底,但和之后几部比起来还是太过生涩(无奈我是先玩了甜池、DMMD再玩的这一部,所以萌新最好还是按照创作先后顺序入坑)。 渊娘的特色是出场的每个角色都不是闲笔,各有各的立场和处世价值观,并且配角会承担很大一部分解释世界观设定的功能,这部出道作品中这一特色也有明确体现,然而情节铺陈和情绪渲染方面略显小儿科,部分角色的登场和谢幕有种强行拔高价值渲染气氛、为主角的情绪转变服务的刻意感,其中“猛”这个角色就是非常典型的代表。 渊娘的世界观设定能力也非常出彩,其卓越的叙事能力也使人物与世界观融为一体,让玩家相信角色的确生活在这个世界之中,然而咎狗在这部分依旧稍显稚嫩。主角AKIRA在模拟格斗游戏中是冠军,然而到了真人赛,几个路人杂兵就能将他击败,战斗描写方面也毫无“战商”可言,完全看不出他之前格斗冠军的素养,虽然能理解如此设定是为了服务戏剧冲突,毕竟这个故事的感情线很大部分需要靠主角“战损”来推动,但未免有些“崩人设”。世界观设定中由于战争影响,孩童被随机收养,以至于情感淡薄,这一设定与配角“猛”煽情的亲情故事也存在严重的割裂感。此外,真人赛比赛的残酷,与主角AKIRA对死亡慎重、对Keisuke杀死猛这件事的重视之间也存在割裂,这种割裂在隐藏线尤其明显,仅仅因为对隐藏人物的同情怜悯和感同身受,AKIRA就从被杂兵痛殴、不会杀人、为了不熟悉之人的死亡伤春悲秋的青少年,转变为原谅隐藏人物的残酷,甚至和他一起逃亡的杀手,并不是说这种转变不可以,而是铺垫太少,转变太快有些突兀。有多个结局的Shiki线也同样的问题,不过那几个结局恰恰是因为转变几乎没有铺垫,反而有种“整活”的趣味感。 在感情线方面,相比其他几作,咎狗有种渊娘个人喜好和商业性博弈的纠结感,Keisuki的存在类似于Sweetpool的哲雄,对主角的情感成长有着极其重要的影响,但是此类人设显然不是商业上首推的“烫男人”,于是Shiki腾空出现,时髦值拉满,但情感拉扯实在浅薄,黑王子与灰小伙的故事至少在写作咎狗之血时,渊娘还写得不太顺手。同理还有正太线,渊娘之后的作品就干脆没有正太(笑),大概正太不在渊娘的XP光谱上,RIN的性格塑造还是很可爱的,但是肉戏的张力甚至比两个处刑人还要低一些。相反,老男人应该是渊娘的舒适区,虽然Motomi父爱变质略显突兀,但是情感拉扯以及暧昧和浪漫氛围方面塑造得得心应手,两人的温情戏可以说是全篇之最,青梅Keisuki和天降Shiki都没有这么腻歪的。 关于世界观收束,我其实对隐藏角色意见很大,因为他的苦难和他的行为恶劣程度并不成正比,谜语人与情感淡漠的角色设定更是让我摸不着头脑,而Akira对他的救赎与其说是救赎,不如说是圣父般的接纳与共沉沦,然而感情戏铺垫过少,甚至为了让两人顺理成章得共沉沦强行殉了竹马,让我感觉非常不值。不过DMMD的隐藏我也不是很喜欢,大概这也算是渊娘特色吧笑。
100% PERFECT GAME - Togainu no Chi ~Lost Blood~ My first PERFECT GAME ever, and it was truly wonderful. This one is not just another visual novel. It’s a raw, merciless descent into a ruined Tokyo where survival and desire walk hand in hand with violence and betrayal. This is Nitro+CHiRAL after all. It is the same dark and reflexive atmosphere, with well-constructed characters with whom he can truly sympathize. PLAY THIS GAME IF: -You love dark, intense Boys’ Love with real emotional and psychological depth; -You’re a fan of Nitro+CHiRAL and their signature style and storytelling; -You enjoy dystopian, post-apocalyptic settings full of moral gray areas; -You want a story where choices actually matter and lead to very different endings. -You appreciate beautiful character designs, stunning CGs, and top-tier voice acting; -You’re not afraid of heavy themes; -You like visual novels that stay with you long after you finish them. THE STORY: The story follows Akira, a young fighter emotionally numb from a life defined by violence. Arrested for a crime he didn’t commit, he’s given a single chance at freedom: enter the deadly underground tournament called Igra and destroy the syndicate Vischio from within. What follows is a gripping tale of power, manipulation, fragile bonds, and the thin line between salvation and complete ruin. The ART is great. CHARACTER DESIGNS s are iconic, CGs are beautiful and impactful. FULL VOICE ACTING is top tier. The cast delivers raw emotion that makes the dark scenes hit even harder. CHOICES MATTER. Your decisions genuinely shape Akira’s fate, relationships, and how deep into depravity (or hope) the story goes. SOUNDTRACK is pulsing and memorable — it perfectly matches the gritty, cyberpunk-noir tone. Final Score: 10/10 One of the strongest classic BL visual novels ever made. Would I recommend it? Absolutely yes. Enjoy 🏳️🌈

[h2]-Before starting, i applied the official JAST BLUE patch -[/h2] Visual novels are a genuine hit or miss for me. And I have to say I never felt so much in common with a story's protagonist as I have with this one. Honestly, with its overall strong and intelligent psychology, it makes you reflect on relationships quite a bit, be it a friendship, or a romantic one, as both include another other than yourself as you know; and makes you question whether they really are worth their inherent complications, they are more complicated than people admit, especially so if you're one to believe in remaining yourself no matter what. but i won't get into details as it's personal territory, and I'd rather write about things that at least half of readers can understand and feel. We are all different after all. If I have to add anything more generic though; let's just say this is a visual novel that is partially Saya no Uta-esque in style and soundtrack, (around half of the composers worked on The Song of Saya), with a post-apocalyptic, urban environment and the usual dramatic and deep dialogues BL VNs are known for. On a more personal note, it also reminded me of Baldr Sky but without the cyberpunk. Interesting thing to mention: The 'statues guy', (if you went through the game you know), he actually creeped me out in a way similar to the Master from Fallout 1 - which makes sense considering how actually similar his soundtrack and environment align with that game, not to also mention his interests of course; Arbitro came straight outta the decadent movement from the 19th century. Overall, if you like the Nitro+ style, yaoi / BL, fine with or interested in “interesting elements” and post-apocalyptic worlds and with some good, added violence that may or may not get to disturbing degrees. Should be a good choice.
