Trinoline All Ages Version

I always found forbidden love exciting, there’s just nothing more thrilling than reading a love story while knowing that your emotional heartstrings will be tugged at sooner or later. Sadly, it’s not always true to find visual novels like this that step too far out of the box and stand out over the others. However, that’s just not the case with Minori’s Nakige visual novel [url=https://noisypixel.net/trinoline-review-pc/]Trinoline,[/url] from publisher MangaGamer. While the game plays off its heart-warming themes, it slowly reveals it’s true nature of being an emotional roller coaster that I didn’t want to get off. Reading through Trinoline left me on the edge of my seat throughout most of its runtime, which made it impossible for me to walk away. https://youtu.be/_fiYUFU0wr8 Trinoline revolves around Shun Nanami whose sister tragically died in a drowning accident. He never really got over her death and still thinks about her, blaming himself years after the accident. While he is living to make it up to her, his childhood friend Sara, whom he hasn’t seen in years, suddenly transfers to his school. As if this wasn’t a more coincidental reunion, his deceased sister appears in front of him. To his surprise, it wasn’t his real sister, but an android named TRINO, who just so happens to have his sister’s memories. It’s revealed that Sara developed the android with the goal of making Shun happy, but as they are living together he realizes, while she does indeed have his sister’s memories, she is developing her own desire and conscience, even though she is not human. The story in Trinoline ended up becoming really special to me, which is rare given that straight romantic love stories usually don’t have a lasting appeal on me. What makes this game so great to read through is the stems from the pacing in the first half of the game. It starts off slow giving the romance time to develop while also giving the reader time to get know each character. With that said, after the first confession, the pacing does increase which caught me off guard. It ends up feeling like the developer noticed they were reaching their limit on fleshing out these characters and suddenly made up an unrelated plot twist to bring the story to an end. However, the conclusion felt unpredictable and unexpected to the point that it felt out of place given where I assumed the story was going. As someone who is really into Sci-Fi, the themes of this category were never truly explored upon. Sure, there are moments where TRINO’s memories get explained, but the sci-fi part about this game is that she’s an android. This ends up making the entire story feel more like circumstances were created for a guy to be able to romance his sister legal. However, where the story lacks in sci-fi themes, it ends up making up for in its romance and character development The slice-of-life and romance elements in Trinoline were extremely well done. Even though there are a lot of slice-of-life scenes, which could get a little overwhelming, not a single one felt unnecessary or boring. This could only be attributed to how well the writers structured the story. Trinoline works with a time jump feature so when there is nothing interesting happening for the rest of the day, the game jumps right to the next morning. This is a method which should be a standard for visual novels and I haven’t given a lot of thoughts about it with previous games that I’ve played, but it was noticeable that even though the game has many scenes every scene ends up being precious and fun. It is also important to keep in mind that Trinoline branches off at a certain part of the story and it’s possible to romance other characters. Which might be very misleading since the character TRINO plays the biggest role at the beginning of the story, which may change based off of the choices of the player. Something, which is really noticeable, is that Trinoline works with italics to stick out important words or put emphases on the text. This is a really nice feature for someone who doesn’t understand Japanese one bit. Additionally, it works with capslock, to make the content more clear to the reader. As Shirone is the name of Shun’s sister, TRINO referred to herself as SHIRONE as well. It was still impossible to mix them up this way, even with the same names, while the visual novel itself is very realistic regarding the names and therefore, sometimes there were misunderstandings between the characters when they talked about Shirone. When it comes to the artwork and animations, Trinoline is by far one of the best visual novels I ever played. I often feel like many animations are overdone or simply unnecessary in visual novels, sometimes the small things matter and this is certainly the case in Trinoline. There is lip synchronization available in this game with blinking eyes in every scene. Additionally, in special scenes, the hair is even animated and the character sprites or the background are moving. While it sounds quite overwhelming at first, it was so naturally implemented in the game and almost every scene felt like they were CGs, sometimes I couldn’t even differ between CGs and normal artwork anymore. Even the sprites are positioned very carefully and realistic, depending on the situation, instead of just throwing them in the middle of the screen. The only thing I have to critique about the art style is that it felt kind of off when the game was only showing the ground or the ceiling instead of the whole room for a long time in a few scenes. The game’s soundtrack is lovely and there are plenty of cheerful and sad tracks to be found, which fit well in each situation. Music is really an important part of these types of stories, especially in sad scenes, for its atmosphere and Trinoline managed to nail this perfectly. This game even contains different OSTs in the end, depending on which ending the player achieved and of course this high-quality visual novel contains superb voice acting, well, except for the main character Shun. To sum it up, I absolutely fell in love with Trinoline, even though I was disappointed that they didn’t play more into the sci-fi elements of the game, I had a lot of fun playing through the game for the slice-of-life scenes and characters. The game is pure eye-candy and to top it off I couldn’t help but be consumed with emotions thanks to the game’s excellent writing, which made it was impossible for me to not think of TRINO as a human even though I knew she was an android. While I cannot recommend Trinoline solely for the Sci-Fi aspect, I can wholeheartedly recommend this visual novel to everyone who is into bittersweet love, crying a lot, and playing through an amazing visual novel that you won’t soon forget. [i]Author’s note: I would like to mention that the developer from Trinoline, Minori, announced their cessation of operations on February 28, which really left me gloomy as I absolutely enjoyed Trinoline and wanted to see more of their future work. While there are still plenty of games left to translate to English, the episodic game Supipara, however, will be left uncompleted for now but I sincerely hope that Minori will start to develop games again in the future.

wondering why I restlessly buy this once released while having preordered a hardcopy of the JP version much earlier. This won't help with ANYTHING. Minori is dead. There is no need for euphemism. Little hope for Supipara 2. No more heroine voiced by Kusuhara Yui here. Seems that accepting the truth is still painful. Even after weeks.

[h1]The Story[/h1] At first sight it seems that Shun Nanami is just your average high school student who only worries about his grades and girls. However, in reality he suffered a great loss: his sister Shirone drowned at sea many years ago. This left our protagonist with a long-lasting trauma and he promised to live every day for both himself and Shirone. He tries to smile every day and not to feel depressed, but it is not that easy to forget. Every hot summer reminds him of his loss, and his emotions are locked behind the mask of indifference. [i]Even if one “loses their heart”, so long as they “see clearly”, they will trend away from death, toward life.[/i] - [b]As long as he remembers, he has a reason to continue living.[/b] There is a rumor that an amazing android has been developed and will soon be introduced to the world to change it forever. One mostly uneventful morning Shun finds out that his childhood friend Sara, who is a genius scientist and the one behind the android development, transfers to his school. She all of a sudden asks him to meet her in the Birdcage in the evening. Shun walks to the place that holds his best memories to find out that there is indeed somebody waiting for him. But just imagine Shun’s shock when he sees not Sara but his dead sister. Alive and playing the piano. As if nothing has happened. Is it a dream? Or maybe the amazing android was not just a rumor? [h1]Main Features[/h1] [b]First things first: the writing.[/b] It is very good, as well as the translation. Still, I think that the first part of the game really took its sweet time to actually bloom into something more dramatic. It is important for characters to get enough development, of course, but I would rather see an evenly spaced story than the one with a very slow beginning and a very fast ending. The good thing is that there are several romantic interests and their respective endings, which somewhat compensates the problem I have mentioned above. The romantic parts were very sweet and sad at the same time, the slice-of-life ones were hilarious and just occasionally boring [i](I must have played too many games of this kind…)[/i], and the sci-fi elements were also present – wish there were a bit more of them, though. [b]Characters[/b] are always an important part of any story. Speaking of Trinoline, it offers some interesting personalities. Yes, of course we have your stereotypical female childhood friend. Wait, we even have 3 of them! Yuuri, a lively and sometimes careless girl (but not a dump one, mind you); Ayaka, a huge fan of ice cream with strange flavors and just a sweetheart; and Sara, an elegant and smart lady with a talent for android development. There is also Hanako, a very charming blonde girl who seems to be a foreigner on this small island but is still trying to make the things right – in her own strange way, of course. And the last but not least, there is our boy Shun – somewhat socially awkward and silent, but with a heart of gold and lots of painful yet sweet memories. As you can see, the characters seem to be rather similar to the ones from other romantic visual novels, and you are not far from the truth. However! I should also mention that I found all these people really nice – yes, overused personalities are never a good thing, but when they have some depth to them, some interesting features that make them unique, then I am ready to overlook this shortcoming. To cut a long story short, I was not disappointed with characters and enjoyed reading their stories. Most of the time. [b]The artwork[/b] is brilliant, and one of Trinoline’s most interesting features is that it has animated CGs. I will be quite honest here, when I first saw one of the pictures moving – a girl was blinking her eyes, - I thought it was just my imagination. Then she blinked again, and then the ocean started sparkling, and another girl moved her mouth while speaking, and then she started walking and the background was changing its position too, and…To cut a long story short, everything is moving in this game! I have been playing visual novels for a long time, and I will need barely two fingers on my one hand to count the amount of fully animated titles I have experienced (one of which was actually a hentai one…ehm). So moving CGs are a BIG deal for me, guys! Not to mention that they are beautifully made and enhance all scenes - a marvelous thing to watch and read. [b]The voice acting[/b] is great even despite some high-pitched maidens (that I always dislike). I wish the main character was also voiced, but we all know that this hardly ever happens in this type of games. [u][b]My two main complaints:[/b][/u] first, too much drama during some scenes – mostly the one closer to the end. I do not have anything against sad stories and tragic events. After all, they often help to create interesting characters. But if there are too many of them, then I cannot but feel overwhelmed. I cry during film trailers, geez! Trinoline was definitely aiming to kill my poor heart in the end. Second, I find the main romantic interest quite controversial. Shun falls in love with android that looks exactly like his sister. Sister, for God’s sake! Can you imagine any normal love story that involves romantic feelings between siblings? And do not you dare to tell me about Game of Thrones here! The only saving grace is that TRINO (the android girl) at least develops her own personality, so one can say that she becomes a different person in some way. Still, this is a very tricky issue that I do not quite feel comfortable to discuss here and now. And one very small negative note: I wish some characters had smaller bust. There was really no need for this fan service. [h1]To like, or not to like…that is the question! [/h1] Trinoline is a visual novel that will be quite interesting for seasoned fans of this genre and might become a really good start for the newcomers. This is a heart-wrenching story about love, loss and finding your own way in life. And yes, it will make you cry quite often. Also, this game is very, very beautiful in many aspects: artwork, animated CGs, music, characters, etc. On the other hand, some parts of the story can be disturbing. What is your attitude to romance between a brother and a sister? If Aki Sora anime and manga are not up your alley, then we have a problem here. And if you are definitely not into melodramas, then no, it is not a visual novel for you. There are a lot of funny and sweet moments, but boy will I lie if I say that this is a lighthearted game! To sum up, I cannot outright recommend Trinoline to all players, but I also do not have that much to complain about. If none of the drawbacks mentioned above are important for you, then give this story a chance! You will have an amazing time reading something that will bring all your emotions to their limits.

[quote][h1]Full review (including score): https://youtu.be/YaTAagPARv8 Written review below![/h1][/quote] [h1]The rundown:[/h1] [b]Pros:[/b] + Visually appealing + Story without the fluff + Custom font option [b]Cons:[/b] - Random spikes of melodrama - Shoehorned H-scenes - Lackluster settings Trinoline is actually a pretty messed up story if you think about it. It’s about the protagonist meeting an android replica of his semi-blind sister, who had accidentally drowned many years ago. Given that this is a romance visual novel, you can kinda see where this is going. Regardless, it does provide for a rather average story, one that does without the fluff usually seen in the genre, but is also marred by random spikes of melodrama. [h1]Pros:[/h1] [list][*][b]Visually appealing.[/b] If there is one thing that Trinoline does really well, it would have to be how it presents itself. The game is full of beautiful backgrounds, great character designs, and plenty of cool-looking camera angles that are not often seen in the genre (such as extreme close-ups). On top of that, it is also highly animated, with several animated scenes, character motions, and facial expressions that really lend themselves well to making a more immersive VN experience. Even the soundtrack is pretty good, further defining the game’s already great aesthetic. In fact, this aspect of the game ended up being my favorite about it, as regardless of its other problems, it at least looked good in the process. [*][b]Story without the fluff.[/b] Normally, when you play a visual novel like this, a lot of the time you spend reading it is spent on seemingly useless scenes. These can come in the form of cooking scenes, classroom antics, shopping scenes, and even the walk to and from school. All of these serve to pad the reading experience under the guise of building character, but really, most of them can be skipped without anything of value being lost. Trinoline, on the other hand, strays pretty far from this formula, providing a reading experience that doesn’t incorporate too much filler and doesn’t waste your time in getting to the actual “story”. It’s a rather refreshing take on the genre, even if it does lead to some problems (more on that later). [*][b]Custom font option.[/b] This is a rather minor pro, but it seems like most VN releases nowadays completely omit the option of having a custom font. Trinoline, however, does allow the player to set a custom font. So, if you’re not a fan of the default font, you can change it to whatever you have installed. I did like the default font, so I saw no reason to change it, but it was nice to know that I could have played through the game with TF2’s font if I wanted to.[/list] [h1]Cons:[/h1] [list][*][b]Random spikes of melodrama.[/b] Trinoline‘s biggest problem would have to be just how it handles its drama. Given that this is a nakige (which literally means “crying game”), you’re going to have some drama, even bits of melodrama here and there. Unfortunately, Trinoline simply does not manage these elements properly, introducing random spikes of melodrama into the story that not only feel incredibly contrived, but also destroy any sort of immersion you may have had up until that point. It’s not like this just happened a few times though, it kept coming back again and again. It was like the authors deliberately wanted to maintain this high level of drama, regardless of the effects it may have on the overall story. Unfortunately, this pretty much ruined the ending for each of the game’s character routes. Everything would be progressing at a relatively steady rate, with some drama here and there, only for this completely random melodramatic twist to be introduced in order to end the story. And this is coming from someone that regularly enjoys melodramatic stories (one of my favorite anime is Ano Hana after all). Really, the writing here just completely missed the mark on what makes those stories tick. [*][b]Shoehorned H-scenes.[/b] This only applies to the full version of the game (for which a free patch is available for the Steam version), but I found the H-scenes to be completely shoehorned into the experience. In fact, the very first H-scene was so random that I actually laughed out loud during it. They’re not only completely misplaced, but really just unnecessary given the type of story that the game goes for. This is definitely one of those visual novels that was designed without the H-scenes in mind and only had them added in order to boost sales. In fact, I believe this to be one of the reasons behind why minori (the studio that made this game) closed down. In their official closing statement, they stated that there was a “divergence” between what they wanted to make versus what modern-day VN customers want. It felt like they wanted to make a serious, emotional story about love and moving on, but had to actually be able to sell their game, hence the inclusion of such H-scenes. Fortunately, these H-scenes are entirely optional if you get the Steam version, but that comes at the expense of playing an effectively censored version of the game. [*][b]Lackluster settings.[/b] While Trinoline does good on the font front, it unfortunately lacks in other areas when it comes to settings. These issues include the game’s tendency to revert back to windowed mode whenever you minimize or click out of it, the inability to adjust game animation speeds, and the complete lack of a window opacity option. That last one was particularly annoying to me because I usually play with a pretty distinct window, so as to make the text easy to read. Here though, the only option you have to make the text more readable is a shadow effect applied to the font, which, while a decent option, is not as good as having adjustable window opacity.[/list] [h1]Overall:[/h1] Visually, Trinoline is a rather impressive game. However, when you get to the writing side of things, it unfortunately falls flat, leaving behind a story marred by its own melodrama. I would even have a hard time recommending this to fans of melodrama, as it is just so random here that I honestly cannot understand the decent score it has on VNDB. Regardless, if you do decide to check out the game, do note that you’ll need pretty high “onii-chan” tolerance to make it through.

This is the most disappointing VN I have ever read. Just by checking the screen shots you can tell the art is fantastic and it is made by minori. What could go wrong? Well the writing/story is awful and 75% of the game is crap for starters. The only good thing is the adult patch is free and the CGs are plentiful and very high quality. I read Sara's route in 4-5 hours and that was the only enjoyable part of the game. There are three routes in this game (Yuuri, SHIRONE, and Sara) along with the "common" route. Sara's route is locked behind completing the other two for no real reason. The common route you can read in about 5 hours but is pretty bad. There is nothing common about it and focuses almost completely on SHIRONE. You would think you accidentally triggered her route but then it just stops for a dumb reason. It's so awful the Sara route doesn't even use it and just branches off near the middle. The Sara route IMO feels like the only real route and the rest were just filler material to pad the hours. The sex scenes sometimes (mostly) happen at random and go on for way to long. The first one I thought in my head of Joseph Joestar's "oh my god!" then busted out laughing at how random it was. The story goes to crap right there and doesn't recover until you get on Sara's route. The text isn't that interesting and I found myself skipping it after awhile since they all just repeat themselves. The CGs get an A+ but they are very vanilla here and are censored. I would have to spoil the story to accurately explain how dumb it is. Save yourself 15+ hours and don't even waste your time. The low amount of ratings on Steam make the actual rating percentage much higher then it deserves. This VN is not worth reading.

I like this, I really do. I really want to recommend this highly, but I can't. A lot of it is excellent; the stories, the morals, the thought provoking situations where I genuinely was struggling to decide what I would do in such a situation. However, some things I can't really forgive that easily really do let it down. - Ambiguity. Two of the three routes leave off with several loose ends and unanswered questions. - Massive amounts of build up towards particular plot points that then end blandly and minimal fanfare. - A lot of filler. A significant proportion of the reading time is spent on everyday stuff where nothing happens. Overall, there's a lot I love in this, but there's a lot of undeniable problems that left me finishing feeling unfulfilled and disappointed. It's worth playing, but it's not as good as I'd hoped based on the author and the description.

[h3] 破碎的扉页，断片的剧情 [/h3] 游戏体验好似在做片段阅读，映衬在精致的画风和声优们的倾情献声下的，只是剥离破碎的空洞内核。 推完序章便去Bgm检索，发现剧作里有御厨，不免得直呼完蛋。先不说对亡者的亵渎这种伦理观的问题，笔力不行却选这种掺杂着伦理观和生命论的主题，加之离谱且刻意的剧情让本作的体验更显戏谑乏味，让读者既无法共情主角，更无法理解剧本的创作思路。 剧情序章明明选择了拧巴的妹惑剧情，却又放弃了“宿命”的描写，站在另外两条角色线的立场上我甚至都觉得不算纯爱作，更浪费了开篇的铺垫，至于真女主线[strike] （真？） [/strike]难以写出振聋发聩的主旨倒也正常，但写嘴炮剧情＋寡淡鸡汤是否有点不尊重读者了。[strike] 大抵我是个御厨黑吧 [/strike]。 不过能在2025年看到M记的游戏更新官中，或许也算是来自天堂的“白音”吧，或许这不是一部好作品，但靠着精致实用的画风，可爱的角色（特别是白音），出色的音乐和楠原配的“坏女人”，依旧给我带来了深刻的印象。况且M记都这样了，还不忘给我们转，更舍得在演出效果（[u] 意义明确的特写镜头 [/u]）跟音乐上下功夫，故： [h3]毕竟死者为大，[strike] 画风好用 [/strike] [/h3] 还是给个好评吧。

好无聊。。。 还有这大病男主

这作在小黑盒上叫《特里诺兰 全年龄版》，实际上是有官方补丁的，去发行商MangaGamer官网或者随便哪个补丁站可以下。我知道大伙儿就关心这个。 中二社真正的最后一作《その日の獣には、》明显完成度很低。《Trinoline》作为中二社最后一部有正常完成度的全价作，在批评空间有中二社（英仙座之后的）作品第二的中央值78分，仅低于前奏诗的80分——当然，也就是个一般的水平。 这作的系统评价一般。画质还是720p或1080p，高分屏看着有一点点糊，建议用magpie超分。20*8的存档对我个人是略不够用的。在游戏播片的时候随便按个键（比如鼠标/键盘快捷键调整音量）就会跳过播片，需要注意。 文本方面，全篇玩下来既没有什么乱码也没有什么离谱翻译，应该是认真人工翻译校对了。这点还是值得好评的。 剧情方面，个人觉得算是无功无过吧。个人觉得这作不算废萌，有badend的作品无论如何不能算。除了纯日常废萌之类的谈不上主线的东西，Gal多多少少是有些无病呻吟或者空降矛盾的，最后多少会有些机械降神解决矛盾。我个人觉得这作发病的理由还算合理，虽然男主多少沾点经典日式dinner亚萨西嘴炮大王，但对比中二社其它几作也就是正常水平。因为男主的性格弱点是剧情推动力的一部分，所以不太好多说什么。就不过多剧透了，我觉得还不错，既不算催眠也不过多侮辱智商。声优演出和配乐很到位，三条线都还算是很有沉浸感。不过我相信大部分人都是玩过了来补票的吧（笑 角色美术设计这块，个人觉得白樱≈夕梨＞沙罗。说真的，真女主沙罗有几张CG那个脸和人体比例真的挺蚌埠住。我猜沙罗是为了对标前几作的真女主的，毕竟是剧情锁+楠原（石原舞）配音，但是有几张CG真的有失水准。 声优这块儿，个人觉得三个女主配得都非常在线。白樱那个声音符合机器人形象，甜美但又缺乏腔调，慢条斯理中有种无所谓的空虚感。夕梨那个声音也符合情感充沛的元气少女的形象，特定情况略幼了一些，但倒也不违和而是显得很可爱。沙罗就更不用提了，毕竟是楠原。媚宅这块儿算是拉满了。 个人觉得在补票作品里算是很值的。
