ReviewA nukige about a holy priestess who has philosophy debates with a much older man, who happens to be a nihilist Isekai not-hero and the protagonist.

The girl herself is extremely cute, and I approve of the age difference. However, there are way too many not-sex scenes of various kinks before you get to any actual penetration.

In my opinion, every single H-scene should have penetration and a nakadashi option, or I simply get bored and quit after the third, fourth, or fifth "nope, not putting it in this time either" scene, perhaps never to pick it up again. This is not the right way to do a nukige.

I'm not a fan of sex toys, and I definitely don't think the cute girl should be taking sex toys in her butt when she hasn't even lost her virginity to the protagonist yet.

< report >Slow buildup to penetration? Inconceivable!

< report >If only they picked up a -good- Yoru no Hitsuji title instead.

< report >I put a sextoy in my osu manko before being able to put my dick in a vagina, does that make me a slut SomeDude-sensei?
Imagine being this judgmental.

< report >Yeah, I read somewhere that Yoru no Hitsuji has some good titles, but this... probably isn't the best example.

Besides, this genre is so incredibly subjective... you either like the way they do it, or they don't. I have played through better examples of single-heroine nukiges with an age difference, such as this one.

The entire point of a nukige is that there isn't supposed to be a slow buildup, it pretty much just jumps right into the action... and when the "action" feels incomplete, then it feels to me like they're being lazy and using half-finished scenes. Even Norn games, as bland as they are, don't string you through several not-sex scenes before getting to the real sex.

< report >This is a corruption nukige, though. Gradually raising the girl's libido until she's pretty much begging for a first penetration seems pretty valid as far as corruption porn storytelling goes.

< report >Give link a try instead, probably the best translated single heroine nukige.

< report >#5 It's a weird example of "corruption" though as the tags basically match those of the more pure love type nukiges. Trying to combine these two opposed concepts... doesn't typically work out well. Anyway, I just dislike corruption, I suppose, so something like this could never earn a high score from me.

#6 Since that link has this tag, there's no way I'm touching it. But thanks for the suggestion.Last modified on 2022-09-14 at 23:16

< report >Looking back at this review, I definitely agree that Love Lab would have been much better off translating the Lolita series of Night-time Sheep VNs instead of this one. They address the same sorts of depressing philosophy, but do so much better, and without the need to focus nearly so much on non-sex nukige content from the very beginning. It's unfortunate that the vast majority of translators refuse to touch lolige, as Porori writes them quite well.Last modified on 2023-05-14 at 07:23
