    I've played a good chunk of CLANNAD, but haven't finished it since it is gigantic, and I've had to start over. :'( I'll get back to it someday. I also bought Higurashi from MangaGamer, but I haven't started it.

    The only one I've actually finished is G-Senjou no Maou, or Devil on G-String. It's a pretty sweet battle of wits VN where you take on the role of the guy who's been adopted by a yakuza boss, and you essentially are part of the yakuza. It has the usual wacky japanese school antics, but the real meat is trying to stop and outsmart "Maou". It is an eroge, so there are some H-scenes here and there, but if you only head for the Haru end (the main ending), you miss most of them entirely if that really isn't your thing.

    But yeah, would highly recommend it.

    I just got Demonbane the other day and have been playing it quite a bit. I was expecting something Lovecraftian but it's really a hot-blooded super robot anime -- er, visual novel. The story's pretty good and it has a lot of humor, also there are very few porn scenes so far which maybe a good or bad thing depending on where you stand on the sliding scale of prudishness versus pervyness.

    well, where do i get tsukihime legally?oh and i dont mind the hentai scenes at all. i didnt mention in the op but i should be receiving amorous professor cherry in a couple of days.from what i read thats a "hard" eroge without a good story it seems...but yeah i want something with more story to it. like i said i liked the kira kira demo and i'm thinking of buying the cheapest ver from mangagamer but the thing about buying from them is most of their titles are a tad expensive,the same goes for robert's anime cornerstore and also i have heard of right stuff but they say that despite of right stuff beign cheap and all.their shipments arent always on time.plus, they need to call you home in order to verify if your a minor or not which i dont mind since i'm an adult but at the same time i'd like some privacy because i'm shy and just the thought that someone knows that i'm to this stuff is just embarrassing haha

    Perrandy, I just bought Demonbane off of Right Stuf, I payed $23 plus shipping, when the MSRP is $39.99, which is almost half price. Also, I'm not sure where you heard that they need to call your house, they definitely didn't call me and they don't even have my phone number on file. Also, you should be more proud of your pervyness. Pervyness is a man's soul, or so I'm told.

    I just bought Demonbane so i'm just waiting in the mail for that. I saw the anime years ago when it was airing and didn't particularly like it but whateaver the art is good and I like giant robots. I have also gained new appreciation for little girls since then (lol). I've played hardly any VNs but I'm interested in them. I've played Katawa Shoujo act 1 and Brass Restoration. Looking at the Katawa Shoujo official blog thing made me want to play the full version less after reading about all the ads they are putting in the game unless you buy some subscription model thing and stuff. blergh.

    The only ones I've played are the Phoenix Wright games. (Those fall under visual novel, right?) Other than that I haven't played any, unless Monkey Island counts as one too.
