Honestly the emotional scenes in this game are insane. I know a lot of people say this VN is too weird or quirky, but out of any media I’ve seen, nothing has captured panic attacks and growing up emotionally sensitive with parents who don’t care about your mental health as accurately as this. I connect with Jayce so much. Growing up I had pannic attacks super often and would cry almost daily even at the age of 13. My dad, instead of comforting me, would yell and look down on me. He was always disappointed constantly comparing me to my brother who was never as emotional as I was.
Even though this VN is full of 2000s weeb internet humor it genuinely made me cry. Maybe that seems pathetic to some people but honestly… I don’t care. Also Tom’s relationship with Jayce is really beautiful. At first I liked Maccon more because… well he had “bigger” assets, but the way you wrote Tom’s character was absolutely top-notch.
Your artstyle is so freaking good I love it. I'm also lowkey so excited to start reading this… but that also means the other 22 VNs I’m halfway through are about to be postponed 💀 I really need to start prioritizing lmao
I have replayed this amazing game multiple times and I still have strong memories from years ago when I first played it. Across every playthrough the scene that has always affected me the most is the Nefuru and Amicus bed scene basically the first sex scene. Years later I have realized why it still hits me so hard every time I reread this VN. We are given explanations that make logical sense. Amicus did not sleep with Nefuru because he wanted to betray Marco but because he wanted to secure a political deal. It is also emphasized that in this culture sex is treated as something far less romantic and more primal. Amicus did feel sexual attraction but not in a way that was meant to be cheating. It is also pointed out that Marco and Amicus were not officially together so expecting celibacy would be unfair. However the story explains that one of the main reasons it hurts Marco so deeply is that Amicus never consulted him. Amicus makes decisions that affect Marco without ever asking for his input. He acts in ways that suggest he sees Marco as lesser or at least not as an equal partner. I think the real reason the scene hurts so much though is because there is no foundation of trust between Marco and Amicus. From the start Marco is kidnapped and brought to Adastra against his will which makes it hard to trust Amicus at all. Amicus repeatedly makes mistakes and contradicts himself. He claims he found no enjoyment in the encounter yet earlier scenes like the bathroom scene and his comments about having needs suggest he is not being fully honest. Because of this it becomes difficult to believe anything he says or claims to feel. Without trust how is Marco supposed to believe that Amicus truly loves him, or that sex with Nefuru was purely transactional? Why should we as the reader trust that what their saying is genuine rather than some convenient justification for sleeping with someone else? This is not meant as a jab to the authors or the VN itself. It is simply a reflection on why the moment is so painful. Marco was finally beginning to trust Amicus and they were on the verge of a confession. That small amount of trust was shattered. I still believe that everything works out well in the end and I do not blame Marco’s intense reaction at all. It is hard to believe someone when you never truly had trust in them to begin with. Still love this vn and hope that khemia lives up to it
Wow this VN genuinely surprised me in the best way. From the moment I started it I could tell it was going to be something special. Even though it’s short I got really attached to the story and characters which I honestly didn’t expect. You completely nailed the late 1800s to early 1900s Southern outlaw aesthetic. The music, backgrounds, character sprites, and dialogue all work so well together and make the world feel real and immersive. I especially loved how the fight scenes were shown like comic panels. That was such a cool and unique choice and I’ve never seen another VN do that before. What really stood out to me was how you handled heavy topics like racism, suicide, abandonment, and trauma. None of it felt rushed or forced just to create tension. It felt real and it made me connect to the characters on a much deeper level than I thought I would. The way racism was portrayed in particular hit hard and felt honest. Javi is a great main character who feels easy to connect with without being a blank slate and Nate is such an interesting contrast to him being an old outlaw compared to Javi who is a young guy trying to chase freedom. Their dynamic works incredibly well and it made me fully invested in their relationship and where the story was going. I did find the time skips a little confusing at first but after rereading they actually added a lot of depth to the story. My favorite scene was the flashback after Javi sees Nate again when it cuts to Javi’s torture. Hearing Javi scream for Nate even though he never shows up was heartbreaking. Learning that Nate actually returned and was watching the whole time but was too scared to step in made the scene even more tragic and painful. The emotional moments hit really hard and the payoff at the end was beautiful and genuinely moving. For such a short VN I loved every second of it. I’m really excited to see anything you make in the future. I have also already recommended this to all my friends because I would hate to see your passion and work go unnoticed.
honestly the more I read into this burrows as a whole seems less romance and more saving the charters. I mean their are horny stuff throughout but not a focus on romance which I don't think is a bad thing. It's a interesting change of pace compared to most vn's and I'm curious to see how it turns out.
now I'm curious is ken even like a romance option or is his rout just a different story rout. No hate its just after reading this rout for a bit I don't really see ken and grey being romantic at all... I see them more as friends which kinda sucks because I love kens character and think he is so damn handsome.
I have been contemplating reading this vn and now after looking at some reviews I'm defiantly interested. I'm Just curious Idk if I'm stupid and missed a spot where it was mentioned but is this vn have NFSW scenes. I don't mind if it does or not I'm still gonna read it
I'm a little confused it says "Adult content patch is hosted on our Patreon, available for free." does that mean you don't need a patreon subscription to download or is it you do its just free once you download the patreon sub. I tried to click on the link to download the nsfw version and its telling me to unlock I need to subscribe to you Patreon which is confusing because I thought it was free. I might just be dumb idk😭
Does Lyall only bottom in this vn. If he does will he have a scene in the future where he tops. If not I'm not complaining because Lyall's ass is prob top 3 of any vn I have played.
Also, we have no idea if that’s the last we’ll see of Alvy. Scribbles’ route isn’t even finished yet, so we don’t know if MOF is going to bring him back or not.
I hope you’re not getting exhausted from reading all the negative comments about Alvy. I was really bummed to see his story end that way, but I also understood. I guess I was not really that affected because I knew it was never truly Alvy’s route; it was Scribbles’. Idk, the last time I was into a book series, the author stopped updating it because everyone was so angry that he killed off a character. I would hate to see that happend to this book
Honestly, if neither of them were datable, that would actually be fun. Not gonna lie, I hate when games make two datable characters date each other in different routes. Like, if you first romance Aiden in his route and then play Dillian’s, it kind of feels like cheating to watch Aiden fall in love with Tate. Or if you do Dillian’s route first and then Aiden’s, it feels like homewrecking because in another universe, he’s already in love with Tate.
Hey, I hope this question doesn’t come across the wrong way, but I wanted to ask if this book includes or in any way fetishizes incest? I have some personal trauma related to that topic, and while I understand that’s not your responsibility, I’d really appreciate a warning before I continue reading. There’s a scene between Therium and the cloaked demon on Alvy’s route where the demon says, “Does he also let his father deflower him in this one?” and Therium replies, “Not here, he wants to be faithful for once.” That exchange made me a bit uneasy. It almost sounded like it might be implying something like a father taking their son's virginity. Also, the line “Not here, he wants to be faithful for once,” gives the impression that the son had a choice and said yes. Please don’t take offense if I’ve misunderstood the conversation or phrased this poorly. I struggle a lot in social interactions, and I really don’t mean any disrespect. I’m not trying to shame/judge the story or you as the author. I just wanted to ask for clarification or a potential content warning before I keep on reading. For what it’s worth, I genuinely love this story so far. The characters have so much personality, and the world feels both grand but digestible. That one moment just caught me off guard, and it’s been difficult for me to move past it without understanding the intent behind it.
I think this might be my fav vn ever your so talented and the humor is peak. Just finished the latest built of chpt 4 and now reading 'Repeat' which I'm on day 15 of sissly's rout and oml its also so good. I can't wait to see the future of these two vn's and please I know sometimes it can get annoying to hear so many people say "don't burn youself out" but its true. Your super talented and for your fans like me I really don't care if the updates take a year to come out as long as your happy and the story is good we will be satisfied
Honestly, I just downloaded this game, so I have no idea what I'm getting into beyond the description, but I can already say that the characters look amazing. You're a very talented artist. Also, big question: is the Itch.io shadow ban on NSFW content going to affect the upload schedule?
(MAJOR SPOILERS I MEAN IT FULLY) So is their like mulitple endings to this game? Does excepting becoming the grand duke Erenos slave lead to a bad ending?I really don't want to kill 7/10 of the population and I really don't want to leave posidong side (MY HUSBAND) but it also says if I become his slave their may be a chance I can stop Grand duke. What should I do I really don't want to be his slave
I hope they reveal that Lars was initially sent to watch over Walter, following orders from Walter’s father, but over time, he genuinely fell in love. This would add so much depth to his character, turning what seemed like a forced relationship into something meaningful and heartfelt.
Imagine Lars struggling with his emotions—at first, he sees his mission as just another task, but as he spends more time with Walter, he starts to care for him in ways he never expected. He might wrestle with guilt, wondering if his feelings are real or if he’s just convincing himself they are. Eventually, he’d have to make a choice: does he stay loyal to the mission, or does he follow his heart?
This kind of development would not only make his love for Walter feel more genuine, but it would also create a powerful emotional conflict. If Walter ever found out the truth, it could lead to a moment of heartbreak—questioning whether Lars’ love was real or just part of the plan. But if done right, it could make their bond even stronger, proving that love can emerge even from the most unexpected circumstances. (If Walter won’t stop being so naive.)
My Issues with After Class VN and Lars’ Lore (SPOILER WARNING)
I recently played through After Class VN, and while I really enjoyed it, I have some problems with the story—particularly regarding its lore. The story is engaging, the characters (especially Lars) are hot asf, and overall, it’s a well-made visual novel. However, there’s one specific lore detail that changes how I see Lars, and not in a good way.
Throughout the game, I often wondered how Walter and Lars became so close so quickly. It felt both unnatural and natural at the same time. Andy’s writing is so effective that, despite only knowing Lars for about a week in the story, I still fell for him. When I first learned that Lars had ties to Walter’s past, I was a little suspicious, but I didn’t think too much of it. By Day 11 in Lars’ good route, the chemistry between them was undeniable—it was intense for just an 11-day connection, but love can develop at different paces, so I went along with it.
Then I played Lars Episode 1 and 2, and my feelings took a turn. I wasn’t just confused—I was frustrated. Here’s why:
A small reason is we learn that Lars used to be close with him. Seeing how deep that connection went made me wonder—did those feelings just fade over time, or is there still something there? Maybe I’m just jealous, but it left me curious.
But my biggest issue is what we learn about Walter’s father. Apparently, he was the one who instructed Lars to go undercover—to disappear, act homeless, and get as close to Walter as possible. He even encouraged Lars to find a way to live in Walter’s house. With that in mind, I can’t help but question everything about Lars’ relationship with Walter.
Is their connection genuine, or is it all just an act orchestrated by Walter’s dad? Is anything Lars has done—like kissing Walter as early as Day 6—real, or was it all forced? Does Lars actually like Walter at all?
After Class fucking loves foreshadowing, so hear me out. One moment that stood out to me was in Day 10 when Walter wonders if Lars might not actually like him—that maybe he’s just pretending so he can have a place to stay. While we know Lars doesn’t need a home, this line feels like foreshadowing. It raises the unsettling question: is Lars only acting like he loves Walter because his father told him to?
