There will be.
Minor spoilers:
+ Show Spoiler +The MuvLuv Trilogy heavily plays off a genre swap. MLE is your typical romcom stuff, and then the next game you move to Muv Luv Unlimited... Where the main character wakes up one day in an alternate world, with mecha/war against aliens. Then you get to MuvLuv Alternative, the 3rd and by far longest game in the trilogy, and things start getting really, really good. I remember people used to say that the main character "goes from being the worst of /a/ to the best of /m/" by the end of Alternative.

there are 2 halfs to the first game, second half is mecha
on a side note i've been putting off the last few hours of ML:A for a couple months now x:
sumika just doesn't do it for me at all
i'd also like to point out that takeru is at least better than school day's MC

So what are some good VN to start off with, I tried FSN and it was pretty good so far. Looking for all sorts of genres I suppose.
Some stuff that hasn't been mentioned yet:
Chaos;Head
Steins;Gate
Hanachirasu
Kara no Shoujo
Saya no Uta
Sengoku Rance
Rance 02
ef
Grisasia
Fair warning: I played Planetarium a couple years back. The translation was a bitch to get running on modern systems. There's supposed to be a remake out "soon" though.

Sharin no Kuni is good too.
Semi-related, stay far away from G-Sen Destiny: Hangyaku no Maou, because despite its popularity, its actually a steaming pile of shit.
|
So I started the FSN VN and Christ I forgot just how much of an idiot Shirou is. I was hoping it was the anime that was making him look bad.

They should rename SAO to Sawashiro Art Online.

Do you know why there are no translations for Dies Irae or Muramasa or Kajiri Kamui or even something by tanaka romeo...

Plenty of stuff by Tanaka Romeo has translations. Muramasa, well, keep poking uta to finish Zaregoto before 2030 and maybe he'll pick it up next.

New girl is oke, the rest don't enter the world right?
The stats conversion is also an easy way to powerlevel him, which eliminates all the fun of grinding + lvling... I guess they want to go straight to the point.
Kirito is like the main char in Mahouka. Both ridiculously OP.
Mahouka : + Show Spoiler +Is it me or that GENERATOR thing was the most anticlimatic thing to happen in that anime? I was expecting things to get serious (over a school competition lawl), and bam, the super badass killer that was supposed to kill a hundred people with bare hands gets owned like a teddy bear. So anticlimatic.
Why do I keep tormenting myself with that anime -_-

haha oh man these Seki Kun chapters are pgud

Does that even have English?
Also tbh not worth effort translating Light's chuu2 stuff. If people are going to bother with anything do like Soranica.

I foolishly fell behind on Zankyou no Terror + Show Spoiler + but caught back up. It picks up in the second and third episodes quite a bit.

How do you define works as chuuni? I was talking with someone that knows japanese and he defined it as "stories that introduce unrealistic elements and have it as a focus" and that there was a scale of how chuuni a story is (with something like Fate/stay night being super chuuni while something like Evangelion is less chuuni). He basically said that all sci-fi, magical(excluding magical realism), fantasy, most shounen stories, supernatural, horror, and etc are all chuuni to an extent while a work like tatami galaxy and the currently airring zankyou no terror are both not chuu2. So wouldn't that mean a lot of animes/LNs/VN/Mangas are chuuni?
Cause it sounds like you really hate chuu2 whenever you talk about it.
he also mentioned that any dream of grandeur is really chuu2 as well and that any writer that can write chuu2 works also have chuu2

There aren't any actual numbers in GGO.
+ Show Spoiler +fair enough. I never read LN to know but figured that maybe we can gauge just how strong he is from them though his reflexes are second to none it seems (and as is normal lol).
