Biniku no Kaori
Instead of doing something responsible and constructive yesterday like going to Sunshine Creation 39 or vacuuming the tatami or doing my laundry, I spent the day engrossed in the first eroge I’ve played (while not on the company clock) since Bullet Butlers. It was none other than Elf’s recently released Biniku no Kaori, which upon starting I soon discovered to be very much the spiritual successor to Silkys’ Jokei Kazoku ~Inbou~ – just what I had been hoping for, and thus far it’s met those expectations admirably. Perhaps too admirably, in fact; the game builds dramatic tension to a level of intensity that after eight hours or so I ultimately couldn’t take, and had to bust out a walkthrough to make sure I wasn’t going to accidentally stumble into the barrel of a shotgun or worse, be fired. I’ll be writing more about this when I finish the game – hopefully soon.

DLsite Recommendations (how to buy)




ソドムの島~Night of Blind~ – Sodom no Shima ~Night of Blind
Beautifully illustrated, intense, dark eroge from M no Violet (Mink). Relatively short for a full price eroge but packs a punch; the ero scenes are masterfully directed with multiple CG and cut-ins per scene. Contains one of the most dramatic and erotic futanari scenes in any game I’ve played. Definitely worth the price for this download edition if you favor the genre.

High quality 3D animated short story of a man who meets a demon girl in a dream. Not loli despite the image in the description; might be worth checking out if you like what you see in the demo.

Two original CG collections from eroge artist and freelance illustrator Norihe Ita. I first came across his site several years ago when he was image blogging regularly. Afterwards I was able to meet him in person when he was manning a company booth at Comiket, and I was left with the impression that he was a great guy and a great artist too. Definitely worth checking out his stuff if you get the chance.
$1,500 for a prepainted kit! While that is a lot of money, that figure is just oozing with sex appeal. If only I had that kind of expendable income…
damn…Starless and Biniku look great…
WHF Manyuu Chibusa up for sale at the Kobe and Tokyo iterations of the event.
All the more reason to go!

I’m with you, I wish I had that kind of expendable income to invest in a quality paint job like that… though I’d rather have the time to do it myself than the money to buy it, to be honest.

Damn straight! I’d recommend Biniku to anyone looking for a quality eroge soap opera (though that comparison may not be a particularly ringing endorsement).

You’re a bit late to the party there, but I’m with you. :3
Hah, I guess I should actually read the Mainichi Junk’s instead of just relying on the RSS feed headlines ^^;
You should see some auctions by a guy/group named Artzone. His 1/3rd bome Kanu went for $3412 american and his Asuka went for 2899. It’s insane- but the guy/group is freaking incredible.

Yeah, I just saw the Artzone Asuka auction earlier today and was going to mention it in tonight’s update. Good stuff. :3
