Ayakashi Gohan - Stream 14 (Date☆Night: 12/12/17)
8My friend DeviousVacuum and I, in a quest to discover more about visual novels, have put together a stream called Date☆Night, where we're playing through a bunch of visual novels that I haven't had the chance to really sink my teeth into, and that DVac has never seen. We stream on Tuesdays at 9PM Eastern on https://www.twitch.tv/ChorpSaway, so feel free to stop in if you're free!
Our current game is Ayakashi Gohan, a heartwarming little tale about family and the connection between human and ayakashi (spirits). We follow Akane Rin, a young girl living in a small town where humans and ayakashi live together. As she lives her normal life, going to school and working at a cafe, she may find romance with the people of this peculiar town...
Both DVac and I are going into this blind! The fan translation was released earlier this year so we haven't had a lot of time to look at it beforehand, but we're optimistic about it!
Today, the game gets back on a better track for a clumsy yet satisfying ending! In our quest to win this dumb nerd's love, we learn about Yomi's past and how he came to be so distrustful of humans. Meanwhile, more young women are being spirited away by the tengu. Can Rin bring these two plots together and confess her love to Yomi? Will Yomi's secret weapon be enough to fight against Guren? It's all this and more in the finale of Yomi's route! Stay tuned to the end for our continued plans with Ayakashi Gohan!
