Ayakashi Gohan - Stream 7 (Date☆Night: 10/24/17)
11My 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, we return to the school festival, but this time we're doing a play! It's time to explore a lighter ayakashi story, focusing more on the human relationship between Rin and Ibuki, and the ways that we handle loss and isolation!
