“i don’t think you should trow your wish away,But having a wish is
having hope. If people don’t have hope, then there’s nothing left”
“Even if you don’t make it your goal, you’ll still be closer to it than
before”
Ginka is a interesting one, it manages to combine and amazing OST with
superb writing that always keeps you on the edge of your seat. The
numerous slice-of-life scenes make you laugh your heart out, they are so
cute and innocent.
This Visual Novel knows how to keep you in the dark and it manages to do
it without keeping too much information from you. On VNDB, there are a
couple of reviews hitting on the amount of stuff that’s kept from the
reader keeping it confused. This is the reason i love it so much but i
guess that not all people like it which is fair.
The characters are cute but the development is meh, Ginka and Ryusei
barely change from the start to the end of the story and the other
characters even less.
It feels like most of the middle of the story is just filler to make the
novel longer, i would love if they actually changed.
Another flaw i will point at is the graphics, like Rin looks weird
sometimes, her eyes are a bit too high and stuff.
Also, i think that they could maybe make more out of the characters,
like really, Souji barely appeared and the cat is like pot armour for
Ryusei as it appears just in the right time.
Though, the OST is awesome.
“I am never giving a girl any of my shirts again!”
I will end it at this, i am a beginner at this reviewing this is the
problem, i have attached all my notes that i’ve taken during gameplay.
I am thinking about playing more VN’s, will see.
Bye for today.
Hope you enjoyed my writing :)
GINKA - A Visual Novel
Started: 2023-12-04 now it’s 21:42 but i am playing for about an hour
Finished:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pretty cool, sadly i couldn’t get it to work on wine.
Reading out loud hurt my throat. I really like the voice in the menu.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ohhh, now it makes sense, so the festival happened when he was a kid,
before he met her, and then he met here after going to bring back the
ball the kids lost in her garder!
Make sense, but i dislike authors playing with time.
Feels nice to write here.
Actually, playing this VN feels like watching a movie more than playing.
:) Cute
Like the characters are really cute, i love ’em!
Have a good ammount of laughts, maybe i can somehow learn from them?
Silluettes, things are turning weird.
We where having the other characters introduced.
I was wondering what they are going to do now, as they where wondering,
from the bit of the review i have wached, i remember something about
high school and stuff, so does he take her with him? Can she even go, as
she kinda got a favor by the god to have a body…
…
Will sleep
… Would be cool if i hava a app that actually records every keystroke
and the time, so that i can replay them later…. Cool idea but text
editor comes first.
I am at some inciting incident part but the thing is that i will save,
write in my diary and sleep for today…
Bye, it’s 00:25
me again
the same day but at 1903 The power of love saved him from the curse he
was getting, and Ginka saved both him and Rin.
BDW, his name is written like this Ryusei, not how i was writting it,
sorry, silly me! :P
Mysetrious girls is worried about our MC?
So, Rin got depossesed and the other demon spirits, even the big one
dissapeared, sweet.
“i don’t think you should trow your wish away,But having a wish is
having hope. If people don’t have hope, then there’s nothing left” “Even
if you don’t make it your goal, you’ll still be closer to it than
before”
I kinda like how he’s talking over her here…
Wait, the other girl is also Ginka, wtf?
This guy can somewhat cook, that’s nice, but we got a disaster in the
form of Nomonura-sensei?
Mc get’s along with that other guy? cool, he was underutilized.
Big Ginka dancing like little Ginka, Cute!
He’s like, i have see your panties, let’s make it fair, i will show mine
to you as well….
Waaaaaaaaaiiiiiiit….
IT WAS RYUSEI THAT WAS SPIRITED AWAY?!
WTH?!
That’s a real 180, it seem like logical to do stuff like that, if i
remember, theat movie The Archive did something simmilar but this is
still the 2nd time i see it i think…
Cool.
Rin’s smile looks like she wants to murder you, i get this fealing after
the corruption incident.
Big Ginka Kiss!
“How can this world not be real, this is ridiculous.” - like you could
distinguish 100% in an non lucid dream that you aren’t dreaming, or that
the world isn’t just a simulation.
It is a hard thing to accept, like, i have been trough a similar thing
not that long ago, but it was about free will and stuff. It gets to you
very deeply, it is hurtful, i guess the thing that i get over things
fast prevented me from going into some depression or something the thing
is that is hurts so much when you realize this.
But i am the type of person that wants to know the truth even if it
hurts…
Am i a masochist? Idk and i don’t care.
Gonna go for today, it’s like 2023, the hour.
I think i am close to the end of it? not sure, anyways Bye~

Wait wait wait, it was Ryusei that died? Not Ginka? And she kinda
offered her life to the god so that he is kept alive.
Sooooo, he died from that heart problem. Kinda makes sense when you
think about it.
Why is Souji so proud when he says he has no xp with love?
Ginka is scared of ghosts….
The Ginka’s are fighting for Ryusei.
Ryusei’s betrayel, him living Ginka happens again with the little one…
I kinda hate the MC for hiding so much stuff and not talking about it
with Ginka, it happens all the time in anime, Gimai Seikatsu is probably
the best at this.
I do love the OST.
There is someone that’s sabotaging the festival by taking out Souji?
How bad would it be if you chose i want to remain at the end?
I am really unwilling to replay vn’s, it feels like i am betraying the
characters or something…
Uhhhh? did it end? WTF?
Welll, i liked it, but that was a weird ending, i sould research on it…
Looked a bit on the net and couldn’t find anything really usefull,
trying to play from the last choise, chosing i want to remain. You can
confess to her, but it isn’t taken too seriously i see.
Wait, don’t tell me lil’ Ginka is the real one!
Wait, it was sensei that exgtinguished the fire?
WTF, he died and now got back to the real world?
Sensei is a good for nothing, drunk woman now. She blaimes herself for
Ryusei’s death. Rin is taking care of her.
In the other world, Sensei and Big Ginka battle Sensei was cursed.
Sensei is the Antagonist? WTF Game? The cat helps him get back to the
other world….
Gonta is again the real hero? WTF?
Me from 2023-12-10 here
Seems like he went back the exact day he woke from a dream, he was in
middle school still and then now is in first year of highschool,
studying alone, online using a tablet at the island’s school.
Seems like Rin wants to revive the festival and they are weirded out
that he knows so much. Sensei seems to feel guilty.
And Ginka hasn’t appeared still,
The little Ginka was the love big Ginka gave in exchange of mentaining
Ryusei’s life and the big Ginka remaind without the love for him?
Seems like God died to save Ryusei.
Oh, seems like he kinda just registred in high school not did the year
again
And Sensei isn’t a teacher again.
Oh, Big Ginka Came, i would be supper surprised if lil’ Ginka appears
thought.
Waait Waaaaaaaaaait, Ryiusei has became GOD!?
Ok, i will leave it at that for today, ninin. Today was short. Haven’t
played for some days.
The OST is awesome!
2023-12-15
I want to finish it today, got sidetracked but here i am playing it
So, Ginka is in love with him? Didn’t her love get taken away or
something, she fell again?
Also, she knows nothing about modern tech. She sould be a second-year jk
but is with him in first-year as she need to be near Ryuusei.
Oh, they do lessons with a tablet, online, probably mentioned this
already The OST is very nice :)
“I am never giving a girl any of my shirts again!” Seems like this Ginka
is also super in love with the stupid shirt he gave her.
Ginka is gelous? The guy was talking about how sad he feels that Ginka
doesn’t have the memories of lil Ginka, he thinks that Ginka has no
fealing for him
But i dissagree with that, i think that it’s forshadowd that she fell in
love again with him.
Also, the give your love for him instead of your life is very
convinient…
It’s so cute when they argue… Ginka is a cutie.
The curse came fast, strangled in your sleep, not a fun way to die.
Ginka is also jelous of Himawari ?
“…When someone can’t protect what is dear to them, they blame
themselves.”
Ryuusei bought a penguin-san mug for her, Ginka loves it more than lil
Ginka did! Cute~
Ginka really loves her curry, wasn’t it to spicy or is she an masochist?
The assassin is Ginka’s mother, and she was kept in an dungeon? WTH?
So like, lil Ginka was in that blue katashiro that he had, and when
Ginka’s mom wanted to kill him, she escaped and saved him.
It seems that the duty-bearer is a oerson that purifies the curse and
that the duty-bearer dies as it absorbed it.
So, mom did it for Ginka.
How weird would it feel to see and interact with your younger self?
Oh, she’s in spirit form again and doese’t remember the time she had in
the dream world.
Ginka is on the brink of death, i think she might be saved if the Ginkas
merge.
Weird having an imaginary friend
Operation Save Himeshima, SSSTAERTO!
Oh, Gonta! The cat is some mystical being, use him! That’t definietly
some foreshadowing.
also, ghost lil Ginka.
Big Ginka is definitely jealous.
Big Ginka POV? Cool
So she can’t love? Ahh, ok.
So she is jealous that lil Ginka can love?
She kinda has those feelings? O.K.
RIP lil Ginka F in chat
Souji is like so nice after you get along with him.
“The princess couldn’t bear to see you bound to her. That’s why she…
destroyed her other self.”
So he enters god’s corpse and goes back in time i think to a black
haired girl…guess it’s the first duty-bearer
Sorry god, you tried to do good.
Seeing all of God’s memories hurts
Also Ginka killed lil Ginka and then you pass trough a ton of dreams?
He did it with…Ginka in a dream but then she killed him because he
proffesed his love to her.
So, she destroyed lil Ginka because she was scared to get her fealings
back
She was starting to fall in love again
SO, me here after finishing the game
Because i’ve chose not to grant god’s wish to dissapear, Ryusei sees the
lost butterfly, the wish of the first duty-bearer Hana
So, Hana convinces god to return to his world and he takes the curse
turned into butterflies and goes with them, He also grants both Ginka
and Ryusei’s wish in the least destructive way bit Ginka still has
memories of those times that at this point “Never Happened”.
And the ending song is just so amazing~
This kinda fits in with my theory that it doesen’t matter if the ending
is happy, if the struggle was immense it’t also memorable if not even
more that just a drama.
