Deus Machina DemonbaneĪnother title we’ve previously covered in The History of Lewd, Nitroplus’ Deus Machina Demonbane is, for my money, one of the best horror visual novels I’ve ever read. Is everything as it seems? Of course it isn’t - and as you might expect from a work by Gen “The Butcher” Urobuchi, there are no happy endings here. Instead, he perceives everything as a horrifying place filled with fleshy walls, terrible smells and disgusting monsters.īut in the midst of the all the madness is Saya, a young girl who proves to be Fuminori’s salvation - or so he believes, anyway. The procedure allowed him to live his life normally - normally, that is, aside from the fact that he is completely incapable of perceiving the real world as it actually is. In Saya no Uta, we follow the story of a young man named Fuminori, who has been suffering with a neurological disorder ever since an experimental procedure saved him from being brain-dead after a car accident. It’s an honest to goodness classic of both the genre and the whole medium, and a perfect demonstration of how visual novels can provide a markedly distinct experience from both video games and conventional literature.
We’ve already covered this previously in The History of Lewd, but Saya no Uta (aka The Song of Saya) is one of the best horror visual novels ever created.
