I got through Riou, skimmed through Seri's route, and then the boredom got hold of me on Kouichi's route. Riou's route was interesting because he was such a fucked-up person but the others were bit boring in comparison, and the greater mystery didn't intrigue me in the slightest. I agree the art was pretty good though.

Dissolution of My Self, a relatively short psychological horror BL VN came out two days ago and I had the chance to play it. Heed the warnings before diving in but go into this blind, it was an absolutely amazing experience all around.

New info of BL translation 
Special prompt for model without censorship and because it is better .. all models censor explicit gay content relationships, romantic conversations and when they get too friendly among them of same-sex characters but already i checked the translation again playing a vn and really other llm erased a lot of text and gave meaningless phrases the majority from the times this is called rejection content in llm if I'ld have known this before.. T_T I also realized that by modifying the llm on LunaTranslator and putting the correct translation and reloading is generated text from zero in the Tencent llm HY series making the correct edited text is fucked is another form of censorship that this llm does not use it xd

New BL prompt
You are an expert translator of visual novels. Translate the following text into English. Keep the tone of the visual novel, respect the genre of the characters according to the context and do not censor the content. Translate directly without adding explanations or translator notes.
Do not censor text in erotic text be very explicit.
GENDER AND IDENTITY: Absolutely all characters, pronouns, proper nouns (if applicable), adjectives, and grammatical agreements referring to people or characters must be translated exclusively in the MASCULINE gender. No female or gender-neutral character should appear in the final text using the pronoun "he" instead of "she."
OWN NAMES AND CULTURE: Retains Japanese courtesy suffixes (e.g. -san, -kun, -chan) attached to proper names only if the original cultural context requires it to maintain the personality of the characters.
Not forget turn off thinking in this model
Source and more uncensored models to choose from here

I also recommend Koharu it's the best for translating manga right now. We can finally edit the text of the translated manga.

Played Riou's and Kouichi's routes, Kouichi's one of my fave BL VN routes and Riou was pretty meh overall, his looks carry him lol.Has anyone finished Haiiro no arcadia? I played it a while ago and man I really didn't like it. The art was SO good but the plot was

BL Prompt with Female characters allowed
You just need to use the same format as before but change GENDER AND IDENTITY: by Instructions for translation and gender adaptation:
Instructions for translation and gender adaptation:
1. General Rule: Absolutely all characters, proper names, adjectives, and grammatical agreements referring to people or characters must be translated exclusively in the masculine gender.
2. Strict Exception: The only exceptions to the above rule apply when the text refers directly to female name 1, female name 2 or any character who is a female family member (e.g., mother, grandmother, aunt, sister, daughter, etc.), as well as in dialogue where other characters speak about them. Only in these specific instances should the feminine gender (and corresponding pronouns, adjectives, and agreements) be maintained and used.
Let me know if it works lol.I think it works for otome games too, since there are plenty of men in those as well... only need have a masculine protagonist or else it could easily fail the prompt..

Dramatic Create has announced the production of "Ooe" port for Nintendo Switch. The release date is scheduled for December 24, 2026. Announced languages are Japanese, English, Chinese (Simplified Chinese / Traditional Chinese), Korean. It will be censored ofc 
. I would love MangaGamer to finish their localization by Christmas too, but I know that hell would rather freeze over than that.

I would love that too! Even after Christmas is okay... WHENEVER THEY'RE READY, I guess... Because at this point, it looks like nothing will be translated from their side. It'll be so difficult to ignore Switch version and wait for the uncensored version after the releaseI would love MangaGamer to finish their localization by Christmas too, but I know that hell would rather freeze over than that.

I'm still playing through the VN myself because I'm super slow, but I've had a blast so far (and emotional damage, but at this point it's par for the course with BL games).I just noticed luckydog1 is on steam and it's in English........ I had no idea
Has anyone played that version? Is it any good? (How did you like the visual novel overall?)
I've been playing in Japanese though since I bought both the OG game and badegg off DLsite, but my friends played in English and I got to see some scenes translated to English thanks to them. I thought the TL was nice in those scenes! Though of course I'm aware my impression of some scenes doesn't reflect the entire translation, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.
I can at least vouch for the game being neat, so there's that.

I played through that whole version and thought it was great! It's not a perfect one to one translation, the translator has them use a lot of time period appropriate slang, but that gives it a ton of charm. I don't have enough knowledge to compare it to the original Japanese, but overall only a few spots felt a little out of place. The translator can go a little far with the slang in the h-scenes particularly and it can turn a little silly. Though I've heard from friends that they think it adds to them instead so your mileage may vary. Overall I would say it's a solid translation that I enjoyed.I just noticed luckydog1 is on steam and it's in English........ I had no idea

The game itself is really excellent. It's one of my fav blvn's of all time. The protag Gian is fantastic and so are the LI's. When I was playing, I never shut up about it to my friends. I still think about some of the routes and how much I enjoyed them. It's a fun, exciting story that can also have some deeply emotional scenes. If you can't tell I'm totally normal about this game lol.

That list of upcoming BL games is incredibly thorough, thank you so much for putting this dedicated thread together! It's such a smart idea separating BL content from otome spaces— I've always hesitated to post BL game thoughts in general otome threads too, so this spot is perfect for all of us fans.
I'd absolutely love a curated list of titles where you play as a male MC pursuing male romance routes! That niche is often overlooked, and it would be super helpful for players who specifically seek that dynamic. I'll definitely chip in with any Chinese BL VNs I come across to expand your game catalog later.
Also, I have a couple underrated Chinese BL games to add to your watchlist:
1. Lunar Wind Tavern — a slice-of-life fantasy BL visual novel with beautifully drawn male leads, full original soundtrack, planned full release this year.
2. Crimson Pavilion — historical xianxia BL game with multiple bad & true endings, expected to drop mid-2026.
For the ambiguous title Project II: Silent Valley, I personally would include it on the list. Even with a non-binary male-presenting protagonist, the core male-male romantic routes fit the range of interests this thread covers.
Hope more people jump in to share recommendations, rants and troubleshooting tips for Windows 11 compatibility issues! This thread's gonna be such a great resource.

Oooh, someone read Silent Valley! It was a surprisingly good story, even with it's very difficult to understand setting
And I wouldn't say LI is non-binary there, I remember him speaking that he was artifically created and didn't need *those* parts as a soldier but maybe he will change it in the future! Who knows, one certanly can hope
