I think saying I love this game is an understatement of itself. Before Manosaba, my favorite game was Library of Ruina, I loved it but love doesn't describe how I feel for this game and how it pulled me in All the characters are beautiful in writing and designs, and you feel connected to them I relate to Nikaido Hiro a lot with believing I was right so many times and doubt people for the simple reason I believed it was the right thing to do. This game is a love letter, and its impossible for me to express how deeply I want to return those feelings until the end of time Thank you to all of Acacia. Thank you to Nana Mikitani, Minami Kita, Toshiyuki Hata, Suwagara Omu, Umeboshimaro, SLAVE.V-V-R, all of the voice actors, and to many more, every names of the people involved I can only read with tears in my eyes in the credits. I truly and will always love you too, 魔法少女ノ魔女裁判.

This is one of the best mystery visual novels ever written. It's also the first visual novel I've fully completed in Japanese, which made it both difficult but incredibly rewarding to slowly work through. However, as soon as I finished the first chapter it grabbed me enough that I finished the rest of the game in around a month, reading as much as I could without losing focus every day. I made heavy use of a dictionary and finished with a massively inflated playtime of around 90 hours between the demo and full game, and yet never got bored. Manosaba is essentially a danganronpa game, replacing the high school students with magical girls. It borrows the main structure from danganronpa, with slightly different flavoring. 13 girls are captured and brought to a prison, and are told that they have the potential to become witches. All of these girls have a unique magical power which does something very specific and allows the writers to build mysteries around them. As the girls' stress increases, they become closer to becoming a witch, a clear metaphor for trauma, and eventually will gain an intent to kill directed at someone. When a girl is killed, a trial is held, in which the protagonist along with the remaining girls have to decide who committed the murder and became a witch, where they are then executed. It's extremely similar to danganronpa, but where it significantly differs is in the quality of its writing and characters. Simply, almost none of the girls feel like "throw away" characters to be killed in the first 1 or 2 murders, and they all have fleshed out personalities, interests, backstories, and trauma. In addition, the murders themselves have really unique, and extremely human motives that push these girls to kill someone else. All of the people in this game have faced really traumatic events, and the ways in which they cope clash with the other girls and push conflict. It ends up leading to extremely powerful moments. My personal favorite character is Tachibana Sherry, a girl who, unlike all of the other characters, is extremely happy to be in this murder mystery situation. She calls herself a "Great Detective" and wants nothing more than to solve every murder. She's absurdly funny but has hidden depths just like every other character that leads to her becoming even more endearing. In addition, the individual murder mysteries themselves are consistently extremely engaging. They use clever tricks and make both effective and fair use of each girls' magic ability. While I was able to logically work out quite a few of them, many more ended up really shocking me with their culprit. Sometimes, I even logically knew the culprit but emotionally didn't want to see them executed, creating a really interesting mixed feeling. Yet, the girls who were executed or killed always felt like they satisfyingly exited the story. The art and character designs themselves are also some of the best in the medium. The character designs are immediately striking, show the characters' personalities, and are extremely enjoyable to just look at. CG art is also stellar, every CG feels like it should be in a museum. Every murder scene and execution is beautifully horrific and the other CGs are just as high quality. On top of that, the music is amazing. It has these both haunting and beautiful vocals as well as a super catchy OP theme, which all uses a made up language that gives it a very unique style. Everyone must play this game once the translation drops later this year.

Tentative Review Well done. I've been curious about Manosaba because it has a huge following in my community, and I can see why people love it. It's essentially Danganronpa with an all-female cast. Every aspect of the game and its overall flow strongly resembles Danganronpa, and the developers have openly stated that it was one of their inspirations. The gameplay and progression are very similar. Just as every character in Danganronpa has a unique talent, every girl in Manosaba has her own magic. You begin by interacting with all the characters, then a murder occurs. After that, you gather evidence and take part in a trial to solve the case. The character designs are all unique and eye-catching, reminding me of Mahou Shoujo Ikusei Keikaku . The voice cast is excellent, and the soundtrack is a pleasure to listen to. So far, I honestly can't point to a single negative aspect of the game. If you've played Danganronpa and enjoyed it, and you don't mind the absence of male characters, minigames, or failure penalties during trials, you'll probably enjoy this game as well. Personally, the all-female cast is a huge plus, well, ahem... except for one character . It's worth every penny, even at full price, and the developers deserve all the support they can get. An official English translation is planned for release later this year, so if you can't read Japanese, you can wait a little longer. Otherwise, do your own research. Just avoid the English patch from the Steam Guides, as it's heavily machine-translated.
