About Yousei
A murder mystery visual novel by sakevisual.
For the last few years Kangai has been a wanderer, but his return to his hometown has triggered a series of deaths linked to his past.

[b]Yousei[/b] - third and last game from [b]SakeVisual[/b] showing the story of Kangai and the „psychic detective gang” solving various mysteries. This time around they go undercover as students in a University to investigate protagonist’s history, but due to other events the initial plan gets derailed. Part 3 showcases the biggest group of characters from all the 3 games, which makes sense considering in first events took place in coffee house, in second a mansion, and here we’re dealing with University and it’s campus. And speaking of characters, they definitely received a visual glow-up in Yousei. There are also interesting elements to use, which you might have seen in others Visual Novels – mobile phone, notes. Alongside all of that the length of the game also increased again. Part 2 (Kansei) was longer than part 1 (Jisei), and Yousei also gives more reading material. Following with that we get to learn more about characters themselves. All in all Yousei, just like it’s prequels is worth a play. [b]Li Mei best girl! Give us part 4 SakeVisual![/b] Played the game on YouTube very long time ago and had a great time. You can watch the entire thing from my [url=https://www.youtub…2 found this helpful
This is a solid continuation of the series, which I really hope will continue.1 found this helpful
I tried forcing my way through this, because the art's alright and the voice acting is good. Unfortunately the writing isn't the best, and I found myself rolling my eyes when certain characters showed up to babble on about things I'd discern to be unimportant for the greater narrative. And then I got distracted thinking about The Expanse.
The series continues to get better with each instalment. Yousei has by far the best mystery writing, best character writing and best pacing of the three and by now the characters are really starting to grow on me. If there are still two more games planned for release, I'm looking forward to the next.

Builds on the story of the two previous games wonderfully. Layered mystery that's easy to navigate. Well-written characters and very plot-focused. Art is nice.
