About
ChuSingura46+1 is an award-winning visual novel that puts you in the shoes of a high schooler who gets transported back in time into the body of a Samurai. However, in this timeline, all the Samurai are inexplicably female. You can get to know the “intimate” side of the characters from the classic Japanese tale of the 47 Ronin while playing a visual novel ー all without any of the dangly or rough bits of the original!
This visual novel has been adapted from a sound novel based on the actual historical facts of the Ako incident. In adapting the story to visual novel format, most of the main characters of the 47 Ronin have been turned into females, and parts of the core story have been polished into a lighter literary style that also incorporates fantasy elements.
The story goes something like this…
On the 14th day of the third month of Genroku 14 (1701 CE), an incident occurred involving the ruler of the Ako Domain, Lord Asano Takumi No Mikami shedding the blood of Kira Kousuke No Suke in the Corridor of the Pines in Edo Palace.
This incident that would later become known in Japan as the famous Ako incident.
Upon hearing of this incident on the same day, the fifth shogun of the Tokugawa dynasty, Tokugawa Tsunayoshi, became enraged.
It was ruled that that very same day, Lord Asano should be sentenced to seppuku, after which his lands were to be scattered and his house broken up. Meanwhile, Kira Kousuke No Suke received no no rebuke whatsoever, going against the tradition set by the first Shogun of punishing both parties in a fight.
Unable to comprehend this harsh and shocking punishment, the loyal Samurai retainers of Ako start to move to restore honour to their master by commencing a vendetta against Lord Kira.
Meanwhile, Fukami Suguha is transported from present day Japan to the Edo-period Ako domain, where he gets to know the Ako Ronin.
What will become of Suguha as he throws himself to the mercy of the cogs of history, and will he ever be able to return to his own time?

ChuSingura46+1 S reviews and comments

Most of what I have positive to say about the Game has already been mentioned in other Reviews, but I make a definitive Recommendation directly. Therefore, I try to be as brief as possible: If you put you off the fact that this Is a Kind of Kinetic Novel (NOT decisions, but to read a Book in the VN Style), it should not be deterred from this as long as he likes VNs or well-written Books & Stories. Leave.
While the Story contains some loose comedy elements, this is certainly not the Main Focus here and any Clichés in the Comedy Scenes I did not find disturbing but appropriate-the Majority of the Story takes place in the Time of a Variant of ancient Japan. Nor should one assume that there Is fan service with weak Story or Trivialization of everything, since you have largely exchanged the Ako Ronin for Women. (The next Sentences will be somewhat repetitive.) Of course, it is fan service to portray the Ako Ronin etc. as women, but unlike you might guess this puts more often than not in the Background and everything gets very serious and exciting again and again. So Often the Situation is eased up by this "Change" and of course there are some Clichéd scenes that you can see from Anime-nevertheless: The Story is 100% in the Foreground and is reproduced in detail and in class, the Clichés are really only In between, the whole Thing does not be demolition-all Character are great in their Own Way and prove Development and (emotional) depth over the Course of the Story.
I admit that I was also a bit sceptical at first-since the entire first Chapter (loosely ~ 10 Hours) is free, but everyone can also get a Picture for themselves. At First, the Story seems like nothing special and not really serious-but if you give the whole thing some Time, you will soon discover a Story that won't let you go so easily. The Protagonist also undergoes a steady character development across all chapters-his Views and Goals change as well as his Skills and mental Constitution. Fantasy elements paired with Historical Facts of The Genroku Era, as well as time travel elements, adequate Action/combat scenes, Drama and quite some Mystery promise to entertain. In addition, the whole thing only gradually unfolds-can one change the Story? Why could time travel through Time? Why the Prota and for what? Can I return-if so how and is that really permanent ... Do I want that in the End?
It is hard not to write anything without Spoilers, but it should be said that the full Story is told in 5 Chapters and everything forms a Great Whole. And if you think it could be ready, then it's just getting started. Artstyle, Music, Japanese Synchro, as Well as Storytelling and Character are all written in a Great way-give the whole thing a chance And maybe this will be one of your Darlings of the Genre;)
P.S: The Music is not really balanced by the Volume-it also hears it loud enough when you put it at 10%, otherwise it may drown out the Dialogue in the wrong Moments.
