Maybe I wasn't paying enough attention during my taxonomy classes, but due to the lack of other specific descriptors for a naturally female character sporting only a dick, I think "futa" is most useful as an umbrella term.
- "Dickgirl" or "shemale" both have a history of referring to transgender characters, so they're out on the grounds of being vague/inaccurate.
- The essentially equivalent "hermaphrodite" very specifically refers to sporting both a penis and vagina, so it's also inaccurate.
- "Intersex" is also vague, and while technically "hermaphrodite" and "intersex" both can refer to a masculine-appearing individual, "herm" in erotica typically refers to feminine-appearing characters.
Futa as a general description of "born-female-but-has-a-dick" characters can thus cover hermaphrodites, whatever Jade and other "futas without a vagina" are, and other... niche types like "growing a penis out of the vagina on demand" ala Bible Black.
...anyways.
Whew, animations. Exciting! Ashley looked higher quality to me during the bathroom scene as well, but that might just be the makeup & sweat textures messing with me. I will point out that in the animation with the close-up of Jade's ass, Ashley's fingers are freaking out, which in turn drew my attention to Jade's hand hanging limp instead of grasping Ashley's thigh.
My Jade has zero pull-out game. I'm looking forward to literally every woman within three degrees of relation to Jade realizing they all got pregnant within a few months of her return only to be met with her shit-eating grin as she reminds them that they all got
exactly what they asked for.
I will note that I think the episodic nature of the game is hamstringing its ability to develop the right kind of tension. Serial releases are certainly not incompatible with good, high tension storytelling; the scene with the doctor with a closeted futanari supremacy kink had amazing sexual tension despite being a self-enclosed plot. There are good tension-building scenes with Jade and the various boys and girls she knows, but some of the sex scenes feel disconnected such that the tension doesn't climax and resolve with the sex. I think the slow build up for Ashley in prior episodes has been great so far, for example, but this episode starts with her showing up and jumping straight to sex with only a brief conversation affirming Ashley's feelings.
This should be a
huge moment for her; she's finally realizing a years-long crush that must have caused her a fair bit of stress given that the target of her affection was her estranged aunt. She should be excited to finally have this dream-come-true experience, but also majorly freaking out that she's going to be cheating on her boyfriend/fiance and having secret incestuous sex with her father's sister. We've had some scenes from the PoV of characters near Jade, so seeing her prepping for this meeting, psyching herself up in front of the mirror, smiling and fidgeting etc. would go a long ways towards informing us on her state of mind. Ashley finally stepping into the shower nude should also be a happy moment for Jade, who has been pushing Ashley to act on her feelings and make her fantasy a reality. I did like the "morning after" scene (esp. with the confirmation that Ashely enjoys the incest taboo), and it's certainly possible to have overly conversational sex scenes where characters are doing full monologues mid-coitus, but I know that improvement here is possible and only requires a little more time and attention, not writing talent. That's clearly present, or else I wouldn't be left feeling like I'm still sitting at the crest of a roller coaster.
So why focus on the episodic nature of the story, and what to do about it? I bring it up because I had the thought that Ashely's story and her first sex scene might feel more coherent if it was all one linear sequence rather than spaced out both in monthly releases and between other characters' scenes. Without a massive fundamental change to development and game structure however, there isn't much to be done there, hence my input in the prior paragraph regarding what I wanted to see from Ashley in her scene. A little more build up immediately before the sex to remind the reader of the emotional context at play and a little more interaction during the sex besides the usual "Oh fuck yeah make me yours" will go a long way to make these scenes more memorable. Some good examples in this game would be the very first sex scene with Evelyn, the aforementioned scene with the doctor, and last chapters scene with Sam. Common elements here are a focus on a kink (Evelyn's lust leading her to infidelity, the doctor's pride/ego being sacrificed in the pyre of her fetish for futa superiority, and Sam's surrender of his sexuality and his girlfriend in order to be further feminized and dominated), a strong buildup, and the characters in/directly giving their reaction to the kink during sex. A bad example that sticks out to me is the first scene with Jade's friend and his wife, which started strong with the progressive couple inviting a third into their sexual lifestyle only to be surprised by Jade's assertiveness in claiming authority in their own home, which is almost entirely dropped once the sex abruptly begins.

Grammatically correct but stiff. I think moving the point of that last sentence to the next line:
Blair said:
The best part is that you'll get to go to court hearings with me, and if you like it, it'll be great for your future career.
Would work well. Revised:

Loses the emphasis on the connection between "simple job=smaller pay" though. Alternatively:

Kinda surprised Jade didn't have any internal commentary on the fact that she's secretly banging Ashley's mom when Ashley asks her to not keep any more secrets? I can imagine that for the sake of the story it might not be an option to break the news now, but I think there should be some reaction from Jade there.
DOCTOR LADY MY BELOVED YOU'VE RETUR- is that Geralt??
Ohhh. "Jennifer" and "Garry." ffs
) but for what I know there isn't a label to categorize what she really is. Also the tag that is near the title of the game says Futa/Trans and protagonist and the same in the Genre in the OP because there isn't a totally correct tag. Besides that also clearly says " The game is primarily focused on lesbian and futa-on-female content, but also contains futa-on-male scenes" and never male/female-on-futa, indicating that Jade won't be in the receiving end
