Then Once in a Lifetime really just isn't your thing. For me, it hit my sense of humor right on the nose: To this day, I still have to chuckle to myself over Hippolas Cage. In fact, I did several times as I was writing this post. I actually think the Lewds actually play a rather minor role for most who like OiaL: For me at least, besides the humor and memorable characters (Stabby Mike is pretty much the best recurring supporting character in a VN for me), it's the completely ridiculous and over-the-top situations the characters find themselves in again and again. A welcome distraction, so to speak, from a world that is completely batshit crazy, but not nearly as amusing as OiaL's. But as I said, everyone has their own taste, I for example like Brussels sprouts and others make gagging noises when they hear it, like a cat about to throw up a huge ball of fur.
