Yeah, can't think of a good introduction, so lets get into business.
Story: 4 Solid Bananas out of 5
Thot on Trial goes on a simple premise: Netorare, and does not fail to deliver an experience faithful to the original Japanese definition.
The problem is that this is very niche so it's not an enjoyable experience for everyone...Why would you enjoy this btw, whats wrong with you?
Jokes aside, the plot works, no matter how unbearable it may seem.
Characters: *404*
After giving some thought to this department, considered the only appropiate score to these characters was absolutely zero stars.
The main male character is as bland and tasteless as a bowl of overcooked rice, in certain cultures he would have been put out of his misery as soon as he left the cosmic furnace and its impossible that he could have married such a hottie.
The main female character is literally a piece of meat surrounding a vagina. If marrying a stripper is a bad idea, marrying someone like her is 100% worse. She'll simply take everything you worked so hard to buy in a divorce and move on to ruin the next fool.
Both are as wide and deep as a pond, and their "relationship" is meaningless, feels like they met each other 5 minutes ago.
Of course I wasn't expecting novel-like character development, but bear this in mind, NTR characters should make you feel something similar to betrayal, so you should feel some kind of empathy for the victim...Here you'll only get angry for how dumb and shallow they are.
Anna is great honestly, sad she's a support character since she's a solid 4 stars on her own.
Mechanics: 2 Resting Bananas out of 5
No puzzles or minigames, good.
Your choices and those +/- stats are worthless, Very bad.
Don't get fooled, this is a kinetic novel, which should not be bad, the problem happens when you sell the "illusion of control" of the narrative to the user and in reality there is none.
Content: 4 Solid Bananas out of 5
There's enough scenes, some are actual plot devices but anyway, the replay gallery serves its purpose.
In most scenes, you won't have control of the actions happening on screen.
Ending: 2 Resting Bananas out of 5
The whole season is a great set-up for the second season, but it feels too short.
Thot on Trial is...Something, and surely it has its fans...I'm not one of them.
But, strictly speaking, it fails to deliver a good experience because its main characters fail to make us feel the most basic form of empathy and are about as likable as slug soup, if I could get in this visual novel, I would do it to give both of them a good dose of .45HP straight in the chest, to take Him out of his misery and to save the good souls left out there, from Her.
